Overgeared

Chapter 805

Gyuratan was forced to defend against a sword that struck like a lightning bolt and a sword that stung like a bee. Gyuratan’s armor was pierced, and he coughed up blood. Mercedes didn’t give him time to have a break. In front of her dual swords, Gyuratan’s hands and feet were tied up.

‘To a human...!’

“Two Storms.”

Peng!

Pepepepeng!

The swords increased in speed. Mercedes’ unique technique, which took advantage of sword energy, assaulted Gyuratan. She attacked and then backed away to a distance of three meters before repeating it. As she wielded her swords, her strikes were light enough to be fast and clean.

“Kuk...!” A groan emerged from Gyuratan’s mouth as he defended himself against the swords. It was hard for him to cope with Mercedes’ anomalous attacks where the attack distance changed in real time. The fight would be up to here.

‘Indeed!’

Things were flowing as everyone expected. The strength of the Fourth Knight was special since he protected the Red Knights. However, the First Knight was the peak of the Red Knights. The Fourth Knight couldn’t be stronger than the First Knight. Mercedes’ victory was already decided.

“Ahh...”

“Sir Mercedes...!”

The noble knight defended the emperor who had suppressed her in the past, and she also defended the honor of the old hero whom everyone had thought was corrupted. This image of Mercedes punishing Gyuratan with her bloody body was imprinted onto the knights. Some knights were so inspired that they started crying. They were happy that their object of admiration existed right beside them.

However, this was the reason why...

Puk!

“...!!”

Mercedes’ crash caused a greater impact.

“S-Sir Mercedes!”

Gyuratan discarded swordsmanship. He was a great demon now, not the Fourth Knight. As such, he started to counterattack, and the screams of the knights filled the hall. However, Mercedes couldn’t hear anything. Her world was calm as she was caught in the explosion Gyuratan had created.

‘Ah...’ Mercedes’ time flowed slowly. Lightning demonic energy rose from Gyuratan’s body like a haze. The hall filled with lightning that it couldn’t endure, and the emperor was shouting with an expression she had never seen before. Everything was slow. One second was one minute, ten minutes, one hour...

The images of the old heroes passed through Mercedes’ mind. Knights wearing red armor… The big backs, dependable smiles, and warm teachings of those who stood at the forefront of the battlefields came to her mind. Mercedes was filled with images of the past as Gyuratan’s lightning fist flew toward her.
