Eris's attacks were fierce, every move delivered with all her strength.
High chops, mid-level slashes, low rising cuts-each strike linked to the next, every move lethal. Her long red hair danced wildly through the air with her movements, like a blazing flame leaping across the beach.
But to Radeus, these attacks were child's play, far too weak, far too immature!
Nowhere near Randolph!
In his hand, that fragile branch seemed like a peerless sword. He did not even move his feet; with just slight turns of his wrist, he easily blocked all of Eris's attacks.
"This..."
"This is the Heavenly Sword?"
Rudeus watched Radeus's performance in astonishment. He had heard about the Heavenly Sword while chatting with Radeus, but this was his first time seeing it.
Back then, Radeus's assessment of the Heavenly Sword had been-
"The highest realm a swordsman can reach, the endpoint of all swordsmanship!"
He had never imagined it would be this absurd!
Even Eris froze amid her fierce assault. Her sword stopped in midair, bringing her offensive to a halt. Her pupils contracted slightly as she stared at the dry branch pressed against her blade, momentarily dazed. But the Dharma Wheel behind Eris did not stop turning.
The moment Radeus picked up the branch, Mahoraga mini had already begun working hard to adapt.
Eris's progress bar was also rising little by little.

The collisions between branch and sword grew more frequent, faster and faster, like a rapid drumbeat.
Yet after one
