The Author's POV

Chapter 314

WIIIIIING!

Staring at the incoming attack, I slashed down.

However, the moment I slashed down, I came to a sudden realization and forcefully stopped myself mid-swing.

"Uk!"

This was probably not a good idea as a groan soon escaped from my mouth and an inexplicable pain coursed through my muscles.

But I didn't have time to care about that.

Coating my fists with wind psyons I punched out, and a ferocious force burst out from my fist.

Puchi!

My punch soon collided with the demon's attack, and the demon was pushed back.

"Khh..."

Gritting my teeth, I glanced towards my right hand, where a large wound appeared. Red blood dripped down from the ground.

Gritting my teeth and withstanding the pain, I glared at the demon opposite me.

For a moment, I forgot about my training. If not for my sudden realization, the sword in my hand would've been long broken into pieces.

There was no way the sword could've withstood the full force coming from the demon's previous attack.

Lifting my sword slightly and seeing that it was still okay, I sighed in relief.

'…Just like Malvil said, I need to be more efficient when defending and attacking.'

Tightening my grip on the sword, I proceeded to take a deep breath.

WIIIIING!

It was at that moment that the demon reappeared in front of me. A sharp force quickly headed in my direction.

Icily staring at the incoming attack, I wasn't panicked. Just as the demon's sharp nails were about to reach me, rotating my heel, my body appeared by the left side of the demon. Clenching onto the hilt of the sword, I slashed down.

Clang—!

To my surprise, the demon was able to react on time. Twisting its torso, the demon blocked my attack with its sharp and sturdy nails.

Once the sword came into contact with the nails, a few sparks flew; however, rather than trying to attack again, I increased the strength of my attack. Sure enough, the difference in our strength was too big.

Before the demon could realize what had happened, its body directly smashed towards the ground.

Bang—!

Raising my leg, I mercilessly kicked the demon in the face.

"Ueeek!"

As soon as my foot landed on the demon's face, the demon let out a strange noise as its body flew backward.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, stomping my foot on the ground and borrowing the momentum from the impact, I shot towards the demon at incredible speed.

—Spurt!

This time, there were no mistakes as my sword cleanly cut the demon's body in half.

"Haaa…haa…"

Without wasting any time, taking out a potion from my dimensional space, I quickly downed it.

Soon enough, the wounds on my body started to heal at an alarming rate.

Bang—!

Just as I finished the potion, five more demons broke through the first line of defense. They all soon turned their attention towards me.

"Fuck..."

Dropping the potion on the ground, I brushed some of the loose hair away from my face and silently muttered.
