131 – Strange experience of the dark island 5

Looking at the opponent in front of his eyes, a serious smile bloomed on Andersen’s lips.

‘He’s the one who fought against the White Dragon Princess… I wonder how good his skills will be…’

It was Andersen who had been stuck against numerous enemies and experienced various victories and defeats.

However.. no matter how many defeats he suffered, he has been victorious against everyone in the end, and as a result, he has been able to rise to this very position as the strongest in the empire.

However, there was only one existence that even he could not do anything about.

white dragon princess

Elios Noshelat Dragona.

The only being who has never been broken by his hands for the past ten years.

It was Andersen who went through endless troubles and training to try to beat her, but each time, the White Dragon Princess finally defeated his move and at the same time, it also pressured Andersen with a complicated yet new move.

The countless battles that followed.

Each time, the two have been aware that the other has become stronger each time, and in the end, they had no choice but to fully acknowledge each other’s skills and growth.

Literally, it means accepting the other person as one’s own rival.

In that respect, Andersen had no choice but to be quite sensitive to the story of the White Dragon Princess, even if no one else knew about it.

‘Especially surviving a battle with her… It means that she acknowledged that woman’s ability… or potential. Just like I did in the past…’

Even though it was possible enough in the first meeting, the white dragon princess did not end her own life.

Knowing that it was an expression of acknowledgment of the opponent’s strength was what I heard directly from her mouth during the battle afterwards.

And, Andersen also knew that no one had ever saved his life that way since then.

Except for that woman in front of me.

And this fact was fueling his interest in the woman named Ophelia, whom he was already interested in.

Andersen stares calmly at the opponent in front of him in such deep anticipation.

Even though it was a simple sparring, since I roughly knew the opponent’s strength, I had no intention of doing it in moderation.

‘Even if you don’t live, doing your best is quite possible for those who have reached our level. try it somewhere How much of your skills the White Dragon Princess acknowledged…!’

That moment.

-visor!-

Andersen swung his sword swiftly at the sudden presence.

Immediately after that, surprise and interest began to dwell in his eyes at the same time.

‘Is this… an invisible attack…?’

A sharp blow that comes in with a sangchae that can’t be caught at all.

Even the opponent in front of me was just holding a sword and not showing any action.

‘Surprising.. If it wasn’t for me, it was an attack I would have suffered. By the way… it seems that the other side also had no intention of doing anything in moderation in the first place.’

Ophelia is unleashing an unrelenting attack from the first move.

In the first place, it wasn’t like simple sparring that could only condense and strengthen the body, but a game where you didn’t have to kill or inflict a fatal wound on your opponent.

There was no reason whatsoever to complain about it.

Rather, from the start, Andersen began to feel even a little pleasure in the opponent’s ability to make an admirable attack in this way.

-visor!-

Immediately after that, Andersen deflects another incoming attack.

Even though it was invisible, it was not that difficult to locate it by scattering magic around it in a situation where you knew that an attack would come.

‘The surprise you know is just a simple trick. Then… Since I showed you an interesting number, would you like to return it?’

Immediately after that, Andersen begins to use the mana that surrounds his body in earnest.

“!”

At the same time, Ophelia slightly lowered her expression and automatically began to frown.

That would be too. What she sees right now…

“..many.”

The shapes of swords made of magical power that looked like countless stars in the night sky.

The tips of them pointed exactly where Ophelia was standing.

And..

-bang!-

Loud explosions heard at the same time as countless swords flew

Due to the aftermath of a tremendous attack in an instant, the place generated a shock as if dozens of shells had fallen rather than swords poured out.

It was a tremendous blow that would not have been able to break even the bones of a decent opponent.

But. Nevertheless, Andersen rather looked straight ahead with cold eyes, holding his sword in his hand.

And..

-Pat!-

‘Also..’

-visor!-

Ophelia rushes through the dust in an instant.

Seeing her unscathed despite such an attack, Andersen began to feel a bit of danger in addition to admiration once again.

‘No matter how hard I thought there wouldn’t be a single scratch.. In that short moment, did you completely evade…or did you succeed in defending? At this level, I should already be one step ahead of Isaac.’

While measuring the opponent’s strength in real time, Andersen strongly pushed away her hand that was pushing him.

“Chit..”

Ophelia clicked her tongue slightly while watching Andersen, who easily blocked the surprise attack that followed the attack.

The other side also seemed to recognize that they had met a stronger enemy than they could have imagined.

“I see… quite strong. You’re still young, but you’ve already reached this level. It’s amazing.”

“… .”

Ophelia straightens the sword again without saying anything to Andersen’s praise.

In response, Andersen also hardened his expression again and corrected his posture.

And..

-CHIJIJIJIJI!!!-

Two people facing each other.

Immediately after that, sparks began to fly from their swords, which were imbued with tremendous magic power due to condensation.

And..

-grasp!-

Almost at the same time, the two of them pushed back the opponent’s sword and were instantly pushed back.

However, in that state, Ophelia instantly reversed the recoil and swung the sword straight at Andersen.

-visor!-

However, in response to this, Andersen quickly changed his posture and deflected Ophelia’s sword.

On the surface, it was simply exchanging sword strikes, but considering the physical laws, this was an excessively fast attack and defense that completely ignored inertia.

These were movements that could not be accomplished without perfect mastery of magic, the power to distort the laws of nature.

Immediately after that, the battle started again, and the battle was so fast that it was invisible to the naked eye.

At some point, the thought that this was sparring no longer entered their heads.

wield a sword

accept this

At the same time, aiming for the gap created like that, he stabbed an attack.

An attack to defeat an opponent who did not contain the slightest hesitation.

And it is blocked by the opponent’s defense, which is immediately connected, and loses its power in the middle and is cut off.

‘Strong… Really… Strong…’

Ophelia cuts off her attacks and tries to counterattack again.

The series of movements were made so naturally as if water was flowing, and Andersen also responded by knocking out the opponent’s counterattack in the same way that was imprinted on his body.

And at the same time, there is one more thing that surprises Andersen even in this tight battle.

-visor!-

A slightly deflected attack.

It was… the invisible sword of this woman who had been endlessly trying to sneak in from earlier.

A blow that pierces one’s rear end if one forgets it.

This created the effect of exposing the gaps on this side while repeatedly dispelling Andersen’s attempts to break through Ophelia’s defense and proceed with the attack.

‘At first, I thought it was a simple trick, but I never thought it would hold onto my ankles to this extent… Continuing this attack will certainly consume a considerable amount of mental and magical power, but is it possible to use it to this extent?’

Although each step is not strong, it constantly inflicts an attack that can never be ignored, distracting the other party’s mind.

To put it badly, it was a very annoying attack, but in other words, it also meant that the opponent’s mental capacity was so great.

‘If this happens… um… I don’t feel like it, but do I have to use it?’

Andersen begins to consider even using the spleen shroud.

However, no matter how much you think about it, using it in Dalian, which is not even a real battle, is too advanced.

It was too much of an overkill to write something that could really cause problems in the current situation.

And crucially, even though he is being checked from time to time, it was not a situation where Andersen was not particularly pushed.

-Chijijijik!-

“Kuh..”

Andersen, who is under considerable attack, does not waver like a solid mountain.

As a result, Ophelia’s face began to show a little nervousness, and Andersen did not miss it.

And..

-Chaeeng!-

“!”

In the next moment, Andersen shows a little bit of a gap.

Accordingly, Ophelia hit it without delay and came inside, and at the same time, a slight smile began to form on Andersen’s lips.

At the same time as she is aiming for an opening, attacking from the side of her.

It was a magical sword created by Andersen.

‘great. with this… !’

A blow inflicted at the moment when the opponent’s attention is focused.

Taking advantage of the fact that beasts are most defenseless when they are aiming for prey, the attack flew straight toward Ophelia.

By the way..

-Ting!-

“!”

“Chit..”

Contrary to Andersen’s expectation that it would definitely be eaten, Ophelia twists her body in an instant and bounces it off.

However, immediately after that, a short voice filled with regret flowed from her mouth.

The reason is that..

“… .”

‘..it didn’t work very well… no.’

The next moment Andersen sees a wound on Ophelia’s forearm and red blood flowing from it.

Although the defense was successful, it was the result of a very slight delay in timing.

And, to be injured to that extent in this type of confrontation meant defeat.

“..was lost.”

“Ummm..”

A sad ending in many ways.

Rather than a difference in skill, I feel strongly that it was the result of a little bit of luck.

In response, Andersen felt quite uncomfortable even after winning, and accepted Ophelia’s defeat with a nod.
