Activating her boundary, s.h.i.+ro waved her hand as a web of sword slashes suddenly appeared around the queen and her two guards.

Shocked at the speed of her slashes, the two guards quickly surrounded the queen and blocked the blades with their bodies.

"Che, solid b.a.s.t.a.r.ds" s.h.i.+ro furrowed her brows.

Despite her sword ignoring 80% of all armour, they were still tanking her slashes like it was nothing.

However, that was just the average slash so it didn't worry s.h.i.+ro too much.

Looking at her, Limra had a pale face as she couldn't help but feel an innate fear towards her.

'Seems like her fear resistance is pretty low. However, the guards have quite the high resistance.' s.h.i.+ro thought to herself as the two tried to attack her.

But before the blades landed on her, Nan Tian flickered in front of the two and grabbed their blades with his hand.

"Don't go attacking her in front of me now. It's rather rude." Nan Tian smiled as he narrowed his eyes from behind the mask.

Pus.h.i.+ng his hands out, he deflected both the blades and slammed his fists into their chest.

*BANG!!!

The impact of the punch reverberated through the place as the two guards were pushed back by a few steps.

Seeing this, s.h.i.+ro quickly activated the effect of her blade.

Watching as runic patterns light up on her blade,

Suddenly, an invisible force pushed everyone aside and their figures became faint. It was almost as if they were in a soul like state right now where no one else can affect them.

Naturally, the guards rushed to Limra's side and wanted to help but realised that their hands would phase through her.

Glaring at Nan Tian, the full aura of a tier 6 powerhouse crashed into his body as he forced a smile.

Releasing his own aura, he summoned a blade and charged towards the two tier 6's as a myriad of spells and attacks followed behind him.

While this was happening, Limra was a little slow in facing off against s.h.i.+ro due to the sword's fear skill. However, she wasn't affected for long as Limra pulled out an item and a purple glow wrapped around her body.

Updated from lightnovelworld[.]com

'Probably a fear resistant type item.' s.h.i.+ro thought to herself while flickering in front of Limra.

Flicking her wrist, she sent another web of slashes towards Limra's hand in an attempt to disarm her of the item.

However, just as she did this, Limra raised her hand and a translucent barrier appeared in front of her.

Narrowing her eyes, s.h.i.+ro activated the third effect of her sword.

Expending 2% of her mana, her sword seemed to glitch out for a moment before reappearing past the barrier.

Shocked at the sudden s.h.i.+ft in the sword's location, Limra bent her body back nimble and dodged the blade.

Reaching towards s.h.i.+ro's abdominal area, a purple and red glow could be seen on her hand.

Furrowing her brows, s.h.i.+ro quickly dispersed her body in a ma.s.s of shadows Limra's hand phased through and didn't manage to grab her.

Activating her Encroaching Darkness Skill, dark clouds loomed over the city as it suddenly became night. With this, the pa.s.sive of her Sigil of Night was activated. Doubling her power. Unfortunately, it wasn't absolute darkness otherwise her power would have been quadrupled.

Though there was one problem with this skill initially. In absolute darkness she would be affected too but with her new acquisition of the boundary this was no longer a problem. Which only makes s.h.i.+ro think that this skill was supposed to synergise with the boundary as both as it gotten thanks to Nyx.

Thinking about this, she couldn't help but smirk as her body rea.s.sembled not too far from Limra.

Seeing s.h.i.+ro reappear, Limra didn't hesitate to wave her hand towards s.h.i.+ro as a several tier 5 magic circles appeared around her.

Smirking softly, s.h.i.+ro cut them apart with ease as Limra was shocked.

Just as s.h.i.+ro did this, she noticed a small bar on the bottom of her screen.

[Blessing of Ares: Fighting Aura 1/100]

Remembering that she can consume the entire aura once it reaches 100 to gain an attack that ignores all armour and was enhanced with the power of a G.o.d, s.h.i.+ro laughed as that was essentially overkill. After all, her sword's pa.s.sive was helping her suppress Limra easily.

As the sword could only let them duel for a single minute, she had to make this short.

"If you're a mage then I feel sorry for you since I'm a mage's worst nightmare." s.h.i.+ro laughed as she flickered towards Limra.

"Don't get too arrogant now." Limra narrowed her eyes as she summoned two daggers that seemed to glow with a mystical light.

"Queens are superior in physical strength too." She warned as she charged at s.h.i.+ro.

Quickly raising her sword, s.h.i.+ro deflected the dagger as the second dagger pierced towards her face.

"Targeting my face so quickly, are you jealous of my beauty? Don't worry, I understand." s.h.i.+ro taunted as she ducked down and elbowed her in the stomach.

Just as she did this, she saw Limra smirk and drop the dagger, Grabbing her shoulder, s.h.i.+ro could feel her strength leaving her.

'Sh*t!'

Quickly diving into the rift, she forced some distance between them. Glancing at her stats, she frowned as the effect that she was being affected by.

[Siphoning]

0.2% of your highest stat has been transferred for a short period of time.

While the contact was short, 0.2% of her INT stat was already transferred. While it may sound little, 0.2% was still 112,830 points worth of INT for Limra. If the contact had lasted any longer, it would be much higher considering her overall stats.

Seeing the number that she had just absorbed, Limra widened her eyes and smiled at s.h.i.+ro.

"If I absorb all of you and kill you, your stats will be mine." She grinned as there was obsession in her eyes.

Without delay, she activated several of her abilities as her aura exploded out, forcing s.h.i.+ro back.

Reappearing before s.h.i.+ro, she tried to grab her by the head.

However, s.h.i.+ro was able to react quick enough as her body dispersed into Shadows.

Reappearing behind Limra, s.h.i.+ro knew that she couldn't hold back on her skills either so she activated the following skills that had no backlashes.

Pandora's Requiem – Third Ability: Origin, Divine Raiment EX, Divine Empress' Domain EX, Silvanis Effect 1, 4 and 5.

Debuffing Limra with her domain, she enhanced all elemental abilities as Silvanis was coated with the power of the Error Element.

With this, the sword will allow her to strike towards Limra's Source code as the sword's effect also makes it so that she will deal 100% true damage. Not only that, but the effect also 4 lets her infuse the sword with any element and its powers will be boosted by 200% that ignores all resistance.

This meant that Limra had no way to protect herself from her blade.

But it becomes worse once one takes into consideration that with Pandora's Requiem's ability of turning all her mana into origin, her spell efficiency was essentially tripled as Origin makes it so that her spells receive a 300% boost to power that lasts for 5 minutes.

Feeling the touch of death behind her, Limra had cold sweat fall down her back as she turned around as quick as she should.

However, with the feeling of death so close behind her, no matter how fast she turned, it felt slow to her.

Catching a glimpse of s.h.i.+ro from the corner of her eye, she saw the sword that was wrapped with a malevolent glow that was also strangely mesmerising. The flickering of light was almost like a sky full of stars as the sword slowly approached her.

Knowing that her death was close if she was. .h.i.t by this, Limra bit her lip and activated her trump card.

A set of black and purple robes wrapped around her body as an illusionary purple crown could be seen above her head.

Gritting her teeth, she tried her best to dodge the blade.

*PUCHI!!!

Despite her efforts, the blade still cut against her shoulder as her entire right arm was cut off.

Feeling pain that was far worse than what she had felt before, Limra couldn't hold back a scream as she quickly backed off from s.h.i.+ro.

Unfortunately for her, s.h.i.+ro wasn't done. There was still 25 seconds left to the duel and by the end of it, there was going to be one dead queen.

Takemikazuchi Technique + Boundary!

Boosting her speed and attack, she had another set of skills up her sleeve.

Activating Pandora's Requiem's Fifth ability – Divine Enchantment, s.h.i.+ro enchanted her skill, Keitoma, to the next tier.

The skill itself was something that could restrain people for a short period of time anyways but one it reached the next tier, the duration and the strength of the restriction naturally increased.

With the queen frozen in place, she was an easy target for s.h.i.+ro's sword.

Slas.h.i.+ng her body to pieces, s.h.i.+ro watched as the system notification of her receiving a decrease in stats thanks to her being in Lima's domain disappeared.
