Virtual Sword God! 53 Another world of strong fighters

Novis body was starting to shiver as Daiki stood in front of him. Not because he was scared but just because of the pressure coming off the man's body. The fire inside of Ashley could be compared to a lighter, while Daiki looked as if he had a whole mountain behind him lit in flames.

Daiki was doing this on purpose. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to feel anything from Daiki. They would just see a man standing there with his bamboo sword. The fact that Novis was visibly sweating from the sight of him, just got Daiki even more excited.

Daiki was currently not wearing any kendo gear on. He just had a martial arts outfit on him. He didn't need it, especially against a kid like Novis.

Daiki started to put sword energy into his sword, and just then when he was about to attack, Novis jumped to the side.

Everyone watching was confused. They thought perhaps Novis had tried to prejudge Daiki's attack and moved too early. Daiki hadn't even moved a finger yet.

But Novis's action just now gave Daiki the biggest smile he ever had. What the others didn't know, was Daiki had put sword energy into his sword and was ready to attack. What Novis saw was an image of the sword energy hitting him and him being sliced in half. This was the same thing that Arthur had done to Lucas the first time they fought.

In the dream world, Arthur attacked using sword energy many times against Novis. Novis didn't know this but this sword energy was also the reason why Arthur was able to beat his opponents in one strike. What Novis had been trying to learn this whole time was this thing called sword energy.

Although sword energy strengthened your attacks and blade, it had a downside. The energy itself would strike where the user wanted it to before the blade actually struck. If you were facing an opponent who senses where very preceptive, then they would be able to feel this energy before the blade moved.

Daiki needed to make sure, that it wasn't just a fluke. This time he gathered his sword energy and went for a horizontal slash, towards Novis's head. Novis then ducked down as he saw the image of the sword coming for his head.

The students at the side started to laugh.

"Ha look at him he's so scared of the teacher."

"Teacher hasn't even moved, but he's moving around like a chicken."

"Shut up!" Ashley said. "You guys don't understand anything do you? Look at fathers face."

The students turned to look and were surprised at what they could see. Right now, Daiki looked the happiest they had ever seen him in his life. The only time they had seen Daiki happy was when a new student had joined, but this smile far surpassed that.

Novis was sweating badly. He had just seen himself sliced by the bamboo sword twice now. His heart was beating loud and fast and felt like it would come out of his throat any second.

"What is happening, I'm sure he attacked just now."

The difference between Daiki and Arthur was when Arthur used sword energy he would usually still attack with the sword. Novis saw these images but thought it was just him picturing the scenario before it was happening. A skill someone learnt when learning the sword. Now Novis realised that Daiki and Arthur must have been doing the same thing.

Daiki was no longer in a fighting pose which made Novis finally relax a little.

"Boy who's your teacher?" Daiki asked.

Daiki thought for Novis to be able to feel sword energy, he must have seen it before. His teacher would have to be a grandmaster and would love to meet the man.

Daiki himself had only learnt sword energy for his master who developed the skill to fight in the world war. There were not many people who were alive today who would now about sword energy.

"I don't have a teacher. I learnt everything from playing a game."

"A game?" Daiki thought that this was impossible.

This was the plan Novis had come up with. If he could demonstrate how helpful the game was to his sword skills. Then maybe he would allow Ashley to play the game.

"That's impossible!" Daiki shouted. "Don't lie to me boy, how did you see my attacks just now."

Novis could see Daiki wasn't going to just take the simple explanation that it was from a game, he had to come up with something fast.

"In the game, there are many strong warriors that I face every day. A lot of them are just as skilled as Ashley and even better than me. One day I met someone online who was powerful and preformed something similar to what you had just done. He agreed to be my teacher and plays with me frequently."

Daiki stood there silent. He didn't know much about games but even he had seen the Esports Olympics. He remembered seeing a match with Justin Bell and thought the man was very impressive. But Daiki thought that was just due to the games preprogramed skills. He didn't know that pro players actually used their own fighting styles and methods.

"This teacher of yours, can I meet him?"

"I have only met him in the game and not seen him in real life?"

Daiki was silent again while thinking.

"Novis, give that man my game ID, I would very much like to face him if possible," Arthur asked.

Arthur having watched Daiki knew Novis was no match for him. This was an opponent who was on Xin Mao and Arthurs level. If he could, Arthur wanted to fight him.

"If you want, I think my master would be happy to meet you in the game?"

Daiki had never played a VR game before so he didn't even have a headset but he was very interested in meeting Novis's teacher.

"When I get the chance, contact my daughter, she will help me meet with your teacher."

Now Novis thought this was his chance.

"Actually, that is the reason why I have come here today, I'm currently in a team at my school club. Your daughter is very talented and we hoping she could join the team?"

Everything Novis had done up to this point was for this moment.
