A Highest Rank in Another World!

Chapter 74 - 73 – The Moment I've Been Waiting For Has Arrived.

After a few more seconds, the battle began.

The teacher remained standing and waited for Bertga to do something, but that didn't happen. Bertga continued to stand watching the professor and seemed to be waiting for something, I think it's a good idea.

If he were to attack the teacher directly, he would surely end up doing something wrong out of nervousness, so waiting for a move is a sensible choice for him at this point.

"I see, you won't attack..." As the teacher did not want to wait too long, he moved forward and in an instant appeared in front of Bertga who was concentrated. Bertga was not startled by the sudden attack but calmly avoided its attack by throwing his body to the side.

This was surprising, even though he was nervous he managed to calm down and act calmly during the teacher's attack.

And it wasn't just once, the professor approached and swung his sword towards Bertga's body, but Bertga managed to calmly avoid the professor's sword.

But he couldn't do that for long. The professor began to increase the speed of his steps and his attacks, making Bertga despair a little as he approached near the edge of the courtyard.

'Come on Bertga, if you are cornered, you will be defeated instantly.

So far Bertga was only on the defensive and didn't dare make an attack towards the professor. I don't know why, but they all prefer being defensive to making an attack, it's frustrating.

"Bertga, try to hit him, you can." As I wanted to see a battle a little busier, I decided to encourage him a little. And with that, some other students also started to support him.

Hearing this, Bertga smiled and seemed determined to do something. And in the professor's next attack he finally decided to use his sword. He was using only one hand, looks like he learned.

With the professor's attack, he spun his body to the left and then ducked, making a diagonal attack toward the professor's legs. However, just as the sword was approaching, the professor lowered his sword and easily blocked Bertga's attack.

But he wasn't done. Bertga began to make quick movements with his body as he focused on hitting the professor's legs to try to knock him down. I can understand since your body is so robust.

But his legs were no different, just one attack is not enough to knock him down, Bertga would have to hit the teacher's leg several times for something to happen.

'He is doing well using his height difference as a weapon. After he saw the first boy doing it, he thought it was a good idea. Well, I don't deny it's a good idea, but it's also inefficient."

Besides, this way of fighting is strange, so strange that it even makes me feel a little distressed.

But besides being weird, it had a lot of problems.

With his body lowered, he made his head more vulnerable, and also because of the inclination he made when attacking, the professor could easily hit his back if he wanted.

Also, his legs would tire very quickly.

He struggled to stay low as he used the strength of his legs to turn his body and avoid the professor's sword.

The exchanges of attacks continued, and Bertga was being hit in several parts of his body, mainly his shoulder and back. The marks on the armor showed that.

But even after being hit so many times, he managed to hit the teacher. He was the first person to achieve this.

A horizontal attack directly hit the professor's thigh, but the professor didn't seem to have felt the attack.

Taking advantage of the fact that Bertga had his body down and was already tired, he just swung his sword downwards and hit Bertga directly on the back, who fell to the ground and was still.

"Did he die?" I was just kidding, he was probably just tired. But he did well, he was the first student to hit the teacher with an attack, and that got all the students excited.

It looks like Bertga will be one of those guys much admired by his peers. That's nice.

'And on top of that, I have never seen anything like it.' I don't think I have ever seen anyone use a fighting style where it is crouched like that, it's very weird and inefficient. But because of that Bertga managed to hit the teacher, so I think it's okay.

I just have to remind him never to do it again.

The next battle was with Elinas.

He was the only person who chose to use a two-handed sword and still managed to pass the training. But looking at him, I could see he wasn't okay.

Elinas looked tired, he hadn't had enough rest.

Walking to the center of the courtyard while dragging his sword was enough to make him a little breathless, he certainly isn't prepared for a battle right now, but of course, the professor didn't mind that.

Before long the battle had started and Elinas had gone into guard. He waited for the professor to attack, but the professor didn't move.

"Come on, I know you want to attack me." Seeing that Elinas was starting to get nervous, the teacher started teasing him, and of course, like a naive child, Elinas advanced towards him.

.

He couldn't run very well holding the two-handed sword, he held his sword at his side as its tip almost dragged on the ground.

Elinas was slow, but even so, he seemed very motivated to hit the professor with an attack.

Moving closer, he put all of his strength into both his arms and swung his big sword towards the professor. Even though it was made of wood, it was a heavy sword, so the professor certainly couldn't block it with just one hand.

The teacher held his little sword in both hands, one hand was holding the hilt and the other the tip of the sword. He placed the sword in front of his body and received Elinas' attack.

A great sound was created from the impact of the two swords, and then the sound of something breaking was heard. The professor's sword had been split in half with the impact of Elinas' sword.

Elinas' sword broke the professor's sword and the attack directly hit the professor's chest.

The teacher took the attack like it was nothing, but Elinas had hit him square in the chest, making all the students even more excited than they had been during the previous fight.

"Tsk, I thought this sword would hold." Looks like he didn't know this would happen. It was also surprising to me that his sword broke like that. Was Elinas that strong?

I didn't get to look at his Status, I need to check that later, because the battle wasn't over yet.

You know, if it were two real swords and the professor's sword had broken, he'd be dead by now, but a real sword would never break like that.

Now that the professor was without a sword, he decided to attack Elinas with his bare hands. With the attack that had hit the professor, Elinas was excited and continued to swing his big sword towards the professor.

Sometimes slow and sometimes fast movements passed close to the teacher's body, but none hit him.

He was practically dancing while playing with Elinas. His body movements were smooth despite his size.

Elinas tried to hit the professor's torso, but the professor avoided his attack with just a smooth backward movement as if he were dancing. Attacks on his lower body were avoided with heels and circling movements as if the professor were dancing the waltz.

This guy knows what he's doing, and he's just showing off to the students, he wouldn't need to do that.

Even the attacks that came towards his head that were made by the low Elinas were very easily avoided with a smooth movement. This time it was the teacher who was on the defensive, but it was all his choice.

As soon as he got tired of what was happening, the professor approached Elinas in an instant. Desperate, Elinas tried to make a quick move with her sword, but her sword was caught in the side by a kick from the professor.

A well-aimed kick with his right leg, sending the sword out of his hand.

The sword had fallen a few feet away.

After that, the two were unarmed, so the professor invited him for a hands-on fight, and Elinas made the most obvious choice.

"I give up, there's no way I can win." Yes, he made the right choice. Even though the professor doesn't hurt him, he is so tired that he could start to feel sick if he continued this battle.

The teacher looked a little disappointed about this, but he was also happy as he came out victorious. I think he's the first adventurer or old teacher getting happy with beating weak kids.

'Well, Elinas also managed to land an attack on him. It was the teacher's mistake, but it's still impressive.'

But now had arrived one of the moments I was most waiting for, which was Isabell's battle against the teacher. Man, if the professor knew her true strength, I'm sure he'd run away now.

Or maybe he would be as excited about this battle as I am.
