Chapter 312 Testing Blades (2)
Rondo had a look on his face like he already knew how this would turn out…
But it was just too bad that he was disappointed by the result…or rather, he was completely surprised by the result.
It was certainly not one that he had expected.
As soon as his sword made contact with the blade in Zwein's hands, he found…that he couldn't push it down any further.
Rondo hadn't been using a lot of strength in the first place when he brought this blade down. He thought that with the difference in skill and sharpness of blade, he would be able to cut through it without any effort.
But that wasn't the case.
After recovering from his surprise, he started using a bit more strength to push his sword down.
But even then, he found that he wasn't able to cut through this blade in Zwein's hand.
He started using more and more strength until he was using all of his strength to cut down.
Even then, he still wasn't able to make a single dent in the sword in Zwein's hand.
I could see and feel that he was using more and more strength, but I just held the sword firmly in my hand until it seemed like his face was completely red and he was about to burst.
With that, I said, "I think that it should be clear that your blade won't be able to cut through."
Rondo had a look on his face that seemed like he was unwilling to accept this, but he didn't have a choice in the matter.
After all, the facts were in front of him and he wouldn't be able to change it no matter how he tried.
All he could do was admit that this sword was stronger than he had thought.
However, that didn't mean that he was ready to acknowledge that this sword was better than his sword.
With a snort, Rondo said, "It seems like your blade is a bit better than I thought."
Then with that, he pulled his sword back and he started to look at it carefully.
It was as if he was trying to figure out why his sword hadn't been able to cut through my sword.
I just waited for a minute before giving a cough and saying, "Shouldn't it be my turn now?"
Rondo had been lost in his thoughts, but he was immediately pulled back when he heard what I said.
Even if he was a bit rough around the edges, he wasn't someone that would use underhanded tricks.
Since he hadn't been able to cut through Zwein's sword, naturally it was Zwein's turn to try cutting through his sword.
Rondo didn't feel any fear or worry about this since he knew that there was nothing to fear.
Even if this strange looking sword was tough, that didn't mean that it was sharp.
This was a sword that he had made carefully by purifying the iron as much as possible, so it wasn't a fragile sword. He didn't believe that this strange sword made by someone who didn't even know how to forge himself would be able to do anything to his sword.
So Rondo just gave a cough and said, "It's your turn, so what about it? It's not as if you can do anything even if it's your turn."
With that, he lifted the sword up in his hands and presented it in front of Zwein.
When I saw this, I didn't say a thing in response.
I just revealed a smile and turned my sword around so that the sharp side was pointed downwards now.
I brought my sword over Rondo's sword and then asked, "Are you ready?"
Rondo gave a snort and said, "Ready for what? You won't be able to do anything to my sword."
Once again, I just smiled without saying anything.
Instead, I let my actions speak instead of using words.
With one motion, I let my hand fall down, bringing my sword down over Rondo's sword.
Rondo just had a look of disdain on his face, as if he didn't believe that my sword would be able to do anything.
The sword continued to fall until it made contact with Rondo's sword…
And then…
The sword continued to fall without any resistance, cutting right through Rondo's sword.
When Rondo saw this, his chin dropped.
At first, there was a look of disbelief on his face before he looked at the blade and looked up at me.
He looked back and forth, as he couldn't understand what was happening.
But during this time, I kept bringing my hand down at a steady pace.
Then without a sound, my sword cut right through Rondo's sword, splitting it in half without any resistance.
Rondo looked down at the two pieces of his sword in his hand with eyes wide open in disbelief.
He just kept staring at these two pieces in his hand until he finally looked back up again.
However, when he looked up, his eyes didn't go to me.
Rather, they went to the sword that was in my hand.
He looked at this strange looking sword with a strange look in his eyes.
It was a look that had a mix of feelings, but the strongest was confusion.
No matter how he looked at it, he didn't feel that this sword would be able to cut through his sword.
It just didn't make sense at all.
I just calmly waited for him to say something.
During this time, the crowd had been silent since they had also been shocked by this result.
But after taking a minute to come back to their senses, they realized what the result was and they broke out in cheers.
It was this cheering that snapped Rondo out of his daze.
His face twisted before he roared, "What is this? I don't believe that this strange looking thing can cut through one of my swords! Unless you explain this to me, I won't accept this result at all!"
After he said this, a silence fell over the crowd.
