Chapter 1607 Full Strength

1607 Full Strength
This Genbu represented her Endurance for both Attribute and Five Aspects. That was why she managed to receive her father's attack without flinching.
And the Sword Saint became even more surprised when he noticed the slight crack on the stick. Although it was minuscule, it was clear that Rea gradually stepped into the realm where he had to take her seriously.
Rea took advantage of the shock to swing her sword.
The Sword Saint was forced back because he saw her sword transforming into a snake, almost biting him.
"…" The Sword Saint glanced at his clothes. Although he managed to avoid it, he realized that his sleeve was grazed a bit.
Rea smirked and charged forward with the shield in front of her. Now that there was a distance between them, the Sword Saint could finally notice the pattern on the shield.
As the name implied, the shield was actually the turtle shell from Genbu. She concentrated a huge amount of Magic Power into this shield to make sure it didn't get pierced by anyone.
Luckily, her father had yet to use his strongest attack, which could slash everything or she would have lost immediately.
She used this opportunity to close the distance between them and rammed him with the shield.
The Sword Saint took on the challenge head-on. He pointed his stick at the shield and used all his strength to stop her charge.
*Bang!*
"Kh." Rea gritted her teeth while staring at the stick. 'It couldn't break it?'
"Impressive. The strength is different from the previous one. It seems that your ability can improve your physical abilities or something." The Sword Saint smirked, analyzing her strength.
Rea didn't want to talk about her secret, so she shouted while waving her sword. "Haaaa!"
The Magic Power around the sword extended it before turning into a snake. The snake looped around the shield before going back to the Sword Saint.
Since he had seen through this ability, the Sword Saint used his left hand to grab the snake before cutting it into pieces with his hand as if that hand was formed by thousands of knives.
"What?" Rea was shocked that her ability was easily destroyed just like that.
"It seems I have to apologize to you, Rea." The Sword Saint smiled. "I was concerned about your progress this time and didn't realize I was the cause of why you were lacking in the development. If only I knew that you could grow stronger by learning from Theo, I would have done it much sooner instead of putting you in misery by making you grow the inferiority complex."
"There's no need for you to apologize to me, Father. Instead, I should be the one thanking you for allowing me the opportunity to learn from him!" Rea smirked and tilted her shield to the side, letting the stick slide on her shield.
This way, she managed to close in and thrust her sword.
"Is that so? Then, I'll give you one last lesson." The Sword Saint smiled. "I'll show you the reason people are scared of me!"
Suddenly, the Sword Saint turned his wrist around and stabbed the shield, shattering it.
"!!!" Rea was startled and instinctively ducked down as the stick almost hit her head. When she raised her head, she saw her father's foot directly in front of her.
She managed to react at the last second, putting the broken shield in front of her to block the kick. However, the force from the kick launched her into the wall.
*Bam!*
Luckily, Rea was using the Genbu Battle Armor, so her defense increased drastically, allowing her to have no injury after that attack.
"There is no reason for me to listen to you, Father. My teacher has told me specifically to not listen to anything you have to say." Rea provoked him with a sly smile as if trying to frustrate him.
But the Sword Saint simply said, "That's why I'm not going to say anything. He didn't tell you to completely ignore me, only my words."
"…" Rea never expected that her father would counter that argument with such a reason. Still, Theo never mentioned it, so her father wasn't wrong either. "You are right. Then, I thank you for your guidance in advance."
The Sword Saint smirked as he leaped forward.
Rea also did the same. Since the shield had broken, she decided to let it go before changing to another transformation.
Rea took a deep breath as a pair of red horns appeared on her head. Her hands also had a tinge of red that started spreading.
When she struck her father's stick, she roared. "Haaaa!"
*Bam!*
The collision between the stick and the sword caused a shock wave. None of them was giving up. Even Rea released all of her power in this swing while screaming to raise her own morale.
"!!!" The Sword Saint noticed the power from the horns.
"Mythical Creature Summoning, Battle Armor, Oni Form!"
She released all her strength in one moment as she raised her sword, finally knocking her father's stick up.
The Sword Saint smiled excitedly because this raw strength actually surpassed him. If she had mastered this power before fighting him, that strike alone might knock the stick off his hands. Luckily, her power was still lacking, resulting in her not being able to utilize this form's full power.
Even so, Rea wasn't sad about it. In fact, she felt proud that she managed to overpower her father for the first time. She smiled while waving her sword down.
The Sword Saint used both hands to raise the stick, blocking the sword.
*Bam!*
In an instant, the ground turned into craters, cracking here and there. The people in the house would think there was an earthquake that struck their area, even though it was actually Rea's raw strength.
*Crack!*
"!!!" The Sword Saint noticed that the crack on his stick had become larger. If this continued, Rea might be able to destroy it.
'This Oni Form represents my Strength Attribute and Breathing. My Breathing Technique allows me to release an explosive power at once, which improves my strength attribute! That's why I'm going to make you take me seriously with this, Father!' Rea shouted inwardly while exerting all her strength to destroy the stick.
"Haaa!"
