Hero of Darkness

nt of truly seasoned warriors.

To Kahn, it ’s like hitting a jackpot because he would get a grand opportunity to fight and learn from one of the best swordsmen in the empire.

”Start! ” shouted the vampire and Kahn ’s figure quickly flickered, the very next second, his sword appeared right next to the clan head ’s left shoulder.

Shing!

Before the tip could even move forward, a sword made of aura appeared out of nowhere and parried against the incoming attack.
And to Kahn ’s surprise, the vampire clan leader hadn ’t even moved a muscle or felt any impact.

Kahn was fully aware of his strength in that attack, but felt a sense of suppression on his movements.
As if that attack he made was not only seen through but a perfect counter was already prepared by the opponent.

Stinger! Water aura blade! Windcutter!

Kahn changed his footwork and started launching his melee and long-range sword attacks on the vampire.

Flick! Flick! Clink!

One by one, his attacks were being parried by the aura swords that always seemed to appear at the last second and divert the direction of the attack.

For the next five minutes, he kept attacking from various angles and even used his Sword King skill to attack the clan leader from fifty-one directions, only to get every single one of his aura swords getting successfully guarded against.

[What the hell..
Is he cheating? What am I missing?] he thought because no way was he holding back.

”My turn! ” spoke the vampire swordsman and the next moment, over a hundred small blades albeit shorter and thinner than Kahn ’s aura swords started attacking Kahn and all the swords from his side.

Kahn sidestepped and used side hopper from time to time and he barely missed getting stabbed.

From each of these swords..
He felt a suppressive aura that was completely different from his own aura swords that contained the pure destructive power behind them.
Compared to his own..
The aura blades from Ismatrazel were far more refined, compact and every single one of them had a suppressive force that was infused within them.

In just a minute, Kahn was completely put on a backfoot and was nothing but a coward running away from the onslaught as all he could do was dodge and parry.
All his aura swords were being broken in two by the vampire ’s swords.

The hundreds of soldiers on the other hand were surprised with Kahn ’s display and control over his body and aura swords.
Because from their experience..
Other ’s couldn ’t even hold their sword properly in front of their leader, let alone fight on equal ground with him.

[What the hell am I missing?] he asked himself and suddenly..
And enlightenment struck Kahn ’s mind.

His countenance turned serious and his Survival Instinct reached its peak the next second.
The suppressive force that was coming from the opponent ’s swords suddenly started feeling familiar.
Something that he had felt before.

What he did next was something even the fourth stage saint rank swordsman hadn ’t expected.

Rather than trying to counter the aura swords from the enemy..
Kahn stopped fighting, closed his eyes and quickly grabbed an aura sword that was aimed at his chest with his bare hand.

As if some form of realization had struck him..
Kahn spoke with a smile on his face.

”I see.
So that was the reason behind that suppressive force.
It ’s not your aura that these swords are made of.. ” stopped Kahn in his words and opened his eyes again with a newfound excitement as he spoke again..

”It ’s the World Energy! ”
