104 Critical Moment.

"Clang!!"

Two swords met each other, producing a force that blew away the dust and rocks in the alley.

Steve bit his lips and maintained his hold over his sword as he and the bandit pushed themselves to dominate their swords over each other.

At such a close distance, the bandit could clearly see the boy's glowing sword, which seemed to emit a pure aura.

Increasing his strength, the bandit pushed away Steve a few meters and took a few steps back with a cautious face.

Staring at the boy who was getting back into his combat stance, the bandit muttered in astonishment.

"I didn't expect that you could manifest aura....", there was a hint of surprise on the bandit's face.

Steve kicked off the ground without replying and brought down his glowing sword on the bandit.

"Cheh!"

The bandit twisted his face in anger as he felt jealous of the boy who could manifest his aura and grasped his sword tightly before blocking the boy's attacks.
