After a few more participants finished up with their fights, the Novice Fight of the Sword Fight event was concluded.

There were only 100 people left, including Jay. Out of those 100 people, besides Jay, there were only 10 of them who were popularly known to everyone. And Jay decided to remember who these people were while the tournament master was doing a short intermission to keep the spectators begging for more action.

"Let's see. The ones that I know of..." Jay muttered softly as he looked at a huge and chubby guy wearing a really thick armor that was black in color. The only thing that was not protected by his armor set was his face since he was not wearing a helmet, but rather, a black hood and a mask.

"The Black Guardian, Ebonmare." Just like the title of this guy, he had the special class of Guardian. Guardians were known to be the best defensive class in the game. What's even more troubling was that Ebonmare was actually a solo player. It was only 5 years after the game's release when everyone learned about this and thought Ebonmare was a rare NPC all along.

"Looks like I have to let the Chicken Lord fight again. Let's see, who else looks familiar?" Jay then looked at a young lady wearing white clothes and leather pants. She had black short hair and a scar on her right eye. But what caught Jay's eye was not her looks or appearance, but rather, her sword that she used as a belt.

"Prince Frederick's secret bodyguard, the black knight Zero." Just like Ebonmare, at this point in time, no one knew that the prince's secret bodyguard and the strongest of the black knights was actually a young lady named Zero.

After that, Jay looked around again and saw two other familiar faces. One of them was Fiery Gallows who got wrecked by him during the Melee tournament, and the other was a swordsman from White Fang who had the weird name of Failed Blade.

The reason why his name was weird because it did not fit his character at all. He always duels with every player who had the primary class of swordsman. He can even wield four swords at the same time if he wanted to.

As for how he looks, he was wearing a blue-dyed lightweight steel armor set and never uses the helmet that comes with it.

"Besides those four, the other 6 participants who the spectators are cheering for are just normal NPCs or players I guess. Never heard of them." Just as Jay was finished his observations, the tournament master shouted on the top of his lungs.

LET THE EXPERT FIGHTS BEGIN!

...

On the huge tree where the nobles were...

While everyone else was busy watching the fight happening, Forbes stood up and excused himself and told everyone he was just going to take a piss.

"Who the hell cares! Go if you want to go." Lord Marvin shouted since Forbes blocked his line of sight.

Seeing that no one cares, Forbes left the huge tree and went to a random establishment nearby the arena.

...

Inside a random pub...

"Hey, you told me you can take care of that kid for me?" Forbes was currently chatting with a dark skinned guy with a muscular physique. The dark skinned guy had a really scruffy look, as if he did not take a bath for weeks. He also had black, long, and wavy hair.

"Sure. As long as you pay up." The dark skinned man gestured Forbes to hand over his payment and stood up from his seat.

"Here's 30 gold crystals. I will give you an additional 30 if you win the sword fight tournament. Also, make sure to keep this a secret." Forbes said in a hushed voice as he handed over a small bag to the guy.

When the dark skinned guy checked the contents of the small bag, he grinned and tried to contain his laughter as he vanished and probably went towards the arena.

"That kid is done for. Serves you right for messing with me." Forbes said to himself as if he had a great hatred towards Jay.

"I only wish my fiancee can see this kid make a fool out of himself. Gahahaha!!!"

...

Back on the arena...

Zero was currently fighting one of the participants who was well known within the crowd.

"Sir Walter! Don't hold back just because your opponent is a girl."

"Sir Walter, do your best!"

Cheers from the spectators boomed throughout the arena while the knight fighting zero held his fist high in the air as if he was telling everyone that it was an easy victory for him this time.

BEGIN!

Not holding back, Sir Walter took out his broadsword and a rectangular shield that covered his entire left arm. After that, he rushed towards Zero while holding his shield sturdily in front of him.

'Reckless Charge!'

This skill was commonly used by people with the class of Shield Warrior or Shield Maiden to stun their opponents. The only drawback to this skill was that they can only move towards one direction when charging.

"Pathetic." Zero said softly and flicked her sword towards Sir Walter. After doing that, she turned her sword into a belt again.

"Huh? What was that?" Sir Walter had this last line of thought before he lost consciousness. As for everyone else, they suddenly saw Sir Walter having a long X shaped wound on his body.

"Winner, Zephyr. Next!"

While everyone was shocked of the outcome and had different reactions, Jay was also surprised, but it was because of another thing.

"She's using an alias? Well, I suppose it's normal since she is a secret bodyguard of the prince..."

After thinking of this, Jay's token suddenly glowed in red and he knew it was his turn so he moved forward.

"Next fight, Jay Castle vs. Sir Galford!"

The moment Jay moved forward, everyone including him was surprised since his opponent was nowhere to be found.

"Sir Galford! After 10 seconds of inactivity, you will be disqualified from the tournament." The tournament master shouted as he counted loudly.

10...

9...

8...

7...

"Wait up. Sorry for that. Had to take a crap somewhere." A guy with dark skin and long hair said as he came forward. He was currently wearing a rusty set of iron armor and did not wear a helmet.

"Well, you don't have to tell us that. Begin!"

The moment Jay saw his opponent, the Chicken Lord suddenly panicked and cried out.

"Jay! Switch bodies with me now!"

Just as Jay was wondering why, the dark skinned knight suddenly vanished and Jay felt something slashing his back. The moment he felt it, he immediately switched with the Chicken Lord and his body miraculously avoided the full damage from that slash and moved 10 steps away from the dark skinned knight.

"Oh? Impressive." After saying this, the dark skinned guy vanished again and appeared on Jay's backside. But this time, 'Jay' avoided the slash from the guy's sword.

"Damn. Not good." The Chicken Lord said as he felt Jay's body getting numb.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Jay asked since this was the first time he saw the Chicken Lord having a serious expression.

"That guy over there is a Foreigner. Someone who does not originally belong to the Fatelord Plane. To be more precise, based on the way he moves and fights, I am sure he is a demon from the Netherworld."

Jay was surprised when he heard this but did not have time to process this information since the dark skinned guy kept on vanishing and appearing on his back. If it was not the Chicken Lord in control of his body, he might have already died a lot.

"Jay, no choice. I am going to use Night Sky. Since this guy is going for the kill, might as well do the same!"
