Elven Legacy (Part 2)

Chapter 368: Difficult Fight

With the long gash appearing diagonally across Lourdes's chest, cutting her clothes as well, which revealed part of her breast, I tried to keep my eyes focused on her face, but it was hard to resist the allure of such a view from arguably the most beautiful woman in existence. Glancing at Lourdes's chest, I sucked in a breath of cold air while gazing at her exposed chest; it may not have been her true body, but even so, it was still a majestic sight.

'I wonder what her true breasts look like.' Thought Elif as he stared at Lourdes's chest while she cleaned the blood off her wound, only for her to look up at him with a faint smirk.

"Eyes are up here, descendant." Said Lourdes softly with a faint smirk as she glanced at Elif, who awkwardly coughed while his gaze shifted to her face.

"I could say the same for you; you think I haven't noticed your lustful eyes constantly wandering across my body?" Remarked Elif lightly as he slashed downwards, launching a long, purple sword wave in Lourdes's general direction, though she easily deflected before spinning and backslashing at him.

Eying the incoming bluish sword wave, I lowered Hokori and outstretched my hand, using just the power of my physique to block her attack, which would've been foolish for nearly every Elf in existence, but other than a small gash on my palm, I was left mostly unharmed.

'It has speed but no strength; it's merely meant to scare you and force you to react.' Mused Elif lightly as he glanced at his bloody palm before leaping into the air, only for a large golden palm to manifest above him.

"To be fair, descendant, when you're wearing such a revealing outfit, anyone is bound to gaze at what they can see. As for lustful eyes... I'll not comment on that." Remarked Lourdes lightly as her voice echoed across the room, though Elif paid her words little heed.

Seeing that all too familiar golden palm, I slashed Hokori upwards, cutting the palm in two, only for a series of black X-shaped sword waves to head right for me from all directions, yet they were noticeably weaker than they should, almost to the point where they wouldn't even be able to harm my physique. However, unlike before, these attacks felt slightly suspicious, so I didn't dare let them touch my heavenly physique and instead used Fairy Sword Dance.

The movement of my blade increased in speed the longer I used the technique; of course, with my proficiency, there was an upper limit to it, though I still moved plenty fast enough to destroy the barrage of X-shaped sword waves. While easily holding my ground amidst the relentless attacks, I gazed at my numerous attackers, spotting several Lourdes's; each one had the same cultivation base of a middle Divine King, yet even though that was the case, the strength of these attacks was felt more she should be an early Divine King.

However, seemingly learning these relentless attacks weren't working, they suddenly stopped before the five Lourdes lunged at me; furrowing my brows at their speedy arrival, I didn't attack them and waited until they got close, and only then did I make a move. Tightening my grip around the hilt of my sword, with the immense speed granted by Fairy Sword Dance, I slashed in all directions, launching hundreds of heavenly scars at my attackers; with them being all too close, they were forced to block a river of heavenly scars, and they could only hold on for a few moments before they were eventually consumed by the nearly infinite amount of heavenly scars.

Every time a Lourdes was defeated, I would stop attacking in that direction, allowing me to further focus on the other remaining ones, and that just turned into a downward spiral as they were easily taken care of; however, once only one Lourdes remained, I faintly smirked as I gazed at her as she attempted to remain firm within the sea of my attacks, her sword moving gracefully with the utmost precision as she redirected several of my sword waves, yet, even after she stopped suppressing her strength, she was eventually overwhelmed.
