The Author's POV

Chapter 251

In a different area of the dome.

SHIIIIING!

A black dagger pierced through the air in a lightning-fast manner.

KWANG!

Colliding with the metal body of a rapier, a defeating sound rang out, creating hot embers that scattered out.

At the same time, the dagger clashed with the body of the rapier, appearing on the right side of JIn were two twin swords. Raising his left hand, Jin slashed with all of his power.

KWANG!

Once again, a powerful sound rang out. The result of the clash ended up with one person getting pushed back.

"Brother!"

"...He's strong."

Nicholas muttered. Next to him was his sister, Aerin.

Lifting his sleeve, he wiped the blood that trickled down the edge of his lip.

Turning his attention towards his sister, Nicholas asked.

"Aerin, are you injured?"

"No."

"...Good. I'm afraid we have to go all out. We might lose if we don't."

"I agree."

In response to her brother's words, Aerin nodded her head.

"Haaaat!"

Then, with her brother next to her, she charged forward. Their speed was not something anyone could follow with their naked eyes. Within seconds, they were already in front of Jin.

Thrusting forward with her rapier, Nicholas accompanied her movements as he thrust his twin swords forward.

Claaaang—!

This time, it was Jin's turn to be pushed back. The twin's attacks were meticulous and calculated.

Alternating between each other, with no lag in their movements, they both aimed for the most vulnerable part of Jin's body.

Be it heart, lungs, head, liver; they aimed for all of the important organs. To make matters worse, because of how synchronized their attacks were, to Jin, it felt as though he was facing three opponents at the same time.

Slowly, cuts started appearing all over his body. For the next minute or so, Jin was slowly but surely being driven towards a corner. To the spectators, it looked as though he was about to lose.

But.

"Tsk."

Jin suddenly clicked his tongue. Almost instantaneously, a tremendous hue wrapped around his daggers.

Taking a step forward, his body suddenly melted into the darkness.

SHIIIIING!

Appearing right in front of them, Jin thrust his daggers forward as he performed an odd combo. His first strike was a powerful strike that shot up like lightning, followed by consecutive strikes that could seemingly sever rivers.

With each strike, the dagger's pattern became more and more eccentric. At one point, one of the daggers followed a path that was similar to that of a snake. Almost impossible to predict.

Under the barrage of attacks, Aerin and Nicholas both cooperated with each other and tried their best to defend themselves against Jin's weird attacks.

However, they knew that they were once again at a disadvantage. Even though they were going all out, they were still losing.

"Khhh...Aerin"

Pushed back, Nicholas painfully groaned.

"Yes, brother!"

"Let's use that."

"...but—"

"If we don't use it, we will lose. There is no point in saving it."

Nicholas quickly cut her off.

It became painfully obvious to him that they were about to lose. Their opponent was just too strong.

"Understood."

Biting her lower lip, Aerin nodded her head as she raised her rapier in the air.
