Chapter 1455: Intense Fight
Raikou let out a gentle breath, staring at Karna with a sharp expression.
Karna stared at his opponent without blinking.
*BOOOOOOOOOOM!*
The ground cracked and the sound of breaking the air was heard, two figures wrapped in powerful magic power burst out like bullets.
The speed was so fast that only two vague shadows were left in the space, and they met in the blink of an eye.
*Ding!*
With the sound of two metals colliding with each other, the sharp spear pierced like a flash but was easily blocked by a gentle swing of katana, causing sparks to splash in all directions, and the impact caused everything to be swept away.
"HAA!"
After blocking the spear's stab, Raikou suddenly lifted her katana, with a very swift movement without wasting any movement on her muscle, then in a moment, the katana swung down smoothly, like water, with an intention to slash Karna into two.
The action was so smooth that someone might have mistaken Raikou's class as an Assassin.
It was a pity, Karna's reaction was so fast that he quickly raised his spear with a very fast speed to block Raikou's attack. His eyes kept staring open and focussed all of his attention on Raikou's attack or else, he would lose his life.
*Ding!*
The sound of a metal collision once again, but this time, the sound of the collision was very quiet, it was a drop of water that fell to the ground, however, that was normal since the tip of sharp spear blocked the blade of the katana with extreme precision, showing that Karna's spear wasn't only based on his strength and speed.
After a moment of contract...
*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*
The next moment, a sharp spear in Karna's hand made three consecutive stabs, turning the tip of the spear into three fiery red streams, and aimed it at Raikou's throat, heart, and abdomen.
*Ding!* *Ding!* *Ding!*
The melodious and pleasing clash rang once again, and Raikou easily blocked Karna's attacks.
In this confrontation, what was surprising wasn't Karna's spear that had exceeded the human limit, but Raikou's action that had blocked all Karna's attacks.
Raikou's eyes seemed to be empty, but there was a strong light on them. Then in one movement, she swung down her katana like a thunder strike, blocking three of Karna's stabs.
Karna's stabs were quite impossible to do by a human since three of his strikes were being done at the same time and it could only be done because Karna had a superb spear and a strength that was enough to perform it, however, Raikou's "kendo" (the way of the sword) also didn't lose.
To block Karna's attacks, Raikou swung down her katana with very domineering action, and the spear that would pierce her throat, heart, and abdomen was cut down by her.
Obviously, the three vital points of the human body that Karna was aiming for were not in a straight line, but Raikou chopped down all of them with her katana.
Fierce sparks suddenly burst out in front of Raikou's throat, heart, and abdomen at the same time.
"Wonderful!"
At this moment, even Karna admired Raikou's kendo.
However, even though Karna's attacks were cut down by Raikou, at the same time, like a ghost, his spear flashed, turning the tip of the spear into fiery red spot, and dancing flowers of flames, containing a very high temperature that burnt the air itself, then directly pointed it to the direction of a vital point on Raikou's body!
Seeing this fierce attack that was aimed towards herself, Raikou showed a little surprise on her face.
'Has his strength improved?'
Raikou noticed that Karna's strength that was shown in the previous battle and the battle at this moment was different, however, when she thought about it carefully, she understood instantly.
It wasn't that Karna's strength had increased, but his constraints had disappeared.
After all, Karna's previous master was a Magus that was sent by the Magic Association. Although those groups of Magus were excellent, they were still not as good as the people of the Yggdmillennia clan who could rely on homunculus to provide an almost unlimited magic power. In other words, the magic power that could be provided by Karna's previous master was quite limited.
In order to avoid the situation where his previous master lost all of his magic power, and be defeated, at that time, Karna must have gone through precise calculations to avoid the consumption of magic power as much as possible.
In this way, the strength that he displayed at that time was quite limited.
But now, Karna didn't have that restriction, and he could maximize his strength regardless of the consumption.
The reason for that was probably because Karna's master had changed into Shirou Amakusa so he didn't need to worry about magic power supply again, after all, Shirou held the Holy Grail.
Before that, the Yggdmillennia clan had also prepared a line of magic power to connect to the Holy Grail with the servant and provided a servant with a magic power from the Holy Grail so that servant could have a boost on his power.
Karna's situation was similar and at the moment, he could use all of those magic power without limitation.
In other words, Karna was at his full strength.
It only took less than 0.01 seconds for Raikou to understand everything.
So when Raikou understood the cause and effect, she didn't dare to hold back anymore. Her stance changed from hard to soft, the trajectory of her sword slash changed, like a swallow in the sky, and all of Karna's attacks were blocked.
*Ding!* *Ding!* *Ding!*
The spark flew everywhere, causing the space to vibrate from the direction of their clashes.
*BANG!*
Above Karna's sharp spear, the flames began to burn freely, turning the spear into flames, covering the sky, earth, and Raikou.
*Crisp!*
In Raikou's katana, lightning also flickered.
The blazing spear and the blade of thunder suddenly collided again and again.
*Clang!* *Clang!* *Clang!*
The sound of the clashes was no longer as pleasing as before, but it was loud and sent a chill to anyone who heard it.
In such a fierce confrontation, Raikou finally retread.
*Crack!*
As the soles of Raikou's feet fell, the hard floor was trampled and cracked, spreading in all directions.
And this action caused Karna's eyes to flash suddenly and saw an opening on Raikou. He didn't waste this chance and the sharp spear on his hand burned with an intense flame, evaporating the air, and the long spear had completely turned into flames.
With the sound of howling wind, Karna rushed to Raikou with his fastest speed.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!*
A thunderous explosion resounded loudly in this world.
The spear of flame burst out like it was a bomb, setting off a strong wind, impact, and flame, billowing fire wave, engulfing Raikou's figure.
The flames almost immediately covered this space and expanded all the way, raising the temperature to very intense heat, causing the ground to make a burning sound, and scorching everything black.
Until, in the center of the flame, a flash of thunder flashed.
*BAANG!*
Within the explosion like the sound of fierce thunder and lightning burst out from the flames, moving in a straight direction, blowing the surrounding fire waves away.
When the flame and lightning met each other, Raikou and Karna retreated without hesitation and their footsteps fell on the ground one after another.
When the lightning and flames dissipated, Raikou and Karna were separated. by more than 100 meters.
This distance might seem huge, but it could be reduced to zero in a second by the two of them, but both of them stopped and stared at each other.
The thoughts on their minds at this moment were almost identical.
'As expected, he (she) can't be solved so easily...'
In their eyes, there was a glimmer of light and since both of them couldn't solve each other easily, then it was their time to use their trump card.
