Chapter 667 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 667

Encrid visits Eitri the blacksmith to collect his new sword, a masterpiece featuring a Star Iron core. After a brief exchange with Eitri, Encrid heads into the marketplace, where he is suddenly ambushed by a highly skilled swordswoman. The woman attacks with incredible speed and tactical awareness, using the crowded marketplace and the presence of civilians to her advantage. Encrid realizes he is at a tactical disadvantage because he must protect the bystanders, whereas she uses the environment to her benefit. To counter her, Encrid utilizes a heightened state of rapid cognition, expanding his sensory awareness to calculate future probabilities and trajectories, a technique derived from his training with the Wave Blocking Sword. This mental strain causes his nose to bleed, but it allows him to predict her movements and force a collision course that neutralizes her tactical edge. As the battle intensifies, the citizens of the city begin to evacuate due to previous drills. The swordswoman reveals she is aware of his recent weapon change and his tactical shift. She implies that she is not alone and that others may be attacking elsewhere, suggesting a coordinated effort against the Border Guard. Despite the physical and mental toll, Encrid finds himself exhilarated by the high-level duel as the two combatants continue their rapid, high-speed exchange of strikes.
