Barnabas Kruk.
Commander of the Dietrich family knights.
Considered by many to be the strongest in the kingdom.
He is known as the skilled Barnabas.
He is not a belligerent and treats me with respect, but what does that mean?
"I can't believe Barnabas wants to fight me. Don't tell me you're not also a prestige member of the Knighthood or something?'
'Ho-ho-ho, you can't say that now. 'Master Elias, you are strong. But I want you to know that you will lose once. If you continue to win, I have a feeling that you will be in danger. Will you please keep up with my elder's nonsense?"
"Don't be silly, Barnabas! Elias is very tired! Let him go home!"
It's true, I had two fights with Wolff and Karl.
But I haven't taken any damage, and although I feel tired, I'm not incapable of fighting.
'Little girl, since when did I give you permission to talk like that? 'I don't mind you, Master Elias, but I don't want to hear you speak to me like that."
Fool! I'm not afraid of you, even if you're scary. ......'
Sofia is trembling.
"Barnabas, let me tell you something."
'Yes, ?'
'Sofia is my personal servant maid. Though she has been rude to you, I will not allow you to be awe-struck."
"I see,...... that the son of Leon, Master Leon, is so intimidating,...... no, it's as if you admit defeat before you even begin to fight."
'Very well, Barnabas. Let's see who's more powerful".
"Master Elias!"
'I'm fine, Sophie. Thank you for your concern."
He is clearly different from my previous opponents.
I don't know if I can win.
Still, I can't back down.
The arena.
We both have our weapons.
"Barnabas, what weapon do you use?"
"Of course, a sword."
"So am I.'
Wolff is back and has been asked to be the referee.
"I never thought I'd see an old man fighting a young master. Well, good. Let's begin. No magic and no items. Are both sides agreed?"
"Okay."
"Then, let's begin!"
The overwhelming atmosphere of strength.
Reminds me of a dungeon.
The skeleton uncle.
There was a huge difference in strength then too.
The difference in strength was so great that it was a wonder I didn't die.
At that time, I could manage because I could use potions.
This time I couldn't even use magic.
Neither of us is moving.
I don't know which way to attack.
'Hmm, aren't you coming?
"I know the difference in ability. To be honest, I'm scared. But I won't just end up waiting like this!'
I unleashed a side swipe from a thrust.
But that attack was ......
'Ho-ho-ho, you are young."
The thrust was dodged and the side sneak attack was parried.
Parry.
It's completely different from the Parry I've just learnt.
It's a skill.
I try various combos, but there is no way I'm going to strike.
'Ho-ho-ho, you're quite good at this."
"How so? You're dealing with everything with ease."
I'm still trying hard.
Barnabas's expression shows no signs of haste at all.
Bad. The gap in ability is much bigger than I thought it would be.
If Barnabas attacks, it's over.
I have to keep attacking.
I try various types of attack but they are all either avoided or passed over.
'Ha ha ha ...... won't hit me.'
The attack comes just as I'm losing concentration due to fatigue.
"Watch out!"
'System message: agility increased by 200. Your side-avoidance has increased by 20 .
"Oh, you're dodging that one?"
Miraculously, I managed to avoid it.
What is the technique Barnabas, anyway?
He is much faster than Karl.
He's probably more powerful than Wolff.
I tried to parry Barnabas's sword, but it was impossible.
I am not skilled enough.
System message: "HP reduced by 200. Maximum HP increased by 100. Defence increased by 50.'"
In addition, guards are pierced.
System message:" HP reduced by 100. Maximum increased by 80. Defence increased by 50.'"
'Not lethal damage, but if this keeps up I'm going to lose.
'Ho-ho-ho, great to see you last this long."
"Don't flatter me."
"I am not flattered."
Certainly, on closer inspection, Barnabas looks less relaxed than he did at the start of the fight.
Rather than aiming for a big blow here, he switches to a quick attack.
'System message: "you have dealt 300 damage to Barnabas. Attack power increased by 200. Speed Thrust level has increased by 10. Speed Thrust increased by 10 ."
I managed to hit him.
It wasn't match-defining damage, but.
'I didn't expect this ...... as much, no wonder Wolff and Karl lost."
Then I attacked with all my might.
Sometimes I was hit, sometimes I was evaded or parried.
In the same way, I've been taking and avoiding Barnabas's attacks.
I am not able to parry them, though.
A back-and-forth battle then followed.
My attack power went up to 2500 and my agility to 1000.
Maximum HP went up to 2500 and defence to 1500.
'Ha ha, you are strong, Barnabas."
'Elias-sama is this strong ...... and you have become rapidly stronger in further battles. I have never seen a man like you.'
The movements of both sides are slow due to exhaustion and pain.
The forces are so close that there is no sign of a resolution.
What should we do? There is no move to decide the match.
While I was thinking about this, a disheartened voice called out to me from outside the arena.
"Hmmm, Elias is pretty good, isn't he? Even though Barnabas is holding back.'
The owner of that voice is the third princess, Mila Athrun-sama, the Jealous Hero of the original story.
