94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXqf9YWEJQ

...................

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03yb9hLZUn

The icy blade descended directly toward Khaled's head.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO06hbyzAvr

But—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOkXz29i6Q

At the very last moment...

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ5vU14Ybw

He remembered his grandfather's words.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JYL1EYBcx

"The ring's true power isn't inside it..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOMwkw5Vfy

"It's inside you."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPKeIMrHSG

Khaled's eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNiCpCNYhQ

Then he grabbed the shattered ring stone lying beside him.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryzDnNELhr

Without hesitation—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipoL3Q62st

He slammed it into the slot within the hilt of his Shadow Sword.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG5AbmJwaa

Silence fell.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzo6JJP3Qkr

For a single second.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrg4vjMuIHT

Then—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUvfIkgHBi

BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBYDreVBvx

A massive wave of dark energy exploded from Khaled's body.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanwQMqByRs

The ground trembled.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPc9wjRnNGm

The hills cracked apart.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMooTdAOY2W

Even the icy pressure Radius had created was forced back several meters.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFw2n8FayT

Abdulrahman's eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIXAZkIhxR

"K-Khaled?!"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkvioBlMOL

A colossal storm of darkness spiraled around him.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJjiCqb4me

Then it slowly began to take shape.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVmldBrfC5

Black armor.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cqbSrhFwX

Similar to Shadow Lord's armor.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPmY5KbCFv

But lighter.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSvkqX1H1o

More practical.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejq6HyZ2uE

Built for a true warrior.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaETUPLMI7

As for the sword...

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG8tKakdRp

It had changed completely.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvGze4RiHs

Longer.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKayIDjwpx

Wider.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1QSbZ8ZGY

Glowing violet lines ran across the blade.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fpNh3MR9z

Slowly, Khaled raised his head.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcMWSsi4B6

Both of his eyes had become completely violet.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCIVzKlmJ9

Radius smiled.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFxHkmd3gM

"Much better."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDndZZhcKU

He tightened his grip on his sword.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ906WAOjbrt

"Show me."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUoriwQqA9

Khaled vanished.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqmXUwaQAJ

Radius vanished as well.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpc9cLjDPRR

CLAAAAAAAAAANG!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE9yzM1knp

The earth shook.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzya0t84aA

Their blades collided at the center of the battlefield.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjpxZdIHXK

Then—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5xqSzIJgg

CLANG!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vLWMqgKGm

CLANG!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7CFzKKKnh

CLANG!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT5EjHVEzq

CLANG!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1aeU2NIMC

Black and blue sparks filled the sky.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInD5lszF6i

One strike.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBtONp1BvH

Another.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8RicSTzft

A third.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZEvi8VrmC

A tenth.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbJVd0lCSs

Then—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9V6RD85k2

For the first time...

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSf2ayvSPv

Radius took a step backward.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCxdcGaQJ3

Abdulrahman's eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1Z25LF5Mb

"He pushed him back!"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67l6JWG55F

Khaled immediately pressed the advantage.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww77st50Y5

A powerful horizontal slash.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs9Ifd64G8

Radius was forced to raise his sword to defend.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBo4t5azYX5

Then Khaled appeared behind him.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl30DMw0eO

Then above him.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBWocCjxQl

Then in front of him.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq4ZMqrzpv

A relentless barrage of attacks.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUg7F2l5y5t

Not giving him a single moment to breathe.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWY30DXYav

But—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUPreWsixm

Suddenly.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4BMjswtWy

Radius laughed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQExzaH5gq

A short, calm laugh.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjMoZGyFGZ

"Excellent."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhIDXjvCDY

He raised his head.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZ1cfhedZP

The icy seal on his forehead began to glow.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tq5xoVcPK

❄️ Frost Domain

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbo90iMW2wJ

He drove the tip of his sword into the ground.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5pEnK4aKu

BOOOOOOOOM!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZRycsIa38

Massive circles of ice spread in every direction.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUidJjVgOp

The entire battlefield transformed into a frozen wasteland.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fKUThuM24

Khaled paused for a moment.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeMXL6asNL

Then charged.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91RT3gKqH4

But—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6e0qHHD0H

Something felt wrong.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrTn61m2nz

His attack was slower.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTtuhoQtnj

Only slightly.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ17B43AdEI

But Radius dodged it effortlessly.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyedQzasam

Then counterattacked.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y3bcZFHY8

A slash tore through Khaled's armor.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2oVp8tvPE

Khaled's eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKqbTdGG7k

"Impossible..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv8vsvRHpF

He attacked again.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1cmxiXUxX

The same result.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtG2TkBoi8j

Every movement.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliQcni9Vx5

Every step.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbASor5Owl

Every turn.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zFq4mKL47

Slightly slower.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPZsUCVdAu

Another strike landed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyUQh1aM1c

Then another.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHiiI2rlPb

Then another.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hy0yHTwlc

Until blood began dripping from Khaled's mouth.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86KuVPrLIK

He retreated while breathing heavily.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz35Kyeh626

"What is happening?"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6inwua1BW

He looked at the ground.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSyOAqgGqD

The ice.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnG3b8828g

Then his feet.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhymF7EhMP

And suddenly—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwzpUxrvbT

He understood.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYeF5vMk27

His eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0R94j2LxI

"It's not me..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbEsvcxBnt

"The battlefield itself is slowing me down."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGsBAlYnYi

Radius smiled.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLsC3AxI8e

"You figured it out."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXGMHHEcat

But Khaled didn't smile.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zJRbQVn11

Instead, he closed his eyes.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLweg2eYGx

Focused.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiQqnp2new

The shadows beneath his feet began gathering.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrWthv85mg

Then—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08jmX5ZrQe

He disappeared into them.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa1NPyueSB

Moving through shadows instead of across the frozen ground.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10ChF4HKfx

Suddenly—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBnIQ4Xjhg

He appeared in front of Radius.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ3GEOkd1N

SLASH!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQh7QLTgmW

A fresh wound appeared on the knight's shoulder.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEfKtDbRD7

Radius looked at the injury.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0moH1BSAIl

Then smiled.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6T0vg0hLoT

A smile of genuine admiration.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2kNncFqHV

"So you've adapted."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjL2gCiyu9

He raised his sword once more.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8SDmOwyjn

"In that case..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68f6tH2jtJ

"I'll reveal the next card."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGaGmQUJCD

❄️ Frozen Echo

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTmlwcoA8H

"The Frozen Echo."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC3QQuW3zb

He swung his sword only once.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXJVfq2waK

Khaled dodged effortlessly.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ46Cwo4T8U

"Missed."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2jEPHvUBO

But—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEpYjWU3qS

SLASH!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ns6osya77

A deep wound suddenly appeared across his back.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv3mUb0rym

His eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNofbIofpgt

"What?!"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NaIuq6VPM

He looked around.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56RBJQMNOp

Nothing.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDC6UmeDR9N

No one.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmhibP3Nr0

Then a second strike came.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv19cS04TET

A third.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T9TH5N6gg

A fourth.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpVgQZUCU9

Every attack he avoided...

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGImK3SqP2

Returned seconds later from another direction.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmklfoHL57

As if it were hunting him.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ2NztFuvu

The wounds continued to increase.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmE0QvSfGBO

Blood flowed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsG7gLDGNA

The black armor began to crack.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1YIEezeEw

Yet Khaled never stopped thinking.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhzm2xKmBA

He observed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcy4FXAlETS

Waited.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTSOSCvNfg

Analyzed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXN97I9iML

Another attack flew past him.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcpkHUcvGK

He immediately struck it.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwrYaZ6FNK

The icy slash shattered.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrqxjlb9hl

His eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtb2nkAqtX

Then he smiled.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicioHTTMbZ

At last...

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiohT861nht

He understood.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aTpEFyXjz

Radius raised an eyebrow.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gbUG9n9Yk

"Oh?"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtU5yLZEyW

Khaled wiped the blood from his mouth.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEEfjVuDRH

Then looked at the frozen traces floating in the air.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbiBrSDgkw

"Those aren't new attacks."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOGlBgPJUy

"They're remnants of your previous ones."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPialFWVYL

"Each strike leaves behind a frozen imprint..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mWnm1l83E

"And that imprint attacks again moments later."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8erNJHyXB

Silence followed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkS1zFFkte

Then—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66wu9rTjuY

Radius smiled.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlcsnjjju6

A smile of genuine respect.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJuz9hwuac

"Interesting."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQl0ZtUiYY

"It took me years to master that technique."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkRuFzO6HQ

"And you deciphered it in minutes."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlw47cMPeeJ

In the distance—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX4QSu6a7O

Abdulrahman listened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoK0fJIsO8

Despite his injuries.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwACHS7CwAw

Despite his exhaustion.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNna5Olz9rb

He couldn't stop himself from smiling.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdSdQTYUKQ

"Heh..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhPRAvz8ec

"That's the Khaled I know."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTODeV2tNQ

But—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfmrBaOWY8

Radius raised his sword again.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2ikQdDfZP

The smile vanished from his face.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqCUGVTYMN

"Unfortunately..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PChAFRYpA

"Understanding the secret doesn't mean you'll survive."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzJMXmGe03

CLANG!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7plzxVcApc

Another strike.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9mUlnOJlw

But this time—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbET03E4ex

Khaled destroyed the frozen echo before it could reach him.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpubjDsXNE

Then the second.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjQdAjXTXn

The third.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh5KjuTitf

The fourth.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4FjfOxyAg

He was adapting.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBG72ljaTo

And getting closer.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtZPmRI8SL

SLASH!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXCT1kOqwK

A new wound appeared on Radius's arm.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhpcmsaSBX

Then another.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76ncmrPCJc

On his shoulder.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZh3fzQPf8A

Then a third.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrP9Fc5MMxo

Across his icy armor.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MEyb22SUz

For the first time since the battle began...

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcig3BiHRb1

The knight was being pushed back.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKT6IGRhyT

One step.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QjsjF000S

Then another.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEna95QBYL

Abdulrahman's eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXVt9qs59J

"He's forcing Radius back!"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACHTcFkyyH

But suddenly—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEnfxErCgR

Radius stopped.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuFy6WlEZ3

Looked down at the wounds covering his body.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUs7XPc7nbx

Then sighed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMjXqoMgvN

"I suppose..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjdrTQMo4C

"It's time to stop playing."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5yBOxA0B2

The icy seal shone brighter than ever before.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnQWGDbwU4

This time—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo1EKHLhmj

Even the air itself trembled.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe60NRHQvnr

❄️ Royal Ice Armor

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6sCqhf3WC

BOOOOOOOOM!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGl5Lahywj

Blue energy erupted from his body.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpb2OLnmUob

Layers of ice formed over his armor.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vvfsTcHr6

But this wasn't ordinary ice.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6auMo51BvC

It resembled legendary metal.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97g6ukcQSy

Shining.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtySBRlj7kG

Sharp.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNvynsKBGt

Heavy.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXNPHMShZa

Khaled attacked immediately.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKNd5wdXca

Striking with all his strength.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmvcRu6or4

CLAAAAAAANG!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcYfThmS1e

The ground shook violently.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBbEgbR7aR

But—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuOtkuLCMR

Radius didn't move.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBTmU0SVOm

Not even a single centimeter.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNKuRvJK77

Khaled's eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuY45l4Ltp

"What?!"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHC5IasXqgH

He attacked again.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku2ZguWpqv

Then again.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaU2b4HxVI

Then ten more times.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9SdcAxK7l

The result never changed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJtICGdCyD

No damage.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplk2v9D7TM

No wounds.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRCUi7MAUS

Nothing.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx2V65mcYx

Worse yet—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdhbNz7k96

His hand began freezing with every strike.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv0RJIcrPT

He quickly retreated.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZuGt6GPOX

Looking down at his fingers.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aPsSW3rih

A layer of ice had formed over them.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS3jAxQfJS

Radius smiled.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIZBpE5ovq

"Now do you understand?"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPGlCaewM7

"This armor doesn't merely defend."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qbfbjUg6X

"It returns a portion of the force back to the attacker."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32kSraEYgs

Abdulrahman's eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4P7nXUjEc

"It reflects damage?!"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubRWgLYCti

Radius answered calmly.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDf2fDnFFR

"Only part of it."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNX3y3ClnNM

"But that's enough."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbPgOi0w1U

Khaled looked at his hand.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKOgOGSro8

Then his sword.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGiBzKVrDP

Then the armor.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoNnjhsyAK

"I see."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJl5kSHHBi

"Then I won't attack it directly."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjjgf5XsCj

He vanished into the shadows.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5NlOTm7Rd

Appearing from the side.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvc13V7P1d

Then behind.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7Qsd1LEL6

Then above.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvlCB6vfRc

Dozens of attacks.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tnczc2uZ5

From every direction.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1HgZd4814

But—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3A2LEZ5KA

Radius blocked them all.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGQl3R3F5r

Like an immovable wall.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcskTLFk9J

Khaled's breathing grew heavier.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDApvzg790x

His body weaker.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyewqrWOfV

Meanwhile—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGf2oaSezi8

Radius still stood firm.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsVRGPXwTf

Like a mountain.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCfDlXrmBb

Then—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXBVHDwBQ8

Abdulrahman suddenly shouted.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsYXSZ27A2

"Khaled!"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpobMSWdQTp

Khaled looked toward him.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsb8WSE0nQ

"The right knee!"

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GzWUbts9Q

His eyes widened.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJY26dQbvc6

He remembered.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaGP41XLAg

Earlier...

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHT21H7kV6H

When Radius blocked the massive fireball...

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01IT6SEy6K

There had been a brief opening.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaPS2ymw4N

A weakness.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5zuIoZ8Dj

At the right knee.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dN08lM81b

Khaled vanished instantly.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKst4fkCHKS

Appearing beneath Radius.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCDMY8ayzi

SLASH!!

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVAYRtqA1u

A small wound appeared.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjBX25N8VL

Tiny.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQHiU0bePj

But—

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9rlLmjBv9

It was there.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0Yeko8arR

Silence fell.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYZhbDnpeI

Radius stared at the injury.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YVrFh4TIR

For the first time...

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pbWHjj5UR

His smile disappeared.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Qku7fV5Yy

"You found even that..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsI3SwsJMS

Abdulrahman grinned despite his injuries.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZ1xGkWKlR

"We're not as stupid as you think."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57vWfCVZhl

Radius laughed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLLtzZkxAE

A short laugh.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOLugDRnZE

Yet it carried something unexpected.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTFW8dtDqH

Admiration.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS9ODSAVb4

"I admit it..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipc0O8bEEf

"You're both far stronger than I anticipated."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWV9HHMDzCe

Then he raised his sword toward the sky.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ioAb5NYTi

Every smile disappeared.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlotYAdUITj

Every trace of amusement vanished.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWuwF8zBcE

His entire expression changed.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAPLAbrgtl

"Which is exactly why..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bBKVnZAte

"I'm going to use it."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqywyD0ErDr

The air froze.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JUJFDaCJ0

The blue flames around Abdulrahman froze.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDTaH3uSB9

Even the shadows surrounding Khaled began moving more slowly.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAM31Jf7f9

Both of them widened their eyes.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPj6thGB5Ry

Because they felt something terrifying.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqV3nJ0ox3

Something that made their instincts scream.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuqboB4IWC

Run.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAp4mx6ev1c

But Radius continued.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz9KAjquH2

"Now..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAduoydHPmG

"You will witness the strongest technique of the Ice Seal."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGqevwVL6s

❄️ Absolute Zero Slash

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSILyPnSGYW

"The Slash of Absolute Zero."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEXFKg5l7r

Energy began gathering around the blade.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesGjG9MHjW

More.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtd14q4rqV

And more.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3xIfqFOuZ

And more.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTZoPLmY7U

Until the ground started cracking from the cold.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJwLXsJGWq

The rocks froze solid.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NLgMnBkfA

The wind ceased completely.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2gwL14XOq

Even Abdulrahman found it difficult to breathe.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPBG1wVLcV

Radius looked at them.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkBWgR7SLI

There was no enjoyment left in his eyes.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwEQMyRsIC

No excitement.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2rC4KS4H7

Only seriousness.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQIagJtPYq

"You've proven yourselves worthy of seeing it."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdML20gQZz

He slowly lowered the blade.

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkQ4z1Tb9B

"And now..."

94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wER77LJ4P

"Let's see whether you're capable of surviving it."
