Bab 413: [413] Heavenly Demon against...

[Heavenly Demon POV]

Suddenly, just as I was about to end the challenger by piercing his neck, I was launched into the air.

The ground had risen and had taken me along with it. My sword had barely managed to enter the throat of the Challenger when this had happened. If only I was given one more second, my blade would have penetrated his neck, cut his throat, and killed him.

But then this happened. 

"Interesting."

I muttered, jumping on the ink-black blade now that I was in the air. This challenger is so interesting…Whenever I am of the opinion that I have driven him into a corner he comes in with another interesting technique.

This is… exhilarating.

Even the Sword Emperor was not able to excite me to such a degree…Even he failed.

[Did I not tell you? Someone will come.]

The voice of the Tower rang in my mind.

"Yes…"

I remained still in the sky and answered the tower.

[There is not only one.]

…?!
