Lord Shadow



Katarina swung her sword, a starry like sword intent covers the entire area. 

The clouds opens the void, the stars above could be seen, stellar energy pour down below, it was like the Milky Way was created in one strike of the sword

Susanoo waves his sword in a slanting motion, and the sword energy soared into the heavens, piercing through the clouds, piercing through the Void, the stellar energy that is coming down was cut

Like a silent volcano that erupts silently, Susanoo burst with energy at the right moment, to break the moves of his opponent. 

Those who watched this battle could not help feel that even though these two people never called themselves swordsman, they are a swordsman and probably swordsman of the highest level

Katarina sword method could not be described with words. 

And Susanoo sword method also could not be described with words. 

Because their method of the sword is not only technique or skill. It goes deeper than that. In their sword, there is will, there is desire and there is the rules of the world.

It goes from mediocre, to masterful, to divine to transcendence. 

When they swung the sword, it is technique and skill, stabbing, chopping, cutting, slashing, normal methods and normal attack. 

When they go deeper, their intent melded with the sword, the sword then is an extension of their desires, their will. 

And the stronger the will, the stronger the sword.

And then it added the rules of the world in their strike, so the heaven would open and the earth would crack. 

When these two indescribable methods of sword clashed with each other, it created an indescribable scene

A ruthless sword. An intent to destroy and kill

Right now, the Katarina that the world sees is not the elegant and generous image that she always had

Instead, it is an image of a ruthless swordsman that has abandoned all her feeling

It is cold like the wind that blows with the snow

As for Susanoo, storms surrounds him and the coldness invades him. His hand is cold, and his heart is even colder. 

Susanoo is powerful. If he is not powerful, he would not be able to kill Null and nearly killed Maximoff.

However, he did not fight with Katarina. And Katarina, even though they are of the same realm, the combat power is different.

Susanoo could not keep up. His sword….is cold and his hand is cold and his heart is even colder.

Traces of snow falls onto his sword, undeterred by the storms around him and the snow like a dark spot freeze wherever it land on the sword. 

He swings and the spot disappears but more snows falls down. 

The thunder and lightnings strikes these falling snow but as many thunders and lightning that strikes, there is as many snow that keep falling down, turning the entire area of their battle a land filled with snow. 

But to the rest of the world, Susanoo seems to be equal to Katarina

Outsiders can't feel the changes. But how could he not know.

He lost a little. 

And now, he began to lose all the advantage.

As they traded blows and strikes against each other, he knows that if he wanted to retreat, this is the moment. If he did not get out now, he might lose his life.

But does he give up? 

Does he surrender?

No!

He also has his own pride. 

If he is facing Death Monarch, Jean or Hikigaya, he would have retreated if he could even scratch one of those three people

But Katarina is on the same level as him. 

A Disk Formation leveller. If he runs away from a Divine Comprehension leveller that is only to be expected since their realm is different. 

But, if he runs from Katarina who is on the same level as him, he could not bear it. And his pride could not bear it. 

'Again!' he shouted. 

He moves his hand, his hand vibrates, the sword on his hand controls the clouds, controls the wind and the elements of the world and the snow spot all over his sword was dispelled and the coldness in his hand, the coldness in his heart is dispelled.

eαglesnᴏνel Swoosh!

Like lightning he began attacking, ninety-nine strikes was unleashed, the sword cut everything in between even the falling snows, even the smallest atom was cut into two.

BOOM!

Swoosh!

Clang!

Sparks and shockwave erupted, sword strike scars the heaven and earth. With one sword and one style, it might seem restrictive.

But, his sword in his hand is changing freely. between attacking and defending, between bashing and cutting, between slashing and chopping

In an instant, a thousand moves was exchanged with each other. 

The snow around them and the storm was dispelled and in the radius of five feet around them, there is a zone of void emptiness. 

The space around them was teared up completely and sword marks flies around them cutting everything.

Before it cuts thing and split them into two. 

Now, wherever the stray sword strike landed, it disintegrates whatever it cuts. 

Susanoo moves are hard to see, complicated to use and even harder to replicate 

In contrast, Katarina response to the sword strike was much simple. 

Striking, stabbing, tapping, flicking, stirring, pressing, chopping, checking, clearing…all of this is basic methods of the sword.

However, in her hands, these basic sword moves is extremely fast. Her sword in the beginning could be seen. 

But now, her sword is no longer visible.

  And the speed which she swing her sword was even more difficult to see clearly. 

Even Disk Formation levellers that is watching the battle find it hard to see the trace of her sword

The sword of Katarina is no longer a sword of mortal invention but of divine origin, transcending space and time. 

This is the feeling that everyone have when looking at Katarina swordsmanship. Some even questioned whether this is still under the scope of swordsmanship.

All over the world, those who uses sword look at this battle and could not help but feel Katarina had reached some level of swordsmanship that is out of this world

As soon as the sword is released, voids opens up, the sky opens its curtain, the stars and planets above could be seen, the sky is full of wind and thunder

This fight makes people blood boils. 

The sword is so fast that only some people could see it and those who could see it could not even see it clearly.

The speed has reached a level of speed that with each swing of the sword, sonic boom erupted one after the other that the sound seems to crack the space

The accumulation of so many booming sounds fills the battlefield between these two. 

But the sound could not even travel as it was suck into the vacuum between these two. 

The battle is nearing the end. Everybody feel like this

The speed of the two of them was incredibly fast and people couldn't see their movement and they could vaguely catch collision of their sword energy

Swish!

The sound of tearing could be heard and a splash of golden blood splashed onto the white snow. 

And the winner has been decided. 

Katarina is standing alone, the wind gently caress her hair, completely white and spotless

But the red sword of hers had already been sheathed and hung around her waist again at some point

On the other side, there is Susanoo. He looked at Katarina, ten feet away from him. Ten feet for him is a small distance. A distance that he could quickly traverse in a the time for him to blink

But now, that ten feet is like the distance between heaven and earth, feeling it too boundless and untraversable. 

His sword was still in his hand and not sheathed. 

'What a sword!' he mutters. 

As he said this, he looked down at the sword in his hand again. At this moment his expression was very calm, neither unwilling nor angry.

He looks at Katarina and then he close his eyes. 

Crack!

The sound seems to be an announcement

His sword suddenly cracked and turns into golden motes of light that dissipated almost immediately. 

'What a sword!' he once again exclaimed

This time some people could see something is wrong with him. Because as he speaks, cold air seems to come out from his mouth

And then he fell down directly. A bright sword mark appeared on his neck.

And then his entire body began to froze in an unprecedented rate. It was like he was frozen from inside out. 

Maximoff appears near the battlefield now that the battle is over. 

There is still traces of the battle on him but he seems better than before

The snow that falls from the heavens also stopped falling. 

Katarina only shakes her head and turned around and walk the opposite direction. 

The pace of her walking is still very slow, but the speed is still very fast, just like when she came, her footwork, is full of weird contradictions. 

Susanoo body is covered by the snow and the Crime Alliance lose another high-ranking member of their organization.

The battle in this area ended with two deaths of powerful men. 

Null and Susanoo died. 

These two people who have great influence and power should not have fallen in this war.

But they fall nonetheless. 

Who could have thought that the Weronian Occupation, the attack of the Demon Kings from the Seresian world did not kill these great figures but now as they fight against each other, focusing their powers against each other, great figures from both sides started to fall? 

The world is silenced and everyone could feel that with the death of Susanoo, the Crime Alliance forces would have their morale weakened

Right now, Katarina had disappeared from this area but some people notice that she now appears on other battlefield. 

Just like when she came and fight Null, she is still walking.

  And with each step she accumulates her momentum.
