Chapter 96 I'm Not Stamina Build

''Heh, use whatever technique you want; you'll end up as a test subject on my experimental table anyway. Kahkaha. '' Herman laughed and raised his hand, blocking the sword that was coming at him.

*Clank*

Raydon felt a powerful recoil as the great sword crashed into Herman's hand, sounding like it had hit an iron.

'Of course, his body is stronger than the burly man, shit. ' Raydon thought, and using the recoil from the attack, he rotated himself to attack him again, this time from the other side. Herman was a little slow to respond this time, and the sword slammed into his shoulder with much more force.

*Clank*

However, again, he didn't appear to be affected by it, but Raydon persisted. He noticed Herman raise his hand, indicating that he was about to use a skill.

''Undead Tentaughh. ''

Raydon's kick to the stomach stopped Herman's skill casting and pushed him back. Raydon saw his opportunity to strike when Herman's head bent, and he raised the great sword above his head, swinging it down with all his might.

*BANG*

This time, Herman's head was struck by the sword with an incredibly loud bang. His head hit the ground, shattering the concrete, also Raydon had to take five steps back to maintain his balance from the recoil.

Instantaneously finding his footing again, Raydon turned to face Herman. He was wondering how much damage this attack had done to him. Raydon had used nearly all of his strength in this attack, as the veins in his arms and neck were nearly bursting from the blood circulation. If only a little more grayish smoke was coming from his mouth, it would have resembled the chimney of a coal-fired train.

As Raydon stood there watching, Herman placed his hands on the ground and pushed himself out of the concrete, which his head had entered by breaking it. Following that, he stood up and began to brush the dust off of himself. Except for a slight bend in the back of his head and the embarrassed expression on his face, he appeared to be in perfect health.

When he saw this scene, Raydon scowled. Due to his high stamina, the berserker technique he used this time was significantly more potent than it was when he used it against the region boss he faced in the first match. He was able to push himself even further because his body could handle the technique better.

Despite this, Herman easily blocked his first attack with his hand, as if he were being attacked with a stick by a child. Even his most powerful attack did not deal much damage to him.

''It was a powerful attack, but not powerful enough to affect me. Kahakah. '' Herman quickly gathered himself and laughed to hide his embarrassment, but on the inside, he was thinking differently.

'Damn. It looks like he is also an E-Rank. His speed and strength appear to be greater than mine, but fortunately not sufficient to overcome my defense.'

After Raydon used the berserker technique, Herman made another inference in the face of the power he saw. But, as usual, he was incorrect. With his current stats, Raydon was only equivalent to a level 18 stamina build item holder. However, the berserker technique he was employing was a more advanced version of the Lionheart family's berserker technique in this world, allowing him to wield power comparable to an E-Rank.

As Herman measured Raydon's strength, Raydon was doing the same for Herman.

'It appears that the stats of E-Rank item holders are higher than I thought. The skills he uses seem to be spirit-supported, but at the same time, his speed and strength are almost equal to mine. Not to mention his stamina stat. '

Raydon couldn't figure out why Herman's stats were so good overall. According to what he knew, every item holder gained two stats with each level. However, even if he distributed the two stats among all stats, how many levels would Herman need to reach to have such high stats?

'This is most likely because of the body enchantments he used, or when an item holder advances to E-Rank they receive additional stat points. ' Raydon made a deduction.

All the information about the item holders in his memory was about F-Rank, so he was unsure exactly what kind of improvement an item holder receives when they advance to E-Rank.

''It looks like you have no intention of attacking,'' Herman said after a while of them staring at each other, contemplating, and simultaneously searching for a chance to strike.

''Enough of wasting time. I accept that you are not bad. However, you are still nothing to me. Kahkahkah'' Herman said and thought to himself.

'Who is this guy? There is no gap in his stance that I can see. I have the feeling that my next strike will result in his sword slitting open my throat. '

Herman would have likely left this fight and fled at this point if he hadn't been relying on his high defense. He was sufficiently intimidated by Raydon's superior swordsmanship and fighting abilities.

Raydon grinned as he returned to his attacking position after hearing this. ''Let me see what you have to offer. ''

'Tch, this guy's a pain. '' Herman saw Raydon's smirk and thought.

Then, behind him, a sizable black hole began to form. ''If you assumed I was a stamina build item holder because of my high defense, you are gravely mistaken. Kahakahakah. ''

Following Herman's statement, Fallen Soldiers and Chimeras started to appear from the hole behind his back, specifically his dimensional storage, which resembled the one Raydon had been killing for a while.

They seemed identical, but there was a significant difference between them. These appeared to be more powerful than the ones Raydon had killed. Even the Fallen Soldiers looked to possess the same strength as the burly man.

''As I previously stated, I am not a stamina build item holder, but rather a charisma build item holder. ''

…

..

.

''WHAT?!'' Raydon shouted in shock.
