Seeing an arrow flying right in front of his eyes, barely missing his life, the big man raised his hand and waved his swords around, "It's an ambush! Deflect the arrows!"
"Argh!"
"What is…"
"Cowa-"
Even from the place where he was standing, Frigs saw the arrows hitting the group of bandits, hitting all kinds of part of the bandit's bodies. Most of them hit the part of a human body which was not fatal, but the poison worked like wonder, 'Those poison really are strong!'
The bandits were massacred, most of them died, the once was a group of 80, now only consist of 15 bandits. All of a sudden, villagers armed with spears, rakes, shovels and sickles charged out of the houses along the streets, 'Victory is in our hand… though, I might need to fight that giant man'
…
…
"Cowards! Bring your leaders here and ask him to have an honourable duel with me!" The big, muscular man planted his giant sword on the ground and stood straight. The villagers that have surrounded him were nervous and started muttering to each other.
"We took care of his subordinates, but he is simply too strong!"
"Should we call Mr Edward here?"
(Edward=Frigs)
"Yea, we should…"
One of the man with a spear on his hand suddenly ran toward the house which Frigs was in. Soon enough, he reached the place where Frigs was standing at. Still panting, he said, "Sir… that man wanted a duel with the leader. Currently, it is safe to say that you are the leader of this village!"
Frigs sighed and turned around. He stopped right in front of the man and extended his arm, "Give me your spear, I'll try to win against him in the fight at least"
The man nervously sweating and slightly trembling at that moment, slowly moved his hand and gave Frigs the spear. Frigs looked at the spear once again and sighed, "Let's go and not keep our opponent waiting for us!"
Not long after, he found himself standing right in front of the man with the big sword, "Hey you! Teenage boy! Are you really their leader? You seem like a new person around here, I never saw you around here. Are you also the one that orchestrated and planned all of this?"
Frigs took a deep breath before responding, "You could say that person is me… Also, I'm impressed that you are still standing right now, all the weapons are covered with a very powerful poison that took care of most of your man…"
The man smirked before raising his sword from the ground and placing it on his shoulder, "I'm just really lucky, God probably gave me some chance because of the coward I'm facing against resorted to using poison! Anyway, are you ready?"
Frigs nodded, he gripped his spear as hard as he could and took one deep breath. Their duel officially began! They circled around the ground like two tigers fighting, cautiously taunting the opponent and smirking after that.
The villagers watching them seemed to be as nervous as Frigs that was sweating and trembling, just a little, 'The one who attacks first is doomed… I need to stay patient and wait for the best moment to counter attack'

Well, it seems that the big man was just thinking the same thing but couldn't hold it in any longer. He suddenly lunged forward with his giant sword, directly pointing at Frigs's throat. Frigs bent backwards, the giant sword right passed right above his face.
While at the same time, he used his left foot to kick the man's right-hand wrist. A crack sound could be heard and the big sword that was above his face fell straight into him.
Doing that moved made him lost his balance. He fell to the ground with the giant sword right above him, 'F*ck, it hits my nose!'
He moved the giant sword, got himself up and pressed one of his nostrils inward, then blowing his nose, blood came out of his nose like a missile. Frigs looked at the blood and fixed his stance without doing anything.
The big man fixed his wrist that probably was broken when Frigs kicked it. But now he was in a disadvantage, he lost his weapon, which was not a good thing to happen. All of a sudden, he charged toward Frigs. With his reflex, Frigs thrust his spear forward.
The man grabbed Frigs's spear with his armpit and threw his punch toward Frigs's face with his free hand. With a fast reflex, Frigs released the spear from his grip, went under the man and did an uppercut with his punch.
The man was shocked. He dropped the spear from the grip of his armpit to the ground and it turned to a hand to hand fight. Now, the table has pretty much changed, 'I'm really at a disadvantage now, he is much stronger than me, I'm afraid that I'm not able to win'
He changed his stance to a boxing stance and waited once again for the man to make the first move. Just like what happened earlier, the man did the first move, charging toward him while throwing a punch at the boy.
The boy moved forward once again, barely missing the punch of the man and going right under him once again, sliding on the ground, passing the man's crotch. As fast as he could, he got himself up and kicked the back of the knee of the man, which made him knelt on the ground with his one knee.
Without giving him a chance, Frigs wrapped his hand on the man's neck and pulled it toward him, choking the man. At first, the big man struggled and tried to release Frigs's hand forcefully, but it doesn't seem to be successful.
He then raised his arm and using his elbow, he hit the liver region of Frigs, which instantly released Frigs's choke. But a fight must come to an end, right? Well, it happened shortly after this. I mean, at the next chapter, of course!
