Face-Slapping System

Hearing his reminder, the bodyguard nodded his head discreetly. Of course, he would not hold back. Like Alfred, he also felt a little irritated at their new boss who was quite arrogant.

He looked at Roland's posture and could not help but shake his head in disappointment. With a stance like that, he plans to fight a trained professional like him. What a joke!

He took the gloves and did not even bother wrapping his hands with boxing hand wraps, as he thought that it was unnecessary. Only noobs wear hand wraps as they need it to cushion their hand from throwing impact punches.

Roland wearing the hand wraps with the help of Fred just speaks volume to his level.

However, what he did not know was that the reason Fred wrapped Roland's hands was actually to protect him from Roland's punches as he was afraid of the other person dying from it.

Alfred's bodyguard was very confident of his win that he did not even bother taking off his suit. He went to the mat and waited for Roland to get ready.

On the other hand, after he finished 'preparing' Roland for the match, Fred went back to the sides as he announced the start of the match.

At this moment, he already readied his phone so that he could call the medic if something goes awry during their spar. However, he just prayed that Roland would hold back, or else, it would surely be a disaster for the bodyguard.

In truth, Fred doesn't actually have to worry at all. Roland has perfect control of his strength unlike last time. If he wanted to, he could just even give the bodyguard a tap and he would be able to defeat him easily. However, that was not the purpose of the spar, so he decided against it.

"Pretend that I am an enemy that wants to harm your client. Do not hold back," he said as he closed with his hands slightly raised below his chest.

The bodyguard nodded his head nonchalantly, unbothered by his 'weak' stance.

The moment Roland arrived in front of him, the bodyguard immediately attacked with a jab to his chest.

When thought that Roland would be finished from that punch alone, he was proven wrong when Roland's gloves suddenly rose to the air to block his punch perfectly. The bodyguard was taken aback for a moment before he threw another jab. However, Roland blocked that punch with ease as well.

The bodyguard's eyes widened in surprise at the two consecutive blocks. This time, he realized that Roland might really have some capabilities as well. However, he did not go all out earlier either.

This time, he fully unleashed his speed and strength, hoping to hit Roland squarely this time.

However, just like last time, Roland still managed to block his punch with ease.

"Y-you!" This time, the bodyguard was completely flabbergasted at the happenings.

It was one thing for him to block the earlier punches as they were just weak ones, however, for him to block his full-strength punch with ease as well. This was completely out of this world.

Not only him, even Cred, Alfred and the other bodyguard also looked at the scene as if they had seen a ghost.

It was apparent that the bodyguard had not held back on that last punch. However, Roland was still able to block it with his foot not moving an inch backward at all.

On the other hand, seeing that the bodyguard did not attack, Roland thought that he was already finished attacking. He looked at him with a hint of disappointment as he took a forward step to the left suddenly. His left hand also moved as a punch traveled towards the bodyguard's right rib.

Boom!

A deafening sound echoed, as the bodyguard felt his soul leaving out of his pain. Of course, the pain he felt was only temporary as Roland controlled his strength very well not to injure him grievously. There should be a bruise there now, but that was all, and it would be in a few days' time.

The bodyguard curled his body to the side immediately as he took a step back. His right ribs were burning in pain, but his gazed never left Roland as he retreated. At this moment, he figured that Roland was not actually as easy as he looks.

His previous arrogance and condemnation to Roland was now gone like a bubble. He decided to take this as if he was facing a life and death battle.

However, would taking the fight seriously change the result of the battle? Of course, not.

Following that, he still received two consecutive blows from Roland. One to his left rib, and the last one to his stomach, making him sprawl to the floor in pain.

Even the boxing gloves could not stop him from feeling Roland's punch that seemed to penetrate the thick fabrics.

Fred looked at the situation with a sigh of relief.

'Fortunately, he did not go all out!' he thought as he saw the bodyguard's miserable outcome.

Gonzalo and Benjamin felt relieved that it was not them who faced such a monster. Or else, who knew what they would end up to. They knew for themselves that as a bodyguard from the main branch, the guy lying on the floor right now must be more skillful than them. His build was also more pronounced, and one could tell at glance that he was very muscular and hunky. And yet, that guy still ended up going down after receiving three punches from Roland.

Roland shook his head before he turned his head to the others, "You guys want to go next?"

He asked this so that he could evaluate their skills as well. The first guy who fought was kind of a disappointment in his eyes. However, this was normal as he already has the eye of an expert right now, so he was not too strict when it comes to this.

Hearing the question, the others, including Fred, looked away as if they saw a colorful bird flying by from a distance. The only problem was, they were inside a building right now and there should be no bird flying around inside.

Seeing their reaction, Roland understood immediately so he did not pursue the matter any longer. Instead, he took a look at the transparent screens in front of him and counted the points he earned from it.
