Starting With an SSS-Rank Swordsmanship Talent

Chapter 365: Dontos, the Mythical Knight!

The cavalry officers hesitated, but upon seeing his grave expression, they no longer dared to argue with him and reluctantly left.

“You must return alive, Sir Galanar! We cannot defend this fortress without you!”

Galanar forced out a smile when he heard this. Against a Mythical Knight, his chances of escaping were slim.

“Did I allow you to leave?!” A furious shout drifted into his ears.

Galanar looked up and saw a muscular warrior wielding a pair of gigantic axes descending from above like a mountain!

I can’t let him target my men!

Thinking about this, Galanar imbued mana into his broadsword, triggering its engraved ability!

In the next moment, he released a slash that sliced through the air!

Whoosh!

“Hm?” Startled, the muscular Mythical Knight was forced to defend himself.

Bang!

Galanar’s slash left a mark on one of his axes, making him feel a bit surprised.

“You have some strength for a Transcendent Knight, but it’s still lacking compared to a Mythical Knight.” The man snorted upon landing on the ground with a backflip.

Galanar furrowed his eyebrows. Although he didn’t use his full force in that attack, he didn’t expect his opponent to be so durable.

“You are powerful, but you are not the most powerful being I’ve faced. Compared to them, you are average.” Galanar clapped back with a sneer.

Hearing this, the muscular Mythical Knight was enraged. Without saying anything, he imbued mana into his axes and unleashed a series of devastating blows!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Galanar knew that he would be severely wounded if his opponent could land a direct hit. He didn’t dare block the axes. He imbued mana into his legs to increase his movement speed.

Bang! Bang!

Deep craters were formed with each strike from the muscular Mythical Knight’s axes!

Galanar could barely dodge the attacks. As for his mount, it had already been smashed into a meat paste. Its blood and flesh splattering like smashed watermelon!

So powerful!

For the first time, Galanar felt powerless. He had faced numerous foes, but this man was arguably the strongest.

Luckily, his speed is not so great. Otherwise, I would have ended up like my horse.

Suddenly, his opponent stopped his attacks.

“Do you only know how to dodge?” A mocking voice drifted into Galanar’s ears.

Is this guy an idiot? Did he really think that I would fall for his taunts?

He thought to himself, feeling a hint of contempt for his opponent’s crappy attempt at goading him.

Galanar didn’t bother to respond. He turned around and grabbed an ownerless horse. He then squeezed his legs and urged it to climb up the mountain.

Seeing this, the muscular Mythical Knight immediately pursued him while ferociously waving his axes.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Bang! Bang!

Galanar expertly maneuvered the horse to evade his strikes.

There is a ditch up ahead. I just need to lure him there to slow him down.

He was responsible for overseeing the Aklan Pass so he knew where all the trap were located.

The horse he was riding was clearly exhausted so he imbued mana into the poor creature to give it some strength.

“Just a little bit more, little fellow!” He whispered.

Bang! Bang!

The muscular warrior was still pursuing him, clearly intent on killing Galanar. However, he couldn’t outrun a Disaster-grade warhorse.

Suddenly, Galanar maneuvered the horse to leap.

Hm?

The muscular Mythical Knight was surprised by the unexpected move. Before he could realize the situation, he suddenly found himself falling into a deep pit with sharp spikes protruding at the bottom!

Shit! It was a trap! What a cunning bastard!

He immediately imbued mana into his axes and released a powerful blow which destroyed the sharp spikes at the bottom of the pit!

Bang!

When he jumped out of the pit, he found out that his target had already retreated into the fortress. The guy even sent him a mocking smile which made him burn with fury.

“I will kill you!” He roared, his veins protruding in his agitation.

He rushed towards the fortress with heavy strides!

Meanwhile, Galanar commanded the archers and artillery units to aim at the approaching Mythical Knight.

“Kill him! Don’t let him get close to the fortress!”

With the man’s unparalleled strength, his subordinates would only be massacred if he managed to enter the fortress.

Galanar couldn’t allow this to happen!

With his order, everyone aimed at the Mythical Knight.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Suu! Suu! Suu!

Hundreds of arrows and tens of boulders rained down from the sky.

Seeing this, the muscular Mythical Knight snorted.

“Do you think your flimsy little tactics can stop, me, Dontos?!”

He brandished his axes, creating twisters with each strike!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The fearsome twisters destroyed the arrows and boulders, leaving him completely unharmed!

Everyone atop the fortress’ main gate was stunned upon seeing this. They couldn’t believe that someone could actually wield such overwhelming power!

“Mythical Knight! That man is a Mythical Knight!” Someone exclaimed, terror evident in his tone.

“What?!”

“No way! How can we stop a Mythical Knight?!”

Everyone panicked.

To them, a Mythical Knight was a being of unimaginable strength! The thought of confronting someone at that level filled them with despair.

Even Galanar felt helpless. He could no longer calm his troops.

Just as everyone was about to lose hope, the earth-shaking roar of a beast suddenly echoed from the sky!

ROOARR!!!

Shocked, everyone lifted their heads and saw a massive winged creature circling the clouds.

“Zephyr!” Galanar recognized the beast and his eyes immediately brightened.

“It’s His Highness! His Highness Alaric is here!” Almost everyone in the fortress was already familiar with this creature so they were excited upon recognizing it.

The majestic presence of the Catastrophe-Grade beast sent a heavy, mountain-like pressure that forced the enemy troops to kneel!

The man who had called himself Dontos managed to remain standing, but he was also intimidated by the beast’s aura.

“What in the world is that monster?!” He frowned.

As if sensing his gaze, the beast lowered its head and stared at him. It then emitted another loud cry.

Roar!!
