Gracia is in a hurry because she has dropped her shield.
"Oh, you, what have you done?"
Gracia finally notices something wrong with her left arm holding the shield. Although it is not fatal because of the automatic recovery, this is a serious situation.
But it was too late, and the shield was finally released from her hand by Geld's subsequent attack.
Gracia has lived for a long time and is experienced in warfare. In terms of level, Gracia was not defeated by Geld.
However, there was something missing.
That is, the experience of fighting among the same ranks.
It is a common problem among the long-lived species that they do not have an opponent after they become strong.
Even if they are the most skilled ones like Guy, they are still inexperienced and can overwhelm their enemies only by their physical performance, so their growth rate is low. It was not easy to experience a battle against a superior opponent.
There are only a few opponents whom we cannot beat, and to begin with, we do not fight against those whom we should be wary of. Therefore, there was never a situation in which they had to fight a hard battle, and they usually ran away if they had to do so.
On the other hand, Geld never backed down.
If he had to fight, he did not run away from any opponent.
He has never missed a training session, and he is so serious that he trains for combat instead of doing preparatory exercises while working at the construction site.
On his days off, he is under the tutelage of Agera and Hakurou.
Although he does not stand out among the "Twelve Protector Kings," Geld's level has reached the realm of the very best, as he is always training.
Although his offensive skills are not yet up to par, his defensive skills are unparalleled. He had mastered all the techniques that seemed to be useful, such as the technique of inflicting damage on the enemy while defending, or the technique of accumulating damage without letting the enemy know the main purpose of the attack, as he had just shown against Gracia.
Because of this Geld had mastered all the techniques that seemed to be useful.
Geld makes a big move against Gracia, who has lost her shield.
"Khao Slash".
Geld's Meat Cleaver, clad in a hideous haki, swung down at Gracia.
"Tsk !
Gracia jumps back in panic.
Geld's movement was large and seemed to be full of gaps. Even Gracia, who had lost her shield, seemed to be able to kill Geld.
That is why Gracia did not let her guard down.
Gracia saw that the strike was a powerful blow, but it was definitely a trap to lure the enemy.
If they try to take advantage of Geld's opening and attack him carelessly, they will be cut down with a single stroke of the sword, she thought.
But no.
Geld's target was the shield that Gracia had taken down.
Geld swallowed the shield and 'Predated'.
The Ultimate Gift 'Gourmet King Beelzebub' can transform the swallowed substance into Energy.
Since Gracia's circle shield was created by Vega, its resistance is lower than that of natural mythical-grade shields. Therefore, the absorption is fast and Geld completes the 'Predation' without any problem. Geld has successfully captured its power.
Geld's scale shield shines. The shield, which is a part of Geld, has also gained performance because of Geld's enhancement.
"Oh...no way, can it reach inorganic materials?"
"No, if it has reached mythical-grade, it is natural that it has a will. The origin of this shield seems to be a fake created by someone else, but that's none of my business.
Geld explains in a matter-of-fact way.
He was not proud of his victory, but his words were significant.
Geld meant that organic or inorganic matter could be 'predated' without distinction. And even if the subject has a will, if it fails to resist (resist), it will be eaten.
A cold sweat dripped down from Gracia's forehead.
She realizes that she has lost her balance.
At this point, Gracia's defensive power had decreased drastically, and the gap between her and Geld's existence value had narrowed. And if she had been hit by the sword as well...
A moment of silence.
As if to break the silence, Gracia opens her mouth.
"Well, I guess I lost.
She says this and smiles a bright smile.
"Hmm."
Geld is puzzled, but remains defensive.
He still does not fully trust Gracia, although he thinks she is not bluffing.
Gracia laughs at Geld.
"Okay, okay. I've always wanted to experience coming back to life in this labyrinth, so give me a clean slate."
When she said that, Geld had no choice but to believe her.
"Are you sure I've won? Then there is no need for further fighting. Geld puts away his weapon. He does not like to whip the loser, so he settles the matter now.
"Well, you're a warrior. I've been defeated.
With a wry smile, Gracia accepted her defeat gracefully.
OK! The winner is Geld!
Ramiris declared victory, and Geld and Gracia left the venue.
Finally, it was Dino's turn, which Ramiris had been waiting for.
