Chapter 42 [Bonus ] Battle Of Promise Part 6

Bang!

The massive sword slash collided against the Bone Pyramid. The power of that sword slash broke the bones and slowly pierced through the pyramid.

Crack! Crack!

Kim's eyes fell on his pyramid. At this moment, he knew this pyramid won't be able to block the slash.

He clenched his fist and released the bone spear. But, instead of directly attacking it.

He used Heretic Evil Seed.

It stored the power of Lightning and Flames when his previous abilities disintegrated. Just like how Perfect Martial Body stored the previous Innate Body Abilities.

He covered his spear with flame and lightning. The lightning rumbled at the shaft while the tip was covered in flames.

Bang!

The sword slash broke the pyramid completely and slashed it in half. The bones crumbled and disintegrated into dust but the slash continued to move toward him.

Kim took a deep breath and held the spear with both of his hands. The next moment, he pushed the spear with his left hand. His speed intensified as the tip got closer to the slash.

[One Strike- Dragon Death Strike]

Bang!

His spear pierced the sword slash from the middle. It blasted into pieces but the bone spear also got cracked and turned to dust.

The immense impact from the collision pushed Kim away.

Whoosh!

At this moment, Kiro suddenly appeared in front of him. He didn't attack. This time, he looked at Kim and asked.

"Although I am going to kill you, I will give you a swift death if you answer my question."

"How did you find my previous attack?"

He was talking about the thrust from the back. If Kim hadn't noticed it, the sword would've pierced his bone helmet and his head.

But, it should be impossible to notice it. After all, he moved too fast.

"Three Seconds stop and ten seconds stop."

Kim opened his mouth and continued "The time duration between each of your attacks was three seconds. But that was only for normal attacks."

"For your front and back attack, you took ten seconds gap. Of course, if you hadn't attacked me from the front during the first time, I wouldn't have noticed it."

"I might not have the Eyes that can copy techniques or create illusions or summon the armor of god but these eyes were trained for thousands of hours to find errors during coding."

"Compared to that, your movement is much easier to find."

Kim wasn't lying. He wasn't using the Emperor Eyes and even if he was, it wouldn't allow him to find other's errors.

The only reason why he was good at it was due to his observation. He had to spend thousands of hours coding and while doing so, he got good at finding errors as well.

So, he used this method to find the time duration of his attacks and also the power of his Aura Cloak. Only by doing so, he was able to increase the output of his attacks by increasing the sharpness and number of spikes.

Kiro didn't care about Kim insulting him. So, he immediately asked.

"Is that so? Then, how did you awaken your Battle Soul without even engaging in battle for a long time?"

"Isn't that simple? I just awakened it." Kim looked at him with a confused expression and asked.

But hearing his words, Kiro's expression turned black and blue. He was scolding Kim in his heart.

The anger burst out and he instantly decided to chop Kim into pieces.

Without any hesitation, he rushed forward. His body disappeared and appeared next to him.

Kim quickly summoned the bone armor around him but the sword slashed even faster.

Splash!

Kim found his arm being chopped off. The power of the slash was so strong that his bones couldn't even hold it.

"Damn it!"

[Bone Spike Prison]

The next moment, his body released a massive amount of internal energy and condensed a ball of bones. The outside was covered with sharp spikes that could even tear Kiro's Aura Cloak.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!"

'This is not good. I am losing my strength. Due to awakening, I managed to gain some chance to battle against him but the difference is still too huge.'

'Damn it! Is there no way to overcome this? Am I destined to die here?'

Kim was unwilling to give up that easily. But, his stamina and spiritual power were slowly depleting. It had already reached its limit.

Now, he felt like he would pass out any time soon.

That's why Kim was scared. He was more scared of breaking the promise than dying.

'Damn it! Till my last breath, I can't give up. I must fight. I must survive.'

The flames that were slowly dying in his eyes once again flared up. He clenched his fist and the next moment, two blades appeared on his hand.

Even if he consumed his lifespan, he must survive.

Crack! Bang!

At this moment, a powerful sword strike broke the bone prison.

Without any hesitation, Kim changed two blades into one, holding the hilt with both of his hands and slashing forward.

[Nightless Slash]

"Damn it!"

Kiro sensed the power of Heavenly Asura Blade. The slash that came out of it was almost as big as his previous slash.

But, he also knew that it had consumed Kim's lifespan. Even so, if this attack lands him, he would definitely get seriously injured.

So, he must deflect it at all costs. There was no way he could avoid it.

Kiro's eyes flashed with determination as he quickly burst out his Aura and Internal Energy into his sword.

His sword suddenly cried in pain. The sharp sound burst out of it and the next moment, the aura of his sword changed from sharp and silent to ferocious and angry.

[Seven Hells Sword Art]

Kiro raised his sword and slashed five times. Each slash struck the previous slash and merged with it.

[Third Hell- Knives Devil]

Bang!

Two massive and powerful sword slashes collided. The sharp energy burst out of it and threw Kim away. Kiro managed to sustain the impact with his Aura.

But the collision didn't end there. The impact was so strong that it was continuously growing. Two slashes were constantly pushing each other.

A sharp slash that was covered in darkness.

On one hand, the dark internal energy amplified by the power of Heavenly Asura Blade was naturally strong to the point where it surpassed Kim's One Strike attack.

On the other hand, five slashes merged together to form a massive slash that was five times stronger than Kiro's normal slashes.

So, naturally, it was strong as well.

Kim who had fallen to the ground was struggling to get up. At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind Kim. It was none other than Kiro.

Because their strikes were strong, he didn't want to wait until Kim struggled to get up.

He wanted to end Kim right now.

So, he instantly came from behind. The sword in his hand covered with Aura moved.

Bang!

But, suddenly the collision between those two slashes burst out. Kiro's sword didn't move. Rather, Kiro himself didn't move. At this moment, there was a man standing at the door.

Of course, it was now just a wooden rectangle. The entire house had already been damaged.

At this moment, Kim's Battle soul was screaming. It was so horrible that Kim felt like he would pass out at any moment. But, his strong Will to survive kept him awake.

His Battle Soul instantly disappeared. It didn't stay out any longer.

Kiro's eyes slowly changed. The man slowly raised his head and stared at Kiro.

His body trembled. Kiro felt like his body was losing all of its strength. The hand also got weak and the sword dropped.

It landed just next to Kim.

Tap!

Suddenly, the man took a step forward. Kiro's body trembled even more. His hair suddenly straightened. His legs were trembling even more. He wanted to kill Kim at any cost.

But, now his body was screaming to leave. His heart was pounding and his mind was in chaos.

The spiritual pressure coming out of the man was so strong that his entire body was on the verge of collapsing.

"No, no, no, don't come near me."

Kiro's voice trembled as he spoke. He wanted to kill Kim. He didn't want to leave right now. Unfortunately, that man didn't listen to him.

Tap!

He took another step and suddenly, Kiro's soul almost came out. His Will to kill Kim collided with his Will to leave.

At this moment, Kiro didn't even realize a strong power was awakening inside of him. Unfortunately, even if it was awakened, it didn't come out.

Tap!

The man took another step. He was almost in front of Kiro. And, at this moment, Kiro's Will to kill Kim vanished like it wasn't even there.

His body turned around as he ran away but his foot stumbled against the brick and fell down. But, he quickly stood up and ran away without even looking back.

At this moment, the man reached in front of Kim. He looked at Kiro and sighed. Then, he looked at Kim.

Although Kim was extremely weak at this moment, he didn't pass out or run away. If Kim could run, then he would've run away.

Even so, it didn't matter to him. The fact that Kim was still holding onto his Will to not pass out was astounding.

A trace of joy emerged in his heart. A gleam of a smile appeared on his face. The excitement that had disappeared for five years finally returned. He crouched down and looked at Kim, asking.

"Do you have something to eat?"
