Blades clash, and sparks aggressively fly around them.
“Friend! I will assist you!”
Yells Sephilia while clashing swords with White Rose.
They clash several times, without a moment to breathe, and intense sounds echo around us.
The two young guards that were standing next to Sephilia look shocked, as they watch this absolutely furious series of slashes.
“P-princess!? Her moves really are quite nimble. She doesn’t seem to be playing around either.”
Says one of the knights, but I don’t really get why.
“So when our senior said she was the master swordswoman, he wasn’t kidding…”
The other knight has his eyes wide open.
Apparently they thought the princess and the master swordswoman were two different Sephilias.
…But that doesn’t matter right now. I need to help Sephilia.
I make use of the time she gave me to activate Full Grow, taking my physical abilities to the limit.
And then, I immediately start firing to help her, sending fire arrows one after the other towards White Rose.
She quickly dodges them, while still fighting Sephilia, but Sephilia isn’t outdone.
Sephilia makes use of the two on one advantage to shower slashes on White Rose, not giving her a second to counterattack.
It’s a super high speed duel between two people with reflexes far above the average person. Full Grow enhances my vision, so I can just barely keep up, but magic, the crucial piece, wouldn’t.
At this speed, beginner magic won’t do anything.
But still, there’s something I can do. Rather than attack, support with magic.
I signal without using words, and cast Full Grow on Sephilia, increasing the power behind her slashes even further.
She was already strong, so making her even stronger makes her downright overpowered.
Right now, she’s without a doubt the strongest in the world.
And then, she moves to end things, accelerating even more like she’s going a gear higher.
The composure on White Rose’s face is gone, and she starts to try to distance herself from Sephilia, as she sees this battle starting to go poorly for her.
But the world’s strongest swordswoman won’t allow that. She holds down those ideas with overwhelming power and super high speed.
White Rose’s whole body is slowly being filled with cuts, but still, she’s the world’s strongest demon. She fights through willpower and pride, and then she unveils a technique that could be called her extreme special move.
“Tch…! Beast king sword, snake form. Soft Snake Spear!”
She yells, and blocks Sephilia’s slash. When the blades touch, White Rose’s bends, and wraps around Sephilia’s
“…!”
“Beast king sword isn’t just a weapon of speed. There are many techniques like this as well.”
She lifts both Sephilia’s sword and Sephilia herself, waves her in the air, and smacks her on the ground like a whip multiple times.
“Hahahahahaha! Your precious sword techniques don’t mean much if your sword is immobile! Die!”
She swings sideways widely, and smacks her hard into a building’s wall.
“Sephilia!”
It wouldn’t be strange for her to have died instantly from that impact.
“Fufufu, you failed to take that final step.♪”
Sephilia’s sword lost its owner, and rolls right in front of White Rose, who laughs triumphantly.
For a second, despair crosses my mind, but it’s none other than Sephilia who wipes it away.
“Then I will push forward until I take it!”
I hear her, and she jumps out of the dust, approaching White Rose at top speed.
She picks up her sword, and slashes down.
“!?”
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
White Rose holds her sword up vertically, and blocks Sephilia’s attack. But the impact makes her lose her balance, and she’s left almost being pushed down.
Sephilia on the other hand uses the recoil to jump high. She soars into the sky, and looks down at White Rose.
“Guh…!? No, I messed up…”
“Infinity Strike!”
She heads straight for White Rose with what could be called the symbol of Extorion, western swordsmanship.
Not just once or twice either, she thrusts so many times with such speed, that White Rose’s healing can’t hope to keep up.
It’s like if she can’t hit, she’ll thrust until she does.
The rain of sword strikes pours, carves the ground, and leaves a big crater.
Then comes the final attack. She focuses her strength to the limit, and unleashes a Soul Strike.
Of course, White Rose can’t block it, the attack going through her defense and piercing her heart.
A roar echoes through the battlefield, and the dust slowly clears, revealing Sephilia on her feet.
Beneath her is the recipient of her attack, facing upward, but no longer in this world.
