“Boy, I can see that you’ve never held a sword in your life! Just because it’s a fancy one doesn’t mean that you’ll defeat us.” One of the thieves then suddenly started running at Kenta, once he was close enough, he took a swing at Kenta and hit his gut.

Even though it was a direct hit it only took ¼ of Kenta’s total health, unfortunately, he was pushed back into a wall, now holding the sword in his right hand, he swung blindly barely being able to stand, it was truly a pathetic thing to see.

 One of the thieves looked as though he was amused by this, “Haha! What did I tell ya, boy? Just because it’s some fancy sword doesn’t mean that you’ll defeat us.” He swung his wooden club once more, although now only hitting Kenta’s leg.

This situation was getting more dangerous by the second, Kenta knew that Heisha would help him if he just asked, but he can’t just give up now, he has to prove to himself that he isn’t useless as a hero.

 “You can take quite a beating Kenta” Heisha exclaimed, “But you also have to hit those guys back, first of all, hold your Sword in both hands, that way your swings will be more stable, you just have to hit them once and the Sword will burn them for quite a while, c’mon you can do it!”

 “Oy, ya old hag, be quiet! You’re next!” It seems the thieves had enough, one of them which was closer to Kenta was readying himself to swing his club once again, but at the same time, Kenta took the sword and held it in both hands, just like Heisha said the Sword was way more stable in both hands, without thinking about it Kenta swung it at one of the thieves.

 *Klank*

 It was a direct hit, or it would have been one, if not for the fact that the thief managed to block Kenta’s sword with his club, which was now laying broken on the ground.

 “Good job Kenta, he won’t be able to defend himself next time!”

 Kenta swung once again, now directly slashing at the thief, this time he couldn’t defend himself from Kenta’s attack, and the sword slashed right through his hands and upper body. It truly was a bloody sight. Although the attack didn’t kill the thief immediately it was just a matter of time until the blue fire that attached itself to him burned him and his belongings to a crisp.

 “You Son of a Bitch!” It seems the other thief was enraged by the death of his companion. “I’ll finish this quick, but you’re going to pay for this!”

 The Thief opened his bag and took something out of it, it looked like a vial of red liquid so thick that you couldn’t see through it.

 He drank all of the liquid at once, nothing seemed to happen at first, but after a while, the man started shaking uncontrollably, his appearance changed drastically, he grew in size, became visibly much stronger, his skin started turning red and all of his hair fell out, two black protrusions could also be seen on his forehead.

 Suddenly a small, red status window opened but before Kenta, he hasn’t seen one like this before.

 『 

      Name: Artificial Berserker         Danger Level : High

      This Creature was once human, but by consuming the blood of a pure-blooded

      Demon he became an Artificial Berserker, a half-human, half-demon species.

      It is highly advised to be careful of its attacks, which are both fast

     And highly damaging.

                                                                                                                                                             』

 This wasn’t good, it seemed that the creature now only thought about killing Kenta, he couldn’t be reasoned with anymore.

“AARGH” He didn’t even sound human anymore, neither did he look like one. Kenta had no idea what to do, he just simply stood there, paralyzed by his fear of death. Heisha noticed this and knew something wasn’t right.

 -this isn’t good, that’s at least a Medium Danger Level Monster, no way in hell will Kenta even stand a chance against him.- “Get out of there Kenta! You have no chance against him!” It seems that Heisha was alarmed by the sudden transformation of the thief, this wasn’t just a case of some street thugs, it seemed as they were a part of a bigger organization of some sort.

 “Mai, get Kenta and get out of here! I will take care of him!”

 “Okay, we’ll run!” Mai instantly agreed, although she wasn’t good at fighting, she still could feel the enormous energy levels coming out of the vicinity of the Artificial Berserker. She quickly ran up to Kenta and helped him get away.

 “AARGH, COUAHH” It seemed like the Monster wanted to run after them, but Heisha blocked its path just at the last second.

 “You’re not coming through me, buddy.” Heisha was serious, “I don’t know what’s going on here, but I’m going to figure it out even if it’s the last thing I’ll do as a Knight of Lavia!”
