"This monster is quite clever. It took advantage of its superior physical strength and literally ripped the weapon from the girl's hands. I'm afraid not even every human would think of something like that." Said the man in the platinum mantle, watching the fight closely.
"I agree, they`ve taken only the first step to victory, but immediately returned to square one. Given the ferocious appearance of this monster, it won't be hard for it to fight with two swords at the same time." Said the woman in the silver mantle.
"Draven, what do you think? Can they win?" Arve said calmly, looking at the "Bloody Berserker".
Draven nodded: "Yes, they need to proceed carefully and take their time and then they can definitely kill it. It's only a matter of time, do you think differently?"
"Hmm, I can't tell yet, I don't know if all of them will stick to the alliance until the very end. It's a battle not only against the "Bloody Berserker", but also against their own desires and greed."
"Well, in this challenge, picking the right moment and breaking the alliance with others is an important part of the strategy. This is the only way to become the one who will deal the monster the final blow." Draven said slowly.
While the teachers were discussing the duel, the young people were preparing for the next attack.
In Evan's opinion, they were in very serious trouble. It wasn't even the fact that the "Bloody Berserker" now had two swords, but that Chloe was unarmed now.
She would no longer be able to hold the monster, thereby allowing Evan and Chloe to deal their blows. They needed to change their strategy urgently.
"Don't try to attack, let's see how dangerous it is now and we'll already act based on that. Right now the most important thing is not to let the monster hurt us." Evan said seriously, as he prepared for battle.
The others nodded and just as focused on their opponent's movements.
Whoosh.
The "Bloody Berserker" rushed toward the young men. It had looked menacing before, but now it was even more dangerous. Blocking two swords at once was nearly impossible, considering that Evan was the only one with a weapon.
Sure, Enni had brass knuckles, but they were clearly no match for blocking swords, especially used by the "Bloody Berserker".
Whoosh.
The monster chose Chloe as its first target. It`d taken away her weapons and had already greatly weakened the girl, so the "Bloody Berserker" wanted to get rid of her first.
Bam.
The monster jumped and swung both weapons over the head. Seconds later, it brought the swords down on Chloe, and it was going to kill the girl on the spot. But, Chloe wasn't going to stand by and wait for that.
Whoosh.
The girl quickly bounced to the side and a moment later the monster hit where she had just been standing. The rest of the contestants were in no hurry to fight the monster. Everyone acted according to plan. Evan's words were logical and strategically correct.
By dodging the monster's attacks, they risked nothing, but they could gain a lot of information about the enemy's altered fighting style.
Realizing that its attack was a failure, the "Bloody Berserker" decided to switch to another target. The monster quickly rushed toward Lars. It didn't want to attack Enni and Evan right now, since they were the most serious opponents.
Getting rid of Lars would help it in the battle. Naturally, the monster was unaware that the young man could heal. But the "Blast of the Edge" was a powerful enough spell to consider Lars a dangerous opponent.
Bam.
The young man dodged a blow that came within inches of him, and then bent down to bypass the next attack.
Whoosh.
Lars` "Warp" spun and a wall of water appeared between him and the "Bloody Berserker". The young man decided to cast the spell as he feared he wouldn't be able to dodge the following blows. He decided to be sure and spare no mana.
<Great, if the monster hurt Lars, we'd be in trouble now.> Evan thought to himself, he believed that the monster wouldn't be able to get through this wall, however, he was wrong.
Step.
The "Bloody Berserker" swung its sword cutting through part of the water barrier and stepped forward. It was not about to let go of Lars. Though it was difficult, the monster was going to pass through the wall, and it had no time to go around it.
Normally, the wall of water would have caused serious wounds to the one who`s passing through it, as the water was under great pressure. But, the "Bloody Berserker`s" armor protected it perfectly.
"Damn!" Said Evan, he didn't expect the monster to go all the way so easily.
Whoosh.
Seconds later, the "Magic Missile" crashed into the "Bloody Berserker's" back. Evan couldn't let the monster hurt Lars. However, the "Bloody Berserker" didn't even pay attention to this attack. The "Magic Missile" had left a few scratches on its armor and that was all the damage the monster had taken.
Step.
When it went through a wall of water, Lars had already managed to run back a few meters, but the "Bloody Berserker" was much stronger than the young man.
Whoosh.
The monster's legs tensed up and it lunged at the fleeing young man with a jerk. Lars had practically no way to escape. The water wall didn't stop the monster like he thought it would, now he had only one spell to hope for.
Whoosh.
While the "Bloody Berserker" hadn't gotten to Lars yet, the young man began to cast the "Blast of the Edge". The amber threads quickly turned into a glowing cube. Lars threw the cube toward the monster, planning to stop it.
Whoosh.
Lars understood that the monster would most likely avoid the attack, but this way he wanted to buy some time.
The "Bloody Berserker" could have thrown its sword into the cube like last time, but it decided not to act like that now. The monster was well aware that it should not be deprived of such an advantage as two weapons.
Whoosh.
The monster bounced to the side, and the "Blast of the Edge" flew past it and hit a root in the distance.
Boom.
Most of the root was destroyed, if that spell had hit the "Bloody Berserker", it would definitely have been in trouble.
Whoosh.
A few steps later, the monster reached and tried to cut Lars with its swords. The young man was lucky, the point of the swords went right in front of his nose, a few more second more and he would have died.
Bam.
Lars tried to bounce to the side, but suddenly he felt an incredible pain in his stomach area.
The "Bloody Berserker" failed to wound the guy with its swords, but that didn't mean it didn't have other ways to attack.
The monster kicked Lars in the stomach with all its might. Lars' face twisted in pain from such a powerful attack, and the young man flew back several meters, but that wasn't the scariest part.
"Fuck!" Evan cursed, rushing to Lars' aid.
Because of the powerful blow, Lars threw up a mouthful of blood, there wasn't much of it, but the "Bloody Berserker" was happy even with that amount.
Evan couldn't let the monster drink it, but there was no way he could stop it from doing so.
Whoosh.
Suddenly Chloe appeared behind the "Bloody Berserker", and the next moment the monster was thundering to the ground.
