Chapter 51: Fierce Showdown, Kilgaru Throws in the Defeat?
"Take it, outsider! Darkblade! β
Odella made a proclamation full of fighting spirit and took the lead in attacking Kilgaru, and her slender and beautiful figure disappeared in an instant.
"What a terrible speed!"
Kilgaru couldn't help but exclaim inwardly. After the dark elves fused their spirit with the forest, the entire forest was like a strengthened barrier that could improve all aspects of their physical fitness, and it would be impossible to see their actions without using magic to enhance their vision. Therefore, it can be quite difficult to defeat the dark elves in hand-to-hand combat in this forest.
"Got it!"
The twin swords struck Kirgaru's back like a cold light, and Audrey smiled smugly.
"Don't rejoice too soon."
Kirgaru took a small step forward unhurriedly, perfectly dodging Audella's attack.
Just as Audrey was surprised, Kilgaru spun around and unleashed a roundhouse kick that threw Audella's body back as soft as wicker, the autumn wind sweeping the leaves across her head, only raising her long silver hair like soft light.
The two men who had dodged each other's attacks retreated at the same time, and continued to confront each other after a certain distance.
"I wanted to give you a dismount, but I didn't expect you to have a hand and be able to see through my martial arts."
Audrey's voice was mixed with two contradictory emotions of loss and admiration, and she said to Kilgaru.
"Because I can use martial arts similar to yours."
Kilgaru's tone was still quite calm, yes, the "Dark Blade" used by Audrey was very similar to Aceres's "Shadow Kill", both of which were moves that instantly strengthened the muscles to increase the speed and go around the opponent's back.
It's just that "Dark Blade" is faster than "Shadow Kill" in terms of speed, and even if you know that she will appear behind you, you can't grasp the specific location.
The reason why Kilgaru was able to dodge at this moment was not because his empty eyes had caught Audella's movements, but because he had unleashed his magic to perceive.
The rules of this contest are that magic cannot be used, and although it is not said that magic cannot be released, Kilgaru's behavior is still suspected of cheating.
Of course, the magic that Kilgaru unleashed around him was mixed in the air, and it only covered a hundred meters around him, making it imperceptible to the dark elves who were not well-versed in modern magic.
"I'm going to give it my all!"
Audrey closed her eyes and took a deep breath, and when she opened her eyes again, her eyes were completely different from before, and the original watery and lovely eyes cast the light unique to a battle-hardened warrior, and black marks like tattoos appeared on the purple-red skin of her body.
Along with this change, the surrounding Dark Elves cheered at the same time, as if their princess had won the contest.
The changes that happened to Audrey surprised Kilgaru to the point of violating the rule that he could not use magic.
As long as you don't use magic to attack, it shouldn't matter if you use magic to scout. Kilgaru quibbled inwardly as he used the magic "Spotter Eye" and "Status Monitor." β
The forces of nature flow from all over the forest into Odella's legs, and if the forces of nature are considered magic, the total amount of magic that can draw power from the entire forest may be greater than that of Kilgaru.
"Dark elves are terrifying! But you can't beat me by relying on martial arts! β
Although I have a trace of admiration for this mysterious ancient tribe in my heart, since I want to borrow the other party's holy relics, I must not be looked down upon by the other party. Therefore, Kilgaru wants to show his strength no matter what.
Audrey, whose speed has been increased by an astonishing amount, unleashes a speeding attack towards Kilgaru that is indistinguishable to the naked eye. And Kilgaru also used "disguise" to change into the holy relic "Eternal Night Suit", expanding the perception range of magic power by five times, and then defusing the opponent's attack through "nihilization" and "teleportation".
The figures of the two disappeared in front of everyone, and only the sparks from the collision of metal fell in the air.
The dark elves who had been cheering instantly became silent, and although they could feel that the two were engaged in a fierce battle in the field in front of them, they could not see anything, and this speed was too shocking.
Although Marosas, who was an undead, didn't need to breathe, he also gasped at this time, because even if he used magically enhanced vision, he could only see two blurred figures.
Standing beside Marosus, Afilo closed his eyes and prayed with his hands folded, his mouth constantly saying, "Audrey is such a mess!" That sounds like an angry word.
Others may be amazed at the changes in Audella, but Afilo, the number one warrior of the Dark Elves, is full of worries at the moment. Because now Audrey is using a super powerful move that is unique to the Dark Elves and is listed as a forbidden art.
This powerful move, named "Primal Awakening", can greatly increase one's abilities with the help of the power of nature, but there is a great price to pay for using this power that does not belong to oneself.
If you let the power of nature merge into your whole body, you can instantly reach the realm of the gods with your own power, but the consequence is death.
In the entire Dark Elf clan, the only people who can use the forbidden move of "Primal Awakening" are the Dark Elf King Israel and the First Warrior Afeiro. I didn't expect Audrey to learn it without being taught, which shows how amazing her talent is.
Although her "Primordial Awakening" can only increase her speed, and does not cause death like the real "Primordial Awakening", it can also cause a huge load on her legs, and may cripple her legs as a result.
After a minute of this exciting battle that could only be felt but not seen, the two reappeared in front of everyone.
Audella's fierce ups and downs can be seen that this kind of speeding duel has exhausted her. But on the other hand, Kilgaru's form doesn't seem to have changed in the same way as he did before the fight.
Of course, this has something to do with the fact that he is an immortal and does not have the limitation of physical strength. But more importantly, during the duel with Audèri, Kilgaru used the "Eternal Night Suit" to keep his body in a state of "virtualization".
Although the "Void" state greatly increases the damage dealt by magic, it is completely immune to physical attacks, which is why Kilgaru said that he cannot be defeated by using martial arts.
"How so, why didn't my attack have an effect on him?"
Audrey, who sensed this during the match, muttered to herself, although her physical strength had reached its limit, and it would be very dangerous to continue to use the "Original Awakening", her self-esteem would never allow her to admit defeat.
"Audella! Don't fight any more! β
Seeing that Audrey, who had reached the limit, still did not lift the state of "primordial awakening", Afilo shouted anxiously, and the strong worry in his heart had made him call the other party by name instead of paying attention to the courtesy of the monarch and ministers.
"I'm just getting started!"
Audrey gritted her teeth and forced.
"It's so capricious!"
Afilo adjusted his breathing to keep up with the forest, and if Audrey continued to fight, he was ready to stop him.
However, at this moment, a calm, undulating voice sounded.
"My weapon is broken, it's me who lost!"
Kirgaru lifted the sword he had borrowed from the Dark Elves, the blade was covered with gaps, and only half of it remained.
Everyone looked at Kilgaru, as if they didn't understand what was going on.
So Kirgaru spoke loudly to the crowd again.
"I throw in the towel! I will compensate for this sword. β
Then, fierce cheers erupted again, and the unknown dark elves celebrated their princess's victory.
Only Audrey, who sat on the ground because of her weakness, looked ashamed, and Afilo, who stepped forward to help, threw a grateful look at Kilgaru.
