Chapter 60 Fighting Noelle
Hearing that proposal after getting kicked like this definitely pissed him off. Even Fenrir and Anubis gnashed their teeth as they were about to pounce on her. They never thought that their bodies would be so weak that they couldn't react to that movement.
As much as Nathan wanted to reject it, this was actually a good proposal. It was true that it could broaden his horizon, but the most important thing from such a mission was the upperclassmen's advice.
He wanted to hear from their experience about their abilities, tricks, and even tips for summoning.
Still, even if he liked a girl, he would definitely not like to take a beating for no reason, let alone from someone he had just met.
While getting back on his feet, Nathan said, "You should have asked that without kicking me, don't you think?"
"My apologies. I couldn't control my impulse, even though I knew it was wrong. It appears I haven't trained enough that I can't control my impulse even though I'm in the wrong. I'll be compensating you…" Noelle raised her right hand before hitting her left arm, snapping it so that she couldn't use it anymore during this battle.
Even Nathan was surprised that she was willing to fight in a handicap battle because of that kick. At the same time, it showed her confidence in defeating Nathan. To defeat him, one hand was enough.
"Does this mean I've won the bet? I have managed to injure you with my words alone." Nathan smirked.
"It doesn't count because I haven't heard you agreeing to my proposal." Noelle wasn't flustered by Nathan's wording, as if she had classified Nathan to be those with little tricks.
"Tsk." Nathan clicked his tongue. "Well, I thought about punching your face or something if I managed to injure you since you kicked me out of the blue. I don't want people to think I'm easy to bully just because you are a woman after all."
"You're welcome to punch me, not once, but twice, if you really succeed in injuring me." For Noelle, this was a kind of test to see whether or not Nathan had enough power to experience the mission with her. If he was too weak to even injure her in this state, he would die if he followed her.
Nathan took a deep breath. This was the first time ever since coming to this world that he could feel he had less than 0.0001% to succeed. Even fighting Alisha or the aliens had much higher success than this.
Despite knowing that he would fail, Nathan smiled as though he had a plan in mind.
"In that case, I thank you in advance for the opportunity." Nathan shouted, "Anubis!"
Anubis sent for the two bandages, trying to capture Noelle's blade.
Noelle waved her blade at Anubis, sending forth a sword strike. Anubis jumped to the left and looped around, approaching her from behind.
At the same time, Fenrir took that time to come to Nathan.
"Fenrir. Do whatever you can to create an opening. As long as I can use that opening, I will definitely be able to win. I'm a greedy man. I don't plan to only defeat her, but take it all."
Fenrir grinned. "I want to warn you not to bite more than you can chew, but I guess this is much more exciting."
Now that he knew Nathan's intention, Fenrir rushed forward, approaching Noelle, who was occupied by Anubis.
She blocked Anubis' teeth with her sword and ultimately launched him into the air. Before she could send forth another sword strike, Fenrir pounced on her.
Noelle already sensed Fenrir, so she turned around at the last minute, using the sword strike to Fenrir instead of Anubis.
Fenrir slapped that sword strike using Alisha's ability. However, his Ena and mastery over the technique were still a bit too low. He managed to distort the sword strike, but a part of it still hit his body.
Luckily, Fenrir's super durability endured that hit, leaving only a scratch.
Fenrir's claws clashed with her blade, stopping her movement for a second.
Anubis shot out his bandages and wrapped her entire body. "Mummification!"
Unfortunately for him, Noelle let out a burst of Ena all around her body to loosen the bandages. Then she cut the bandage with minimal movement, allowing Fenrir to slip past her defense.
Fenrir pounced on her while she stopped him with her knee.
Before Fenrir pushed her down, Nathan positioned himself to her left, shooting out the Deadly Claw. He positioned it between Noelle and the ground so that Fenrir would push her toward the claw.
As expected for a knight, her lower body was much stronger than a normal person. At the last second, she managed to tilt her body slightly and lowered her foot on top of the claw. The Ena that boosted that stomp shattered the claws like glasses.
After that, she tossed her blade into the air and grabbed Fenrir's arm before throwing him with her monstrous strength.
"What?" Anubis, who was about to attack, was forced to send forth the bandage to catch him because Noelle sent forth a sword strike right behind Fenrir.
After catching Fenrir, Anubis attached the second bandage to the tree and pulled both of them away from the sword strike.
However, this was just a means to stop them. Noelle took this chance to attack Nathan instead.
As if expecting her to come to him, Nathan had already made a gun hand signal.
To her surprise, he clenched his hand into fist at the last second and shot out his Deadly Claw instead. "You're too focused on my hand."
The Deadly Claw extended to her heart, albeit it suddenly broke apart when a shield made of Ena appeared in its trajectory. "Sadly, your Ena is too low."
Now that she reached him, Noelle waved her blade at his neck.
Nathan hurriedly ducked, avoiding the blade. But once again, Noelle came with a kick.
Little did she know this was Nathan's real aim. He already made a grabbing motion. The kick might be fast and powerful, but as long as he could grab it, he could claim he had dealt a bit of damage to her.
"Clever trick, but…" Noelle showed her superior Ena control. When Nathan was about to catch her leg, it felt like there was an invisible barrier that pushed him back until that kick landed on him, blowing him away.
