Carmen didn't have it easy either.
His men were utterly suppressed by Celia, Anne, and the Centaur Knight. And he was no different. Although he was significantly stronger than his men, to make it to this room, he had still lost half of them while Rhode made it here with only Anne and himself. The difference in the gap of strength was wholly apparent.
Since the beginning, Carmen dismissed Rhode as a mere pretty boy and wasn't fearful of him. But after the first clash, Carmen immediately removed this thought from his head. The impact he felt from Rhode's sword was as though waves in a stormy sea came crashing onto his pathetic fishing boat. If it weren't for Carmen's rich battle experiences, he would have already died under Rhode's blade.
