System vs Rebirth

"This is our last spar before going to the forest again. I'm sure that you know it, but I'm not planning to hold back in the forest. I don't care about the speed record because my original plan is to kill as many demons as possible to get their crystal," Anna explained her plan since they were a pair.

"I know. I don't know if I can defeat a Low Level Demon by myself or not, but I'm not planning to back down. My kills might be more than you, who knows." Noel shrugged, turning her explanation into a provocation.

"Heh." Anna raised her sword. "In that case, show me whether you can do it or not."

"You might die." Noel also did the same, pointing it at Anna's neck.

The atmosphere became silent as both of them were observing each other's movement. Noel enhanced his muscle so that he didn't lose against Anna's strength.

The moment Anna slightly moved her foot, Noel jumped forward, taking advantage of that movement to catch her off guard.

However, Anna swiftly struck Noel's sword as if she had been expecting it. In fact, she might make that small movement to invite Noel in.

Once she repelled the sword, she spun her body and used that momentum to attack him.

*Bang!*

The two wooden swords suddenly hit each other again as Noel somehow made a swift swing after getting deflected.

"!!!" Anna widened her eyes because she saw the Spiritual Energy in that one swing. If not for her reaction speed, she would have lost her sword earlier. It seemed both of them almost fell to each other's trap.

'Swift Strike is not fast enough?' Noel narrowed his eyes and took a few steps back to regain some distance.
