Chapter 23: The might of an underdog ~2!

Charles Sinton. The Knight Commander of Gram Kingdom's the Royal Order. 

Apart from being the captain of the royal order for 15 years, there were numerous other titles that the knight commander won in his lifetime, by his utmost battle prowess and the greed of brawling on any possible occasion.

At the age of 10, he was thrown into the outside world to live life on his own and manage the things which at his age children don't even get aware of.

Fighting for bread to seeking shelter to spend one more night in peace, Charles fought all for it and survived somehow, the first seven years of being homeless.

At the age of seventeen, he started participating in regular military work majorly supplying water or helping the injured first, before he initiated to showcase his potential in weaponry and physical arts too.

Since his build was quite big from a young age, people got intimidated by him which resulted in him getting bullied regularly at the early stage of his battalion life.

That was when he killed for the first time and after that, he never stopped.

He didn't become a psycho murdered but a person who transformed into the worst nightmare for those who faced him with a weapon in hand.

He soon got promoted to a higher level in the military but he didn't care about it all and continued to seek the obsession he found in blood and gore.

His technique improved as he met strong opponents throughout his journey, and before he realized he already become the most strongest human in his birth land and got promoted to a post that no one could dare to look down upon.

After having a daughter he somewhat became a little steadier in life.

He had a wife at home and a cute little princess whom he could return to. 

After creating his own happy family, the thought of death gave him chills which further made him turn a little tamer.

Further adding the point that no worthy opponents were appearing anymore made Charles think that with his old age he also would become senile and leave the battlefield one day.

But today...

**CLINGGG** 

A kid of his daughter's age...

**CLANNNGG** 

Was making his blood rush to this extent....

**TNNNNNGGG** 

And making him remember how it feels like to be young again?!

"Yeah... that's what I like. Come on Austin, I know you have plenty in store."

Shouted at top of his lungs was the man in his mid-forties who currently had such vigor on his face that could pale the young veterans in comparison.

His blade which was still hot due to the interaction it had with Austin's spear, was making Charles' sturdy hand a little shaky. But he wasn't upset about it, rather he was feeling alive again.

The blond youth who had the tip of his spear pointed at Charles was panting slightly with a wide grin adorning his youthful face, along with the beads of sweat advancing his charm to the next stage.

For the past 15 minutes, Austin was exchanging blows with the knight commander continuously without break.

The huge man was holding his ground and blocked all the deadly attacks while practically without leaving the ground at all, in midst of the chaos.

The audience has long lost the sense of comprehensibility since the time they saw a mere newbie ranked Mage warrior landing a such decent blow on Charles at a speed that was even impossible for Kyouki to follow.

Even though Charles blocked all the attacks including the first one, it didn't change the fact that a young boy who still only faced one of his life's expenditures until now, was able to make Charles move to this extent.

The most shocked was the red-haired beauty beside Kyouki who was looking at the scene like she was watching the secret of the Seven Mysterious unravelings right in front of her eyes.

The other members along with Kyouki were thoroughly shocked too upon seeing this hidden side of Austin who was only called a good-for-nothing noble until now, but Venessa was not only baffled but also her pride was hurt severely.

Not because her papa wasn't able to deal with Austin in one blow but she was hurt to see how while exchanging blows with Venessa, Charles never had to move even an inch from his spot before he gives a clear-cut defeat to his beloved mercilessly.

And here, the person she loathed the most because of reason, that even being a man he never was able to wield a weapon properly, was now showing such skill which was not even comparable to what she have attained until now.

She was sure, that the current Austin would defeat her without even breaking a sweat. The way he was moving and inflicting his blows most efficiently, made it clear how above Austin have reached which Venessa couldn't even look up to.

She was hurting badly by this realization...

'When did he become this strong?! Didn't he use fake methods in the battle with the demon? How can he fight like that with papa with such efficiency ...WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING!!'

She was a mess...

Back in the arena, Austin exhaled deeply as he sensed that in between the blocks, Charles also gave some quite decent dents on Austin too.

'He ain't a knight commander for nothing after all...'

Focusing his senses on the person in front, Austin activated his [Silent Steps] and [Clear Mind] simultaneously to calm his raging consciousness which was urging him to let go of his restraints, and also tried to analyze the possible route to inflict real damage on his opponent.

(A/N:- Changed, Silent Mind -> Clear Mind)

'As I thought, this monster doesn't have any opening at all...'

A dry smile formed on his face as no possible route formed in his mind even after using the skill [Silent Step]. 

The reason was simple.

Charles, even looking like he was having the best fun of his life was still cautious enough to not let himself get damaged as per his enemy's desires. He could be laughing but his mind was actively working on his opponent's actions.

The two stood their places for slightly more than ten seconds before one of them again disappeared like a ghost before landing a heavy blow just above Charles' head which the latter one blocked masterfully using the hilt of his handle.

The tip of Charles' hilt and Austin's spear butt came in contact only for a mere a second before the latter one retracted his attack as he knew staying in a single place for a long time and Charles would entirely break him with his sheer strength.

The reason why Austin wasn't using his elemental skills which he has become quite confident in was...

Because he didn't want to ruin the fight he was enjoying this much.

He was sure that if Luna would have saw him being so careless with such a dangerous opponent, she might have went frenzy and instilled some senses for more than a day before she could have gained some sense of peace.

But he didnt has the time to think about her now when he was having so much thrilling fun that it was making his blood boil to this extent.

'Hupp!!'

Appearing with his extremely fast steps halting for a second, Austin twirled his spear and pierced it right toward the big wide open abdomen of his opponent.

"Not so fast, kid."

Since Charles wasn't able to bring his blade back in time, taking its massive size into the account, he used his bare hands to block the hard pointy tip of Austin's spear which made the latter mentioned baffled for a second.

'Got you!'

Smiling evilly, Charles brought his suspended sword at a furious pace toward Austin's exposed head, which if connected successfully could have opened Austin's skull like a watermelon.

But what Austin attained in the modified Lair was nothing to scoff about.

**DHAK** 

The edge of the blade landed just on the flesh of Austin's forearm which he raised to save his skull. Since the blunt side of the blade was hammered on Austin's hand, apart from the numb sensation, Austin felt nothing serious to get concerned about.

However, the expression on Charles's face became severe as with a frown he asked the boy who was becoming more than he ever expected.

"You...are you really at the age which you seem?"

A smile formed on Austin's face which was far from gentle before he muttered under his breath as his hand went to flashy work.

"Why don't you find it...'

Lifting the arm which was blocking Charles' blade, Austin deflected the edge of the blade, which naturally brought Charles back to his senses, but it was too late.

Moving his lower body in a very frightening manner, Austin moved his body further pushing the grip on his weapon further down the staff, before he lifted his right leg in the air, and with all his strength gathered in one place, he kicked Charles' heel with the back of his leg.

**DHAK**

"SHI...."

The receiver of such a heavy unexpected blow was naturally unable to maintain balance as Austin practically utilized all the strength he has accumulated in the lairs at a single blow.

**BAAAAMM** 

Naturally, if a heavy man falls on the ground, there would be quite a lot of noise in the background, but the heavy armor Charles' was wearing, created a crater upon his fall with Charles' humongous body as its center.

Just at the time when Charles' back touched the ground, Austin applied a massive amount of force at the spear and while coordinating with the fall he tried to utilize the momentum to his advantage.

"Hupp!!!"

Using all his strength, the veins on Austin's neck popped along with the heightened blood flow in his arms, as he applied an amount of force on his spear which could have even penetrated a Terror Rank Demon.

But the Knight Commander was far above those demons who Austin have fought and won over with. He was a being who wasn't regarded as the strongest in the whole nation of Gram, for nothing.

Blood dripped from the big palm of the big man, but Austin wasn't able to breach the block by a thin margin. The tip has mostly gone through Charles' palm muscles but wasn't able to pass through, before Charles finally came back to himself.

"Quite cheeky huh, but for how long...."

Smiling in a way that could frighten any human at this very moment, Charles' gave a very ominous vibe as he got a strong hold on Austin's spear end with his severed hand. 

Austin's eyes became wide as he felt his weapon not listening to him anymore before a sound leaked from his mouth ...

"Uh-Oh."
