Jim swung the Sword from left to right and a head detached from a Guard"s body as he did so. Having Swords on their hands came to their advantage big time.Although Lia very capable, no sane person brings Fists in a Swordfight.
Several Guards tried to strike her at once, but she raised the sword horizontally above her head, holding off such impactful man power.
Seeing a lot of hands all in one place, Jim took the liberty of swinging his Sword downwards towards that Bundle of Hands.
As he did, he cut of 3 hands and heavily injured 4 others.
The 4 heavily injured were Guards who had two handed Swords while the ones who lost their hands, were using one handed Swords. They didn"t prepare for it because that attack was highly abnormal. Everything happened in a blink of an eye as if Jim was waiting for that specific moment.
The Guards fell down in pain and some fainted almost instantly while screaming in pain before they hit the ground.
"Rude of you all to try and lay a hand on a Lady."
Said Jim as he beheaded another Guard who tried to attack him from behind. Whatever Jim was doing, he was doing it well.
He has to have a history with a Sword, he is a spearfisherman, not a Swordsman, there must be more to this.
Even Lia isn"t certain of his history. She wasn"t even certain enough to trust him. She thought that he would either fight against her for Gold Coins or flee the scene.
"Nice one Jim. "A hand"!
"Haa. Glad you got it.
Careful!"
Yelled Jim as he threw his Sword at full speed towards Lia. For a second there, she thought that she will meet the tip of that Sword. But Jim aimed towards a Guard who was behind her. Hitting the Guard on his head, penetrating from one side on the other, Jim took down one of the final Guards standing.
"Nice one Jim!"
She said again but with thicker enthusiasm this time. Afterwards she grabbed the sword handle, pulled it out of the Guard"s head and gently threw the Sword to Jim where he grabbed it and proceeded to Charge to 6 more Guards who seemed to be hesitating to attack.
"Leave these ones to me."
She stopped Jim and added
"They like to **** Witches? I like to behead rapists. It is a perfect scene."
Said Lia with furry in her eyes. She couldn"t even imagine how traumatic would be to be raped by 1 man. Not to mention tens.
With the fury of her fallen Witch sisters, she raised her Sword and charged towards the Guards who were near the closed Castle gate, almost ready to flee the scene. But fair to say, they aren"t going anywhere today.
"As you wish miss Lia. Just yell if you need a.s.sistance."
She charged towards the 6 Guards and as she did, 2 of them dropped their Swords already and tried to flee through the Castle Door. All of them, dead or alive, underestimated her in the beginning. Underestimation is any warrior"s biggest flaw if a Warrior had such attribute.
Even against a bug one should keep their Guard up, that Bug could be poisonous or blessed with Demonic Powers, you never know!
However, continuing on. Those two didn"t manage to flee the scene, they were swiftly struck from Lia from behind with her Sword swung horizontally from the left side to the right, leaving them with a wound so strong that they almost got caught in half. One Guard died almost instantly and the other is screaming in pain.
What the other Guards who stood and fought witnessed, was so terrifying that out of fear, by instinct they immediately struck Lia from both sides as she was standing in the middle of the Guards. The Guards who tried to flee were in the middle. If they were to flee, they would call for more Guards or possibly even Citizens, so she had to act fast.
Two Swords struck Lia on the neck, but as the Swords met the skin, blood didn"t break out and her head didn"t get cut off either.
Although feeling a great sensation of pain on her neck, she arose from the half squatting position and stood up straight. Only to see the Guards shaking in fear.
Sharp Swords struck with all their might wasn"t able to put a scratch on her.
"What Demonic feature could this even be?" They thought while shaking.
In a blink of an eye she bent down and pushed her sword through one Guards Chest and nailed him against the door where the Sword became stuck. She didn"t bother wasting time pulling it out but grabbed another dropped from the cowards who tried to flee the scene and she quickly jumped Backwards. Sure even Swords don"t seem to be able to break the surface of her skin for some reason but the pain sure seems to last long, she doesn"t wish to receive more blows.
She felt like she would faint if she kept receiving more swings like this which felt like a thin portion of lava that was constantly being poured on her neck.
Using the Sword, she raised it slightly above her torso as a defensive pose.
She barely has any experience in Swordsmans.h.i.+p. She just observed what Jim was doing and copied him, finding it to be effective.
Seeing hands detached from their fallen Guard friends, they didn"t dare to strike all at once again even though Jim was 20 feet away. They do not want to take any chances.
Watching the show Lia put on, Jim didn"t notice at all that the King fled the Throne room and ran his way up to a tower attached to a Castle, yelling for help like a defenseless child.
More Guards rushed in the scene. What was 15 Guards before, is 50 Guards now.
The scene got even Jim in shock. Even Jim didn"t feel confident about it.
"Miss Lia. Fall back!"
