Shadow Slave novel Chapter 3091

Staggering back and reeling from pain, Sunny raised his odachi, deflecting the follow-up strike of the titanic greatsword — this one a vicious thrust aimed at the slit of his visor.

‘Oh, right... that's not the first time I've been hit by a mountain...’

In Antarctica, Goliath had given him a good kick. Sunny almost died that time — actually, he only survived because of the Undying Chain. This time, all the damage he received was a dent on his armor. That was progress, at least.

Actually, he was not much smaller than Goliath now. His Rank was superior, as well, so if one of them were to be destroyed by a kick from the other, it wouldn't be Sunny who ended up lying on the ground as a pile of shattered stone.

Sadly, the Jade Titan was far more powerful than Goliath, and far more harrowing as well. The Jade Titan was a Nightmare Creature, but before succumbing to Corruption, he had been a warrior on the frontlines of the Doom War. Sunny, meanwhile, was a seasoned veteran of the Age of the Nightmare Spell — both were supremely skilled and experienced, so their battle was like a clash between the champions of two epochs.

They were going to see which one was more skilled, which one was more lethal... and which one was luckier, as well.

There was a deafening, ear-piercing screech when their swords collided, the gigantic odachi pushing the titanic greatsword aside. The tip of the greatsword scraped across the side of Sunny's helmet, missing the visor — in the next moment, he growled and pushed forward, slamming the pommel of his odachi into the Jade Titan's faceplate. The force unleashed by the impact was harrowing enough to shatter the gates of a fortress, producing a devastating shockwave — however, the faceplate wasn't even bent. Before the shockwave could spread, Sunny already chained his next attack, delivering a lethal horizontal slash aimed at the adversary's neck.

The endless expanse of his immense blade raised a hurricane as it cut the winds apart, moving with such speed that its black surface began to glow, heated by air friction.

Come to think of it...

Sunny was already shadowing Neph's [Soul Flame] Ability, so what was stopping him from augmenting his weapon, just like she did? He was used to his ways, his power neatly divided among his seven shadows. But Nephis could spread her flame however she wished, making it more flexible.

So, now, even though this incarnation of Sunny only encompassed one-seventh of his soul, he sent half of the power the flames granted him into the black odachi. Instantly, the orange glow of the great blade swelled with blinding radiance, turning flawlessly white.

The darkness was pushed further back. Sunny aimed to behead the Jade Titan, but the detestable colossus raised a hand and blocked the blow with his impregnable vambrace. And yet, the incandescent blade cut the stonelike metal, biting deep into the creature's wrist.

Sunny smiled darkly and moved, avoiding the counterattack...
