City Of Witches 637

Chapter 637 – #128_Labyrinth(8)

#637

One.
So far, I have competed twice with the 22nd tier witch.

Dorothy Sahaquiel and Bianca Bellillie.
The result is 1 win and 1 draw.
Compared to the old days when it was like a rainbow, it would be a remarkable achievement.

However, it was difficult to say that the result was only Siwoo’s.

In the case of Bianca, the trick she put in place to prevent Siwoo from escaping caught her on the heels.
More than anything, it was not Siwoo himself who drove her to her pinch, but her unconsciousness awakened as her heart stopped.

In Dorothy’s case, her goal was to “Capture unscathed,” So she dragged her time away from the vantage point.
If she had pushed her forward without giving her time to draw her magic circle leisurely, there was a high probability that her conversion would not have been reversed even once.

Of course, if you get fatally wounded here and the monster in your unconscious comes out, it might be possible to fight on an equal footing like Bianca did.

However, it bothers me that the negotiations over the body broke down during the ‘trial’.

It is unlikely that the unconscious mind that once again took over the body will solve the crisis and return the body sweetly.
No, it may not come out at all and just ignore it, or perhaps it may have already disappeared.

In other words, it is the first time to see a match on completely equal conditions with the 22nd hierarchy.

“…….”

Looking at this place with her cold eyes without a word from her, she lacked her outward splendor.
For example, there was no sign of trying to use various artifacts in a flashy way, or using overwhelming power that would be intimidating just by looking at it.

She just spreads her haze and looks this way with her cool eyes.
I can’t discuss her hierarchy with her momentum alone, but from her appearance, I can only feel the magical power of a great witch.

But if she looks deeply into her dark eyes like hell, she sees something beyond that.

Condensed power without any waste.
Like a blade lurking in the darkness, the mana prepared to fire silently.
The eyes of a butcher endlessly searching for where to cut.

-Wheein!

When you think about it calmly, Siu’s fighting ability is at the level of the 21st tier.
However, if you enter the semi-runaway state through the ring, you will reach the 22nd level, albeit briefly.

The angel’s ring began to accelerate.
The condensation of magic that rotates in a spiral brings dangerous power to every part of the body.

It was Linne who moved first.
Her new model, which was standing with her sword pointed, is disorganized as if it were flowing down.

There is no sound even though it is an explosive leap.
Evidence that all the force that would eventually be dissipated is used to launch without waste.

“Swoop!”

Chase the black trail that can only be seen blurry and prepare for a countermeasure.

It’s so fast that even Siwoo’s body vision can’t properly follow it, but its movement is as honest as its speed.
Looking at the posture of holding the sword, looking at the angle, it was like passing by and cutting the waist.

Direction is left.

Bell? Shall I poke? Shall I slap you?
Or should we start sword fighting with weapons facing each other?
Siwoo chose one of the options that came to mind in an instant.

-Simplicity and honesty!

The moment the left foot of the armor digs into the hard ground like soft mud and tries to knock out the opponent who is making a relentless charge.

“…… !”

Siu felt a chill run down his spine.
Something dangerous
I have a hunch that if I decide to come from the ‘left’ and act like this, I will be defeated as it is.

-Paching!

Clash battle.
Siu changed the grip bird by rotating the window sill like a windmill.
At the same time, the sword strike, heavily wrapped around the spear that blocked the ‘right’ waist, deflected sparks.

“…….”

The positions of the two people who intersected in an instant.

What happened?
It’s just embarrassing.

Siwoo, the sword witch in front of her, or those who have already entered the ranks of superhumans.
It is close to impossible to react after checking all attacks with the naked eye.
Even so, the battle continues without ending in unison because it predicts the next attack by looking at the preliminary movements.

For example, the position of the feet, the amount of strength in the shoulders.
In the case of Siwoo, he prepared for the next attack by looking at places where magical power was concentrated.

In that sense, her attack that she showed was a sword that could not exist.

Even though all the preparations were saying to aim for the left side, just before the clash, a knife came into the opposite side.
If I didn’t follow my intuition and acted on what I saw, I would have lost a handful of flesh.

Such movements as if they were controlling their inertia freely.

I saw the sword witch.
She was more surprised than Siwoo, who blocked the attack.

Due to the nature of Rinne’s sword, which overturns the foundations of the laws of physics, the first move is the most powerful.

Even if you know the ability, it doesn’t matter.
If the laws we have seen and become accustomed to in everyday life are completely reversed, the response will be delayed.

However, he proudly blocked the first blow.
I overturned the conventional wisdom that was deeply embedded in my head, and I believed in my intuition rather than what I could see in front of my eyes.

Not only that, but it strikes back like this.

– Boo-woong!
“Synthesis!”

As Rinne’s back leaned back, a long pole swept past the area where her torso had been.

Is this the red branch the red knight used?

A bizarre shimmer condensed into a spiral follows through the few strands of her hair that are being cut off.
I felt it when I passed by with a sword earlier, but it is a very powerful force field.

However, even Rinne, who was good at close combat, she couldn’t afford to enjoy it leisurely.

-Kwaji Jijik! Kwajijik!

The fierce spears that seemed to tear apart her space chased and chased Rinne again and again.
Even though it is an attack that seems to be wielded like crazy with all her power, she is not swayed by her power.
With a perfect attitude, he is continuing his spearheading that deserves praise.

Every time he defended with sword strikes, the distortion field seeped into his intestines, causing terrible pain.

A storm of spears attacking Rinne, who moves at an odd angle and posture.
Finally, a stab that I couldn’t handle with just dodging came flying towards my heart.

– Kwaaang!

Rinne’s body, which raised her sword in the air and blocked it, flew like a cannonball toward her outer wall.
It was not a valid hit.
While her body was flying, she stopped in mid-air.

“Damn it….”

Siu bit his lip.
It’s a really unheard of move.

While she is wearing clothes and holding a weapon that seems to only be in standard kendo posture, when she tilts her upper body to the point where she touches the floor, she shows an evasive motion to the left and walks out to the right calmly.

It feels like fighting a phantom rather than a human being.
The movement was not adapted at all.

Is it also the law of physics?

Like Dorothy’s absolute power, as well as stopping her body in mid-air, it must be seen that she has a special means to control physical phenomena.
Judging by her movements, the type is probably on the inertial side.

I lowered the power of the ring for a moment to catch her breath and corrected her stance.

Even if she moved for a few seconds, her magic power is already at its lowest.
Her muscles and bones screamed as she filled up the lack of mana through repeated amplification.

It was a cost that even Siwoo, who had a vast amount of mana instead of extracting momentary power, could not afford.

It is up to the next 5 seconds for the body to move as it wants.

“…….”

And Rinne saw right through it.

He is apparently drawing more than the permitted power.
Even Rinne, who shares the sword equally with Tiphareth, is showing destructive power that is difficult to receive.

Siu re-accelerates the ring.

-Kiiiiing!

Magical power that is sucked in like water pouring into a bottomless pot.
Correspondingly, the whole body fills up with power and a spiritual body that screams the more power is put in its grasp.

Frontally activates the Distortion Field to its maximum level.
Let’s twist and twist the waves of distortion pulled out to the limit,
Like the peak of a morning glory right before blooming, it is concentrated at the extreme point of the window.

A violent use that would normally be unthinkable.
After suppressing the resistance of the red branch, which goes crazy and tries to go against the master, with overamplified magic power,
This single thrust rivals a full-on javelin.

The important thing is how to open the window.
If you hastily take a player and are evaded, you will lose your back.

Therefore, Siu grabbed the spear like a harpoon and lifted it up.
Waiting counter set-up.

The moment she invades Siu’s gap to attack, the red branch will condemn the intruder.

How will it come out?
After getting ready, Siu looked at Rinne.

A change occurs in Rinne’s face, which has remained unchanged throughout.

“Be impertinent.”

It is a ghastly madness that has been carved out of the face of a yaksha that does not shy away from struggle.

Yes.
It was the laugh of a person caught in the provocation that Siwoo wanted.

In fact, Siwoo’s act of stopping his feet and declaring that he will hold the counter might be self-inflicted.

If Rinne had a very simple long-range countermeasure,
Or, if you wait for Siwoo to fall out of the pool by taking enough time, it is a strategy that can be destroyed very easily.

A wise witch does not dare to jump into the mouth of an open serpent.
I’ll be able to suppress it effectively through other methods.

However, this has a completely different meaning to a swordsman, if not to a witch.

Waiting for the enemy in a position where it is clear how to attack and which route to attack.
This means ‘Come in if you have confidence’ and at the same time, it is different from the provocation command ‘I will knock you down with this no matter what you do’.

And Linnaeus was a witch full of fighting spirit who was willing to respond to the provocation, and she was a fighter.

She doesn’t always have to be stronger than her opponent.

It just needs to be above the opponent’s head for a moment to decide the win or loss.
It’s enough if you can turn a 7v3 fight into a 5.1vs 4.9 even for an instant.

“Bear it.”

Rinne lowered her stance as much as possible with her brother-in-law, and her mana spread behind her.
A black haze that appears as if ink has been released.

The haze painted the world in contact with black and white.

Light tones in white.
Dark tones are black.
As the scenery of white and black spreads, the violent trembling of magical power subsides.
A terrible silence replaced the empty seat.

Siwoo couldn’t properly grasp what was going on with his eyes.

All I can confirm is….
The black and white colors that were spreading in a flash transformed the landscape of the area like an ink-and-wash painting.
Except for the faintly glowing red branches, the rest were deprived of their original color.

And.

“The Black and White World.”

A voice leaking through lips in a world that has lost its noise and color.

Thousands of lives and thousands of deaths were cut.
The only philosophy that hasn’t broken away from the spiral of death and death is.
Tenacity towards strength.

Black Attitude cried silently.

Color is back

The scruff of Siu’s neck missed his spear and collapsed on his knees.
The blood that gushed like a fountain through the gaps in the broken armor also regained its bright red color.
