The Greatest Sinner

Whoosh.

Evan ran across the ice toward the right side of the platform. He had to help the others if he wanted to make it to the finals. He, Chloe, Lars, and Enni were very strong, but the four of them would hardly handle three Ogres at once.

Moreover, the Ogre with the shield was different from the others. It was sluggish, but it was able to make good decisions. If it decided to attack with a shield not a poleaxe, they would simply dodge that attack and pounce on the monster all at once.

<This Ogre`s destroyed the platform so we can\'t fight anymore. Good thing I didn\'t have to dive in.>

Evan thought to himself as he watched Enni emerging from the water far from the platform. She didn\'t take any chances and swam as far away from the monster as possible. Chloe and Lars did the same.

Whoosh.

After a few seconds, Evan reached the right side of the platform. He rushed to the aid of the other team. By this point, they had already killed the Ogre with the sword and inflicted several wounds on the Ogre with the hammer. But, two of the students were seriously wounded, and one was carried off the battlefield by a Golem.

<What?!>

Evan was about to attack the monster, but suddenly he noticed that the Ogre with the shield was staring at him intently. Evan became wary, he thought that for some reason the Ogre had chosen him as a target, but it wasn\'t quite true.

Whoosh.

"Bitch, why is it so smart?!" Evan said angrily, and instead of attacking the Ogre with the hammer, he ran off in the other direction.

Whoosh.

The next moment the Ogre with the shield raised its massive poleaxe, brought it behind its head, and threw it at the icy platform with all its might.

Bam.

The group of five people noticed this attack, but too late. The poleaxe hit the center of the platform and shattered it into many pieces. The weapon plunged into the water, but its hilt was sticking out of the water.

The students did not expect such an attack and tried to swim as far away from there as possible, but not everyone succeeded.

Bam.

Without wasting time, the Ogre struck with its hammer where the two students had just dived. Its blow was swift and incredibly powerful. If it hit the target, the participants would definitely not survive.

Bam.

The hammer plunged into the water and the massive waves pushing the last pieces of the ice platform apart in all directions.

At the same moment, Golem flew out of the water with two students in his arms. There was horror on their faces, if it wasn`t for Golem, they would have been crushed into a pancake by that hammer.

"Huh, this wench is pretty lucky, she\'s still here despite all the trouble." Evan said with a smirk as he looked at Gerda floating away.

Evan\'s gaze shifted from the Ogre with the hammer, to the Ogre with the shield, he was trying to figure out what he should do. There were only two opponents left, but they could no longer fight on the water.

Thanks to the "Ice Veil", Evan could move through the water creating ice in front of him, but he had to keep his scythe blade submerged in the water to do so.

<Hmm, one has a sword and the other a poleaxe and a hammer. Looks like I`m going to have to strain a bit>.

Whoosh.

Evan quickly ran toward the Ogre with the sword. He decided to deal with it himself. It would be difficult, but Evan knew what he was capable of and besides, his opponent was wounded. The biggest problem was still the Ogre with the shield who was slowly pacing in his direction.

<I think I\'ll have time to deal with this Ogre before the second one gets to me.>

The Ogre with the sword also noticed the young man running in its direction. It was walking toward the young man, intending to take this attack head-on, but Evan had other plans.

Whoosh.

Suddenly Evan changed his trajectory and a few seconds later, he was near the poleaxe. He instantly swung his scythe and the hilt of the massive poleaxe was sliced off. It was no longer possible to use this weapon. Only one blade remained of the poleaxe.

The poleaxe was huge, but it was not made of particularly high quality materials. Evan\'s scythe blade was made of the high-grade material-the "Horn of the Sacred Deer." Evan had no trouble cutting the wooden hilt of the poleaxe.

Whoosh.

Evan changed his trajectory again and headed toward the Ogre with the sword.

...

"This guy is determined to take matters into his own hands! Commendable, but can he handle it?" The man in the silver mantle said thoughtfully.

"Of course, I think each of them underestimates their abilities. I understand that they are weak, but these Ogres are far from the strongest opponents. Moreover, when your forte is speed, it is a pleasure to fight against a slow opponent." The girl in the platinum mantle said calmly.

"They`ve prepared interesting monsters this time..." The man in the gray mantle said briefly.

"Mr. Arve, aren\'t these monsters the most common Ogres?" The girl in the platinum mantle asked in surprise.

She turned to a man with short, black hair and brown eyes wearing large glasses with thin, black frames. He had been silent during the entire test, but now he decided to comment on the situations.

Arve was a teacher of the fourth rank and just like Draven wore a gray mantle. He was a rather taciturn person and rarely spoke out about anything. Arve rarely said for nothing, that`s why many people listened to his every word.

Arve adjusted his glasses with his index finger and calmly said: "Just keep watching. I think we\'ll be surprised by the final monster this time."

The girl answered nothing and simply followed Arve\'s advice. She watched the actions of Evan and Ogre with the shield intently. They were the key characters in this battlefield at the moment.

Whoosh.

While the teachers were discussing what was happening in the arena, Evan had already almost gotten to Ogre with the sword.

The monster decided to attack first. It swung its massive sword and swung it at Evan from top to bottom with all its might. The Ogre wanted to kill the young man in one hard blow, but it underestimated Evan\'s maneuverability.

Whoosh. Bam.

The moment the sword almost came down on Evan, the young man quickly stepped aside, a moment later a sword blade swept behind him and plunged into the water.

Evan turned, caught on the Ogre\'s flesh with the scythe blade and climbed onto its arm. The Ogre looked at Evan with fury, but in the next second, the young man\'s silhouette blurred and turned into a snow-white flash.

Whoosh.

Like deadly lightning, Evan was instantly on Ogre\'s shoulder without removing the scythe from the monster\'s hand. He sliced through the flesh and inflicted a deep wound from wrist to shoulder on the Ogre.

Evan looked into the Ogre\'s eyes and said with a smile: "Well, big guy, now we\'ll see what you can do to me, ahahahahaha."

It was strange, but Evan\'s amethyst eyes frightened the monster, for the first time ever it felt real threat and danger from the young man.
