"Clang!"
The sound of metal colliding with metal reverberated throughout the hall.
As their swords collided, cracks began to appear beneath their feet, accompanied by a resounding shockwave that spread to every corner of the hall like ripples in water.

He thought that if not for his sword and his body covered in a layer of absolute defense, he would have been blown away by his strength.
'I should be able to handle this much strength.'
However, just when he began to feel confident about his fight with the guardian, the red skull symbol on the guardian's chest hummed with a red glow, rapidly pulsating the glow towards his arms.
