TWO MAGIC CIRCLE

The next instant, I twisted my body and stepped aside. My body seemed weightless as it passed through the rain of arrows and continued towards direct towards Louise. None of then was able to even touch my clothes.

Louise frowned, but she kept calm and waved her hand again. Two magic circled formed below my feet and erupted in chains formed of mana.

The chains extended towards my body, trying to catch me, but I just smirked and continued forward without stopping. When the chains were about to grab me, my body again twisted strangely and avoided them.

This time, Louise's expression finally changed.

In the next second, Louise was in the range of my sword.

*Shing!* With a soft sharp sound, my sword left its sheath and cut towards Louise at incredible speed.

A famous sword technique of one of my past lives, laido.

Louise's eyes opened wide seeing the sword. It moved so fast that she was completely unable to avoid it or conjure any magic.

But at that instant, a magic circle shined on the back of her hand.

[Force Walls]!!!

A translucid barrier made of magic appeared on the path of my sword.

*Clang!!!* A loud metallic noise sounded and my sword was completely stopped. The barrier quivered slightly before returning to normal.

I frowned seeing it and immediately jumped back. The next instant, two mana spears pierced the place where I was just now.

"How expected of a prince, so strong despite just being at the fourth layer. Your nickname of Sword fanatic is well deserved."

Louise said to me with a ridiculing tone. "Unfortunately, it's not so easy to destroy a defensive spell created by a sixth layer mage."

I stayed silent. To be honest, I expected something like this. When I faced sir Raul, I just touched him with my sword without causing any injury. If I wanted to injure him, it would have been hard if I only used fourth layer mana.

After all, the defenses of a sixth layer are not so easy to overcome. If I wanted to break through Louise's shield, I needed to resort to something else.

But just like mages have spells, martial artists have martial skills.

And as someone that reincarnated a few hundreds of times, it's not very hard for me to create a skill powerful enough to destroy her defense.

I took a deep breath and straightened my body. The next instant, an incredible amount of mana flowed into my sword.

Suddenly, a sharp pressure filled the surroundings.

Louise's expression turned grave. She instantly felt something was wrong when she felt the sharp sword intent.

"It looks you learned a pretty good sword skill." She said. "But, do you think a skill is enough to cut through my defenses?"

"You will see." I smiled fearlessly and raised my sword.

A brief transparent glow flashed through the sword blade before disappearing. Then, all the sword intent in the surroundings vanished.

Taking a step forward, I slashed down...

[Reality Render, weakened version]!!!

And under Louise's astonished gaze, her barrier was cut into two.
