Chapter 284: Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [55]

Chapter 284. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [55]

Only five minutes left until the girls would get out of the hot spring.

For me, who had swung a sword for more than a billion years, it was such a short time that would pass in the blink of an eye.

However,

「HAAAAAA!」

「NUOOOO!」

Now that I was caught between two of the world’s best swordsmen, those five minutes felt like forever.

「Damn…」

My body was carved with a number of sword wounds and red-black bruises.

(Endure, endure…)

These wounds are only temporary, after all.

When the battle is over, I can heal it with darkness immediately.

(The only thing I have to do right now is to protect Ria from being peeped on! To achieve that, I just have to protect this mop from breaking!)

For that purpose, I will attack with all my heart!

「I won’t lose yet! Sixth Sword – Dark Roar!」

The Dark Roar that I unleashed with all my strength bared its fangs.

「Kuh, you still have this much power, huh…」

「You just won’t fall, will ya?」

Sebas-san and Bacchus-san interrupted their attacks temporarily and focused on cutting down the Dark Roar.

I took advantage of the short moment when their attacks stopped.

「Eighth Sword – Yatagarasu!」

「Kuh!」

「Nuu!」

Sebas-san and Bacchus-san deflected the eight slashes, and took half a step back.

(That’s exactly what I was aiming for!)

The two are now hesitant.

After deflecting Yatagarasu, instead of immediately counterattacking, they took half a step back.

This is definitely because of my previous “brutal counter” called Hazy Moon.

(Sebas-san and Bacchus-san don’t know if I have any more cards up my sleeve.)

Actually, I had no more cards left up my sleeve.

However, only I knew that fact.

From their perspective, it would seem like I might still have some hidden cards.

(The strongest tactic when playing cards – “Bluff”!)

I went on the offensive in order to make them wary of the “non-existent trump card” and prevent them from realizing that I was “out of cards”.

(Because there lies the threat of a “counter”, Sebas-san and Bacchus-san cannot launch a drastic attack!)

Therefore, I must never go on the defensive.

If I want to stall for time, I have to keep pressing forward with a fearless smile!

(And I’m getting used to it little by little.)

Sebas-san’s Absolute Sword and Bacchus-san’s Sakura-Blossom One-Sword Style.

While watching their techniques and movements many times, I gradually became more efficient in responding to them.

(I can understand. I can see it. Their breathing rhythm, the movement of their muscles!)

Because we were all fighting half-naked, I was able to clearly observe the “muscle movements” of Sebas-san and Bacchus-san.

The eyes speak more than the mouth.

Similarly, the body speaks more than the sword.

By looking at their muscle movements, I can see the “movement of the sword” which is a few seconds in the future.

Thinking about it, this is like a “simulated battle” where I can learn a lot of lessons.

(Anyway, keep to this pace! If I continue at this pace, I’ll be able to pass the remaining time!)

In this way, I was steadily advancing to the path of victory step by step while grasping a certain feeling of growth.
