"Fudo, you can go take a break. These guys are too weak to bother you. Leave everything to me." Sato said to Fudo.


    "Haha. You''re right. These morons aren''t fit for this great Emperor to make a move. Fufu." Fudo replied with a smug.


    "Die!" The yer closest to Sato couldn''t stand the way they were looking down at them(dark yers), so he increased his speed and reached Sato quickly.


    This yer happened to also be a berserker and like his short-lived teammate, he also used an axe. Probably due to the wild and destructive nature and look of axes, most dark berserkers tend to prefer them over great-swords and other weapons, though the great-sword still had a much better appeal whenpared to the other weapons; apart from the axe of course.


    Sato didn''t bother to take a stance when facing such a weak yer. He simply swung his sword head-on against the berserker''s attack.


    *ng*


    Facing the full force of Sato''s strength, the berserker''s axe, apanied by the sound of metals colliding, deflected over to the side.


    "Impossible!" The berserker cried. Berserker yers were well known for their strength and attack power. When a berserker set their stats growth to automatic, the system rmendations would even grow them strength-wise.


    ''Even if he is a level 7, he is still a swordsman. With my equipment, I should have been cover up the difference. So then why? I have the boost!''


    In Infinite Realm, stats were one''s representation of strength but it wasn''t theplete real deal. Once one selects a ss, their avatar''s physique and abilities are enhanced in regards to that ss. For example, when one selects the [Berserker], their [Strength] and [Endurance] receive a passive boost in physique and this isn''t recorded by the system but left for the yers to find out. Because of this boost, when a berserker and a swordsman who happens to have the same [Strength] as the berserker, disregarding the bonuses of their equipment and weapons, sh swords, the berserker would be winner of the sh but just by a tiny margin. This tiny margin is due to the passive boost in physique brought about by the ss. The same applied to other sses but in various areas. This way, the various sses would have their special points when a facing an opponent with the exact same attribute points. The specialties of the other sses weren''t yet known but people already knew that berserkers and guardians were innately stronger. But all these only applied as long as the difference in [Strength] between the berserker and the enemy yer wasn''t above 1 point. In other words, this didn''t apply to Sato.


    Sato was a true level 8 yer with 10 attribute points higher than the berserker. With an Upper tier Mortal rank armour that gave him +5 [Strength], there was no way he would lose in a contest of strength to a level 6 berserker.


    Even as the berserkerined, his axe was already knocked to his side, leaving him open to Sato. Sato obviously wouldn''t end things at that. He shed his sword at the berserker with full strength and sent him flying for 5 metres while crashing into other yers before he finally fell down.


    ''Only 5 metres? Tsk.'' Sato grumbled internally but he still kept a serious look as he faced the other yers.


    Despite the phenomenon of a flying berserker having urred, the yers still rushed at Sato with greed and madness. This wasn''t something that could be solved by just killing one person.


    Before he knew it, the next yer had already closed up on Sato but this time, it was a swordsman.


    The swordsman brandished his sword at Sato and because Sato had just attacked the berserker, he didn''t have enough time to dodge and so decided to block the attack with his sword.


    *ng*


    Sparks flew off as the two swords collided. Sato was about to attack the yer when he noticed the grin on his face.


    ''Huh?''


    It was almost toote but Sato managed to sight a ck shadow darting towards him from the side of the enemy swordsman. Because he was caught up with the swordsman in front, he couldn''t block the attack so he then retreated away by stomping his right foot a bit forward and propelling himself backwards and escaping that ck object.


    Once he got his feet back on the ground, Sato nced at the ck object that had aimed at him.


    ''A spear? Interesting.''


    Indeed, it was a spear and guess who was at the other end of the spear. Another berserker. Sato was surprised at the discovery of a spear-wielding yer after all, the spear was one of the hardest weapons to master[1] and was less used whenpared to the sword. Another fun fact was the one at the other end of the spear. It was another berserker.


    ''These guys really love this ss.''


    Before Sato could make a move, he heard a whirring sound. He reacted quickly and turned behind and what was in front of him was an arrow just less than two metres away. At this distance, Sato could easily dodge the attack but he didn''t just do that alone. After the dodged the arrow, Sato grabbed it by the body and spun back to face the berserker who was rushing his way, and threw the arrow at the yer with the entire force his muscles could release.


    Back in the Old Era, an average human adult had about 70kg in strength. Due to the advancements of better food and exercise routines in society, it increased to 80kg. In Infinite Realm now, 5 points in [Strength] is the basic strength measurement of an average human. In other words, 5 points was equivalent to 80kg. Sato had 21 points in [Strength] and when converted to Kilograms, it would be336kilograms! One should know that the record of the strongest man ever back in the Old era had a record of501 kg[2]. At level 8, Sato had gone beyond the half mark for this record. Even though he hadn''t yet reached it,336 kg was something to behold, especially when that amount of force is channeled into an arrow.


    *Phew*


    The arrow sped over to the berserker and because he never expected his opponent to fire a projectile at him, he got hit right in the eye by the arrow.


    "Arghhhhh!!!"


    Dropping his sword out of reflex, he held onto his wounded eye and yelled.


    Sato wanted to rush over but the other yers had already caught up to him. So far, he had either killed or immobilised 3 yers out of 22. He was still a long way to go if he wanted to win this.


    Gripping his sword hilt tightly, Sato ran towards the yers because he knew that if he spaced out too often, the long-range yers would aim at him.


    The approaching yers were delighted that Sato ran towards them rather than escaping because from what they had seen, his [Agility] stats surpassed even their best assassins. If he wanted to escape, he could easily do that and the barrier would be the only thing in his way but this wasn''t permanent. The reason so was because once the barrier received damage beyond it''s tolerant limit, it would shatter. The limit was quite high for current yers but they were anxious that Sato could reach it since he seed to be stronger than they had thought. So the best way to defeat him was to swarm him and keep him down. But oh, were these yers in for a surprise.


    Sato dashed into the horde like a wolf into a sheep pen. Wherever he swung his sword, blood spilled and cries were heard. Like a demon god dancing in the midst of mortals, Sato reaped the lives of many yers within 3 strikes. None were a match for him. Even for the Guardians who thought themselves to have a much better defense, they onlysted to receive one more sword sh.


    ''He truly is a demon.'' Blood Sword thought as he stared at Sato. Sato''s actions now would look amazing to another but in front of Blood Sword, it was scary. Being able to take on that much yers was difficult. For the ones that got injured, they had to fight that way as Blood Sword didn''t bring a Cleric or a Druid with them, since he found it unnecessary. Now however, he wondered why he didn''t do so.


    ''Doesn''t matter. You''re destined to die today no matter what you do.''


    As more and more yers died, the remaining began to feel their resolve wavering. Sato hadn''t only taken on the closebat yers but he had also attacked those long-range ones who hid behind. During this battle, everyone(apart from Fudo of course) was Sato''s target no matter where they were.


    "Argggh!"


    With a loud terrifying shrill, a mage yer died by a sword sh to the chest. As his body fell, Sato was seen standing in front with body sttered all over his face. He looked very scary but his previous actions were more scarier to these yers. After having gone through a round with Sato, they all hesitated to face him but some still ran forward.


    As Sato battled those "some", an assassin suddenly struck from the side with a short sword. This assassin was Crimson Scar, the guy whom Sato had murdered back then.


    "Haha. Die!" Crimson Scarughed wildly as he shed at Sato.


    "Hmph." With a high enough [Agility] and [Dexterity], Sato easily dodged it and countered back at Crimson Scar. However, Crimson Scar smiled and said,


    "I am not the one you should be focusing on."


    The space, less than a metre beside Sato, suddenly vibrated a bit and a silhouette appeared there with a dagger thrust towards him. Due to the sudden abruptness and closeness of the attack, Sato couldn''t dodge neither could he block it even though he had raised his guard up for sudden attacks. The dagger then proceeded all the way till it was but a few centimetres away from him.


    ''Shit!''
