Another Side Of The Universe

Chapter 95: Challenge

“Is there no way of winning this?” a royal knight mumbled in frustration. 

“Lift your head. We just need to hold on until reinforcement here,” said Tirion.

“But even with reinforcement, how are we supposed to beat an immortal army?” 

“You’re right,” said Stravenkov. He looked at the ring on his finger. “I’m sorry. If only I can do more….”

Suddenly, a loud sound took their attention. 

Axion is still fighting the steel army. Throwing them aside to make way towards Versatel. 

“How the hell is she still fighting?” a royal knight mumbled. 

They watch her swinging her sword with no sign of slowing down. She keeps her pace and defeats the steel knights one by one. 

“Y-your highness. Don’t worry. Let’s keep pushing forward,” said a royal knight. 

“Yes. It’s too soon to give up.”

Stravenkov looked at them and nodded. Determinations filled him. They try to keep up with Axion and continue to push forward. 

Meanwhile, Kaizo is having a hard time, parrying the elite soldier. He starts to lose his breath. But Kaizo pushed himself to stay standing. 

“You’re not so bad. I guess this explains why you’re cheeky,” said the elite soldier. “But don’t get it over your head. I am different from the opponent that you kids have fought before.”

“Nonsense. You don’t even know what kind of opponent I’ve fought before,” said Kaizo. He charged ahead and gave a full swing with his sword from above. But the elite soldier sees it coming and parries him with ease. He pushes Kaizo back. 

“Heh. Is this the best you can do? Compared to you, the girl over there does a better job,” said the elite soldier. 

Kaizo runs towards the elite soldier again. He tried multiple attacks. But all of them got parried. 

“You’re getting slow. Are you tired?” said the elite soldier. 

Kaizo didn’t answer. He keeps on attacking nonstop. 

“Attacking me randomly like this won’t get you anywhere.”

The elite soldier swings his sword. Pushing Kaizo back. 

“Huh. Disappointing,” said the elite soldier. 

Kaizo looked at Axion. She’s still pushing through the army of steel. 

“That’s right. This is not the time to hold back,” Kaizo mumbled. He stands up and turns on his amber mask. 

“Changing your appearance won’t get you anywhere,” the elite soldier mocked. 

“You talk too much,” said Kaizo. He runs towards the soldier and gives a good swing of his sword. 

“Ughh….” the elite soldier grunt. “His attack got stronger,” he thought to himself. 

Kaizo’s attack is getting harder to parry. The elite soldier jumps back. Trying to put up a distance to think. But Kaizo chased him and kept him close. 

Kaizo keeps on attacking. Leaving no opening for the soldier to counterattack. 

Soon, the elite soldier reached his limit and he got thrown across the room. He hit a few steel armies before he landed harshly on the floor with a loud thud. 

Kaizo stands straight, trying to control his breath. He looks at the elite soldier, expecting him to stand up again. But the elite soldier didn’t move.
