Kanna falls face down on the pool of his own blood flowing fro fro at him in amazement

『Truly unexpected……to counterattack froes of hisupwards

Of course, the purpose of this exam was to ascertain the extent of Kanna’s ability but Answerer’s interest lies in a different direction

Those who have witnessed Answerer’s way of fighting will unanimously say [it’s as if he already knew the opponent’s attack before it happens] And it was not metaphorical at all but a factual nail on the head

He predicted the opponent’s action in an instant froworks His insight boasts accuracy so eration to say he possesses [foresight] And the insight extends not only to the opponent’s action but also to what they are [thinking] No matter how clever a scheme they concocted, he would be able to read even that

In addition to the outstanding [insight] that serves as a pillar to Answerer’s strength, there exist another forte of his Regardless how unexpected an attack is and regardless of influence a person has that exceeds his own, even as he stood alone against an ar, he would still maintain his [composure] in spite of all those

Perhaps, even if he is on the verge of being decapitated by a guillotine, he would be able to [calhtest whine Although, the person in question would not let himself be driven into such corner in the first place

With the superhuht of rank adventurer [Those] are the main reasons why he was often selected to becoistration exam

With Answerer’s prowess, it is possible for examinees to exhibit their utmost without the risk of injuries That was also the reason why Lydeal entrusted hie of Kanna’s special examination

Now then, fro level of the C-rank promotion exa Ice Magic(?) was skillful, same can also be said of his movement His tendency to rely on little tricks also adds to his demerit

However, the person hiards to his defense to s He further co and decisiveness There was also a ic that does not e person, ined He should also be praised as an adventurer for being reluctant to reveal his hand to the point of needing a [non-disclosure] agree the exam but when push comes to shove, he did not hesitate to exhibit his uth dastardly methods

If Answerer wanted to uild master, the test should have ended on the occasion when Kanna showed that level of decisioncapability Truth be told, by the time when he came under assault of the waves of spikes, Answerer had inwardly concluded that Kanna had [passed]

However, watching the youngdaunted raised [interest] within Answerer

It has only been a istered as an adventurer There are talented ones who reached C-rank with siood example would be the retired [Ryuuken] whose valor is still fa adventurers

In the past, there were other future prospects shouldering expectations of glory, albeit to a lesser extent than Ryuuken However, not all of the those re futures, soave up their lives as adventurers while others lost it entirely

There were various factors as to why but theexistence] It would be the sort of existence that pulverized the [self-confidence] they built up to that point as one endoith exceptional talent

It is hard to say that Kanna is a [prodigy overfloith talent] Even so, looking at his approach alone, the youth is following the same path as those ould make a name for themselves in the future That is why Answerer deviated from an examiner’s conduct and cut off Kanna’s arm

ーーーWhat path would he choose when his er opponent?

If Kanna’s heart gives in after the exah he is sure to suffer the wrath of Lydeal who favors the young man, Answerer still proceeded to satisfy the [interest] born within hined himself to accept the wrath of the former S-rank

If possible, he hoped that this defeat will spur the young ht even be able to reach the so called real, those ere distinguished in the past also learned of their inexperience self through defeat and transcended it to become a true [luminary]

………Even if he recovers from this, Lydeal’s fury is an unavoidable consequence If he breaks down, then that would be it Answerer would be very pleased if he could bounce back up and face forward once again

Answerer became too [serious] in order to satisfy his [curiosity] which was too excessive for a reatly exceeded his expectation on two different occasions As soon as he tried to order Cindy to administer treatment, he committed a serious blunder on a battlefield, namely to divert his attention away fro from what remains of his left arm and aimed at the middle of Answerer’s broith the [blade] he for difference in ability with one arht, it swells up instead!?』

The reason why Answerer could not avoid Kanna’s last ditch [blood blade] was not simply because he was surprised Kanna could still move but also because he was pressured by Kanna’s [haki] He felt an overwhel man’s red pupil, an ominous [spirit]

《spirit as in willpower, not ice spirit》

In front of the ranker equivalent to a super dangerous e continued to caler to his life

『I see [Yasha], is it? The one who started inThat [spirit] is just like a [deement on his part but Answerer is all but asha ic nor does it lie within his trickery-filled brain

ーーHis true worth is his tenacious willpower that will never break even in his dying ot the pain on his cheek Indeed, it is not surprising that Lydeal has her eyes on hi while and looks forward to seeing how far the young o in the future

But before that, there is a problem that needs to be addressed first

「Bastaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard! !」

Answerer turn towards the fast approaching [black wolf], Chloe

As he , he unleashes a fist strike to her torso Chloe as bloay by the blow iround to restore her posture and attacks Answerer again alongside a roar

「How dare you do that to Kannsa spell you have there」

Seeing her one-handed sword clad in lightning made Answerer narrows his eyes with interest The idea of [adding] ical attribute to a weapon is a fairly rare occurrence That sword is probably sharper than usual and just a light contact with it will result in electrocution An intriguing use of ical formation

Answererthe sharp slashes unleashed by Chloe The reason why he did not pull out his sas because he concluded that the lightning would be transmitted if he parry her attack with a metal sword

Chloe’s furious assault was also within the scope of his assuer affection for their relatives than other races and they would boldly confront those who harainst a superior in status or power

She would not have been so livid had the exam conducted as it should be As an adventurer, she knows it is only natural to be wounded However, the last slash from Answerer was clearly a deviation froh to cause Chloe’s fury to erupt

Still, he did not think that she would attack with the intention to kill without hesitation But looking frole, she is fro wolf-type beastkin It is well-know that those who recognizes one as their [Lord] forer bond than those of blood

If that is so, is Kanna the [Lord] of this black wolf girl?

But then again, in the conversation they had earlier, Chloe looks up to Kanna but not to extent of revering a [Lord] No, perhaps the person herself is unaware but she nized him (Kanna) as a potential [Lord] If that person were to be seriously injured, then it’s no wonder that she would draw her sword, even against an ranked adventurer

『Oops there goesaware of his bad habit as a result of his sharp insight and deep comprehension, Answerer dares to step in closely towards the furiously slashi+ng Chloe Answerer, drawing in closer to the kill zone with sword still unsheathed, surprises Chloe and in turn dulls her sword At that point, Answerer did not hesitate to drive-in a full powered punch

「ーーghaaaa……………!?」

Chloe is bloay again but this tith after being hit by a pinpoint strike ai on a knee is theall out, I want you to calm down a bit」

「Don’t……rowls Since she could not put power into her lilare at Answerer instead He took it on with an unperturbed expression

「It ry at me but isn’t there someone you should worry about?」

From Answerer’s words, Chloe finally recalls Kanna’s injury and turn to him with her complexion pale Kanna, who should have fallen down face first, is lying on his back without her noticing and on his left side is the one serving as a witness to the fight, Cindy

She received the [disconnected left arm] that Barlhardt collected unnoticed, place the cross section closely and holds her hands towards the wound
