You didn't expect this, did you? I've time-traveled again!

"Please protect Natsuki-kun, and Felt, Rom-sama, and the other two."

Suoh Takeshi said softly to Emilia, then looked at Elsa in front of him and teased, "The second round begins. I wonder if big sister still has the energy to dance with me one more time?"

Although he said that, he had already prepared himself, not giving Elsa a chance to refuse.

Her light blue robe and the light blue patterns complemented each other perfectly, and the pure aura of water element on her body began to intensify.

Suoh Takeshi has made all the necessary preparations!

"Oh, buddy, you've recovered already? Okay, then I'll dance with you for a while."

Elsa licked her alluring red lips, looking at Suoh Takeshi with a delighted expression, "You must stay strong for a while, don't disappoint me too much."

"Don't worry, men's second time usually lasts a long time, I guarantee it."

Suoh Takeshi was the first to launch an attack.

"Water Breathing Seventh Form: Shizuku Ripple Strike!"

With lightning speed, he thrust his long sword straight at Elsa's chest in the shortest possible straight line!

Fast and ruthless!

He wanted to test how big the difference was between himself in his spotted state and Elsa.

Elsa showed no panic in the face of the incoming longsword. She simply smiled and raised her short sword, stopping the Nichirin Blade at the last moment before it was about to pierce her chest.

With a crisp clang, sparks flew as the weapons clashed.

They're evenly matched!

In terms of speed alone, Suoh Takeru and Elsa are about the same, but when you add combat experience, the difference becomes significant.

Even when faced with an imminent stab, Elsa remained calm and narrowly managed to stop it at the last moment.

If it were Suoh Takeshi, he might choose to avoid it because he doesn't have much practical experience.

But that would mean losing the right to counterattack and being forced to defend.

But Elsa is different. Although she is also on the defensive, she never gives up when the enemy's attack is in a slump. Instead, she will look for an opening to counterattack.

Ultimately, it comes down to a lack of combat experience.

"Wow, you're awesome, bro!"

Elsa jumped back to create some distance, and looking at Suoh Takeru, who was so different from before, she said with great admiration:

"Is this heroic posture a blessing? How wonderful to be loved by the world."

Although Elsa is a half-vampire, she has no protection.

All her current strength comes from her vampire bloodline and her own hard work, which have gradually increased her abilities.

This made her somewhat envious of those who could acquire great power without any training.

"Blessing? Well, I guess so."

Suoh Takeshi didn't intend to explain; since there was a misunderstanding, he might as well let it continue as a misunderstanding.

"Let's put that aside for now, big sister, can you do it again? This time I'm the one who's a little unsatisfied!"

Suoh Takeshi invited her to dance again.

Elsa, being a battle maniac, would never refuse an enemy's invitation.

She smiled charmingly, "Okay, let's continue then."

Chapter 074 The Curtain Falls

Elsa adjusted her posture and charged forward again, and Suoh Takeru, not to be outdone, met her head in kind.

In an instant, swords clashed and sparks flew.

In the confined space, they fought back and forth, each strike aimed at the opponent's vital points without holding back!

Even an outsider like Subaru Natsuki could see that although the two seemed to be intimately close together, their back-and-forth exchanges contained endless killing intent, as if they wanted to kill each other with a single blow.

"So strong!"

"Are those two really human?"

Felt and Rom wanted to join in and help, but seeing the intense battle, they wisely stepped back so as not to cause any trouble for Suoh Takeshi.

In his duel with Erza, Suoh Takeru gradually gained the upper hand by unleashing his Demon Slayer Mark.

Suoh Takeru had already analyzed and imitated Elsa's assassination techniques, so he knew where the stiffness in her attack intervals was, which was why he was able to gain the upper hand in his battles with her.

Gradually, Elsa's wounds began to increase.

Although Elsa's minor wounds healed quickly, it was clear that she was being forcibly suppressed and unable to fight back.

The clothes, which clung tightly to her body and accentuated her perfect curves, were torn, revealing large expanses of snow-white skin, making her look incredibly alluring.

flaw!

Seizing the opportunity, he used his left hand to strike directly at the heart of the enemy from an unexpected angle.

He slapped Elsa's wrist, snatching one of the short blades from her hand, and kicked her away at the same time!

"Pretty!"

Subaru Natsuki shouted happily.

In the previous four cycles, they went directly to the stolen goods warehouse and fought Elsa directly.

Emilia would suddenly appear during each battle, then he would be ambushed and killed while protecting Emilia, and the cycle would repeat itself.

But this time, he didn't know why, even though he was only a little late, Suoh Takeru was able to suppress Elsa.

But he didn't think too much about it; he believed that as long as he could defeat Elsa, nothing else mattered.

Victory is within reach!

Elsa was kicked forcefully into the dilapidated shelf by Suoh Takeru, but she emerged from the dust again just three seconds later.

Ding!

The short blade clashed with the Nichirin Blade once again!

"Hey bro, that hurts!"

"I'm sorry, I should have been more chivalrous."

Elsa complained to Suoh Takeshi in a coquettish manner, but her movements became even more ruthless, heading straight for his groin without any mercy.

But it didn't work!

Wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big!

Suoh Takeshi has already analyzed all of Elsa's assassination techniques and attack patterns, so they have no effect on him at all!

Thanks to Puck buying time, Suoh was able to focus on analysis and suppress Elsa.

Now is the time to defeat her in one fell swoop!

"Water Breathing Twelve Forms: Time Rain Transformation!"

A massive burst of magic instantly formed a slowing field, encompassing Elsa and thus limiting her superhuman speed.

"Water Breathing First Form: Water Surface Slash!"

A ruthless double strike!

He swung a straight slash at Elsa's neck, aiming to decapitate her and secure victory in the battle!

Although it's unknown whether the Nichirin Blade has any effect on vampires from another world, that doesn't stop Suoh Takeshi from killing her by beheading!

Whether it works or not, just give it a try!

"Oh"

Even in the face of the most dangerous moment, Elsa only chuckled lightly, and then, to Suoh Takeru's incredulous expression, took half a step back!

"What?!"

Were you serious about taking half a step back?!

No, this is my proudest swordsmanship, how could anyone dodge it?

Don't I have any pride?!

But that half step turned the strike that should have severed her head into a blow that landed on her delicate collarbone.

It made a creepy, grinding sound!

Elsa, having taken the full force of the attack, retreated from the domain with another large step.

"It hurts so much, it hurts so much! But it feels so good to be alive!"

Elsa stroked the massive, diagonal slash at her collarbone. The gushing blood stained her snow-white skin from her chest to her waist red, but with her gentle touch, the huge wound began to heal rapidly.

Finally, everything was restored to normal.

That's terrifying resilience!

Suoh Takeshi frowned and asked, "Can I ask you a question, though you may not be able to answer it?"

"what?"

"How do you operate within this domain?"

"Domain? Ah, this guy's domain is indeed very powerful. I almost died."

Elsa chuckled, first offering praise, then replied:

"Your domain must use immense magical power to erode and control the enemy's body and magical energy flow, thereby infinitely slowing down the enemy's movement speed, right?"

Unfortunately, I am a half-vampire, possessing unique energy within me. While my magic is restricted, it is not.

"Is that why you were able to dodge at the last moment?"

Suoh Takeshi's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.

Anyone would feel annoyed if their proud sword skills could be easily countered.
