Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

Chapter 20 Steel Blades Never Bow Down 2



There were cases in which submissives who were driven by jealousy, fear, and desperation created skills to gain power in order to not be abandoned. While they regained their status, most eventually murdered their dominants and other submissives or committed suicide due to a myriad of reasons.

Hiro's skills were based on pride, wrath, and vision. In Artorius' mind, the danger he presented to Starfall couldn't be underestimated. If he gained more power, the odds that he will come back to get vengeance could be guaranteed. Hell, one of his limit skills is called [Wrath of the Vengeful]!

'FUCK, I need to kill him now, he is a threat I cannot allow to exist.'

Artorius then pulled his rapier out of its sheath and prepared for combat. The wind started swirling around him in visible currents, they were fast enough to make rushing sounds but slow enough to be visible. The husband of Starfall placed his rapier in front of him as torrents of energy coated the blade from tip to handle.

If anyone saw their fight people would think that Hiro was winning. Despite Hiro being the one who got smashed toward a nearby wall, Artorius had a stern face with his blade drawn. In the transmigrator's mind; however, he celebrated.

'FIFTY! FIFTY FUCKING TIMES! [Over the Limit] increases my power by 50 times, If I had a base stat of 40, I would have already tied up with you! If I beat you I gain stats even without leveling up! I am soooo smashing your face in the future you ikemen bastard! I even got one of your skills! COME! BRING IT!'

Hiro who only now looked up saw Artorius in a combat stance while strong winds were stirring around him ominously. The transmigrator noticed that the knight's sword no longer had its sheath but instead glowed with verdant energy. He then saw the presence of a gigantic lion-like monster made of wind beside the knight.

'Well shit, he went full chunni. A wind elemental against a level one mob? Really? This fucking sore loser.'

Suddenly however a female heroic voice resounded. "Get a weapon at least you moron! Here!"

Hiro looked to his right and saw a violet-skinned woman with a skull mask. She threw what looked like a longsword to him. Hopeful that he can even the odds at least with a weapon, the transmigrator tried to stand up in order to retrieve the fast-approaching weapon. With much difficulty, he caught it with his left hand.

"THANK YOU, RAYLENE! YOU ARE THE BEST!!" Hiro then moved into a sword stance. The masked woman only scoffed in response.

'A big move like that takes time to charge, like hell I will wait for you to finish! Here I come you fucker!'

As he began to attack the gale lion started roaring, and with it came wind blades to stop Hiro's assault. Being a complete noob at fighting, Hiro tried to slash the winds with the steel sword and failed miserably. The force of the torrents smashed into his body and threw him back a good distance.

A good side effect, however, is that the shit and piss coating him earlier dried up and cleared off him due to the chaotic winds. Once again finding himself slammed to the wall, Hiro vomited blood as he tried to stand up once more.

- Alert: Toughness [D] Lvl 2 has leveled up to Lvl 3 -

- Alert: Masochism [C] Lvl 1 has suppressed the shock response of the host's autonomic nervous system -

His increased pain tolerance continued to minimize the pain, but Hiro noticed his body approaching its limit, he couldn't keep this up for long. 'Haha, my body already wants to go into shock, I really am a masochist.'

- Warning: [Over the limit] ends in 30 seconds. Prepare for the rebound from stat deprivation. -

'Fuck! 30 seconds! It's now or never. I will never lose to you Artorius; with this sword, I will cut apart even wind if that is the only way to beat you!'

-Alert: Reality Defined: [There is nothing I cannot cut], Skill [Strength Derived from Pride] now allows sword strikes against incorporeal targets! -

'HELL YEAH! SYSTEM I LOVE YOU! LET'S DO THIS! WHO CARES WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?! I LIVE ONLY FOR THE NEXT 20 SECONDS!'

Artorius who finally finished charging, drew his sword arm back for a menacing attack. The gale lion then entered his rapier as the knight roared! The knight's words invoked the winds around him to gather!

"THIS ENDS NOW HIRO! SKILL [REGULUS FANG]!"

The winds all forcefully joined towards the tip of his sword. The power made the blade tremble to the point of shattering.

Artorius then lunged at supersonic speeds for one overwhelming thrust, a savage dome of air and violent winds all charged ahead of him as his vanguard. Chaotic gales guarded him like an army bent on protecting their master.

Hiro only saw the lunge with [Skill Prediction] less than a second before Artorius disappeared. But as he had never surrendered in his heart, if he dies today then so be it. No matter what happens He would never bow down.

'I have enough of being humiliated and pushed down you ikemen bastard! With this sword in my hand, nothing is impossible! The sword will be my future, my salvation, and my sole means to climb higher! I BOW DOWN TO NO ONE! I WILL NOT DIE HERE!'

Hiro suddenly felt an immense increase in strength, his brain worked faster as did his senses. He then saw Artorius running towards him. Amused that Artorius was now slower in his eyes, Hiro prepared his longsword for a counterattack.

'This world rewards perseverance, you bastard. You will never outlast me!'

- Alert: Skill [Wrath of the Vengeful] awakens skill [Six Gales], [Six Gales] forcefully evolved to [Thirty-Six Gales] -

"HAHAHA! LET'S DO THIS ARTORIUS!! SECONDARY SKILL: [THIRTY-SIX GALES]!"
