"Qilin Technique and the Martial Saint"
Edelweiss was gentle and kind; during her fight with Ikki Kurogane, she’d held back immensely.
But now, facing Drake, she couldn’t be casual.
She sensed Drake’s strength; she became serious.
Edelweiss unleashed sword ki, creating a light storm. Dust flew; trees creaked; glass shattered.
"I haven’t asked your name!" Edelweiss’s presence filled the space.
Drake prepared himself. "Drake, from Shinryuu Temple!"
Edelweiss nodded, remembering the name.
Without words, they clashed.
Edelweiss was faster; she was a flash of light.
Drake was in full Dragon Force; dragon scales appeared on his face. He became a firelight, colliding with the white flash. Discover more novels at novel·fıre·net
Sparks flew; their figures were blurry; their speed was beyond human perception.
Drake gritted his teeth; he finally understood Ikki Kurogane’s feelings. Edelweiss’s speed was overwhelming.
In an instant, Edelweiss unleashed dozens of strikes. Drake’s arms blurred as he clashed with her.
Steam rose from Drake’s body; his pupils constricted. Edelweiss’s swordsmanship was perfect; Drake found no openings.
Edelweiss was surprised too.
Drake was strong; his strength and speed matched hers, but there was still a gap.
Edelweiss parried Drake’s punches with one hand, then drew back the other.
Drake saw sword ki gather; the strike was like a beam of light.
The sword ki tore Drake’s shirt, leaving numerous wounds. They healed quickly, but Drake was shocked.
Drake retreated, looking at Edelweiss seriously. Edelweiss’s sword wasn’t just fast.
His inability to react wasn’t due to speed; her sword had no acceleration.
Objects accelerate from rest to motion. Edelweiss’s attacks went from zero to one hundred instantly.
This caused Drake’s discomfort; he wasn’t "used" to her attacks.
Drake didn’t know how to use such swordsmanship; it wasn’t a technique; it couldn’t be countered.
He needed more power.
Exhaling, Drake tore his shirt.
Flames gathered above Drake, forming a dragon.
"Spirit Assimilation, Blazing Flame Dragon King!"
The dragon merged with Drake; his body became fire magic; sharp horns emerged from his forehead.
"I’ve been waiting; let’s continue!"
Drake, in Spirit Assimilation, unleashed his full power; his lengthened dragon scale scarf left a red trail.
A loud sound; Drake’s fist slammed onto Edelweiss’s crossed swords. Edelweiss’s foot moved slightly; she’d retreated.
Her crossed swords forced Drake back. Edelweiss stepped forward, slashing with sharp sword ki.
Countless flashes of sword ki cut Drake; but he was in magic form; his wounds healed instantly.
Drake abandoned defense, attacking fiercely.
Flames enveloped Drake; Edelweiss saw a fire dragon behind him.
Drake shattered several sword ki, hitting Edelweiss’s winged swords, forcing her back.
Drake kicked Edelweiss’s sword; using the recoil, he leaped.
Drake’s fiery arms swung down at Edelweiss.
Edelweiss easily cut through the flames.
Drake anticipated this; he descended, attacking again.
"Finally... Crushing Fang!"
Drake’s fiery claws attacked.
Edelweiss held her swords, like an angel with white wings.
Drake saw white feathers falling; they were the reflected light of slashes.
The fiery claws were blocked; Drake was thrown back.
Even with full Dragon Force and Spirit Assimilation, Drake couldn’t match Edelweiss’s sword.
Drake made a decision; charging at Edelweiss, his ki changed.
"Shinryuu Temple Secret Technique, Four-Symbol Fist Ultimate Technique, Qilin Technique!"
Edelweiss sensed the change; she didn’t directly counter Drake’s next punch.
A normal punch; the ground shattered; dozens of cracks, tens of meters long, spread.
Edelweiss was sure Drake hadn’t used any special technique. It was a normal punch, but incredibly powerful.
Drake explained, "This is the ultimate technique he learned and modified from the Shinryuu Temple’s Four-Symbol Fist, mastered by pushing oneself to the limit—Qilin Technique! It unleashes all power instantly!
Now I’m worthy of Hiyoku’s full power!"
Edelweiss didn’t doubt this; Drake was ten times stronger. He could defeat her.
She retracted her sword ki, becoming calm again. But this made her seem even more dangerous.
Drake wouldn’t hide anything.
He clasped his hands; 〈Evil Dragon〉 and 〈Dragonslayer〉 vanished; a light extended from his hands, widening at the end, forming a special curve.
A unique polearm appeared.
Inherent Devices were manifestations of a sword master’s soul; they didn’t change easily. Edelweiss didn’t understand.
Drake, as a time traveler, was special; his soul had different forms.
Raised by dragons, inheriting dragon power, and aiming to slay dragons, created 〈Evil Dragon〉 and 〈Dragonslayer〉.
But his soul’s essence was the bloodline and pride cultivated over five thousand years.
This created another form of Drake’s Device.
Edelweiss looked at Drake’s weapon. "Is that a naginata? No, is that the great sword from that country?"
Drake held his Device. "In my country, a famous general used this weapon; it’s named after him.
"It’s called—Reclining Moon Blade"
This Device was almost two and a half meters long; a dragon coiled between the blade and handle; its eyes glowed red.
The blade curved like a crescent moon.
It was a famous Reclining Moon Blade.
This Device’s name was the general’s title... Martial Saint!
