YM778.TV Chapter 462
After a few exchanges, the greatsword was on the verge breaking, no longer able to resist the pressure from the opponent . Leiu let out a sigh and let go of the sword, which turned into dust the moment it touched the ground . It held on until now only because he supplied with his power, nonetheless, it’s still a normal greatsword and can only do this much .
"Not only am I a parasite but I’m also a sword saint! You stand no chance!"
The green-haired man flashed a vicious grin at Leiu while raising his blue sword, about to finish his opponent once and for all . The only thing that was troubling him was Leiu’s greatsword which causes a tremendous amount of damage . It was like a moving mountain, demolishing everything in its way, it’s a wonder how Leiu is able to lift it .
Dozens of flying water sharks leapt at the nearby Leiu, ready to tear him into shreds, however, they reached a few inches away from him before crashing into a mysterious spiraling darkness .
The darkness was revolving around Leiu, creating a pillar of black light that penetrated the broken roof and pierced the sky-high, high above .
The Nameless Knight, still staring at the parasite with a chilling look, stretched his hand and said
"To live by the sword is to die by the sword . There is time enough for regret in the flames of hell . "
With this calling, something traveled through the rivers of time and space, disrupting the laws and splitting the heavens in its way . An existence no weaker than the Nameless Knight, a weapon that has no beginning nor end, the only one of its kind; Anduril, Eternal Darkness .
It was the same greatsword Arthur handed to Leiu in the forgotten continent, the same sword that accompanied the Nameless Knight most of his life and possibly the strongest weapon in the multiverse . Unlike Makaze, Anduril was a non-materialistic blade, meaning that it’s literally a part of Leiu . They aren’t bound by an oath but are the very same being .
It took him great effort to be able to summon Anduril but he finally succeeded and with his calling came a shadow that cast over the capital, blocking the rays of the sun and splitting the city in two .
From the heavens above, a shooting star came diving down, drilling into the earth and perfectly falling in Leiu’s hand .
"Let me show you what the epitome of sword mastery really is . "
Cold sweat running down his back, the parasite slowly backed away . His eyes were staring at the large greatsword in Leiu’s hand . It was eerily silent and emitted no pressure whatsoever, however, his instincts repeatedly warned him, even forcing his body to slowly back away .
With Anduril pointed at the green-haired man, Leiu used both of his hand to hold the greatsword before horizontally sweeping the air, sending a blow so devastating it shook the whole castle . A red beam of light faster than the parasite’s thoughts flew at the monster, turning it into nothingness .
The red beam didn’t stop, it cut the walls and whatever was beyond them, resulting in absolute destruction . Even after obliterating the enemy into nothing but emptiness, Leiu wasn’t convinced that he won .
Just like last time, a holy light floated several meters away from him and after a few seconds, the parasite appeared again, unscathed, of course .
"Hahahaha I already tol-"
Leiu’s figure turned illusory as he waved Anduril countless times, literally cutting the parasite into countless pieces . Blood and gore spattered in the surroundings as the youth frowned and focused on the numerous body pieces, trying to locate whatever was reviving the parasite .

Somewhere else in this complex labyrinth, the Joker was leisurely checking every room . He already killed three parasites so not many remain alive . However, something was strange, whenever they’re caught, they just let themselves be killed . They don’t fight back, attempt to flee or beg for mercy, confusing the Magician .
Along with the abundance of Mana Crystals, The Joker noticed other small objects scattered everywhere, even in the cramped halls . They were hanging on walls or hidden beneath the ground . He picked one up, intending to inspect it and see exactly what it is...
’0♥ Masquerade!’
His eyes shone with a golden light as they landed on the strange round object . A few seconds later, he creased his brows, a bit shocked .
"This is advanced stuff compared to the medieval world outside..."
He carefully held the object and entered a spacious room before throwing it at the far corner, resulting in a loud and pretty strong explosion . It wasn’t enough to injure him but if there were hundreds of such miniature bombs, it’ll not only kill him but also kill everyone in the city .
The quantity of these bombs he stumbled upon was staggering, to say the least . They were hidden in every inch of this place and if they were to explode at the same time, he won’t be able to escape, much less live .
"Perhaps they’re..."
A dangerous thought sprung in his mind, causing the Joker to frown . He retrieved his deck of cards and randomly picked a card
’Ghost Rat Trail: Activated!’
The Joker started the hunt for real, fearing that the parasites’ goal was to blow up this place if their summoning failed, which it will since Leiu will kill their leader .

At first, it was bearable and not risky to remain here, however, ever since Makaze appeared, Gutcha started feeling restless . The Dark Blade was acting strange, very strange, in fact . It wouldn’t be a lie to say it was trying to find a way to enter the black box but the object seemed to reject everything around it, including the rotating Evil Wind .
This wasn’t enough to alarm the pigolo but it only got worse as Makaze started emitting soul-shaking cries, loud enough for the powerful beasts outside to hear it .
One day, the whole cave started violently shaking and before the pigolo could process what’s happening, the roof split in two, revealing a dark and gloomy sky . To Gutcha’s shock and amazement, an archaic gate appeared on the sky, facing down, exactly toward him .
The restless Makaze fly like a kite toward the gate, which welcomed the Dark Blade . A cold and suffocating aura came out from whatever was on the other side of the gate, such aura scared the shit out of the nearby beasts, which turned tail and ran .
As for the pigolo, he stood there, flabbergasted and confused on what just happened . The roof, which was split in two, regained its normal form and the place returning to being a calm and gloomy cave .
*********
Back in Riarravar, the fight between Arthur and the Red Dragon, which was, in fact, Claudia, reached its climax with the two of them going all out to kill the enemy .
The place no longer resembled a throne room, actually, the castle was heavily affected by their fight and even the soldiers guarding the outside were alarmed and forced to retreat .
They were more surprised when they saw a red-dragon fly in the air and spit enormous fireballs at one particular man . The enormous fireballs either missed their target or clashed with strange and big waves made of Dark Magic .
After spitting several fireballs, the dragon spent a few seconds to conjure a stronger fireball before spitting it at Arthur .
This fireball was much, much bigger than the rest and the heat coming out of it was suffocating and enough to affect the royal garden way below, which already started showing of being scorched .
As he faced the incoming attack, Arthur held a bow made of Dark Magic and pulled the string countless times, sending a rain of arrows straight at the fireballs . As a last touch, he fired an arrow that had a length of 5 meters, it slightly resembled the Heavenly Arrow but lacked the other attributes .
The clash between the arrow and the fireballs caused a loud and deafening explosion as Dark Magic and dragonic flames scattered to all directions, even hitting some of the soldiers and killing them on the spot .
This fight was being witnessed by most of the citizens and they were unable to choose a side for they knew naught who’s siding with the Queen . However, seeing a human and a monster, most of them inwardly cheered for Arthur, who looked more harmless than his counterpart .
