During all the past time while staying here he never tried to activate his technique… not even once.
Despite appearing here with his technique being activated, nothing happened. He glanced all around while feeling puzzled for a fraction of a second.
Then that distant and seemingly calm monster vanished!
"Damn!"
He couldn't help but feel a sudden threat approaching fast towards him. He didn't see anything except for a gale of wind.
Yet that didn't prevent him from waving his sword fast towards the direction he felt the threat was coming from.
"Clang!"
And at that moment a giant scythe appeared out of thin air to be blocked by his sword.
And that meant that monster was already here.
"Sizzle!"
The brief moment where the monster was forced to pause by his sword was followed by a noisy sound of sizzling.
The black mist surrounding that monster was getting restless while the white light around Arthur showed a new change.
It seemed to all getting sucked by that monster, or getting attracted towards it like it was a magnet.
Yet this didn't last more than one second before that monster suddenly vanished. Arthur felt the same dreadful feeling coming from a different direction.
"Clang!"
He wasn't late in moving in his sword to block that giant hammer from smashing his head. Despite blocking it he couldn't help but shoot like an arrow towards the ground before slamming hard into it.
"Sizzle!"
Another noisy sizzling happened and this time Arthur only saw a thick cloud of white mist coming out from that monster like he was an ice being showered with boiling water.
Then that monster vanished again.
Even before Arthur could slam into the ground that monster appeared on top of him.
"Damn you!" and like before Arthur waved his sword and blocked the giant sword that slammed heavily over his head.
And this made his fall even fiercer. The hit caused his body to feel numb, however he didn't even give himself a moment of rest.
He knew he would be finished if he lowered his guard or closed his eyes for even a fraction of a second.
"Clang!"
This time it was a spear that barely blocked its sharp tip and made it deviate and miss him.
"Not that easy!!" Arthur screamed in utmost rage while putting his leg on the tip of the spear while waving his sword towards the body of the monster.
"Sizzle!"
"Sizzle!"
"Sizzle!"
The monster tried to pull the spear with all its might however Arthur's sudden intervention made it impossible for it to vanish like it usually did.
Each passing second caused significant damage to the monster. Arthur waved his sword fast, making it even if the monster managed to pull its spear it wouldn't be able to dodge his sword.
"Die!" Arthur's sword flashed fast across the monster's body. However it hit only thin air.
That monster abandoned its spear and retreated fast to the rear.
However this time the monster didn't vanish like usual.
"C'mon!" Arthur was getting already intoxicated by this formidable foe. He didn't hesitate to run towards the monster while his aim was to hit it.
He wanted to see what his sword could do to that monster.
However the moment he moved, that monster suddenly moved fast. It didn't aim to hit him but it aimed towards the spot Arthur was just standing at.
"You want your spear?" Arthur couldn't help but laugh. He was already about to use his wings to boost his speed, but when he saw this he didn't do that.
In return he turned around, threw himself and held the rear shaft of the spear while that monster picked the middle part.
"Clang!"
Arthur waved his sword to hit the monster's back but that monster moved one of its arms to block the sword. Despite that the monster was sent flying in the air, pulling Arthur alongside it while the two grabbed on the spear like it was the only thing to keep their lives intact.
"Clang!"
"Sizzle!"
"Clang!"
"Sizzle!"
"Clang!"
"Sizzle!"
In the meantime, each passing second created an explosive sizzling sound. That monster was now getting clouded with thick layers of white mist that kept rising up off it like it was eating it away from the inside.
"Clang!"
Arthur didn't even care about himself being dragged by that monster all around. He kept waving his sword even if he couldn't see anything out of this thick mist.
He knew that this monster was now being tormented by his white light. Every passing second here meant that monster was getting a step closer to its death.
All he had to do was to persist, keep the monster trapped here and his white light would do everything.
He also wanted to test his sword, wanted to hit the monster and see what would happen.
And his wish came to fruit fast, faster than he even expected.
"Woosh!"
"Slash!"
Just as he was waving his sword all around, he felt his sword hit something. It was like flesh, yet the next moment he heard a fast moving thing coming towards him.
"Boom!"
A sudden kick came out from that monster. Arthur never expected that. He thought the monster would keep himself at defense, trying its best not to get hit by his sword.
And yet at this moment the monster ruthlessly decided to have a mutual exchange. It dropped off its guard and let Arthur's sword hit its body in return to kick Arthur with all its might.
Arthur felt like a bulldozer hit his abdomen. The next moment he felt the air around howling in noisy fashion while his body flew backward like a broken kite in the wind.
He didn't even realize what was going on except when he saw that the monster was getting smaller while he kept flying fast away.
And that monster just showed up in his real body, as if all the mist around vanished at these stressful moments.
"That's… I!!!"
Arthur couldn't help but feel shock, extreme shock when he saw the face and real body of that monster. It didn't have the head of a bull, but it was like it was an outer costume.
Inside, in the middle of that gigantic body a smaller one appeared. It was an exact copy of the human form of Arthur.
And just his sword managed to cut through that other version of him through the chest.
Arthur kept his eyes wide open out of shock even after he crashed heavily at the ground. He kept himself there while watching the sizzling noise appearing once again while that monster started to roar in deep pain.
It seemed his slash from before came to cause more damage than what that monster anticipated.
That mutual exchange seemed to cause more than what the monster thought to have.
"It's… me!!!" Arthur stood up while his body kept trembling out of shock. He kept glaring at that roaring monster at the distance while its body kept shrouded in white mist before it suddenly vanished.
And the next moment Arthur felt a great threat coming fast towards him from one direction.
"Clang!"
