Starting With an SSS-Rank Swordsmanship Talent

Chapter 381: Loras Vs Marco

Marco whose body was drenched in blood looked incredibly terrifying. He moved his eyes towards Limuel, making the latter shudder subconsciously.

“So it’s you…”

His horse had already been killed so he walked towards Limuel with heavy footsteps. Each step left a bloody footprint on the ground.

Suddenly, a figure blocked Marco’s path.

It was Loras Marchan.

“I admire your courage, but you must stop here.”

Hearing this, Marco didn’t say anything and just brandished his swords ferociously!

“Get out of my way!”

Loras frowned and quickly made his move.

Clang!

Sparks flew violently in all directions after their weapons collided.

Marco didn’t stop. He released a series of slashes imbued with his mana.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

His swords were too fast for even Limuel to see their trajectories!

However, Loras wasn’t your average Transcendent Knight. He used his instincts to defend against Marco’s speedy strikes.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

How does he still have this much energy after recklessly forcing his way here?

Loras was shocked by Marco’s seemingly inexhaustible mana.

Clang!

The two clashed a dozen times, causing shockwaves with every collision!

No one dared to get closer to them, afraid that they would be killed by the immense force of the two Transcendent Knights.

Limuel who was watching their battle was stunned.

Loras was no ordinary fighter. He was even recognized as one of the strongest Transcendent Knights in Harune! However, such a formidable warrior was now fighting toe to toe against an exhausted warrior.

Should I help Loras?

He thought for a moment.

He was confident in Loras’ strength, but he didn’t want another accident to happen.

Thinking about this, Limuel’s eyes flashed with killing intent. He silently imbued mana into his horsetail whisk and squeezed his legs, urging his mount to move forward.

In the next moment, he swung his horsetail whisk, bringing about a multitude of wind blades that hurtled towards Marco!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Marco was focused on his battle with Loras so he failed to detect the sneak attack.

“Limuel, are you looking down on me?!” Loras swung his warhammer and erased the wind blades from existence!

Boom!

Marco was taken aback. He realized that those wind blades were aimed at him, but why did his opponent block them?

Baffled, he looked at Loras who was glaring at Limuel.

An internal conflict?

He thought.

Limuel didn’t expect Loras to destroy his wind blades. “Loras, what are you doing?! We are at war! Are you planning to be stubborn like that idiot, Edgar?!”

Hearing this name being mentioned, Loras’ face darkened.

“Don’t interfere! This is my last warning for you!” He muttered, his tone laced with threat.

Limuel was incensed.

Things were developing beyond his control again.

“Suit yourself!” He snorted, clearly afraid of Loras.

He noticed that the ten thousand warriors brought by Marco had been mostly annihilated. Only a thousand of them remained, stubbornly resisting their troops.

Once the remaining enemies were gone, the soldiers on the eastern walls wouldn’t be able to stop them from besieging the fortress!

Have fun fighting with that madman, while I collect more merits! Once this battle is over, I will get enough resources to attempt a breakthrough to the Mythical realm! By then, let’s see if you can still strut around in front of me!

Limuel sneered in his mind.

He ignored them and went ahead to facilitate the siege on the eastern walls.

However, just when he was about to strike the remaining thousand soldiers, he heard a commotion from the eastern gates.

“FOR ASTANIA!!!”

Thousands of cavalrymen suddenly poured out from the gates, rushing towards them with overwhelming momentum!

Moreover, he recognized the two people leading the charge.

It’s them!

One was the man who killed Edgar, while the other was the man who had almost killed him.

He subconsciously stopped his mount, hesitating to join the battle.

He gritted his teeth and chose to remain in the back lines.

I will preserve my strength for now. Once they are exhausted, I will lead my men to demolish them!

He told himself, but he knew that he was only making excuses.

However, he wasn’t the least bit ashamed.

History is written by victors! I will win this war and leave a legendary mark in Harune’s history!

While he was daydreaming about the future, more than fifty thousand cavalrymen had already stepped out of the eastern gates.

Leading them were Alaric and Galanar!

At this moment, Alaric noticed Marco fighting with another Transcendent Knight further within enemy lines.

“Galanar, follow me!” Alaric shouted as he urged his horse to move towards Marco’s location.

Hearing his words, Galanar followed him without hesitation.

The two led a small unit composed of fifty Elite Knights to push their way into the heart of the enemy’s formation!

Harune’s troops blocked their path, preventing them from advancing further!

Seeing this, Alaric snorted. He didn’t even bother to use his sword techniques against these cannon fodder. With a series of casual strikes, he killed hundreds of enemies!

The corpses of those he had killed turned into ice and broke into tiny fragments!

Galanar and the others were already used to this so they weren’t surprised, but Harune’s troops were terrified after witnessing his unusual power!

With Alaric’s intimidating power, the enemies subconsciously made way for them.

Limuel who was watching this was furious.

“What are you idiots doing?! Stop them at once! Don’t let them destroy our formation!” He roared.

Once their battle formation collapsed, they would be pushed back by the enemy!

How could Limuel allow this?

“Shield bearers, porcupine formation! You must hold out even if you bleed!”

“The rest of you, encircle them! Once they are surrounded, kill them!”

Limuel issued a series of commands.

The military officers quickly relayed his orders to the troops.

In the next moment, a batallion of shield bearers consisting of eight hundred men suddenly blocked Alaric’s group form advancing.

However, Alaric didn’t seem to have the intention of slowing down.

He gathered mana into his short sword and activated its engraved ability.

“Destroy them!” He shouted coldly.
