Chapter 162 - War Game (3)

I activated my strength-boosting ability and pulled out my other sword from my inventory. I could see that the men were quite surprised when my second sword suddenly appeared.

I'm showing all my tricks, aren't I? I hope this doesn't compromise me too much.

"And now." And with a smile, I disappeared again. This time, I appeared behind the men. I passed them so quickly that they didn't notice me. Desperate, they tried to turn around and take cover.

But it was too late.

"Hell kaios. Fire." A skill and a magic spell hit them at the same time. My Hell kaios skill cut through their armor, and my fire magic cooked their bodies.

And with my swords, I finished them off, hitting the same place my Hell Kaios skill had hit earlier. I tore large holes in their armor and hit them both simultaneously.

The two men groaned in pain and fell, making a big thud because of their heavy armor.

I sighed and put away my sword with healing ability in my inventory again. Only my black sword was enough from now on unless annoying enemies like them showed up again.

"But even if I call them annoying, they were pretty easy to defeat." I walked away, leaving the two behind.

Luckily, after walking for a few more minutes, I had finally found my main enemy in this game. It was the captain, Hyakinthos Cilo—a tall and handsome man.

His hair was brown and long, and his eyes were bluish-gray. If I were a woman, I might fall in love with him just because of his looks.

"Hello," I said. Anger was stamped on his face. I lifted the corners of my lips when I saw his hand trembling. He held his sword tightly, almost breaking its handle.

"You..." He gritted his teeth.

"You've got quite a frightening expression. You didn't expect that, did you? I don't think even your God expected it."

"Don't you dare talk about the God Apollo!"

"But I didn't say anything. So what do you intend to do with this." I pointed to his sword and then raised mine. Cilo stared at the dark blade of my sword, and I could see fear in his eyes.

He probably knew everything I was capable of. Was he watching everything I was doing somehow? There's no way of knowing, but if that's the case, he'll act cautiously.

"Oh? You're going against my expectations." And then, I was attacked by him. Since he was at level three, he quickly approached me. He was stronger than the others, but I still easily blocked his sword.

After blocking his sword, I used magic to create fireballs that flew toward him.

"That won't work!" But he masterfully sent them all and ran towards me again.

"You can dodge well even in this tiny corridor. You're quite skillful." I could see a smile on Cilo's face as I complimented him.

Our swords clashed again, and I kept calm. I just started to receive his attacks and began to take a few steps back. I could see in Cilo's expression that he thought he had the upper hand.

But I was only joking.

My hand wasn't shaking; his attacks were too weak for me. I had upped my basic abilities too much.

"Oops." I decided to attack. My sword clashed with Cilo's sword.

"Urgh!" He groaned and jumped back. He was already all sweaty from his continuous attacks. He still needed to utilize his skill called [Aro Zephyros]. I would like to see him use it.

Should I instigate him?

Using fire magic again, I started attacking him. I was creating fireballs that were increasing in size and flying at higher and higher speeds. Cilo clicked his tongue and managed to get closer to me.

"You're skilled, but you're too slow. You should utilize a skill, or you won't be able to do anything against me." I stepped back, and his blade passed in front of me, not even touching me.

I then spun my body around and stood with my back to Cilo. After that, I started to run.

The corridor was long, so it was no problem.

"!" After seeing me far away, Cilo finally decided to utilize his skill called [Aro Zephyros]. It was a rather impressive fire magic that could easily kill a person.

'Yeah, I wanted to see that.' I stopped running and looked back, only to see a big giant flame spinning, flying towards me at high speed. Then, I raised my two hands, letting my sword fall.

I just wanted to see that; it was very cool.

But I also want to give him hope.

I created protection with water magic. However, my protection was easily broken by Cilo's ability. My defense was penetrated. I could feel the heat of his skill on my skin.

Then, I was hit.

Feeling hellish heat all over my body, I was thrown backward after being hit.

"HAAAAA!" I screamed after falling to the ground near the end of the corridor.

Then, I closed my eyes and remained on the floor, not moving.

'Aren't I a great actor?'

I heard Cilo's footsteps approaching me soon after, and I could hear a sinister laugh coming from him. I gave a smile and then slowly opened my eyes.
