Chapter 1580: Sir Edward Lampard 2

"You did well."

Edward's magnetic voice fell, staring at Haru, who was right in front of him.

Unlike his appearance before, Edward had covered his entire body from head to toe with silver armor. In his hands, the massive two-handed sword had disappeared and it was changed into a huge shield and a huge metal lance.

"I never thought that you would have made me invoke the Ginrei Argusten."

"Hmm... I see you're a defense type, huh?" Haru stared at Edward curiously, wondering how powerful his defense was.

"Haha... in this state, I am invincible! No one can defeat me in this state!"

Edward was, after all, a proud man, and it was normal to be proud since he was one of S Rank Saviors. He also believed that among all the Saviors in this world, he had the strongest defense, however, he also knew that the young man in front of him, might have the strongest dodging ability.

"Still, you can't defeat me either since your speed is too slow," Haru said easily, playing around with the knife in his hand.

"....."

Edward was speechless, but...

"Let's see whether you can say something like that again after this!"

When Haru thought that Edward's speed would decrease when Edward wore this armor, it seemed that he was wrong since it seemed Edward became even faster.

*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*

Edward sent out a triple thrust using his lance toward Haru, but all of that was dodged easily.

*BOOOM!* *BOOOM!* *BOOOM!*

However, the force of Edward's lance caused the water on the sea to explode several times, causing a drizzle on this sunny day.

Jeanne, Shizuno, Satsuki, Maya, and Angela didn't say anything since they were afraid to miss the scene in front of them, but one thing for sure, they knew very well that Haru had the power of S Rank Savior, after they saw his match against Edward.

"Stop running away and try to defeat me!"

Edward decided to give up and stood in his place. He was really speechless at Haru's ability at running away since it was too top-notch and he believed that no one was able to match him at running away.

It might be his intuition, but Edward thought that Haru might have an ability to foresight all of his attacks so Haru could dodge all of his attacks beforehand which made him very helpless.

Edward knew that with speed, he might not be able to match Haru, but what about defense?

Edward believed that he had the strongest defense among all the Saviors in this world and he didn't think that Haru's attack could break his shield and armor, even though Haru was able to manipulate vibration.

"Then it's time for me to attack, don't chicken away," Haru said.

"Hmph! Your mouth is so big! Your attack is only a tickle for me!" Edward snorted since Haru's ability at provoking was too top-notch too, right?

In truth, Haru was also curious about Edward's defense and wondered how powerful his defense was. He, who was standing 10 meters away from Edward, then spun his knife like a drill then shot it out toward Edward.

"One Blade: Drill Cut!"

*Swoosh!*

Haru thrust his knife and generated a drill of vibration toward Edward.

Edward quickly raised his shield and blocked this attack.

*Chirp!*

Edward's expression started to change, especially when this drill of vibration was about to pierce his shield. He then quickly controlled his prana and created a compressed space to block this attack, but the force of this attack caused him to be pushed away a hundred meters away which made him speechless.

Edward sighed in relief and at the same time, he felt a sense of thrill that he had never felt before. His blood was boiling and he was full of excitement.

"Come on! Show me your strongest attack! Send me more, Haru!"

Edward called out Haru's name directly, showing his expectation toward him since he had always wanted to meet someone who was able to destroy his defense!

"Then let's see whether you can stop this."

Haru leaped into the air then swung his knife at a very fast speed.

"Dicing Cut!"

Haru sent out powerful blades of air that were made from the combination of compressed air and high-frequency vibration.

*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*

Staring at a thousand, no, tens of thousands of powerful blades of air, Edward laughed very hard, raising his shield to block this attack.

*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

The shield was hit by powerful blades of air several times, but all of that turned useless and it was unable to penetrate its defense.

"Hahaha, it's useless! Useless, useless! I'm invincible!"

Even though Edward could feel his prana draining at a very fast speed, it was still enough to support him to fight for an hour or so and he wasn't going to lose so easily!

Haru kept swinging his knife, but he had to admit that Edward's defense was very strong, and Edward's stamina was also quite ridiculous. He felt that it was a waste of time to send out this attack toward Edward again.

In truth, Haru could destroy Edward's defense easily, but he was afraid that he might cause a chain of earthquakes on Japan and caused a hundred of billions of losses for the country so that was why he was holding back, but his patience was also limited and he thought to use that technique to defeat Edward.

---

On the other hand, the audience of this fight felt that this wasn't a fight between humans anymore and they also realized how fearful the power of S Rank Savior was, especially Angela, who thought that Haru was only a perverted brat that was slightly handsome, but it seemed that this guy was also very powerful!

'Edward-sama...'

Angela wasn't sure, but she felt very worried at that moment.

---

"Haru, is this all of your tricks? If so then, you can't defeat me! I am invincible!" Edward shouted loudly.

"The defense of your armor and shield is very powerful, but what about your inside?" Haru suddenly said.

"Huh? Inside?"

When Edward was confused, he was dumbfounded when he suddenly saw Haru, who was right in front of him and it seemed that he really underestimated Haru's speed.

Haru channeled a vibration through his fist, increasing the destructive power of his fist, then without hesitation, he punched his fist toward Edward's stomach.

"Beat Punch!"

*BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!*

Edward focused prana at just a single point instead of his body as a whole, blocking Haru's fist, but...

"ARGGHHH!!!!"

Haru's fist destroyed Edward's prana and armor!

Edward, who was being punched, felt his innards were being wrecked apart and he was blown away several hundred meters, directly passed away with a lot of blood on his mouth and ears, showing how massive the damage on his body was.

"......."

No one was sure how to describe their feelings at the time, but one thing was for sure, they knew that Edward had lost against Haru.

"EDWARD-SAMA!!!" Angela was full of worry.

Haru then quickly chased after Edward and when he caught him, he quickly rewound the time so all the damages that he had caused before on Edward would disappear and Edward's state returned to its peak again. He felt that he might have done a bit too much before so he felt a bit sorry for Edward.

"Cough!"

Edward coughed up blood and felt a bit dizzy, but then, his body felt better again. He looked at the young man who had beaten him up that he almost died before then healed him to his peak state again with complicated gaze since he knew very well the result of this duel.

"...I lost?"

"Yes, you lost."

Haru nodded and said, "So will you help me to become S Rank Savior?"

Edward stared at Haru for a while, then nodded gently, before he complained that his body was hurt, telling him to heal him again, however, even though it was only a millisecond, Haru could see Edward's reaction was a bit weird.

'This guy... didn't swing that way, right?'
