The army of players slowly dwindled and with that, many players who decided to escape also increased. After realizing that the two of us are too much to handle, most of the players who are fighting us decided to escape instead, afraid of dying in our hands as Tsuru and I would not hesitate to end them before they can strike us, leaving with only a few players who are still confident to battle against us though the one who is more confident to fight us is none other than Kaisar himself.
"I thought I am just seeing things but to think we would face once more, Bladeheart," Kaisar is not looking happy while approaching as he slowly pulls out his Magic Sword.
"Why not? Isn't it a good chance for us to talk with each other?"
"No. I was merely holding back last time during the Battle for Blood so you got lucky that you have defeated me. No, you and Sigma just tagged teamed with each other before defeating me, which is unfair for me who is fighting fair and square. I should have won that battle and secured the victory without any problems at all!"
"Bullsh*t, even if I was not there, you wouldn't win against Sigma that easily. With the way, you fight last time, it's not even a wonder you are dead before you can even strike seriously."
"Heh, that was me back then. Now that I have leveled up and geared up, I will make sure that this battle will be my win. This is my time to shine and this is my time to defeat the person who is being labeled as one of the best players. For the sake of my own fame, you need to die and fail this quest of yours. The Rebellion is futile."
I assumed a battle stance with my Versatile Weapon ready.
"Tsuru, I will handle this. You can take care of the others instead."
Tsuru nodded and lured the others away from us. All that is left is me and Kaisar, both in a battle stance mode. Staring at each other, waiting for the other to strike first. But because I am not a patient, I took the first action first and immediately pulled the Pain Delivery out of the holster and shot out one bullet to Kaisar who didn't expect the bullet to run past him. I shot one more bullet and he deflected it with his sword and this made him pissed.
"Who the f*ck brings a gun in a sword fight?!" then proceed to charge towards me and swing his sword down with electricity running on his blade.
"Obviously, me. After all, you can't win with just swords and magic alone."
BAM!
Our swords collide and I can see in his face the anger he has been keeping on himself.
"I will unmask you here and now. I will make sure you will not survive this one."
"Just shut up and fight. Stop talking."
One of the main problems with Kaisar is that he talks a lot. The typical guy who likes to tell threats to make himself stronger.
After a few seconds of trying to overpower me, I shoved him and made a little bit of distance from him before shooting out [Fireball] at him. Instead of dodging and evading all of my magical attacks, he decided to catch them all by blocking them with his sword. After my barrage of magic spells, his entire body started glowing purple and the electric arcs started to cover his body.
It's one of the electric element skills of the Magic Knight, [Voltage Body] which allows the user to move around at lightning speed for the duration of the skill which is 2 minutes. It's one of the hardest to counter skills unless you have some skill to hold that person off, you will have to endure and hold out on it.
"[Ice Prison]!"
Countless of ice started to pop out from his feet but Kaisar was quick and catching him immediately was not easy. Before my [Ice Prison] can catch him, he slashes to my side, damaging me for a decent amount before he disappears again and started moving around to stop me from catching him up.
Kaisar realized that I can't easily catch up to his speed and once he found out about it, he immediately abused it and started attacking me after disappearing because he was too fast, and I am not able to properly defend myself.
He hoped that my Hp would whittle down as he strike but it ended up failing as not only did I end up remaining standing, he only whittled at least half of my health only. As soon as the skill duration ended, I immediately managed to catch up to what he was doing and before he can react, the Versatile Weapon in its Hook and Chain form appeared right in front of his face and got pulled right next to me.
"Peek-a-boo!"
"What the f*ck?!"
I immediately delivered a big punch to his face after immediately transforming the Versatile Weapon into a Knuckles and punched him hard in the face, sending him flying into the distance. And as soon as he was launched into the distance, I immediately activated my Flight and bolted right next to him, and kicked him sending him flying away again. But this time, he managed to regain his footing by using his sword to hold him firmly to the ground and stopped him from going further.
"Now, you've done it. I am not gonna hold back now. You are dead to me!"
He pulled the sword out of the ground and charges forward in my direction while yelling. He is losing it.
"Looks like it's time to end this, no?"
"DIE!"
I calmly predict his movement and just like in the past, his movement has not changed at all. And as soon as he charged forward, I changed my Versatile Weapon's form into a Katana and immediately performed a slash to him before putting the Versatile Weapon back into its sheath.
"Now you are dead. [Decapitation]."
Kaisar walked a few steps forward before his head came flying off and his body fell down to the ground. Because he didn't heal up the previous damage that he received from my previous blows, the [Decapitation] was too strong and it ended up immediately killing him. He fell down like some kind of Samurai who failed to launch an attack after getting a surprise slice that his neck didn't expect. The result was expected, he was killed by decapitation.
Once I defeated Kaisar, new info appeared before me, revealing that the Siege attack failed and the defense of the village won, which means we won the battles. Seeing the result, the other players that Tsuru didn't manage to kill just shook their heads and decided to leave. After all, they failed to defeat us and as a result, the quest ends up failing for them. There is no need for us to continue the fight.
Tsuru fell down to the ground and sighed as the fight ended and we won.
"Holy sh*t... we actually won? I couldn't believe it..." Tsuru seems to have yet to fully comprehend as we won against a whole group of players trying to attack the village, which resulted in this ending where only the two of us remained standing after we attacked.
"Heh, did you get too overwhelmed? Anyways, good work out there, here, catch."
Tsuru stood back up and immediately catches the item I have thrown at him. He then realized it was a bottle of Potion of Full Restoration Juice and he was shocked to see it in his hands as this item is a luxury to get.
"You deserved the reward, take it."
"AAAAAAHHHHH! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! IT'S MY HONOR FOR FIGHTING ALONGSIDE WITH YOU AND IT'S ALSO AN HONOR FOR ME TO BE ONE OF THE LUCKY PEOPLE WHO RECEIVED A GIFT FROM YOU DIRECTLY! I WON'T FORGET THIS OPPORTUNITY IN THE FUTURE!"
I can only shake my head after seeing this. Although I appreciate it, the excessive amount of attention we received is not something I am familiar with. But still, being thanked profused like this made me appreciate it a little bit.

"F*CKING HELL!"
Kazuki throws the phone into the walls, completely shattering the whole phone to pieces. After receiving the replies from the players who participated in the raid their dismay at his leadership. This made him furious to the bone and his anger is overflowing.
Not only did he got defeated once, but he was also defeated twice now by the person he was trying to best. And yet, the guy easily defeated him. He even experienced for the first time in his life being beheaded. It was a very horrifying experience and now he is now sure what he needed to do next.
"Bladeheart...you messed too much of my life now. You needed to be taken care of, as soon as possible.
