"Ding! Please choose!"

"1: Take a bite of Motoyasu Kitamura and receive a 1% completion reward for the Karp template."

"2: Slap Motoyasu Kitamura hard, and receive a 1.5% completion reward for the Garp template."

"3: Beat Motoyasu Kitamura to a bloody state, and receive a 2% completion reward for the Karp template."

Hearing the voice of the system in his mind, Jason froze for a moment. It was impossible to let Motoyasu Kitamura go.

Of the three options, the third is the most difficult but also the most rewarding.

"I choose No. 3."

Jason, who had just obtained the Karp template, was still full of confidence even though it was only 5% complete.

After making his choice, Jason looked at Motoyasu, who had grabbed his collar, and said, "If you think I'm lying, why don't you try it out for yourself?"

"This method is feasible. If Jason can erupt with a stronger force than before, it will prove that he did not use all his strength in the competition with Myne, and he did not intentionally injure her."

At this moment, Ren propped his chin and spoke, obviously agreeing with Jason's statement.

"No mistake, this logic is sound."

Itsuki agreed.

"It doesn't matter to me. I've disliked you for a long time anyway, so let's have a fight."

Motoyasu , who was already angry, pushed Jason away and then turned to the king. "Your Majesty, please agree to a competition between us."

"Well, since that's the case, there's nothing we can do about it. But Myne must be sent for treatment first."

The king made no secret of his feelings towards Jason and looked at him viciously. If looks could kill, he would have killed Jason hundreds of times.

After Myne was sent for treatment by some people, an open space was cleared again in the hall to provide room for Jason and Motoyasu.

"Are you ready? I warn you in advance that if I try my best, you'll be killed by me in seconds."

The two were 10 steps apart. Jason shrugged and spoke in a nonchalant manner, as if he didn't care about Motoyasu at all.

Such a contemptuous expression and such contemptuous words made Motoyasu even angrier.

"Stop talking nonsense, come on!"

Motoyasu raised the spear in his hand and pointed it at Jason opposite him.

Not to mention... this posture was quite handsome and impressive.

"As expected of Mr. Spear Hero, he is really handsome."

"The Spear Hero is truly impressive."

"He is handsome enough, but is he really a match for the Shield Hero? Just now, the Shield Hero almost killed Myne in an instant. If it's true, as the Shield Hero said, that he's using his full strength now, I don't think the Spear Hero can win."

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could the Spear Hero compare... to compare..."

Those adventurers were still admiring, discussing, and guessing when suddenly... everyone's eyes widened.

...

"Now that I'm ready, I'll go!"

Before the words fell, Jason leaned forward slightly, his legs exerted force, and he sprang out like a leopard.

His speed was twice as fast as before, and it took almost the blink of an eye to cross a distance of 10 meters.

"So fast!"

Seeing Jason's speed, Motoyasu suddenly opened his eyes wide and was amazed. The spear held in his right hand had already stabbed towards Jason's head.

The first strike was aimed at a fatal point. If hit, Jason's head would naturally be directly pierced by the spear.

In fact, it wasn't that Motoyasu was being ruthless, but Jason's speed was so fast that he didn't even have time to think, so he could only stab out instinctively.

Seeing that the spear was about to stab Jason in the head, some women around screamed.

Jason tilted his head slightly, seemingly dodging in a panic, but...

Motoyasu Kitamura's spear was crawling like a snail in his eyes, extremely slow, and everything was under control.

The purpose of this thrilling maneuver was to quickly approach Motoyasu.

Seeing Jason closing in, the long spear had just been thrust out and could not be retracted. Motoyasu Kitamura was too late to retreat, and panic appeared in his eyes.

Jason's tightly clenched fist was like a spring compressed to the extreme and then released, hitting Motoyasu Kitamura's chest with all his strength at lightning speed.

Click!

The sound of bones cracking followed.

Motoyasu Kitamura flew backwards and hit the wide pillars in the hall before stopping.

"Pfft~~~"

A large amount of blood spewed out of his mouth as if it were free.

Immediately afterwards, Motoyasu Kitamura slowly slid down the support beam, and finally sat down on the ground, his head lowered unconsciously. It was unclear whether he was dead or alive.

On the other hand, Jason still maintained his punching posture, with a calm expression on his face, as if he had expected this result.

...

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could the Spear Hero be able to compare... to be compared... to be dealt with by the Shield Hero with a single punch!"

"My God, the Shield Hero is too scary!"

Speaking of it, the confrontation between Jason and Motoyasu seemed to be very long, but it ended in an instant. Before the adventurers had reached any conclusions, Motoyasu was blown away.

There were no gorgeous skills, no magic that inspired fear, and no means that seemed underhanded. A simple punch, clean and neat, was even more shocking.

Apart from exclamations, no one knew what to say.

Ren and Itsuki, who had been watching the two of them fighting, also had surprise in their eyes.

They glanced at each other.

"Can you fight at Jason's level?"

"It's obviously impossible. Blowing someone so far away with one punch is simply not something ordinary people can do."

"Is it a characteristic of the Shield Hero class?"

"Probably not. The king said just now that the Shield Hero is a class with relatively low attack power. You can tell by the shield on his arm. In most major games, this class plays the role of a tank, and the attack growth is generally low. It wouldn't be this high."

"Since it's not related to the class, could it be because of Jason himself?"

"I can't rule out this possibility. Jason... Jason... this should be the name of a American person but he looks like... could it be..."

"Martial arts!"

Ren Amaki and Itsuki Kawasumi shouted this answer in unison. In their opinion, only Jason, who had practiced martial arts before, could be so strong.

Ren and Itsuki shouted this answer in unison. In their opinion, only Jason who had practiced kung fu before could be so strong.

"Whether it is or not, let's go and see what's going on with Motoyasu first."

As Ren said, he quickly ran towards Motoyasu, the distance was very close, and he came to him within a few steps. He saw that the corner of his mouth was still bleeding, and his chest was slightly sunken.

Even if he hadn't studied medicine, he knew that Motoyasu was not doing well, at least with serious internal injuries.

"Please hurry up and call the doctor, he looks like he's dying."

Hearing Ren voice, the king recovered from the shock and hurriedly shouted: "Come on, treat spear hero."

Soon, several men in robes came over and released Motoyasu like a healing spell, which saved his life.

"Is there no one-hit kill? It seems that the limitations of the Shield Hero profession are really too big. i must find a way to improve the completion of Garp's template."

Looking at the tragic appearance of Motoyasu, Jason thought about it with an expression on his face. Having read part of the plot of the original novel, he didn't have much affection for the character of Motoyasu, so naturally he didn't care about his life or death.
