Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

In the city of Partisan, a battle of epic proportions unfolded. The battle had four factions from what others observed. The first was a 20-meter dragon that invaded the capital for some reason. The second is a Starfall group led by one of their spouse-ranked subs Gilthunder.

The last two only looked like opposing forces but in reality, were doing a play to confuse everyone else. Or that was what it was originally intended to be. Somewhere along the battle, Raylene started to show intense aggression and started attacking Aurum for real.

[Aurum]: Lady Raylene, are you alright? Your attacks are starting to become hard to handle.

[Aurum]: Lady Raylene, please respond. Your hair and eyes have started to glow.

[Aurum]: Lady Raylene, the Aura in your body is too much, please let it out to allow your body to acclimate.

Yet despite his many inquiries, the blue-haired empress ignored him and continued her fervent assault. Like a figure skater, Raylene started to glide on the ground as she chained her blows one after another. Even though the woman wore heavy armor and a red cape, the grace and fluidity of her sword strikes began to multiply its power.

Like a spinning top, each attack of her greatsword delivered a heavy blow, used its momentum to spin into another attack then allowed her to increase the power on a follow-up strike. The hair and eyes of the empress before Aurum started to light up like stars in the sky.

Aurum slowly started to get overpowered by Lene. Worried that his master would take it against him before he could say anything he then got a message from Hiro.

[Hiro]: San-Baka. Fight my girls like your lives depended on it. Do not pull your punches.

Everyone in the battle harem chat felt weird, wasn't this the man who would strangle you for even looking at his wives wrongly? And now he wants Aurum to go after one of his wives for real? It should be known that the San-Baka were at level 47-48 while Tsugumi was at 51.

[Tsugumi]: Nii-sama! Something weird is happening with Vanessa-Nee-sama. She looks like she doesn't know me anymore.

[Geo]: Master, I noticed the same thing with Lady Jade. She is intentionally aiming at civilians! Right now I am preventing her from succeeding, but her moves are becoming increasingly complicated!

System users from Levels 1 to 25 were Novices. Levels 26 to 50 where Initiates. 51-65 were considered low-level [Adepts]. Level 66-70 mid-level [Adepts]. Levels 71 to 85 high level [Adepts] while 85-99 were peak-level [Adepts].

From 100 to beyond were considered [Awakened]. While there are instances of people who raised their Regalia rank ahead of the necessary level it needed special training.

Raylene, Vanessa, and Jade are for all intents and purposes considered [Novices] at level 1. And they were fighting with battle-hardened system users about to become [Adepts]. Yet Hiro repeated his statement once more to reinforce the message.

[Hiro]: Fight my girls like your lives depended on it. Forget everything you know. Tsugumi, I forbid you from participating. Play with your niece while the show is ongoing.

[Tsugumi]: Nii-sama! What is happening?! My Onee-samas will get hurt!

[Hiro]: I know, this is what they want. I will tell you everything after we leave Partisan.

Hearing Hiro's instructions Geo, Aurum, and Lars started to fight the empresses at full power. Just like Raylene. Small changes in temperament occurred in the women.

Vanessa appeared to lose all sense of emotion. She had a stoic face as she rained skills and arrows at Lars.

Lars simply evaded the projectiles being thrown his way and tried to get in close. Nessa created distance by repeated blind back-flips as she navigated the rooftops of the System user district backwards.

"[Full Draw]. [Whistling Arrow]. [Tri-Shot]."

Three arrows flew towards Lars. He moved to evade them but he suddenly detected a fourth arrow coming at him at twice the speed from another direction with a whistling sound. Because he noticed late Lars entered the Spirit realm to gain enough time to get out of the way.

With a quick entry and exit the whistling arrow missed him. However, suddenly he felt a sharp pain as three arrows stabbed his shoulder from behind.

It made no sense as the arrows already passed him before he evaded the whistling arrow. When he inspected the weapons embedded in his flesh he started to grow even more alarmed.

———————

Magic Arrow

Rank [B]

Description: An arrow made from monster materials that are strong enough to support rune enchantments.

ATK: 750 ~ 980

Enchantments: [Open Wounds], [Debilitating Poison], [Beacon]

———————

This arrow could be considered pure evil, on top of increasing the damage he received, weakening him with poison, and lastly guiding other Magic Arrows to him. Inwardly Lars started to complain.

'The lady is merciless. Who takes the time to add three rune enchantments on a single arrow? And how did I even get hit with them? I evaded them all. I didn't even see them!'

When he examined his body he found something that made him even more dumbfounded.

———————

Silent Arrow

Rank [B]

Description: An arrow that does no damage but will make no sound to any being below high-level adepts.

ATK: 0

Enchantments: [Impale], [Interference], [Beacon]

———————

Lars couldn't help but lament this battle. 'My Lady, do you hate me that much? Isn't using these unfair?'

[Impale] increases penetration, while [Interference] cancels some of his spirit detection on command. These two will ensure anyone who eats a silent arrow would no longer be able to sense arrows as they approached.

The adopted son of Krich started to remember the stories about Vanessa. 'Truly someone from the convent. I wonder what her class was?'

Knowing he would die if he got stabbed by too many arrows, Larua charged in to attack Nessa. The woman seemingly expecting the attack pushed a button that snapped her bow at the handle transforming it into twin short swords.

The two former members of the convent of shadows started to clash blades with increasing intensity. Instead of finding it easy, Lar's slowly accumulated injuries as he got beaten even in knife techniques.

Being from a dagger class his pride took a hit as they started clashing at the speed of sound.

'How is she so good in bows and daggers?'

As they stabbed and parried each other, Larua found Nessa using his techniques. Only there were even more advanced versions of the ones he knew.

"My lady you were part of the Dagger class?"

The blond empress ignored him and moved to attack him from two sides, due to the close proximity of dagger combat, Lars blocked them and was near enough to be barely an inch from her. Nessa smiled then suddenly spat an orange mist on his face. The fluids entered his eyes and burned his skin like fire.

Lars who served with the convent knew what the orange fluid was. He Ignored the pain and did not let Vanessa out of his eyes. "Ember Starch! My Lady, you are from Poison?!"

Nessa said nothing as she kneed Larua in the groin. next, she slammed her heel on his instep then round-housed kicked him in the neck. As he fell the woman moved to use the momentum to put him into a headscissors.

Lars who started to get disoriented from the pain had his body slammed to the floor with his shoulder joint dislocated. Nessa nonchalantly answered as she wiped the residue from her lips. "I was a graduate of Strider."
