Chapter 14: Concealing ones talent and name.
Manda gave a meaningful stare at the young man whose appearance was concealed. This was the first time in his life he felt the urge to slap someones face.
If youre not going to use a sword in a knights duel then what are you going to use to fight against me? Your head? Theres only one person in this world thats qualified to say those things to me sadly hes no longer of this world
However Ji Bai didnt throw the sword away all for the sake of being pretentious. The old fogey was extremely familiar with the moves he had. If Ji Bai were to use a sword it was inevitable that it would attract some unneeded suspicion from him. Such problems wouldnt exist anymore once he threw the sword away.
Even so Ji Bai wasnt going to lie to Manda.
Your granddaddy will always be your granddaddy!
Indeed the young are truly fearless! Manda gave a cold snort. He immediately took a bow step forward. The chilly radiance on his sword was overbearing as he suddenly thrust it stabbing towards Ji Bais vital pointthe throat.
This was the Holy Flame Knights signature move The Scarlet Beheader. It was a move that when done correctly it would inevitably take the targets life. Manda wanted to make the arrogant youngster in front of him understand that there was always a bigger fish. With this being said he really hadnt planned on taking his life; As a knight acts such as harming innocent civilians were something he would never do. All he wanted to do was to frighten the young lad. As such he had made sure that his move wouldnt go out of control and could be stopped at any time.
However Manda was incomparably flabbergasted when he saw that Ultraman had zero intentions to evade his move. Like a tall unmoving mountain he loftily stood in his original spot.
How arrogant! Looks like Ill have to give you a lesson!
Manda concentrated his mind. His long sword shot towards Ji Bai like a light beam it was to the point that he could feel the sword glittering. It was as if it could easily penetrate him in the next moment.
Well Looks like its still the same old Manda. Its appearance is flashy but
Repent for your sins!! With a flick of his wrist Manda pushed the sword hilt forward. The fierce glare in his eyes was now as sharp as his sword tip.
It was at this particular moment that the three bystanders couldnt help but hold their breath.
The leaves of the ginkgo trees that were floating above their heads were instantly split into two halves as the sword edge approached only mere inches away from hitting Ji Bai. However in Ultramans eyes its speed was like a clip playing in slow motion. He wantonly flung his head to the side the sharp longsword pierced through the skies.
What? 𝗳𝐫𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝗯𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Manda was slightly shocked. In just that split second Ji Bais reflexes had seemingly accelerated by a large amount. Ultraman who was motionless like a dead turtle had actually waited until Mandas sword was twenty centimeters away from him before acting. He simply dodged by moving his head and caused Mandas fast and insightful attack to miss.
Although Manda was deeply shocked it wasnt enough to impact the speed of his pursuit and follow-up attack. His hands that were holding onto the long sword began to dance causing gusts of wind to emerge. However it was like Ultraman was like a mudfish; every time the edge of the sword shouldve inevitably struck him he would effortlessly sway his body and avoid it.
Every move of Mandas was deadly and seemingly impossible to avoid yet they were being toyed around in circles by the Ultramans weird motions.
Crackle! Under the chilling sword tip the pitiful large tree behind Ji Bai was pruned. Each branch brought a wave of leaves with it as it incessantly drifted down towards the body of the two silhouettes both who were respectively attacking and dodging.
What is this situation? Is Teacher Manda deliberately holding himself back after seeing that the other party has no weapon? The short-haired knights eyes went round as he continued to observe the two unrecognizable silhouettes underneath the ginkgo tree. He no longer held any trace of contempt. The man behind the Ultramans costume who he once felt amusing now carried a sense of profound mystery in his eyes.
It doesnt matter who he is. Hes able to hold himself against Teacher Manda for such a long period of time with only his bare hands. Thats amazing in and of itself. The other knight sighed with emotion.
Who exactly who is this person?! This question was occupying the entirety of Mandas brain at the moment.
The sudden sword strikes that Manda had launched which he was extremely confident in and had seemingly no room to dodge would always fail at the next moment. The concentrated rain of sword strikes had failed to even scratch Ultraman by one bit. It was almost as if he was predicting all of his actions.
In fact the victor had already been decided. freewe(b)novel
Manda knew that he was completely defeated yet he was unwilling very unwilling to acknowledge the result. He just couldnt understand how and why he lost.
He had not suffered such a crushing defeat since that person passed away
His fast-exhausting strength could no longer mask the unwillingness that Manda harbored. Even though this was the case his actions were now unavoidably sluggish while his blade had lost the sharp luster it had before. His condition was like an arrow at the end of its flight however he was unwilling to stop and continued to flail around his sword.
Ka! It was at this moment Mandas movements stopped.
His blank face looked ahead and discovered that a hand in white gloves had firmly seized his sword.
You will undoubtedly lose your life if you get distracted in a battle.
Ultramans low muffled tone caused Manda to fall into a daze. This familiar speech it made him recall his previous teacher
When he came back to his senses he looked at the Ultraman who had firmly pinned his blade in front of him before finally letting out a slow sigh. Its my loss thank you for your teachings your excellency.
Then can I leave now? Ji Bai smiled as he released the hand that was holding onto the sword hilt.
Please do as you wish sir
The surrounding trio was shocked as they watched the scene progress. They hadnt even figured out the events that transpired earlier they were especially more clueless when it came to the outcome of the match.
E-Eh? A-Are you just gonna leave like that? Hold on a moment little guy! I dont even know what name I should call you! The owner of the noodle shop who had recovered from his daze quickly shouted.
Theres no need for any thanks. If you truly want to express your gratitude then thank the faraway Land of Light! The back silhouette of the costumed man continued to walk on ahead. He had seemingly no intention to turn back.
Without caring about what the knights beside him were discussing Manda was in a daze as he looked at the leaving silhouette. It wasnt until the figure disappeared that he slowly came back to his senses.
