Acting swiftly, he promptly alerted Magnus, Chad, and Lisa that a confrontation might be imminent and he might require their assistance to safeguard the townspeople from any potential harm.
With this precautionary measure in place, Vale addressed the suspected Demon Saint while fully on guard.
"Are they yours? Those items looked sinister... I wonder, why would you bother circulating those cursed items if you have the power to create chaos without them..." Vale queried, adopting a composed yet inquisitive tone as he sought to engage the enigmatic visitor in dialogue.
He wanted to know more about their plans and also about the Demon Saints themselves.
They were basically showing themselves in broad daylight as if they weren't afraid of any Arcanists that could hunt them down!
'Are they that confident that no one could hurt them?' Vale thought as he prepared for a fight.
"Haha... You could say so. I placed all those curses in them so I noticed when they disappeared. I didn't expect someone to easily see through that. However, since you're an incomplete Immortal, I guess it's not that surprising," the enigmatic individual responded with a sardonic chuckle while gradually materializing a black sword from the void.
To be precise, the weapon was entirely composed of black energy, fashioned into the form of a sword.
It became evident that a confrontation with this person was inevitable.
"Although your physique isn't that great... You should still have some Divinity in your body... It should still give some nutrients I need." The mysterious figure remarked, alluding to Vale's inherent Divinity.
"Divinity? So you're really a Demon Saint..." Vale acknowledged, simultaneously instructing Yvaine to retrieve his Doombringer Sword.
Upon drawing his sword, electric sparks began to emanate from the blade, as if it were being charged for the impending clash.
"Good sword!" the Demon Saint commented as he swiftly lunged toward Vale with his dark sword in hand.
Concerned about the potential danger posed to the townspeople, Vale promptly activated the Fiend's Wrath Spell, which had already reached the Perfect Realm.
Whom~
The activation of the spell covered Vale by a distinct beastly aura that boosted his strength.
Boom!
lightsn?v?l The ensuing clash resulted in a resounding impact, propelling the Demon Saint into the cursed forest!
Vale's unexpected surge in strength, courtesy of the amplified spell, caught the Demon Saint off guard, tipping the scales decisively in Vale's favor.
"What an incredible physique… I didn't expect that you're a Knight—"
Before the Demon Saint could finish his words, he realized that his opponent was preparing to unleash an unexpected spell, contrary to his initial expectations.
He had anticipated a close-combat confrontation with the strength that Vale had shown. He knew that the strength that threw him away was something that no human could possibly do!
It was no wonder why the Demon Saint was taken aback when a potent surge of Holy Energy enveloped the surroundings.
"Holy Smite!"
A resplendent burst of sacred energy descended from above, engulfing the Demon Saint and searing his corporeal form.
Astonished by the overwhelming power of the attack, the Demon Saint found himself questioning the true identity of his opponent.
"So powerful?! Am I contending with a high-level priest?"
The realization dawned upon the Demon Saint as he fought with the powerful holy spell.
The unexpected descent of a level 10 or Perfect Realm Holy Smite caught him off guard, inflicting considerable damage.
He used a Physical Defense Spell just now because of Vale's Fiend's Wrath Spell… He didn't expect a sudden switch of Arcane Path from him!
"Aaagghhh!" A thunderous bellow echoed through the vicinity as the Demon Saint's horns surged with black energy, repelling the holy smite and averting further injury.
As the residual smoke dissipated, the Demon Saint observed the lingering effects of the attack on his body, only to witness his injuries gradually dissipate as a radiant purple light emanated from his horns.
"Not bad! However, you should've seized that opportunity I presented to you..." The Demon Saint remarked as he propelled himself toward Vale with a menacing aura.
That Holy Smite was a powerful spell and there was no way that his opponent could immediately recover from that… Furthermore, it must've exhausted his energy!
Empowered by an ominous force, the Demon Saint exuded a formidable strength that Vale had never before encountered in his adversaries.
Clang!
In an instant, their swords clashed as the energy of lightning and the force of malevolence created a shockwave that destroyed the surrounding trees and killed the innocent wild animals around.
Nevertheless, while Vale and the Demon Saint engaged in a relentless exchange of swordplay, Yvaine found an opportunity to leave Vale's side to set up an ambush at a later time.
'Tsk… Did I not fully recover yet? Why am I struggling against an incomplete Immortal?' The Demon Saint thought as he realized that his energy was being consumed too quickly in each clash against his opponent.
It was something very unusual, so he could only blame the environment.
He couldn't help but condemn the human realm that was still filled with Arcane Energy and not Evil Energy.
It was a shame, but if cursed artifacts had fully activated and created chaos, he would surely have had enough energy to kill the pest in front of him!
'You're lucky, incomplete Immortal!'
The Demon Saint then burst with power, aiming to cut his opponent into two!
On the other hand, Vale didn't care about Demon Saint's sentiments as he executed the Shadowblade Dance technique, deftly maneuvering through the chaotic flurry of strikes and counterattacks.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The clash of their blades reverberated through the air, accompanied by the crackling discharge of arcane energy that continuously destroyed the surroundings!
Nevertheless, despite the ferocity of their duel, neither emerged as the clear victor.
'So, annoying!'
The Demon Saint felt incredibly frustrated as he couldn't get a clean hit on his opponent.
Although he was immune to many Spells, he couldn't maintain this for long.
"You're lucky, young man… Once the Abyss Realm starts merging into this Realm, I will not be this weak! Let's face again once I'm ready!"
As he said this, he immediately turned his back and was about to use a mysterious spell to disappear…
However, Vale has been waiting for this opportunity!
