Chapter 93: Chapter 93
“Come, this time I’ll let you attack”, Eru gestured with his hand while grinning. The smoke from the explosion earlier dissipated, revealing the blue-haired woman’s condition. Turns out, the blue-haired woman stood strong with slight wounds on her body. The blue-haired woman’s eyes flashed with determination, “Then, here I go!” the blue-haired woman gripped her sword tightly before charging at Eru. Eru got ready for the blue-haired woman’s attack when the latter clenched her right fist, making a small bucket shield appear from her gauntlet. She used her right hand equipped with the small bucket shield to bash at Eru before slashing with her left.
The blue-haired woman’s swung her sword coated with her blue-coloured aura. When Eru dodged her attack, the blue-haired woman’s slash continued on. This time, her attack was the one causing the floor to split in two, much to Ling ire. Eru had a smirk on his face, “Huh, replying back, I see”, he quipped before he had to defend against the blue-haired woman’s barrage of attack. “Not bad, not bad”, Eru smiled. Ever since he fought at the Great Aeolus City’s tournament, Eru’s skill had increased by leaps and bounds. Fighting against strong opponents really did make one grow. Eru fought countless opponents stronger than himself on his journey, and he had to utilize his skill to the max just to survive.
Eru even had to use up some of his life forces to do so. Fighting against the blue-haired woman was relaxing to Eru, and he found that this was a nice change of pace in his life. The blue-haired woman had a fierce expression on her face while fighting against Eru. “Good, good. Your use of aura is magnificent. But, your techniques still needs some work”, Eru quipped. He poked the blue-haired woman’s waist, “Use your waist more in your attack. Smoothen your rotation as you swing your sword”, he said while dodging the blue-haired woman’s thrust. “Tch”, the blue-haired woman clicked her tongue as she pulled her thrust backwards, stepping back to recalibrate her approach.
“Don’t tell me, is that all you’ve got? Come on, I still don’t have enough fun yet”, Eru let out a taunting laugh. “Don’t mock me!” the blue-haired woman hissed before continuing to attack Eru. “Good, good. That’s the way”, Eru said while dodging or parrying every single attack that the blue-haired woman launched at him. “Guh, why won’t it connect!?” the blue-haired woman muttered frustratingly. Eru chuckled at this, “Haha, as I told you before, your use of Aura can be considered very good; however, your technique is lacking.” The blue-haired woman bit her lower lips, “I don’t believe I can’t hit you once.”
The blue-haired woman was frustrated. She hailed from a very secluded village full of experts in the north of Gale territory. “Lan, go out and experience the world. We in the village were just old men and women. There are a lot of people out there who are more powerful than us. When you go out, you’ll understand that there’s a sky above the sky” suddenly, the blue-haired woman’s grandfather’s word echoes inside of her. ‘I thought I was a genius, reaching 1st Grade Aura Master being only at 23 years old. However, this raven-haired youth in front of me looked younger than me, and his Aura felt way more profound than mine. Grandfather, you’re right,’ she thought in her head while focusing on landing a hit against Eru.
“Good, good. You’re finally beginning to use your hips properly. But, like the guy before, your attacks are too honest”, Eru said before he had to quickly eat his words. The blue-haired woman lifted up her right hand, using the bucket shield on her arms to bash Eru. Then, instead of following it through, the blue-haired woman immediately crouched down and did a sweeping attack with her leg. Eru was about to jump, but the blue-haired woman’s attacks were not done yet. Turned out, the sweep was another bluff. The blue-haired woman thrust her sword towards Eru’s torso. Eru quickly bent his body backwards, barely avoiding the blue-haired woman’s sudden attack.
“Whew, that was close. Now you’re….” Eru could not finish his sentence because the blue-haired woman continued her attacks with a shield bash. Eru managed to block the shield bash in time with his sword. But, the blue-haired woman immediately followed up with a diagonal slash from her sword. Eru managed to avoid the blue-haired woman’s sword swing, but not without a slight wound on his cheek. “I finally did it”, the blue-haired woman said, panting hard but still holding her fighting stance, “I finally got you once”, she smiled. Eru touched his cheek, wiping the blood from his cheek; Eru cheekily smiled, “Well done. As a reward, I’ll show you a glimpse of my true power.”
Then, Eru stepped backwards. He held Buddy firmly with his two hands as aura burst out from within him. “Eruken!” Eru shouted. Raven-coloured aura went spiralling, surrounding Eru, making his figure full of power. “What the hell is this…” the blue-haired woman exclaimed while the other adventurer’s applicants had their mouths wide agape. “Try not to die”, Eru advised as he swung his sword downwards. Ling’s forehead was drenched with sweat when she saw Eru’s attack. Sensing the danger in that attack, Ling immediately appeared right in front of Lan, the blue-haired woman. “Damnit, shithead! Hold back a little!” Ling furiously yelled out. Strange symbols emerged from her body as Ling utilized every single ounce of her mana to form a barrier. Ling’s mana surged from within her, revealing her prowess as a 4th Circle Mage.
The talismans in Ling’s hand lit up like a candle before flying in front of her, forming a hexagon barrier. Eru’s bloodshot eyes did not see this as he swung his sword downwards. Eru’s power now was comparable to a 5th to 6th Grade Aura Master thanks to Eruken. His sword hit Ling’s barrier, causing an explosion engulfing the entire training hall. A few minutes passed, and the smoke from the explosion was starting to dissipate. Eru had a wide smile on his face while the rest of the people in the training hall stood in silence. Fear and admiration were on their face while Lan sat dumbfounded.
Ling had blood dripped from her mouth. Her clothes were in tatters while her body was covered in wounds. ‘What a monster,’ she thought with trepidation and fear. When the smoke was fully dissipated, Eru saw what happened in front of him, and his smile was gone. “I’m sorry, I got carried away”, Eru worriedly said while he took out a green potion from his pouch. “Fuck yes, you should be sorry”, Ling grumbled, “Give it to me”, she snatched the green potion from Eru’s hand. Then, she opened the bottle; after rubbing her wounds with the potion, Ling drank the rest of the potion clean.
“Ah, damn good potion”, Ling wiped her mouth, “Why the hell did you do that?” she yelled at Eru. Eru scratched the back of his head, “Sorry, sorry. I guess I’d just get too fired up sometimes”, he said. “Haah”, Ling let out a sigh, “What are you going to do about the room then?”
“What room?” Eru asked before realizing that a crater was created on the training hall, “Oh. Right, folks, I’m passing you all, so, have a great day!” Eru said before hurriedly running away from the situation. The remaining people inside the training hall stood dumbfounded while Ling’s forehead twitched with annoyance, “You fucking bastard! Come back here!” she yelled out loud before heaving a heavy sigh. “Haah, he’ll be back. Staff!” Ling called out. Then, the adventurers guild’s staff entered the training hall, with the man named Gu leading them. “Will you please clean this up, Gu?” Ling asked. “Yes, ma’am”, Gu replied before commanding the other adventurers guild’s staff with him.
Ling walked away from the training hall. She went through the adventurers guild’s corridor, arriving at the second floor where her room resides. Ling walked inside her room before looking at herself in the mirror. She sighed, “What a strong man”, Ling said with a blush. Then, Ling opened her wardrobe and changed her tattered clothes. When she did that, Ling found herself hot and her body wet with pleasure. She bit her lips before licking it, looking both creepy and seductive, “Eru, Eru, Eru. I can’t wait until I can make you mine.”

Meanwhile, Eru ran away with his tail between his legs. “Fuck, fuck. What the hell is that woman? What a scary eyes….” Eru mumbled with fear. People thought that Eru ran away because of what he did to the Adventurers Guild’s training hall but no. Actually, Eru wouldn’t run away if it was only that much since he had done worse things than destroying a training hall. Eru only ran away because when he saw the stares from Ling’s eyes, he felt chilled in his bones, and his sense of danger was tingling.
“Oh, brother Eru, what a coincidence. I’ve been looking for you all over the city. Our talk had not finished yet” Eru heard a familiar voice from a certain young man. “It’s you!?”
