Episode.89 Dreams and Battles and the Realm of the Other Side

Do you have any dreams?

In the shadow of the sword and sword, the picture of the past suddenly appeared in my mind.

It was a question that a female street performer had asked herself in the past.

The man was dressed in a loose-fitting coat that was old and smelled of dampness, and he had a somewhat torn hairpin on his head, and the shoulder straps of his guitar were slightly cracked, making him look like a beggar.

However, she has good skin, very fair, and her cherry red lips sing beautifully to the melody of the guitar.

She didn't behave like a beggar, but simply played the guitar and practiced every day on a street corner, singing, and earning tips from passers-by.

At that time, I couldn't understand why I wanted to sing on the street instead of singing on the TV stage, so instead of answering the other party's question, I asked back.

Why don't you sing on stage?

For this question, the person first showed a troubled expression, and then spoke

Because that's my dream, I won't sing on stage until it's done.

I didn't understand what the other party meant at all, but at that time, I still nodded thoughtfully and made a clear appearance.

That's also a stupid self-esteem, so I started passing by there every day after school.

Whether it's windy or rainy, that person will sing on the street corner without care, like a fantasy character in a fairy tale.

On rainy days, sing some cheerful songs to make people feel comfortable;

Sing some cool songs on sunny days to make people feel happy;

Different tunes bring different feelings. The existence of the lyrics is like a spell with great magical power. Make it unforgettable.

Besides. Every time Natsume passed by there, he was asked questions by the other party.

Do you have any dreams?

But at that time, I couldn't answer.

Buying a game console? That's not a dream.

Grow up? That's not a dream either.

He didn't know what he needed, he didn't know what he could get, and even when he was carefree as a child, he was still in a state of hesitation.

So, when that day, after that incident, Natsume, who passed there again, answered the question of the female artist.

My dream –

I want to be needed somewhere.

Thereupon. The dream collapsed, and everything was buried in darkness, leaving only infinite fear.

Do you have any dreams?

Even now, looking back, Natsume feels that she was very ridiculous at that time.

I don't have any dreams, and I don't want to dream about the so-called future.

Because what you have now is only now.

Left!

The blade formed by the flame of light in his left hand collided with the white sword, and the massive impact force bounced their arms apart.

It's all people who have two weapons, so after losing the instant attack of one weapon. Another weapon needs to be put to use. It's defense, it's attack. It's all up to your feelings.

Natsume's body burns with gold particles that resemble flames, and every step he takes produces a streamer that exerts a sense of oppression on Kirito.

The opponent's use of the second sword has become very proficient, and Natsume's only advantage is the ability of the sword in the lake.

The battle between the two in the hall had been going on for a minute, and each other's physical and mental strength had reached the limit, but neither of them had any intention of stopping, because they were more hungry for victory than anyone else.

What is the desired outcome? It's like creating it with both hands!

Natsume ran forward, and with this action, while pulling back his left hand that had bounced off, he used his right hand to slash Kirito's left arm with the sword of the lake attached to the wind enchantment.

The body moved backwards like a pull, and Kirito immediately adjusted during this time, and slashed at Natsume's chest with his right hand.

The weapons of the two collided on the way, and the force that vibrated the arm came again, and it never stopped, and because the left hand had recovered, Natsume directly carried out a series of slashes.

The high-speed slash directly forced Kirito back, and his movements began to slowly become smaller and restricted.

The next moment, Natsume suddenly switched from attack to defense and began to move to the rear to avoid it.

However, Kirito chased after him, and the swordsman of the second sword stream shouted loudly at Natsume.

"I have to win! That's the promise! So Natsume! Give it your all! ”

Therefore, Kirito's stunt was used in an instant in front of Natsume.

The sixteen consecutive hits of [Starburst Air Flow Slash] turned into the twin blades of infinite cutting blades and pressed towards Natsume.

With a smacking sound, Natsume brought the sword in his right hand back to him, and at the same time crossed the blade of light in his left hand to help resist.

Bang! The first blow was a double knife against a double knife, the splashing fireworks were terrifyingly large, and the terrifying impact was constantly forming in this space, and the death match between each other had begun to enter the final confrontation stage.

Natsume's left sword was directly broken by the opponent's horizontal slash, and seizing this opportunity, Kirito's other sword immediately stabbed over.

The sword in the lake turned, and the wind tornado immediately drove up, and the ferocious instant burst directly interfered with Kirito's attack, and in the midst of the fierce wind, his weapon shook and whispered.

It was an impact, relying on the containment of the wind tornado, the sword and the white sword in Natsume's lake collided again, but it was still Natsume who was bounced away.

That's where skills come in.

[Starburst Air Slash] will release all the 'power' through the continuous continuous slash of the two knives when used, uniting the attack power that was originally wasted due to interval slashing, and destroying the enemy's defenses by relying on continuous and tight high-speed chain slashes, which is also a tricky skill for Natsume.

After all, this is a specialized physical technique, not the kind of trick that is often encountered.

Natsume had only seen Kirito use it once, and he hadn't analyzed it in detail at that time, so he didn't quite understand his combat method of using [Starburst Air Flow Slash] at the moment.

Just to say, Natsume's instantaneous analysis ability is very powerful.

Attack on the left! A stab on the right! Combined Cross Chop!

The sword in the left hand resisted, and the sword in the right hand led, although he was forced to retreat, but he was not cut anywhere.

Kirito approached, and his cross-slash was unleashed by him.

The heavy blow came, and Natsume relied on the bend of his legs to support him, and grabbed Kirito's weakness while smashing the ground.

The moment he finishes his sixteen consecutive slashes, a gap will appear on the lower left side of his chest, and this is the condition for victory!

Natsume didn't hesitate, and advanced as Kirito retreated, and the lake sword in his right hand stabbed into the lower left corner of Kirito's defense.

"My ............ victory!"

Natsume saw a white shadow, and it was Asuna, who looked very weak between the two.

How to choose? On the other side of the line of sight of the two is defeat and victory.

So—

Pierce it with her! (To be continued......)
