Everyone was shaken by the attack that had occurred, they couldn't have imagined it would come.

Things!!!

The battlefield still feels so hot, the two sides have different strengths. The troops currently fighting were armies of great strength.

In the southern part of the Minai Kingdom has been known for their great power that is able to shake the world, while the western part is an army with a great power that is quite feared called Gladium.

The two kingdoms each had such great power that they were considered the most powerful kingdoms in history.

Right now a man was standing looking at the battlefield.

In the eastern part of Minai has received a massive attack that occurred due to the Gladium.

Immediately the leader of the kingdom of Gladium intervened to defeat that kingdom.

"This can't be allowed!" Inside the castle a man in white armor had been muttering annoyance. "Why did the kingdom have to attack when it's not in a good condition!"

Indeed, during these two months Minai Kingdom has continued to receive attacks from various regions, the appearance of Gladium has caused the Minai Kingdom to be on the verge of collapse.

"Master Clovis there is someone want to meet you!"

Clovis replied, "Who?"

"I don't know, but he has a message from the other side!"

Clovis's eyes bulged violently, this was not a good sign for him. "Okay, I'll see him!"

A man stood in front of the door staring intently, when the door was opened Clovis had come out.

The huge aura radiating from his body was terrifying enough, Clovis had already put himself in a stance ready to unleash a death slash. He knew that the strength of everyone from Gladium could not be underestimated.

"Who are you? What brought you here?" asked Clovis in a cold tone.

"Calm down, I'm only here as the messenger from my leader! I want to deliver this letter, and you better read it carefully!"

The scroll was given to him by the man, and then he fled from there with a power capable of making him disappear in the blink of an eye.

Clovis was tensed to read the letter. Slowly he looked at inside of the letter. "Uh… this…!" His eyes bulged.

***

The man who had delivered the scroll had returned to its leader who was a cold-faced man with sharp eyes.

"Master, I have returned to inform you that the letter has been delivered successfully!"

"Good, now we just have to wait for the royal side to respond!" His eyes emitted a terrifying aura.

Tsurugi is a man who leads the Kingdom of Gladium, a person who is famous for his great strength. He had conquered many territories for the sole purpose of subjugating all regions and being under his control.

Tsurugi is not a man who has a cruel nature, but he has been considered a demon by some people because of his great power that is feared by everyone.

Nowadays all regions regard him as the incarnation of the devil, but for some creatures he is actually someone who has the power to deliver justice.

The letter that Tsurugi gave had reached King Barnard, Clovis himself came to the man.

The man with a thick beard on his face and having a fairly large build was looking at Clovis with a piercing gaze.

"Your Majesty, please forgive this servant for coming!" Clovis fell to his knees in front of Barnard.

"What's the matter Clovis, it seems you have an urgent need to dare to leave the territory you are supposed to guard!"

"Sorry, right now there the war has been stopped until you answer what I bring!"

Barnard nodded towards the maid there to bring the scroll.

Arriving in Barnard's hands, the scroll was immediately opened by him. "Uh!" Instantly squeezed that scroll with a face that turned angry. "That bastard man, he actually dared to do this just to make himself a greater person! Alright, I'll prove to him how strong I am!"

The contents of the scroll were a challenge to Barnard to duel against Tsurugi. Whoever loses will have to acknowledge the sovereignty of the victorious kingdoms, it also says that only those who have the attitude of a warrior dare to make big decisions.

Barnard immediately sent a reply letter to Tsurugi.

"Heheh... it's a great man, he dares to accept what I'm going to do!" said Tsurugi with a smirk.

A one-on-one duel was held in front of the vast field belonging to the front royal fort, there both sides had gathered to see who would win the battle.

Barnard advanced along with his favorite horse as well as Tsurugi who spurred the horse for a few steps.

They then got down and started to get closer to each other.

"I didn't expect you to dare to send a letter like that brat!" Barnard had shown emotion booming from the expression on his face.

"Hehehe… don't be arrogant, old man! This world has gotten too many bad things from you, now many regions consider this kingdom as an invincible kingdom. However, you must know that a kingdom will not always be victorious! Today I will put an end to what you have done for all beings in this world!"

Barnard narrowed his eyes. "You think with your power like this you can beat me? You must be self-aware, your abilities are not much more than that of an amateur soldier trying to fight a lion!"

"Lion? You can only win the war because of the support you get from your power, in fact you are nothing more than a large worm!"

Barnard's veins popped out, he was already like boiling water. "What a bastard you are, if you really have great strength then now try to prove it to me!"

"Alright, that's what I want to prove from you too! Is it only your body that is big?"

The two of them started to take out swords that had considerable magical energy, Barnard's sword had been forged through a long process. The material used contains a high level of magic so that it can destroy swords or other weapons.

Meanwhile, for the sword in Tsurugi's hand is a sword that has absorbed a lot of souls of living beings, the sword is a weapon he has to give punishment to other beings who have done anything they want.

Whoosh!!!

Barnard started to come towards Tsurugi like a bear swinging its claws at the target.

Things!!!

Tsurugi's sword swiftly resisted the attack, Barnard's impact was truly extraordinary. It looks like Tsurugi has to exert a lot of strength to hold it back.
