Hero of Darkness Chapter 275: Public Declaration

Chapter 275: Public Declaration

After the match commenced, Kahn openly declared that he would beat the opponent as if his victory was already decided. The 30 years old, 7 feet tall human knight, clad in white and golden armor with a lion head sigil embedded on the chest, stood at the other end of the battle ring and was completely taken aback but then his face turned furious toward Kahn.

He was a knight and Kahn was a swordsman… Everyone knew who had more resilience and defensive capabilities based on their professions.

"Huh? Who do you think you're talking to, peasant?! I was going to go easy on you. So if you don't want to get publicly humiliated by me, you should apologize to me right now!" exclaimed the man in fury.

He was the clan heir of one of the powerful clans from the neutral faction. Yet someone he never even heard of was looking down on him and that too in front of an audience of 2 million people.

He banged his greatsword on the s.h.i.+eld and equipped his helmet as he took a defensive stance. A yellow and hexagonal barrier made of aura appeared in front of his s.h.i.+eld.

To Kahn, who was agitated and needed something to release his anger on.. The cliche words of this young master didn't faze him in the slightest.

This time however, Kahn decided to not hold back and go all in. Because if he kept hiding at this point, people wouldn't pay attention to him or ask questions if he went missing out of the blue. So attracting public eyes on him was the only choice he had.

His countenance turned grim again.. A face of a man who was completely fed up with holding himself back was revealed to the audience.

Swoos.h.!.+

Before the opponent could charge at him, Kahn suddenly appeared in front of the knight and swung Lucifer to strike the aura s.h.i.+eld.

Crack!

Without even using the draconian bloodline effect, Kahn instantly broke through the aura s.h.i.+eld and his blade clanged again the metallic s.h.i.+eld of the opponent.

Screech!

His sword made a gash on the s.h.i.+eld and Kahn gave a look to the tall opponent.

"Is that all? I'm not even using both of my hands." scored Kahn.

BOOM!!

He let out another burst of aura revealed his rank in front of the entire crowd.

"Peak Grandmaster! He's a peak grandmaster!" spoke one of the clan members of this knight.

More than 10 thousand members from the knight's clan had come to show their support but as soon as Kahn revealed his rank.. Not just them but people who had bet on this knight felt like a cat got their tongue.

Clang!

Kahn used lightning flash skill and broke through the defense of the knight, he round kicked him in the stomach and sent him flying towards the other end of the battle ring.

Swoos.h.!.+

Before the knight's body even landed on the floor, Kahn appeared right next to his flying figure.

Bam!

He elbowed the levitating opponent and put him in the ground with a loud bang.

Horrified.. The knight was horrified of Kahn in just a few exchanges.

One, because he was a rank above him and two, Kahn was not even using his full strength, yet he almost felt like dying.

"Impossible… how can this be?" spoke the knight as blood leaked out from his mouth.

"Oye.. Are you in a position to think about something else?" asked Kahn as if he was looking at a dead man.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

He finally activated the draconian bloodline effect and a blistering heat was released from lucifer.

Clang!

s.h.i.+ng!

Shrill!

One by one, Kahn's sword repeatedly attacked the opponent and heavily damaged him despite the knight using his damage reduction skills and defense increasing skills at the same time.

Each of the swings made by Kahn felt like a hammer striking on the anvil. And the impact alone was sending tremors in his body.

"You.. Don't think you can defeat me just because you're a rank above. My entire armor and weapons are made by sir Mephisto!

He's a peak grandmaster blacksmith of the empire. There's no way I'd fall short against someone like you!" he bellowed in rage and banged his s.h.i.+eld on the ground.

Dhang!

The battle ring shook and the ground started shattering from the point of impact.

A shockwave rippled from the knight's s.h.i.+eld and forced Kahn ten meters away.

Kahn spoke as soon as he regained his footing.

"Hey, b.i.t.c.ha.s.s punk! Why are you resisting? It makes me want to hit you even more.

Just stand there quietly so I can beat you to a pulp!" spoke Kahn and the very next second, his figure disappeared from the knight's sight.

"Behind you." a whisper reached the knight's ears and he turned his head back.

A set of wrathful eyes stared right into his own and a palm appeared right in front of his face.

Grasp!

Kahn jumped and grabbed the knight's helmet. He pulled it out and threw it out of the battle ring.

Swing!

He made a horizontal swing infused with fire element aura and pushed the opponent on the backfoot again.

This time, there was a big and hollow dent on the ma.s.sive s.h.i.+eld after suffering from the impact.

"Why the h.e.l.l should I care if your gear is made by a peak grandmaster blacksmith?

Who the f.u.c.k said that you can win against anyone just because you have better armors and weapons?

Let me break that stupid notion of yours." said Kahn and dashed at the enemy with full speed.

Clang! Clang! Bang! Bang!

For the next two minutes.. The entire battle arena went silent. n.o.body paid attention to other matches because the one between the knight and the swordsman had taken a sudden turn of events that baffled all the onlookers.

Because right now.. Kahn was consistently attacking the knight like a maniac gone berserk.

Kahn hadn't even activated all of his attack buff or berserk skills and yet.. His heavy and unshakable aura blades from the Bladestorm skill had started chipping down the knight heir's s.h.i.+eld and even the greatsword in his hands started cracking.

It wasn't that the opponent's s.h.i.+eld or sword were weaker.. Just that Lucifer was made from the Magma Drake's claws which even a sword made from mythril couldn't scratch. It was already in a different league above other epic rank swords.

But incorporated with Kahn's furious attacks, there wasn't much the epic rank weaponry of the knight could do.

Crack! Crack!

In the next 5 minutes, Kahn cracked open the s.h.i.+eld and broke the sword in two pieces using lucifer. The knight almost started crying after watching how his opponent break his precious gear.

Just then.. Kahn declared in a loud voice. His words echoed in the entire battle arena as he made a groundbreaking revelation.

"What a trash gear. It still cannot stand up against the better quality weapon made by a better blacksmith." he revealed.

"What do you mean.." asked the knight in disbelief.

"You see.. My sword is forged by the best blacksmith in the entire Rakos Empire. It's made by.." he said and continued in a kingly tone.

"The Peak Grandmaster Blacksmith, Albestros Winston!" he declared for the audience.

"As for you.." he said with a wide grin on his face.

"Let's start the real beating session."
