The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess

224 Chapter 224

Two faint shadows leaving behind afterimages crashed against each other.

Alex’s reddish glowing sword collided with the icy layered sword of Albert creating a crackling sound forming a loud ripple in the air.

The heat of the sword clashes against the frosty sword creating a faint explosion with a sizzling sound.

A faint haze erupted outward due to the clash.

Albert exhaled fumes of icy air while Alex channelled his mana inside him.

‘This guy seemed to have a stronger ice affinity to the point he can control it with his free will. I didn’t think I would come across an elemental ability user.’

‘Maybe had consumed some natural treasure or had swallowed the heart of an ice dragon?’

‘This guy can be considered as the son of heaven in a way.’

Albert stared at Alex as they both assumed high guard and threw slashes at each other.

Albert retracted his sword and threw an overhand cut but Alex parried quickly as if the motion had been ingrained in his body.

Albert tried to throw Alex off balance and tried to cut through from another side but Alex parried it again quite easily.

They moved, back and forth creating a strong burst of ripples that blew away the layer of soil and dirt on the ground.

TANG!TANG!TANG!TANG!

CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG

Soft shockwaves spread one after another which eroded the upper layer of the soil while the trees that were at the side started to vibrate as they suffered the brunt and their barks started to crack bit by bit.

Bouncing on the back of his feet, Alex readjusted the grip on his sword. Holding it over his right shoulder, he waited for his opponent to make his move.

Alex deflected Albert’s attack and changed the projectile of his sword by attracting the last minute, making him quite frustrated.

It looked as if Alex was going to be hit by his sword but at the last moment, it didn’t.

Albert with the next cut thrust his sword aiming at Alex’s torso but Alex’s sword cut at the lower angel deflecting his attack and raising the tip of the sword to go up.

Albert missed the opportunity to attack much to his surprise and leapt backwards chopping Alex’s blade aside.

Alex didn’t fight for the blow or try to parry the attack; rather he used the momentum of the clash and used deflection to spin his body around and swing his sword at Albert’s head.

Albert lowered his back while raising his sword to parry the blow and slashed against Alex.

Alex dodged to the side, throwing a slash at Albert’s hand quickly.

Alex’s counterattack shocked Albert greatly.

Albert retreated quickly but a faint cut appeared over his knuckles but he didn’t let go of the grip of his sword.

Albert gnashed his teeth and gawked at Alex while pressing forward.

The two men closed, and Albert swung his sword while Alex just simply deflected the direction of the sword but Albert mutated the cut into a thrust.

He threw slashes, cut and thrust at Alex relentlessly driving him around the place.

Alex started to see the desperation in Albert’s eyes who tried to push him.

Albert, being frustrated, roared in anger pouring his mana into his sword. His speed increased by several margins.

Propelling his strength into the leg, he hurled forward leaving behind a large footprint on the ground.

He swept his sword in an attempt to hit Alex but as soon as his sword passed through Alex and cut into two halves, he was surprised to see that it was just an afterimage.

Swish!

A small blizzard erupted due to the cut freezing everything within a radius of 40 metres.

Albert’s eyes narrowed as he felt a small mana distortion behind his back and without any thought, he turned his body stabbing the space in front of him.

Alex who appeared behind him to attack was surprised to see his fast reaction and jumped back quickly still Albert’s sword brushed past his cheek following which a small gust of wind passed by him.

A small cut appeared and the blood that trickled froze forming a layer of ice over his cheek.

Alex wiped off the ice but at that time Albert was already upon him swinging his sword at him, however, Alex swiftly slid to the ground passing through the arc of the swing and getting up on his feet, bashed his elbow at Albert’s back.

BANG!

Albert was pushed forward as he was struck by a heavy impact but he used the momentum while spinning his body to slash at Alex.

A huge snowstorm emerged from the slash that struck Alex, blinding his vision.

A strong gust of frosty winds attacked him dragging him back while the strong slash that appeared before him suddenly burst before him exploding into a frosty layer of ice raining on him trying to freeze him.

BAAAM!

Alex shivered a little as he was suddenly hit by frost and the frosty mana tried to invade his body while everything around him froze and started to crumble into pieces of ice.

Alex’s upper body was frozen by the layer of ice.

“Huff!”

“Huff!”

With rough and heavy breathing, Albert stared at the cloud of snow before him. He thought that his attack might have frozen Alex into a statue resulting in his victory.

But his hopes were crushed as he saw a red glowing blade was swung following which a sound akin to tearing off paper reached his ears.

SHIIIIIING!

The layer of haze and cloud of snow was cut apart and blown away.

A strong gust of wind blew and everything dissipated around the place and Alex’s figure emerged covered in snow like a snowball.

As Alex circulated his mana, the snow melted emitting small vapours.

Alex’s body erupted with a strong aura and with each step he took, the ground beneath him cracked.

Alex with a large grin on his face,raised his sword at Albert with a mocking smile.

“Madman! Your time is up!”
