Leon's sword erupted with violent crimson and white energy as hundreds of eclipse-shaped slashes exploded around the king from every direction at once, each one powerful enough to erase high-level monsters instantly.
And yet—
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
The [Forsaken King] blocked nearly all of them.
Even while dividing his focus between Leon and the meteor above, his movements remained terrifyingly precise.
His sword moved faster than Leon could properly follow, darkness trailing behind every swing as the king deflected slash after slash after slash with monstrous skill.
The few attacks that managed to slip through his defense crashed into a layer of darkness surrounding his body.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The barrier trembled slightly, but never broke. Leon narrowed his eyes.
'So this is the difference between us under normal circumstances…'
The king was overwhelming. Absolutely overwhelming.
Leon immediately switched attacks, firing spell after spell toward him.
