I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

It wasn't that Veneno didn't want to continue chasing Naktowa's smile, but he was blocked by someone.

"..."

"Dimensional thief Veneno, right?" Cheng Rang looked at the man in black in front of him, "I heard that you are also a human being, and you have not even been transformed by mechanical prosthetics. It is not easy to achieve such strength... By the way ,

What is that? "

Cheng Rang asked curiously, pointing to the four-legged machine that looked like a horse's body that Veneno was stepping on.

"Auxiliary mobile exoskeleton, mountain antelope." Veneno answered truthfully, "After all, with my old body, I can't catch up with a car that has the accelerator pressed to the bottom."

His eyes were fixed on Cheng Rang, who was standing not far in front of him carelessly, with his pockets stuffed in and a smile on his face.

That guy... was obviously full of flaws, his hands were empty, and he didn't even have a weapon.

But the terrifying aura on his body turned out to be——

He didn't even have the courage to draw a knife on it... What kind of monster is this? !

Cheng Rang nodded, and then stared with interest at the black straight knife held in Veneno's hand.

[Dimensional Knife], according to Danielle's information, can cut off all matter in the world.

Combined with Veneno's dimensional sword technique, it possesses extremely terrifying lethality.

The building that was cut off at the beginning also confirmed this point.

"Vineno, how about playing with me?"

"..."

Although it was a question, it was a warning that could not be refused.

Veneno's back couldn't help but be soaked with cold sweat. He slowly said, "I don't know your surname?"

The momentum that made Veneno feel suffocated miraculously began to slowly retreat, and was taken back by the man. In the blink of an eye, a long knife with a white scabbard was held in his hand.

"Cheng Rang. Just like you, he is an ordinary person who has practiced swordsmanship for several years... Please give me some advice~"

"\u003e

"...!"

In an instant——

The blades in their hands were unsheathed at the same time, and their bodies turned into afterimages and disappeared in place. The arcs of light that cut off the invisible wind collided, and dazzling fire burst out with the sound of gold and iron clashing in the local area.

...

When the man named Cheng Rang planned to collide with him with the blade in his hand, Veneno even thought he was a fool.

The terrifying aura that could easily crush him to death has long since disappeared, as if it were an illusion.

Veneno feels that he is quite famous in HL recently. Who doesn't know that the dimensional knife in his hand can cut off all things, but he still wants to fight with him! ?

No one can defend against his own attacks!

They are only qualified to avoid this choice!

"Dimensional Sword Technique: Cutting!"

——Suffer death...

Bang! ! !

A sweet sound of gold and iron struck into my mind.

"What?!"

Veneno, who was wide-eyed with anger, even subconsciously exclaimed in disbelief.

Am I wrong?

He asked himself this for the first time.

Because of the scene in front of him, he even had thoughts of self-doubt. ——A tried-and-tested move, the dimensional knife that is supposed to cut off the enemy's weapon and life together.

It actually collided with that guy's weapon... and wasn't cut off? !

The broken blade fragments scratched Veneno's cheek, and he felt the sting only a moment later.

and.....

The pure black-edged dimensional knife in his hand actually cracked.

——My knife... is broken? !

The two sides retreated at the first touch, and Veneno looked at Cheng Rang through the gap where the blade was broken and the horn was broken.

The knife in his hand was actually unscathed...

How can it be? How can it be!

"How can it be!"

Veneno roared angrily and slashed at Cheng Rang through the air with his sword.

Dimensional sword slashing technique - secret!

"Ten-dimensional chaos!"

Ten slashes appeared in an instant, four horizontally and four vertically, followed by intersections, blocking all the frontal routes. The light of the sword cutting off the space sent a twisted scream towards Cheng Rang.

As a dimensional knife that can cut through space, due to the special material, the strength of the blade is not high, so it is easily damaged.

But the sharpness that can cut through all materials makes the fragility of its structure not a shortcoming.

But we encountered such an unreasonable thing——!

Veneno stared at Cheng Rang, who was standing with a sword in his hand, making no attempt to dodge his secret attack, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

If you have the ability, just cut off these overlapping spaces at the same time...

Otherwise, it would be torn into pieces!

Then, the man moved.

He gathered the edge of the unsheathed blade and slowly put it back into the sheath.

The severed spaces annihilated each other and tore out a dark trail, which was already close before our eyes.

——Have you given up resistance?

"A flash."

Veneno didn't see what was happening.

A ray of light burst out from the dark crack that cut off the dimension.

Is that light?

Maybe it's just a concept.

Only Veneno, who is also a top cold weapon user, can see through the essence behind that light.

The secret of the Dimensional Knife Slashing Technique that he was proud of was shattered unreasonably like dead leaves swept by the strong wind. Before he even got close, he could already feel the tip of the knife in his hand piercing him.

own heart.

The violent wind pressure broke through the loud roar of the sonic boom, tearing the top hat on Veneno's head to pieces and blowing his windbreaker.

coming--

That is death.

What... Veneno thought with a wry smile.

A man who can perform such a move would look...

Too young.

Cheng Rang's expressionless face magnified in his eyes, and Wineno, who was locked in the aura, couldn't even lift a finger.

boom! ! !

Accompanied by the strong wind - gravel, dust, and thick fog, came oncoming and slapped hard on the face.

But when Veneno opened his eyes again, he found that the tip of the knife in Cheng Rang's hand had not penetrated him, but was stuck to his throat.

You could feel the cold pain from the tip of the knife, but it didn't even cut the skin.

Convert extremely dynamic moves to extremely quiet ones.

Even with such a sharp blade sticking to the skin without hurting myself...what a terrifying control...

It only took a moment of confrontation to tell the difference.

I lost, completely.

"Who are you?" Veneno asked slowly.

Cheng Rang chuckled lightly and withdrew the long knife held at Veneno's throat.

"My name is Cheng Rang, but if I have to give you a title..."

"Probably the Sword God."

Veneno opened his eyes wide and asked as if he was remembering something: "Cheng Rang...could it be that you are the...youngest sword god in human history?"

"Probably...if there isn't a second guy named Cheng Rang here."

"Why don't you kill me?"

"Then why did you want to steal Naktowa's smile?" Cheng Rang asked him back: "Like a gangster, you stupidly sent a crime notice to HLPD. He really has the word romance engraved in his bones. What a weirdo."

"I can't help it, who made me a dimensional monster thief?"

Veneno, whose mask was shattered by the strong wind, looked like an ordinary middle-aged man with slightly gray hair, with an ancient-style monocle in one eye.

His sharp brows reveal wisdom and kindness, and the wrinkles etched by time appear on his face, like a father-like figure.

As humans with top swordsmanship, Cheng Rang was tired of the constant killings, but for the first time, he wanted to hear the story of the guy in front of him.

Chapter 15 Sage Time

The convoy quickly drove away as Veneno was stopped by Cheng Rang.

Zabu glanced back in the direction of the two of them: "Very good, he was stopped. Go straight for another seven blocks and you'll reach the Nijumon Gate Bridge!"

"Look at those stupid figures on the back, they are dumbfounded."

Cheng Rang was so strong that Zabu had never seen anyone escape from him alive, let alone see him defeated.

"Is that guy crying? He must be crying! Leo, come over and take a look!"

"ha?!"

Just as Zabreu and Zabreu were laughing at each other for throwing away their pursuers, Veneno looked over Cheng Rang's shoulder and towards the direction in which the convoy disappeared.

"I'm very grateful to have spared my life, but the reason for getting Naktowa's smile is rather complicated. I really don't have time to tell you a story right now."

"Have you not given up yet? You will die——"

As soon as Cheng Rang finished his so-called words of admonishment, the figure of Veneno in front of him disappeared out of thin air.

No, it wasn't so much that it disappeared out of thin air...it was more like the scene in front of him was being twisted and changed like a Rubik's Cube.

Cheng Rang sighed silently. The original location of the block that was forcibly spliced ​​together was several kilometers away from here.

"It really doesn't stop. It's obviously just because I'm in a good mood today that I chose to spare his life..."

A large number of tactical attack ghosts crossed the streets like an army, and appeared in front of the convoy led by Veneno.

The figure in black waved his arms like a commander, leading the attackers behind him to roar and charge towards the front of the convoy.

"What....!"
