Earth's Greatest Magus Chapter 781 - Law Of The Sword

Chapter 781 - Law Of The Sword

Even though Ery had clinched the victory against Vizla in their previous duel, it was clear for him that the man was better skilled at him in weapon fighting.

"Are you ready, Ery?" Vizla stared straight into Ery's eyes and smirked. "It's ti for a payback!"

The man spoke in a confident tone before he picked up two wooden swords from the rack and walked to the center of the courtyard. Seeing that, Ery's gaze turned serious as he quickly took his fighting stance.

"Here I co!"

Vizla laughed vivaciously as he said those words. A second later, his figure shot towards Ery with his two swords brandished together.

Tak! Tak! Tak!

Three consecutive sounds resounded in the air when Ery blocked the three attacks Vizla aid at both his arms and body in rapid succession. The next instant, their positions shifted several feet away from their original positions with their swords touching each other, shaking from the clash of powerful forces.

Their figures disappeared and reappeared again at the sa ti, and their clashes continued fiercely.

Vizla did not necessarily have a better technique compared to Silva, but how the man utilized such technique was in a completely different style from his sister. While Silva's swordsmanship was really fast and rapid like lightning, Vizla's swordsmanship was heavy and loud like thunder.

In addition, the double swords also made things more complicated for Ery.

Even though he was sowhat suppressed by Vizla's strong montum, Ery was not disheartened. In fact, he considered monts like this as a chance to once again further refine and perfect the 36 variations of his [36 Dao Divine Sword Technique].

"Silva, sword!" Hearing his shout, Silva imdiately grabbed a random wooden sword from the rack and threw it to Ery.

Ery caught the sword flying through the air with ease, and now he was about to try and see if he could dual wield his new technique.

Because of the unfamiliarity, things didn't go as smoothly as Ery initially thought. As a result, Vizla was able to get his revenge.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Loud dull sound continued to reverberate through the air as various parts of Ery were continuously hit by Vizla's swords. However, the forr didn't mind at all. In fact, it only caused him to be more committed in finding a solution to his predicant imdiately.

Two swords, two-strike, two variations.

It was as if Ery needed to break and separate his concentration in two; his soul needed to handle two very taxing tasks at the sa ti. Realizing this, Ery couldn't help but feel that this practice was sohow similar to when he trained and tempered his soul.

Bam! Bam! Tak!

So ti had passed and the sound of Ery's body being hit was suddenly cut short, replaced by the familiar flat sound of wood clashing against wood.

Tak! Bam! Tak! Tak!

There was still the occasional sound of a body being hit, but it gradually diminished before it finally disappeared completely.

Tak! Tak! Tak!

A wide smile was clearly visible on Ery's face at this ti. He was very happy because this second fight with Vizla turned out to be the most exciting fight he had ever experienced.

Vizla, seemingly noticing Ery's change, increased the intensity of his attacks. It seed the man finally had no plan to hold himself back now. anwhile, even though he was caught off guard by the sudden change in tempo of the battle, Ery quickly recovered his deanor and welcod it with open arms.

The fight between the two raged fiercely, and an hour passed without them noticing. However, there is still no conclusive ending for the two of them.

Both Ery and Vizla were so imrsed in their fight that they didn't even realize that Master Atika had arrived in the courtyard. Regardless, she walked towards the edge of the courtyard and stood right next to Silva.

This ti, the grand magus simply stood quietly and watched the ongoing fight, which could only an that she was interested.

The spar between Vizla and Ery fell into a stalemate so long and stubborn that the forr eventually beca too emotional and rage-quit the fight.

"No!" He said. "I am not in the mood anymore. We shall do this again later."

This lackadaisical attitude Vizla showed naturally earned him a round of scolding from his sister. On the other hand, Ery ignored the bickering of the two siblings and turned to his master. He approached her and gave her a respectful bow before opening his mouth.

"I have completed the 36 variations, Master."

Master Atika nodded. "Very good. Much faster than I expected. It seems that you do have so talent in the way of the sword."

Ery was happy to be complented by a sword grandmaster. His elated expression was caught by the latter, and a slight crease suddenly appeared on her face.

"Alas…" She sighed. "It's truly a pity that you will never beco a master."

The words that ca out of Master Atika's mouth completely shocked Ery. Silva and Vizla, who were still nearby, overheard this and both of them were dumbfounded by it.

Repressing the shock he currently felt, Ery gave another respectful bow to Master Atika and carefully asked, "Please guide , Master. What did I do wrong?"

The female grandmaster, unexpectedly, let out a sigh. Ery didn't have the chance to ponder the possible aning of the sigh because she had opened his mouth.

"Simply because… you will never form your sword aura successfully."

Master Atika lifted her finger, and suddenly it shone brightly. The light ford into the shape of a sword, and she swung it towards a big rock in the courtyard. The sword-shaped light shot forward and was able to split the rock in two in an instant.

Ignoring the awe in Ery's eyes, Master Atika continued her words. "That, just now, is not an elental spell; it's the sword aura. In order to be able to form it, you must first understand the law of the sword." She sighed again. "Unfortunately, unless you break through into the magus level, you can not learn the law of the sword or any law at all.

Ery was taken aback when he heard this, and he was sohow able to guess where this conversation was going.

Master Atika looked him straight in the eye, pity evident in her eyes. "I'm sure I'm not the first person to tell you this; you can't be a magus, not with such a ssy spirit core."

And just like that, the bitter mories flowing back to him. Ery's mind replayed the words that were said by Headmaster Altus.

"Anyway, you don't need to be so discouraged," said Master Atika when she saw the blank look on Ery's face. "This 36 variations of yours is an extraordinary achievent already. This will definitely help you beco a top sword expert, but that is the maximum you can achieve."

Master Atika seed to have finished what she wanted to say and she turned her body. Ery, however, quickly stopped her from walking away.

"Master, if that's the case, then why did you accept as your disciple?"

Not even turning back, Master Atika answered the question.

"I was amused with your technique, and as I thought it does indeed help reach the next stage of my law of the sword. So for that, I am thankful. Find if you sohow manage to beco a magus, and I will definitely teach you more. As for now, I have nothing else to teach."

Finishing her piece, Master Atika then imdiately walked away and left the courtyard, leaving Ery clenching his fist in despair.. The two siblings, who were still on the spot, both looked at him with concern.
