Reinhard looked at Felt and said, "Then, what is your opinion, Princess?"
His tone was very serious and grave.
Compared to his previous friendliness, it had completely changed.
Felt grabbed Ayato's shoulder and glared at him. "My master's will is my will."
M-M-Master?
What kind of address was that?
Reinhard fell into silence.
But soon, a look of determination appeared in his eyes.
Reinhard said seriously, "Although it may be rude, I refuse your answer."
"Heh... hehe."
Felt twitched her mouth.
If that's the case...
Why did you ask my opinion?
This guy is really annoying.
However...
She felt secretly fortunate.
If she hadn't met her master and this guy had found her, who knows what would have happened.
"Does that mean you're ready to fight?"
Ayato looked at Reinhard with a faint smile. "So, are you prepared to die?"
"Although it may sound arrogant..."
Reinhard lowered his eyes and said calmly, "I do not believe anyone could be my opponent."
Ayato didn't reply, only looking at him with an indifferent and deep gaze.
Hum hum hum hum!
And at that moment, a change occurred.
The long sword at Reinhard's waist began to crazily tremble.
It was an exceptionally ornate knight's sword.
It seemed to be expressing its own will.
This was the Dragon Sword.
One of the most famous divine swords in the entire world.
Besides having its own will, the Dragon Sword could maximally enhance the Blessing of the sword.
Legend has it...
The first-generation Sword Saint used it to defeat the Divine Dragon.
It was the strongest and most special weapon in this world.
"Oh?"
Ayato raised an eyebrow, and his aura suddenly changed.
Clang!
The next instant!
The Dragon Sword was drawn.
An astounding sword light shot straight into the clouds, as if it would split sky and earth in two.
"The Dragon Sword is not only trembling, but even actively drawing itself?"
Reinhard said in surprise, "This is the first time this has happened since I acquired the Dragon Sword."
As a divine sword with its own consciousness...
The Dragon Sword only reacted when facing a truly strong opponent.
But over the years...
Those who made the Dragon Sword react could be counted on one hand.
And to make it actively draw itself...
Was unheard of and unseen.
After all...
If the Dragon Sword was unwilling, not even Reinhard could pull it from its sheath.
"This has become interesting."
Reinhard smiled. "It seems, for both public and private reasons, I have to fight you."
The moment his voice fell, a terrifying to the extreme aura shot straight into the sky.
This was Reinhard.
The strongest in the world.
No!
With the aura he emitted, he is perhaps the strongest Sword Saint in history.
He stepped forward, slowly walking towards Ayato.
With each step he took, the aura on his body climbed one level.
By the time he truly stopped, his aura had climbed to its peak.
Directly splitting the dense white clouds in the sky in two.
This terrifying aura...
Made cold sweat break out on the foreheads of Elsa and the others.
Although the aura was not directed at them...
Each of them felt a sense of horror.
In a trance...
It was as if they had been cut in two.
Watching Reinhard getting closer, Ayato didn't speak, only glanced at Elsa and the others.
Seeing this, Elsa and the others immediately understood and quickly retreated back into the mansion.
"Wind, heed my command, guard this mansion."
A melodious voice echoed from Ayato's mouth.
The violent winds between sky and earth had completely surrounded the entire Servant Headquarters.
Countless hurricanes swirled, as if transforming into a tangible barrier.
"What kind of power is this?"
Reinhard frowned.
With just words...
He had created such a barrier.
It was truly unheard of.
"You don't need to know so clearly."
Ayato beckoned with his finger and smiled. "Before facing that certain Bald Demon King..."
"Having you as an appetizer is also a good choice."
Although he didn't know how strong Reinhard was...
He was very certain.
The other was absolutely no match for that Bald Demon King.
The gap in their auras was far too great.
"It seems I am quite underestimated."
Reinhard drew the Dragon Sword, a dazzling cold light flickering in the air.
"In that case, let the battle begin directly."
As the sound waves echoed...
The Dragon Sword had already swung out.
The blade edge burst forth with a chilling sharpness, as if it could cut through everything.
Under this sword...
The earth was split in two, revealing a terrifying, bottomless abyss.
