New Plan

Of course, my attack was futile. When it struck the arrow, it only managed to shorten the domain by a lot but still didn't break the arrow. I retreated a few steps and thrust my sword toward it.

[Eighth Stance- Void Thrust]

Bang!

When the tip of my sword collided with the arrow, it managed to stop the arrow this time. It didn't break the arrow but the arrow couldn't move forward and the domain was almost shortened to one-third.

But, I discovered another problem. During this time, Ivy was basically staying neutral. She could attack me but she chose not to. This explains a lot. Even with my increased strength, I am still not matched to fight multiple monarchs.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

[Ninth Stance- Almighty Push]

I gathered a lot of mana and condensed a sword. Without wasting any moment, I slashed the mana sword with the blunt side of my real sword.

Whoosh! Bang!
