Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1209 - 882: Sharper! Swifter!

"Clang!"

In the middle of the night, in the training ground, with a sound of steel clashing vibrating the air, the sword dance between Reiger and Charity began.

Without using Magic Power, nor any secret treasures aside from the sword, the young man and woman both executed their slashes, causing the cold arc light to flash suddenly through the space of the training ground.

This was a clash of the strongest against the strongest.

One was the strongest in the Kingdom of Ginas, the other in the Tistis Kingdom, two equally young, equally powerful, equally legendary swordsmen met, immediately showcasing strength that even ordinary Sword Saints would find hard to match.

"Swish!"

On one side, the blade light cascaded like a waterfall, like the Milky Way hanging across the sky.

"Slash!"

On the other side, the sword light rained, like a meteor cutting through the sky.

The young man and woman erupted with astonishing power and terrifying speed, slashing dozens, hundreds of times within seconds.

"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"...

With the continuous flickering of blade light and sword light, countless silhouettes of blades and swords clashed at a speed beyond the capability of the naked eye to catch, filling the air with endless sounds of collision.

Every time the blade and sword collided, sparks erupted like crimson water drops.

Every time the blade light and sword light intersected, ripples and waves of air would form in the atmosphere.

In this pure white blade fight, the two in the training ground brought their skills to the extreme, transforming the place into a storm of blades and swords as they clashed and moved, creating a dusty whirlwind akin to a sandstorm, with the ground left with numerous blade and sword marks, soon turning into a scene of devastation.

"Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang...!"

Gradually, the sounds of collision became faster and more urgent, and the flickering blades and swords in the training ground grew denser, forming a storm of steel.

Reiger and Charity fully unleashed their sword techniques, fiercely engaging with the formidable opponent before them without holding back.

Their forms moved with the speed of a gust of wind in the field, leaving behind only afterimages; their true shapes were completely obscured by the silhouettes of blades and swords and the dusty whirlwind, making it impossible for even a Sword Saint-level master to discern their posture at this moment.

This was a duel of the highest caliber, known to almost no one, rarely seen even in the entire continent of Akasha, perhaps appearing once in ten years.

"Boom!"

Reiger’s step faltered slightly, exploding with a speed that could cause a sonic boom, breaking through the air in a turbulent dust storm as his black blade turned into a dazzling blade light, seeming to break the constraints of space, slashing towards Charity in the blink of an eye.

"......!" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Charity’s ice-blue eyes focused, her vision overwhelmed by the astonishing blade light, her skin prickling from the sharp aura, making alarms shriek in her mind.

Facing such an awe-inspiring slash, Charity found her senses completely unable to keep up, incapable of tracking the opponent’s trajectory.

Therefore, Charity resolutely closed her eyes, abandoning her five senses, discarding the blaring alarms and sense of crisis in her heart, entrusting all her attention to her innate sixth sense—intuition.

"Whoosh!"

Relying on inhuman intuition, Charity’s body moved faster than her own neural reflexes, dodging the awe-inspiring slash by a hair’s breadth.

"Slash slash slash...!"

Immediately, Charity unleashed several sword lights, sending the cold sword lights lunging towards Reiger’s throat, chest, and abdomen, forming a vertical line-up.

"Clang!" "Clang!"

A transparent gleam flashed in Reiger’s eyes, the world of clarity opened up, his hand wielding the blade spun in circles, retracting the blade in swift slashes, deflecting the sword lights aimed at his throat and chest.

As for the sword light stabbing towards his abdomen, Reiger simply ignored it, his figure suddenly sidestepping, not just evading it but advancing towards Charity instead.

Charity, eyes still shut, seemed to sense Reiger’s rapid approach and, without dodging or evading, directly faced him head-on.

The blade and sword light erupted once again, with collision sounds bursting out for who knows how many times, as the black blade and white sword clashed, exploding nearly a hundred times within seconds, causing the sparks from the iron collision to burst like firecrackers.

The dust swirled between the two, creating a sensation of turbulent air and clouds, making it hard to believe this was a pure sword duel without any use of Magic Power or secret treasures.

During this intense sword fight, both the young man and woman inevitably had the same thought in their hearts.

"So strong..."

Both were astonished and surprised.

Reiger hadn’t anticipated Charity would keep up with him now, fighting to a standstill.

It was worth noting that, unlike their last encounter in the magma zone, he had reached Lv.8, with a normal combat power that rivaled Lv.9, a significant increase since last time, logically giving him the advantage to overpower Charity, who lost to him previously.

Charity was indeed strong, and stronger than during their last encounter, but only about as strong as Lv.8, still a whole level behind his Lv.9 equivalent.

This led Reiger to believe that this sword duel would conclude with his overwhelming victory.

Who would have thought that this woman’s intuition was even more of a bug than he imagined; even with inferiority in body capability, reflexes, combat techniques, comprehensive qualities, and so on, she managed to see through his sword technique just by relying on that extraordinary intuition, matching his speed, and fighting him to a tie head-on.

It was simply unbelievable.

Of course, while Reiger was surprised, Charity was equally astonished.

She could feel Reiger had become much stronger than last time, yet didn’t expect him to be this strong.

Last time they fought, although the result was his defeat, he was still able to threaten Reiger back then, and their power difference wasn’t too significant.

But this time, the opponent’s strength had grown to far surpass his own. If it weren’t for his inhuman instinct that suited the void affinity, he would have already been defeated, unable to forcefully engage the opponent at all.

This is truly incredible.

In a flash, the two found themselves deep in thought, then rekindled their fighting spirit due to the other’s unexpected performance.

"Boom!"

In that instant, both of them exploded in speed, creating sonic booms, charging towards each other once more.

"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"...

Unconsciously, they abandoned all sorts of thoughts, fully immersing themselves in this swordfight, with flashes of blades and intense iron-clashing sounds continuously appearing.

At this moment, in the eyes of the young man and young woman, there was only this opponent in front of them, abandoning all stances, relations, identities, and past grievances.

Burning their fighting spirit wholeheartedly!

Exercising their sword skills wholeheartedly!

Upon realizing their weapons couldn’t temporarily harm the other, the only thought remaining in their minds was to make themselves stronger!

Thus, the torrent of blade light grew more powerful.

Thus, the rain-like sword light sped up even further.

Stronger!

Faster!

Sharper!

More forceful!

Accelerate, accelerate, continuously accelerate!

Carrying such thoughts and motivations, these two equally talented young swordsmen, astonishingly, were evolving and transforming their sword skills bit by bit amidst this intense duel.

Perhaps, neither Reiger nor Charity expected that when they faced each other again, it would turn out like this?

To overpower the opponent in this swordfight...

To triumph over strength with weakness in this duel...

The young man and young woman held onto the purest of intentions, with one having an increasingly bright glint in their transparent eyes, and the other’s once-closed eyes opening at some unknown point, and when their gazes met, their blazing fighting spirit and resolve erupted together.

"Bang!"

Unnoticed, one corner of the training grounds was cut down by countless blade and sword lights, suddenly collapsing.

"Rumble..."

The accelerating white-knuckle battle initiated a steel tempest sweeping over the field, sending a whirlwind of dust spiraling into the sky, surging in all directions, impacting the emerging magic barrier, causing it to tremble.

No one would believe that this phenomenon was entirely caused by the clash of swords without using any extraordinary power.

But even this, Reiger and Charity no longer cared, fully engrossed in the battle, continuing to interweave their blades in collision after collision, like a speeding car with its pedal to the metal, racing with abandon.

"Clang!"

Until a certain moment, Reiger unleashed a perfect strike with complete harmony of mind, technique, and body, an aurora-like slash hitting Charity’s hastily parried Inheritance Sword, finally dismantling her stance.

"Slash!" "Slash!" "Slash!"...

In the ever-accelerating swordfight, the dismantled Charity was almost instantly struck by countless blade lights, causing blood mist to erupt from her entire body.

In the nick of time, Charity still relied on her almost Bug-like intuition to adjust her posture, dodging the slashes aimed at her vital points, but she couldn’t escape the others, leading to her entire body’s skin being slashed, her knight attire being cut to tatters.

"It’s over!"

Reiger’s eyes flashed suddenly, with no thoughts of stopping, he instantly closed in, brandishing his blade for a fierce chop.

This was a deadly strike released based on respect for the opponent in front of him.

To this point, whether Reiger or Charity, it seemed they had understood each other’s heart and soul through the repeated clash of swords, suddenly becoming deeply familiar with one another.

And because of this, both Reiger and Charity clearly knew that in such a satisfying swordfight, neither wished for the other to withdraw at the last crucial moment.

This swordfight, it should be fought wholeheartedly until one falls, that would be the ideal outcome.

However...

"Stop!"

Suddenly interrupting the battlefield between the two, a furious shout was heard.

Closely following, a figure appeared.

A menacing figure abruptly appeared behind Reiger.
