A Highest Rank in Another World!

Chapter 73 - 72 - And The Battles Begin.

After that, he decided the order of battles. First, it would be the other three students, after that it would be Bertga, then Elinas, Isabell, and the last person to battle him would be me.

I don't deny that I wanted to be first, but I think it's okay so I can watch the professor a little before our battle. It's not that I'm scared, but it's always good to study the "Enemy."

I hadn't looked at his Status either, and I chose not to look at it yet, for some reason I was wanting to surprise myself. Whether he's too strong or weak, I want to find out during our battle.

I went outside the yard as well as the other people who were resting and began to observe the professor and his first opponent. He was a little short boy, but he had some muscles.

Due to his appearance and his physical bearing, this guy was not a nobleman, he had the body of someone who has worked for a long time even though he was a child.

I didn't know his name, and he wasn't here the first day, maybe I should talk a little with my colleagues later so I'll approach them and know everyone's name. Not that it matters, but I want to make some friends around here.

Before the battle started, the professor left and went to the small room where the weapons were. He took a wooden sword and also a small armor for the boy. It was the same armor those guys were wearing when we watched that battle.

Did this thing protect? It was thin and didn't look tough, I think even if you get an attack using that you will feel a lot of pain.

Also, the professor removed his armor as he was wearing metal armor and it would be a little unfair.

The student put on the armor a little apprehensive, he seemed to have realized that it would not help much if he was hit. What I could tell him now is not to be nervous, but I preferred to be silent.

After putting on his armor, the boy held his sword in both hands and faced the teacher. Unlike the worried boy, the teacher was holding the wooden sword in one hand as he smiled.

"Alright, be careful with my attacks as I don't know how to control my strength." The teacher was trying to scare the boy. Wait, he's managing to scare him.

"Can't you take it a little easier on him? He has no training at all." I decided to say something as I was a little worried about all of them. Even though they know this is training, they can get hurt badly if the teacher attacks with all his strength.

"Oh?" The teacher looked at me but completely ignored me and turned back to the boy in front of him.

After that, the battle began.

Counting to 3 and then attacking the boy with all his strength. The teacher swung his sword directly at the boy's head, he wanted to end this with an attack.

If this attack hit, surely that boy would get hurt. But the boy seemed to be paying attention to this and with a small leap back he managed to avoid the teacher's attack.

His movements were quick.

But the teacher didn't let the boy rest. He approached the boy and started throwing some blows against the boy's chest. He was jabbing with his sword, and the boy couldn't avoid them all.

Even though the professor tried to control his strength, those attacks were still powerful.

The boy was throwing his body backward, sideways, and even trying to use his sword to block the teacher's sword, but... Small marks from the tip of the sword began to appear all over the armor, showing that the professor's attacks were hitting him.

He was on the defensive and as much as he tried to counterattack at any time during the teacher's attacks, the most his sword did was collide with the teacher's sword who used his sword to block all the boy's attacks.

But the boy wasn't giving up, he started using his only advantage at the moment, which was his height and agility. He's stopped holding the sword in both hands and seems to have realized that holding it with just one hand is better.

With this change, he was able to move his body even more. Using his agility to avoid the teacher's attacks by lowering his body and running around the teacher at high speed.

Spinning around and dodging the attacks, was leaving him breathless and tired quickly. Realizing that, he decided to start attacking at the same time.

He started making quick movements around the teacher who couldn't keep up very well. And taking advantage of this situation, the boy began using his sword to try to hit the teacher's body.

He had multiple angles to hit the professor. He could hit his legs, his stomach, his back, and he tried to hit them all, but it was useless.

Even with some difficulty in following the boy with his own body or eyes, the teacher had a very good instinct, so he could block all the boy's attacks with his sword.

He didn't even try to avoid the sword, he just blocked it.

The boy knew that this alone would not be enough, so he started using his legs as weapons. Trying to kick the professor while also using his sword, but it wasn't easy.

His kicks were blocked by the teacher's hand. And the teacher's other hand held his sword which was used to block the boy's sword. For a long time, the professor let him attack and did not move.

Unable to hurt or hit the teacher once, he gave up and sat down on the floor. He was panting and sweating, he was giving up on this battle, so the professor pointed his sword at him and announced his victory.

"You're too strong, I can't even hit you."

"I'm not very strong, you're very weak, don't you understand yet?"

"I think that's it, I need to get even stronger, no?"

"Yes, you will need a lot of training. But I'm very surprised, never imagine that you would also try to use physical attacks."

"Well, it was the only thing I trained before I came to this school."

"So you've never used a sword before?"

"No..."

"I see, you did great for someone who has never used a sword, now go rest because I need to have fun with a few more kids." The teacher looked at us and smiled.

Then the boy took his sword and walked out of the courtyard. There, he dropped to the ground and passed out from fatigue. It wasn't a very long battle and he's not holding out anymore, I hope he improves on that.

Even though his body is a little trained he doesn't seem to have much stamina.

######

After that, the second boy was called in, but he couldn't take it for a long time.

This time the teacher didn't want to let him attack, so the teacher with some moves removed the sword from the boy's hand making him give up. It was a very quick battle, so I thanked it in my mind.

I would no longer want to see another long and boring battle like the first.

After that, it was the turn of the third boy.

Unlike the second one, he managed to exchange some attacks with the professor. He could move very quickly and had acceptable strength for his age. But of course, in the end, it was the teacher who won.

But the boy looked very happy when he was praised by the teacher.

And after these three rather boring battles, it was finally Bertga's turn.

"Noah, I'm scared." He approached me and said quietly so that no one around us would hear. Dude, is he really scared? This is a little disappointing.

"Don't worry, the teacher won't hurt you." Or I think he will hold back.

"You think? I don't want to do this, don't you want to take my place?"

"Not really, my turn will be soon. You better hurry or the teacher will get annoyed. If he gets angry, he might end up hurting you." I don't think he would do that, but hearing that Bertga hurried and went to the middle of the courtyard.

"So, would you prefer I attack first? Or do you prefer to start? I see your arms are shaking a little, haven't you had enough rest?" The professor said as soon as the battle started.

"Yes, that's right. My arms are tired, can't we leave this battle for another time?" Wow, are you going to make up that excuse? You're just shaking because you're scared.

"Don't worry, I'll use a little strength, you'll make it. So can we get started?"

"Haa~~ Alright, but please don't hurt me." Bertga sighed and concentrated, I think he's decided. But it wouldn't do any good, his arms continued to tremble and he had already started to sweat.

He's very scared, he won't be able to do anything here.
