Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

181 Swearing Allegiance to the Strong

Hiro ceased his caliber pressure and gave a self-made potion to Alan. "Drink this, it shall be as you say. From this day forward you are my representative. Your first task is to get my wives by whatever means necessary. If they ignore you tell them I will raze Partisan to the ground. Go, do not wait for us."

Upon drinking the potion Alan Srayver heal some of his wounds, enough to not die. Alan then mimicked the fist-over-shoulder salute he saw the San-Baka repeating many times. "YES, MASTER! By you will."

Like a king who couldn't be bothered with the affairs of men, Hiro turned around and leaped off the carriage and started flying towards the Lord of the desert. As he soared through the skies he saw his men at war with the monsters.

Aurum was taking a beating from a giant ant with a woman on its stomach. Aura-Mana explosions shook the ground as Geo massacred the Warrior Antlions by the hundreds. Lars covered in Astral armor once again summoned dagger 53 as they took down Jormungandr like trees in a forest. Meanwhile, a Tsugumi flew on a sword array formation that had about 128 Caliber swords.

The Sword saint treated them like an extension of her body and assaulted the ten giant spiders with them. Like a dance, Tsugumi jumped from sword to sword like platforms as she attacked the weak points of all the spiders simultaneously.

"Indeed, by training my forces I can engage in battles more than Alter Hiro did. Then that will be my focus. Forging an army capable of withstanding the coming invasion."

Hiro used Mana platforms on his feet like skates and flew himself using Spirit. Compared to Tsugumi, his method was not only impractical but looked stupid as well. Tsugumi on the other hand already left the realm of mortals and looked like a fairy from a wuxia novel.

"I should prepare a present for all of them once fun-camp ends." *GOOOOOOOOONG*

The butcher got kicked out of his musing when he saw a large mountain body charge toward him.

"Heh, anyone who sees this would think I am an absolute lunatic. Challenging a mountain to a fistfight? But I don't have an option. Only strength is respected, anyone and everyone who can see this will know not to fuck with me!"

The man then pulled a bone greatsword from his shoulder and charged it with Aura, he then charged to meet the monster intending to smash the weapon on its face, noticing his intent the Lord of the desert raised its right arm and threw a vicious punch.

Hiro who didn't believe in the Impossible charged while his body entered a slashing stance and launched to intercept the coming mountain with his skill. "[GUILLOTINE]!" however contrary to what he believed. The power of the mountain could not be defeated with just guts alone.

Like swatting a fly Hiro flew to the ground with a mighty crash. His bones and insides all ruptured as out of his pores came blood instead of sweat. Vomiting even more blood Hiro wiped his mouth as he noticed the state of his bone weapon, not only did it snap in half, but the thing changed colors from white to Grey.

"Tsk, so that's the limit then" Hiro then pulled out his two long swords and dual-wielded. His wounds all health as he cursed. "Fuck, that hurt! Mother fucker if you think this will keep me down you got another thing coming." Hiro then jumped on [Mana Molding] platforms and once again returned to the skies.

"[PSYCHO ILLUSION]!" one of his signature combo's. Hundreds of Hiros appeared all holding his bone katana as they got into an Iai stance and made a sword flash.

"[MANA SHOTGUN]!" similar to new years eve, thousands of mana sword slashes flew into the skies. They soon exploded upon impact as they assaulted the gigantic frame of the Lord of the desert. As powerful as the explosions were, in comparison to the lord's size, they only looked and felt like insect bites to the overbearing ancient.

Hiro then changed swords and returned the bone katana to his lower back as he drew the two long swords in a feat of dexterity. He landed himself on the creature's nape while he slashed the rock like an angry bear with swords covered in Spirit.

Throughout his battles, Hiro noticed all monsters naturally had a caliber they were strong against and a caliber they were weak against. This he usually started with attacks using all three. As he learned of the monster's strengths and natural tendencies he would exploit them.

The lord of the desert swatted him as one would swat a bug. Despite Hiro's insane stats he couldn't bear the power and got smashed into the monster's skin. As he fell Hiro created mana footholds in the sky and used them to maneuver in three dimensions.

When Hiro used [Inspect] there was nothing there aside from its name. He scanned the monster using [Weak Point Targeting] and he found nothing. It was like the one before him didn't exist from the battle harem system's point of view.

Hiro who grew both annoyed and being manhandled asked himself rhetorically. "What the fuck are you?!"

Suddenly an ancient coarse voice echoed in his mind.

- I am one of the twelve. I await for the sword and his scabbard. -

"Whoa, he actually replied. What do you mean twelve why are you here?"

- I came because I heard the call of Eternity. -

"Eternity? As in the Eternity Saviors? But they are not here!"

- You have it in your hand Heavenly Sword. I tried to see your power but you are much too weak to even think of attempting the trial. -

"… How do you know who I am? What trial do you speak of? What are you doing here?"

- I am the warden of this prison. Sealed in this land are beings of untold power. -

"Who gave you your task."

- The lance. -

"How do you know who I am?"

- Your blood. -

"Are you related to Kairos?"

- ... -

"If, I am the sword, what do you mean by scabbard?"

- … You are not ready. Come back when the scabbard is with you. -

The Lord of the Desert turned back and walked away as if nothing else mattered. His body began to turn incorporeal and mixed in with light as he started to vanish from existence. Needless to say, the Wolfen butcher who got beaten up and ignored grew extremely pissed.

It has been a while since someone treated him like a nobody, he initially thought the beast came due to his skills but it turned out the Lord of the Desert was not a beast but a warden instead. Angry beyond all reason and extremely vengeful Hiro looked on to see various monsters dancing with his men.

To quench his rage he leaped from his Mana platforms and jumped to use the monsters as punching bags. Suffice to say none of the giant monsters could stand against him. He even felt a little guilty as he bullied the weak while getting demolished by the strong.

But maybe it was Valorious giving him a reminder, while he may have gained some strength to lord over the humans, he ultimately still lacked the ability to fight those above him. Humbled by the experience the man took the lesson to heart and relieved his stress by massacring the remaining monsters.
