Shawn gathered his power in his blade again while heading to Noel. This time, it felt like the energy was acting like a huge hammer that would crush him if he dared to block it.

'This feels similar to my Everchanging Sword Style, but his power is focused on destruction.' Noel observed Shawn's flow of energy and wanted to use his unique sword style, albeit it wasn't the time yet.

He changed his strategy to focus on his fire element.

"Flame Conjuring," Noel said inwardly. The black fire was leaking out his left hand and gradually forming a palm.

The powerful fire made Shawn wary. He hurriedly changed his target from Noel to this palm.

He struck it with his power and used his Spiritual Energy to cause a shock wave to disperse the flame.

In that instant, the flame disintegrated as if there was an invisible force ripping them apart.

'As expected, it seems that his power is an invisible force…' Noel narrowed his eyes. Noel thought the reason why Shawn's energy was overbearing must be because of that energy.

Shawn was bolder than Noel. Even though he didn't know the full extent of Noel's power, he still confronted him without any fear.

This time, he gathered the energy to both his feet and hands as though he was planning to use hand-to-hand combat as well.

Noel wasn't afraid of this provocation. He used Sword Fire to cover his sword with fire.

He blocked Shawn's sword effortlessly, but Shawn's energy erupted, causing the fire to disperse.

Noel hurriedly used his control to maintain the flame's form. He then made a full swing and shot the flame to the ground.

Surprisingly, the flame began to follow its looping path and started moving around Noel. It ultimately reached Shawn's head from the side.

"!!!" Shawn widened his eyes in shock. He hurriedly punched the flame with all his strength.

*Bam!*



The shock wave occurred again, dispersing the flame.

"Hmm…" Noel continued observing him as if he was interested in that power. Although it was a unique power from the Spirit, he felt like he could imitate that power to a certain extent. It should provide a good boost to his ability.

After using the energy on his fist, Shawn hurriedly raised his foot, kicking forward. The energy from his foot shot forth, planning to destroy everything in its way.

Noel was supposed to avoid it here, but he actually stood in the original position as if he was planning something.

Suddenly, a rune appeared in front of him and blocked the shock wave.

As he originally expected, the energy suddenly dispersed like how normal Spiritual Energy scattered whenever he used this ability.

"!!!" Igor and a few others widened their eyes as they could understand what this rune meant. Although it was only a few resemblances, they felt like Noel had an ability similar to the Spirit Enchantment.

"Impossible. Have I underestimated him?" Igor gasped. If Noel was actually someone who could use Spirit Enchantment, his worth had to be reconsidered. After all, Noel had the ability to become a Master Blacksmith on top of his fighting prowess.

Richard was as surprised, considering Noel only used the Chain Bind Rune this whole time while the rest was taken care of by Rose.

It seemed he had been deliberately hiding it as their trump card.

But the moment the rune had come out, Noel's fighting style changed.

He formed another rune and shot out a few chains toward Shawn.

"!!!" Shawn instinctively moved back as if he was scared by these chains. He even gathered a lot of Spiritual Energy to it as he tried to smash it.

Surprisingly, the chain was only knocked down. It didn't even leave a down, let alone get destroyed.

Noel hurriedly used his control to take over the chains. In that instant, the chains rose to the air and started wiggling like worms.

The chains soon continued expanding, trying to capture Shawn.

The latter jumped back like how Noel escaped from his attack earlier.

"!!!" The people were shocked because it made them look like they were a hypocrite.

"Shawn?"

"Why are you taking a step back just like that?"

"Show him who's the boss, Shawn!"

They kept cheering for him while watching the battle.

However, Shawn didn't attack Noel again after that. Seeing Shawn become passive, Noel took advantage of this opportunity to launch his attacks.

Noel applied his Increase Agility Rune and Strength Blessing Rune to increase his overall physical ability. After that, he applied the Softening Rune on his sword.

Noel tried to attack Shawn's neck but was blocked by the sword.

Surprisingly, the sword began to go deeper as if it was cracking.





"!!!" Shawn panicked for a second as he hurriedly jumped back to avoid it. After all, the shrapnel could injure him, let alone the snapped blade.

As soon as they gained some distance, Shawn hurriedly checked Noel's weapon to see whether there was a mark or not.

Unfortunately for him, he didn't find anything. On the one hand, he still doubted what he saw since he had to be careful if he didn't want to die. On the other hand, Noel's sword could cut multiple Peak Level Demons, it shouldn't be destroyed easily by his own sword.

That was why Shawn realized he had been tricked. He immediately charged forward, trying to regain his honor.

Unfortunately for him, this was what Noel wanted this whole time. The moment he was only three meters away from him, the ground suddenly became soft, causing him to stumble to the ground.

"Kh." Shawn gritted his teeth while falling to his knees. He hurriedly raised his body back up to avoid Noel's attack, which really came right after.

*Clink!*

Their swords clashed again as Noel was already in front of him. He could barely block Noel's sword with his strength boosted by the Strength Blessing Rune.

"This is…" Shawn did his best to stop Noel's strength but he ended up falling short. The blow launched him away.

Shawn landed on his feet, but when he looked back at Noel, he realized he was already in front of him again, ready to kill him. Noel had already sworn that he would crush him after all.
