That's right, the True Name of the Berserker in Red was Spartacus.

He is the strongest Gladiator and the ringleader who raised a large-scale rebellion of slaves in Ancient Rome known as the War of Spartacus.

A Thracian gladiator captured by Romans became a symbol of rebellion. He was affiliated with a gladiator training camp in the Campania region, but escaped with seventy-eight of his comrades in 73 B.C. He managed to repulse an assault force of nearly three thousand dispatched by the Romans, leading to him being known as a hero who inspired armed uprisings by slaves in many places. His army grew to seven thousand men, and they kept defeating the Roman army without losing a single battle. They were unable to cross the Alps and instead decided to head to the island of Sicily. They hired pirates to make the voyage but were betrayed and attacked by the Roman Legions. He always fought at the head of the front lines, and even when the revolt was subjugated by the army, he fought until his death. Perhaps due to that, Spartacus' corpse is said to have been torn to pieces and never found anywhere on the battlefield afterward. It is believed his body was scarred beyond recognition after he fell in that battle.

Being his first and only loss, he remained a shining beacon of hope to the under trodden slaves. His name was carved in history as a hope of the oppressed humans.

It was also the reason why Sparatus was so popular.

Spartacus was also known as a hero who was able to reverse the unfavorable battle and win the battle!

Because of his popularity as the ”Hero of Reversal”, if he was summoned in the area where his popularity was very popular, he would be able to reverse all the defeats and turn them into a victory.

Presently, Spartacus was summoned to Romania, and he couldn't reach his ultimate power, but because of his legend which capable him to reverse any unfavorable battle, its durability reached a very scary level, and even if he was defeated a lot of times, he could still fight as long as his brain and heart were still intact.

If that was the case, then it wasn't a problem for Raikou to defeat Spartacus since the Magic Power which was supplied by Haru was very cheating and made Raikou's power reach a very scary level even if she wasn't in her homeland.

The real problem was because Spartacus possessed a skill and Noble Phantasm that turned him into a very troublesome and scary opponent

Honor of Suffering: B

Honor of Suffering is a skill that makes those who have it become more powerful as they are inflicted more pain. The cost used to heal injuries via Magecraft or similar methods is reduced.

In the instance that Spartacus' injuries are repaired by means of Magecraft, the required Magical Energy cost is quartered. Also, even without the use of Magecraft after a certain amount of time, the wound will automatically proceed to be healed. In truth, the pain inflicted heightens his combat focus, allowing him to tap into his full potential; by corollary, if he is not injured, he cannot fight at full strength. The notion that ”one must first conquer the pain inflicted by the enemy to attain absolute victory” is a fundamental premise of Spartacus' tactics.

Honor of Suffering was Spartacus's personal skill.

With this skill, the more he was wounded, the more damage he suffered, or the more abused he received, the stronger he would become.

Spartacus's Noble Phantasm also gave him his full potential and full advantage of his personal skill.

Crying Warmonger.

Crying warmonger: The Howl of the Wounded Beast is an ability that increases Spartacus's power with the more damage he receives, symbolizing him as having been a hero who ”always won by reversal.” It is the type where his legend itself was sublimated and turned into a Noble Phantasm.

The ability is a continuously active-type Noble Phantasm, converting part of the damage inflicted by opponents into Magical Energy and storing it within his body. The energy accumulated within can be used to boost his physical abilities and self-healing, and the efficiency of the conversion rises more as his physical ability decreases.

This was what made him a very troublesome opponent.

Of course, Raikou didn't know about this matter, and could only slash her sword, causing more damage to Spartacus's body.

Her katana kept emitting thunder and lightning, charred and destroying Spartacus's body without mercy.

Along with the sound of flesh which was slashed apart, Spartacu's body suffered more damage again and again.

”Hahahaha! More! Give me more, oppressor!”

Spartacus grinned, ignoring the injuries on his body, just waving his sharp blade on his hand blindly.

The sharp blade cut off the street lamp and smashed the wall of the house. Each attack, launched by Spartacus, could cause a lot of damage to anyone, but all of them his attack couldn't even catch the shadow of Raikou, who skillfully dodging his attacks.

In Raikou's eyes, Spartacus's attack was too monotonous, and it was very easy to see through those attacks.

However, Spartacus's attacks had become even more terrifying, and the destructive power had become stronger, so Raikou didn't dare to look down on this crazy servant.

”Dear....”

Compared to the enemy in front of her, Raikou was more cornered about the situation of Haru.

However, Spartacus was an opponent that was very hard to deal with, it kept crawling back no matter how many times that he was wounded by Raikou's katana.

Raikou realized that this situation was very troublesome and she needed to end Spartacus with a decisive attack. She took a deep breath and knew that Haru didn't limit her uses of Magic Power, he also told her that it was alright to use Noble Phantasm as much as she wanted. However, she wouldn't do so unless the situation was calling, but the opponent in front of her was too troublesome and she could only use her Noble Phantasm to defeat him.

”Dear, I have to use my Noble Phantasm!”

Just when Raikou was about to use her Noble Phantasm, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of her. She was surprised and couldn't help but exclaim.

”Dear!”

Spartacus noticed an existence beside him and was about to swing his blade, but his head was grabbed and he was thrown away.

*BOOM!* *BOOM!* *BOOM!*

Spartacus was thrown with incredible force and his body crashed into several houses, destroying everything on its path before he landed on the ground and caused a huge crater on it.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOM!*
