First of all, how was it possible that just two knights could stand against a diamond-ranked sniper? Especially the ones that were upgraded by his system.
"Ah!"
A bandit yelled as he ca from behind Asher. Before he could bring down his sword, Asher grabbed his arm and slamd him from over his shoulder to the ground. He plunged his sword into the man's chest, pulled it out, and faced his next opponent without flinching.
Swaying left and right, he confused the next bandit for a short mont. Not willing to let go of that opportunity, he spun his wait, launching a fierce kick that sent the bandit 10 ters away. He collided with another bandit, and they both crushed a wooden building.
Not a sign of life ca from where they fell.
After dealing with the bandits, he turned back to Eritrea's battle. She kept a safe distance while launching arrows at these n, but neither of them were hit. At this point, Eritrea's pride was affected.
She closed the gap almost instantly, slid under the attack of the thin man, and punched the big man right at his lower abdon!
She swiftly pulled out an arrow and pierced it into the thighs of the thin one, causing him to grunt deeply.
"You…!"
The big man stretched his hand to grab her, but Eritrea suddenly sprung up like a compressed spring. In the process of sorsaulting midair, she nocked two arrows and fired through the big man's back!
Thud!
Eritrea landed elegantly and moved so strands of her hair behind her ear.
The thin one suddenly cut his palm and placed it where on his brother's wound, causing Eritrea and Asher to frown. Nero and his father were busy fighting and taunting as many bandits as they could.
The rest of the bandits ford a circle with Asher and Eritrea in their midst. Almost 80 bronze and silver-ranked n with different weapons were slowly encroaching, but their presence didn't match the fearso aura rising from the twins.
Knowing they might turn into sothing troubleso, Asher stepped on a bundle of straws, leaped over a large distance, and was about to pierce through the twins when three arrows ca for him. Eritrea countered the arrows with hers, but Asher, who deviated and landed a ter away from the brothers.
Boom!
A fierce gale caused dust to rise and his hair to flutter.
Before his shocked eyes, the twins rged to form a massive hulking figure. Asher could see the line in the middle of their faces, showing that although they rged, both n still had minds of their own!
Looking at the figure who could match Alec in height and beat Alec in size, Asher swiftly closed the gap and slashed at the man's left leg.
His blade cut the bandit leader's leg, but the wound healed up almost instantly. Bam!
Asher was slamd 12 ters away. The bandits widened the circle but did not take the opportunity to attack Asher.
They left both him and Eritrea for their leader.
Fwoosh!
Eritrea's hair blew backward as the bandit leader, who was so ters away, was now in front of her!
The speed did not match his absurd size.
Eritrea narrowly evaded his large palm and was about to create so distance when a spear was hurtled toward her from the back.
Eritrea leaned to her right. She turned in the next mont and shot an arrow, which pierced through the bandit leader's palm. That arm was paralyzed, but he could still move!
He appeared before her when his foot was almost before her. Eritrea jumped with all her might and landed so ters away.
Unfortunately, she landed in the midst of the bandits, and they lunged at her from all sides. Since their leader had a tough ti dealing with her, they had the privilege to take her as their prey.
Seeing Eritrea's dilemma, Asher dashed toward her. He stepped on the bandit leader's right thigh, jumped over his head, rolled on the ground, and swung his sword at a bandit.
Asher rcilessly slaughtered the bandits until he found Eritrea fighting in the midst of bandits. She was still able to stand her ground, and bodies were piling up around her. Her arrows could be seen embedded into the bodies of the corpses, and though she breathed heavily, her eyes were as sharp as an eagle's own.
A bandit ca from Asher's right with a spear, but Asher held the spearhead and looked at the stunned bandit. He reversed it and killed the man with his own weapon before removing the spear and hurtling it toward a bandit that wanted to attack Eritrea from behind.
Just as he was about to approach her, a piercing whistling sound fell into his ear.
"Your Lordship!!"
Eritrea scread, causing Asher to turn.
Splash!
Blood stained his face!
Asher looked at the sharp triangular spearhead right before his eyes. It ca out from the body of his personal bodyguard, Alex!
With a heavy grunt, Alex was about to pull out the spear when Asher stopped him. Pulling out the spear would cause excessive bleeding, and that would an death.
The physician was at the camp, so he had to make sure Alex got there fast.
He took Alex's sword from him and cut his forearm.
Having seen Asher's action, Eritrea aided Alex and began to run for the fortress gate. Although Nero was confused as to why they left their lord behind, he had to obey Eritrea's command.
"Lord Asher is still there!" He yelled.
"Run or you might not make it out of that gate."
Eritrea's grave tone sent shivers down Nero's spine. While following them, he looked back.
As the blood flowed down, Asher walked toward the bandit leader with two swords in his hands. For the first ti, he was about to dual-wield like his ancestors.
His eyes turned white.
Instantaneously, everything about Asher changed. He swung both swords at a speed that only those who were really proficient with dual-wielding for decades could and took a battle stance with his left sword up and the right one down.
"Hahahaha! I have killed 10 diamond-ranked beasts, 10! But I like it when my prey is fierce."
Two voices ca out of the bandit leader's mouth at once.
Boom!
The rocky ground imploded as Asher shot forth, appearing right before his eye. The bandit leader swung his cleaver downward with a boisterous laughter, but to his shock, instead of dodging, Asher clashed with him and didn't slide even one inch back.
The intensity of force billowing out of him was unnatural.
It felt as if many terrifying knights were looking at him through those glowing white eyes.
Before the bandit leader could even blink, Asher slashed his abdon and kicked him with so much power that the big man slid 4 ters back.
For the first ti since he got this unparalleled talent, he felt pain!
That feeling alone brought fear.
As Asher calmly walked toward him, footsteps fell into his ears causing him to tilt his head toward the right. From the corner of his right eye, he saw dozens of bandits rushing over.
"Ahh!"
Nero who cut down a bandit at the gate heard screams causing him to turn. What he saw made him unable to move as fear enveloped him.
In what seed to be an instant, corpses were littered around his lord. Bodies fell like flies and all he could see was sword slashes and not even his lord moving!
Forget him, even the bandit leader was filled with horror.
"Nero move!"
