Chapter 293 Chapter 293: Isn't It? ?
?After speaking, Noya charged towards Renji with the momentum of her words, launching an attack directly.
Having journeyed through the Holy Kingdom and the Dragon Nation, Renji's attributes on his panel, although still not on par with many of his subordinates like Eileen, could now be considered at the "Danger Rank" level as an Eclipse.
However, as a "Commander" template, Renji's panel attributes were only a small part of his strength. The various skills acquired from his wives were the major part of Renji's power.
Under the state of "Dragonblood Ignition", Renji's attributes were significantly enhanced. His heart thumped like an emperor's engine, roaring and beating. He focused his vision and easily caught sight of Noya's high-speed movement.
*Whoosh!*
In a face-to-face encounter, Renji narrowly dodged a punch aimed directly at his face from Noya, looking at Noya opposite him as if assessing him, Renji couldn't help but shake his head and say:
"Aunt Noya, you really don't hold back, do you? Also, could you not launch a sneak attack while we're chatting?"
"There's no such thing as a sneak attack on the battlefield, Little Renji."
Noya replied to Renji with a smile, while directly whipping her leg over again.
"Besides, I think you have a lot to say to me, right? Now is a great opportunity. Considering I'm in a good mood, I'll answer whatever you ask."
Noya was able to fight with Renji while chatting, but Renji was clearly struggling. Like now, Renji couldn't dodge Noya's leg whip and was forced to block it with his arms.
Even using his arms to shield himself, Renji only realized where Nova's monstrous strength came from after the exchange. It felt like being directly hit by a heavy hammer. Renji staggered backward several steps before barely managing to dissipate Noya's immense force.
Besides his arms being numbed by the shock, Renji's internal organs also felt as if they were indirectly hit, causing a dull pain.
Just this kick alone allowed Renji to experience the pain of those gladiators. Noya, as a warrior, was too abnormal.
But fortunately.
"What, is that all? Weren't you looking for a fight with your Auntie?" Noya did not pursue but instead arched her beautiful eyebrows, asking the slightly disheveled young man opposite her.
But the next moment, the young man responded. A strong aura burst forth from Renji once again, but this time it was not the familiar one to Noya; instead, it was a dark green light. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
A natural aura, along with the dark green light, began to envelop Renji's body, quickly forming a solid barrier around him, protecting him within.
Seeing this, Noya frowned.
The reason is simple.
Apart from significantly enhancing one's physique, Dragonblood Ignition also has another ability that could be considered abnormal.
[Blood Lock]
That is, when one receives a fatal injury, they won't die immediately but will forcibly lock their life at one point.
In games, having one point of life might not seem to make a difference from the outside.
But in reality, If deliberately disguised, there would be no difference from a corpse without any signs of life.
"Since one must go through sorrow to grow, then I am willing to create that environment for Nova, and compared to the sorrow created by others, I trust myself more. I will bring the best to Nova, even if it is sorrow."
After listening to Noya's words, Renji finally understood why Nova, as a child, was so attached to her mother.
This mother was too indulgent.
She considered every aspect of her daughter's life, even planning for the growth that comes from sorrow, intending to help Nova through it herself.
And indeed, Noya did just that, bringing the "best" sorrow to Nova.
Renji even suspected that the reason why the gladiators hated Nova so much, seeking to avenge Noya by dying in a challenge against Nova, was also Noya's doing in the background.
Seeing her mother die for her, and former comrades of the gladiators dying by her hand, made Nova fully awaken, gaining tremendous miasma power, allowing the girl to break through consecutively.
Nova, having closed off her heart, managed to no longer be disturbed by any external matters. Nova's swordsmanship also became very terrifying, surpassing Noya, achieving a truly flawless strike.
From then on, no one could harm Nova, and no one could use her anymore.
Noya, with all her might, created an arena and trustworthy gladiators, perhaps from the start, all for this day. Noya turned all her forces, including herself, into nutrients to assist Nova's growth.
Renji, for some reason, felt a sense of familiarity with this scene.
Clearly, Noya did too.
"I am very sorry to Nova, because I never asked for her opinion and turned her into the Nova I hoped for."
"But perhaps only in this way, Nova has the possibility to become 'the power to save this world.'"
"Isn't it?"
