Chapter 90 - Sword Master

AN: Hello, everyone. Before we start, I just wanna say that, yes this is a lame fight. I'll try to edit it someday.

Anyway, I hope you all can still enjoy it.

______________

Nathan and the Golem rushed towards each other with fast speed!

'It's fast!'

Seeing the speed of the golem, Nathan's eyes contracted!

Golems are beings that are more known for their defense than anything else.

Since they are made out of either stones or other metal, they are quite slow but durable making them an ideal tank.

And this Stone–Mithril Golem, while specializing in defense, is still able to have speed that is on par with Nathan's!

Soon, they arrived right in front of each other and threw a punch at the same time.

*BOOM!*

It was as if a bomb was detonated with the sound of the two's collision.

'Damn it!'

Nathan felt the difference in power between him and the golem. To not get injured here, he decided to move back first.

He kicked the golem and with that force, he jumped back a few meters away from the golem.

Frowning, Nathan said, "Looks like defeating this golem and completing the mission won't be an easy feat to do, huh."

After that, the two continued to have small clashes here and there with mostly Nathan the one attacking while the golem just stood there, defending.

Soon, Nathan started to get exhausted as time went by.

"Haa… Haa .. Haa…"

Staring at the unmoving golem, Nathan's head was running at a fast rate, thinking of what he should do to defeat this block of rocks.

Nathan knows that if this continues, soon he will be defeated.

At this time, out of the corner of his eyes, something shiny attracted Nathan's gaze.

When he saw what it was, his eyes lit up and immediately thought of what he should do next!

Turning his focus back into the Golem, Nathan calculated his distance from the golem as well as the item he just saw.

After he was done, Nathan readied himself, taking a deep breath, bent his knees then launched himself in the direction of the item!

Seeing Nathan make a move, the golem, who's been keeping an eye on him, rushed towards him.

In just a blink of an eye, Nathan arrived near the item he's been looking at.

At the same time, the golem was also already just a meter away from him.

Before Nathan even reacted, it punched him with it's rocky arms.

He was not able to defend himself and his body flew before landing 8 meters away.

Standing up, Nathan looked battered at this time.

His clothes have become rags, there's blood dripping down his head, and ragged breathing.

Anyone who sees this will immediately get scared by his appearance.

Just by looking at this, it is already obvious who's the winner.

But at this time, Nathan's eyes still showed a different light.

There was excitement in it!

Nathan suddenly chuckled, "Haha, I have almost forgotten the excitement of being able to fight powerful people.

He looked directly into the golem's eyes and continued, "I'm glad that you made me remember the feeling that I've lost all this time."

At this time, Nathan has remembered the thing that he always looked for in his past life.

The Joy of Fighting!

At the same time, Nathan raised his hand and he was holding something in his hand.

It was a black sword made of unknown metal.

Nathan doesn't have the leisure to use appraisal on it under his current situation.

This was the item that made Nathan do what he just did a few moments ago.

When he accidentally laid his eyes on it earlier, Nathan immediately thought of a way to turn his situation around.

With a sword, Nathan can use his talent that he hasn't been able to use that much.

1st Effect - Omnipotent!

Holding onto the sword, Nathan willed himself to become a swordsman and almost instantly, a flood of information rushed towards his head.

He also felt changes happening into his body. He has become more flexible, his strength has become more compact, and calluses appeared on his hands.

Nathan's eyes that were looking at the golem the whole time suddenly sharpened!

At this time, Nathan has turned into a true sword master!

The Stone–Mithril Golem felt the changes that occurred to Nathan.

For some reason, it started to feel some threat coming out from the previously 'harmless' human in front of it.

As it was looking intently at Nathan, it's eyes suddenly glowed with red light and it disappeared from where it was standing.

The next second, it appeared a few meters behind Nathan holding a huge rock that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

It threw the huge rock at Nathan with ease.

But unlike before, Nathan was already prepared for any attack that was about to come.

Without even the need to turn around, he already felt what was happening behind him.

Readying himself, he holds the sword as if it's an extension of his body, he closes his eyes, takes a deep breath and calms down his surging emotions.

A few moments later, Nathan slashed his sword, doing a 360 rotation.

*Shhing!*

Then, the rock that was heading towards him suddenly cracked and after a couple more seconds, it suddenly split into two!

Without pause, Nathan did another vertical slash in front of him where the golem suddenly appeared.

*Clang!*

The sound of metal hitting metal sounded and Nathan successfully deflected the attack, causing the golem to move a few steps back.

He opened his eyes and looked at the golem, squinting.

Nathan smirked, "Heh, I have already confirmed that you're no match for me now."

"It is now time to end this farce." He said,

Saying that, Nathan gathered all the strength that he could master and poured it into the sword in his hand.

Then he slashed at the golem with all he got!

"HAAAAAAARRAAAAA!!!!!"

….

Nathan entered his space in a bloody state.

The location where he appeared was just right beside the lake.

When he got there, his body just collapsed as everything syncs in.

"Brother!"

""Master!""

Natalie and the Tree Spirits' voices sounded at this time.
