Chapter 125
The distance between the Demon lord and I rapidly shrunk and our katanas clashed.
In that moment!
Vigilancemagic informed me ofDanger.
I was going to take the Demon lords katana head-on but hurriedly canceled it and switched into a parry.
I managed to parry the Demon lords powerful katana, changing its trajectory and barely dodging it.
But, the replica sword which was struck by the Demon lords katana,
had slightly chipped.
If I took it just like that, it would surely be broken.
The gap between our weapons is enormous
Afterwards, I continued to avoid the Demon lords attack one way or another.
But, for some reason, I cant move my body well.
With two superimposed spellMagic power reinforcementQuickandMagic power reinforcementMovement speed reinforcementraising my speed too high.
Thereby, with only moving normally, various problems have occurred.
First, the ground.
Whenever I step a foot forward, the ground under my foot will be hollowed out and disappeared if I didnt hardened my foothold withEarth magic.
It was as though running onmud.
Then, the air.
When I tried to move at high speed, the air coiled about my body. It was as though struggling in a starch syrup.
Lastly, my body.
The bones, tendons and muscles couldnt withstand the movement and were screaming.
Cant I do something about it with magic?
I hardened the ground using Earth magic.
I manipulated the earth by feeling similar to that of running with spiked shoes on the tartan tracks hard rubber for athletics.
I let the air flow smoothly according to my bodys movement withWind magic.
I manipulated the wind by lowering the prior atmospheric pressure to assist my bodys movements using the airs suction force instead of overwhelming my body with wind.
I strengthened my body usingBody reinforcement magic.
I strengthened the bones and tendons withEndurance reinforcementto withstand the movements,
and continued to steadily heal the piled up fatigue on the muscles usingStrength recovery rate reinforcement.
By being conscious of each properly, I was able to gradually improve my movements.
Earth magicis now Level 4.
Wind magicis now Level 5.
Body reinforcement magicis now Level 4.
Uwa!
Some of my magic leveled up in one go.
As expected, I level up quickly when fighting against powerful enemies.
What is it!?Your movements suddenly improved!?
Demon lord was also surprised that my movements are improving.
But, it cannot fill in the gap between our weapons ability.
Its exactly as the Demon lord says.
Because of the gap between our weapons, I cant take his katana with my katana and can only avoid it.
Cant I do something about this with magic as well?
While fighting, I usedAppraisalon myself to look for a breakthrough solution.
When I saw it suddenly,Earth magichad become level 4 and a new magic calledMetal controlwas now available.
Cant the impact during the moment when I receive the Demon lords katana be absorbed usingMetal controlthe same way as when I kick the ground?
But, the Replica sword will break if it fails.
Well, I will manage somehow.
The moment I received the Demon lords katana with the replica sword!
Like a shock-absorbing mat which an egg would not break even if it was dropped from a high place
I received the Demon lords sword with the Replica sword usingMetal control.
My Replica sword and the Demon lords sword
clashed with aguniyu.
The Demon lord was surprised at the unpleasant feeling and jumped back.
W-, What did you do!?What was that strange feeling?
Cmon, what do you think?
When I smiled broadly,
the Demon lord had a look of extreme hatred.
After that, our swords clashed for a while,
and *gunyu gunyu* sounds resounded.
What on earth is this? orz
Proper sword?I reached the point of being able to receive it and thanks to that, I could finally fight equally.
Sword Artis now Level 5.
I did it, Sword Art leveled up!!
Rather than a fight it had become a matter of skill.
I took a distance for a moment,
and after theReplica swordwas put back into the inventory,
theMithril swordwas taken out.
Why did you change your weapon!?
Iyaa, I was already proficient enough with the katana.
Youve been playing until now!!?
*Clank!*
My Mithril sword and the Demon lords katana clashed and a high-pitched metallic clank rang out.
The sound of battle must sound like that.
I agree on that as well.
After that, a good metallic clank reverberated with *clank clank* for a while.
Sword techniquesis now Level 5.
I did it!
Skill up is a success once again!
As expected, skills cant advance beyond this, huh.
Now then, play time is over.
Dont fool around!
Like that, Ive begun to overwhelm the Demon lord with Level 5Sword techniques.
What kind of bastard are you!?
Why did you become suddenly strong midway!
What? In spite of being the Demon lord, youre giving up now?
Thats right you bastard, it seems I underestimated you.
Its extremely quick.
I will take out my trump card as well.
If its the trump card!
Dangerous, I must put on asurprised appearance
W-, Whatt?
Its no wonder that youre surprised.
Now that youve seen this, die!
The next moment, at the same time as I withdrew by taking a step backward, in the place where Ive been
Lightingstruck.
Lightning!
I wonder if you looked surprised as well?
H-, How are you able to dodge it!!?
Huh?
The Demon lord was more surprised!
I was able to dodge it
because of theVigilancemagic, notifying of theDanger.
I knew that the Demon lord can useLightning magicin advance and I can also understand the timing usingVigilancemagic.
Afterwards, I only dodged it.
Information was the most important above all.
But, it was surprising that the Demon lord can useLightning magicas well.
What a lucky bastard.
The Demon lord cast lightning strike towards me 3 times but
I dodged all of it.
H-, How!!?
How!?How are you able to dodge my lightning!!!!?
The Demon lords MP seemed to hit rock bottom with the overuse ofLightning magicand fell on his knees.
Well then, I need to deal the finishing blow soon, huh.
