Legend of the Immortal

Well Fought

Gracie maintained a blank look,"You'll have to try harder than that."

The king grinned back and said,"How about this!-"

The aura from his body quadrupled, amounting to at least half his level.

Gracie easily matched it, causing shock to rise in the king's eyes.

He had never seen nor heard of such an outstanding individual.

It seemed, he might be able to have a fight today...

His aura exploded again, causing cries to form as the crowd was pushed back.

Those at the front had pale faces, understanding that just a slight touch could eradicate them easily.

Yet, this girl was standing with no care, unmoving, unwavering.

Just what power was this?

Gracie yawned,"Are we done yet?"

The king shook his head,"Unfortunately...It's over!"

His full power burst from under his skin, targeting Gracie.

Gracie raised her hand and swiped at the invisible force, bending it and sending it slamming into the the king, pushing him back a few steps.

The king held his chest as blood started to flow from the corner of his mouth.

Bellot stared in surprise that Gracie could even match up to the king, let alone injure him.

"I must admit...You are strong...But let's compete in power now!"

The king's arms flowed before two gigantic blue gauntlets covered them, looking like the arms of a monstrous ape out for blood.

Gracie held [Valkyrie] out and [Dancing Obsidian] appeared in a red glow.

"Oh? A high grade divine artefact! Looks like this'll be interesting!" The king shouted as he charged towards Gracie.

"[Celestial Butterfly]." Gracie chanted.

The place where Gracie once stood was a small crater formed by the king's fist.

Gracie disappeared and appeared behind the king who had expected such play and punched out behind him.

Gracie dodged in time and with her right leg, pushed herself away to avoid the blow and counter with a swift strike.

Slashing upwards, Gracie found her sword being blocked by the a metallic fist.

She immediately moved away as the air near there screamed when the fist that was directed at her missed.

"Looks like I'll have to get a little serious..." Gracie muttered.

"[Overture High]!" Gracie whispered as her body whistled through the air.

She appeared right before the king who was already expecting her, his fist was stretched and read to deliver forceful blows.

"Haaah!" The king growled as he punched out mercilessly at Gracie who blocked each blow with [Dancing Obsidian].

It wasn't obvious at first, but after a while, it began to grow quite apparent.

The king was slowly being pushed back despite looking like he was countering Gracie's endless explosive barrage of strikes.

No, he was perfectly countering them, however, Gracie's Attack was just too forceful, the power behind it was more than the king could handle while maintaining his ground, as such, he was being slowly pushed back.
