Chapter 14: Concealing ones talent and name.
Manda gave a meaningful stare at the young man whose appearance was concealed. This was the first time in his life he felt the urge to slap someones face.
If youre not going to use a sword in a knights duel then what are you going to use to fight against me? Your head? Theres only one person in this world thats qualified to say those things to me sadly hes no longer of this world
However Ji Bai didnt throw the sword away all for the sake of being pretentious. The old fogey was extremely familiar with the moves he had. If Ji Bai were to use a sword it was inevitable that it would attract some unneeded suspicion from him. Such problems wouldnt exist anymore once he threw the sword away.
Even so Ji Bai wasnt going to lie to Manda.
Your granddaddy will always be your granddaddy!
Indeed the young are truly fearless! Manda gave a cold snort. He immediately took a bow step forward. The chilly radiance on his sword was overbearing as he suddenly thrust it stabbing towards Ji Bais vital pointthe throat.
This was the Holy Flame Knights signature move The Scarlet Beheader. It was a move that when done correctly it would inevitably take the targets life. Manda wanted to make the arrogant youngster in front of him understand that there was always a bigger fish. With this being said he really hadnt planned on taking his life; As a knight acts such as harming innocent civilians were something he would never do. All he wanted to do was to frighten the young lad. As such he had made sure that his move wouldnt go out of control and could be stopped at any time.
However Manda was incomparably flabbergasted when he saw that Ultraman had zero intentions to evade his move. Like a tall unmoving mountain he loftily stood in his original spot.
How arrogant! Looks like Ill have to give you a lesson!
Manda concentrated his mind. His long sword shot towards Ji Bai like a light beam it was to the point that he could feel the sword glittering. It was as if it could easily penetrate him in the next moment.
Manda knew that he was completely defeated yet he was unwilling very unwilling to acknowledge the result. He just couldnt understand how and why he lost.
He had not suffered such a crushing defeat since that person passed away
His fast-exhausting strength could no longer mask the unwillingness that Manda harbored. Even though this was the case his actions were now unavoidably sluggish while his blade had lost the sharp luster it had before. His condition was like an arrow at the end of its flight however he was unwilling to stop and continued to flail around his sword.
Ka! It was at this moment Mandas movements stopped.
His blank face looked ahead and discovered that a hand in white gloves had firmly seized his sword.
You will undoubtedly lose your life if you get distracted in a battle.
Ultramans low muffled tone caused Manda to fall into a daze. This familiar speech it made him recall his previous teacher
When he came back to his senses he looked at the Ultraman who had firmly pinned his blade in front of him before finally letting out a slow sigh. Its my loss thank you for your teachings your excellency.
Then can I leave now? Ji Bai smiled as he released the hand that was holding onto the sword hilt.
Please do as you wish sir
The surrounding trio was shocked as they watched the scene progress. They hadnt even figured out the events that transpired earlier they were especially more clueless when it came to the outcome of the match.
E-Eh? A-Are you just gonna leave like that? Hold on a moment little guy! I dont even know what name I should call you! The owner of the noodle shop who had recovered from his daze quickly shouted.
Theres no need for any thanks. If you truly want to express your gratitude then thank the faraway Land of Light! The back silhouette of the costumed man continued to walk on ahead. He had seemingly no intention to turn back.
Without caring about what the knights beside him were discussing Manda was in a daze as he looked at the leaving silhouette. It wasnt until the figure disappeared that he slowly came back to his senses.
