Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

Chapter 107 107 A painting by swordsmen

[OP: ]

-Clung!

The battle started as soon as they both disappeared from the scene without leaving behind any traces of their previous presence.

-Clung! Clank!

-Booooom!

Just like before, there were sounds of clashing metals echoing all throughout the area they were in but, unlike before, instead of sparks produced by two clashing blades, there were clashes of two unique energies that produced not only a bright release of their Aura but also a shockwave that shook the entirety of area they were in.

-Clunk-boooooom!

It was strange how there was no personnel visible in this empty cave area filled with energy blasts that created craters abruptly all throughout the cave, even destroying the ground and some large boulders that wouldn't even have budged otherwise.

-Boooooooooom!

[Emergency!]

[Emergency!]

[Large destruction due to normal elements of the test has been detected!]

[An official duel of high intensity is taking place in area <D>!]

[Covering the area in the protective barrier to prevent destruction of the examination location.]

[Registering the achievements of the participants in the data logs.]

In mere moments after they disappeared, there was destruction all around this area, and it was so severe that the preservation system had to be activated to preserve this part of the examination area.

They were fighting in a normal-looking location but then the whole place around them was covered with a unique translucent blue barrier, which thankfully didn't hinder their deadly dance of colorful explosions…

Lucy's red Aura was attractive as well as destructive while Ras's white Aura was destructive but at the same time milder and swifter than his opponent's.

It was as if a fire was clashing with burning winds… or at least something similar to that. But still, the two of them were sword masters who sadly could not perform to the highest degree of their abilities.

They were using their attractive Aura, the power of mass destruction that not only is difficult to obtain but is also difficult to master to the extent the two of them had at that young-looking age.

They were using movements that not even trained martial artists could perform in midair like they were doing with that kind of speed.

They were also integrating their passive skills into the unique techniques they were performing to sincerely obliterate their opponent, however, they had not yet started using the actual sword techniques that any swordsman would show first thing during their battles.

They had evaluated their opponents perfectly but since both of them had revealed their Aura, it was necessary to first evaluate the nature, level, power, destructiveness, and uniqueness of the opponent's Aura.

Aura was unique to every single person who possessed it after all, that was the reason it was a unique skill and not just a skill.

It was born from the deepest subconscious of oneself, representing the whole being of the one who possessed it.

Therefore, it was very much possible to know most of the things about the possessor of Aura just by analyzing it closely, and… both of them had finished the assessment of their opponent so, in the midst of slashing his opponent's heart area, Lucy twisted his body and spun to the other direction, creating a satisfactory distance between the two of them.

And, it had happened faster than Ras expected so he was surprised by Lucy's sudden actions, but he knew exactly what he wanted to do, so without waiting, he initiated the technique exchange for him by crouching down on the ceiling of the cave, taking a new form to spring forth towards his opponent.

'Crouching tiger ascension!'

As if a tiger leaping forward at its prey, he was thrown forward at Lucy with a thin layer of Qi covering his body and giving him a unique outline that made his body perfectly aerodynamic.

'Six season desolation: First chapter of Spring- Rejuvenation!'

But Lucy was ready for him with his own sword dance that was still in the development phase, a sword dance he had decided to create as his first sword dance, a [Rank-4] skill that he had scheduled to finish shortly after they were back from that certain dungeon.

-Boooooooom!

But even though it wasn't retained as a skill yet, he was able to mold a significant amount of his flame attribute Mana into little leaves and flowers and release them at his opponent right after using [Light walk] to dodge his powerful attack that created the second largest crater in this now enclosed area.

-Zaaaaaaa-clung!

The sword slash of newborn leaves and petals of fire, shot with the destructive power of his Aura clove red sword, did certainly reach the target but right before the attack touched him, Ras stretched his hand back, covered it with his own Aura, and reseed it with a palm attack right at Lucy's sword slash.

'Palm of tranquillity destruction!'

This palm attack of his could have been something with the power to destroy an entire mountain in its original state but as it was now with his weakened state and the restrictions binding him, all he could do was block this certain attack from Lucy which was more than enough in that instance.

'First unleash: Splitting the heavens!'

He immediately followed up with his own attack but the short time he took to block that attack was something that gave Lucy more than enough time to prepare a formulated counterattack exactly for the attack his opponent was going to use.

'Six season desolation: Third chapter of Spring- Returning winds!'

A powerful Qi slash was coming towards him from his opponent's sword but Lucy was already expecting it so he coordinated his timing with the attack of his opponent and just when the slash of energy was close to him, he spun in midair with the edge of his Aura covered sword touching the upcoming attack and redirected the slash of Qi back at his opponent with a graceful movement...

Watching him fight was like seeing a professional classical dancer doing one of the best performances in his life while on the other hand, watching Ras use all those powerful moves against him was like seeing a monk who was overwhelmed with a beastly instinct of victory.

Both of them were using techniques in this fight, not skills but techniques that they had to prepare, think, and execute all by themselves in this fast-paced fight.

Had they possessed the same techniques as skills or skills that could aid them in the execution of these specific techniques, everything might have been different but, neither of them currently had the required skills for these specific techniques.

All Lucy had to aid him was his best combat skill, [Aspect of sword]. A skill with passive effects that helped him in the execution of all those techniques and made the world's restrictions relatively lower, and a skill with an active ultimate ability that he was going to use when fighting that bitch later on.

And, all Ras had was his own innate skill similar to Lucy's [Aspect of sword] called [Origin true heavenly arts], a skill with almost similar abilities, but something vastly different from what Lucy possessed.

It also aided him during the battles and in the execution of techniques even though he couldn't use them the way he used to. And, it also had an ultimate active ability, but he had no intention of using something like that during a mere school entrance test.

It had a long cooldown time and the energy cost was high as well, just like how it was with Lucy's skill, so using it was meaningless.

He was having fun as is, and even though his opponent was proving to be stronger than he had evaluated, it only meant things were going to be fun between them even if this little battle of theirs ended with unexpected results.

He was having fun even though he knew his opponent somehow already knew what kind of techniques and abilities he possessed and most of the things that he was going to do to attack, defend, and counterattack him during the ongoing battle.

'Golden earth turtle's defense!'

But it was still fun so he went on with his unique attacks with not-so-unique names… Lucy also wanted to test out a few more things so he continued using this perfect testing tool.

It was their battle, the battle of two swordsmen who would soon leave their names in the history of this world, as well as the rest of the Worldline. And, it was also a battle of powerful techniques, Mana, Qi… and their Aura.

They moved in this enclosed cave like the brush of an artist moving on an empty canvas where Ras created craters in the path he walked on resembling shapes and forms present in a drawing and Lucy danced in this canvas like a crane resembling the artist's finest strokes, lines, and impressions.

Their Aura, red and white, were the colors that this painting possessed along with the brown of the cave's soil, the gray of the rocks present here, and the black of shadows created by the light from different artificial sources.

And lastly, their passion, greed for victory, and the joy of this process itself were something they enjoyed individually in their own way.

It was fun. Fighting a strong and fine artist like their opponent was fun for both of them, however, a battle that starts certainly has to come to an end.

-Oooooooooong…!

"Ok, ok, haaa… it seems this is my loss."

And, the end of this battle was decided with Ras's victory.
