"Heh. You are weaker than I expected."

Herms laughed as he continued to block Astaria's attacks with his Great Sword.

"…"

Astaria didn't say anything and continued with her attacks.

Unlike Nux, she didn't have to play with her opponent's emotions to achieve a victory. Her battle style was different.

A Battle Style that oozed out with confidence.

A bold, relentless, and dominant warrior.

That was what Astaria was.

Herms, on the other hand, held an advantage when it came to strength, however, Astaria didn't give him any chance to use that strength. From the start to now, she has been relentlessly attacking him, forcing him to defend and only defend.

The victor was this battle was already clear.

Of course, this didn't mean Astaria let her guard down, she continued to attack Herms.

Aiming at his legs, arms, shoulders, abdomen, back, neck, feet, forcing him to move his sword as much as possible and expend as much stamina as possible.

Herms didn't have a choice.

He knew that he would have a hard time fighting against Astaria, however… the battle would be this one-sided…

He never expected it.

Astaria was full of openings.

However, Herms felt like those openings are only there because Astaria was fighting against him and he used a Great Sword.

None of those weaknesses was something he could affect using a Great Sword.

It was as if Astaria has specially reformed her fighting style to match and perfectly counter his own.

Of course, Herms was giving himself too much credit.

He was not alone.
