Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword
Chapter 5 The Blood-Drunk Saint And The Trash Swordsman 2The white-haired knight smirked as he shook his head. "Think nothing of it ojisan, as your senior in terms of being a transmigrator, I need to give myself a handicap like this to make things interesting. Are you ready?"
Hiro who felt enraged at being belittled held his sword with both hands and made a basic sword stance similar to Kendo. 'Just you wait you Ikemen bastard, I will wipe that smile off your face just you wait.'
Seeing both combatants ready Rhyne started the match.
"This is a friendly thrashing match between Hiroyuki and Artorius, please exercise restraint. BEGIN!"
Seeing Hiro make a fighting stance, Artorius approached defenselessly like he had no worries
Hiro who needed every advantage he needed, raised the sword as he charged. "HAAAA!"
When the transmigrator moved to attack he suddenly felt a surge of energy pass through his body, things started to slow down and the sword started to feel a little lighter.
'This must be the effect of [Sword Novice], I will show you, I will make Rhyne empress with this skill as my foundation!'
Eventually, Hiro reached striking distance of Artorius and swung his sword down at full power, instead of evading the knight swung the thin twig in his hands and parried the heavy blow from the Isekaied programmer.
The force behind the twig had so much strength Hiro felt his entire body lift off the ground when their weapons collided. Hiro used the force from the parry to twist his body and swing the sword back.
'Wow! I just thought to leverage the force from his parry and my body spun by itself to make a counterattack. This is awesome! Is this also an effect of [Sword Novice]? I can do this!'
Despite the near-instantaneous counter that Hiro executed after the parry, Artorius again just swatted his blade away with the twig. Not stopping just with a parry, the handsome knight performed 6 quick trusts that struck Hiro in the throat, chest, both shoulders, and wrists.
*BAM* *BAM**BAM**BAM**BAM**BAM*
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven though the assault was made by a 90 cm twig no thicker than a toothpick, the blows felt like sledgehammers from the pain Hiro experienced. After the attack, his mind grew clouded and he couldn't hold onto his long sword. Hiro couldn't breathe and choked from the pain, tears fell from his eyes. The transmigrator fell to his knees while suffering from oxygen deprivation.
While gasping for air, his vision started getting hazy. Artorius walked in front of Hiro and check his condition. Hiro knew he needed to get help or he would choke to death. He couldn't speak due to his windpipe being bruised so tried to put his hands up to indicate his surrender.
Whether by fluke or design, Hiro soon found out he couldn't even raise his arms due to the blow to both his shoulders. Furthermore, he also couldn't move his hands! He just now noticed his wrists shattered from the blow. The spectators on the other hand quickly noticed the bruises showing up on Hiro's throat and wrists.
Rhyne, who had a hand on her mouth in worry stood up, but the princess didn't stop the match. Artorius then spoke at a volume only Hiro could hear.
"A trashing match means there is no surrender until the match time is over, that's three minutes ojisan. You had the gall to aim for Lady Rhyne! You are a toad aiming for swan meat you fucking trash!
"I have a blessing called [Eyes of Truth], so I can see your status even if you don't show me. From stats, and skills, to potential you have nothing a transmigrator should have. Let me show you how different we are ojisan. STATUS."
A blue screen showed up in front of Hiro's face which made him lose all hope of winning.

Artorius had over 7 thousand points in stats alone! He had a blessing, two main skills, and presumably so many secondary and passive skills that they needed to be minimized. The man also had two rings of S rank, three runes of A rank, and a couple of enchantments with running durations. This was all before he wore armor or even equipped a weapon.
'No wonder the twig felt like a sledgehammer. If 10 represented the strength of a normal man, Artorius had power over 210 times that. He also belonged to the Starfall battle harem and had Rhyne's name as a dominant. What the hell was a dominant?'
Ostensibly pleased that Hiro's countenance turned grim Artorius then proceeded to continue humiliating the newcomer.
"There are still two minutes Ojisan, let's enjoy this, shall we?"
Despite his situation, however, Hiro slowly started to stand up when he could breathe again. His eyes were alight with fighting spirit and his lips twisted into a smile. His visage gave everyone watching chills.
"How could this man continue to stand?" "Why didn't he just fall to the ground and surrender?" "Isn't he smiling? What the hell? This guy is crazy!"
Hiro on the other hand no longer heard the crowds and felt he went deaf; he only saw Artorius and the twig.
'I won't crumble you bastard. Life has never been easy for me; I will die before I give you the satisfaction of seeing me flat on the ground. I AM HIROYUKI MITSURUGI MY LIFE HAS ALWAYS BEEN HELL! BUT GUESS WHAT?! I SURVIVED! I will reach you someday I will beat your ass to the ground with a fucking flower stem as revenge for today!'
The white-haired knight then continued to curb stomped Hiro, but each time Hiro endured a blow like a zombie his spine always righted itself up. To prevent the match from being stopped Artorius avoided strong blows to Hiro's head and throat and instead hammered his limbs and torso with the twig.
Each hit felt like a collision from truck-kun. With over 210 times the strength of an average man, Hiro heard his bones fracture from the impact. But thinking how this bastard would smile if he fell made his heart burn in resentment!
'FUCK! I will break every twig I see if I survive this. Show me more bastard. I will learn everything and smash you to the ground using your moves in the future. I can endure pain, how many times do you think I got beaten up throughout my childhood? I'm tougher than a cockroach you bitch!'
