The Art of Sword

Chapter 22: Round One Sunz VS Yama Part 2

Yama: I did not expect that I have to go all out on a newbie like you. But maybe I should call you a genius, due to the difference in our time training to be a swordsman.

Sunz ready his sword, "To be honest I don't have the strength like all of you". "So I need to make some adjustments" and rush at Yama.

Yama "Look like your gears are turning" then rushes at Sunz.

As both of them get closer to colliding Sunz keeps having these sharp headaches and each one is stronger than before. And as they collide Sunz graze through the bat like when he was practicing with the AI. But this time the sword isn't infused with water elements so it didn't hold Yama down.

Yama now with a faster body take a step back and strike Sunz in the gut. Flinging him to the wall of the arena. But that strike also gives Yama a head rush.

Yama's vision get a bit blurry, and he said to himself "I've never had to use this form this quickly", " and I could have ended this round with that strike."

Sunz after getting fling to the wall now is using it to keep his balance and start thinking. (Ok! His speed and strength switch stats... Ohhh!!! So that is why I keep having headaches. If his skill is different when strength and speed switch. Not to mention that physics formula.)

Sunz's whole body starts to tingle (That hit did more than I thought... It's time to let the adrenalin fuel this body.) Sunz infuses his sword with water and electricity, in a stance to swing his sword, as he swings it he dashes with electricity.

Which to his surprise it was a success and launch a wave of water at high speed at Yama.

Yama " So you still have more trick up your sleeve!" swing his bat in Sunz's direction and creates a shock wave that spits the wave into two, flying past him and dropping to the floor.

Sunz seeing that his idea work repeats it again, sending many waves of water at Yama. Letting the waves move a few seconds before him, Sunz use the wall to boost him rushing at Yama with his water waves.

Yama seeing that Sunz is trying to finish this round right here right now. He counters Sunz's attack by walking up to the water waves and destroying them with normal swing. Until there are no waves left he rushes at Sunz.

Then for some reason, he sees that Sunz's eyes are closed which makes him uneasy. So when he sees that Sunz is about to swing he stops a second before and swings his bat up in the air, which creates a storm-force wind in Sunz's path and he disappears with his speed.

Sunz right before getting hit by the storm-force wind stops and uses his build-up momentum against the storm. He then uses all that force to swing his water infuse sword in the air to create a half-circle water ring.

After that Yama appear to Sunz's right, swing his bat, and said "You thought I was going to strike from behind, didn't ya!". Sunz open his eyes and said, "That was a set up you fool."

Sunz infuses his sword with electric elements and swings it at Yama's bat. After being infused with electricity the water above Sunz's head attracted to the sword blade assisting it successfully slicing into the bat's body. And the electricity flow from the sword to the bat shocked Yama's entire body and knocked him out.

A few seconds pass. Yama is knocked out, Sunz is exhausted trying to keep balance, and thinks "Did I win?"

Sogae appears and announces "The winner of this round is... SUNZ". After that announcement, a medic team appears to carry Yama and Sunz to the arena infirmary.

Sogae "Everyone we will take a 10 minutes break before the next round."

Later in the infirmary after the medic team had done all the checks up and patching up on Sunz and Yama. They leave them alone.
