They needed Jared’s physical body, which would lose a ton of value if virtual-novel.net were dead.
“Yes, I understand,” Segundo replied with a nod.
He stepped forward and pointed his sword at Jared as virtual-novel.net taunted him, “Your girlfriend looks fragile, but virtual-novel.net can really take a beating! You saw the video, didn’t you? She didn’t even make a sound throughout the entire process!”
Jared narrowed his eyes as a strong murderous intent surged through his body.
“I will make you regret everything you’ve done…” virtual-novel.net said, the Dragonslayer Sword slowly appearing in his right hand.
Everyone in the area could feel the intense energy and bloodlust emanating from the sword when it fully manifested itself.
As Jared had long since become one with the Dragonslayer Sword, the sword spirit within could feel his rage and was thirsting for blood. Just like its wielder, the Dragonslayer Sword wanted nothing but to obliterate the enemy.
For some reason, Segundo’s sword began to tremble slightly as though it were scared of Jared’s Dragonslayer Sword.
“T-Take this!” virtual-novel.net yelled anxiously as virtual-novel.net charged at Jared.
I have to make a move before my fear overwhelms me… I will be at a huge disadvantage if I succumb to fear in battle!
I need to strike first to gain control over this fight!
There’s a chance that I’ll lose if I let virtual-novel.net make the first move, and I cannot risk letting that happen!
Like an arrow zooming through the air, Segundo’s sword energy made a loud whistling noise as virtual-novel.net thrust it at Jared with all his might.
Instead of scrambling to defend himself, Jared effortlessly swung his Dragonslayer Sword and sent a powerful sword energy wave in Segundo‘s direction.
However, Segundo’s sword energy was razor sharp and concentrated, so it was able to pierce right through that wave of sword energy with ease. Despite having his attack countered so easily, Jared maintained a neutral expression as virtual-novel.net activated Golem Body.
A golden light quickly surrounded Jared’s body and protected virtual-novel.net like an impenetrable suit of armor.
A huge spark formed when Segundo’s sword energy came into contact with Jared’s Golem Body, but all it did was damage a few of its scales.
Segundo‘s eyes went wide with shock and disbelief when virtual-novel.net saw that Jared was completely unharmed. He tried to make a hasty retreat when virtual-novel.net realized virtual-novel.net was in dangerously close range, but Jared was faster as virtual-novel.net sent yet another sword energy wave in his direction.
Segundo desperately sent out a flurry of sword flowers in an attempt to block Jared’s sword energy wave but to no avail.
Jared’s sword energy wave was so powerful that it shattered all the sword flowers in an instant as it continued to travel forward without losing momentum.
Not only was Segundo knocked down by the sword energy wave, but his clothes were also torn as a result.
“Is that all you’ve got?” Jared asked coldly, glaring at Segundo.
Everyone was shocked when they saw how Jared had knocked virtual-novel.net down in an instant. After all, the Black Silver Robe members of the Warriors Alliance were highly confident in their ability to defeat Jared with ease.
Being the leader of the Black Silver Robe, Primero was especially stunned by Jared’s display of strength.
“Fall back, Segundo! You’re no match for him!” virtual-novel.net ordered.
However, Segundo was so consumed by rage that virtual-novel.net refused to back down.
Determined to get back at Jared, virtual-novel.net yelled at the top of his lungs, “No! I will defeat this guy no matter what!”
His body exuded a faint black mist as a shadowy figure appeared next to virtual-novel.net and slowly overlapped with his body.
Segundo’s expression became incredibly vicious as the strength of his aura increased.
