I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated

Chapter 447: An Expert and an Amateur

A pillar of white lightning swallowed Fran and the Marquis, piercing the sky and earth with a roar.

When the huge amount of dust settled, there was a crater about five meters in diameter and Marquis Ashtner were groaning on one knee in the middle of it.

Unlike Fran and her equipment, which is protected by her thunderbolt nullification, the Marquis's orichalcon magic armor is half-melted and smoke is rising from his whole body.

The reason why the crater is smaller than I imagined is because the Marquis quickly created a wall with magma magic to reduce the power. In that time, Fran cut off his left arm. Well, half of it has already almost regenerated.

「Gogaah……」

However, I think he knows that by getting down on one knee, he is showing the biggest opening. He turned his ghostly eyes toward us. He was ready for any move Fran might make.

Fran moved away slightly to avoid the lava barrier, but she took the opportunity and prepared for a follow-up attack.

She let the black lightning rack up and stepped in at once. With that momentum, she struck Marquis Ashtner with a slash from above.

「There's an opening!」

「Guoooooo!」

Gagiiiiii!

A moment of fierce clash.

Marquis Ashtner is far superior in terms of strength, but he is in the disadvantageous position of being on one knee and wielding his sword with one hand. On the other hand, Fran swung me from above while keeping her speed. In addition, the black lightning that flowed through my sword was damaging his arm.

As a result, the swords of the two sides were locked against each other, and both sides stopped moving. However, this was exactly what Fran were aiming for.

She didn't make eye contact, nor did she give any signal. But Fran seemed sure of it.

There was no way Eliante and the others would miss this opportunity.

「Dieeeee!」

「Sonic Blow!」

「Spiral Bash!」

In the face of the overwhelming power of Fran and the Marquis, Eliante and the others realized that they could not do anything about it, so they gathered their strength, looking for an opening.

Their attacks attacked the Marquis at once. Eliante's great sword, clothed in Ki, swung down at super high speed, Colbert and Zephyrd's mid-range attacks pierced him from both sides.

In particular, Eliante's blow was as powerful as Fran's serious Sheaths of Wind.

The Marquis――They are indeed strong (1). They have superhuman-level bodies and overwhelming skills. In addition, the way they fought, they were able to handle those skills perfectly. This is why his sword saint skill were able to clash each other evenly with her sword king skill.

But when it came to battle tactics, there seemed to be a breakdown. The Marquis is literary a civilian from the beginning, and the Fanatics-like beings who control his body are not considered to be professionals in combat. We can overwhelm him with our abilities in a head-on fight, but in subtle tactics, we're losing to him.

Zephyrd and his party member have been destroyed because they had confronted him head-on with a straightforward attack. In the first place, they were not expecting an opponent that would launch a series of attacks that would break Zephyrd's shield.

Moreover, he had the conceit of a strong man. He was clearly trying to get a handle on us. Eliante and the others didn't even seem to be paying attention. The fact that he drives the existence around him out of his consciousness was also amateurish.

「Guaaaa!」

Marquis Ashtner is blown away by the attacks of three people. Even so, he managed to keep Eliante's sword out of the way, which was impressive.

「GugaGAga…Small fry gaah! You're getting carried away!」

His speech is a little slurred, probably due to the broken bones in his neck. However, he glared at Eliante and the others who were standing around him with eyes laced with killing intent, intimidating them.

「I'm gonna kill you!」

I knew it, you're still an amateur. While you're talking about killing them, you should be taking action. My brother in Pro-sh〇t (2) said something similar!

And Fran is a pro at that, you know?

「First, I'll mess this area with magma――」

As he turned his killing intent to Eliante and the others, his attention was diverted from Fran for a moment. It was only for a moment, but it was our chance.

It was more than enough of an opening for us. Fran, who showed superhuman reflexes, started preparing the moment the Marquis showed an opening. It is the preparation for unleashing the sword king technique.

She is not yet at the stage where she can unleash the sword king technique anytime, anywhere. She still needed to make a preliminary movement to swing the sword over her heads, and a comfortable posture to swing it out. In addition, she needed time to knead her magic power. She would need a few moments to prepare for this.

No, if the opponent was a small fish, there would be no problem. A moment of this magnitude could not be called a gap. However, if the opponent was an equal match for Fran, it was a fatal moment.

However, thanks to the gap Ashtner had shown us, we had time to get ready. Almost as soon as Fran finishes her preparations, I teleported her body.

From my teleport, Fran uses me to unleash the Sword King Technique - Heaven Judgement. If we don't count the self-destructive effects such as Sword God Transformation and Potential Release, this is probably the strongest blow we can unleash right now.

「――Heaven Judgement」

「Guu, Aaa……!」

The Marquis reacted to this as well, his crisis detection and his sword saint skill gave him an insight. In addition, he sensed the presence of a spatial magic through his presence detection. That's what we are aiming for.

Thanks to the fact that the Marquis had quickly slipped his pseudo fanatic sword between himself and me, I was able to attack the sword and the Marquis with a single blow.

I was swung out by Fran, who easily cut off the pseudo fanatic sword and instantly pierced through Marquis Ashtner's right shoulder and his left side. There was no response, as if I had sliced through a mass of air.

However, right after that, the tip of the pseudo fanatic sword that was broke from its middle fell. Then, a line was drawn on Marquis Ashtner's body, and black blood spurted out from it at once.

「Li-Little, Girl……」
