Villain's Valor: A Noble Fantasy Resurrection-Chapter 21 - : Battle between Siblings(2)
Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Battle between Siblings(2)
The moonlight bathed the entire world; a tranquil night after all, no sound echoed through the area, as if everyone was anticipating what was about to happen. In a training field stood two individuals who were exactly alike, if not for the differences in height or the fact that one was a woman and the other a man. Two people, two siblings who would engage in a duel that would change their lives forever.
I looked at my sister in front of me, with her sword in her right hand and her hair cascading down her back. For some reason, she decided not to tie her hair, but it's fine by me; she looks much better that way. Her training outfit remained the same as before. On the other hand, I wore an outfit identical to hers, but designed for a man, of course. I also held my sword in my right hand; we decided to use metal swords.
"Sister, I hope our duel is perfect, I hope a lot for this moment," I told her.
"Brother, I hope you don't back down now," she replied.
"Eh, of course not. I'm very excited right now," I responded.
She simply nodded.
"Let's begin, then," she said, adjusting her stance, holding her sword in front of her with her right foot slightly forward, placing her left hand behind her.
My stance was different, lowering my right hand with the sword and spreading my legs a bit, with my left hand to the left side. I prepared for what was about to happen.
Looking into each other's eyes, neither of us moved. My senses heightened, and I felt my skin prickle. My sister disappeared suddenly. Quickly, I turned my body backward and raised my sword.
Clang!
A clear sound echoed, and a small shockwave made me step back. Looking forward, my sister disappeared again.
Clang!
Attacking from the right, I once again moved my sword to avoid hers, but she disappeared immediately.
"Curse it, she's too fast," I whispered to myself. My sister's footwork is at level 4, "Instant Disappearance," allowing her to vanish from her opponent's line of sight and move to a blind spot. And that's without activating our aura yet. I have to finish this quickly; if I continue like this, I'll end up getting tired.
I quickly felt my magic flow through my body, and a black aura surrounded my body and sword. Looking at my sister's position, she smirked mockingly and activated her aura too; quickly, blue flames surrounded her from head to toe.
This time, I decided to attack, moving my foot forward, activating my footwork to swiftly launch a frontal attack.
Clang!
She held back my attack somewhat easily, but I didn't give up. My feet moved swiftly to the right, bending my body with my hands for a horizontal cut, but once again, my sister disappeared. Adjusting my stance, staying alert, I quickly turned my head to the right and felt a small cut on my cheek.
Turning my body backward with a feint, I managed to connect a blow with her sword, lifting it upwards, grabbing my sword with both hands, I performed a downward attack applying even more force. Seizing this opportunity, I executed a quick diagonal movement to destabilize her posture.
My sister, seeing my intentions, performed her footwork, distancing herself to the other end.
"Impressive, you're lasting longer than I expected," she commented.
"You flatter me, sister," I replied.
Clang!
She disappeared once again, attacking me head-on. I received her blow head-on, feeling as if the bones in my hands were about to break due to the brute force exerted by my sister. I couldn't believe her slender arms could generate so much strength.
She disappeared again, and I felt a blow to my already broken ribs that sent me flying. My sister, without giving me a second to rest, was by my side again with a downward attack intending to cut me in two. Quickly, I placed my hand on the pavement and exerted all my weight on it to turn and save my life.
"She can move from one place to another in a second!" I cursed to myself, quickly looking at my sister who was in front of me.
Rolling to the left, I jumped up and prepared again. I saw my sister moving with a quick step toward me and disappeared again. Reacting super fast, I placed my sword on my right side.
Clang!
I felt another cut on my already broken ribs.
"Aaargh," I gritted my teeth and counterattacked with the same precision as my sister, connecting the blow, and she took a few steps back. With my left hand on my ribs, I stared intensely at my sister.
"I think it's time to end the games," she said.
Feeling the surroundings becoming colder than usual, I returned my gaze to my sister. With blue hair and eyes of the same color, and on her head a pair of black horns erect upwards, she returned my gaze. She had just activated her bloodline.
"Curse it, things just got serious."
