Chapter 2107 - Shields Of Roses

CLANNNG

Puh Puh Puh

I was barely able to defend myself before being sent back, vomiting heavily. I thought the internal energy would give me some respite, but it did not seem to be the case.

Before the battle began, I had never thought I would end up in such a wretched state. Though I had never doubted there might be more powerful masters than me, I never had throught any of them would be able to bring me down in such way.

I have to do something; I would not survive if things went on like this. It seemed like I had to use my defensive method; it would be my first time using it.

I had changed my defensive method; I had completely scrapped the previous one and invented a new one based on different formulas; this defensive method used my strength to a much better degree and gave me far greater defensive power than my previous defensive method.

'Shields of Roses.'

I said, and nine thick grey lines came out of me and formed twelve grey shiels around like a globe with me as its center.

These shields are capable of blocking the attacks from any direction and are connected to each other and me. They are made of my strings and weaved from designs I have seen in the Grandmasters books, and their defense is much more complete than the normal defensive methods.

The Grimm Monster remained unfazed seeing the shields appearing in front of me; its lips even quirked as it launched the devastating attack on my shield.

CLANNNG!

His saber clashed on my sword, and it felt like a colossal hammer crashed on the mountain. The power was earthshaking, and the attacked shield lighted up like a sun before radiance had spread into the other shields and all of them lighted up like a sun.

As it happened, the defenseless formed around me like foam, and a couple of formations inside me lit, and next second, the uncontrollable momentum through which I had been flying back started to slow down till I stopped on my spot.

For the first since the battle had begun, I did not feel like the tidal wave crashing on me. My shield had taken the full force of the attack, not letting me feel even a single shake; it had surprised me as I had not thought the shields would work so well.

I am not the only one who is surprised, the Violet Vidette is also surprised, but my surprise made me feel pleasant; this one has gotten me angry.

"You are full of surprises, human," the Grimm Vidette said and came at me. 

It tried to breach through my shields but was unsuccessful as they have covered me from all directions. There is no way to breach the shields even of a person as powerful as the shield; it will have to destroy them to come at me.

Once they do, it is game over for me; using the shields reduces my defenses by 75%, as more than half of these shields are made from the strings my armor. So, defensive skill is only used when I have no other choice, like now.

Its failure of passing through the shields seemed to have made the Grimm Monsters even angrier as I could feel the air around it vibrating.

I thought it would attack me directly, but no, it did not; instead, it disappeared from its spot and appeared above me before slashing its saber at me.

It still wants to attack me directly, but I am not going to let that happen. My senses have captured its attacks, and I begin to move my shields. It did not matter how much complicated its moves were; I was going to defend against it.

CLANNNG!

Its saber clashed against my shield, and it again lit up like a sun before transferring the power across the shields as they lip up like sun before started absorbing it rapidly and strengthening themselves for the next attack.

CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG

The Grimm Monsters' eyes blazed in violet light, and it attacked again this time; it did not move from its spot and just brought down its saber down on my shields, and when it did not affect the shield, it attacked again and then again.

Each failure began to make it even angrier, and it used even more power to attack my shields, but on the outside, there seemed to be no effect on it.

There is an effect; it is affecting the shields heavily, but my shields were able to hold on for now. They won't be for much longer if this bastard continues to increase the power of its attacks in such a way.

After more than twenty consecutive attacks on the single shield, it had finally stopped and looked at me. "I have fought with few masters of secret legion before and even manage to kill one, but not a single one of them was able to defend against my power such as you, most of them would run like dogs when they see me," it said.

This time, I did not say anything, just thought what it would do if it came to know that I am an Elite, not a Master as I am showing.

"Your defensive method has intrigued me but also made me quite angry, and it is time for me to get serious about destroying it and also destroying you with it," It said, and its clay like body shone gently, and as it did, even space around itself have vibrated.

CLLANNNG!

I was just watching it when I felt a powerful attack crashing on my shield; the attack was so fast that I did not even have a moment to react, and for the first time since I had brought out my shields, I have felt the effects of attacks.

Though the effects are not strong, they are going to be strong, and I will have to be prepared to deal with it.
