As soon as the MP maintaining the blade ran out, the blade of this giant greatsword would likely break on the spot, which would be extremely embarrassing. So, she could only provoke her with words to make her attack.
"..." Death Knight didn't reply, just looked at her with a serious expression.
No way?
Could she really have seen through her loss of mobility and the need for a large amount of MP to maintain the blade again? Iri instantly despaired, Death Knight, how much more overpowered are you?!
"This is where you're wrong, Yugali. You kept telling me to get serious, and now that I'm finally serious, you choose to run away. Could it be that you're scared?" With no other good options, Iri could only continue to provoke her with words.
"Is... is this fear?" Death Knight muttered to herself very softly, but Iri still heard her.
What does that mean?
"I! I'm not scared! Come on! Just you wait! I'm coming!" Death Knight suddenly trembled as if she had been electrocuted, then pointed at Iri and said.
But her tone completely lacked the confidence she had earlier, instead sounding more like a bullied neighborhood child.
"Oh... then come!" This made Iri feel very awkward, as if she was bullying her. Wasn't it Death Knight who demanded the duel?
"..." Death Knight once again adopted a stance. Although she said she was coming, she still stood rooted to the spot. So, it was a tactic to stall for time!
Ugh... this damned Death Knight!
Iri was in tears internally, almost ready to give up. After finally understanding the true use of her weapon, would the first battle end without result?
That would be too unfair to Warrior Takemikazuchi! No choice... after all, her opponent was the meticulously careful Death Knight. She should find an opportunity to take off the magic ring and destroy her with Skyfall.
Just as Iri was thinking this, Death Knight suddenly swung the scythe in her hand, and then three invisible air blades attacked Iri.
Of course... they were initially invisible, but now the arena was filled with swirling Ice Aura, so Iri could see the trajectory of the air blades.
"Myo-o Goin! Goshin... Kai!" Iri immediately swung her sword at the three air blades. With just one swing, the three air blades were immediately dispersed.
Phew! As expected of Cocytus's ultimate skill, combining offense and defense. After activating Cocytus's Myo-o Goin and entering the so-called'Seal State,' all movements within the attack range appeared in Iri's eyes as if in slow motion.
Although it was only for an instant, it was enough for Iri to react. That's why she could counterattack so quickly. When Death Knight rushed over at extreme speed earlier, she also used this to swat her away with one sword.
Under normal circumstances, she absolutely couldn't do it. And the Goshin Kai she used just now to dispel the air blades was specifically for dealing with long-range attacks.
The original effect was to use the weapon to deflect arrows and such, but the air blades didn't even have a physical form, so she could only dispel them.
Iri actually wanted to deflect the air blades back, making Death Knight suffer from her own skills, but the performance of this move wasn't that excellent.
After swinging at the air blades, Death Knight stopped moving again, just staring intently at Iri. That last attack must have been a test, right?
Testing her speed in swinging this weapon? Under the Myo-o Goin state, everything was useless!
Seeing Death Knight make no further moves, Iri once again dragged the greatsword closer to Death Knight. This time, she didn't retreat, which was a good sign... as soon as she entered the attack range, she would be within the effect range of the Seal.
