Humphrey, Rhodos leaps backwards aggressively to evade the impending infiltration at a rate that slashes and rips the air.

Right in front of you… that's when you feel something cold on your back as you walk past a place about 10 cm past your body, while playing the body that came at you by waving a large sword in your right hand.

A fierce metal sound ringing above the stage.

The sword played as it was by Rhodos flies through the air as it spins in circles... and stops that movement in the air as it is pitched.

... Yes. The opponent didn't take the long sword that was bounced, but stopped the movement in the air. Keep floating about 2m above the head of Rhodos' opponent - Kerone - and point the cut toward Rhodos.

"Shit, I'm in trouble again..."

"Pfft, I guess so. This demon sword that moves freely through the air as I wish, the attack of Air Grid, has been outwitted for the first time, and I want to send a word of admiration to you."

Rodos punches his tongue at the way he wanted to play somewhere.

Air Grid. The Devil's Sword, so named, has followed Kerone's will and flew freely around the air to attack Rhodos.

I wonder if he's fallen head-on from the top, and just before he collides with the stage, he rises again and his cuttoe jumps.

Further, he hits Rodos as he rotates, and the patterned part flies towards the back of his head wondering if he dodged it.

It's exactly 360 degrees, attacked from everywhere. Only the first time he fought, Rhodos had to remember the confusion.

"Surely your demon sword is a troublesome substitute. But... I'll leave the attack to the Devil's Sword. Are you a sight to behold yourself?

To the provocative words of Rhodos, Kerone flaunts his shoulder with a great deal of manoeuvre.

"Yeah, but is there something wrong? This is how I've won so far, and I'm naturally going to win this game as it is. And beyond that too."

"... even if you win with it, I don't think it's the power of the Devil's Sword and not yours... hey!

Without spinning words to the end, Rhodos tries to reduce his distance from Kerone at once as he is.

Rhodos' long sword is a substitute for first-class goods as a pure weapon, but it is an ordinary weapon that is never a demon sword. That's why, for Rhodes, who has purely honed his skill, fighting like Kerone only shows up out of the way.

"Hiu!"

Half your body as you breathe sharply as if whistling. At the next moment, make sure the Devil's Sword passes right by you, and see it as an opportunity to pack up your time with Kerone at once.

The only weapon the opponent has is the Devil's Sword. The long sword released against the torso, which is so judged and difficult to move, is recirculated by the dagger that Kerone took out of his nostrils.

That series of moves was obviously familiar, proving that a person named Kerone was not the only one who had won so far because of the performance of the Devil's Sword dancing in the sky.

"I'm sorry...... hey!

Having received the blow of a long sword unleashed on Rhodos' sideburn, Kerone protrudes the cutting-edge of the dagger straight out of that recirculated motion towards Rhodos.

"Damn!

To an unexpected development, Rodos leaps backwards with a tongue slap to distance himself from Kerone.

In time, which is also close range, I guess I decided that Kerone with a dagger would be more advantageous than himself with a long sword.

But...

"Is it very good to distance yourself from me?

I hear that voice containing a grin somewhere, flashing a long sword in awe.

At the same time, a metal sound of kink echoed around the perimeter.

It was a blow that I almost let go of, but fortunately the survey only exhales a moment of relief that it seems to have worked.

But it was only for a moment that I felt safe. Its demonic sword, which moves freely through the air, strikes Rhodos several times as it is.

It was Rhodos playing, flushing, or dodging all of that, but himself with limits of health and a demonic sword without. I don't have to think which is in my favor.

... I hadn't noticed Rodos himself, but the demon sword named Air Gried uses Kerone's magic to fly around the air. Therefore, if you are thorough in your defense for a while, your magic will run out and you will go back under Kerone, but it would be more impossible to spot that in exactly this short amount of time.

Even for Kerone, I naturally understand the weakness of my demon sword. So, with the Devil's Sword flying through the air back in hand and gripping the pattern, he was replenishing his magic while acting like a theatre on purpose.

"... Well, I'm getting tired of just doing the same thing, and that would be the same for the audience. That's why it's time for me to make up my mind, okay?

"It will be decided...... but!

Rhodos plays and screams the Devil's Sword, which flew in a straight line aiming at his torso directly from the side.

But Kerone stuffs his dagger in between him and Rhodos just because he doesn't even need to hear that opinion.

"Damn, then... here's the thing!

Having confirmed his back for a moment, Rhodos confirms the appearance of Air Grid coming to his back there and moves forward to intercept Kerone coming at him with a dagger.

We came forward with each other, so naturally that distance shrinks rapidly.

If we keep going like this, we'll be bumping into each other from the front. But still, there's a grin in Kerone's mouth.

(Avoid just before you hit the impending Air Grid attack from behind and let me self-destruct. You don't think anyone's ever taken such a means before?

It is a tactic that many think of when fighting Kerone's manipulative Air Grid. But I was already used to dealing with it.

But... Rhodes' next move completely exceeds Kerone's expectations.

Reduced in distance, Rhodos draws a long sword on hand and uses even the momentum his opponent has rammed in to unleash a poke toward the approaching Kerone.

It's not a continuous thrust that Rhodos is most adept at... but a full-blown thrust, as if he put all his strength into one thrust.

"Noooo!

It was just a completely different course of action than Kerone expected, and the response is delayed for a moment...... that moment creates a deadly gap in Kerone.

I desperately tried to recirculate it with a dagger, but without recirculating it just for its full-fledged penetration, Rhodos' long sword cut pierced Kerone's torso.

Only Kerone, who valued the speed of movement, wears a leather armor made from monster leather.

But Rodos' unleashed full force pierced the leather armor as well.

"Guh!"

Without missing that gap that leaks groans into unexpected shocks and the severe pain he feels momentarily delayed, Rhodos forcefully moves a long sword that remains pierced into Kerone's abdomen. As I slashed and tore Kerone's gut, I also moved up to its flesh to get behind me... yes, as the shield of Air Grid, which was imminent to pierce straight from behind Rhodos.

It could be said that what Rhodos did was, as it turned out, act as Kerone had anticipated. Attract and shield Kerone against the impending Air Grid.

The difference is the behavior before that. Did you penetrate your torso by poking it and take it to a situation where you couldn't move like Hayanieh of Moz?

"Huh!?

I guess I understood my current situation. Kerone tried to stop Air Grid's impending impenetrability, but it was a demon sword that flew as fast as it would slash and tear through the air until a few seconds ago. There's no way we can stop moving right away...

"Whew!

As it is, Air Gried's sword tip is pierced by making sure it lines up next to the belly where Rhodos' long sword is pierced, with two long swords pierced from front to back in the abdomen.

"Oops!

The shock when Air Grid pierces him also further widens the wound he received with Rhodos' long sword, spitting blood out of his mouth.

"That's it! Winner, Rodos!

The voice of the referee echoed within the arena, and Lodos' victory was confirmed.

At the same time, the referee rushes to Kerone, whose abdomen is pierced with two swords in such a way that he deposits his weight on the stage, travels with Rodos to the edge of the stage and pulls out two swords just before he lowers them off the stage.

Put it down off the stage as it is and the wound will heal in an instant.

"... a lot of people have used the method of shielding me, but I didn't expect to be stung in the stomach to keep me from moving."

Kerone smiles bitterly as he strokes the pierced area from the top of the leather armor to the sensation of wound wound healing.

"No, I've had a lot of trouble with the flying Devil's Sword. It's a bitter plan."

"It's a bitter tactic... I guess I should just say that you can still act like that aggressively. I'm only drawing the blood of the thunder god's axe."

To Rhodos, who puts a subtly complex look on the word, Kerone smiles and taps lightly on his shoulder, leaving the scene.

Lodos, who dropped it off, also heads towards the entrance and exit where he came in.

(Okay. Next. I can finally fight Ray)

With the audience cheering behind her back, Rhodos was aware of the struggle that existed within himself.

The Lodos game is over, and that next game is over again...

"More importantly, I can't believe I'm hitting the wrong guy so far."

Vacul holds the dagger and exhales bitterly.

At the end of that gaze is a man in his 30s, dressed in metal half-plate armor and holding a Halvard.

Focusing more on force than speed to see...... is what Veicul felt opposite Ganda, who was also its opponent, but after a few blades crossed, he was still the one whose intuition he just thought was right.

"Ha ha. You think you were unlucky enough to deal with me. I'm used to fighting people like you."

Tell him so and rotate Halvard alot as if to show that confidence.

I'm sure the move is technically awkward, but still it was just powerful enough to make me think the power wielding Halvard was somewhat higher than the adventurers around it.

(And being used to fighting speed-oriented opponents like me is never a task)

It had proven that my attacks were lightly prevented when I used the speed I was winning to attack.

I approached him several times trying to scratch a blow from Harvard and launched an attack with a dagger, all of which was taken by Harvard and the armored part.

If the dagger Vacul has is like the Devil's Sword, or if he has the skills to use magic, it could have been different. But Veicul has quite an arm as a bandit, but he was only a regular bandit.

Therefore, if all of the attacks become ineffective, they will have little hands or feet.

(Trump cards are supposed to be used at times like this... you did an extra imitation at all)

Reminds me of the opponents I fought in the first round, tongue-in-cheek.

Ganda's were also probably watching the first battle Veicul fought. It may well be that gathering information on the next person you hit is not that difficult, rather than being a tournament method.

As a result, I could no longer imitate poking surprises any more than I had confirmed with my eyes the trump card of Veiculum called a finger.

"If you're not coming, I'll let you go here!

You're tired of staring at each other, and when Ganda tells you so, she sets up Halvard and packs her distance from Veiculu.

I guess that speed isn't that fast because of the metal armor and the weight of the Halvard that Ganda is still wearing.

But the slowness felt as if the walls were approaching Vacul, and he accidentally retreated.

I noticed myself unconsciously taking a few steps back, tongue-in-cheek.

(You know, losing with feelings... you don't look like me)

Take a short, deep breath, staring at the slowly approaching gang… the next moment, kick the stage and pack the distance at once.

"Huh!"

A dagger that is wielded without even a voice to make it a little harder to respond to an attack.

It doesn't work where the armor is, so it's the joints you should be after. That's also the arm joint with Halvard, Ganda's biggest weapon... not the knee joint.

Sure, if you can keep your opponent from carrying a weapon, your safety will increase. But even though I understood it, I decided that vigilance would be strict.

It was from the decision that the opponent would also be less alert than attacking an arm with a weapon...

"Sweet!

The moment he tries to dive the cutting-edge of his dagger into his knee joint, he is severely impacted with such a voice, and Vacul's body blows away.

Strong blow.

When I was blown away and managed to gaze at what had happened, there was a ganda appearance that fired a blow from the bottom up in the stone-piercing part of Harvard.

Immediately after confirming it, Veicul's body falls off his back to the ground outside the stage.

"That's it! Winner Ganda!"

Listening to the voice of the referee, Veicul lost consciousness.
