BXBX NOVEL Chapter 59 Final Technique
Aion\'s next sword strike was a lot heavier than before, and Lexus realized why… The veins on Aion\'s hands were bulging like they were about to explode, or at least they looked like that for a short window of time… Lexus finally realized that Aion could use Inner Force to boost his power even more than he, but only for a short window of time in order not to make his body get tired even faster.
The impact pushed Lexus away, but just a distance long enough for Aion to cover with a single footstep. When Lexus stopped, Aion\'s next sword strike was already coming, and it was another simple downward swing. Still, it was fast and sharp as all the others… Lexus used his sword to block it, and the same thing happened before. He was pushed away for a single footstep distance.
Lexus noticed some dent marks on his sword and then enhanced it with that red aura before it could suffer even more damage. He didn\'t like to use the technique like that, but at least it made him feel less power when the impacts happened. That also gave him the chance to strike back since Aion\'s strikes weren\'t pressuring him anymore.
All of a sudden, Aion assumed his defensive stance when he saw Lexus\' sword speed increasing and moving toward his neck. He blocked the sword strike with the tip of his sword to nullify some of the damage on his weapon, but he still was pushed backward for several meters.
"The difference in weight is annoying… even when we have the same strength, that influences too much when he is attacking…" Aion thought. "Regardless, it doesn\'t look like he will run out of stamina any time soon, so I need to change my strategy."
Aion thought that Vangel could use those techniques a lot, but it couldn\'t be compared to the real master… as expected, Lexus didn\'t teach some of his techniques to his sons because he figured out they weren\'t compatible with them and would make them focus on them too much and ignore their talents…
When the next attack came, Aion blocked the sword strike with the tip of his sword. While he was pushed backward, at least he decreased the area of his sword that was being damaged. Thanks to Lexus, Aion learned that thrust attacks were pretty good at decreasing the power of slash attacks, so he decided to use that for a short while and use his head. However, it didn\'t look like he would have much time for that. The tip of his sword was falling apart… it was only a matter of time before it collapsed…
"I didn\'t want to use this since I have to fight tomorrow as well, but it can\'t be helped…" Aion thought.
When Lexus approached and attacked, his sword was stopped by Aion. He used the same downward strike, but it looked like something else had changed… it only lasted for a moment since he was pushed backward. However, Lexus could almost feel Aion\'s bones cracking through the swords… he pushed Inner Force to the limits…
When it comes to people fighting in wars, it is better for them to have strength for a long while. That was why the Kresnik family had Inner Force. To prevent the problems of some situations, Lexus developed an enhancement on his sword that made his stamina being consumed even faster, and by combining those two, there was that blast attack. Still, Lexus rarely used any of those techniques since he believed that he could be much more efficient by conserving his energy in long battles.
Aion followed the inverse logic since he heard of the tournament. His only goal was to win and to do so. He needed as much as power as possible to win against single adversaries. His goal wasn\'t to win wars. That is why he tried to improve the Inner Force. Instead of using it for as long as possible while increasing his strength by fifty percent or more for a few minutes, he trained it to use that technique for several seconds only, but the boost in power would be massive during those seconds.
Aion trained that technique hard for over a year, but whenever he tried that, his muscles and bones were damaged to the point that he had to stop with training for a week. He tried to find a way to prevent that, and he could only use that in the blink of an eye and on a much smaller scale than he had planned, but to do anything else… Aion just had to rely on his willpower to endure that.
Lexus was pushed backward, and before he could stop, Aion approached and attacked again. The swords collided, but Lexus was sent flying to the wall of the arena. While his hands were hurting like hell, he saw Aion\'s approach, and then he used his final technique. Lexus jumped and then used his sword as a vessel to fire all of his energy… that would be the final test of his son\'s strength…
