Liberators

Chapter 13 - The Determining Fight

'Klaaangg! Ttrager!'

The battle between Eva and the Dread Rider is still ongoing. Now, with Eva in a defensive position.

Slowly, the effects of his Flux Booster began to decline. This was accompanied by a drastic decrease in his physical abilities.

Not only that, the long-term fight had left Eva out of breath. The self that could still continue swinging his greatsword at this moment was a miracle.

'klaaangg!!! Frruugg!!'

A vertical slash from the Conferred Knight nearly split Eva's body in two. Fortunately, Eva managed to hold it back by using her greatsword as a shield.

But nevertheless....

'Krethajack!'

His sword began to crack. Unable to withstand the Dread Rider's black sword.

"Damn it...." Complain Eva with a soft look.

At that moment, he knew. That his life might end this time as well.

'Ttraa!'

The longer Eva held it, the cracks on her sword widened. In the end, the sword broke completely.

'Typeaaakkk!!!'

The black knight raised his sword back up. Prepare to swing it once again towards Eva.

'Aeah.... Ended already. But atleast.... Axels.... Take and save the refugees.'

The sentence flashed through Eva's head. At this moment, the entire world seemed to be walking so slowly.

Flashbacks over all his life began to appear in his view.

Including things he did not want to remember.

'Sorry....'

With that last word on her mind, Eva closed her eyes. Intended to accept his death.

But nevertheless....

...'BLAARRR!!!'...

Something seemed to throw the Dread Rider far to the side. Along with that, a flash of blue light seemed to be snatching before him.

At that moment, Eva saw him.

The figure of a man he had just met some time ago. But not with a face full of doubt. Except with a face full of determination.

His gaze was so sharp towards that Dread Rider, with his right hand that had just swung his one-handed sword.

All of those things are seen by Eva in that slowing world.

'Axel?' Eva asked in her heart a puzzled. During this time, Eva thought that Axel would run away with the refugees considering how much she hated this job.

A work forced upon him, just because He has a little power over all the others. Through a ruse, or rather a trap.

But now? Axel came back and fought with him? Eva couldn't believe any of this.

And in an instant....

The world disappeared.

Now, what was before him, could no longer be seen with ordinary eyes.

Rows of lightning and lightning struck here and there so quickly. Throwing the Dread Rider from one place to another in just one blink of an eye.

'Blaayarrr! Duaarr! Braaakk!!'

Not until one second, Axel managed to slash the Dread Rider 5 times while throwing it to various different places before finally throwing it into the air.

'Swuuusshhh!!!'

The figure of the Dread Rider was seen hovering in the air, without the slightest ability to fly since the loss of its Wyvern.

At that moment, that flash of light returned to Eva's side. It shows Axel's figure covered in a bluish light and also a barrage of lightning all over his body.

In his right hand, Axel carried a one-handed sword that had now been completely crushed. Leave only the handle alone and the blade that is only half a finger.

"Eva, I'll borrow your sword." Axel said briefly while throwing his shattered sword.

Before he could reply to his words, Axel had again prepared his horses to jump into the air.

Right in the direction where the Dread Rider was still falling.

'Blaabarrrr!!!'

The pounding of Axel's legs made a huge crack in this concrete road. Including leaving an electric bolt in various directions.

And in an instant, Axel had swung Eva's greatsword right at the Dread Rider's body.

Not just one time.

Axel slashed the broken great sword 7 times by jumping between buildings on each of his slashes.

'Zraasshh! Zraass! Zraaasshhh! Zraaasshhh!! Zraaasshhh!! Zraaasshhhh!!'

A total of 6 slashes were directed horizontally in order to destroy the thick armor that the Dread Rider was wearing.

While the last slash is done vertically, with the aim to smash the Dread Rider back to the ground.

'Zraaaaassshhh!!! Albaaaaaarrrr!!!'

Axel then gives the final attack by plunging vertically towards the body of the Dread Rider lying on the ground.

Both of his hands were holding large swords belonging to Eva that had currently been crushed and only the blade was left that was as long as one hand.

Axel pointed the tip of the sword straight down. Until finally....

'Jleeebbbb!'

A puncture vertically at a very high speed it managed to penetrate the Dread Rider's armor that had been crushed. Right in his chest.

"Kuuaaagghhh!!!" Shouted the Dread Rider while spewing a lot of blood from behind his steel helmet.

Seeing that even after all the attacks he had not died, Axel took out a few throwing knives from his waist. Stabbed it many times in some places where the armor has been damaged.

'Jleebb! Jleebbb! Jleeebb!!'

He continued to do so until the Dread Rider no longer reacted.

And soon after, Axel stood up. Walk away from the body of the most terrible monster he's ever faced.

His whole body looked so limp. His footsteps were broken as if he no longer had energy.

Eva, who saw Axel defeat the Dread Rider, seemed to smile broadly. Happy for this incredible achievement.

"Axel! You are truly amazing! Look, you can do it if you want to, right?!" Eva shouted while running lightly towards Axel.

But Eva had no answer from Axel.

The man simply walked in silence, without a word coming out of his mouth. In fact, his gaze did not lead to Eva at all.

Slowly, the electricity that was all over Axel's body began to fade and disappear.

And after everything was completely gone....

'Brukkk!!!'

Axel fell to the ground. Completely powerless to stand up. In fact, it did not have the slightest bit of strength left to maintain its consciousness.

Eva who saw that immediately accelerated her footsteps.

"Axel?! What the hell is going on?! Say something!" Shouted Eva.

No response from Axel. In fact, his pulse was really so weak. As Eva attempts to find Axel's Flux Booster on her waist to heal Axel's wounds....

"Nothing?"

Eva just realized it.

That Axel's previous monstrous powers, inflicted from the use of the Flux Booster. And the reason why Axel ran to the hiding place of the refugees before....

Is to have them inject that Flux liquid into him.

"Defend! Axels! Hang on! The fortress is near, upon arrival there...."

Axel was no longer able to hear what Eva was saying at this time. And his consciousness, had completely disappeared.

Leave only darkness in all directions He looks.
