This point is also reflected in the Walker Kingdom located in the southern part of the Akasha continent.
The Walker Kingdom is the only country on the whole Akasha continent that is by the sea.
Therefore, the water vapor in this country is very dense, and there are an unusually high number of people practicing water attribute sword techniques and water elent magic.
However, located in the central part of the continent, the Kingdom of Ginas and the Leiblu Kingdom have people practicing all kinds of sword techniques and magic.
The sword technique used by the middle-aged knight at this mont, although different from Yanifet and the forr "Ice Maiden," is undoubtedly also a kind of high-level ice attribute sword technique.
Unfortunately...
"Slash attribute attacks are ineffective, and I have frost resistance myself, so even if your sword is powerful, it can’t threaten ."
A hand reached out from the snowstorm, seemingly slow but actually fast, and two fingers pinched the fla-shaped sword blade that had struck the ground and lifted it.
"What?"
The middle-aged knight was shocked and instinctively wanted to withdraw his weapon, only to be horrified to discover that his Sword Saint-level physique was inferior to the strength of the fingers holding the blade.
"Boom!"
Imdiately, the middle-aged knight activated the chilling glow on the fla-shaped sword blade, creating an ice explosion that caused countless shards of ice to burst forth.
Only then did the two fingers release the blade, allowing the middle-aged knight to retract his fla-shaped sword, and he instantly flashed aside to distance himself from the newcor.
It was not until this mont that he saw the newcor’s full appearance.
"It’s you?"
The middle-aged knight tightened his grip on the sword.
"Seems like you know ."
The youth who dispersed the flying snow suddenly smiled at the middle-aged knight.
The newcor was none other than Reiger.
"Why are you here?"
The middle-aged knight couldn’t help but glance toward the direction of the dragon carriage.
At this mont, the dragon carriage had already started moving, embarking once again on its journey to Urvashi.
Yet this young man before him was there less than a minute ago.
"Spatial transfer?" The middle-aged knight finally realized the truth and could not help but ask: "But how did you discover ?"
To this question, Reiger only chuckled.
"You’re the ones who keep sending people to attack us, and now you’re asking how I discovered you?"
This question truly lacked intelligence.
Since they already knew soone intended to attack them, how could Reiger not deploy detection or perception magic?
Not to ntion, although the multi-winged beast is not good at flying in snowy weather, it has been keeping watch over the dragon carriage from above, alerting Reiger to his surroundings.
With the multi-winged beast’s eyesight, as long as the snow wasn’t too heavy, detecting if soone was hiding nearby was undoubtedly quite simple.
"So, let guess, who might you be?" Reiger looked at the middle-aged knight and smiled: "The strength just now is vastly different from that of the previous assailants, seems like the people behind you couldn’t sit still anymore and finally sent over a Sword Saint-level character."
"Which Sword Saint from the Tistis Kingdom are you? Or a Sword Saint from those small alliances?"
"Or do you have another origin?"
Facing Reiger’s curious inquiry, the middle-aged knight tightened his grip on the sword once again, and an intense wave of negative emotions surged in his heart.
No choice.
This young man, clearly not yet eighteen, stood before him with an attitude as if he had completely figured him out, and showed no sign of treating him as a threat, which was enough to be infuriating.
What’s more, his attitude was eerily similar to that of the loathed female Martial God.
Recall that when he battled that woman, she looked equally unconcerned, calm without a trace of seriousness, as if she never saw him as anything significant.
And these two were equally young, which only exacerbated the knight’s emotions.
Yet, amidst emotional turbulence, the middle-aged knight managed not to lose his rationality.
"...I am Claude Ogman."
Eventually, the middle-aged knight worked to regain his composure and reported his na.
"Claude Ogman?"
Reiger’s eyebrows slightly raised.
This na was known to him.
"One of the seven Sword Saints of the Tistis Kingdom, once just an ordinary soldier in the queen’s army; twenty years ago, he accompanied the army into a dangerous area but turned misfortune into blessing there by acquiring rare high-level sword techniques and a secret treasure to complent them. After years of arduous training, he successfully ascended to beco a Sword Saint, was recruited by the royal family, and conferred the title of Earl, that Claude Ogman?"
Speaking of this Sword Saint from the Tistis Kingdom, he was quite renowned among northern countries.
He was one who originated from an ordinary background, yet by chance gained significant fortune, which changed his destiny and embarked him on an extraordinary life journey.
Twenty years ago, he narrowly escaped death in that dangerous land, where out of hundreds, he was the sole survivor and obtained treasures hidden in danger, comncing his path as a successful person—this ordeal of his, even today, remains the envy and jealousy of countless commoners in northern countries hoping to make a mark, keeping his saga alive and popularized across twenty years.
It can be seen as having acquired the protagonist template, akin to martial arts novels where one falls off a cliff only to survive and obtain a rare martial arts manual, thereby achieving great skill, and erging as a great hero in a different world version—no one would not envy or not feel jealous.
Due to this legendary story, the identity was highly prestigious among northern countries, even ranking among the forefront within the seven Sword Saints of the queen’s kingdom.
However...
"Didn’t you go into seclusion after losing to the female Martial God of the queen’s kingdom to intensely train your sword techniques? Why are you showing up here now?"
Reiger’s words, seemingly playful yet pointed, directly reopened Claude’s emotional wounds, causing his facial expression to slightly distort.
This was also a widely told anecdote within the Tistis Kingdom.
It concerned a newly ascended Sword Saint of the queen’s kingdom in recent years.
Allegedly, several years ago, a genius female swordsman erged in Tistis Kingdom, who at rely 22 years old, obtained Sword Saint status and was hailed as the most talented person in the kingdom’s history.
Though young, amongst all Sword Saints in the kingdom, she was the most inexperienced, but within the re three years post her ascension, she achieved nurous miraculous battle records.
Two years ago, as a newly-crowned Sword Saint, she publicly challenged a veteran Sword Saint of the kingdom and succeeded in defeating him.
A year later, she once again issued challenges to veteran Sword Saints, this ti confronting two at once, and ultimately prevailed.
Several tis, she repelled Sword Saints from foreign nations, dominated the battlefield during two wars, and remained undefeated—none could inflict a wound on her snow-like skin.
Gradually, by this year, at the tender age of 25, not only did she unmistakably earn the title of the kingdom’s strongest, but was also revered as the female Martial God, gaining countless supporters.
Because of her superhuman growth rate and astonishing combat achievents, she was appointed as the commander of the queen’s knight brigade, managing and directing all knights and soldiers belonging to the Tistis Kingdom, a status so elevated even princesses and princes within the royal family treated her with caution.
Recent rumors even suggested that the royal family’s generationally inherited National Guardian Divine Weapon seed to be drawn by the female Martial God; hence, many believed she might bear partial royal blood.
Reiger was only aware of the female Martial God’s existence later on.
And before him stood Claude Ogman with his ’illustrious encounter,’ who was one of the two Sword Saints defeated by the female Martial God a year ago.
"Instead of staying ho, shutting yourself away to train for revenge against that female Martial God, why are you here?"
Reiger maintained his playful smile, yet his gaze turned cold.
"Or indeed, do you intend to attack us, make your move on us?"
