"cut..."
Dissatisfied, Koshimura removed the force field effect pedal from the guitar sword and looked at the guitar case with a hole in it.
"You seem to have misunderstood something." His voice was exceptionally clear in the rain.
"No one gave me anything, and I didn't come here for anything."
He reached out and rummaged through the guitar case behind him.
If I had to say, all I want right now is—
The wah effect pedal was forcefully shoved into the groove on the guitar sword.
"Your stumbling block is beyond words!!!"
An angry voice from a zoo announcer pierced through the heavy rain and echoed over the overpass for a long time.
"...Er Yi 々II「I Wu Qi Jiu Liu Shan」Er is very good."
When the sound was finally drowned out by the rain, Sato Masaru's cold voice rang out.
"You irritate me."
He swayed, put down the violin case, and reached for the metal zipper.
bass--
The magic energy blast struck his left hand, which was covered by a black leather glove, with a dull thud. Although it failed to penetrate, it successfully interrupted his movements.
Koshimura Sawa chuckled: "Did you think I was some kind of villain from a tokusatsu drama, specially created for you to transform into—"
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly took a step back, his figure disappearing into the silvery mist.
His gaze passed over the violin case that had been tossed into the air to obscure his view, and fell upon the black-painted sword blade hidden behind it.
Four taut strings were inlaid on the broad blade, with adjustment knobs above them. It slammed heavily onto the spot where he had just been standing, leaving a spiderweb-like crack in the ground.
...What's this?
When the man raised the bow with his left hand and placed it on the four strings, the question in Koshimura Sawa's heart was finally answered.
—Cello?
Ignoring Koshimura's astonished gaze, Sato Masaru pulled the bowstring taut without hesitation!
hum-
A deep, resonant string sound rang out.
It completely lacked the elegant qualities of a cello, instead filled with malice and madness.
As the strings hummed, darkness seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, frantically converging upon him.
Finally, it surged behind him and solidified into a black cloak that seemed to solidify into a tangible form.
Crusader Cloak?
But what's with this special effect?
Just as Koshimura Sawa raised his hand to hang the double curse of the cursed sword and the fragile one, he saw him gripping the incredibly heavy greatsword with both hands, tearing through the air with immense force, and slashing down at the waist!
Without hesitation, he activated the [Stealth Step] and dodged to the side again.
He casually unleashed another magic energy blast, shooting it directly at the opponent's sword-wielding arm.
With little success.
With the broad blade held horizontally in front of him, he easily blocked the impact of the magic energy explosion. His black cloak billowed slightly, absorbing all the dissipated energy.
...trouble.
Koshimura looked at Sato Masaru walking quickly toward him.
And the black light emanating from the greatsword he held in his hand.
The paladins...it seems they should be the main force.
This means that the opponent's agility attribute should be at the same level as yours.
Using the Shadow Steps several times in a row has depleted a significant amount of my magic power.
The fact that the previous attacks didn't trigger panic suggests the opponent has a high immunity to perception, especially considering the Paladin's innate protective aura—
We can't put all our hopes on effects pedals.
However, at least one thing is certain—
He couldn't use any other spells that required concentration until the opponent removed the Crusader Cloak.
For paladins who lack mobility and ranged attack capabilities, as long as they can create distance in time, they can buy enough time to recover their magic power and then look for an opportunity to defeat the enemy in one strike.
Okay, that's it—
Koshimura raised the Star Blade in his hand, looked up, and stared at the gun barrel that had suddenly appeared in front of him.
After the crisp sound of the trigger being pulled, a blinding flash of light shot out from the muzzle.
He looked down at the wound on his abdomen in disbelief, then looked up sharply at the enemy wielding the greatsword and the pistol he pulled from under his trench coat.
Holy crap, that's so sneaky?
Bull Demon, you're a paladin!
Gunshots rang out one after another, and Koshimura hastily raised his shield, blocking all the remaining 6 bullets.
Without giving him any chance to catch his breath, Sato Masaru pressed down on him again the instant his movements faltered due to the pain.
The broad blade instantly tore through the thick rain curtain, slashing down fiercely towards Koshimura's neck with unstoppable force.
The transparent shield shattered instantly, and Yuecunze's pupils contracted sharply. He immediately tried to use the Mysterious Step to dodge.
But at that moment, an irresistible fear, seemingly emanating from the depths of his soul, suddenly gripped his throat.
His body began to tremble violently and uncontrollably, and he froze in place, unable to move.
He could only watch helplessly as the giant sword, shrouded in dark energy, rapidly enlarged in his field of vision.
Damn——
Who says paladins aren't cunning?
Just as the cold blade was about to make contact with the skin.
Three options suddenly popped up in front of Koshimura Sawa.
[A. Swings sword to deflect]
[B. Swings sword to deflect]
C. Swing the sword to deflect the attack.
...?
Sato Masaru's lips curled into a cruel smile as he looked at the giant sword that was inches away from Koshimura Sawa, already envisioning the scene of his head falling to the ground.
However, the expected sensation of flesh being torn apart did not occur.
A strong shock suddenly came from the sword, forcefully knocking the heavy greatsword away.
The immense impact made his arm go numb, and he involuntarily staggered backward a step.
Steel clashed, sparks flew.
The two figures passed each other.
...?
Sato Masaru's smile froze on his face. He turned around in astonishment to look behind him at the long sword that shimmered with starlight, which was held in Koshimura Sawa's hand.
How can it be?
Hasn't he already fallen into a state of panic caused by the "manifestation of terror"?
"Options, aren't they amazing?"
Koshimura raised the sword blade, which was shimmering with starlight, and a ghostly blue arc of electricity began to crackle around its surface.
In the blink of an eye, it was already within reach, slashing down towards his astonished face!
Chapter Seventy-Five: Thunder and Fire (4.7K)
The viaduct, Maybach.
Although it wasn't a rainy night, the overcast sky made it seem almost like nighttime.
The good news is that the Maybach is on the other side.
The bad news is—you are not Odin, nor do you have an eight-legged steed.
The sword blade whistled down, slicing through the rain and carrying the sound of the wind.
Just as the bow was about to touch his face, the man raised the bow in his left hand.
The Star's Edge was stuck on the metal bow, the dazzling starlight and shadows vying for dominance, making it difficult to advance any further.
The next moment, a deep, bone-revealing wound suddenly appeared on Sato Masaru's side.
The trench coat, along with the stab-proof vest underneath, was pierced through and rendered useless.
Scalding hot blood mixed with icy rainwater flowed down in torrents.
"What—?!" Sato Masaru exclaimed in surprise. Ignoring the numbness in his arm from the electric shock, he forcefully swung his bow to deflect the stuck Star Blade and used the momentum to retreat.
Then, in disbelief, he looked up at the ominous shadow held in the boy's left hand.
【Shadow Blade】
In both D&D 5E and 5R rules, when fighting with dual weapons, both weapons must have the [Light] attribute.
Because the Guitar Sword uses the template of a longsword, it only has the attribute of "dual-purpose". Even though the Shadow Blade has the characteristics of "agility", "lightness" and "throwing", it cannot be dual-wielded in combat.
But this is the real world.
The sword is already in my hand, do you think you can stop me from cutting it?
Even without the attribute modifier bonus, the Shadow Blade, which deals 2d8 mind damage per hit, will only make the attack even more intense!
A ruthless glint flashed in Sato Masaru's eyes. He immediately removed the Crusader Cloak and drew his bow once more.
The shadow instantly dispersed, surrounding him and coalescing into a semi-transparent black shield.
But just as the shield was about to take shape, Koshimura Sawa, wielding the Shadow Blade, arrived in front of him.
The speed is even greater than before!
The Shadow Blade silently sliced through the air, striking the still-forming shield, and passed right through it without any hindrance.
Seemingly because it also originated from the shadows, this sword strike was not recognized as an attack by the shield.
This is truly divine intervention!
The instant Sato Masaru swung his bow to parry, Koshimura Sawa's other sword arrived as expected, carrying long-accumulated lightning, and with all his strength, it slashed diagonally upwards towards his neck!
The shield shattered instantly.
The terrifying lightning, originating from the sword blade that had struck his shoulder, instantly spread throughout his body, emitting a burnt, foul odor.
Koshimura Sawa dodged again, creating distance between them.
It's my favorite multiple-choice question again.
If you move, you'll have to take the second hit of damage left by the Thunderclap Sword.
If you don't move, then just stand there and take the beating!
In mid-air, he exchanged the two swords in his hands.
The hilt of Star's Edge was gripped tightly in his left hand, while the Shadow Blade began to rapidly collapse and deform in mid-air.
In the end, all that ended up in his right hand was a black pick that exuded an aura of shadow.
Place the string on the string and sweep it downwards without hesitation!
A beam of eerie green light shot out, but this time, a torrent of black energy followed closely behind, merging with the magical energy burst and slamming heavily into Sato Masaru's chest.
