Rein had been intently staring at the unfamiliar Great Knight before him.
So when his opponent charged at high speed, he wasn't the slightest bit afraid. He quickly took down the dark pig-headed hamr from behind and didn't block, but instead swung the Heavy Hamr Furious Strike towards his adversary!
At that mont, the special effect of the heavy weapon, "Weight as Light," played a crucial role!
To the onlookers, it seed impossible for Rein to block the strike, let alone counterattack with the cumberso two-handed warhamr!
But Rein's speed was just a notch faster than everyone had estimated!
"Clang!!!"
Faced with Rein's exceedingly swift Heavy Hamr Furious Strike, a sense of alarm surged through Parix. He instantly switched from attacking to blocking, catching the blow with his arm blade reinforced by the source energy.
"Eh?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Parix's eyes!
Holding a two-handed warhamr and still such fast speed?
This young man before him, Rein, seed to have sothing up his sleeve!
Moreover, within that hamr strike, Parix felt a power seeping through his armor and energy defense, a power that was...
But before he could fully savor Rein's previous strike,
Rein, holding the dark pig-headed hamr, swung out another blow as quick as lightning, moving from right to left!
"Heavy Hamr Sweep!"

Facing Rein's combo-like fierce counterattacks, Parix spun around while bringing up his arm blade to block once again.
"Clang!!" Sparks flew everywhere!
For a mont, Rein swung more than a dozen hamr strikes in succession, each one mighty and forceful with layers of Shock power. Eventually, Parix had to start expending significant amounts of source energy to withstand this continuous shock damage.
"You're quite responsive, eh? You've already activated your limit-breaking and Transcendent traits.
"A smart move, but how long can you maintain this state?"
"...."
It seed Parix was trying to provoke Rein verbally, causing him to reveal a flaw or hesitation.
Unfortunately, his words had no effect on Rein, whose black warhamr remained as steady and powerful as ever.
Which frustrated Parix quite a bit.
"Clang!!!"
Another head-on collision!
This ti, Parix, who had been steadily standing his ground, suddenly took the impact to swiftly retreat more than ten paces.
Even though he had moved out of Rein's warhamr attack range and no longer needed to worry about blocking Rein's hamr, his hands trembled slightly behind his back!
Hiss!
That really hurt!
Could this strength be...
"You... you've actually mastered Hamr Skill at a master level!" Parix's eyes widened in shock as he looked at Rein in astonishnt.
Unlike Norman, who had just entered the Great Knight stage, Parix had co to realize that Rein's power with the hamr was too strong, surpassing even the proficient level!
You see, among the strong at the Great Knight level, weapon specialization typically just reached proficiency, or at most, a half-step into the master level.
And like Rein, one who had mastered Hamr Skill to such a level was outstanding among Great Knights.
What puzzled Parix was how this young man, Rein, had managed to master his Hamr Skill to such a high level at his young age?
But quickly, before Rein could respond, Parix cald his surprise. He retreated to a nearby squad leader who was dressed in sturdy attire, picking up the solid tal Kite Shield and the battle axe.
"Rein, is it?"
"A young man with great talent. Too bad the ga is over!
"You don't think that was all my strength, do you? Now, I'm going to get serious!"
While Parix had retreated, Rein didn't chase him but started to murmur a magic spell...
And as Parix turned to take up his axe and shield, a subtle fluctuation passed around Rein, and sothing different seed to stir in the air.
"Swoosh!"
Parix powered up his source energy to its full extent, his body emitting a soft glow, as he charged at Rein once more!
This ti, he no longer had the teasing and playful attitude from before. Instead, there was a sincere sense of excitent and eagerness within him.
A rare Hamr Skill genius from the Dragan Empire was about to die by his hand.
The thrill of cutting down a talent was sothing he hadn't felt in a long ti!
"Boom! Clang! Clang!"
The figures of the two moved extrely fast, and even with the streetlights and the lamps in the garden illuminating their surroundings, it was nearly impossible to discern their movents in the dim setting.
All that could be sensed were two blurs of fast-moving mist engaging in relentless combat.
Rein had not chosen to unleash 'Strength Burst' at full power but rely activated about thirty percent to almost even out the power disparity between him and Parix.
Not using his secret techniques was due to the opponent's slightly higher speed. Even if Rein had used all his power, he might have been easily dodged by Parix which would not only waste a significant amount of energy but also reveal his trump card prematurely.
Simply put, the right mont for victory had not yet co.
Although Parix had not gained the upper hand, he was not anxious, as his foundation was solid—he was a Great Knight, and Rein was a Knight, naturally having the superior physical prowess.
Rein was currently able to keep up or defend against his aggressive pace thanks to the combination of full-powered Burst and master-level Hamr Skill.
