What just happened? That was the first thought that came to Horion as he was slammed into the ground. He barely managed to lift his head.
A throbbing sensation came from his face.
"You, you—" By the time Horion managed to get to his feet, Taesan was already rushing at him.
Horion, startled, raised his sword. Taesan swung his two swords.
Kagagak!
Unlike what he'd expected, which was to overwhelm him, their Stats were nearly equal. The fact that his Health, which Soul Rank Ascension didn't raise by much, was similar, and that he wasn't being pushed back in terms of strength and speed, meant Horion's equipment was making up for the difference. His opponent was an adventurer of the 30th Floor.
It was only natural, as he would have obtained better materials and the Shops would sell better equipment.
Kaang!
The swords were repelled. They both retreated a similar distance, and Horion's face was filled with denial.
"Th-this..."
Just as Taesan had expected, he was no ordinary adventurer of the 30th Floor. Like the Guides of Sin on the 20th Floor, he was also an adventurer who had stopped at the 30th Floor.
