"What's wrong?"

"What's going on?"

"Someone fighting?"

"Who? What a loud sound! ”

At this moment, the entire people in the Dusk Pavilion were shocked by the sudden sound of swords and halberds.

"In the atrium!"

As someone shouted such a sentence, all the people staying in the Pavilion of Dusk suddenly opened the windows around them in unison, or ran to a place where they could see the atrium and looked outside.

Among them are Finn, Riveria, Grace, and Loki in the office, as well as Diona, Tionne, and Refia, who are de-petrified, while gossiping with a group of female members.

"What's the noise?"

Even Bert, who had a fierce face and was obviously in a bad mood, was alarmed, and poked his head out of his room to look at the atrium.

At this look, everyone froze their faces.

"That's ...... Mr. Rieger and Miss Ace? ”

Refia's little head was huddled with the cat-man girl Angel and the elven big sister Arithea, looking at the two central characters who had just appeared in the atrium, and their delicate little faces were surprised and stunned.

Even the cat-man girl Angel and the elf's big sister Arisia are like this.

"The two are fighting?"

"Good, what a fierce sword dance!"

Yes.

At this moment, Rig and Ace are fighting in the atrium.

And, the fight was very intense.

…………

Just when the members of the entire Loki clan began to talk about the gossip of the two of them, Riege, who had come to the atrium, suddenly stopped and said this.

"Do you want to practice?"

This is a sentence that Ace has said to Rieg more than once.

Back in the day, when Rieger's level was not high and his strength was still very weak, Ace would often ask Rig like this and help Rig exercise.

Especially when Rig was upgrading, Ace would make this offer every time.

The reason is also very simple, because every time Rig upgrades his body, he will become very uncoordinated, and due to the rapid increase in strength, it will cause subtle sensory errors between the body and mind, resulting in a mismatch between body and mind.

Therefore, every time he leveled up, Lig would ask Ace to train with him, adjust his feelings through fierce battles, let his spirit keep up with the rapidly rising power, and adjust his body and mind.

This state of affairs even lasted until Rig was promoted to Lv. 5 and left this world.

In other words, before Lv.6, it was Ace who had been helping Rieg to learn her magic, learn her sword skills, and adapt to her strength, adjust her body and mind, and eliminate the incongruity of her body through sparring with her.

Similarly, it is also for this reason that Ace, who has a deep understanding of the inhuman growth of Rigna, will be stimulated, and she has not made progress for a period of time and has reached a bottleneck, so this blonde and golden-eyed female swordsman will finally be induced by her inner obsession and make the adventurous decision to go deep into the 37th floor of the dungeon at all costs and go head-to-head with the floor master Udaios.

Fortunately, the result was good, Ace successfully defeated the floor master Udaios and rose to Lv.6, allowing her "instrument" to grow again, entering a new stage and radiating new potential.

In the process of chatting with Ace, Li Ge also keenly discovered that Ace, like herself at the beginning, is currently a little uncoordinated and uncomfortable in all aspects.

This girl has just been promoted to Lv.6, and although several days have passed, she has no intention of going to the dungeon in the past few days, let alone exercising, so that the physical and mental discomfort during the upgrade has continued until now and has not improved.

Seeing this, Rig immediately took Ace to the atrium and proposed to her to practice as she had done with herself in the past.

“…… May I? ”

Although Ace was a little surprised by this, she was not surprised, but only hesitated.

No way.

Before the upgrade, Ace was once caught up by Rieger, who was promoted to Lv.5, and her strength once lagged behind Riege, and was comprehensively surpassed by Rieger.

But now, Ace has also leveled up, from Lv.5 to Lv.6.

Now her strength is far beyond her previous self, even if her body and mind are still a little uncoordinated, she can easily suppress several Lv.5 first-level adventurers.

In such a situation, Ace surpassed Riege, who had just been promoted to Lv.5, and her strength was once again above Rig at that time.

In this way, once the two start training, there is a high chance that something will go wrong.

After all, Ace is now physically and mentally uncoordinated, and if she accidentally shoots too hard during sparring, she is likely to hurt Riege.

At least, that's what Ace was worried about.

However, such Ace did not know that what seemed to her was nothing more than a few days of separation, in fact, here in Rige, about a year and a half had passed.

Now he can't compare himself to when he was first promoted to Lv.5.

The blonde-haired and golden-eyed female swordsman didn't know that the young man standing in front of her was no longer the fledgling Lv.5 he had been.

Today, Rig is Lv.7!

No one knew that Lv.7, where there was only one person in the entire Eulari, was already in second place!

"Don't worry." Li Ge walked to the opposite side of Ace by himself, and slowly pulled out the sword of the fool at his waist, and said with a smile: "I haven't been wasting my time outside these days, if you think that the current me is still the same as before, then it will suffer a big loss, right?" ”

Hearing this, Ace quietly held her breath.

If someone else said something like that, Ace wouldn't take it too seriously.

It's only a few days, so what can change big?

But Rige is not among them.

Take a look at what he's accomplished so far.

In 7 days, he went from Lv.1 to Lv.2.

In 15 days, he went from Lv.2 to Lv.3.

In 30 days, he went from Lv. 3 to Lv. 4.

In 45 days, he went from Lv.4 to Lv.5.

In just 97 days, a little more than three months, he has grown rapidly from an ordinary person who has never received the favor of God to a first-level adventurer at Lv.5, and he is not an ordinary first-level adventurer.

For such a Liger, even if it is only a few days, there is a possibility of rapid growth.

Seeing that Li Ge was holding the sword of the fool that he was reluctant to use often during the expedition, standing in front of him so casually, for some reason, Ace slowly felt a suffocating pressure.

(He's getting stronger again.) ）

Ace, who didn't know what kind of changes had occurred in Riege's body, could only hold her breath, concentrate, and silently pull out the sword of despair at her waist.

The two looked at each other, and then, as if they had a heart in their hearts, they looked in the mirror, and at the same time raised their swords and pointed at each other.

"Whew-"

A gust of wind just came from the outside of the Dusk Pavilion, swaying the girl's blonde hair and skirt, and making the boy's black hair sway.

A solemn atmosphere permeated the entire atrium.

And then......

"Huh!"

In the sound of breaking wind, the two figures disappeared in place at the same time, appeared in the middle position, and swung the sword in their hands towards the opponent opposite.

"Boom!"

The loud sound of the sword halberd resounded throughout the Dusk Pavilion at this moment, alarming everyone.

At this time, Rieg and Ace had already entered a fierce battle.

"Qiang Qiang-"

With the incessant sound of weapons colliding, countless sword lights and slashing lights appeared in front of the young girl and girl, enveloping each other like a storm.

Rig and Ace entered the state almost instantly, and as soon as they fought, they exploded in full force, unfolding an incomparably sharp and incisive sword dance, making the crystal-crystal clear long sword and the silver-white saber collide continuously, almost dozens of times in a second.

The two first-level weapons that also had incorruptible attributes kept paddling silver trajectories, blooming with cold arc light while cutting through the atmosphere, attacking and defending each other fiercely.

Such a fierce sword dance, which was rarely seen even in the battle between first-level adventurers, made all those who poked their heads out of the Pavilion of Dusk and saw this scene freeze their faces.

All of a sudden, the sword light staggered, the silver light flashed, and the two blades that couldn't stop swinging at a speed that the naked eye couldn't catch up with were building a storm of slashing in unison, either slashing to the opposite side, being bounced off by the opposite side, or bounceing off the opposite slash, and then counterattacking, deducing a shocking confrontation.

Rig and Ace also began to dodge and move, running in the atrium of the Pavilion of Dusk with a speed that ordinary first-level adventurers could not catch up with at all, either chasing each other or colliding with each other, so that the afterimages of the two of them appeared everywhere mixed with the howling wind.

The fierce sword dance went on for a certain moment, and the battle situation quietly changed.

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, the remnant of the image of Rig appeared in a concrete form, kicked on the sword of despair that Ace hastily erected, and burst out with amazing force, knocking Ace back.

"Beware!"

Looking at Ace who retreated again and again, Li Ge smiled slightly, suddenly bullied up, and once again slashed out a continuous sword light.

This time, the sword light that Li Ge slashed out was faster, more urgent, and sharper than before, so that after Ace blocked a few times, there was an unstoppable tendency, and she was accidentally slashed by a sword light in front of her forehead, cutting off several hairs.

"You ......"

Ai jumped backwards without hesitation, and used a few neat backflips to distance himself from Riguera, and the look in Rige's eyes changed.

"Your sword skills ......"

Ace saw the clue.

"It's not the same as before, is it?"

Rig smiled at a surprised Ace and said this.

Ace nodded silently.

Li Ge's sword skills are indeed different from before.

The previous Lige's sword skills were actually Ace's sword skills.

His sword skills were all learned from Ace's body, so his sword skills were exactly the same as Ace's sword skills, and it could even be said that there was no difference.

But today, Rieger's sword skills are no longer the same as Ace's.

It was a sword technique that was unfamiliar to Ace.
