“I’ll use Berserk, Artpe!”
[You don’t have the luxury to chat right now!]
The bastard immediately came at them. The only thing that remained behind the party was the wall blocking the way back up. Consequently, Maetel didn’t hesitate in activating her Berserk skill. She ran forward to face the enemy.
“Tsk. I don’t like the situation dictating our actions…...”
Artpe grumbled as he immediately activated the Mana Link. He connected himself to Maetel. Then he let the shield rotate as a means to protect himself. He was cautious as he descended the stairs. His eyes took in the sight of Maetel and the Death Knight clashing against each other.
[As expected, you are overwhelming more powerful when you use your sword compared to the actual strength you possess. However, you won’t be able to become a hero using a sword steeped in rage!]
“I’m the one swinging this sword, so I don’t care what helps me! I don’t care if it is anger, sadness or happiness. I’ll win against you to protect Artpe! You will never lay a hand on Artpe!”
[If I’m anything like the enemies you faced up until now, you would have been able to accomplish that. However, the experience and power of 500 Death knights were combined to complete me. How dare you speak such arrogant and impudent words towards me!]
The powerful sound of Maetel and the Death Knight exchanging blows with their swords could be heard. Of course, the one taking damage and retreating was Maetel. If she didn’t have the gears protecting her wrists, she would have been severely hurt.
“Koohk….!”
“Tsk. When there were 500 separate monsters, it was a fight with a decent odds. You were cheap in activating the power of Record Link using suicide…..”
[You spout some silly words.]
Maetel already had a cheat-like physical ability compared to her actual level. On top of that, she was able also able to activate the Berserk skill. She could pretty much toy with the level 150 Death Knights at her leisure. However, the enemy she was facing right now was a monster created by combining 500 Death Knights using the Record Link.
Artpe had immediately used his Read All Creation ability to check the monster. The overall difference in ability was devastating. The fact that Maetel was able to instantly regain her stance after weathering through the impact was almost miraculous. She was even charging towards the monster.
[The difference in our power is clear. Oh hero. Will you still get in my way to protect that contemptible boy? Will you do so when the only thing waiting for you is despair and death? Will you sacrifice yourself until the end for a complete stranger?]
“Hoohp.”
Maetel didn't reply to its words. She just charged the monster.
The magical energy within the bastard sword had been well-developed by her. Her powerful swings were knocking back the long sword.
[What the hell!?]
Surprisingly, she didn’t get pushed back this time! When one took in the difference in battle capability, this was a surprising development. Maetel’s spirit rose higher as she pushed back against the monster. She yelled out in a fierce manner.
“What happened to the spirit that you displayed before? Wasn’t it supposed to be the power of 500 of your kind? It seems you don’t have much to show for it right now!”
[Kooh, ha-ah! This was merely a coincidence!]
The armored knight dismissed it as a coincidence, but Artpe immediately knew what had happened through his Read All Creation ability.
