Hero Of Darkness

Chapter 314 - The Sorceress And The Swordsman



Chapter 314 – The Sorceress And The Swordsman

The whole empire was stunned by the ongoing match as both the finalists displayed unparalleled skills during their battle that were out of everyone's expectations. 

"How can he use that skill without even breaking through to the saint rank?.." spoke Stalin in bewilderment. 

Not just him but more than a hundred saints watching this match were gobsmacked.

Because even someone like Stronoff Mikealson couldn't create that many aura swords when he was still a semi-saint saint. And he was nicknamed as the greatest swordsmanship prodigy in the past hundred years. 

At this exact moment.. Stronoff had a helpless expression. 

"Now I can't do anything to get him on our side." 

"Brother.. Who is he really? How can he fight our Kassandra as equals?" asked Damon. 

He was a mage so he too could sense the extremely dense aura and compressed elemental swords. 

BOOM!

CLANG! 

CRACK! 

The entire arena shook from the shockwaves after Kahn's aura blades and Kassandra's attack using Brunhilde clashed together. 

Although he lacked the brute strength compared to the deity summoned by Kassandra, he closed the gap with the sheer numbers of aura greatswords, every single one of which were almost 4 times more powerful than before. 

Clanging noises filled the battlefield as lightning, fire, water, wind, earth, wood and light elemental skills and attacks collided against one another. 

Explosions after explosions filled the battlefield and the ground shattered in the 5 kilometer radius ring. Even the millions of audiences in the crowd were scared from the aftershocks and almost felt like they were the ones actually standing inside the battlefield. 

But as an aftereffect.. Both Kahn and Kassandra started losing their strength and stamina because the amount of strength and mana both of them were using to attack the opponent was depleting at an extremely fast pace. 

Even Kahn with the doubled mana pool and stats felt like his head would crack open because the hundred swords were engaged in a constant clash against Brunhilde who was masterfully defending against them no matter which direction he attacked from. 

Everywhere the lance attacks from the valkyrie landed, hundreds of meters of space was destroyed to smithereens. 

With both of them on the backfoot and almost out of energy to carry the battle, they understood one thing. 

That they had to end it with a single and their most powerful ultimate skill. 

"Hey.. You're running out of strength as well, right?" asked Kahn to his tired and profusely sweating opponent. 

Kassandra was panting heavily and gave a deathly glare to Kahn. 

"If you are tired.. Just forfeit the match and go home." she replied in a playful tone. 

Kahn chuckled back in response. Both he and Kassandra were pushing themselves to their limits and for some reason.. But the two of them felt like they were having a good time. 

Among the VIP rooms for prestigious clans.. A halfbreed white-haired demonkin girl in red and black armor along with two glimmering red swords on her waist was looking at both Kasandra and Kahn with shocked eyes. 

"So, I wasn't even worthy to compete with them on even grounds?" wondered Celine Armitage, the dual swords saintess. 

She had barely mustered the courage to watch the finale after being defeated by Kassandra in the semifinals. Now, found that it wasn't even her best. 

And the man named Kahn, whom she hadn't even expected to reach this stage was many times stronger than her. 

If she were to face Kassandra at this moment, she would've been mortally injured already. 

The Sorceress and The Swordsman in front of her were already in a completely different league. 

Soon, both Kahn and Kassandra reached their limits and Brunhilde's movements became slower as Kassandra had almost depleted her mana reserves that she needed to maintain the summoned deity. 

Crack! Crack! 

Both the valkyrie and the greatswords started cracking as their respective owners became like an arrow at its end. 

Kahn dashed forward and came 100 meters close to now cracking figure of Brunhilde. 

The next second, his image flickered and appeared right on the top of the massive shield held by the valkyrie. 

STAB!! 

And before Kassandra could even react, Kahn appeared on the head of this deity. 

He already knew that if Kassandra wasn't limited by her rank as a semi-saint.. This summoned deity would be tens of times stronger. 

Compared to a guy like him with divine abilities.. Kassandra was the true once in a millennium prodigy. 

Crack!! 

Kassandra was taken aback but quickly recovered her composure and started making hand signs with her palms and fingers. 

"Give up!" said Kahn as he staabed and tried to crack open the protective barrier using Lucifer and land a finishing blow on the raven sorceress. 

"Dream on!" she replied. 

However, before Kahn could break past their defenses, Brunhilde's body shone blinding white. 

The survival instinct alarmed him of an impeding doom and the he was rooted on the spot. 

[This suicidal bitch!] cursed Kahn as he pulled out Lucifer from the barrier and tried to escape. 

BOOOOMMM!!!! 

Another ear-deafening explosion occurred and the whole arena was blinded by a bright white flash. 

The entire battlefield shattered in seconds and nothing but a gigantic dust cloud spread throughout the arena. 

And finally after 3 minutes.. The battleground.. Or whatever that was left of it became visible to the audience. 

On the left side of the ring, lay Kassandra with multiple gashes and bruises on her body.

Her beautiful face completely cover with blood and her arms full of burn marks. 

Her epic rank robes torn from place to place while the yellow orb she used to channel magic was completely broken as she used it at the last moment to save herself from the mortal danger after she self-destructed Brunhilde. 

*cough* *cough* Kassandra coughed out an ample amount of blood as her bloodied face looked towards the other end of the battlefield. 

Two kilometers away, among the debris of the battlefield… lied a man in tattered black pants. 

His longcoat and shirt ripped out and his naked upper body exposed to the whole empire. His budging muscles and manly build appeared in everyone's sight. 

In the last moment, Kahn used quicksilver to escape but since Brunhilde's body was so big.. He was still caught in the explosion that could've killed him. 

And the price he had to pay for it was Drakos Armor being destroyed to save his life… AGAIN! 

His bloodied and disheveled figure that had multiple cuts, bruises and bleeding wounds all over his body became visible to Kassandra. 

Both sets of eyes met each other and Kahn finally stood on his feet using Lucifer as support. He gazed at the sorceress in front of him whose condition wasn't any different.

All of their skills and swords were gone. And now only two warriors remained in this bloody battle. 

"Ha ha ha! 

Ha! Ha ha! 

Hahaha! Hahahahahaha!!" 

Kahn started laughing in a maniacal tone as he pointed his blade towards the opponent and gazed at Kassandra. 

His body covered in blood and eyes filled with madness. 

"I, Kahn Salvatore… declare you, Kassandra Mikealson.."

He spoke and announced.. 

"As the strongest!"
