Chapter 61: The most powerful warrior
- Soul Calibur's wielder? – asked a confused Edge Master.
- That's what I said. – replied the hooded man.
- But…she doesn't wield it. How could she…?
- So you know her. Where is she?
- Why would I tell you? – yelled the master.
- I'll find her sooner or later. I'm just trying to make it easier…for both of us.
- I'm sorry, but... – the master picked up his trident, which he had left on the ground while having lunch. - ...I can't let you pass.
The hooded man smiled, showing his gold tooth.
- Really? – he said softly.
At that moment, the hooded man tried to hit the master, but he managed to avoid the blow.
- Do you think you can beat me? – asked Edge Master proudly. – I'm probably the most powerful warrior in the world. Do you even know who you are talking to?
- Of course I know…Shunsuke.
The master was shocked. For the first time in decades, someone had pronounced his true name. It was impossible for that man to know it…but he knew it.
- Who…who are you? – the master asked.
- Your murderer, unless you tell me where Chai Xianghua is.
- Yeah? Let's see it.
He didn't say any more words and jumped on the hooded man, holding his trident up high.
Surprisingly, his foe didn't offer any resistance. Edge Master's trident pierced the hooded man's chest, but he stayed still.
The master left his trident stuck in the hooded man's body, waiting for him to collapse, but that never happened.
The hooded man laughed and he quickly took the trident out of his own chest and stuck it on Edge Master's.
Edge Master briefly looked at his own weapon and he fell to the ground.
- The most powerful warrior... – said the hooded man laughing.
He didn't pick up the trident again. He just continued walking, leaving behind the master's dead body.
