The Legend of the Sword of Freedom
Sozo-ryoku

They were truly intimidated with just an aura. With that it can be concluded, if the two people were much stronger than the two of them. Alvitar and Ru tsung thought the same thing, which they saw was like the slaughter of the beasts and in their view, those two people were monsters stronger than the monsters themselves.

Alvitar and Ru tsung had only just seen a real fight against the beasts for the first time. Compared to those who were then facing Doggy Beasts it was nothing compared to what they saw now.

Alvitar analyzes how the fight happened, he focuses on observing with the aim of imitating the movements he sees.

'The way to fight that did not waste much wasted movement, all of his attacks hit the monster. He paid no heed to the monster attacks that led to him and focused on attacking the part that wanted to be attacked.'

'I know this is not their original technique, but just a basic technique. But the basic techniques they had alone were already extremely powerful so what about the original techniques they had?' thought Alvitar while analyzing the fight.

In the fight Alvitar also focused on the large sword used by one of the men. Because there was some kind of great negative energy from the sword that person was using.

*Trank ...

The man thrust his sword into the ground. He and his friend are done with the fight. However Ru tsung and Alvitar were quite astonished, as the beasts were only rendered unconscious despite some being cut off by the sword. But most of the beasts were still alive.

The killing aura that had previously spread changed rapidly and led to the two of them. That quite intense aura made Alvitar and Ru tsung difficult to catch their breath.

"Akhh .. My breath is tight, no. I have trouble breathing." whispered Ru tsung.

Alvitar silenced his own mouth so as not to make a sound. Because if they get caught there's a chance they'll be killed.

'I can't breathe properly, it's very tight, but I can't make much movement right now. They are dangerous people, if it is discovered me and Ru tsung will die.' thought Alvitar who kept trying not to make a sound.

But fate said otherwise, a hot bullet shot rapidly towards them and made a hollow of a tree. The attack did not hit them but Alvitar and Ru tsung were extremely frightened at the moment.

"Hoi ...how could there be a boy in the forest full of beasts like this."

A black-haired and brown-skinned man pointed his gun at them.

Ru tsung did not have the courage to move, as if her brain had stopped functioning.

While Alvitar, he did not know what to do and just remained silent without saying anything.

"Who are these two kids? why would he be in a forest like this, isn't this so awkward?"

The man with the big sword in his hand spoke to the friend beside him.

"Maybe they're just a slave that his master left here."

"Gwahahaha .. This is so funny, slaves are thrown into the forest. But be honest ..."

*Duack ...

The man kicked the head of Ru tsung who from earlier was just speechless.

Ru tsung bounced two meters away from where it was before. Alvitar who was beside him was quite surprised by that.

'What's that? I can't see his movements at all.' thought Alvitar while looking towards the fainted Ru tsung.

"I hate a child! especially weak slaves and cowards like him."

He pointed towards Ru tsung.

Alvitar got up right then and there, he forced himself with his trembling body.

'No matter how strong this guy is, I don't think of dying here.' Alvitar thought. He planted that thought in his brain.

"Ohh .. the brave boy. I see a fiery spirit in your eyes."

Alvitar did not care about the man's words, he only focused on one goal, which was to use all means so that he and Ru tsung would not die in a place like this.

Alvitar uses his Qi Energy. He was fully prepared in a fighting position.

"I have no intention of fighting with a child like him. You just fight with him. I'll go carry this beast." said a man with a gun in his hand.

He then took out a large sack from his pocket and put all the beasts lying in the sack. The man carried a lot of beasts with just a sack. That's a huge one. He carried all those beasts on his shoulders.

"Then I go first. Do what you want with the kid but you know what you're gonna do later in the afternoon?"

"Ah noisy, you're very disturbing the atmosphere go there."

The two men were talking to each other casually and seemed to ignore Alvitar's existence. Seeing the inaction Alvitar immediately moved quickly and launched his punch on the man's face.

However Alvitar's melee attack was able to be avoided by that fellow easily. Even without having to glance towards Alvitar in the slightest. And without Alvitar noticing, the man's right hand was already right in front of his face. Alvitar instantly bounced away with just a single strike.

*Plank ...

Urghb ...

'My face is like burning, it's very sore especially in the nose.' Alvitar thought, he held the bleeding that was in the nose using his hands.

"Sorry, I thought it was a fly, but it was you who tried to attack ya" said the man speaking plainly in front of Alvitar.

Alvitar rubbed the blood coming out of his nose and started preparing to enter the fight.

"The spirit that remains the same, the eyes that are burning and full of fighting spirit. Even though you're a slave I like your nature." he said.

The man then walked slowly towards Alvitar. Holding the large sword in his right hand, the man then proceeded to attack Alvitar's stomach using his sword.

Alvitar had already read the attack, he avoided it to a minimum in order not to attack it.

'Not too fast as before, the attack was slow. I can counterattack Alvitar thought while observing the situation to create a gap.

But that thought was immediately refuted as the man attacked Alvitar endlessly using his sword.

'The more I dodged his attack, the swing of his sword grew faster. It's really my limit to match his attack speed.'

Alvitar began to fall into a decision when he knew he was being played. There was a wall between the two of them that was very difficult to pass through. Alvitar was like seeing a huge rock blocking his journey.

Starting at this point, Alvitar was not thinking of defeating his opponent, he was just thinking of dodging all the attacks that were in front of him.

"Where's your spirit? light your fire once more and show me now!"

The man flipped his sword and attacked Alvitar with a blunt part.

*Buack ...

The attack hit Alvitar's rib cage. Fresh blood came out of Alvitar's mouth. The man did not hold back at all even though what he was facing was a child.

*euough ....

'All my body was throbbing in pain, my ribs were like crumbs hit by that sword.' Alvitar thought.

"I respect you as a slave boy who has fighting skills. Your martial arts are pretty good, but you picked the wrong opponent for you to face. Bet everything you've got and fight me again!"

Alvitar began to rise again forcing his body to move. Not because of the man's words but because of his own desire to survive.

Alvitar used his martial arts technique once again. He focused on bringing out all the abilities he possessed.

His current opponent was someone who used a weapon, Alvitar estimated the distance between himself and imagined the Man inside his head. alvitar's power is commonly referred to as Sozo-ryoku's ability to visualize any object seen and record it in his own memory.

It was a natural ability that Alvitar belonged to, only 1 out of so many people had this kind of ability.

Within the space of imagination that he created, Alvitar visualized the man and fought with him, all sorts of ways and techniques that Alvitar used nothing worked at all.

In the imaginary space that Alvitar created, he had already died 10 times with results, dying before making a move. In terms of strength, speed and endurance.

The man was far superior to Alvitar. There was no way to defeat that man at the current level of Alvitar.

A lot of sweat soaked Alvitar's face, although from earlier he was just silent but his brain was really working hard.

'Huh .. there were ten times I died in total, and it happened because of his extremely fast sword attack. A slash that I could not predict at all and a different move every time he made an attack. I can't beat this guy.' Alvitar thought as he continued to look towards the front.

"When you're silent, why do you look so exhausted?" said the man while pointing towards Alvitar.

"Ah, forget about it, if you just stay petrified like I'm going to attack first."

As the man charged forward, Alvitar watched with great focus as to which direction the person would attack. Alvitar reads every posture, and the movements performed by the man.

'The way he attacks, and how movement and speed he produces. It's exactly the same as it was. His attack warped the air.' thought Alvitar who sped up the processing of his mind.

The man changed the direction of his attack trajectory and moved and was right behind Alvitar.

'It's like it happened before.' thought Alvitar. He was waiting for this momentum. Alvitar uses his legs to deliver a surprise attack towards the back. While using his Qi energy. Alvitar uses martial arts techniques and is combined with small-scale magic attacks.

"Combat arts."

"Flower kick + Splitting wind."

Alvitar's quick kick leads right to the man's neck. Alvitar intends to directly kill the man with a surprise attack. This time Alvitar attack combines martial arts and wind magic, the effect of the attack is to be able to directly cut the target. Because Alvitar coated wind magic on his attack which was like implanting a knife in a blunt object.
