Destroying My Own World

Chapter 115 Duel.

Sasha charged at Jeanne with the sword ready to thrust Jeanne's chest. She thought she moved fast enough that Jeanne couldn't react, but suddenly her sword was repelled by a gentle touch from Jeanne's sword. She was surprised, but she immediately swung her sword horizontally to the side, but Jeanne had already disappeared.

"That almost took me by surprise, but it seems that you used too much power that you can't handle them completely," Jeanne said and appeared right behind Sasha, and then she used the handle of her sword to knock Sasha down.

It was enough to bring Sasha down to the ground, and she had no idea what had happened. She immediately got up and swung her sword at Jeanne, and this time Jeanne clashed her sword with Sasha's sword.

The impact cracked the barriers that Shelly had created, and it surprised Elena and the others. Her barriers were second to none, even Elena had to use a lot of power to destroy one of them.

"Looks like I underestimated her power. I'll make another one," Shelly said as she pointed at her staff with a dark red jewel on top of it.

A barrier with a dark red color was formed on the outer layer, and it looked like Jeanne and Sasha were fighting inside a pool of blood. That barrier was made with a gemstone that was bathed in Mykel's blood and turned into a bloodstone. Any magic that was used or created by Bloodstone would have a dark red color no matter what element she used.

"Blood barrier. The only barrier that it took me a whole minute to destroy," Elena said as she looked at the barrier.

"This one is the improved barrier, and I believe it would take you five minutes to destroy, and I'm confident with that," Shelly replied as she looked at Elena.

"Is that so? I can't wait to try," Elena smiled as she touched the blood barrier. "But to be fair, I wasn't using my full power, so it might be faster this time," Elena pointed out.

"Then I'll make a better one," Shelly said with a huge smile.

The ground started to crack because of the blows that both Jeanne and Sasha released at each other. Shelly had to create a blood barrier underneath those two and isolated them completely.

The duel was so fierce that Anzel and the others could no longer see anything inside. They could only hear the clashing sounds and see the massive flame sparks. They were terrified of how strong both of them were, and they would have no chance if they had to fight one of them.

"I can't even see the future of those two because they moved so fast that my power couldn't keep up with it. Also, I haven't mastered the skill, so that's also one of the reasons," Anastasia said as she kept trying to use her skill to train it and level it up.

"You said that your power can predict the outcome, right? What's the chance of Miss Sasha winning against Jeanne?" Gea asked.

"After using it for a while, I thought the probability is broken or something, but after it changed, I realize it wasn't my skill's fault," Anzel answered as he kept staring at the battle.

"What was the probability?" Danny asked.

"Zero percent for Miss Sasha to win the fight," Anzel answered as he looked at Danny. "Now it's one percent," Anzel continued.

"The probability raised instead? Although it's just one percent, that means we have a chance. Or at least, she will have a chance..." Danny said and somehow he felt dispirited.

"Remember that we haven't mastered our skills, and it will help us get through anything. We might feel inferior right now, but if we just focused on ourselves, we will thrive," Anastasia said. "There will always be a sky above the sky. Take it slowly and we will reach the highest sky," Anastasia continued and tried to comfort the others.

They all nodded in agreement and just focused on the duel between Sasha and Jeanne.

Sasha was fine and she didn't feel tired at all even though she had been going all out since the beginning. She started to get used to her current power and she was no longer overwhelmed by it. On the other hand, she felt like Jeanne didn't take the duel seriously, but somehow she felt like Jeanne was trying to teach her.

Anzel was excited when the probability kept raising until it reached ten percent. If Sasha kept fighting like that, she might be able to win, and it would be the greatest thing for them.

Sasha pushed Jeanne back and stopped going after her as she checked the sword in her hand. She was surprised there were so many scratches on the blade, but it was still in perfect condition. She wondered if she kept using it the sword might survive the stress or not because she knew Jeanne was holding back.

Jeanne looked at her sword and she had expected that her sword would brittle again. She knew Sasha's sword was more powerful compared to Thor's Mjolnir, Odin's Gungnir, or Poseidon's Trident. She knew that the sword would break if she had to keep clashing her sword with Sasha's sword.

"I really appreciate what you're trying to do, Jeanne. But this isn't what I wanted," Sasha said as she swung her sword. "I don't care what's in your mind right now, but if you waste your time here, don't you think Mykel would be okay with that?" Sasha asked and stared Jeanne in the eye.

"No, Mykel would appreciate it that I do this," Jeanne answered with a gentle smile.

Sasha felt her heart skip a beat when Jeanne said that, and somehow it felt warm on her chest.

"But since you have shown your determination, I have no reason to play around anymore," Jeanne said as she sheathed her sword. "Please prepare yourself," Jeanne warned as she unsheathed the Blood Sword.

At that moment, Anzel was speechless when the probability that was ten percent suddenly dropped to zero percent in an instant. He had no idea what had happened, and he wondered if that dark red sword that Jeanne held was enough to change the situation like that.

Jeanne disappeared and reappeared right in front of Sasha as she swung her sword down at her. Sasha raised her sword, but the moment it clashed with the Blood Sword, her sword was cut in half so easily. She knew it was over when she looked down at the sword that cut her chest down to her waist.

It happened in an instant that they could only see the blood gushing out from Sasha's body. They saw Sasha's broken sword fall to the ground as Jeanne was still in her finishing stance. They were baffled and frozen still when they saw Sasha get hurt and collapse to the ground.

"I wish that we can do this another time, Miss Sasha. I hope at that time, we can fight without hesitation to kill each other," Jeanne said as she sheathed the Blood Sword.

Shelly dropped the barrier since it was already over knowing that Sasha was still in shock at what had just happened. Elena then proceeded to enter the portal with the others, they didn't even bat an eye on Sasha since they already knew the outcome.

Sasha looked at her chest and the wound was still there, but it was slowly healing up. She was shocked that she lost like that and the fact she could be hurt, also the fact she felt the pain and the burning feeling in her chest.

Gea came and covered Sasha's body immediately since Sasha's breasts were barely covered with the shirt and suit. Gea put her leather jacket on Sasha's body as Eun Soo healed the open wound and helped it heal faster.

"Miss Sasha, can you stand up?" Gea asked.

"I'm fine..." Sasha answered as she stood up and kept the jacket covering her body.

Sasha looked at her broken sword, and it slowly disappeared into thin air. She wondered if she could use the sword again since it helped her enhance her body by a lot. If not, that would be a shame since that sword belonged to the angel and if it couldn't be fixed, that would be bad.

"What are we going to do now? Should we enter the portal and check on them? We want to know what's the reason for them to clear the portal," Luis asked as he looked at the portal.

"If you do that, they will kill you, but I'm not against it," Sasha answered as she turned around to look at the portal. "I'm curious as well, but let's not do that. We can confront them later on once we are a lot stronger," Sasha suggested.

They all nodded with understanding and then decided to leave to train more.
