BXBX NOVEL Chapter 695 The Wind
"What was that...?" Ern muttered while in disbelief, "He was able to damage Aurora\'s barrier, wasn\'t he?"
"Unbelievable. Looks like he really isn\'t as easy as I thought. Not only is he good at negotiating, but he\'s pretty strong." Aurora uttered with a dazed look.
"Huh, looks like Erza doesn\'t stand a chance. His weapons are something different." Alas said with a slight smile on his face.
"Don\'t be so cocky." Dormant Stalker muttered, "In his case, the weapon is only part of the power. That wind blade was just compressed energy, nothing more."
Everyone stared at Erza as much depended on her actions. Gisle made only one attack, but it was enough to make them believe he had won.
"That was dangerous, but do you really think that\'s enough to handle me?" Erza frowned as she unleashed her aura.
A golden sheen appeared in her hair while dense streams of energy emanated from her that filled the space.
"Hmm? Activating your Form already?" Gisle asked in a confused manner, "Isn\'t it too early for such serious action?"
"The Form? Unfortunately, I still haven\'t reached the level to discover this power, but I don\'t need to. Like you, I have my trump cards!" Erza exclaimed in a thunderous voice.
Whoooooosh.
A golden flame lit up her arms as she turned into a flash that rushed toward Gisle with tremendous speed.
\'Gold and darkness? Why does she have two different types of energy... Oh, she\'s an Inerian, that should be normal, but then why is her hair half red?\' Gisle inwardly muttered.
Everything was happening very fast, but he could clearly see every movement of Erza\'s, as though in slow motion.
\'Well, I\'ll have a chance to find out more about it on the date.\' Gisle shrugged before swinging his katana.
He started much later than Erza, but despite that was much faster as the tip of the blade left a wide wound on Erza\'s shoulder before she even had time to strike.
"Argh!" Erza cried out in pain as blood gushed from her wound.
Step.
Gisle approached her, grabbed her arm, and with a smooth move threw her to the other end of the arena. It all happened too fast for Erza to react, so she hit her back against the stone wall.
"Bastard!" Erza exclaimed with a furious look, "My skin can\'t even be pierced by the claws of Fourth Chronicle monsters! However, all you had to do was take one easy swipe!"
"Hmm? So what? It\'s your problem that you\'re so weak." Gisle uttered as he tilted his head.
"Tsk. What\'s the point of fighting if all your strength comes from that weapon? In real combat it\'s necessary, but do you want that kind of victory?" Erza frowned as she ran her palm over her shoulder.
The golden flame burnt the wound as Erza\'s face twisted in pain, but it had an effect, as the wound began to heal with the redoubled speed in a few seconds.
"Huh, aren\'t you asking too much? Where\'s your pride?" Gisle grinned, "All right, though, I have one condition."
Whooooooosh.
The katana disappeared from Gisle\'s hands as he pointed two fingers.
"I want at least two dates with you, and as a bonus, you have to wear whatever I choose! Gisle exclaimed with a devious smile on his face.
For a while Erza was stunned as her eyes went wide, then she grinned, shook her head, and said, "Okay. That would be fair. Go ahead, I want to see your true power, not your weapon."
Erza folded her palms together as two golden flames appeared beside her that headed toward Gisle, burning everything in their path. Though it wasn\'t enough to break the dome, the magical circles on the walls were severely damaged by the too-high temperatures.
\'Well, well, manipulating her was easier than I thought.\' Gisle inwardly muttered as he stretched his arm forward.
His eyes flashed as a wave of energy that flowed through his body rushed to his palm. Gray particles appeared at his fingertips, they instantly turned into an eerie stream of wind that headed toward the golden flame.
The two elements met each other, causing a powerful shockwave that tossed Erza aside, but Gisle remained on his feet. He stared with calm eyes at the particles of flame that flew beside him.
"That sly bastard..." Aurora muttered, "I thought he chose Erza for some special reason, but it looks like it was easier than I thought."
"Hmm? What are you talking about?" Alice asked while in confusion.
"He didn\'t have any cunning plan. He was telling the truth, if someone other than Wain fights against him, he will definitely win, those are his words." Aurora said with a serious look.
"Well, sometimes even the pure truth can seem like a trick." Wain uttered in a calm voice, "Even if there is he used his talent."
"Huh, I wonder if he\'s actually attracted to Erza. She\'s a strong woman, no doubt, but even for me, it\'s too much. Is there a man who can handle her?" Ern asked while holding his chin in a thoughtful manner.
At the same time, Gisle with a slow step headed toward Erza.
She was shocked that he could beat her flames so easily, but she wasn\'t about to give up so easily. Again and again she unleashed blasts of golden fire on him, but Gisle nullified those attacks with a torrent of wind each time.
"That\'s enough. In fact, I lied to you about something at the beginning of the fight." Gisle said with a calm look.
"Hmm? What is it this time?" Erza frowned as she prepared for the next attack.
"I\'m not going to hurt you, much less kill you, but I just have to show you that you\'re weaker than I am. That\'s the basics." Gisle spoke in a majestic voice as he raised his hand up.
Massive white streams of energy erupted from Gisle\'s body that made the entire arena tremble. The pressure that emanated from him made it difficult for everyone but Wain and Aurora to breathe, but that was only the beginning as thunderclouds began to appear among the clear skies.
