CLANG!

Our swords clashed while our auras pressed against each other, and it made the Grimms even angry as my weak aura was contending against its extremely powerful aura without losing even an inch.

Though I have to say, the clash of golden and silver aura looked good; especially when they crushed the space between them as they clashed against each other.

"Try harder," I said, and its eyes blazed further as it moved its saber back and attacked me with even greater power.

CLANG, CLANG CLANG!

Our weapons clashed repeatedly; I remained defensive, trying to learn as much as possible about it.

As it won't be long before it will start to use its true power, and at that time, I will need to think more about defending than learning.

I am making both my clones for that, and if it were not for the debacle, I would have had the third clone and much greater strength with my art, but what happened had happened; there is no need to waste time crying over it.

Its attacks got stronger and stronger; I defended them calmly without letting myself in the bubbling battle spirit I was feeling in my heart.

At the fourth minute, it had suddenly stopped and looked at me seriously, with eyes devoid of any anger and hate.

"It seemed like I won't be able to defeat you without using some of my true strength," it said, to which I smiled. "You won't be able to defeat me even if you use all your strength," I said with a grin.

It did not get angry at all as I had expected it to and instead smiled, which was devoid of any mirth.

"We will see about that," it said, and change occurred; the change was no explosive, but it had exploded the space around us, as its aura turned thick as honey, holding power to ground even space to dust.

It is doing just that.

"Die!" I was watching when it attacked with a speed that was barely visible to me before it became clear instantly.

First Burst!

The power of the first released from me; it came from everywhere and filled me with strength in an instant. It did not just fill my body with power but also amplified my senses, turning everything normal again.

Its saber had reached halfway to me when I had reacted; my sword moved, not in attack, but in defense, that by the times its saber reached it, it was ready to defend against it.

CLANNG!

Its saber clashed against my tiny sword, and a shockwave swept from it just, vaporizing the space in an instant, but like always, a new one came and filled its space.

It looked at me in shock as its thick aura clashed again mine, and like before, it was not backing out even an inch.

Unlike its aura, mine did not thicken; instead, it became grainier from powdery, and as it clashed with its Grimms aura, it weakened it before swallowing it. It is happening very slowly, but not slowly enough for it to not notice.

"As I had told you, it will have to bring truly destructive power to do anything against me," I said, and its eyes flared for a moment before it attacked with its huge saber.

"Hehe," I laughed as I moved my sword to defend myself.

It is really angry as the attack is more than three times stronger than the last attack, but I do not fear it. As I had said to it, it will need to bring out truly destructive power to harm me, and this power is not enough.

CLANNG CLANNG CLANNG

Our weapons begin to clash, with each attack being at least three times stronger than the previous.

It wants to destroy me with sheer power; well, it is not going to happen, at least not with this power, and the more we fought, the more energy it would require to defeat me.

As my clones studied it, clone two had even bought an unpurified sample of its energy inside the core and now testing against various samples of energies that I had created.

At the same time, clone one was making changes in my armor, making it more efficient in processing this energy while I fought and studied it.

More than ten minutes passed, and we exchanged thousands of moves in the short exchange, but it was not able to able to make me move even an inch from my place.

At the time, I noticed one thing; its cloak, which it uses to remain undetected from the world, is reaching its limit. It could only hide till it used a certain amount of power; after it had crossed that, the cloak would break.

I am waiting for that, not because the world will crush it after it has been discovered, which will not happen, as we are powerful enough, but because it will cover it with its presence, and I need that to happen.

It did not plan to stop and continued to attack me, using more and more power with each strike, till what I was waiting for had happened.

Boom!

A muffled boom rang out as it stopped, and instead of getting angry, it grinned while the pressure of the world gathered around it, but it did not seem worried even a bit.

"Finally, I am free," It said, while I looked at it in confusion, not understanding what it had said.

"There would have been a backlash if I had broken the cloak in one swing; I had to do it slowly, and now that I did it, I could use all my power in an instant if I want to," it said.

"And you think you can defeat me using your full strength?" I asked with a smile while processing what it had said.

If I had known it would receive backlash, I wouldn't attack it with my full power and would have even slower.

I had learned a lot in the time we had fought, and I would not trade it for a backlash, which I have no doubt it would have been able to suppress till it killed me.

Now, I have quite a lot of knowledge about it and devised my strategy according to it.

"I wouldn't even need my full strength," It said back, and its aura became a thinker in an instant as it came at me with the strength to break the world.

Second Burst!

The power of the second burst filled my body, and I moved my sword to defend against it.

The real battle starts now, and it could end within a minute or in an hour; one thing is certain, I will use every drop of strength I have and even my life to kill the bastard, which is going to be a very difficult task.

As the clock had disappeared, I sensed the true depth of its power, and it kind of scared me.

If I had a choice, I wouldn't have fought it, but I did not. So, not only do I have to fight it but also kill it, and I will do it.
