Cain couldn't help but feel a headache as he stared at Kober. He didn't have a problem with the man; it was just that being a teacher was sothing he did not really like or know how to do.
However, he understood the value of the Diamond Saint Duke due to his importance in Gaia's south, and the request was fair, so he did not have a problem with the fact that Lurin placed Kobel as his In-na Disciple.
"Well, there's no need to waste ti."
Cain waved his hand forward as if it were a blade, making a deep cut in the fabric of space.
"Let's get in."
Without more words, Cain entered the cut in space that led to a dinsion built between the layers of reality, and the Collapsing Lightning Duke and First Collapsing Lightning Pillar followed him. The Diamond Saint Duke and Kober glanced at each other before nodding and getting in as well.
The dinsion was empty, without a floor or ceiling, but it was stable enough to endure the energy radiation of the group, which was already impressive.
Cain turned toward Kober with a serious expression.
"According to what I learned from you, you follow the sword path, am I right?"
"¡Yes, Master!"
Kober imdiately nodded. While his father was known for relying on his imnsely durable body, he followed a path of his own, relying on a Natural Inheritance in the form of a sword he found during his youth.
Cain nodded before turning toward the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar.
"Hand over your old sword."
The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar waved his hand, taking out the old Peak Adamantium Artifact Sword he used in battle before the Scarlet King gave him the three Space Swords.
Cain grabbed the sword, and as he felt the durability of this one, he nodded before flooding it with his Astral Wave.
"Gabriel. Reinforce the stability of this place with your power."
The Collapsing Lightning Duke nodded to the Scarlet King, and the next second, his energy began to flood the surroundings. He used the power of gravity to ensure the endurance and stability of the dinsion.
"I will now display the Elental Fury Blade Dance. Pay attention."
Kober's eyes burst with golden light and focus as he heard those words from the Scarlet King, making sure to erase any other thought from his mind.
Once Cain made sure Kober was paying attention, he focused on the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar.
"Attack with all you have. Do not contain yourself."
The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar's eyes burst with a white fla as he unleashed the full power of his Ego Wave, pushing his body and energy to their zenith before flashing forward with his sword blazing with power.
Kober's eyes widened as he saw the charge of the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar and felt the man carried the power to sunder the heavens. Yet the Scarlet King remained calm in the face of that overwhelming power and raised his sword as the power of wind burst from his body.
"First Stance: Gale Edge Stance."
Cain had just uttered those words when the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar's attack was about to land on him, showing what could only be described as supernatural agility, as swift as a gale. And that was not all, as he imdiately countered, unleashing a sharp razor wind from his weapon.
"Razor Wind Slash."
The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar's eyes narrowed as he saw that attack and imdiately teleported to another sword, dodging the wind blade and attacking Cain's back.
"Whirlwind Parry."
That attack carried overwhelming power, yet Cain only twisted the grip on his sword before spinning with his entire body, generating a vortex so powerful that it managed to repel the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar.
The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar clenched his teeth as he used all his strength to resist being thrust away by the vortex. He then imdiately returned to the fray, channeling the full power of the Trinity Space Sword Domain.
"Second Stance: Torrent Blade."
Just as the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar flashed back toward Cain, the wind faded, and instead, waves of water ford around his sword. The Scarlet King's sword mirrored the reflective and adaptive properties of water.
"Reflective Water Guard."
The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar attacked with ferocity but could not connect a single strike. Cain created a fluid, shimring barrier around him, which absorbed and dissipated the energy of sword strikes, reducing their impact and allowing for quick counterasures.
Every ti Cain deflected one of the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar's strikes, the waves of water around his sword seed to grow stronger, and finally, after thirty seconds of defense, it was ti for the counter.
"Cascading Wave Strike."
The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar saw how his sword was deflected down just for the Scarlet King to raise his weapon. As he focused on it, he felt the overwhelming force of water, ready to deliver a sweeping strike that flowed like a torrential wave.
Imdiately, the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar teleported to another sword. Just as he grabbed the handle, he saw Cain had appeared before him and unleashed the strike.
Thanks to the force of water, Cain's moves were fluid, and he could twist and turn even as he fired that imnsely powerful strike.
The First Collapsing Lightning Pillar could only raise his sword, using it as a shield to defend against the torrential wave. Yet it soon overwheld his defenses by adapting and enveloping his sword, much like water overcos obstacles in its path.
Luckily for the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, it faded just as the water was about to overwhelm him. A shocked expression appeared on the man. He was trying to regulate his breathing and gazed at the Scarlet King, who remained in his original position.
The Scarlet King had not used any ounce of Essence Wave or his domain over the Laws, only depending on his Astral Wave Path of Power. Yet, he completely overwheld the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, a man known as one of the strongest True Titans!
