Chapter 61 Swordsmanship (Part 2)
Verafia’s golden eyes flickered and landed on the young man’s face.
From the moment she first met the young man, Verafia never thought he was a so-called good-for-nothing.
After all, Verafia was confident that her swordsmanship was outstanding even throughout the long river of history. However, for Ig, to be able to display it effortlessly in just a few years, how could such talent belong to a foolish person?
Moreover, if it was just about her swordsmanship, Verafia could barely understand it as her swordsmanship had been honed by the young man countless times. But just by the contact of their aura, Ig could guess that “The Moment of End” was related to the life law of Beltanan.
Even with Ig’s True Sight Eye, Verafia didn’t think it was something that could be done easily.
“Hmm, I feel like this guy made quite a bit of progress while I was asleep… Damn it, he didn’t even let me see.”
Swaying her body, which was sitting on her small, soft feet, Verafia’s round, small face puffed up slightly. She grumbled, then raised her scorching gold eyes and landed them on the black-haired young man.
Of course, as she had said before, Ig was still quite far from the Legendary realm.
After all, the Saint Domain realm alone was already the peak in the entire world. Just accumulating enough demonic power to undergo metamorphosis was enough to make thousands of people unable to reach it in their lifetime, let alone the advancement in life level and the mastery of their respective domains.
It could be said that the domain of the Saint Rank was already the limit that countless living beings could reach, representing the peak of the secular world. As for the Legendary realm, as mentioned before, the reason why it was named “Legendary” was because such a realm only existed in legends.
The Legendary realm not only required talent, but also comprehension of rules and concepts, as well as opportunities, all of which were indispensable. Even for Verafia herself, even though she had reached the peak, if she hadn’t had the identity of a goddess in this life, it would not have been possible to return to the Legendary realm in a short time.
As for Ig…
Verafia’s golden eyes were fixed on the black-haired young man.
In her eyes, Ig’s foundation and aura were extremely profound. Perhaps, the innate destiny she had with him had allowed Ig’s realm to advance by leaps and bounds. In just a few years, he had reached the Star Rank, which countless people could not reach in their lifetime, and was even not far from the Saint Domain… However, reaching the Legendary realm was by no means easy.
“Mmm.”
From the girl’s gaze, Ig could probably guess what she was thinking. However, he was not disappointed. Instead, he smiled slightly and said, “I know my own limits. I’m just curious about Young Lady’s swordsmanship.”
“Is that so?”
Verafia blinked her long lashes, her golden eyes that fell on the young man shimmering slightly, like gorgeous golden crystals.
She was just worried that this guy would rush to pursue the Legendary realm because of her, just like when he tried to force the Dark Starry Sky to possess him in the snowfield. If this idiot got into danger because of her, Verafia would feel guilty.
Hearing the young man’s words, she actually felt a little relieved.
“By the way, Ig just mentioned my swordsmanship?”
A glimmer of light suddenly appeared in Verafia’s golden eyes. She used both her hands and feet to crawl to him on the soft big bed, tilted her head slightly, and looked at his face: “Right, I suddenly remembered, that sword Ig used to cut through Hodrea’s Abyss back then?”
Yes, at that time, she and Ophi had just come out of Dylan’s domain, and the first thing they saw was that dark swordsman’s sword strike towards Ig.
At that time, Verafia almost couldn’t bear to watch. In her eyes at that time, Ig couldn’t possibly escape. But she never expected that Ig would simultaneously draw “The End” and slice through Hodrea’s “Abyss.”
“Hmm, you mentioned that it was my Sword of the End, and the swordsmanship after that?”
Verafia’s slender fingertips brushed a wisp of golden hair that fell by her ear, and her gorgeous golden eyes looked curiously.
In the past few days, Verafia’s hair had also grown a lot. Compared to the delicate and soft hair strands that only reached her ears at the beginning, her soft gold beautiful hair had already reached her slender shoulders. This made Verafia yearn for the appearance of her hair falling to her waist again.
“You mean that sword?”
Ig thought for a moment, looking at the young girl who had already gotten close to him. The corners of his mouth turned up in a smile, and he reached out to rub her little head. “Indeed, that was your swordsmanship after that.”
But her arm was gently twisted.
“Damn it, stupid Ig. Do you just want to hear me praise you?”
Verafia said angrily. In her eyes, Ig’s action was clearly teasing her, wanting her to be shy but still have to say words of praise, and then tell her?
“Indeed, I didn’t lie to you.”
Ig smiled gently, took the girl’s little hand off, and put it back in his palm. “Hordrea brought the Abyss, and in that instant, I gazed at the will of the entire Abyss. He forced me, intending for me to also draw out the Abyss… I did witness the Abyss appearing before my eyes, but at that moment, what I thought of was your swordsmanship.”
“The Moment of End?”
Ig nodded.
“Actually, when Master used me to perform that swordsmanship, it was Sister’s power.”
Rufina, who was sitting aside, made a sound. As the sword spirit of the End, she knew the swordsmanship performed through her body very clearly: “Not only does it have the darkness from the Demon King and the starry sky, but the other half is Sister’s flame.”
“If it weren’t for Rufina’s help, I couldn’t have done it,”Ig said with a smile.
Verafia was confused by the two of them. She could only bury her head and try to understand by counting her short fingers: “Hmm, the power of the Demon King and the Dark Starry Sky represents destruction and death, while my flame has the opposite attribute?”
Well, this was not difficult to understand. As the Flame Goddess, Verafia’s flame was not like Herafir’s, representing pure destruction. Instead, like prairie fire, like the flame of Nirvana, it possessed the concept of life and creation.
As for Ig’s attempt to fuse her flame with the dark demonic power, he had already tried it before in Vinash City with the “Sword of Night and Fire.”
“But what does this have to do with my swordsmanship and ‘The Moment of End’?”
Verafia raised her golden eyes and asked in confusion.

I Was The Hero, But I Woke Up as a Phoenix Princess?!
身为勇者的我竟然成了凤凰大小姐
From the travel diaries of a Phoenix Princess reborn from the inferno, chronicling her life on the road with a supposedly “useless” young hero…
On their journey, their fellowship continues to grow: a Dragon Princess of silver frost, a young Vampire Princess with eyes of blood-crimson, the Saintess of Radiant Holy Light, the noble Princess of the White Iris…
“Hmm?” Verafia paused, tilting her head as she gracefully twirled a soft strand of her fiery hair around a finger. A hint of suspicion flickered in her beautiful eyes. “Ignet, why does this sound suspiciously like you’re assembling a harem?”
“My lady, there is a saying: ‘The fish is what I desire, and the bear’s paw is also what I desire.’ A wise man knows that if he can have them both, his home will be harmonious and all his affairs will prosper,” he began, puffing out his chest with the air of a profound philosopher. “Is that not a truly beautiful thing? A… a paragon of peaceful coexistence?”
He faltered under her smoldering gaze.
“…Ahhh! It was a joke! I’m sorry, Milady, please don’t burn me! I swear my only desire is you!”
