"You Guess?"

Crack crack crack—!

This was the sound of the ground splitting apart.

As countless chunks of stone and rubble burst apart and flew into the sky, the ground at the center of the impact directly collapsed, causing the surrounding earth to crack open into a spiderweb of countless fissures.

On the collapsing ground, Shien and Limjo had already collided.

Facing Limjo's overwhelmingly powerful strike, Shien raised the Holy Sword before him for some reason, blocking the fierce incoming attack.

Limjo's sharp claws immediately struck Shien's Holy Sword, throwing off intense sparks.

Even Rocket would have changed expression slightly upon seeing such a spectacle, wouldn't he?

In contrast, Shien merely narrowed his eyes slightly before calmly beginning to swing the Holy Sword.

The Holy Sword appeared to move slowly, yet it was actually astonishingly fast. It was as though some special rhythm guided it, causing countless streaks of sword-light to flash forth and meet the incoming claws.

Shien, however, was the complete opposite of Limjo. His expression was calm, his gaze deep, and his
