Chapter 683: A Real Beat

When Kieran sensed the unique power, he frowned, but when facing the slashing hand blade, he didn't even hesitate .
Souu!
A half-moon qi energy wave was fired along with his kick, crashing into Mayer's hand blade .
BANG!
After a glass-breaking sound, [Blade Kick]'s energy wave with the -1 debuff was shattered by Mayer's hand blade .
Mayer's hand blade suffered a slight pause before going down on Kieran's right leg .
Ugh!
It has been a while since Kieran felt pain and it came from the spot where his leg was struck by the hand blade .
Kieran quickly retracted his kick and staggered backward .
Mayer was in hot pursuit, he raised up his right hand again and this time the aura energy around his hand got denser .
At the side of his palm, a faint image of a real long blade started to take shape .
Kieran's pupils shrunk, he had seen the scene before and was even quite familiar with it .
Back in [The Queen's Shield] during the battle with the Prairies King, when Kieran used [Sword Skill, Tiger Stance], a similar situation occurred .
Although until now, he didn't figure it out what was going on, it didn't stop him from knowing whenever such situation occurred, the skill would generate power far beyond its own limits .
Kieran instinctively wanted to retreat but the pain at his right leg robbed the nimbleness from his body movements, forcing him to tumble backward .
Still, the hand blade strike grazed Kieran's body .
Souuu!
A hole was slashed at the waist part of his shirt, revealing his abs .
The cut was clean, neat and maybe an inch deep . Blood then splashed out from the smoothly cut wound .
Kieran ripped his T-shirt off and tied it over his wound .
Although it wasn't a real bandage, -1 [Medical Treatment, Bandage] was still at Entry level, allowing him to take care of his wound while retreating backward .
Of course, it was just a simple treatment as it was impossible to reach the result of a real bandage and hemostasis balm .
Even when Kieran was stopping his own bleeding, his eyes never left Mayer .
After performing two consecutive slashes with his hand blade, it seemed like the consumption of energy was quite big as well .
Mayer was panting heavily but compared to Kieran who suffered significant damage, Mayer was still in a good shape .
Right after a moment, Mayer stepped forward again, heading towards Kieran .
He was ready to claim his victory from this friendly spar with Kieran .
Kieran frowned when he saw Mayer coming close .
The situation at hand had placed him in a disadvantaged position, the injuries on his leg and waist had decreased his strength more than 50% .
Mayer however only suffered some light damage .
Kieran glanced over the bruises on the back of Mayer's hand, his furrowed brows got tighter .
The Goddess of Victory seemed to be on Mayer's side .
Kieran felt unwilling . He wasn't a person who couldn't afford to lose but because this friendly spar represented the sub-mission and once he lost, it would mean the failure of the sub-mission as well .
From the moment he stepped into the underground game, whether was it his main mission or sub-mission, Kieran had never failed before .
He would complete them without any exception and despite not telling anyone about it, in his heart, he was quite proud of himself, or should it be, it had become his habit .
He was used to being successful in clearing missions and was unable to accept failure .
Even though failure was lingering before his eyes, he wanted to risk it and try to redeem his failure back into success!
Undoubtedly, such a habit was a scary one .
Kieran saw Mayer approaching him step by step, his brain was calculating the distance in between and his breath was trying to regulate itself .
His slightly messed up breathing was once again stabilized with [Knights of Dawn Body Tempering Art]'s technique .
The whole process wasn't that hard because it had also become a habit for Kieran .
A warm energy stream flowed out from his heart, spreading out to his four limbs and hundreds of bones . It warmed his cold body up once more after losing a big amount of blood .
His warm body was gathering energy ceaselessly all of a sudden .
Mayer instantly noticed the changes on Kieran . He wasn't mad at all but instead, he smiled .
His rigid face revealed a smile with his white teeth underneath .
