The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 66 - The First Fight

Both of us stood there as the crowd quietly looked, waiting to see who would be the first to strike.

I am someone who would wait for someone to strike and then either by using my own skill or with the help of my eyes, I would strike them.

But this was a unique one.

This fight was something that I both appreciate and dread. I don’t know if I would win against my favorite character or would his overwhelming strength defeat my newfound one.

So, that’s why I didn’t want to wait anymore.

Taking my sword head high, I jumped in, bringing the fight to him. It was one of the most defenseless moves anyone would have avoided. Arthur was a quick swordsman and what I just did would give him many places to attack quickly and deal a great damage to me.

But he didn’t.

Arthur used his sword to parry my overwhelming attack as he leaped to the side and ran towards my back. As I said, he was quick, it took him only one and a half second before he aimed at my back and slashed.

In incredible precision, I swing at my back, this time losing the power and focusing on speed. Arthur’s whose attack was about to reach me, ducked just in time to keep his head.

Before Arthur could attack again, I circled around delivering a quick and strong slash at him. He couldn’t see any way that would let him escape from this attack so Arthur blocked.

He used his sword’s blunt side to stop the impact and using the force of the impact, slid away from my attack range.

’Hmm… so this is what it is to fight a swordsman in grandmaster level. He quickly dodged all of my attacks and even used my own strength to distance himself. Should have known this is going to be tough.’

’Still… it’s much more fun!’

My face might have made a creepy smile because of what he said next.

"What’s with that face?"

"What?" I touch my face and notice I was smiling.

Arthur also smiled, "That smile just proved to me that you have what it takes to become a great swordsman."

"Well, thank you for that compliment." I said turning serious, "But I can see you’re not fighting me seriously."

"What? You got to be joking, did you see how far I went away because of that attac-"

"Arthur… if you’re going to fight your opponent, then at least honor him with your true skill. I think I deserve at least that, even though we don’t know each other that well."

Arthur could feel that I was being serious with him, my eyes looked ahead at him and only at him. My words had to have an effect on him as I saw him sigh and lower himself while placing his sword at his waist.

"Alright, just don’t hate me… or try to challenge me in a duel, okay?"

I laughed understanding his meaning and tightened my grip on the sword, "Don’t worry I won’t annoy yo-" My words hung up inside my mouth as I saw Arthur vanish from where he stood.

Before I understood what happened, my perception of the world slowed to a terrifying degree and Arthur reappeared right before me again, slashing at me while drawing his sword from the sheath.

I had to say… this looked cool, dude.

Of course, I wish I wasn’t experiencing this on first person mode, but whatever, I made my own bed… now it’s time to redefine it.

Arthur slashed towards me and as usual his sword attacked me and found no defense… at least that’s what always went for him.

He’s eyes went wide as he saw my sluggish movement and stopping his sword head on.

"CLANG!"

Steel met steel, amazed eyes met amazed eyes.

Both of us saw the impossible thing happen, Arthur saw me stop his attack and I saw myself stopping his attack.

I was sure that if I had been even a microsecond late, his attack would have hit and then game over for me.

"Hee!" "Hee!"

I exhaled like a beast crazy with hunger at the guy who also took in deep breaths as he tried to understand what just happened.

"So that’s your real power, hah!" I wanted to taste more of that power, I don’t know if I would be able to stop the next one but I want more.

"It’s stupidly over-powerful, man. What the fuck was in your breast milk that made you so fast?"

It wasn’t just his speed; it was his power too. It’s miles higher than what it was before. He was strong enough to stand toe to toe with me in pure strength… which should be impossible for a small figure like him.

"How!... How are still standing?" He asked, disbelief to the core.

"Shouldn’t your question instead be; how did I block your crazy fast attack?"

Arthur didn’t ask and he’s eyes turned crescent.

’Ooh! Someone’s angry.’

Arthur backed me away and went for another attack, with the same speed and caliber. I once again saw the insanely speedy attack about to hit me and somehow breaking through my own limits, I met his sword and blocked it again.

Arthur couldn’t believe that I was able to block it again so he went with another attack, this time a fast chop. Going even faster than before.

I could clearly see how the attack was going to land and where. The only problem was that it was too fast, I could barely protect myself by deflecting it but it still drew a cut on me.

Arthur too saw his attack doing some damage but it shouldn’t have. He went much faster then before but why did it only came to a cut? Why was I still standing?

How? He was sure that Henry was a normal guy. Yes, he was a bit strange and was somewhat stronger than usual but… he shouldn’t be this strong… at least he wasn’t before?

Anger filled him quickly and he went for another attack. Making sure that this one would be the last. To finally decide who was the strongest.

But...

"I give up."
