Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

Back with Aurum, the man currently dueled a powerful greatsword wielder with glowing eyes and hair. The woman looked like she burned hotter than the sun. Even if he blocked her strikes, the angles she came from him made him dumbfounded.

Each time he stopped Raylene, the woman would not resist his force but dance to his strike. The kinetic energy from his blow would be redirected back to him with Raylene's own power. At first, he still could withstand it. But no matter how he blocked the succeeding counter blows grow more powerful the longer she danced.

His aura armor repeatedly broke as it was invaded by foreign calibers. On top of aggressive power, the blue-haired empress wielded her Aura like a flame and burned Aurum with it. Like a turtle, the man slowly got cooked the more aura got into his body.

The Son of Standar couldn't believe what was happening in front of him. As an avid learner of history, Aurum frequently studied the history of his family. The fascination with Caelum Standar imprinted in his life. In fact, one of his reasons for fighting was to chase after his ancestor's achievements.

Aurum tried to copy the accomplishments of Caelum, he grew famous for being a front-line fighter that never retreated. The Strongest Standar rode together with Dius Valorious the greatest Savior during the era of demons.

[Harmony Swordsmanship] and [Noble Fencer] could be considered the fruits of his labors as he aimed to never retreat once he fought at the front lines. However, he did not develop such tactics on his own. The concept of using your opponent's attack to supplement your own came from Caelum.

But only those who learn of the man's adventures would know that even Caelum copied it from someone else. During the era of demons, hardly anyone had the power to fight back against the demon lords. But one man succeeded. This man used the power of their blows against them through a unique style of swordsmanship and Aura usage.

That man's name was Dius Valorious, the Sword Savior. And his famed fighting style that allowed common men to fight demons became the stuff of legend. That swordsmanship had the name…

'[Dance of Valor and Glory]!!! How?!'

[Aurum]: My Lady! Are you a member of the Valorian Royalty?!

Raylene didn't bother answering and stomped on the ground with so much force that it shook. Her blade again aimed to cut the Son of Standar's flank. Knowing what he was fighting, Aurum created Aura hooks that nailed him to the ground.

*BOOOM*

The power of the blow sent tremors into Aurum's bones. He vomited blood due to accepting the force. Yet like a dancing flower, instead of stopping Raylene spun around to the left as her footwork carried her away.

'SHIT! IT REALLY IS THE [DANCE OF VALOR AND GLORY]! I NEED TO BREAK THE TEMPO!'

[Dance of Valor and Glory] which was developed by Dius became the most after swordsmanship on the continent. Unfortunately due to its power, only selected knights were given lessons by the legendary hero. Caelum Standar being one of these people recorded at length the impossible feats of this fighting style.

The fighting style required intense concentration on top of a unique Aura caliber technique. Most system users knew how to use Aura, but those who have fought with them for thousands of years created a set of best practices known as Caliber combat doctrines.

Instead of just enveloping your body with calibers the combat doctrines taught people how to wrap their limbs, fluids, and even cells in them. The degree of skill this needed would be what set the ordinary from the geniuses.

Dius who knew the dangers of giving away his swordsmanship never allowed anyone outside his family to learn the Valorius Combat Doctrine. Thus even if one knew the movements, your insides would fail long before one could use [Dance of Valor and Glory].

These two factors practically became the calling card of Valorian Royalty. Thus Aurum became certain Raylene Mitsurugi had ties to the Sword Savior Dius Valorious.

From the limited insights, Aurum grasped that the legendary swordsmanship operated on a simple principle. Kinetic redirection. Each strike or counterstrike generated force. That was simple physics, but Dius stored the force in his calibers.

The dance facilitated the action of storing energy. And the flames are the medium of how the force is redirected. As kinetic energy impacts the cells, a strong caliber combat doctrine is needed to protect the warrior. Otherwise once the impact is taken into the body the warrior would self-destruct.

But as with all things the energy stored in a body always had a limit. This limit is the dance's finale. Aurum read that the finale of [Dance of Valor and Glory] could create miracles. If the dance is not stopped after 72 blows the finale will arrive and its power would be neigh unstoppable.

"I'm sorry my lady, but as your opponent, I cannot allow you to continue!"

Aurum then used his aura to destroy the ground. If the footwork is what allowed the dance and its tempo. Then breaking the flooring would disrupt it!

Yet, even after the floor shattered the woman didn't stop. Aurum then saw her shoes. Caliber platforms created from pure Aura accompanied Raylene wherever she danced.

The woman then made a savage smile as she spoke. "Nice try. But sadly lacking. My turn son of Standar!"

————————

Hiro looked on while his women fought Sword Dynasty. Each of them exhibited combat potential significantly above what normal people could do. The Dragon continued to destroy the area and the empress San-Baka pairs also continued to level buildings as they fought.

The butcher on the other hand continued to send attacks toward the dragon. But the attacks had such piss poor aim they destroy building after building injuring many civilians in the process. Due to a large number of people in need of rescue, Gilthunder got nailed in place as no one could save them but him.

As the number of buildings grew less and less, Hiro knew that this tactic would not last forever. Yet Hiro's focus was on his wives who fought while suffering from caliber diseases. His mind kept repeating the conversation they had just had yesterday.

After Hiro shared the events surrounding Tsugumi and Aurum's awakenings to dual-caliber users, his women grew incredibly curious. Having a second caliber gave one more utility thus all three empresses entertained the idea of learning how to awaken them.

"Darling, if it is possible to earn all three calibers then is there a way to increase our capacity?"

"Level up I guess? Other than that the clutches would be the fastest way. I don't think you can train it."

"Husband. I think it can be done."

"? Why do you think that wifey?"

"When Aurum and Tsugumi awoke their second calibers, they shared they felt bloated. From what we know the awakening process is basically calibers flooding a body to find its caliber limit. As they had yet to know what Aurum or Tsugumi's limit was, the amount they gained was on top of what they could handle so they felt bloated.

"What if the longer you endured the feeling the more you could retain? The three of us had yet to do our awakening in our new bodies. So this would be a good experiment." Explained the rose-colored empresses.

"But that would be dangerous."

Vanessa then hugged Hiro's arm and spoke in a stern voice. "We are ready for such dangers my love."
