Chapter 211 - Shirou vs Rakan 1

Jack Rakan was very annoyed, because he didn't get the chance to test how strong Shirou is.

The mystery of how strong the first child of one of his best friends was made him really curious.

And when he had time to at least spar with Shirou, he couldn't find Shirou at his oasis at all, because Shirou had already left to Graninus with Rin.

Therefore, to made his wiah came true, which is to test Shirou's strength, Rakan make an original and hasty plan then immediately teleported to Granicus and immediately carried out a plan that could be said to be rather evil and dangerous, so that he could get what he wanted.

And now, Rakan feels very happy because the plan he made has been successfully implemented. Because right now Shirou is look very angry in and ready to attack him anytime soon, because Rakan is make Negi's life in danger.

And Rakan knew, that Shirou would attack him with immense killing intent. And it was according to what he wanted, a thrilling battle that risked each other life.

"Your attack speed is indeed far beyond my attack speed brat!" Rakan said while making a shield using his artifact so he could defend against Shirou's attack. While at the same time he making a new sword to attack Shirou. "But with only using a long ranged attacks you won't be able to defeat me! If you're a real man, let's have a sword fight in close quarters combat!"

All the swords that Shirou shot at Rakan, were successfully restrained by Rakan thanks to the large shield that Rakan made. And all the swords that Rakan shoots at Shirou, is block by Shirou using only a single layer of Rho Aias, which appears automatically when Shirou receives a long ranged attack from the enemy. And in Shirou's hands Kanshou and Bakuya was appeared instantly just when Rho Aias had disappeared.

"Close combat is okay for me," Shirou said with a smile. "But what if we do the battle elsewhere? Because if the two of us fight in the middle of the city, this city will probably suffer heavy damage from our fight."

"Hoooh, take the fight elsewhere, huh? So that this Granicus town doesn't fall to pieces?" Rakan said who didn't look surprised after he hear Shirou's words, because Nagi used to say the same thing when he was fighting enemies in the middle of the city. "You really are similar to Nagi, in terms of demeanor and face. You two really are people who are too kind to other people. But I warn you, you won't be able to beat me or take your anger out on me because I made your little brother like that. Because I am much stronger than you!"

"You are strong or not then you can prove it in a battle!" Shirou shouted. "And I'll make sure that I don't lose to you!"

Outside the city of Granicus, in a fairly large desert, Rakan and Shirou facing each other. Rakan is holding a large sword that is more than one meter long, while Shirou as usual only uses the twin Falchions who have always been his most beloved weapon, namely Kanshou and Bakuya.

In the place that not far from where the two of them facing each other. Negi, Chisame and Rin are waiting for the start of the fight between Rakan and Shirou. Negi and Chisame looked a bit worried, as they had both heard from Takamichi and Evangeline, about how strong Rakan was.

As for Rin, she didn't look worried at all. Because she knew that neither Shirou nor Rakan had any intention of fighting seriously.

"Hmm they've been facing each other like that, for over three minutes and not moving at all," Chisame said. "When did the two of them will fight?"

"They can fight whenever they want, maybe right now they are looking for the right moment to start the fight," Negi said who didn't really understand what was going on between Shirou and Rakan.

"Those two aren't looking for the right moment to fight," Rin said while eating the apple she had popped in the empty air. "They're watching and analyzing the enemy they're going to fight to find out what kind of abilities the enemy will be up against, only high-level fighters who use brains and instincts like the two of them can do that kind of analysis. Even your father Thousand Master can't do the same thing that the two of them are doing."

"Eeeh dad can't even do what Shirou-Nii and Rakan did? Does that mean dad's skill level is much lower than the two of them!" Negi said who was surprised to hear Rin's statement. "E-even though father is the strongest magician in the world who is feared by many because of his great fighting ability!"

"He is indeed one of the great and strong fighters," Rin said as she devoured his apple. "But as you know, Nagi Springfield is the type of person who relies too much on talent and instinct in a fight. So a battle that has to rely on tactics and cleverness is not his forte."

"So you could say that Negi-Sensei's father is the type to punch first and ask later, while Shirou-kun and that muscular daruma he is facing right now are the type of fighter who is superior to Negi-Sensei's father," Chisame said with a sigh.

"Well, the instinctive type of fighter like the Thousand Master shouldn't be underestimated either," Rin said. "Believe it or not, Nagi Springfield has been able to duel evenly over and over again against Jack Rakan who is arguably superior in terms of experience and ability. And in the duels they do there is never a winner."

After ten minutes had passed, Shirou and Rakan finally started to move. Both of them doing dash and when their swords collided there was a terrible shockwave that appeared due to the impact of the clashing swords. Rin, Negi and Chisame's bodies were thrown a few meters back due to being hit by the shockwave.

Shirou can match the reach of Rakan's tall sword, because currently Shirou is in his adult form who also has a decent height so he doesn't have too much trouble fighting against Rakan.

Rakan is superior in terms of strength, his physical power is surpassing Shirou. But Shirou was able to keep up with Rakan without look troubled, thanks to the Reinforcement he did to the max.

After clashing swords for more than three minutes. Shirou and Rakan have begun to understand what kind of abilities the enemy they are fighting has. And they decided to take the fight they were currently doing to an even higher level.

Rakan took out a dozen swords using his artifact that went straight into the ground. And then he threw the swords one by one at Shirou at a speed that surpassed the speed of sound.

And Shirou with unbelievably fast reflexes fired a sword at the sword that Rakan threw at him at the same speed. So the sword that was thrown by Rakan couldn't hit Shirou at all.

After the sword was thrown by Rakan, the attack from Rakan didn't stop at all because at this time several very large swords appeared above Shirou's head and were ready to fall towards Shirou.

But Shirou also did the same with Rakan, he projecting a two swords that were much bigger than the giant sword that Rakan had raised above his head. Ig-Alima and Sul-Sagana are two super large swords owned by the god of war Zababa. Of course the two giant swords that Shirou brought out were not the real ones. Because using divine constructs to fight Rakan was too much even for Shirou.

Seeing a two giant swords that immediately will fall on him. Rakan didn't look panicked, but he knew that the quality of the sword that was about to strike him was far better than the giant sword he had made. And the speed with which the two swords fell onto his head was much faster than he thought…
