Ryo attacked.
Vertical downward slash, reverse upward slash, diagonal downward slash, diagonal upward slash, side slash and thrust.
However, his attacks were never rushed.
Rather, he carefully reproduced the sword swings he had trained one by one.
However, his sword flashed at high speed.
The Fallen Angel defended.
Dodge, weave, and directly deflect those were the essence of its defense.
Yes, there is no slack in its defense.
Rather, it perfectly defended and deflected all of Ryos attacks one by one.
Naturally, during a high-speed sword fight.
Amazing
Who blurted out those words?
Already, the only people fighting in the center of the arena were Ryo and the Fallen Angel.
Graham, Stefania, Niels, Amon, and Hugh also watched the two fight from a distance.
The holy swords they held could not reach that being
They knew it, but their hearts were controlled by fear.
So they had no choice but to attack.
But
Ryo now fight in their place.
Whats more, Ryos sword could harm the source of that fear!
So they decided to watch.
anwhile, the sword fight unfolded.
It was not a display of unconventional technique.
Rather, his swordsmanship could be called orthodox.
Thats precisely why the observers had no choice but to acknowledge the high level of technique involved.
Sword technique built through pilling effort on effort, getting knocked down over and over again, getting back up and picking up the sword and repeating that process over and over again.
It may not be the sword of a genius.
Still, it was a sword achieved through overwhelming effort over many years without cutting corners.
It didnt feel fleeting or fragile at all
Its so thick
Master (of the sword) McGrath was able to see the thickness ford through Ryos ti spent seriously training in the sword.
Thats why he muttered that.
That was the path he once took.
It was different from the heights that geniuses like Abel reach through effort on top of talent
However, they will never be inferior to nor lose to the heights those geniuses reached
They would reach a different height.
Hugh was well aware.
That height was not sothing a person could reach alone.
He realized that he couldnt move up unless he t a partner to whom he could entrust everything.
That was Hughs holy sword Galahad.
Likely for Ryo, it was the ice sword he was currently wielding
Hugh had no idea about the origin or history of Ryos sword.
He didnt even know if the sword was inscribed with the na of a famous swordsmith.
Ryo believed in his sword, and his sword perford its best for Ryo Hugh could comprehend that.
It was different from the trust between people.
Complete unity of heart and body.
The sword becos a part of the swordsmans body, raising each other to a higher dinsion.
Being able to see such a sight is a blessing for a swordsman.
Hes a magician though
Hugh mumbled that involuntarily, and then smiled bitterly.
He understood.
That didnt matter.
A man who simply trained with his sword seriously, connected with it with his heart, and rose to greater heights.
Thats all.
The sword fight that started with Ryo attacking and the Fallen Angel defending had switched to Ryo defending and the Fallen Angel attacking.
At first, the Fallen Angel was maintaining a dignified stance as if to say, Co attack , but now it was attacking fiercely.
It was as if, as it continued to be attacked by Ryo, it too beca heated
If you looked closely, you might even see a faint smile on it.
And, of course, Ryo, who was subjected to such fierce attacks, also smiled.
Why was he smiling?
There is only one reason to smile.
Because its enjoyable.
Of course, if he received a fatal blow, he would die.
He understood that.
He understood but he couldnt help but feel that it was fun.
Parry the Fallen Angels side sweep, dodge its diagonal downward slash, lean back to further dodge the following back slash, and counterattack with a diagonal downward slash.
While dodging Ryos diagonal downward slash with its footwork, it took another step to the side and slashed from a blind spot.
Ryo had never seen the school of swordsmanship the Fallen Angel practiced before, but to be honest, he was excited to defend against it.
Even though he would die if he received a fatal blow.
And finally
He failed to defend.
Slash.
A large gash was cut into Ryos right arm.
Amazingly, the Fallen Angels sword cut through the Fairy Kings robe.
Its okay, it didnt reach the bone.
Ryo made an instant judgnt.
But soon sothing else, more important, occurred to him.
My robe was cut?
However, the robe soon repaired itself.
As if it had a will.
Thank goodness.
Ryo was relieved. He didnt want to see his precious robes in tatters.
Well, thats not what Ryo should be worried about.
His arm was deeply injured and was bleeding profusely.
If he was the kind to worry more about his body than his clothes.
However, Ryo declared.
This is just a handicap. Its not like I got my arm cut off.
Hearing this, the Fallen Angel clearly smiled.
It was different from the faint smile he had seen so far. A distinct smile.
As if it was rejoicing in the battle
A Fallen Angel who can break through even Ryos impenetrable defenses.
However, Ryo did not despair.
Even if it seems impossible at first glance, there is always a breakthrough point.
Ryo knew that from his experience of fighting many extraordinary beings.
Experiencing success is what gives people confidence.
Ryo looked straight ahead.
His right arm was deeply injured.
But no problem.
Ryos sword was supported by his left arm.
The right arm is the one that guides the sword
The Fallen Angel must have also noticed the change in Ryos atmosphere.
It moved its sword wide.
To decide with one blow.
The two of them remained motionless in complete silence.
Cling!
The sound of sothing falling.
That was the trigger.
They both jump in at the sa ti.
The Fallen Angels sword swung down first.
Just a little, Ryo moved his left side further forward and turned sideways.
He raised his right arm above his head.
And Ryos right arm got cut off.
However, at the sa ti, Murasa, that was supported by only his left hand, pierced the Fallen Angels chest.
A clear thrust with the left hand.
Furthermore, ice spread from the pierced chest.
It was not Ryos magic.
It was Murasa.
Although the opponent was supposed to be immune to magic, Murasa, with its hilt and blade glowing blue, stopped the Fallen Angels movents.
Coffin, activate!
Ryo exclaid.
At that mont, the Fallen Angels expression changed to one of surprise.
Then, he looked at the coffin that Ryo had brought with him when he first flew over.
After a few monts, it burst into laughter.
Maybe it understood what it was and how it had been modified.
Its an alchemy technique that was used to capture a Djinn for hundreds of years. It also used the Djinns own magical power.
Ryo applied the chanism that was used to capture the Djinn of the south, near Kona Village.
Using the Djinns own magical power to keep capturing the Djinn what a trick.
The Black Notebook that Ryo inherited from Hasan also contained a similar magic formula.
Of course, at the ti, Ryo couldnt understand it at all, but over the past three years, Ryos knowledge of alchemy had increased and he had gained experience.
He had honed his skills!
This ti, hed use the Fallen Angels energy to trap the Fallen Angel.
It was a technique that even the genius alchemist Viscount Kenneth Hayward probably didnt know.
And this coffin is equipped with a chanism that captures and stores God Fragnts, an elent that is probably important in a higher dinsion. Im guessing it is a magic formula you taught Cardinal Sacharias? I can easily predict that if I use it, it would capture you, a being from a higher dinsion.
Ryo explained.
He was explaining, but at the sa ti, he was understanding it.
The Fallen Angel in front of him must have appeared in this three-dinsional world in search of a place to die, so to speak.
Of course, it didnt matter who it fought or where it died.
But it sought the right person to die to and the right location, the circumstances to satisfy that
Perhaps it manifested in this arena and noticed right away.
In this place, Ryo was that right person.
No, it may have known about Ryos existence even before that for example, when he defeated the Pope in the atrium of the underground palace
But when it descended to this arena, it understood clearly.
Ryo was the right person to be its final opponent.
It wasnt because it understood Ryos power, but because he was wearing the robe of the Fairy King.
Because it knew that he had the Fairy Kings sword that could interfere with its power.
Thats why it shot Ryo first, who was in the audience seats.
Ryo then prepared a coffin and fought it with Murasa and perhaps convinced the Fallen Angel.
Eventually, the Fallen Angel, whose energy supply from God was cut off, will disappear.
However, if possible, it wanted to take action and bring its curtain to a close through its own volition Ryo interpreted it to be sothing like that.
If youre convinced, please sleep peacefully in this coffin.
Ryo said that in a rather calm tone.
The Fallen Angel smiled faintly and was sucked into the coffin.
Ryos right arm was successfully regenerated by Etho, who ran so fast he looked like he would tumble.
Afterward, the storage of the coffin was discussed.
Ryo, of course, remained in the discussion until the end, as he was pretty much the only person who could move the coffin.
anwhile, the Central Countries delegation returned to their quarters
After the discussion, Ryo arrived at his dorm feeling tired.
The consumption of magic power wasnt that great, it was more of a ntal strain.
Of course that was natural since his arm was sliced off.
Welco back, Ryo.
Ryo-san, welco back.
Go and take a bath.
Ryo finally felt a little better after Etho, Amon, and Niels greeted him.
He decided it was a good ti to report to His Majesty the King, who is far away, since his previous report was quite so ti ago.
((Im really tired. I cant continue doing this without receiving overti allowance.))
((Ryo.))
((Abel? Whats wrong?))
Abels reply was the darkest tone Ryo had ever heard.
((Sorry, Ryo. The Kingdom may be ruined))
((Abel?))
((At least the people in the delegation should survive okay? Dont ever return to the Central Countries, okay?))
((Abel?!))
((Dont co back))
At that point, communication was cut off.
After that, no matter how many tis he tried to connect, he couldnt connect to Abel.
It had never happened before that Soul Resonance did not connect.
Sothing unusual had certainly happened.
The three people of Room 10 watched Ryos unusual behavior from the sidelines.
Ryo?
Niels called out quietly.
As expected, he could tell that he was not in the mood to joke.
My communication with Abel was lost.
Ha?
Niels was speechless at Ryos words.
Etho and Amon couldnt say anything either.
I was told not to co back to the Central Countries, but thats not going to happen
But it will take a month
In response to Ryos words, Niels reminded him of the travel distance.
What about rlin?
If I recall correctly, he said that the magical power the magical power of the dungeon has not fully returned yet, so he wont be able to reach the Central Countries
Amon and Etho searched for the possibility of teleportation using Djinn rlins help, but it was impossible.
The magical power consud to send Hero Roman and the Demon Lord Nadia through teleportation not just rlin, but the magical power of the western dungeon that served as the foundation for the teleportation it may not be the sa magical power that the three in Room 10 are familiar with, but it sounded like it would take quite a while to recover.
Ryo thought of sothing and looked up.
Im going to the Empires lodgings.
Huh? Hey, Ryo!
Niels instinctively called out to Ryo as he began to walk away.
However, Ryo quickly left the dormitory.
Imperial Delegation Accommodation.
This is Ryo Mihara, Duke of Rondo, Kingdom of Knightley.
Ryo said as he held out his identification plate and entered through the entrance.
Huh? Duke?
Is that the Water Magician from earlier?
Hey, wait a minute!
Dont co in without permission
Ryo ignored all the voices and pushed forward while clearing away those who grabbed at him with .
Please let see His Majesty the Forr Emperor.
While saying that, he cleared away all the hindrances and opened the door to the Emperors room on the top floor.
Excuse , Your Majesty the Forr Emperor are you there?
It was a particularly luxurious room he could tell at a glance that it was a room set up for the forr emperor but the person in there was a nobleman.
He was not the forr emperor.
A nobleman that Ryo also knew.
Count Hans Kirchhoff?
Yes, hello, Your Excellency, Duke Rondo.
Excuse , but His Majesty the Forr Emperor
His Majesty is not here.
Count Hans Kirchhoff answered Ryos question without any hesitation.
The answer suddenly flashed in Ryos head.
That was sothing that had been bothering him ever since during the trouble at that eting hall
Count Hans Kirchhoff also ca to Ryo and Robert Pirlo.
Not the forr emperor.
Yes, the forr emperor was already at that point
Hes no longer in the Western Countries?
Yes. As expected of you, you deduced it quickly.
Hearing that, Ryo fell to his knees.
Duke Rondo?
Hans asked suspiciously.
That ans His Majesty the Forr Emperor has returned to the Central Countries with Baron Hagen Venda, who can use In other words, Baron Hagen Venda is no longer here right?
Ryos question for confirmation was already weak and small.
Yes, youre right.
Hans answered with a nod.
There was the mont when Ryo completely lost the way to quickly return to the Central Countries
