Nameless King

Nitra didn\'t hold back, she used all the power that she had now including this spear. Before their fight would enter its last and most intense stage, she had to wound Liang as much as possible.

If she couldn\'t do that now, she would lose in the battle of endurance and speed, for Liang also had several trump cards, although he didn\'t want to use them at all.

The explosion that combined the energy of lasers and violent lightning had terrifying power. Black flames spread for kilometers from the epicenter, leaving dark streaks on the sand while the shockwaves still continued to pass through Construct World. 

The air currents caused by the explosion smashed against the protective barriers of the cities, even those that were quite far from the Tree.

The inhabitants were baffled and frightened, this had not happened for a long time, and they thought that someone had attacked them. However, all of this was just a consequence of one single attack that would destroy the one they called The Strongest One.

Even for Alucard, whose eyesight may have been the sharpest of any living creature, nothing could be seen through the thick cloud of dust and black ash particles.

\'That was very good, honestly I didn\'t expect the explosion to be so powerful... However, even if he\'s injured, it\'s still not enough! I mustn\'t stop!" Nitra internally exclaimed before thrusting her spear into the ground and taking a step back.

Energy traveled towards her hand, quickly transforming from electrical discharges into a black thunderbolt that could explode right in her palm at any moment.

Whoooooooosh.

Taking a step forward and tilting her body, Nitra threw the thunderbolt forward like a spear from behind with all her might, provoking another explosion. This one was not as powerful as the previous one, but if Liang was injured it would greatly worsen his condition and help Nitra win.

"Agh... Agh... Agh... Agh..." Nitra was breathing heavily, she needed a short break to recover. Even though she was partially a mechanism, she had a certain limit on her stamina like everyone else.

She launched a series of powerful attacks that would have easily destroyed an entire squad of the God Stage Ones. However, Nitra realized that her opponent was much higher ranked than a simple God Stage Creature.

"Oh, it looks like he decided to try something new..." Alucard muttered with a calm look, looking at the slowly rising silhouette behind the veil of dust.

Liang\'s half of his body was covered in blood, the top of his mantle was completely ripped open, exposing his muscular torso that had been involved in thousands of battles in his long life.

The blood, every drop of which could have been a treasure in the hands of a skilled alchemist, flowed downward, soaking into the soulless sand.

The only thing that remained unchanged was his sword. It was not damaged in any way despite everything that had happened and that was because Liang had protected his weapon with wind energy.

"Hah, you\'re seriously injured, but you still look so confident as if you can defeat me at any moment..." Nitra smirked, enjoying her small victory, "Your arrogance really knows no bounds!"

Liang didn\'t reply anything, he silently stared at Nitra as if waiting for her next move.

"Go!" Nitra waved her hand, "Use your the Form! Show how powerful you are at the peak of your powers!"

Wain smirked, "Not a bad tactic, she\'s trying to get him to use everything he has at once. However, I doubt Liang will go for it."

"Hmm? You and Sven, you both seem to overestimate Liang\'s strength." Marlis raised an eyebrow, "His skills are actually astounding, but he acts overly careless."

"Really?" Sven tilted his head, with a calm gaze, looking at Marlis.

"Sure. He could have taken support or tried to lure Nitra to a more convenient place to fight. However, he instead chose to fight the Progenitor of Constructs in her world. What\'s more, their battleground is right next to the Tree! Nitra has an almost limitless amount of energy here!" Marlis said confidently.

Sven and Wain exchanged glances as Wain shook his head with a mocking smile on his face.

"You\'re naive, just like I used to be before I got my memories back. You\'re smart, but your combat experience isn\'t enough to understand some simple things." Wain smirked, "Nitra used weapons and many skills that require large amounts of energy."

Wain stared at the bloodied Liang, "However, what did he use? A few sword swings? Come on, for a swordsman of his level it\'s as easy as doing a push-up once."

Marlis\'s eyes went wide as she realized how many things she had overlooked, thinking about completely different things that weren\'t really important.

"You\'ve probably realized by now that Liang didn\'t use much energy or employ any unusual skills. That\'s true, but you don\'t realize another detail." Wain said confidently while keeping his arms crossed on his chest.

"Agh...?" Marlis gave him a questioning look. Wain said exactly what she was thinking, it was as if he was reading her mind even though it was obviously impossible. She would have noticed it.

Wain grinned, "Have you forgotten what his Title is? The Strongest One! And there\'s a reason for that!"

At the same moment, Liang tightly gripped the hilt of his sword, releasing his all-consuming aura. It was red, not as thick as Alucard\'s, but much more frightening, as it could actually destroy a weak creature if it got close enough.I think you should take a look at

However, the aura was only a consequence of what Liang was currently doing. Right now, he was using all of his physical strength, the peak of which was absolutely terrifying to any opponent.

Crackle. Crackle. Crack.

There were cracks along Liang\'s sword from which a light red smoke was coming out.

"What is that...?" Nitra muttered as her mechanical eyes stared at Liang\'s sword, magnifying the images multiple times.

She could see the cracks slowly trying to repair themselves, preventing the smoke from escaping, however, as Liang tightened his grip slightly, the cracks grew larger.

Marlis was as surprised as Nitra. Sven and Wain were calm, with sly smirks on their faces as they watched what was happening and how Nitra and Marlis reacted. They were enjoying it as unlike Marlis and Nitra, they were well aware of what was happening.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!" Alucard laughed, shaking the space with his voice. He couldn\'t contain his emotions.

"Against me you didn\'t want to use this, but now it\'s time for your wrath to come out, isn\'t it!" Alucard exclaimed, with excited expression and a crazy smile on his face.

Liang continued to remain silent, and along with Alucard\'s laughter, it made Nitra very wary. The Undeads may have been the best informants of all the races, but Construct had had success in that direction as well.

However, Nitra knew nothing about Liang\'s sword having any hidden properties.

"What\'s going on...? Answer me!" Nitra exclaimed, panicking.

Liang lifted his chin, casting an arrogant glance at Nitra, "Oh, I should have put some force into it, you\'re no longer confident. You\'re quick to adjust to a situation, aren\'t you?"

Nitra frowned, pulled her spear out of the ground, and prepared to fight.

"I think you\'ve already guessed that this isn\'t my real weapon." Liang said calmly, showing her his sword covered in cracks.

Nitra nodded. She wasn\'t in the mood for conversation, all she wanted was to win, but she needed to learn more about it if she had the chance.

"Let\'s just say... What I used before was a simple scabbard... A bit of an unusual shape since it completely covers my sword, but as you can see it had its reasons." Liang glanced at his weapon.

Then, he took a deep breath, "You know, it would take a lot of force to break these scabbards, even your ten lasers or three lightning bolts couldn\'t scratch them."

Nitra\'s eyes went wide. She didn\'t know if it was true, but Liang had no reason to lie, so, such durability seemed incredible to her.

Whooooooosh.

At the same moment, Liang\'s silhouette blurred as he disappeared. He moved swiftly, so much so that even Nitra\'s eyes could not immediately notice the trajectory of his movements.

\'I see!\' Nitra exclaimed as a shadow fell upon her from Liang, who held the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands, about to bring it down upon Nitra.

Nitra reacted quickly, thrusting her spear forward. She was about to block the attack so she could counterattack later, but, something at the last moment made her change her mind.

A crack.

Electric shocks ran through Nitra\'s body as she turned into a flash, quickly moving away from the attack. As fast as she could.

Then, Liang\'s sword reached the ground.

Nitra was ready for a powerful cut that would reach the Tree Barrier, so she prepared to reinforce it if necessary.

However, the cut did not happen, instead, at the point of attack, sand began to fall, while the entire desert slowly began to shake.

Upwards, tones of sand rose up, becoming the harbingers of an explosion of energy that only occurred due to Liang\'s abnormal physical strength.

"Missed. Well, it won\'t happen again." Liang calmly said as a veritable tsunami of sand rose in the background as a consequence of his attack.
