One sided beat down

Upon hearing my request one of the examiner's will be the judge of the duel and they even allowed us to use one of the testing rooms. That guy Roland brought about ten of his friends but he didn't bring that one guy what was his name, oh right Shun, I wonder why?

The judge then spoke "The rules of this duel are as follows. Victory is given to the last man standing. If one side concedes then victory will be given to the other. Also if one kills his opponent then he will automatically lose. In this duel, you may use anything at your disposal. Do both contestants agree to the terms?"

"I agree" both Roland and I agree.

Hearing our response the judge nodded his head, "get ready." The moment he spoke, all of us took a stance. Roland and his ten lackeys took their sloppy stances, well except for Roland who actually had a pretty good stance.

I didn't want to do this but that guy just said something unforgivable. I took a stance, my true stance that I developed to kill the demon lord. Even if their weak I will go all out. I lowered my center of gravity and released a great amount of killing intent.

We weren't even starting but the opposition looked at me with fear their eyes. Those eyes tell me that they think this is hopeless all except Roland. He wasn't trembling as much anymore.

I see even though he was like that he is the son of the guard captain. Once he holds his sword he changes huh. The Judge was looking at me worried. He must be thinking that I would kill these kids. Well, I won't go that far, but I will teach Roland an unforgettable experience.

The judge hesitantly started the match. On the get-go, I used [wind step] to close the distance. When I suddenly appeared in front of them, being consumed by the fear that they felt through my killing intent they swung down their swords clumsily.

I used [falling rain] to counter, this was a counter I used in my previous world. Upon learning the techniques of my current life, I made great improvements to it. I combined some techniques from the water style to improve upon it. It looked like a basic counter move that uses the flow of the opponent to your advantage.

As their clumsy blades fall, I with my greatest speed used the momentum of their attack against them and forced them all to trip. After that, I released a series of blows aiming at the back of their necks. I hit them with the blunt side of the sword. After only seven seconds all ten of Roland's lackeys fell, and all that was left was the leader himself, Roland.

Roland's POV:

'How is this possible he was supposed to be a fake? How can he be so strong?! I who had nothing but the sword, who kept swinging my sword until my hands bled lost to this guy who has everything, Why?!'

Roland couldn't help but tremble in both fear and irritation as Edge approached him. 'I see... How can life be so unfair, he already has everything. Why is he given such talents as well...'

Edge's POV:

Roland looked like he was about to say something. He must be ready to surrender but I won't allow it. I used [wind step] and approached him.

I then used another one of my techniques from my old world [sealing pressure points]. This was a technique I can only use if the opponent was easy to predict and was weaker than me. I hit him in a pressure point that will stop him from speaking for a short while.

Trying to talk but was unable to do so. Roland looked at me confused. How could I let it end that easily when you shamed my parents' names? I threw my sword away and hit him with a back fist. Roland's body flew two meters away. Yet even with that kind of blow he still held tightly to his sword.

He looked at me in anger and attacked me with a side slash. I easily dodge and countered with an uppercut. I then unleashed a series of blows with my fist. Roland was about to fall but I didn't allow it. I kicked him upward so that he doesn't fall. His eyes were now wavering as he was about to lose consciousness.

As if I will allow that, you must feel this pain until I'm satisfied. I pressed another one of his pressure points. It was a pressure point that allowed him to stay conscious for five minutes no matter what kind of excruciating pain he experiences. After I did that I kept on attacking him until every part of his body was bruised and bleeding. I then lifted him up and threw him aside. His body was a frightening sight to behold. The judge checked if Roland was still alive, and after learning of Roland's survival the judge announced my victory, but there were no cheers.

As I was about to leave I saw Roland laying on the ground still holding onto his sword, up until the end he didn't let go. "I will let you fulfill the promise in a later date, you better be ready," I whispered in his ear.

I walked towards Gerard and Eri and different from what I was imagining, they didn't look at me in scorn but instead they looked at me in pity.

Eri approached me and signaled me to lower my head. I did so and she started patting my head. While Eri was patting my head, Gerard was smiling bitterly in the background. The other people present dispersed as we moved out of the examination building.

The first to greet me was my sister "Big Brother! Welcome back." She jumped into my arms. My family was there waiting for me and I noticed Gerard talking to an older man who must be his father. Eri was also talking to her parents.

My dad approached me and asked, "How did it go?" I told mom and dad everything that happened in the testing area. What my ranks were and the duel in the end, also the reason why I fought.

My mom gently hugged me and said "It's alright Edge." She felt warm my whole family did. These people do not deserve to be talked about that way. I tightly hugged my mom while my little sister said "Good job, big bro."
