Chapter 04: Familiar A note from Bragi Fire Leave some comments and reviews if you like it He was not surprised that the squire could deflect it, he was banking on it. After all, that squire had done this before. Though at that time, he did it when he uses a stick. There were also a few times where the squire did this method. Using his sword to simply deflect or defend through it The reflex of this person is impressive. “I’m no longer a person who would stumble easily” That old men behind him should have die. After that old men die, this squire would saw him covered in mud, rushed toward him and kills him That is the chain of events of some of his other death. After the old men die, it was his turn. So, right now, Henrik wanted to change his fate and see if he could also change the fate of those old men. So, he did a pre-emptive attack. Before he attacks, Henrik had pressed his feet and made sure his footing is steady. “Steady” he reminded himself as he made sure his feet dig deep into the ground. Not mud, not soft soil, but the ground It seems most of the time he died is because of his footing. One wrong move, he stumbles and the moment he falls, the game already ends When you fall, there is not a lot of method you could use to defend against your enemies. And it is not like he learns Jiujitsu and other ground wrestling method when he was alive. He knows how to punch, knows how to kick, knows how to use a gun. But wrestling? That is not what he had learned. So, once he falls down, it is checkmate Especially with a body as weak as he is now. The squire deflected and then in that brief moment, the squire slashes down toward him. Swoosh! The slash was so fast that one could hear the sound of the wind being cut When you are just inches between life and death, and a few feet of distance is the difference between life and death, your senses tend to go into overdrive and every noise, every movement felt amplified, Henrik felt like he could hear the sound of the wind being slashed but unlike before where he would panic, this time, he was abnormally calm “Treat it as a BOSS character in a game” Henrik thought to himself in his mind Henrik smiles and kicks the ground and he rolls to the side, the sword is gripped tightly The clash created sparks of fire and Henrik moves is agile and swift. He dodges to the left, and then roll further left, a sword strike and misses him by inches. Henrik look at the squire and there is a smirk on his face “Miss” he said with a mockery on his face. Those who is seeing this battle, those who know Henrik was shocked to see that the young kid from their village have such moves. Henrik doesn’t know this but around him are all people that knows him. Henrik knows that these people know him. He just doesn’t know who they are Stepping inside the reach and attack. That is the method this squire had used against Henrik before He just steps inside his reach and that is when he is dead. But just because right now it seems like Henrik had the upper hand Henrik did not feel like he is out of the danger zone at all. It is because he had experienced this kind of things many times. Nine times to be exact He could make all the right moves, and one wrong move could seal his death. It is not like a game where he has a health bar and as long as his health bar did not go to zero he would still be alive In life, in battle like these that separate life and death by inches, even if he made all the right moves, even if he deflects every attack, even if he defended every strike, one slash to the throat, one shot to his head, one bash that could cripple him is enough to kill him Henrik was thrown into a hell-mode difficulty the moment he appears in this world. He had no armours; his body himself is weak sign of not eating well. And he had to fight a person like this squire. Any other person would have died earlier and would already have no guts to face such a person. Of course, it is even more so for someone like Henrik. But he is
