Chapter 111

“Congratulations, my Lord . ”

Philip, with his heart beating fast, watched the every second of the confrontation .

The moment Luke was about to respond .

‘Kuak!’

A terrible pain swept his entire body like something was twisting inside him .

His bones seemed like they were shattering . His muscles were cramping . His blood vessels seemed to be blocked . The sky was looking yellow, and it became difficult for him to breath .

“Lord?” Asked Philip .

‘Dammit, this…’

After the 2nd phase of Build-up…

After suddenly exploding the potential, the mana exertion, the amount the body could handle had been increased exponentially .

The good news was that since Luke had experienced this in the past, he could cope with this situation .

‘Breath! First I need to control the runaway mana and stabilize my heart’s veins . ’

Breathing in and out a few times, Luke’s body seemed to have relaxed a little .

“Are you alright?”

Philip approached Luke and asked .

“I am fine . I think I overdid myself a little,” answered Luke .

Somehow, the match was over .

There were no knights who were boasting about their abilities or skills .

But…

Clap! Clap! Clap!

The sound of applause could be heard from the soldiers who witnessed the match .

“It was amazing . I never thought that you could really take on 100 people . ”

“You must be?” Asked Luke .

“Bison . A knight in the cavalry, a native in here . I was out on patrol and came back when I was told that there was something fun happening here . ”

Bison looked around at the fallen knights and picked up a sword that was lying on the ground .

“They sure are inexperienced ones, but I can’t turn my back away from my colleagues who had been taken down . It is a little late, but can I participate?” Asked Bison .

“What are you talking about, Sir Bison?”

Asked Philip .

Philip noticed that Luke wasn’t in a condition to fight again .

And after everything was done, the man asked for another fight!

“It has ended already . Don’t bother talking useless stuff and get back to duty!”

“Haha, useless stuff you say?! You knocked down a 100, but now you can’t even take on a single knight from the native cavalry?”

At the swords from Bison, soldiers began to mumble .

After seeing the huge fight, they were all very excited . So a sudden challenge from someone was intriguing for the soldiers and pushed the new commander into thought about what had to be done .

‘What is he trying to do?’

Luke was irritated, he looked at Bison .

He was asking for a fight after the entire match had ended .

Luke thought of a good idea after thinking about how to deal with this annoying challenger .

“Nice, I will take on your challenge . But, how about we don’t use swords and use something else instead?”

“Something else? Are you planning on fighting using Gigants?” Asked Bison .

“You do know how to control a Gigant, right?”

“Well, I worked as a mercenary rider in a clan, so that won’t be a problem . ”

Philip was surprised upon hearing what Luke and Bison was talking about .

The mercenary riders who played in the Gigants Arena were very good at maneuvering .

And in comparison, Luke was an expert knight, but he was still a novice rider in the intermediate stage of practicing the balance of a Gigant .

Some time ago, on the way to the fortress, he tried to hone his guiding skills, but it wasn’t to a level where he could use a Gigant in a battle .

“Lord, it would be better if you step down . ”

“Nope, I need to fight . If I step out of here now, all I did will be in vain . ”

The reason why Luke fought the knights was to show everyone his overwhelming skills and to make sure that a proper military atmosphere would be established .

If Luke turned his back to this challenge, then he wouldn’t be able to achieve his intended goal .

“However…” Philip tried to speak .

“Don’t worry . I have thought of something . ”

Luke turned down Philip’s advice and looked at Bison .

“Sir Bison, I accept your challenge . ”

“Huhuhu, you are a man of your word . There is no law that can let you escape from this . ”

Bison smiled .

Philip found his laugh and his appearance very annoying .

It felt like he had seen the man somewhere before . However, he couldn’t remember where or when .

For that very reason, Philip was feeling really anxious about the second confrontation that was about to happen .
