Not only that, he was also someone with much more experience in adventuring than everyone else here. This was not the first time Morgress had done a one on one duel before, he did it so many times when they were adventuring around the kingdom.


    Each time, it ended up with his victory. Therefore, the thought of him losing never even urred to them.


    "Alright remember, this is what you wanted. You can''t go back on your words when you lose" Morgress asserted trying to hide his fear of the incredible line up of Andromedas in the sky.


    "Rx, I won''t be needing their help to deal with the likes of you" Simon said dispassionately.


    "Heh, I like your confidence, let''s see how long you are able to maintain that" Though the demon''sment made Morgress angry, when he thought how the other party was saying all that to maintain his image in front of thedies, he thought it was pitiful,ughable even.


    There was a reason why he initiated a duel with the demon noble, from what he could tell and from the rumours going around the kingdom, the rank of the demon noble in front of him seemed to be just a demon viscount.


    A rank fit only to be the subordinates of higher ranking demons and from the aura he was releasing, it was clear that the demon was yet to reach the peak of his rank. That is to say, the demon wasn''t his match


    Compared to fighting with hundreds of golems, and the two cmity ss beasts beside him, it was much more easier to take on the demon viscount who was somehow the core of all of this.


    Morgress was by no means initiating a fight that he has no chance of winning, in fact all the fights he had ever fought were thoroughly calcted and one where he had the highest chance of winning.


    It was a simr case this time too, from his years of experience in adventuring, he had developed a sixth sense of some sort that allowed him to see through some of the potential and the level of the threat his opponent represented.


    In the demon''s case, though, he was getting no readings of danger from his sixth sense which made Morgress all the more confident in his victory.


    Simon raised his hands and on hismand, the hundreds of Andromedas looming over the sky deactivated their weapons. After that, he turned towards his subordinates and asked them to step back so that they can have the space to themselves for their duel.


    Be it Irene or the Valkyrie sisters, none of them doubted his decision and moved back swiftly.


    "You guys should move back too" Morgress did the same and told his team to move back. Though in their case, they werezy enough to even lie down on the ground and rest assured of their victory already.


    "Now there is no one to interfere between us" Morgressughed taking out his great sword from his space ring.


    Simon did the same and brought out his [A] tier Crimson Sword from his inventory. The moment each of them gripped their weapons and took their stance, the entire aura around them changed.


    While Morgress gave off a feeling of a seasoned warrior that had stormed through many battles, Simon gave off an oppressive and bloodthirsty vibe. His emotionless eyes and his sword were so crimson that it seemed like they were soaked with great amounts of blood from their enemies.


    The two of them stood absolutely still with no one moving an inch. The situationsted like this for a while when suddenly Morgess swung his word behind him deflecting and stopping a spear made entirely of mes.


    The first one to break this deadlock was Simon as he used his mastery over mes to gauge the abilities of his enemies out.


    Morgress gave a derisive smile after easily deflecting an attack that came from his blind spot. However, the next second his irises became narrowed when he felt a dozen more of the same me spears targeting him from all around.


    Clicking his tongue, he invoked his advanced thunder magic and infused it with his skills. "Great Thunder p" with a loud roar, a powerful amount of thunder generated from his sword and sted all of the me spears apart.


    Right after he finished executing his skill, Morgress charged towards his enemy, throwing one skill after another on thetter. [Great Horizontal sh], [Great Vertical sh], [Great Thunder sh], each of these attacks were powerful to cleanly bisect a huge boulder and prate through low tiers armour made of WhiteSilver.


    However, how could simple skills like these be enough to stop Simon? He stood his ground and deflected all of the attacks with his own sword skills.


    The forbidden trial ground not only helped him to grow physically and mentally, it also showed him the areas he wascking. To counter the hordes of zombies and to regte his mana so that he doesn''t run out before thest horde arrived, Simon had to learn the Sword Mastery Skill.


    Although the skill was still at Basic Normal tier,bined with the powerful stats of a demon viscount, it was still enough to face these simple attacks.


    After he deflected his opponent''s attacks, Simon unfurled his wide bat like wings activated his [High Speed Flight] to get away just in time to avoid an overhead wide sword attack from Morgress who had closed the distance between them.


    <strong>BOOOM…</strong>


    Morgress'' swordnded on the ground and destroyed a part of it demonstrating the amount of power that was imbued on it. After failing tond his surprise attack that should have been the blind spot of his enemy, Morgress grit his teeth in annoyance.


    He had to admit that the demon he was facing was quite experienced to have dodged his chain attack. If it was any of the opponents he had faced before, they would have a hard time deflecting all of those attacks from him not to mention dodge his surprise attack so easily.


    Be that as it may, his opponent must be struggling a little with his attacks for them to use their racial ability to fly and dodge hisst attack. In that case, there was only thing that needed to be done and that was to pressure his opponent even more so that they make an error in judgement leading to their ultimate downfall.


    "[Super Enhanced Strength], [Super Agility], [Super Enhanced Endurance], [Body enhancement], [Thunder Drive], [Battle Instinct]".


    Morgress activated his skills that augmented his powers even further and dished out more powerful attacks that constantly pushed his opponent on the back foot.


    "Hoh, so guild master is finally getting a little serious. Hey, why don''t we all make a bet to see how long that demon noble canst against him" Sprawled on the ground, Lombus saidzily.


    "That''s a good option, so what are the stakes for this bet?" Sable asked, simrly assured of their victory.


    Lombus gave a vulgar smile and said "How about the prices that are soon going to be ours?".


    There was no need to even ask what was the price he was talking about as every single one of them were aware of what he was thinking.


    "Hehe, interesting in that case I say he wouldn''t be able tost more than thirty exchanges. I''m willing to bet that girl that I want so badly" Sable said licking his lips. When they all looked towards who he was pointing at, they couldn''t help but make a knowing face.


    They were all aware of his fetish thus it came as no surprise to them that he would select the youngest one with the blonde hair out of all thedies standing there.


    "For me it is definitely those three, hehe I would bed them day and night," Lombus said controlling his drool and looking at the icy cold beauty and the two beside her.


    How could Irene and the Valkyries not feel their lustful gazes? Though they were sick and disgusted by those looks, they did not start anything as this would vite the rule of one on one duel that Simon had peted.


    While these adventurers were having such talks, the situation where the duel was taking ce, changed. Both the parties had disengaged from each other and opened up a wide space between them.


    "Kehehe, It seems like you have lost Sable, that demon is still standing even after thirty exchanges" Lombus made fun of his teammate but the next second he became silent when he saw his guild master suddenly resort to using one of his strongest abilities.


    What stunned him even more was that the demon who was standing still een after feeling that strong vtile energying out of his opponent.


    "Ah! I take my earlier statement back that demon is going to go down now" Lombus remarked looking at the scene. His teammates around him nodded their heads in agreement.


    The ability that Morgress was using was his advanced tier Thunder Magic which was further bolstered by his skills and his ss [Great Thunder Warrior] which provided buffs to his already powerful thunder magic.


    To his teammates the fight seemed to be progressing well in the favour of their guild master. But to the person in question who was fighting the demon, the situation looked anything but favourable to him.


    The reason behind Morgress using such a powerful attack now was because he was unable to gain an edge over his opponent even after activating all his augmenting skills. He thought that he could pressure the other party into making a mistake; however, it seemed that the one who was getting pressured was him.


    Due to him activating all those skills, his mana and stamina was being drained at a rapid rate plus against the annoying ability of flight that his opponent had, he had to exert himself even more and throw extra attacks just to keep the demon noble in check.
