Even when facing Sword God Gal, Reida had the confidence to face him calmly.
As long as Reida could release the Deprivation Field, even the Sword God would have no way to deal with her.
And now, Reida had released the Deprivation Field. Logically speaking, there should be no problem.
But there was always a strong sense of threat lingering in her mind. She always felt that as long as this guy wanted to, even the Deprivation Field couldn't stop him.
Reida's eyes stared fixedly at Roa. She said in a deep voice, "Sword God, we haven't reached the point of mutually assured destruction. There is still room for negotiation between us."
Roa remained unmoved, his expression still as arrogant as ever.
Seeing Roa's expression, Reida's expression became even more gloomy.
The golden pupils, flowing like lava, became even more dazzling. Time seemed to slow down at this moment.
The fine snow falling in the air was infinitely stretched. Reida's every move was captured by Roa. The terrified expressions on the faces of the opposite knights, everything, was stretched and slowed down at this moment.
Roa moved. He took a step forward.
However, this step seemed to trigger some kind of mechanism. The elderly and decaying old woman reacted instantly.
Even in a four-times-slower state, the old woman made a fairly quick and standard counterattack.
Her long sword moved.
The long sword turned into an arc-shaped slash, attacking Roa's right arm at an extremely terrifying speed.
The silent long sword split the atmosphere, cut down the fine snow, and spread all the way to Roa's back.
Roa was expressionless. The Windpipe, held horizontally in its scabbard, was partially drawn.
Violent sword energy centered on Roa, instantly cutting off everything visible around him.
The fierce slash was also blocked by Roa's wide-ranging sword technique.
Reida's Deprivation Field was naturally not that simple.
Terrifying slashes targeted Roa, falling from all directions.
Whether it was front, back, left, right, or up and down, several sword energies erupted instantly, covering Roa's location in all directions.
Each slash was like a full-force strike from a Sword Emperor. The terrifying force almost shattered the ground where Roa stood.
The sound of slashes colliding with slashes continued. Circular sword energy collided with arc-shaped sword energy. The two quickly dissipated after exhausting each other's power.
Roa's expression had not changed at all. The long sword in his right hand was now one-third drawn. The snow-white blade was exposed, a sword whiter than snow. The long sword sealed throats upon drawing blood, which was why Gal named it Windpipe.
Roa was still approaching Reida. Reida's face darkened. Unexpectedly, the elderly woman spoke at the same speed as when Moment was not activated: "The domain of time, I didn't expect you to master this ability. It seems Gal's defeat was not unjust."
Roa, who was originally slowly advancing, trying to give the other party greater pressure, paused slightly at this moment. Roa looked at the old woman in surprise. He did not expect that activating Moment had not been able to affect the other party.
Seeming to see Roa's confusion, Reida slowly opened her mouth and said, "Within my sword domain, I can also accelerate my time, but only if you trigger my rules."
Reida's so-called rule was to make an 'attack' gesture when she activated her arcane skill.
Roa revealed a knowing expression and said casually, "No wonder you were able to unleash that level of slash. It seems I really underestimated you. But how will you deal with it now?"
Roa's footsteps did not stop; he continued to move forward.
Sword energy collided with sword energy. Roa was now less than ten steps away from the Water God.
Reida, who had fought with Gal, knew that once Roa's distance from her was reduced to within three steps, taking her head would only be a matter of moments.
The best way was to kill the other party outside of three steps.
But who could kill a Sword God-level swordsman of the Sword God Style at this distance?
Reida's brain was working quickly, but on the surface, she still maintained a calm attitude. However, the hand holding the long sword had bulging veins, and the muscles all over her body were tense. Her expression was also extremely serious.
With each step Roa took, his power became even stronger.
Roa said expressionlessly, "If you retreat now, you can still live. Continuing to block me will only increase casualties. I am not a soft-hearted person and will not let you off just because you are old. Being soft on enemies is being cruel to yourself."
Reida's originally firm expression gradually wavered. The current her was really not Roa's opponent. The fact that Roa dared to move freely in the Deprivation Field was enough to prove Roa's strength.
Even the strongest arcane skill could not stop the other party, let alone other means.
In just a moment, Reida felt a deep sense of powerlessness rising in her heart.
The difference in strength between the two was too great, too great. This could not be compensated for by differences in swordsmanship.
The man before her could not be resisted.
Roa looked at the girl standing behind Reida, a smile on his lips. He said with a smile, "That's your disciple, right? She looks very young and has a lot of potential. She has already reached the peak of Sword Saint at this age and is about to break through to the level of Sword King. Being able to reach this level at this age, her future achievements will be limitless. So, even so, are you still going to stop me?"
Reida did not say a word. At this moment, she was caught in a dilemma.
Reida had beaten the young noble boys in the dojo to a pulp when she was a child, and was later retaliated against.
Surrounded and outnumbered, she was beaten half to death. Her hands, which were the life of a swordsman, were almost cut off.
It was at that time that Darius came to her rescue.
The reason why she was here was also because of the favor she owed Darius. He asked her to be stationed in the Asura Kingdom as a sword instructor, and she agreed.
This time, intercepting Roa was not a coincidence. Darius told her that a very powerful enemy would soon come to the Royal capital and wanted her to intercept him.
So Reida had been waiting here. Reida did not expect that the enemy Darius spoke of would be Roa.
Even more unexpectedly, Roa's strength would be so abnormal that even she would not be able to stop him.
Seeing that Reida still had this unyielding attitude, the smile on Roa's face gradually disappeared, and his voice became cold.
"I'll say it again, either step aside, or die."
