Unlimited Anime Works 177: All blades return to the one true source Part 1

"You must win this..."

"I believe in you..."

"Beat him up..."

The players all prayed as Feng Yu Chen faced down Kayaba, the final boss of the game.

"Yes, come, you shall all bear witness to my strongest sword skill. I am going to beat Kayaba with this skill and free us all from this prison of a game..."

Feng Yu Chen opened the door to the boss room.

"Wait."

Asuna glomped Feng Yu Chen before giving him a kiss...

"You just got a kiss from the goddess of victory, you must win and come back alive. Once you win, we will get hitched in real life."

Asuna blushed, that took most of her courage to do. She wanted to give him something to return to.

Clap clap clap

Saeko and Inori clapped in unison while the other players followed suit a few seconds later.

"M-me too, Yui also wants to give papa the kiss of victory."

Yui pulled Feng Yu Chen down before pecking him on the cheek.

"Nn, good girl."

Feng Yu Chen rubbed Yui's head.

Feng Yu Chen entered the boss room only to be greeted by a long red carpet that reminded him of the stud used by Kayaba back in the Knights of Blood Oath's HQ. Kayaba is also dressed in the distinct KoB uniform of white and red motives.

Apparently, he wants to duel Feng Yu Chen to death. It will be a duel between captains.

Clap clap clap

Kayaba got down from his boss throne. He clapped as he greeted Feng Yu Chen.

"Welcome to the final floor, captain of the Wings of Freedom, I have been waiting for you."

"Yeah, sure, what is up with the player guild room decor by the way? Such a bad taste to duel me in your capacity as a fake player despite being a GM. Do you want me to call you the last boss or the captain of the KoBs?"

"Call me by my captain alias, Heathcliff. I liked that role. For the purpose of this duel, it couldn't be any more apt. I am looking forward to our final fight. I hope you prepared the strongest sword skill. Let us begin, I already removed my invulnerability. However, I must warn you, I gave myself massive stat boosts to fit my role as the final boss. It will be truly epic if you can defeat me."

Heathcliff chuckled.

"Now, let us not waste any more words. Just because you gave yourself massive stat boosts doesn't mean you will win. There are miracles and I will be the one to show you one of those miracles."

Feng Yu Chen brought out his Sinful Blade. In an instant, he disappeared to unleash a lightning-fast slash.

"Hmph."

Heathcliff tried to block the slash.

But, Feng Yu Chen disappeared once more. This time he appeared behind Heathcliff to unleash a backstab.

Heathcliff used his final-boss speed to quickly shift his shield back.

Clang

Heathcliff blocked that quick draw with his System-assisted shield block.

"That's cheating, how can he change his shield's direction without moving?"

"That is so low, how is he supposed to win?"

"Man, that's OP."

"..."

The players can see Heathcliff's skills were far inferior compared to Feng Yu Chen's. He only blocked because he used the system's auto-homing to block.

"He is already using that skill."

Kirito mused out loud. Heathcliff wanted to push Feng Yu Chen into using his miraculous sword skill.

He will not barge until Feng Yu Chen does that.

Feng Yu Chen raised his speed. His figures flashed as Heathcliff responded with a golden barrier that gave him all-encompassing defense. This defense is already close to invulnerability.

"How is anyone supposed to beat that? That is just invulnerability with another look!"

The players cried out in outrage. Feng Yu Chen is already performing at phenomenal levels. Heathcliff is blocking slashes faster than his own perception can keep up. What does one call that besides cheating?

"What's wrong? Do you think speed alone is enough to defeat me? Show me more of your skills... Take out that miraculous sword skill you mentioned."

Heathcliff taunted him.

"Fine, you're about to get what you wished for."

Feng Yu Chen threw his Sinful Blade away. With a few rapid taps, he took to the sky. He also showcased his superhuman ability to prolong airtime.

"Spiral Sword Slash? That's not going to work, I already devised a counter-strategy."

Heathcliff raised his shield and increased his golden barrier threefold.

"You're wrong..."

Feng Yu Chen grinned. He took out two Dark Repulsers...

"The Dual Blades?"

Heathcliff guessed.

Wrong again

Feng Yu Chen threw the two swords into the ground near Heathcliff.

Then...

He took out two more blades and did the same.

Stab stab stab stab

He switched up his tactic, this time, he made his blades float in midair. No, he forced the blades to balance on top of the embedded swords in the ground. 6 pairs of swords formed a circle around Heathcliff.

"Oh, what's this?"

Heathcliff didn't think Feng Yu Chen arranged the blades neatly like that for no reason. Why does he need a dozen demonic swords? This is starting to look like fun.
