My eyes zoomed in to the far distance, at the crash site. I could see Marva in the midst of some monsters mashed body. Even as her body lay on the ground, I could see the slight twitch of her face as she smiled and said those words.
"Haha… that woman… she deserves to be ranked higher than rank 7."
I looked down at my stomach and see the small hole that her sword had stabbed through. Except now, the sword was gone from my stomach and the wound was slowly healing to the naked eye.
Her hands were still clutching tightly on to her sword when I punched her. That's why when she flew away, the sword also went with her.
Marva slowly got up to a knee bending position. Attempting further caused her to vomit out large amounts of blood. She coughed for a few seconds before she wiped her mouth of the blood.
Marva looked down at the big black spot in her stomach where the punch landed.
"Damn it, that hurts!"
"Just what was that… it felt like a cannon ball hit me." Saying that she coughed once more before looking ahead, at the place where I stood.
Suddenly her smile widened, it widened to a creepy degree as she laughed, "That was a funny punch, hehe."
The ring on her index finger glowed white as a light from the heavens fell upon her. The light seemed to be harmless, almost pale as nothing.
As the light descended upon her body, Marva sighed in relief. The pain in her body slowly subsided as the large wound also healed itself. With that, other wounds that she got while descending also healed quickly.
"Just give me a sec."
"Hah… forgot she could use that power." I said, looking upon the huge ray of light that descended upon Marva.
The light itself was a holy power. The Light Sigmat's have a few special attributes to itself. The most common ones were the ability to heal and to punish dark creatures. But those that have trained the power and can control it to an elite degree could also use other special abilities.
Speed, False Vision, Long range attacks and a few more.
Marva had already used the elite speed ability when she took Avis from me and now she showed an elite degree of healing power. One that could quickly heal dangerous wounds to how they were before.
It was a dangerous ability, one that gained her tremendous reputation on the battlefield. Still… it wasn't that what she was truly known for.
The light on the sky slowly faded away and in a moment, flickers of light sparked in front of me and Marva's figure appeared.
I looked at her slender figure which now had zero wounds. Her standing there with a dangerous smile on her face. It seemed as if she had lost her composure and turned into a bloody dog.
The murderous intent that oozed from her, made the skins of Avis and the other examiner freeze in fear. It was commendable sure… but when you gaze upon the ever approaching aura of a goddess… such bloody intent feels nothing to one like me.
"Hey!" She said while in her crazy mode, "How about we change the battle rules?"
"The new rule is that… there is no rule." Her eyes bloodshot, "We will fight to our hearts content until one of us dies."
"Okay… but what's the wager?" I asked. She may be crazy but I had regained my composure.
"Wager?... alright then, If I win, you die and if you win then, you can do whatever you want with me."
'Hmm… that is a double edged wager. Anyone with a brain would reject her. She's not just anybody but someone who's been granted the title of Valkyrie. Her real strength is something else.'
'But I'm not just anyone now, am I?'
"Sure, we'll do just that." I said and letting loose of my sword from the back and holding it.
Her eyes widened in excitement, "Woah! That's a real sword! I thought that was for renovation… which means…" Her eyes widened again, "You still haven't shown me your full power."
"Well, I'm ready now so… whenever you want."
Marva got ready to strike but the other examiner interrupted, "Hey… We're still here, you know."
Marva looked at the two of them and felt annoyed. She screamed at them, "Get lost!" Her vocal enhanced by her newfound blood-lust, felt like War-hammer to the two examiners.
The other examiner took Avis by the shoulder before running away with him in tow.
We waited until we were sure that both the idiots were gone from the vicinity of combat. So right when they had left enough distance, both of us moved at once.
Marva's speed blitzed towards me in blinding speed. Her sword aimed towards my head ready to stab. But I used my sword to move hers just the right distance. Enough for hers to miss my head by an inch.
Without stop, I turned my sword and went for her neck. But before my sword could reach her neck, she vanished from her spot.
I looked around but couldn't find her anywhere. Then instantly, she appeared right in front of me, her sword ready to stab at my chest.
The Valkyrie known as Blitz.
I already knew where she would attack, I had already sensed it. So when her attack came so did my sword stand in guard, stopping her attack right there.
But just like her name, her attack too came in fast rapid attacks. Stabbing here and stabbing there. Each time her stab came, my sword stood there too, stopping hers from going forward.
My sword wasn't just big in as length but its width too was impressively big and very sturdy. Even as Marva's stabs hit it and caused sparks, no damage seemed to appear on the sword. The rightful source is novｅlfire.net
Then right when my eyes saw the weakness in her movement, my sword moved. It threw up her sword, momentarily opening her defense. Then in a surprisingly fast move, my sword rounded back from the sky before slashing her midsection.
Marva seeing that used her speed to move out of the attack but still it wasn't enough. My sword slashed a huge space of her stomach, chunking off a big place.
Marva immediately backed away a lot and looked down to see a huge cut on her stomach that bled heavily. But that didn't make her worry at all.
She smiled at me as another light fell from the heaven's quickly healing her, "That was quite the cut… if I didn't move fast enough you could have killed me."
"Well… that was the plan."
Marva glanced down at my heavy sword, "I didn't think you could actually move so fast… but if I'm right then, you can only do that a few times, right?"
I nodded, no need to hide the fact from this monster, "Yes, but do you really have time to squander?"
"Huh?" She didn't understand before she saw my large figure appearing right before her view and slashing at her, which she narrowly avoided.
"I only need a few times to cut that pretty head of yours."
