Chapter 4121: Learning

I looked at the wound on my chest. It is long, deep, and bloody.
A few more inches and he would have had me.
Not that, his razor-sharp wind element inheritance energy isn't trying. It is trying hard, but I had sealed it, but it is attacking that hard.
"Quite good," I said to him.
"This is just the beginning," he said with a grin, and came at me once again.
CLANNNNG CLANNNNG CLANNNNG!
I defended the attack, but he attacked me again while I took a step back.
He attacked again and again and again. He had seen the blood, and he wasn't stopping. He wants more and unless he got, he will not stop.
The only other way, I could stop him is to put him down, which is easier said than done. Ripp Ripp Ripp!
I defended his attacks, till the seventh attack cut me on my shoulder. It's not as deep as the one on the chest, but it has reached my bone.
A few seconds later, another attack hit me, and then another.
Not a single one of them is at a level of the first, but their numbers are increasing, which is giving the enemy more confidence in his attacks.
I am defending with everything I have, but he is stronger than me. More familiar with the power, that I had just got a few minutes ago.
Powerful healing energies are moving around my body.
My own energies, which have grown even more powerful, and also the energies of the healing formation.
I had crafted only one prime-level healing concoction. I didn't think, I would be able to break through the absolute limit so fast.
Immediately, I asked my clone to prepare a few more of such formations.
It will take the clone from inheritance, but healing energies are important, too. They are lifesaving and the reason why I am fighting at my peak despite such injuries.
Time passed, and he continued with his intense assault. Carving my body red.
It is hard to defend against his attack. I wanted to get the help from my clones to read him, but I didn't.
Not because I don't want to. I had taken help from my clones thousands of times during the fight, but this time, I had not.
far away as possible.
It is a wise choice. I used to do the exact same thing.
CLANNNNG CLANNNNG CLANNNNG!
The change begins to appear in the battle as time passes. He could sense it, too.
His saber cuts me less and less. From several times a minute, it had shrunk to barely one and
even that happened when pushed himself or used a new more.
He has a lot of moves, and they are powerful as well.
More time passed, and his edge lessened even more. He is still on the offensive and
suppressing me, but not as much as he used to.
"You should give up. You cannot kill me," I said to him. To that, he grinned angrily.
"You might be tough, but I will you. Have no doubt about it," he replied.
"A nice dream," I said and defended.
I wanted to attack him, but I couldn't. I am not as powerful as him. I just broke the absolute
while he had been at it for years. So, it is obvious that he is more powerful.
His ego must have been hurt a lot, seeing, not defeating me swiftly, but I am sure, he is blaming that to the forbidden power.
I might be wrong, but I don't think, I am. He feels that kind of person.
Hun!
Nearly an hour passed since we started fighting when I sensed something.
It made my expressions turn bad.
'Would it have hurt it, if it had come late,' I thought, sensing the king.
I wanted to keep fighting as much as I could, but now that the king was coming. It wouldn't be
possible.
