Reinhard's sword...
Seemed as if it would split the entire sky and earth in two.
In this world...
Those who could withstand this sword could be counted on one hand.
But...
Facing this sword...
Ayato's gaze was neither sad nor happy.
He simply clenched his fist and punched out.
The surface of his fist burst forth with heart-palpitating Cursed Energy, spreading like raging waves.
Boom!
Amidst the earth-shaking roar.
Reinhard's slashing attack had already frozen in mid-air, encountering the impact of an earth-shattering force.
For a moment...
The entire sky and earth were already surging with wind and clouds.
Dark clouds densely covered the vast sky, as if a natural disaster had descended.
The air in all directions visibly rippled and rolled outward.
At this moment!
Sky and earth seemed to be divided into two worlds.
On one side, slashing attacks tore through everything, constantly cutting the void.
On the other side, vast and brilliant Cursed Energy could crush everything.
Reinhard and Ayato.
If one was the beloved son of the world...
Then the other was a Devil from beyond the realm.
Even an ordinary battle of gods could not compare to this.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Amidst the sounds of air explosions...
Reinhard's slashing attacks and Ayato's Cursed Energy had fallen into a deadlock.
Both sides continuously unleashed their power.
As if trying to make the entire sky and earth overturn.
As if they would physically beat this world to pieces.
No one knew how long passed.
The slashing attacks and the Cursed Energy finally collapsed simultaneously.
Rumble!
A gigantic mushroom cloud shot into the sky.
A vast and mighty shockwave, carrying dust and smoke, surged in all directions.
Wherever it passed...
The earth was instantly crushed, countless flowers and trees uprooted.
The entire Servant Headquarters shone brightly, the power of the Word Magic barrier withstanding the continuous impacts.
"..." xN
Watching this scene...
Everyone in Elsa's group was shaken to their core.
At this moment!
The top experts in their memory were nothing but farts in comparison to this battle.
Puck sighed, "Now I believe that just two slashes could kill me."
And probably even that...
Was the other showing mercy.
At that moment.
Ayato and Reinhard had already moved simultaneously.
Boom!
The next instant!
Deafening roars merged into one, as the figures of Reinhard and Ayato flickered repeatedly in the air.
Each time they appeared...
The earth would be torn apart.
Reinhard's sword speed grew faster and faster, the power he swung stronger and stronger.
He had the Blessing of the Sword Saint.
Allowing him to cut even that which could not be cut.
With each swing of his sword, he would cut through the earth, tear the sky.
As if...
There was nothing in the world he could not cut.
But!
Ayato only punched.
Putting aside his own special physique, after seizing the Authority of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven...
He already had an indestructible body.
Even without Cursed Energy reinforcement, his fists could not be harmed by ordinary things.
The battle continued.
In just a few dozen seconds...
No one knew how many times they had collided.
Reinhard swung his sword in all directions, the Dragon Sword in his hand trailing golden light. He said excitedly, "I didn't expect you to be this powerful?"
The battle between the two briefly presented a scene of mutual stalemate.
Only everything around them was turned upside down.
Reinhard continuously changed his techniques.
The fighting spirit in his eyes was already tangible.
As the veritable strongest in the world...
Even without Blessings, given time...
There were very few in this world who could stand against him.
After receiving Blessings...
Those who could even withstand a few of his swords could be counted on one hand.
Along with unimaginable strength...
Came deep loneliness.
And now!
He had finally met a good opponent.
On the other side!
Ayato turned and shifted, using countless techniques and means to deflect the power of the Dragon Sword one by one.
[Origin: 1001]
[Origin: 1112]
[Origin: 1521]
Looking at the continuously appearing text information, Ayato's eyes flickered slightly.
To be honest!
After truly fighting Reinhard...
The other's strength was much greater than he had expected.
He should say...
As expected of the world's beloved son.
Even...
During the battle, he had already noticed that blessings were still being generated on the other's body, supplementing his shortcomings.
Every time he clashed with him, he could feel it.
There were subtle differences in Reinhard's sword.
The other...
Was constantly getting stronger at all times.
This was truly cheating right in front of him!
But even so...
Ayato was happy to see it.
Every time the other displayed a blessing, it produced a considerable number of Origin points for him.
And he also wanted to see...
How high a world would exert its utmost to raise the strength of its beloved son.
