Charles vs Elizabeth

Walking to the center of the arena, Thomas thought, "My opponent will be Elizabeth, a swordswoman who will have more distance for her attacks than me since I'm a martial artist. I need to work with counterattacks to defeat her."

Upon reaching the center, Thomas looked at Elizabeth, a 5'6" blonde with waist-length hair, sea-blue eyes, and an extremely beautiful complexion. He noted her weapon, a rapier, which had high speed and accuracy, and reflected, "I need to surpass her in speed to win this duel!"

Despite Elizabeth being ranked D and Thomas being ranked F, Jade had confidence in Thomas's abilities due to the strong being inside his body, which was allowed by the rules.

Thomas and Elizabeth faced each other as Jade explained, "It's going to be a one-on-one fight, you can use all your powers, I'll interfere if I think it's necessary. Got it?" The two nodded and walked away, and Jade left the arena.

Jade asked, "Are you ready?" To which both Elizabeth and Thomas nodded.

Jade calmly looked at the two of them and said in a loud voice, "Begin!"

The arena fell silent as the two stood motionless, until Jade grew tired of waiting and asked, "Are you going to fight?!"

Elizabeth began to walk calmly towards Thomas, who did not move, as his objective was to counterattack and shorten the distance little by little.

All that could be heard were Elizabeth's calm steps towards Thomas, who was already in a mixed profile guard fighting pose (arm forward high). Anxiety descended in the arena, and suddenly Elizabeth released a blow that could not be seen with the naked eye, a direct blow to the heart of Thomas. However, when it was about to land, she stopped the blow and spoke in a calm tone, "You lost."

Thomas, shocked that he was beaten so easily, was thinking, "When did she get here?"

Elizabeth kept her rapier in its scabbard and said to Thomas, "Why don't you use your familiar? Without using it, you won't be able to face me."

Thomas replied, "I can't control it. If I let go of it, people might get hurt. It's better not to use it."

Elizabeth thought a little and said to him, "You really are pathetic." She sighed and headed towards the exit of the arena.

While Thomas was sad and thoughtful, he heard a voice in his head, "Do you want me to fight her?"

Thomas replied in a sad tone, "No, you'll end up blowing her up. I'll just go back."

Charles responded, "I'm not going to kill her. I'm going to fight her using physical strength."

Thomas replied, "I don't trust you, so no!"

Charles sighed and said in a weary tone, "You don't have innate ability. Despite having the manual, you can't use it because you're too weak, and the only power you have is me. You don't want to use it, Hahahaha."

Thomas stopped walking and lowered his head, saying, "Aren't you going to kill anyone?"

"No," Charles replied.

When Elizabeth was about to leave the arena, the mood in the air changed. Everyone present felt an evil presence. Elizabeth turned and looked at Thomas, seeing his completely black eyes with a moon tattoo on his forehead. She thought, "He is extremely strong."

Charles, who was repressing his aura as much as he could, began to speak, "You wanted to face me, didn't you?" Elizabeth calmed down and started walking to the middle of the arena, drawing her rapier. Jade, who was ready to interfere in the fight at any moment, thought, "I'm stronger than him, right?" Anna, Amanda, and Brian were surprised, but no one dared to say anything. They felt as if they had no right or power to speak.

Charles looked calmly at Elizabeth and said, "Are you ready?" Elizabeth wanted to answer but didn't have the strength to speak. Even though Charles was repressing all of her aura, it was still too strong for a simple D rank to handle. Hearing Elizabeth's silence, Charles began to think about what to do. After a while, he snapped his fingers, and a large barrier was created around the arena. He began to say, "This barrier has the characteristic of eliminating any presence in it, but I am quite disappointed to think that it was you who were calling me to a fight. Hahaha."

Elizabeth felt that all the aura of that being was erased. She calmed down and said, "I'm ready!" Charles held out his hands and made a provocative gesture, a gesture that called her to come up. Elizabeth noticed such a gesture and advanced fiercely, using her innate skill (guaranteed hit). No matter how strong or how fast you are, no matter if you have monstrous resistance, with this skill, everything is ignored!

As Elizabeth walked forward, she looked at Thomas, who appeared to be calm, with both hands in his pockets, as if she were not a threat to him. Then she mentally said, "You will pay for having underestimated me." When the distance between Elizabeth and Charles was 2 meters, she activated her innate ability and calibrated so that the blow was in the heart, thrusting towards her heart. She mentally said, "There's no way to escape it!" When her blade was 1 cm away from hitting Thomas, he disappeared.

Elizabeth looked on blankly, and suddenly someone was behind her saying, "A strong innate ability, I admit, but it's still not something that can affect me." Charles, as he spoke, grabbed Elizabeth's head and threw her to the ground. The impact was so great that it destroyed the entire arena.

Charles looked at Elizabeth, lifted her by the hair, and said in a calm tone, "Hey, don't pass out yet, I didn't have enough fun." Jade, seeing such a situation, tried to interfere, but the barrier that Charles made didn't allow her to enter. Even using her S-class powers, it didn't make a single scratch on the barrier. The only thing she could do was watch the fight unfold.

Charles saw that Elizabeth was almost dead and began to test his powers. The first was the cure. He then mentally said, "Heal yourself completely!" In the blink of an eye, all of Elizabeth's injuries were healed.

Charles released her and said, "Wake up." Elizabeth, who was unconscious, woke up and looked at the being in front of her. She lowered her head and said in a sad tone, "Is the fight over?" Charles smiled and said, "No, I have a few things to test, so I'm going to use you as a guinea pig."

Elizabeth lowered her head, choked back her tears, and drew her rapier. In reply, Charles said to her, "But let's do it like this to make it more fun." He snapped his fingers, and Elizabeth, who was in the D class, immediately advanced to the S class. He began to speak, "If you can't hit me, I'll drop your rank back to D rank. But if you can hit me even once, I'll let you be an S rank. Is that good for you?"

Elizabeth, who felt a gigantic amount of power, began to think, "What is it? Am I an S class?" Charles, seeing that she was confused, asked again, "Is it good for you?!" Elizabeth decided to leave the doubts for another time and spoke in a confident tone, "Yeah!"
