Ludwig did not get angry or upset at Cliffman’s insult. He was not the type to react that way. Instead, he focused on sparring.
Thud!

Bang!

Smack!

Whack!

It was painful to watch. Cliffman faced Ludwig without using Mana Reinforcement.
Although Ludwig was enveloped in blue mana, he could not even touch Cliffman.
Missing an arm, Ludwig’s superhuman agility and strength became a hindrance. He could not even close the distance properly as his balance was off, making his movements awkward.
Cliffman, without any weapons, used Ludwig’s strength against him, flipping him over, throwing him, and tripping him. He relentlessly attacked Ludwig’s open right side, targeting his weakness.
Cliffman toyed with Ludwig without even using Mana Reinforcement.
Ludwig’s sword, held in his left hand, could not touch any part of Cliffman. Instead, it seemed like the sword itself was a penalty for Ludwig, as Cliffman used the trajectory of Ludwig’s sword against him, grabbing it or kicking it away and subduing Ludwig.
Using a weapon had become a disadvantage.
“You were strong before… but it seems you’ve gotten even stronger, Cliffman,” Ludwig said, smiling awkwardly as he used his left arm to push himself off the ground.
Cliffman neither smiled nor got angry.
“You know that’s not true.”
“…”
“You’ve just gotten weaker. Pathetically so.”
Ludwig had nothing to say to Cliffman’s harsh criticism.
If Ludwig was still whole, Cliffman would not have been able to overwhelm him like this without using Mana Reinforcement.
“There are people who have mastered using only their left hand or right hand. It’s not unheard of. There have been one-armed swordsmen, even among Swordmasters,” Cliffman said. “But you only have two, maybe three months at most. Reaching that level in such a short time is impossible. It’s an unrealistic goal.”
