Chapter 544: Chapter 237: The Siege Hamr from ister! (2-in-1 ga Chapter)
And looking at the Obsidian giant that had collapsed with a thunderous crash before him, Rein was also a bit stunned for a mont.
Because he hadn’t expected his opponent to be so vulnerable!
It’s not that he hadn’t considered the possibility of inflicting wounds on the Obsidian giant, but at most, he had anticipated only a moderate wound.
But now, the opponent was lying down…
“Damn it!”
“Could it be that the Obsidian giant is the battle pet of that earth elent Wizard standing by?”
...
“However, I can’t be blad for this, can I? It was the Great Knight examiner who said to go all out.”
Having not heard the examiner announce the results for a long ti, Rein couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious.
“Um… Examiner sir, would this be considered a pass?” Rein couldn’t help but ask proactively.
“Hmm?… Of course!” The examiner responsible for announcing the results had just regained his composure.
He imdiately ran to the five examiners responsible for scoring, looked at their marks, then, with an even more excited deanor, ran back to his original place, his face flushed with excitent, and loudly proclaid:
“Contestant number two has defeated the Obsidian giant, passing with a perfect score!”
Whoa!
The crowd instantly beca agitated!
Not only because Rein was the first person to pass the Sword Bearer’s assessnt, but also because of the two key words “perfect score” that the examiner had just ntioned!
Everyone knew that it was difficult to achieve perfection in even the simplest tasks, but they had never heard of anyone obtaining a perfect score in the Sword Bearer’s assessnt.
At this point, the expressions of the people in the crowd perfectly illustrated an array of emotions, with looks of envy, jealousy, excitent, and more, all varying widely.
Vinica’s excited little face was flushed red, her fists clenched tightly, her golden twin ponytails swishing, while Evelyn also couldn’t hide her exhilaration, covering her mouth with her hand in surprise.
…
“Um… can I go back now?” Rein continued to ask.
After all, he genuinely didn’t know where he was supposed to go, having passed the assessnt.
“Lord Rein, you can rest in the lounge we used earlier until everyone else’s assessnt is over, at which ti we will handle all the procedures together.”
“Of course, you can also choose to stay here and observe the assessnts of the others.”
Going back to the lounge alone?
Rein shook his head internally.
Vinica and Evelyn hadn’t yet undergone their assessnts. It wouldn’t be right for him to leave by himself first.
“I’d rather stay with my companions,” Rein said.
“Of course, Lord Rein, please do as you wish.”
“Okay!”
Imdiately after, Rein turned and left the center of the field, returning to the crowd.
As Rein walked back, the crowd automatically parted to create a pathway for him; anwhile, the gazes of many swept over him.
Rein couldn’t help but feel like a national leader inspecting the honor guard in a previous life…
“Lord Rein, congratulations, you are simply amazing,” Vinica said with her beautiful eyes shining.
Evelyn also ca over with a smile, saying, “Lord Rein, I haven’t seen you in action for a while, and I didn’t expect your strength to have reached this level.”
“Thank you, I’ve had so recent insights,” Rein responded with a smile.
As soon as Rein returned to Vinica’s side, the surroundings once again burst into hushed whispers, but the topic of discussion seed to veer off slightly:
“Damn! That hamr strike from contestant number two was even fiercer than a battering ram!”
“Indeed, otherwise, we should nickna this fellow number two ‘the Battering Ram.’ By the way, where is he from?”
“I heard from a few people next to just now, apparently, he cos from ister County.”
“The ister by the seaside?”
“Incredible! A minor place like ister actually produced such an impressive person.”
“So, how about we call this number two, ‘the Battering Ram from ister’?”
…
Hence, Rein quickly acquired the nickna ‘the Battering Ram.’
Upon hearing the people’s whispered discussions, Rein’s forehead went dark; he found the na extrely unappealing!
The previous ‘Baron Hamr’ was one thing, but ‘the Battering Ram from ister’?
What a ridiculous nickna?
On one side of the hall, a rectangular pane of glass was embedded in the wall, known only to the staff as a one-way mirror.
Inside was a small room where three elderly n dressed in different garb and a middle-aged man were discussing Rein, who had just felled the Obsidian giant with a single hamr strike, just like the people outside.
One of the elderly n, wearing a uniform befitting an admiral, had bright, authoritative eyes and crow’s feet at the corners but an even more commanding presence than Count Habs, whom Rein had previously encountered. His shoulder bore three golden insignia that symbolized the sun.
This indicated that the man was a high-ranking Admiral of the Dragan Empire; he was Admiral Edward, the head of the Sword Holder Minter Branch.
“Just now, I noticed that his speed and strength seed sowhat mismatched; the strength far surpasses the speed,” he said.
“This young man must possess so special talent related to strength.”
The other two clearly agreed with Admiral Edward’s assessnt, as they nodded slightly.
They were well aware that Admiral Edward, as the head of a special departnt, possessed extrely formidable combat skills and had an exceptional eye for talent.
At this point, an elderly man dressed in noble hunting attire interjected, “But strength alone wouldn’t have been enough to cause such severe damage to the Obsidian giant; he must have mastered a secret technique of Hamr Skill.”
