From a certain standpoint, the opponent I was currently fighting was probably the most difficult opponent in the entire world.
I took a deep breath, and then… turned around and ran!
What? Did I seem like a coward? But since I couldn't win, was I supposed to wait around for death?
But, with him chasing me, even running away wasn't easy. A sharp burst of sword qi barely missed me, scratching me on the back of my neck. Meanwhile, angry roars filled with killing intent and a Whirlwind of Swords attack followed me closely.
His large black sword had absolutely no magic powers. However, his pure brute force was enough to tear through even the strongest of tower shields. His violent sword swings appeared to be reckless, but, actually, he had sealed off all possible escape paths.
"It's impossible to escape."
My honed combat instincts instantly arrived at this conclusion, so I turned around and swung my own sword.
"Clang!"
