Russ vs Luce
The power of the Black Swordsman, his own body drawn from his own memories of how powerful he was, now stood on the battlefield. It firmly held its sword by its side as it took steps in the crater, encircling Luce.
Unlike before, Russ had been careful not to use a large amount of MC cells, and thanks to his god slayer item, he was able to absorb a substantial number of MC cells as well, allowing him to use this power a bit longer than before.
"Haha, what is this? You think just because you've changed, things will be different now? That's very unlikely," Luce exclaimed.
He went to move forward, but when he did, a large slash cut through the air, and a dark aura emanated from the sword, cutting up the ground. Seeing this, Luce transformed his arm into a shield and was pushed back by the force until it eventually stopped.
