A Demon's Journey

The entire Glerian Kingdom's forces knew about the Heretical Paladins. They undertook the most risks and successfully accomplished every mission. Each member of this group was a brave warrior who didn't fear death.

Each soldier of the Glerian Kingdom knew that even if the odds were completely against them, these guys would still come! After getting the news, the Heretical Paladins had never stood still. They acted immediately.

Even the forces of the Glerian Kingdom had no idea just who was creating the plan that allowed them to take such quick actions. In reality, there was no planner. They all just knew that the situation was greatly dangerous but would have no idea of the precise situation.

This was a rather troublesome issue. It would result in unnecessary injuries and deaths if not handled correctly. Thus, the Heretical Paladins resolved this issue in a very unique manner. The first thing they would do was launch multiple flame attacks and create an explosion near the situation.

Noah would rush out and investigate the place after a smokescreen had been formed. He would then issue commands to a number of guys and lead them in certain ways. They would then use their minds to handle the situation, respectively.

Initially, the Heretical Paladins found it quite difficult to work like this. But after multiple operations, they knew exactly what they had to do. At the least, they knew what they don't have to do.

The multiple operations had allowed them to gain vital experience and now, they were professional enough to easily keep their cool during a crucial operation. All warriors of the Heretical Paladins were working separately at this moment.

A small team of warriors was helping the soldiers of the Glerian Kingdom and freeing them by neutralizing these traps. Meanwhile, Noah was handling the attacks of the Sinyalian Kingdom's soldiers.

At this moment, Roman and his forces were still on standby. They were extremely shocked that a team of warriors had actually breached the Sinyalian Kingdom's barrier so secretly and were planning to rescue these trapped soldiers.

Roman continued to observe the situation for a little longer before he gave out a string of consecutive orders. He wanted to prevent the Heretical Paladins from achieving their objective.

He had already decided his target. It was Noah. He had noticed that there were no warriors around Noah. In fact, it seemed as though Noah was willing to fight alone. But Roman could see why that was the case.

Noah was certainly quite skilled. He knew exactly when to dodge, block, and counter an attack. Using these skills and a bit of his common sense, he was easily able to fight more than twenty soldiers of the Sinyalian Kingdom.

Roman was confident that he could deal with Noah alone. In fact, the presence of another warrior around him would only reduce his focus. Naturally, the other warriors were going to surround the rest of the Heretical Paladins and make it impossible for them to get away.

Then, they would be attacked from all sides. There were multiple youthful talents from the War General Association in Roman's forces. They were going to choose their own targets and fight them.

Naturally, they had noticed what kinds of elements the warriors of Heretical Paladins were using. They were going to choose their targets based on their elements. It would be a logical decision to choose targets over which they held an elemental superiority.

After that, they were filtering on the basis of who was a good close-combat fighter or mid-range fighter, or long-range fighter. This analysis was done under emergency situations. Meaning, under 10 minutes or so.

Once it was done, all warriors moved from their spots. The soldiers of the Sinyalian Kingdom began moving up as well. Nearly 20 or so soldiers remained behind to deal with Noah while the others were moving up to kill this new group of warriors.

Noah wanted to buy more time for his soldiers, so he turned around and threw released some dense sword slashes that were filled with sword qi. These sword slashes struck those soldiers who were moving towards the other members of the Heretical Paladins. The soldiers let out loud shouts of pain.

And by this time, Noah sensed something strange, and he immediately jumped away. A moment later, the ground on which he was standing shattered into pieces. Noah turned around and was surprised to see a youth standing over there.

And surprisingly, Noah could see bands of invisible energy around this youth's body. They were similar to his Sword Qi but also different. He was sure that this energy wasn't sword qi. Instead of the sharp feeling that the Sword Qi gave, this energy gave a feeling of pure power within them.

It had been a long time since Noah felt his sword reverberate with excitement. He clenched his sword tightly and the corners of his mouth rose. He realized that he was looking at a worthy opponent.

A genius who could at least make him work up a sweat. Noah stood on the ground and gazed at Roman with a very serious gaze. He took a deep breath before he disappeared from his spot.

Out of everyone standing on this battlefield, only Roman's eyes followed Noah's movement and could react to it. Roman's knuckle dusters clashed against Noah's sword and a metallic sound resounded in the area.

This didn't occur once, the sound of Noah's sword clashing against the knuckle dusters occurred repeatedly. However, not a single warrior on this battlefield was free enough to take note of this fact. They were all busy with their tasks.

Roman was surprised that Noah could use Sword Qi so proficiently. The Qi Roman was using was known as the Fist Qi. It gave the user overwhelming power and Roman had slowly become proficient in it.

He had fought against multiple Qi users and had always managed to suppress them by using the pure power ability granted by the Fist Qi. Among those warriors he defeated, most of them were Swordsmen who could utilize the Sword Qi.

After the initial contact, their weapon would either break or would be chipped. But when Roman stared at Noah's sword, he noticed that it remained unharmed. It was just bent slightly due to Roman's punch. When Roman stared at the Knuckle Dusters in his hands, he noticed a faint scratch over them.

This startled Roman as he realized that Noah's Sword Qi's Rank was equal to his Fist Qi. The pure power he gained from the Fist Qi couldn't completely neutralize Noah's Sword Qi.

Meanwhile, Noah was a little shocked as well. He had never met someone who could match his Sword Qi. He could see why his Sword reverberated earlier. This opponent was indeed worth fighting.

Roman took a deep breath in and thought with a relieved look 'Fortunately, I am not a one-trick pony. Or I would need to back off and think of some other plan to handle this guy.'

Noah didn't stop for even a second and approached Roman with an excited smile on his face. He used a sword technique known as the Triple Sonic Slashes. Within a split second, he launched three slashes at Roman.

Roman met these triple slashes with a single punch from him. It was known as the Devastating Punch! Roman had also used a bit of Gold Ardor to increase his power even more.

Noah didn't expect such a drastic increase in Roman's power. He lost his balance and was falling backward. There was a surprised look on his face.

Meanwhile, Roman had already charged up enough power in his other hand and was ready to smash Noah with it. Roman believed that he had Noah right where he wanted and could finish him off now.

However, Noah's eyes flashed with mischievous intent as his feet were firmly stationed on the ground and he held his sword tightly. The veins on his right hand were visible because of how firmly he was holding his sword.

He then swung his sword when Roman entered his range. It was the Blood-Red Sun Stance!

Roman's eyes widened when he noticed Noah actually executing a technique in that position. He had just regained his balance and he managed to launch an attack within a split second?! That was extraordinary!
