Foil is known for its thin pointy figure and it is also known that although this weapon is good it has a high chance of breaking because its durability was something.

He dashed towards Keiji and in a blink of an eye, he was almost in the range of Keiji ready to slam his hammer down. 

As he was dashing he raised his hammer and swung it vertically to prevent Keiji from making a move at him. Keiji stepped back and dodged the incoming slash. 

The hammer didn't hit Keiji but he didn't stop and instead put all his strength into making it faster. Then he bent down his knee as his hammer continued in its way. 

He swung it at full speed as he used all his body force and the hammer then rotated at a high speed and its tip was aiming at Keiji.

Keiji dodged it again and was preparing to attack as it was the perfect time to do so because Rufus would have to deal with the recoil of his hammer.

He bent his knees and positioned his foil before releasing all the power out of his feet and dash towards Rufus and tried to pierce him. 

Rufus didn't stop and did the same thing as before but his rotation speed was getting faster as he kept trying to increase the speed of the hammer.

With Keiji's experience, he already knows Rufus' plan and that was to let him attack and he will use the will of fate to suddenly increase his speed and strength to deal more damage to Keiji.

The foil pierced Rufus' right back shoulder but that didn't stop Rufus action instead after it pierced his shoulder he instantly activated his skill the will of fate. 

[ Strength : 15 →31

Agility : 14 → 32.4 ]

Light surrounded his body and his speed suddenly increased. He put all his strength to swing the hammer at Keiji and it even increased at a very fast rate. 

His speed was on par with Keiji's full strength in a game but because of his heavy armor it was lessened but because of his strength surpassed that of his armor it even increased his attack and movement speed.

Keiji was still limiting himself and not using his full strength in the game when he was fighting because he wanted to play and not to kill.

Rufus then swang his hammer towards Keiji but to his surprised a throbbing pain protruded in his left armpit and because of his sudden action he couldn't stop his movements and the thing that was piercing his armpit deepened and reached through his internal organ and pierced through his heart.

Then Rufus died but his body was still moving because of the force that his attack exuded. The hammer continuously shot through Keiji's direction and because he was limiting his speed he couldn't dodge in time or he just let the hammer hit him. 

Keiji can jump and let his body be hit by the hammer and let himself be thrown out so that the damage would be lesser than the damage he would take if his feet were on the ground but he decided to crouch instead and let his head be the one to be hit so that he would die instantly. 

*splurrgg….* 

Ethereal blood splurged through the floor as Keiji's head was smashed by the hammer. But soon it disappeared without a trace and the white arena that became the battlefield returned to being pure white.

Rufus exited the capsule in the virtual world and his mind was still feeling the pain of his heart being pierced. Although this was just a virtual game and it was even in the virtual world the pain was still the same.

This is the only problem that this game has because there are already too many people that got traumatised when they died in the virtual world. 

He soon regained himself and looked towards the screen above the arena which was replaying the final blow of the scene.

After watching it he remembered something.

'Oh!! s.h.it I almost forgot that every time I killed my enemy like that they will either have trauma or gone mad. I hope he was alright. I never thought he would be so strong to utilize his stats.' he thought and walked towards the other side of the arena looking if Keiji was ok.

Meanwhile, the two who were watching the whole scene cannot even utter a single word. At first, they thought that it was obvious who would be the winner but what they saw left them speechless. 

They were even more shocked when they saw how Keiji's head was smashed into pieces mid-air.

Keiji got up from the capsule and walked towards them as nothing happened. 

"Hey, are you alright," Rufus calmed down when he saw that Keiji was okay and acting like nothing happened. 

But soon he realized that the calmness of Keiji was not the right reaction to that. Even those who died because of being pierced by the heart have a significant headache because of the pain you felt that directly constrain your mind.

"Het are you really okay? You are not joking right," he said as he didn't really know the feeling of having his head smash nor did he want to. He looked towards Keiji who was walking back towards their room.

"Oh right you two come up fast we need to relax and prepare ourselves because we still need to be ready for the upcoming fight." He said as he followed Keiji who just sat elegantly in one of the sofas. He followed him and sat beside him before sitting lazily then he closed his eyes because his mind was too tired because of Keiji.

After an hour a guy knocked outside the door. 

"Excuse me the drawing lots will start soon and we need the presence of your group there." The man said as he led the four towards the big arena.

They went out in the hallway and found themselves in front of a vortex that was going to another place.

"Sir, you can enter this is where the tournament will take place." A man who was guarding it on the side said. 

"Ok," Rufus said as he led the team and entered the vortex.

Once they entered the vortex their vision became dark and after that, they felt a sudden surge of pressure in their minds before all of them naturally closed their eyes.

Even Keiji couldn't endure the mental pressure for some unknown reason but unlike the others his mind was clear and the only thing he can't do is open his eyes and control his body but his mind can do whatever it likes.

Soon the pressure disappeared and they found themselves in a very big colosseum. 

'Teleportation, hmmm, is really interesting. It can even suppress my control over my body but it can't still affect my way of thinking or hinder my decisions. ' he thought as he looked around and saw that the place was really a big colosseum there were people who kept emerging around the colosseum.

The colosseum was surrounded by a wall of seat and in the middle of the Colosseum there was a circular white stage and it was surrounded by capsules.

'So the fight will also be in the form of it' Keiji thought as he nodded while looking at that.

"Guys remember that it's alright to lose because the level that we will face is on another level. So don't stress yourself much. But remember we need to at least win once so that we could get some price even though it was only a pitiful amount." Rufus said as he tried to assure his group and raised their morale.

They were already experienced at seeing the colosseum unlike Keiji who was still clueless. They already knew that they can win 2 at most because they have Keiji in their group, Keiji who almost defeated their leader. 

Rufus, Ralph, and Henry already knew each other for long; they would constantly fight here in the colosseum and sometimes they would face an enemy that they couldn't even bear to win. 

They waited for a few moments before an ethereal holographic person emerged in the middle of the Colosseum.

"Good day ladies and gentleman." The holographic humanoid said and continued.

"We are happy for all of you who attend this tournament. We hope to give you the best experience so now let us not pick around the bush anymore. "

"Okay all the players be ready. And let us start the rollet." The man said cheerfully as the surrounding roared and.

Then after saying that the walls above the hall where they came from lit up. Alll the walls above every hallway lit up and after a few more seconds the light dimmed and there were one walls that were lit up differe t from otheres then the light rotated and switch position to the right and that was the same after that.
