Theo, whose eyes were about to burst, confronted Noctar.
A little while ago, the figure that was focused only on avoiding was gone.
Now, while avoiding the hatchet rushing at him quickly, he counterattacks.
Kaang!
The hatchet and the longsword intersect.
The hatchet slashed Theo’s shirt collar, and the long sword brushed Noctar’s thigh.
“Ha, ha! ha ha!”
“Heh, heh heh heh heh!”
Theo’s harsh breathing and Noctar’s furious laughter echo across the arena.
Without making a single concession, the two zealots continued a tense battle.
At this moment, the two had only one desire. To defeat the opponent in front of you.
Theo felt like he was about to lose his mind.
The amplified [Overload] amplifies the effect, but the feedback is also great.
Tick, tick, tick.
Has it been 30 seconds since you used it? The time I used during the battle with Julia had long since passed.
His eyes were red and bloodshot, and he was about to explode, and the muscles and joints all over his body screamed.
But Theo ignored it, and the most beautiful and powerful sword he had ever seen. He performed an unnamed swordsmanship inspired by outstanding people, such as Phil’s sword dance.
‘Damn, there are no real monsters.’
Noktar didn’t see any gaps.
And Noctar was clever.
He was actively utilizing his [Hard Skin] characteristics. It allows attacks on non-lethal forearms and chest muscles, and immediately counterattacks with a hatchet.
It would be different if it was a true sword, but it is difficult to penetrate the thick skin of the blunt long sword Noctar.
But he is different. If you get even one hit from Noctar’s hatchet, it’s over.
…but, whining doesn’t change anything.
It is wise to think about how to defeat Noctar in such a time of nonsense.

Fatigue is accumulating rapidly.I have to knock it down somehow.
“Ha, ha, ha!”
Breath goes up to the bottom of your chin.
I want to sit down right now. [Twisted nobility’s dignity] and whatever it is, I feel like giving up on everything.
The low tenacity stat tempts me to say that if I did this much, I could stop and rest.
‘But I can’t stop.’
Biting his lip so tightly, Theo felt the thick scent of blood lingering in his mouth.
But when you give up, the moment you give up, it’s all over.
no words needed It must be proven only by actions and results.
That is the absolute good that I have believed in since childhood.
Putting aside the infantile self-defense saying that this is enough, I tried hard enough.
They don’t even care about stamina for the next game. If we don’t defeat Noktar, who has a presence like the mountain in front of us anyway, we won’t win the championship, let alone the next match.
The only thing that exists in this place right now should be the hot fighting spirit and the hot sweat that has already soaked the clothes.
At such a Theo, Noctar shouted with a hand axe.
“Uh-huh! Hey Theo! Have you really grown a lot? What would you lose if you didn’t have the trait? How did you become so strong! It’s completely different from what I saw at the training ground!”
“Noctar, it is you.”
Screaming low, Theo counterattacked, dodging Noctar’s hand axe.
Did I say that one proper practice is more effective than 100 practice?
It had been less than a minute since he and Noctar were properly attached, but Theo’s counterattack grew sharper and sharper. Each time Noctar was given a valid hit.
Noctar had [hard skin] characteristics, and it was because he was a strong orc, and if he were a normal human, he would have already collapsed.
But Noctar is well aware of his strengths.
‘If you eat just one shot, it’s my victory!’
Noktar smiled wildly as he looked at his grown friend.
Unlike himself, Theo’s stamina and physical durability are mediocre.
After all, if you only get one effective hit, Theo will fall. You can keep accumulating damage just by swiping.
Theo’s appearance, which seems to be full of momentum, and at the same time seems to be in a precarious position, proves that.
“Don’t fall, Theo! Make me more happy!”
“I’ll lay you down right away, Noctar!”
It had been over a minute since Theo used the amplified [Overlord].

The orcs in the audience fell into a crucible of enthusiasm.
“Wow! This is a battle of true warriors! Go, Noctar! Just feed one room properly! Theo, his leg is loose!”
“Theo, that’s amazing! Humans could be that strong! I didn’t know you’d fight a whistle with Noctar!”
“Cheer up, Noctar! Prove who the real warrior is!”
All the standing orcs shouted out loud.
On the other hand, reporters, guilds, and government officials squealed with astonishment.
“·······Senior. What, that. How was Theo like that? Noktar doesn’t like it at all?
“That’s a bit silly, if it was a real sword, unless Noctar was an idiot, he would say, ‘Give me something!’ He probably didn’t face him that way. Anyway, it’s interesting. In the previous evaluation of the actual match, it was completely different from when he was playing against Ralph. If he moves like that, he’s definitely at the top of the list, right?”
“Is the Braves Department different? The lowest level students are at that level. Has your potential finally awakened?”
“This year’s jockey is the greatest of all time, but I think Theo, that student, is special. I have received numerous profiles of middle and low-ranking students, but none of them are of that level. The direct line of the Walderk family I think it’s the potential influence.”
“··················································································································································································································· What happened between summer vacations.”
“After all, there is no way a tiger can give birth to a cub. In the last match, it was finished in a flash after letting the opponent be vigilant…… Patience, composure, and resourcefulness have already been proven….. You will be able to become an outstanding warrior after Caju.”
The other student spectators purely enjoyed the blood and sweat competition.
However, the students of the Knights Faculty were noisy. Most of them, with their eyes wide open, observed Theo fighting on the pitch without being pushed by Noctar.
“Wow… Theo, look at his face. It’s bloody, really. I’ll believe it even if it’s a demon from hell.”
“You seem to have gotten a lot stronger than when you were fighting Julia before…? Huh? The one you’re using now looks like Irene’s swordsmanship?”
Their chatter didn’t last long.
“Uh! Gullik is down!”
“Irene joins Theo!”
“Yes, Irene! Defeat the Great Orc King!”
It was because Gullik fell to his knees when the duration of the two-buff had expired.
Immediately, Irene joined Theo.
“Theo! Are you okay?!”
Of course it didn’t look good.
Theo was already in a tattered state. It’s forgiving that it didn’t fall. His legs are loose, and blood is pouring out of his nose.
‘You have to write it.’
A technology that has not been used for a long time because it has not been completed.
But the excuse that it can’t be completed and can’t be written doesn’t work.
‘We need to save Theo…!’
It’s obvious why Theo does this.
That’s how much you want to win.
Irene wanted to respond to Theo’s will.
Did you have this kind of power in yourself?
Irene hurriedly ran to Noktar and used Biggie.
“Ha-ha-!”
It had no name, just like Theo’s swordsmanship.
But the name was pretty good. If there is an enlightenment that has been in it for over ten years. And if only he could save Theo with that skill.
The nameless 13 high-speed stabs pierced Noctar’s thigh.
Not all 13 rooms were filled. But the 3rd room entered ‘correctly’.
“Woo!”
Noctar let out a furious roar.
Due to the aftereffects of the technique, Irene could not put in an extra hit.
But Theo isn’t going to miss that short break.
“I’m sorry, Noktar. But this is a two-for-one confrontation. You’ve worked really hard, please rest.”
with those words-
Pop!
Theo’s longsword slammed into Noctar’s head.
* * *
The first match of the round of 16, Theo & Irene and Noktar & Gullik team ended.
No one spoke on the pitch.
I just stare at the silent stadium with wide-eyed eyes.
Above them were Theo, who was undressed, but still standing without losing his dignity, and Irene, who was looking at Theo with a worried face.
And next to the two men was Gullik, who was kneeling, and Noctar, who was standing still.
…Noctar was stunned while standing.
In other words, the winners of this fierce match were Team Theo & Irene.
[Uh, uh, uh…..]
Even the broadcasters were speechless. Just like the audience, they just stare at this shocking sight with wide-open eyes.
It was the Orcs who broke the silence.
Undressed?????
