Chapter 52 - Overwhelmed
"Hahahaha!"
The other party frowned in displeasure when he saw Randy laughing while holding his stomach, and then coldly asked: "What is so funny? Why are you laughing like a mad man all of a sudden?"
"Huh?" Randy abruptly looked up, waved his hand dismissively and then said: "Oh, nothing, nothing. I just thought that your character name was really funny. I mean why add 'Baby'? Why not just keep it as Sword Master?"
Hearing his comment, the other party looked at him as if he was an idiot and then spoke in a mocking tone: "What do you know? Someone already chose that nickname, so I had no choice but to pick something on the spot. Besides, what is wrong with 'Baby' since I am not an actual sword master yet."
Randy still did not understand the other party's choice of words at all and so, he continued to ask in confusion: "But still why a 'baby' specifically? Why not something that sounded cool, like 'Armored Sword Master', you know, since you have so much armor on right now. Then again, why do I care? Alright, shall we begin with our fight then."
"Hmph! Since you are a newbie without even the proper equipment, I will let you attack first, after all I don't want to bully a weakling." The other party snorted and then said in response.
Randy appeared surprised and then he doubtfully muttered: "R-Really? Are you sure?"
"Less nonsense! Just attack first. Like I said I don't want to feel like I am bullying someone who was clearly weaker than me." Baby Sword Master impatiently said to him.
"Alright, if you say so."
Hearing his confidence from his words, Randy could only give in to his suggestion.
The next moment, Randy took a deep breath and then proceeded to close his eyes.
Soon, images of the comprehended fist techniques played inside his mind: Void Punch, Void Wave Punch and the finally Void Rippling Punch.

The void punch was just an ordinary punching technique that lays the foundation for the void wave punch, which sends out waves of compressed air towards the opponent and the then finally the void rippling punch, which will send shockwaves which will pervade the opponent's body through their pores to cause internal damage.
After recalling the essence of the fist technique again, Randy abruptly opened his eyes as a glint of light flashed across his opened eyes.
Without any hesitation, Randy suddenly kicked the floor of the arena and then activated his Gale Ride skill and in a blink of an eye, he had already approached the other party, standing in front of him while clenching his fist, preparing to attack.
At this moment, Baby Sword Master realized that he had made a mistake as he could not keep up the other party's speed just now and belatedly said: "Wait."
However, Randy had already thrown a punch towards the other party's head that was covered in a head gear.
"BAM!"
A loud sound of a solid object being hit resounded, and the air picked up around them as if the surrounding air in the atmosphere was shaken by this fist attack.
[Void Punch]
The next moment, Baby Sword Master was sent flying a few meters away, feeling his head spinning from the sudden attack to his head making him feel almost as if he had a vertigo.
He had shocked expression behind the head gear as he laid on the floor of the combat arena, because despite the expensive protective head equipment he had on, the other party's punch still managed to cause damage to his head slightly.
Nonetheless, despite being sent flying away, he did not relent as he quickly got back up, straighten his back, raised his sword, and then charge towards Randy to unleash his sword technique, however Randy did not give the other party a chance to approach him as he took the liberty to approach them instead.
Whoosh!
Gliding through the wind, Randy faced the incoming opponent head on and then when the other party's sword was about to slash his head, he quickly bent his head down to dodge the cold sword attack and then right away, after positioning himself, he threw an uppercut at the other party's chin that was barely covered by the head gear.
Bam!
This punch from him caused Baby Sword Master to feel disorientated. Which was due to the shock from Randy's sudden punch to his unguarded chin.
If it was a normal punch then it would have been nothing, however with the reinforcement of the gauntlet, this punch pack a powerful effect on Baby Sword Master's chin.
Taking advantage of the other party disorientation, Randy did not stop there, as he continued to unleash the next fist technique with absolute fluidity, raining down consecutive punch at Baby Sword Master's body.
Face.
"Bam!"
Stomach.
"Bam!"
Dodge!
Wizz—
Consecutive Chin Uppercut!
"Bam!" "Bam!" "Bam!" "Bam!"
Randy continuously rained down punches on the other party without giving him the chance to land a hit.
And whenever the other party tries to frantically slash his sword around due to being overwhelmed, Randy would swiftly dodge his sword attack with his Gale Riding skill.
And then taking that chance, he would throw consecutive Upper cuts at the other party's chin since it was the only thing that was not thoroughly protected by their head gear.
In the virtual world, anything was possible as long as one's imagination of their skills was great or high enough, they can be used in here.
In Randy's case, although the Gale Riding Skill was a skill that required him to be in his assimilated state, however in here, it was easily executed without entering his assimilated state.
After all, this was a mental world, not a physical world with limits on the physical body.
With that in mind, Randy kept raining down punch after punch on the other party's face and occasionally barely dodging their sword attack by fully executed the Gale Riding skill that basically lets him almost fly a few inches on the ground surface.
"Arghhhhh—"
"You bastard! You were clearly not a newbie at all! Why do you have such profound techniques if you're only a newbie?!" Baby Sword Master screamed in exasperation and frustration, of not being able to even land a single hit at the other party.
"Oh?" Amidst his continuous punching, Randy appeared surprised when he noticed that the other party can still move and talk despite his relentless against him.
'Is this because of his equipment?' He silently thought with a frown on his face, as he continued raining down his punches unceasingly.
During the time when he dodged the other party's sword attack, which was when he could catch a breather, using that time, he replied: "Well, I never said that I was a newbie, now did I?"
"Bam!"
"Kuhk!"
He then threw another uppercut at the Baby Sword Master's chin again, sending him backwards a few steps and then he continued: "It was you who assumed it by yourself!"
