Reincarnated with an Analysis system. - Chapter 102 How Not To Win A Duel.

Sato stood in the arena with Benihime standing a few feet away from him. All around the arena were valkyries and beast people who came to watch.

‘How did I let it come to this?’ Sato thought to himself, eyeing as Benihime grabbed her sword from Isla.

Sato was forced into a duel with Benihime to see if he was worthy enough to be her husband, according to Isla’s words, and so the duel took place.

“Are you ready?” Benihime voiced out before pulling out her sword from the sheath.

Sato sighed, ‘How were they even able to gather this many people in a short time.’ He muttered.

A black sword formed in his hands before he took a fighting stance.

“Remember, it’s a sword fight, no magic.” Benihime informed.

”Yeah, I know that.” Sato responded with his sword resting on his shoulder, ‘I should hold back, I wouldn’t want…’.

Baam!

In the blink of an eye, Benihime already arrived in front of him and landed a fast swing of her sword.

‘She’s fast.’ Sato panicked before he hastily blocked the sword before it could cause any damage as his legs slid on the ground from the force.

Before Sato could stand his ground, Benihime had already whooshed to the front with another incursion.

Sato dropped his body to the ground so he could escape the attack that was strived at his neck.

“I missed?” Benihime questioned as she looked at Sato on the ground. Her sword strikes were so powerful that they caused loud thunderous claps throughout the entire arena.

Sato instantly reverberated away from Benihime and stood a few distances away from her, ‘Damn she’s stronger than I expected’.

<<She is the leader of the valkyries, former soldiers of the God of thunder Odin, she is also the keeper of three legendary weapons, so of course she’s strong>>

‘Oh, if that’s the case… I shouldn’t worry about going all out.’ A grin immediately hit Sato’s face as he held his sword tighter.

Benihime confronted him, both of them staring at each other till Sato flickered straight at Benihime.

The ground below him wrecked from the force as his body sped through the air, leaving Benihime excited to do the same.

Blinks of light. The ground shattering into pieces. Intense wind blowing inside the open arena, all these spectacles occurred while Benihime and Sato battled each other.

Benihime tried to land a direct hit on Sato, but Sato wasn’t willing to make that an easy task.

He grabbed her hand and tugged her close before giving her a powerful clothesline to the neck.

But Benihime didn’t go down readily, she snatched Sato’s arm that was around her neck and used her weight to thrust him down with her.

With both of them on the ground and their legs resting on one another from opposite directions, they immediately booted themselves.

Their feet connected and it sent their backs gliding on the ground while leaving an instantaneous sonic boom right in the middle.

While her back was siding on the ground, Benihime used her right hand to pinch herself from the ground before drilling her foot into the ground with one shove.

Sato was also on his feet but was presently greeted with a huge boulder falling on his position.

Benihime had used her leg to lift a part of the ground before she kicked it toward Sato.

Without hesitating, Sato held the huge rock with his hands while his feet sank to the ground from the tremendous weight.

He was about to place the rock on the ground when Benihime suddenly arrived at his front with her sword ready to hit the target.

Sato instantly dropped his right hand and used it to hold Benihime’s sword strike which caused his hand to bleed while he held up the huge rock with his left hand.

“You do know this is supposed to be a spar right?” Sato muttered as he looked at Benihime.

With a smile, Benihime replied, “Come now, don’t tell me you are getting cold feet!”.

She tried to pull her sword from Sato’s grasp but it didn’t budge, Benihime was stunned after she had tried to pull it as the fifth smile.

Unexpectedly, Sato pulled her close with the sword before tossing the rock to the side and pushing her to the ground.

Sato held down both her arms and placed his legs right between her thighs as he pushed his face forward, “I’ve pinned you, I think that means I won.” He uttered with a victorious smile.

“Who says it’s over?!” Benihime wrapped her legs around Sato’s back before she pushed herself over to the left which placed Sato on the ground.

Once she was on top, she immediately ran toward her sword and grabbed it before she dashed back at Sato.

Sato already had his sword with him and was getting ready to slash at her since she was close.

But just as he was about to take the move, a sudden flashback of the dream he had where everyone he knew was being slaughtered immediately occurred to him.

His face was instantly filled with dread as he was slowly sinking into the illusion, watching the man in a black cloak and hat, walking toward him.

“Stay away from them you bastard!” Sato yelled.

Benihime and everyone who heard Sato’s scream were alarmed when they noticed his eyes gleamed and magic whooshed from his body and sword.

“Lady Hime!” Isla suddenly yelled as she ran out of the crowd.

Benihime herself could see the huge energy charging out of Sato’s sword which was already aimed at her.

She used her leg to stop her momentum before she placed her sword to the side and obstructed Sato’s attack.

But Sato’s attack was so potent that Benihime couldn’t stop it wholly; she struggled to move the sword attack away from her.

Like a speeding arrow, Sato’s sword suddenly shattered Benihime’s sword and went deep into her arm before it sent her flying halfway across the arena.

Her body tumbled for a while before it stopped and she slid on the ground leaving a trail of blood on the path.
