However, Ryuga still didn't have the upper hand.
Because this female follower who called herself Hephaestus wasn't just a warrior, she was also a magician, a Kanagami magician.
"— — —"
In the middle of the battle, as long as Ryuga's Katana forced her to retreat, she would immediately chant a short sentence from her mouth.
"Whoosh!"
As if the Thunder God was showing his power, lightning fell from the sky like a forked tree with many branches, striking in the direction of Ryuga.
Although she only chanted a very short sentence, the power of the lightning she summoned was much stronger than the current great magic. Even if Ryuga took it head-on, he would inevitably be injured.
His body's defensive ability was at the lowest level of the 12 Demon Moon. Even if the Hitman Squad's swordsman attacked him with their Katana, they might not be able to cut his skin, and its hardness was not much worse than steel.
But in the face of the lightning that fell from the sky, he had to retreat.
Then, the opponent once again waved her short sword and approached Ryuga, and then her attack was once again blocked by Ryuga, and after falling into a disadvantage, she once again used magic to attack.
Every time she chanted a sentence, according to modern standards, it should only be able to launch a small part of the magic, and the power was limited, but every time she launched a magic spell, it was at least at the level of a great magic spell.
"Is this Kanagami's magician?"
Outside the circle where the two were fighting, Seigo II looked at the lightning surging in the sky and couldn't help but feel creeped out.
"Using the high-speed Holy Word technique, she only needs a sentence to launch a great magic spell, and the power is far above modern magic …"
Because he was a magician, and because he knew too much about magic, he could deeply feel the gap between them.
It was unfathomable, and it made him feel powerless.
"Kanagami's great magic is indeed powerful, but that's not the key."
Liu Xia continuously waved the blade in her hand, causing nearly ten lightning-like slashes to continuously slash out. At the same time, she was secretly pondering in her heart.
"The key is the connection between her swordsmanship and magic. She is incomparably sharp in battle, and her grasp of timing is very accurate. Her sense of smell is too sensitive, and she can switch tactics at the most appropriate time."
That was a skill that couldn't be learned without a long time of fighting on the battlefield, and it was enough to match Ryuga's precise grasp of timing using Future Vision.
Because of this, the fight between the two of them gradually became more and more intense.
"Hahaha! Awesome! To be able to fight with such a swordsman, this trip was worth it! "
The woman chuckled heartily as she forced Liu Xia back with another magic trick. "That's all for today, though! My master sent an order, it seems that it's not suitable for us to decide the winner! "
While she was talking, she raised the Katana was, the, arrogant posture, as if she was going to split the sky.
Ryuga's gaze moved slightly, and he didn't hesitate to wave the Katana in his hands, making two tall flaming tigers emerge from the swords. One in front and one behind, they roared and bombarded the opponent.
However, before the flaming tigers could touch the opponent, the woman's sword slashed down with some kind of strange magic.
In the void, something appeared as if it had torn through space.
It was a two-wheeled war chariot wrapped in purple lightning.
It wasn't a modern weapon, but a war chariot pulled by an animal like a horse in ancient times. It was used to conquer all directions and gallop on the battlefield.
However, what was chilling was that the creatures pulling the war chariot weren't living animals, but two skeletons with huge wings — no, they should be called dragons.
Their form without forelimbs made people involuntarily think of the Flying Dragon, a Fantasy Breed that had long been extinct in the surface world and stood at the top of all Fantasy Breeds.
The moment the bone dragon pulled the war chariot through the air and appeared, an abundant shock wave suddenly exploded, making Ryuga have to grab the roof of the chariot with both feet to stand firm. Grey and the second king behind him were blown several meters away.
After the huge shockwave exploded, the two Flaming Tigers that were charging nearby were turned into nothingness without any resistance, disappearing into the air.
Following that, the woman boarded the war chariot and rode the bone dragon into the sky.
"That's it for today. We'll decide the winner another day!"
The woman controlled the war chariot to fly high in the sky. The war chariot was surrounded by lightning, making the entire war chariot look like a thunder dragon in the thick fog above.
"Kaboom!"
Then, a thunderbolt descended from the sky and landed on the second king, who had yet to stand firm.
"Master!"
Grey let out a cry of surprise and then raised the Death Scythe in her hand, trying to resist the thunderbolt by absorbing magic power.
"Unreasonable! Unreasonable! Unreasonable! Unreasonable! Stop it! Grey! No matter how much magic power you absorb, it's impossible to fight against that thing! "Yard shouted anxiously in her hand.
The second king's expression also changed, and he hurriedly reached into his pocket. He seemed to have a countermeasure, but the thunderbolt came extremely fast and didn't give him any time to launch a spell.
Chi la!!
At this critical juncture, several streaks of Sword Qi soared into the sky and collided with the thunderbolts that were descending from the sky in a straight line. In a blinding flash of light, the thunderbolts and Sword Qi eliminated each other and disappeared in mid-air.
"Hmph! You're lucky to have survived, Magician … "
The woman's displeased snort faintly came from the sky.
Then, the war chariot that looked like a thunder dragon in the sky turned and left the Magic Eye Train, disappearing in front of their eyes.
It wasn't until the war chariot left that the second king gasped for air. His legs bent, and he knelt on the ground without any grace. Because of the rapid changes in the battlefield and the danger that he could face at any time, his shirt was already soaked in sweat, and he felt a suffocating pressure all the way.
"That war chariot … How … Could it be that she's really the king's most trusted aide …"
Moreover, compared to the physical tension and pressure, the psychological blow he suffered was even more serious.
After he came back to his senses, his eyes gradually became confused. His eyes became empty as if they had lost their consciousness. The expression on his face became more depressed than before, and his whole person had a sense of decadence.
For him, perhaps being scorned and denied mercilessly by the King's most trusted aide was the biggest and most unexpected blow and punishment to him.
Ryuga withdrew her gaze from the war chariot and turned back to look at the second king and Grey.
Grey aside, the second king would probably be unable to recover for a period of time.
