The monster wasn't threatened by Sylvianna. After all, it knew many secrets of the family that not many people were aware of. Not just that, it fought a few Blackmauves in the past thus it was more or less familiar with how they fight.
Jin Rou smirked when he saw the confident expression of the monster. He wasn't planning to intervene in this thus he created a throne and sat there to watch the fun.
This might be the first time that Sylvianna would fight seriously. After all, her power in Mortalis wasn't restricted unlike the Nine Heavens and Thousand Realms.
"Come, let me see how powerful you are." The monster shouted. It was filled with glee as it looked at Sylvianna with anticipation, "Before I eat you, show me something splendid!"
Sylvianna dashed towards the monster and slashed her black sword. Her slash released thousands of black energy lines.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" The black energy lines attacked the monster with a speed comparable to light. The latter evaded the attacks by swinging its arms and the sea water acted as its shield.
Sylvianna gripped her sword tightly and braced herself for another attack.
"Bang!" This time, the slash was stronger as it contained her dao. The black sword glowed as it manifested another set of black swords behind her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Don't get killed to easily." Sylvianna was like a total different person this time. Her prowess was getting off the charts as she attacked and attacked.
The other five black swords acted as her additional fists and kicks, dealing damage to the enemy. Since the monster was binded by chains, its movements were limited to a little space. If not for its total manipulation of the sea, it would have suffered intense injuries by now.
"This is exciting, Blackmauve!" Instead of getting overwhelmed, the monster felt excited rather, "It's been a while since I feel someone comparable to Winter Progenitor. This is getting me hyped up!"
Sylvianna kept the offense while the monster was on the defense. She was not giving it any chances of retaliation. Soon, she decided to target its limbs to limit it more from moving.
However, before she could put it into action, the monster suddenly broke one of its chains and landed a punch on her chest.
"Boom!" Fortunately, she managed to use her swords to protect her from that attack. If not, she would be gravely injured by now.
"A decent reaction." The monster smirked, "As expected of a Blackmauve, you are a work of art. Your entire family was a work of art that I, Gleipnir, am fascinated with until now."
"Gleipnir..." Sylvianna felt the name to be familiar. But for some reason, she couldn't pinpoint and recall it.
Soon, Gleipnir broke all the chains binding him.
Jin Rou creased his brows. It turned out that he could break the chains anytime. It just acted like it couldn't to mirror a lie. But the question was, to whom? Or what for? In any case, he couldn't interfere with the fight. He promised Sylvianna that no matter what, he wouldn't intervene.
"These chains of Winter Progenitor have weakened over time by applying some curses. She was strong, but not enough to kill me." Gleipnir scoffed as it slowly massaged its wrists, "Being binded for long is tiring."
"Whoosh!" Sylvianna attacked once again. She didn't waste time as she used all her swords for offense. Five swords created sword arcs as they slashed their way towards Gleipnir.
Gleipnir smirked and punched the sword arcs breaking them into pieces, "Show me more other than these tricks. It won't work on me, you should know be aware of that by now."
Sylvianna charged a sword thrust towards the monster with her eyes turning red. Her pupil turned into a crow-like figure with a sharp glow.
"Yes, that Red Crow Eyes!" Gleipnir was getting more exciting, "That eyes that we have been wanting to get our hands on!"
"Wishful thinking." Sylvianna sneered and thrusted the sword towards the enemy's chest. There was no hesitation in her eyes as she targeted that vital part.
But, how could Gleipnir let her just stab it to the heart? It stopped the thrust by holding the sharp edge of the sword. It bled a little but it didn't affect it in the slightest.
"You are the sole heir of Blackmauve and the most talented one at that." Gleipnir said. His expression was of one in disappointment, "But this is all you can do?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Do you really think so?" Sylvianna was still composed as if it was part of her calculations. Soon, the edge of the sword created a small black energy and turned into a laser-like beam.
Since it's in a pointblank range, Gleipnir was destined to be hit by that.
For the first time, Gleipnir changed its expression and wanted to change the direction of the edge. Unfortunately, the laser was faster than it, piercing through its heart.
"Uhh!" Blood oozed from the small wound as Gleipnir almost vomited bad blood. That move was unexpected for it. After all, Gleipnir had eyes that could estimate the movements of the other party.
However, it forgot how power Red Crow Eyes of Blackmauve was. How could its mere estimating eyes fight against the Red Crow?
"That wound is not enough to kill you. But you should know now that I can take your life anytime." Sylvianna established her dominance against the enemy, "Just because you fought my relatives doesn't mean you can outwit someone of a royal blood like me."
"How venemous those words are." Gleipnir calmed its heartbeat and said, "Do you really think this is over?"
"So you won't talk yet?" Sylvianna raised her sword. She didn't mind instilling the emotion called fear in this monster's core.
"I told you, right? Make me." Gleipnir stood up like the wound was nothing, "If you can't do that, you aren't worthy to know anything, much less be in front of me."
"Then let's see if you will keep up your words when you realize your whole body impaled to the ground helpless like a chicken." Sylvianna snorted as she prepared for her attack.
