Chapter 120 Regressor of the Fallen Family Chapter 120 Kwaaaaang! An explosive sound awakened the tranquil night of the full moon. The eyes of the masked assailant widened in surprise as a wave of force pushed at him. In that moment, Logan, who had closed the distance in an instant, spoke. Thrilling, isnt it? The golden blade in his smiling face swung with enough power to split the world in two. Bang! The masked assailant staggered backward in confusion. How could this?! Despite having used Force Blade, he was shocked to be overpowered in sword force. He let his guard down after ambushing. Logan inwardly smiled at the irony, though his sword did not stop its advance. If the opponent was complacent, it was his duty to exploit it. A condensed golden light was just about to shoot from the tip of Logans blade when he felt a chilling killing intent from behind and instinctively rolled forward, abandoning his strike. Fwoooosh! Another Force Blade sliced through the air, close behind where Logan had just been. Two of them?! He hadnt sensed the second assailant until the moment before the attack. Logans expression hardened. A top-ranking knight resorts to ambush tactics with masks? Wheres their pride? He tried to provoke a response, but only swords lashed at him from both sides. No words spoken. Moreover, screams began to echo from inside the mansion. The masked assailants finally spoke upon seeing Logans stern face. This is the price for defying him. Just die quietly. However, those words only made Logans lips curl into a sly smile. * * * I swear, Ive got night duty for three straight days; could there be a bit of flexibility Ow! Okay, okay, I get it! Im heading out now! Jansen, a McLaine soldier who got hit for trying to shirk duty, grumbled as he walked through the mansions corridor.Updated from Thats because you swapped shifts with Leo on your day off. You brought this upon yourself. Now shut up and patrol properly. Hansen, a senior soldier, chided Jansen, who kept looking nervously behind as if he was wary of the knight following them. Tonight, of all nights, their companion in patrol duty was the knight Digrom, notoriously known for sticking strictly to principles and rules. Didnt he just earn the title of Waterside Knight? Shouldnt he be in a good mood once, take some time off? Seriously, why did the Duke suddenly assign us this task. Jansen was somewhat displeased with the excessive security that started right after the brief war and the capture of Bifrosttdeploying three squads of knights (18 men) and a hundred soldiers every day just to guard a mansion where only the lords family and servants resided at night. Those folks are mighty strong on their own. I should be the one needing protection, really. He couldnt voice his complaints aloud, so he let out a deep sigh and turned his head to look outside the window. Swoosh. He thought he saw something odd. Jansen, instantly alert, raised his right hand above his head, making a fist. It meant Stop. Situation abnormal. Drowsy soldiers snapped to attention and hurriedly took out their crossbows. Crrrrk. Machinery clicked as the weapons, more familiar than spears to the regular McLaine soldiers, were loaded in unison. Then, suddenly: Up! Knight Digrom barked a short command and swung his sword into the air. Kwaaaaang! Finally, a black-masked figure was revealed, being struck upwards, visible now to all the soldiers. Fire! On Hansens order, Jansen aimed at the figure with precision and fired the crossbow. Click. Two bolts rapidly shot out almost simultaneously. Papapapak. A familiar sound of arrows cutting through air. Yet, for some reason, he never felt he would lose. Even though still considered advanced level, his combat strength was different from when he defeated Aslan. Even if that strength was mostly due to an artifact, it was still encouraging. Facing two top-grade enemies, finding the mere possibility of victory seemed nonsensical. Hang on, and an opportunity will come. Logan focused solely on that thought and swung his sword cautiously. Chang, chang! Boom! He deflected the relentless assaults with minimal movement, smoothly redirecting them. He couldnt remain completely unhurt, though. As the fight dragged on, lacerations increased, forcing him into a blood-soaked frenzy to avoid being hit. Although he couldnt check, his face was likely pale as a ghost. But Logan was convinced that the expressions beneath his assailants masks were even worse. Theyre anxious. The screams had quieted down; it was nearly over, regardless of their numbers. They couldnt leave him, though. He had demonstrated enough prowess to bite fiercely at any vulnerability. A flaw soon revealed itself in the masked assailant in front. Die! Gone was the air of arrogance when they invoked his name earlier. Blazing red Force now enveloped them, attacks significantly faster and stronger. Overheat. Ignoring the consequences, the highest peak of attack using Force was actually welcomed by Logan. Just hang on for a moment longer, and the chance would arise. Chang, chang, chang! He concentrated on defense, letting his strength flow away with deflections. Yeeaaah! An overwhelming slash couldnt just be sidestepped with finesse. Kwaaaaang! Forced back nearly ten meters, Logan felt a cold sensation on his back and twisted his body in reflex, but was still hit by a burning attack that dug into his flank. Ugh! And with that, an agonizing pain pierced his head. Its over. A cold voice followed as the twisted blade moved sideways. Before his vision whitened, Logan spontaneously poured out a wave of golden light from his body, rather than his sworddirectly backward. Kwakwakwakwang! Cough! The assailant who had almost killed Logan was swept away by the golden wave. The first form of the Divine Blade Technique, Wave Splitter, had manifested from sheer will, without any proper Force control. And that could only mean one thing. Cough. Haha. A bloodied Logan smiled looking down at his sword. A clear, golden light overlaid the Lux, forming a distinct shape. Just moments ago, it was like a flaming Force, but now it was refined into the form of a sword. Force Blade No way! As honeysuckle as Logans current state was, the 30cm Force Blade rising from the tip of his sword was enough to horrify his adversaries. Seeing an increase in martial prowess during combata fairy tale lie from hero storiesunfolded right before their eyes. Kill him! Hes gravely injured! The thrown assassin screamed, charging in again. But the impact from the slash casually inflicted earlier had taken its toll; he couldnt fully blend into the darkness as before. Die! Spurred by the shout, the other masked figure hurled themselves back into fray. Should have attacked instead of running your mouth, fools. Whiteness burst from the bracelet on his right hand, rapidly healing most of Logans wounds. The golden Force Blade extending over 1m from his sword tip gracefully embroidered the dark night sky.
