The First Form of the Ultimate Shadow Sword Technique: Open

Along with a shockwave, a massive force and energy violently shook the space, causing the existing fissures to spew out bloody chaos.

In the unstable space, the two individuals stared at each other for a few seconds.

Jin was the first to close the distance. His shining blue sword and his body moved like light, charging towards Luntia.

Crack!

An earthquake occurred as Sigmund and Charles clashed.

In the first exchange after unleashing the Sword of Legends, Jin realized that Luntia had become even stronger than before.

“Elder Sister Mary's Volcano?”

The seventh final movement independently transformed by Mary Runcandel.

Her Volcano is used as a strengthening technique, unlike the original self-destruction mechanism.

Jin had never heard of Mary teaching Luntia her Volcano.

'...No, it's different.'

Mary's Volcano exerts great pressure on the user's body but doesn't completely destroy it.

However, the Volcano that Luntia unleashed was tearing every part of her body apart continuously. Like a statue breaking, every part of Luntia's body was tearing and exploding, repeating the regeneration process in an instant.

In other words, Luntia just changed the form of the "explosion" and essentially received a similar discharge to the original while unleashing the Volcano.

It was possible due to her chaos-induced regeneration and her transcendently strong body.

Jin felt sadness and regret facing such formidable power.

It was because the bloodline with the potential to become a powerful sword of this generation ended up becoming a monster.

[This is the sword I prepared for you, younger brother.]

[Chaos users I've experienced so far have no qualms about breaking their bodies.]

Not just those without power but also those who have it mostly acted the same.

Ron, Smarion, Stam, Lionel, Padler, and Luntia, whom Jin had faced.

Only Ron Hairan finally overcame his madness and ascended to the rank of Genesis Knight, and the significance behind that fact was clear.

Only those who are cautious about breaking themselves can move to the next stage.

Otherwise, they can only end up jumping into the fire like a moth.

[What do you mean by that?]

[Elder Sister, you've become stronger, but that's all.]

[You're already vomiting blood.]

Even as her body broke and regenerated repeatedly without rest, Luntia remained stable.

On the other hand, Jin gradually retreated from the moment he started attacking seriously.

The three powers Jin possessed were organically connected and supplemented the deficient parts of each attribute.

Since Shadow Energy is the core of enhancement among them, it was logical that now that it was depleted, he lacked in all aspects compared to usual.

[Of course, you must still have hidden sword techniques. Show them to me; I want to feel excited.]

With a crazed laugh resonating like a maniac's, Luntia became increasingly fierce as the fight intensified.

Is madness covering the pain? Jin thought as he watched her thrash.

Jin's movements gradually slowed, unlike Luntia, who ran rampant.

Luntia judged that Jin's physical strength was consumed faster because he was quite exhausted when he arrived here, and it was actually true.

Jin was just becoming more cautious, waiting for the opportunity to end the fight with a single blow.

[It seems you know everything, right?], Jin mocked.

[Stop the nonsense; this is my last battle], Luntia replied.

Bones trembled and quivered.

As Luntia's sword increased in speed, Jin could feel Charles digging deeper into his flesh.

It's not that Jin gained nothing.

It seems there are gaps in her regeneration.

In real-time combat, there are inevitably physical limitations that can cause a fighter's body to break down.

The intervals between attacks were so short that only someone as skilled as Jin could detect them.

Jin analyzed the pattern of those intervals.

Although they were irregular to the point of being unpredictable, Jin felt he could impose his own rules.

He would guide Luntia's attack patterns in the direction he desired.

I don't have Elder Sister Goddess of Battle's senses, but it's possible as long as Elder Sister Luntia doesn't stop.

Jin's swordsmanship began to take on a form as smooth as water.

Luntia thought this was the countermeasure Jin chose.

Of course, that doesn't mean Luntia didn't prepare anything.

She expected Jin to have some countermeasures. But she couldn't follow Jin's movements because she lost her mind.

And when Charles grazed her neck two more times, Jin had the perfect opportunity to finish Luntia.

"Now."

When Luntia's attack started to change from bottom to top, Jin jumped into the air as if propelled by an external force.

Luntia didn't miss the gap and unleashed a series of lightning-speed thrusts toward where Jin's body floated and the anticipated landing point, a blind spot Jin couldn't perceive.

You can't avoid it.

At that moment, Jin unleashed the next form of the Ultimate Shadow Sword Technique he had been holding back.

Sword of Legends, Tenth Sword, Second Form.

Sword of Legends - War

The lightning energy formed in Jin's eyes emitted an even bluer glow.

As if Luntia had been waiting for that, she concentrated her energy on the tip of Charles' Sword.

Along with the murky black light unique to chaos, the heavy black light of Aura was forming.

Runcandel, Fourth Secret Technique

Black Cross

A sword Jin had once seen when facing Hedo in the past.

Charles' blade, drawn in a cross, seemed to pierce through Jin side to side.

Although Luntia also felt the sensation of slicing flesh as she swung her sword, it was superficial.

There are times when Joshua is useful.

In the past, when he fought Hedo in the White Night Tower, Jin had once seen Joshua's black cross.

Luntia's secret technique was incomparable to Joshua's, but Jin minimized the wounds thanks to the memories of that time.

Soon, the black cross sword technique surrounded Jin, drawing a massive circle, and in the middle of it, a black sword energy in the shape of a cross erupted, instantly enveloping Jin.

It all happened in an instant.

The black cross sword technique was shattered by the lightning energy of the Sword of Legends.

Of course, the Ultimate Shadow Sword Technique Jin unleashed exceeded Luntia's expectations.

For the first time, Luntia seemed to retreat, but she still took most of the lightning energy that pierced through her body.

[Ugh.!]

Luntia's body was repeatedly pierced with holes the size of human heads that kept appearing and disappearing.

The speed at which the Sword of Legends destroyed her body and the speed at which she was regenerating were almost the same.

'The Volcano hasn't erupted yet. Still, Elder Sister Luntia is almost an immortal being in this subspace with such regenerative power.'

Luntia withstood the second form of the Sword of Legends and the blows of her Volcano.

Only a handful of people in the world can withstand this level of damage.

Even those stained with chaos.

Originally, Luntia couldn't do it, but the reason she endured was the "subspace of Luntia."

All the chaos energy composing this subspace was no different from Luntia herself.

In other words, Luntia is using all the subspace energy originally created by Solderet.

That means Jin had to destroy an entire subspace to kill her. As long as the chaos energy remained in the subspace, it was impossible to kill Luntia.

[Kaaaaaa......!]

Luntia, who had been thrown by the shockwave of the Sword of Legends, struggled like a trapped beast.

She knew that if she reached Jin once, she could bring him down.

She also knew that if Jin had arrived without depleting his stamina, she could never have defeated him.

Jin sweated and controlled the lightning energy of the Sword of Legends.

He had reached the point where he experienced no backlash, but he couldn't stop the rapid consumption of his aura.

Luntia was right.

If Jin had entered the tomb with his Shadow Energy fully intact, the situation might have been the same, but the result would have been different.

If Jin had his Shadow Energy, he would surely have won the battle even if he had fought this kind of exhausting power battle with Luntia and her subspace.

But not now.

Although Luntia's regeneration speed couldn't keep up with the destructive power of the Sword of Legends, in the end, when the battle came to an end, Jin's energy would deplete first.

Even if Jin added his mana from now on, it was the same.

It was quite dangerous to add mana to the unleashed Second Form of the Sword of Legends.

If an inevitable gap occurred when using mana, the precarious power struggle would tilt towards Luntia immediately, and since the subspace is a "Dead World," Jin couldn't summon Tess.

Luntia's stride approaching Jin gradually widened. Even as Luntia's body twisted, the sword she held, Charles, pointed at Jin precisely without moving, like a haunted ghost.

[You must be tired... and frustrated... I understand... it's unfair].

At Luntia's words, Jin closed his eyes once.

However, the decisive moment for Jin was now.

He had no intention of risking his life by adding more mana or unleashing more aura beyond his limit to face her, who had all the subspace energy.

The last move Jin had kept to face her, who was connected to the subspace, was his Shadow Energy.

A connection point.

Jin had been convinced from the start of the battle that there would be a connection point between Luntia and the subspace.

Luntia was not originally the owner of the subspace.

She only became the owner thanks to the Prophet's schemes.

Therefore, it was natural for there to be a connection point for assimilation with the subspace, and Jin had read the Shadow Energy's movement throughout the fight.

Using the Sword of Legends was precisely a means to pinpoint the connection point accurately.

There they are.

Srrr...!

Amid the roar, Bradamante silently emerged from the sheath.

He consumed almost all of his remaining Shadow Energy to open the door, and not a drop was left.

Jin gathered all his remaining Shadow Energy and activated Bradamante.

[No, this is the end, elder sister.]

The Sword of Legends was unleashed.

Immediately after, Luntia recovered from all her injuries, and Jin cut the connection points between Luntia and the subspace with the black-stained sword.

Luntia showed no sign of subsequent recovery once the connection points were cut.

Her secret technique was incomparable to Joshua's, but Jin minimized the wounds thanks to the memories of that time.
