Some crazy guy was spitting out the same word again and again, something totally out of his comprehension. Osner’s head couldn’t grasp the situation, but his body wasn’t having it. The moment he was hit, he recognized Cloud as an adversary and fired a kick with the strength of his body fuelling the attack.

Instead of retreating, Cloud lunged. Osner’s thigh hit on his side. Even though he was only hit by the thigh, a lightning strike of menacing pain shot up. However, instead of frowning, Cloud smiled brightly.

“Carnock—!”

Grabbing Osner by the neck, Cloud slammed his right fist into his face. Osner slapped Cloud in the side with his fist, even as he was repeatedly punched in the face. Cloud could his organs thrumming. A normal person would have flinched and stopped, addressing their body first.

“Kukh.”

But Cloud let the pain go, along with a peal of laughter. His lips were wet with black, oxidized blood, and his laughter made him look like a madman. Jerking up, Cloud his head slammed into Osner’s.

“Uck!”

Osner’s body strained as he groaned. Cloud grabbed him by the neck and tossed him toward the ice barrier. Thud! The giant of a man rebounded off the barrier. Cloud rushed in and punched him in the face.

Thuck.

His head was embedded into the ice barrier. Grabbing him by neck, Cloud dragged his form all the way along the barrier. Tuck! Tuck! Tuck! Thuk! Osner’s head repeatedly broke and bobbed through the ice barrier.

Osner plunged his soles and slowly his feet into the plow-able soil. The drag slowed down, and when it stopped completely, he latched onto Cloud’s arm, batting him straight on the floor. It didn’t end there. This continued until his temper cooled down.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The floor cracked and dust rose.

The moment the dull sound stilled, Cloud flew through the dust and crashed into the ice barrier.

Osner, who caught up in an instant, fired a follow-up, but it was in vain. His fists pierced the ice barrier as he was hit with another head-butt at the cost of a miss.

“Carnock.”

Cloud laughed as Osner reeled and immediately went for a kick. Osner, struck by the side kick, was sent hurling at the icy dome.

Rumble!

The ice barrier began to collapse due to losing the walls that were supporting its weight. Leslie, who had been watching the fight blankly, came to her senses. She hurriedly dissolved the ice barrier.

Solid ice crystals melted into water and puddled on the floor.

“The barrier is gone!”

Alfred exclaimed. Alfred and his warriors had been hesitant to enter the ice barrier. Iledric, the knight, and the martial artist who went inside prior, hadn’t returned, while the ice barrier shook wildly like a boiling egg.

They hadn’t known exactly, but it was certain that a fierce fight was going on inside.

And now that the ice had melted away, they witnessed the fierce battle.

“Ha Ha Ha! You’re strong, boy. To the point where I want to make you my son-in-law! Very good!”

“Uh-huh.”

“Right. It’s a waste of time to talk, isn’t it? My thoughts exactly!”

The breastplate in the shape of a wolf’s head was already in tatters. Osner tore off his breastplate and pulled off his tunic like Cloud had. Thick and savage steaming muscles revealed themselves.

Immediately after, the two ran, hurling themselves towards each other. The floor cracked with every step they took. When the distance was close, they swung their fists and launched punches on each other mercilessly.

The monotonous actions seemed unending and not so impactful, but they were anything but that.

Fast. Destructive. Ferocious.

Along with blasts, the sounds of bloody blows resounded in succession throughout the arena.

Blood splattered and sometimes patches of skin came ripping off.

‘What the hell… where did those three go?’

Alfred, who looked around, soon found the trio lying on the floor.

‘Dead…?’

These three were adventurers who had made a name on the Continent. All three of them died horribly. And who killed them?

The answer was obvious.

It was right in front of him.

‘Damn it. What is this thing?!’

Alfred did not consider Osner, who was fighting Cloud, to be his father. To him, it was something beyond human. Because of that, the more he saw Cloud punching it, the more he admired him.

Because he was fighting toe-to-toe with a monster like that.

‘I had heard that the young hero has matured, but…’

This was something beyond.

Or was this only average among the heroes? Then was an army even worthwhile in this generation?

Alfred’s head was filled with all sorts of random thoughts. To put it bluntly, he should have sent a warrior to support Cloud, but he hadn’t. Nor did the other’s blame him for it.

Everyone in the arena was so overwhelmed by the fight between the two, that they couldn’t even dare to intervene.

“Crazy… crazy!”

…except for one person.

Katarina, who had been waiting impatiently outside the barrier, turned pale when she witnessed the vicious fight between the two.

Watching them fight, bloody and tattered, she didn’t admire or awed it like the rest.

How could she!

The one fighting over there, the one that was getting beaten up with bloody thumps, was the man she loved!

‘I-Isn’t he going to die like this?’

It seemed like he would.

Every time he got hit, she heard something crunching.

Loud enough to be heard even from such a distance!

“Stop! Stop!”

Eventually Katarina couldn’t stand it and stepped forward with the intent to tear them apart from each other. However, Shedia blocked her way.

“Shedia? What are you doing?”

“Cloud’s instruction. If sis tries to barge in, stop her.”

“What?”
