Zakriel and Barney Junior's match, where both sides seemed to be going toe-to-toe against each other, lasted only for a few minutes.
The next second, right after Nalgi finished speaking, Zakriel pushed his entire weight onto Barney Junior.
*Ding!*
A sharp noise rang, and Barney's sword got stuck in a bizarre angle due to Zakriel's ax.
Barney Junior's pupils shrank.
"You fight like a Northlander..." Zakriel's left arm moved up diagonally, forming a cross together with his right arm. He accurately grabbed the shield that Barney wanted to use to attack him.
"But you still think like a Constellatiate."
Barney Junior gritted his teeth to withstand Zakriel's strength. Both of them were in a stalemate. They shuddered slightly.
"You must know that the Northlanders have nothing on their minds when they fight…"
In the battle of strength, Zakriel leaned towards Barney Junior, who was close to him, and he shook his head expressionlessly.
The remaining three chapters will be next week.
Just to be clear, there won't be any chapters on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday because of the system, so we're releasing the first 5 of the 8 chapters from Thursday to Sunday in one go, then the next three next week.
