บท 105: Driven to the Brink

----

Due to the looming battle, Kieran's adrenaline began pumping, which by effect, made it feel as if time had slowed down.

Now that Kieran gave Crimson Ashrune another glance, he realized that although the weapon was extremely heavy, the weight distribution was spectacular. While it was classified as a greatsword, Crimson Ashrune's shape was oddly similar to a longsword. 

In fact, the design seemed to be inspired by zweihanders, a foreign-style doublehanded weapon. As part of the archaic cloth fell down, it exposed a ruby in the center of the weapon's guard that was partly modeled after Agrianos' silver blade.

"You'll be my partner, correct? Then we shall walk into battle and forge our path forward," Kieran murmured while gazing at Crimson Ashrune. It was faint, but the ruby seemed to glimmer with a demonic intent that dissipated as fast as it appeared.
