120. Battle Against All Valkyrias Part 2

In that instant, Izumi arrived in front of Kyouko while performing a thrust toward the Gabranth in front of Kyouko.

Izumi understood that person's intention to kill Kyouko. And so, Izumi mercilessly stabbed him in the head.

"King of Gabranth, Leowald! DO YOU REALLY WANT TO DIE SO BADLY?" Izumi snapped.

Izumi released his Haki for the third time. A huge pressure assaulted everyone around him. And his pressure even caused the Gabranth King, Leowald, who wanted to get close to Kyouko to kneel.

However, since he couldn't control it properly, Kyouko was also affected and fainted afterward.

Leowald wasn't alone. He was also accompanied by one of his successors. There were also several guards behind him.

It was just that, apart from Leowald, the others fainted after they couldn't withstand the pressure.

Leowald's appearance, which is tall, and muscular with a stern lion-like face, lion ears, and tail, didn't scare Izumi at all. Instead, his expression filled with anger.

Izumi's sword thrust and pierced Leowald's left arm. Then he said,

"Dare to touch her, not only I'll send you to mother earth, but I will also flatten the Gabranth continent to the ground."

Leowald raised his head with a sneer.

"Hahaha, do you think you can destroy the Gabranth by yourself?" He replied with a laugh and mocked Izumi.

*Bang*

Suddenly Izumi appeared behind him without Leowald notice, then Izumi slammed Leowald's head using his foot to the ground.

Izumi's foot stepped on Leowald's head. In a cold voice, he said,

"Don't test my patience, old fart. Don't think just reaching the level of two hundred is strong enough for you. You are lucky enough that our demon lord is kind-hearted. Otherwise, the incident about destroying the bridge at that time would be a massacre instead."

Leowald couldn't see Izumi's movements at all. He even appeared suddenly behind him while carrying a girl in his left hand.

Previously, he caught a glimpse of Izumi's fight against Valkyria. And from that, he felt how dangerous Izumi was. That was why he wanted to take advantage of his weakness, which was the human girl.

He didn't want Izumi to take part in the war between Gabranth and Evila. And after seeing how Izumi cared deeply for that girl, he wanted to take advantage by threatening Izumi.

Leowald himself had no intention of doing anything to the girl. However, his men went too far after misunderstanding his intention.

As a result, not only did Izumi kill his man, but he was also humiliated by being stepped on by him.

If Izumi's strength was only at the level of Aquinas, there was nothing to be afraid of since Leowald had confidence in the Gabranth fighters. But he had seen Izumi's fighting style, sense, and techniques were far stronger than he imagined.

"Hiiro! Come here real quick!"

Hiiro didn't want to create trouble after knowing Izumi's current temper. So he immediately teleported to his side.

"Hey, I managed to gather those Valkyrias in one place. But, it's just temporary. It's a good thing that jamming magic doesn't affect ranged magic."

Izumi nodded to appreciate Hiiro's effort. He knew what he should do.

"Good. You didn't waste your intelligence. Now, help me to teleport them to Xaos." Izumi pointed toward Eveam, Teckil, and Kyouko. Then, he turned to Teckil.

"Teckil. Can you take care of this girl for me?"

Teckil nodded.

"Yeah. But, I want to ask. Are you—"

Before Teckil could finish his question, Izumi interrupted him.

"I'll tell you everything later. We're still on the same side anyway."

"Alright."

After Teckil agreed. Izumi looked in Valkyrias' direction, then he turned to Hiiro.

"Hiiro, teleported them real quick!"

Hiiro immediately transferred them to Xaos. Then, he said,

"For those five Valkyrias, let me take care of them. Just make sure no one would escape."

"Sure."

After that, Izumi turned to Leowald. His cold voice reverberated in Leowald's ears.

"Why don't you just scram already? Do you want me to cripple your successor?"

Leowald gritted his teeth. He wanted to respond, but if he did so, Izumi certainly crippled his son. He knew it just from Izumi's voice alone.

Leowald just grabbed his son while leaving the others behind. Then, Izumi moved toward Valkyrias' direction.

Meanwhile, Hiiro just silently looked at him. To be honest, he was impressed by Izumi's feat. Even though Izumi had the support of him and Judom, he couldn't deny that Izumi was the one fighting against all the Valkyrias alone. Finishing them off one by one in such a short amount of time was no easy feat either since Hiiro himself was already overwhelmed against even one of them. That's all he was helped by Judom.

Izumi faced five Valkyrias at once, they were a spear, halberd, greatsword, rapier, and dual swords wielders. The greatsword swung into Izumi as if it was gonna slap him to death. On his left side was a spear that was aimed at his hip. Having a few ideas in a split second, Izumi deflected the greatsword that was almost slammed at him and then deflected in the direction of the spear's thrust.

*Dang*

Then, without looking at his back, he changed his grip to thrust his sword into his back.

*Clank*

Izumi's sword stopped the dual-wielding swords, and the collision blew one of the swords to the side and collided against the rapier wielder.

At the same time, the halberd wielder attacked him from the front. Izumi immediately grabbed the pole of the halberd, then swirled it around to blast off the other Valkyrias while changing his grip once again to thrust his sword forward.

*Shatter*

"Haa, haa, haa." Izumi gasped. Fighting against 10 Valkyrias wasn't easy. Izumi was exhausted even though there were still 4 left. All of them weren't without a fight either. Even though Izumi's fighting style was unpredictable, they managed to land their attacks that left his leg injured. That way, Izumi's speed would be drastically reduced.

Izumi grumbled in pain from getting injured.

Seeing Izumi's condition, the four Valkyrias immediately launched their attack. But, Izumi curled his lips instead.

One of the Valkyrias realized something, but…

"Heh, it's too late. Traceless Rage!!"

A blizzard domain unleashed and trapped all of them inside. Their movements slowed down, and the snow started to cover their bodies.

Within the domain, Izumi could teleport even if his magic was disturbed by the jamming magic.

He swiftly launched an attack while imbuing his sword with his spiritual energy. Since his sword skills were already high level, coupled with his sword imbued with Busoshoku Haki, his precise attack not only stabbed Valkyria's vital point, but also destroyed the magic crystal. Too bad, Izumi still didn't realize that he could use Busoshoku Haki, right now.

Izumi stored another of Valkyria's body in his storage space.

Successfully destroying the magic crystal on the first target, he disappeared from his spot and appeared behind the other Valkyria while dealing a powerful thrust.

Then, he dealt the finishing blow to the third one.

Izumi pulled out his sword from her body and instantly appeared in front of the last target. He took out another sword and thrust it into her chest. His sword pierced through her body and Izumi pound her to the ground to lock her.

Izumi's foot stomped on her stomach and another sword in his hand prepared to be thrust to destroy the magic crystal inside her.

"Can you tell me where is Avoros' base?" Izumi asked her coldly.

"In your dream!"

"I see. I thought you would tell me. Too bad you didn't appreciate it."

Izumi changed his grip and stabbed her stomach to destroy the magic crystal.

*Shatter*

As if in an instant, all of them were wiped out by Izumi's hands.

And then, with a limp walk, Izumi collected all of the dead Valkyrias. He didn't know how many samples were needed to complete the mission. So Izumi just collected everything he saw. He also picked up the two daggers he threw earlier, then collected all the weapons the Valkyrias were holding.
