Chapter 54: One against Many (part 2)
The sun beat down on the arid plains, shimmering off the blades of a thousand samurai. Their armor glinted like scales of a silver dragon, their banners snapping in the dry wind like hungry tongues. At their head rode a figure clad in obsidian, his eyes burning with cold fire – Their Shogun, Kashigawa their undying emperor and their empress or Shoguness Sashime the War fairy of battle.

BEGUN!!!
They charged, a tide of steel and fury. Ymir met them with the force of a landslide. Ymir's Giant sword sang a mournful song as it swept through their ranks, sending men and armor flying. Each blow echoed with the memory of forgotten warriors of the past, each parry a whispered legend of mountains tamed and rivers rerouted.
But they, samurais of the bloody moon were relentless. They swarmed around Ymir like ants around a fallen tree, their katana flashing like fireflies in the dying light. They danced a deadly ballet, their movements precise and coordinated, aiming for the chinks in ymir's ancient looking beast armor, aiming for it's weakspots.
Yet, their elegance was met with your own. You spun, the redwood a whirlwind of destruction, its splintered tip a comet carving through the night. Ymir waded through them, not with brute force, but with the measured grace of a falling star. Each swing a brushstroke painting a scene of defiance, each step a poem etched in blood and dust.
Suddenly, the Kashigawa struck. His blade, forged from a fallen star, sang a different song, a song of cold precision. He danced around you, a viper striking at your exposed ankles, your vulnerable knees. The clang of his blade against your redwood echoed through the valley, a challenge, a promise of oblivion.
Sashime armed with her spear swung it with so much elegance that it looks as if she's dancing in the wind, NO! It was beyond words to describe it was... Beautiful far beyond words could explain and actions to even materialize it's beauty.
But along with that beauty lies a deadly Beast, striking Ymir with extreme power and might as if worlds crashed down upon him and each swing of it shows the cracks of reality beyond measure.
The combined coordinated attacks of the couple along with their subordinates synchronized attack, made Ymir of blinking and even forced hold his breath just to focus.
The attack was endless, But Ymir did not falter. With a roar that shook the heavens, He brought the Great sword down in a crushing blow. The earth trembled, the air crackled shaking even the reality and beyond itself, and the Shogun and his wife was sent flying, their eyes wide with disbelief.
Silence descended on the battlefield for a little while, a single sound awakened from their astonishment to see their monarchs land safely on the ground unharmed.
Awe, shock and anger appeared on Kashigawa and Sashimes face, as they realized this giant infront of them is not even using his full power.
The two of them stood up and said, "Prepare let's do this again!"
As they charged at Ymir with absolute focus as if a hunter attacking a prey with everything they've got.
"Aid the shogun!!!" The shadow samurais roared as they turned into a flash of lightning,
Ymir smiled as he held his blade tightly as he swung his sword, like a mountain nothing can stop his blade! Absolute force, bloodthirst, indomitable will like a mountain!
No skill can match the absolute power of a giant! You sniveling ants! Fools! Be honored for you to witness my power!!! VOID CRUSHING SLASH!!!!!
As the slash appeared right before them, Reality has been split air, colors, sound, and even energy itself cannot be saved by such power leaving cracks even in the very darkness itself, like a blackhole everything in it's path began to be engulfed by the darkness from the slash.
Sashime and Kashigawa managed to get ahold of themselves they looked at each other and nodded, they held their hand and began to chant with perfect synchronization at creating a magical barrier from thin air.
They pointed their weapons forward gathering the energy around them and together they said, "By beginning of times, to the end of universe, In the depths of the cosmos, and the eons of time, let power and strength become mine! Come forth! ETERNAL GUARDIAN, TENKOURYUU IKARI NO EIEN!!!"
As the light instantly gathered in one place a figure appeared, instantly a blinding light appeared and took a form of a glowing humanoid Avatar.
Standing in place Ymir was shocked to see such existence for a split second, as his slash came closer to the Avatar, it merely pointed it's finger dispersing the slash as if it wasn't even there, while also holding both Kashigawa, Sashime and their shadows.
Ymir smiled and positioned himself once more in a battle stance.
...
Amid the chaos of battle, the roar of weapons, and the shouts of soldiers, the two humongous combatants faced each other. They moved with a deadly precision, their movements and a fierce determination to fight. The air crackled with the energy of their conflict, each blow a thunderous echo of the violence that surrounded them.
But even as they fought, a sense of inevitability hung in the air. Ymir and the samurais knew that only one would emerge from this struggle alive. Their eyes locked, a silent understanding passing between them. They were soldiers, warriors, and gods forged in the fires of combat. This was their moment, their stand.
With a primal scream, they launched themselves at each other. Blades flashed in the sun, a deadly dance of steel and blood. They moved with a fluidity born of desperation, each strike a deadly whisper of death.
As they clashed reality, time, and void around them started to crack even faster than it can recover itself.
Amidst the fight a voice appeared inside Ymir's head and it said,
[The battle of the host caused a minor damage into the tutorial's database, no worries updating the tutorial function in 10... Finished! Please continue, and sorry for the disturbance]
It disappeared once again, Ymir shook his head and continued to fight with the Avatar, a battle where it brings him joy to know that he has found a worthy adversary.
Their blades clashed once again causing ripples here and there.
