Last Breath

"Ding! Congratulations on the host for completing the task."

"You have received Sword of the Unforgiven. Do you wish to receive it?"

"Ding! Congratulations on receiving the skill Steel Tempest. Do you wish to cultivate it?"

Hearing the system in his mind, he just smile resplendently and said: "Yes."

"Ding! Sword of the Unforgiven is now received. Sword of the Unforgiven passive is now activated, Flow."

"Ding! Congratulations on Host in cultivating the Steel Tempest skill."

"Steel Tempest mastery is now available. Reminding Host to increase the efficiency of the Steel Tempest."

"Steel Tempest: A skill that allows the Host to stab fast in the blink of an eye in a straight line, damaging enemies.

"If the Stab hit's an enemy, a stack of Rage of the Unforgiven will be accumulated. If it receives two stacks, the third Steel Tempest will turn into Tornado."

"Enemies Hit by Tornado will be Airborne and they are defenseless in the air for about 2 seconds."

"If cast while dashing, Steel Tempest will strike as a circle."

"This... This thing is OP! As expected of Yasuo... His skills are really top notch." Agi cannot believe what he was hearing as he was excited.

"But... Where is the Sword? I... I don't see any sword." He was looking around the place but didn't find any sword that his system has given to him.

He was about to walk towards a tree when his system rang in his head.

"Think of the word Sword of the Unforgiven and say Equip in your mind so you can equip the Sword of the Unforgiven in your storage." The system said in his mind.

"Storage?" When he said this word, a box with squares appear in front of him all of a sudden that it startled him.

"This..." He takes a closer look and saw a sword emblem on a small square.

Looking at it, he now understands it and said in his mind: "Sword of the Unforgiven, Equip."

Suddenly with his hands in the air gripping, it shone flawlessly and a sword appears in his hands.

"This... This is so cool!" Looking at the sword in his hands, he cannot help but look at it with awe and reverence.

The hilt of the sword was shining with silver light color. Its pommel has a winding mark, gathering in a circle. The handguard was a wind that was blown in the air as if it was trying to eat the blade. The blade of the sword was long, just like the Japanese katana however it was longer.

He swings the sword around and his system rang in his head.

"Sword Mastery + 1"

Hearing the system in his mind after each swing of his sword, he started to understand what was his system saying in his mind.

After all, he was a gamer so he already understands the gist of it.

Each time he swung his sword in the empty air, he will always hear the word sword mastery in his mind because of the master in swords.

Agi looked at the sword in awe and started to swing it around.

He first stabs and slashes towards the empty air. He also sometimes slice and dash which he will use the sword combined with physical attacks such as kicks and punching.

After practicing for a long time, the mastery in his sword that requires to have at least 100 points has now reached level 1. It now needs 1000 points before reaching Sword Mastery 2 which will increase his damage by about 20%.

He starts practicing the Steel Tempest as soon as he already reaches Sword Mastery 1.

"Okay. Breath in, breath out. Hooooo..." Agi started to breathe heavily and looked towards a tree with eyes focused on it.

He started to hold the sheath of the sword easily while his other hand on the grip.

"Haaaaa!" He pulled the sword out of the sheath and stab towards the tree.

Whoosh!

As fast as the wind, Agi felt his hands go numb and especially his wrist since the skill Steel Tempest requires a flick caused by the wrist and the sword will shift sideways, creating a force of the wind acting as an extra distance. When he stabs towards the tree, he felt as if he didn't touch anything and looked forward curiously.

He saw the small hole in the size of a huge man's fist. He was dumbstruck when he saw the hole in the tree in front of him.

He looked at the sword with dumbstruck expression and said: "This... Did I just became a powerful person?" He paused for a bit and started to laugh: "Hahaha... Nah... Just like expectation vs reality. I know that in this world there are so-called cultivators and I'm weaker than them. Way weaker." He started to criticize himself when suddenly his system rang in his head.

"Ding! New Task."

"Task: Go deeper into the forest to find a demonic beast."

"Reward: leveling system unlocks and skills, Last Breath."

"Warning: Do not attack a beast that doesn't have a red arrow above their head. A demonic beast will always have an arrow above their heads while normal beast will sometimes only have green and red arrows."

Hearing what his system had said to his mind, he became excited and agitated: "Then, I need to hurry up and find a demonic beast inside the forest before the tournament starts."

Saying that he started to go deep inside the forest.

..........

Deep inside the forest, two women are battling a huge beast with deep pitch black eyes and a huge body.

The two women are panting heavily as they started to hold on their stomachs.

One can see that when they hold onto their stomachs, they can saw a light releasing from their hands.

"Sister, did you already call for reinforcements?" the woman wearing a white dress asked the older woman in beside with urgency.

"Not yet. They are about to come. We just need to install a bit more time until they arrive." The older woman in front of him said coldly while looking at the beast in front of her with cold eyes: "As expected of the King of the Forest. A 1st Level Foundation establishment stage strength. Even though its strength is only at the pseudo level of the 10th Qi Condesation stage, its strength is comparable to a genuine Foundation Establishment cultivator in early stages."

She sucked in a cold breath and started to hold the sword on her waist.

She looked at his younger sister and said: "Just hang on. We can win this."

Hearing what his older sister had said, she gritted her teeth and nodded heavily.

The beast in front of them roar out loud and started to pounce on them.

Whoosh!

The beast slash towards them with its claws and the woman blocks it by shifting her body sideways.

The younger sister jumps above and started to lash towards the beast head.

"Argh! Take this! Flowing Snake!" The sword in her hands started to wiggle as it gets longer. It swam towards the beast head and the demonic beast was stab on its head.

Roar!

The demonic beast roars out loud in agony and it started to hold its head that was bleeding because of the stab of the younger woman's sword.

The older sister looked at the demonic beast in front while panting heavily: "Did that do the trick?" The sword in her hands was about to fall down because of the injury she receives when she blocks the demonic beast attack adding the shifting that needs balance and sufficient strength, she sustains internal injuries caused by the impact.

The younger woman looked at the older woman before her face turning pale: "Older sister. Watch out!" She started running towards her sister because, the demonic suddenly jump above with its fiery red eyes, looking at her sister.

The older sister cannot believe that the demonic beast still has the strength to jump up high in the air.

She shouted at her younger sister that was coming towards her: "Little sister. Get away from here right now!" If her little sister arrives at where she is standing right now, the young woman will also die.

After all, they didn't have any strength left that can block an attack from above.

The older woman just closes her eyes as she was ready to accept her death when suddenly, they heard a man's voice.

"A demonic beast in the Air? What kind of luck I have? Time to level up!"

A shadow flashed by the young woman and instantly arrive above the huge demonic beast head.

"Be obedient!"

Bang!

Boom!

The demonic was smash down, burying its huge face in the ground. Dead, not moving anymore.

The older woman and younger woman looked at the shadow above the demonic with mouths agape as they cannot believe what they are seeing right now.

"This... What kind of martial skill is that?" The older woman cannot help but looked at the shadow with mouths agape because base on the voice that she heard, the shadow above the demonic beast must be young and its voice belongs to a man.

The young woman's legs started to turn jelly as she was scared shitless at what happened.

"Hmm? Someone was here?" As the smoke created by the dust, the shadow above the demonic beast started to turn clearer.

A man is not in his twenties was holding a long sword on his waist while looking at them with clear sky calm eyes.

His pure white enchanting face was clean. Not even a speck of dust can be seen.

Agi looked at them calmly and said: "You two are?"
