The leaves of the tree also fell from the tree and charged towards him at incredible speed. The leaves had become incredibly dangerous since they had become even sharper than a sword.
Even with his strong physique, he would take serious damage if he got hit by a handful of them. Thankfully, they didn't have too high a defense.
Hence, the gales of wind easily sliced them all before they did any harm to him! The same was true for the roots! Though they were stronger than the previous roots hence allowing them to get dangerous close to him!
Nonetheless, his path to the Sage Hazel was clear! At least that's what he had originally thought!!
Just a mere second later, dozens of energy beams emerged from the magic circle and charged towards him!!
The concentration of energy was a lot higher than the previous ones making them a lot stronger!
What made it worse was that the energy was not alone! They were accompanied by what looked like agile green arrows and even axes!
Their numbers only increased as time went by since the magic circle was constantly producing them!
Despite his surprise, he was quick to react. He tightly gripped his sword and tried to move even faster!
He was destined to face them since he had become a threat to her. Instead of delaying the inevitable, he decided to face them head one!!
"I shall slice them all as long as I have my sword by my side!" Myles roared.
He continued to charge forward! When he got close enough, he began to slice energy balls, axes and arrows in half by using his fearsome blade! None managed to hit him
Even though he had sliced them in half that didn't mean the danger was over. The sliced energy object tried to explode or even morphe into another shape making them very troublesome to deal with.
Thankfully, when he cut them into half a tiny amount of sword aura sweeps inside them. After entering, they caused havoc inside them.
Hence destroying their remnants from the inside, not giving them a chance to make a comeback!!
He continued to slice an attack from one another. As he sliced one attack from another, he saw that he was getting very close to the last line of defense of the mages!
"Just a little bit!" Myles grinned as he hastened his charge.
The last line of defense to the sword pavilion consists of elite mages. But they were nothing but insects in front of the mighty Grade-A fighter!
With confidence radiation from his body, he continued to charge forward! But as he was charging forward a magic circle formed below him!
Even before he had the time to react green chains wrapped around him rendering him immobile!!
The moment this happened Myles saw a powerful energy beam charging towards him! It took him long to guess that the energy beam was enough to kill him!
"I have fallen into a trap" Myles thought to himself.
He had fallen into a trap—a deadly one. Not only was he immobilized, but a powerful energy beam, strong enough to kill him, was charging straight toward him, effectively putting his life on a countdown.
Knowing he would die if he did nothing, he mustered every ounce of strength to break the chains binding him.
But it was no use; the chains were too strong, and to make matters worse, an enormous amount of mana was being drained from his body with each passing second. Hence weakening him further.
"This will not do, I need to think of another way to survive" Myles thought to himself as he looked up.
The energy beam was closer than ever. If he failed. If he didn't act fast then he would certainly die.
His mind began to race as he thought of a way to survive? In a matter of seconds, a hundred different ideas appeared in his mind. But none were feasible in this situation!
A second later a very bold yet effective idea appeared in his mind.
What if he formed sharp and destructive blades on his blades using the sword aura?
It was possible considering that he got engulfed in a thick and sturdy layer of energy. The same could be achieved without his sword!!
As for what would doing this achieve. Well his plan was very simple. He wanted to create an opening from where he could inject sword aura into the chains.
As long as he succeeded in pulling this off. He was confident that the sword aura which would sweep into the blade would take care of it from there!
Left with no option, he decided to try this out. But he was confident that it would work considering the properties of the sword!
First he tried to engulf his entire body in a sword aura which worked like a charm!
Then he began to quickly gather sword aura just below the chains holding him. There were a total of 5 chains wrapping around his body. So he gathered sword aura at 5 different places!
He looked in front of him and saw
"I must hurry!" Myself remarked
With that being said, Myles too began to hasten the gathering of sword aura. When the gathering process was finally done, the five spots beneath the chains glowed brightly.
Even before anyone had the time to react, 5 super thin chains extended out from the spots, penetrating through the chains.
A gush of sword aura traveled through the blade to chains, sweeping deep into it. Tints of blue appeared on the chains when this happened.
The blades which had penetrated the chains dissipated into countless fragments since they had served their purpose.
Even though they hadn't dealt any serious damage to the chains. They had served their primary purpose of injecting sword aura.
The injected sword aura inside caused havoc inside the chains, destroying it from within! Cracks began to emerge on the chains just a few seconds later!
With no intention of letting this golden opportunity slide by his hands, he began to exert as much as strength he could muster to break free.
Just a few seconds later, the chains holding him snapped into two. Hence, freeing him!
"Success!" Myles remarked.
He tightly gripped his sword and channeled more sword aura into it!! The sword started to glow brighter than ever signaling that he had strengthened its power!
He exerted as much as he had strength on the ground. Using the momentum he gained from the feet, he jumped upward charging straight towards the energy beam!
Yes he had jumped towards the powerful energy beam that he wanted to avoid all this time! Why you may ask?
It was very simple, he wanted to slice through the energy beam and then slice her in two. Hence ending her life.
This was a very risky move but he was confident that he could pull this off especially when he felt the sharpness radiating from his sword!!
"I can do this!!" Myles thought to himself.
He continued to charge towards the energy beam at an incredible speed causing the energy ball, arrows and roots to not be able even get close to him!!
A second later, the energy beam and he came face to face. He swung his sword with all his might when he got close enough.
Everyone on the battlefield held their breath as they waited for the outcome. Will Myles get turned into smithereens or will he successfully cut through the energy beam?
