Season 45, Week 2
Ernest Raviede
(Star Ocean: The Second Story)
 
*Crack!* The whip-wielding unshaven badass archaeologist is known and feared on all worlds. While Ernest of Tetragenes isn't quite as fearsome as that hero of long-ago, he's no slouch in combat. Boasting both a range and damage advantage over the Asgardian samurai is a good start to the battle, as his ace in the hole - his Crestier guard, which provides an unpleasant counterattack to anyone foolhardy enough to use close range attacks against him. Ahh, and Jun has nothing but close range attacks. Such a pity.

Amateur Ogre-hunter Jun learned the hard way that to face your foe, you must first face yourself. Jun may have lost the first round with his own tortured soul, but after a good medicinal slaying by his psychiatrist, Lenneth Valkyrie, Jun is all set mentally. The question now before Jun's blade is...can a fickle and useless space adventurer be more difficult an opponent than himself? Signs point to "no." Ernest's toy whip will give Jun more than enough time to teach him a lesson...a lesson ending in the blade art, Senko-jin!

"Mugen no Kens-ARGH." Jun shrieked, as roses slashed from the ground.

Ernest chuckled. "Been waiting for that. I can stun lock you out of doing that all day long. It's a pity you take so long to use those and make those stupid quotes."

"..." Jun stared blankly at Ernest, a glimmer of hatred shining in his eyes, as Ernest laughed at his predicament.

Then a glimmer of light slashed across the arena.

Ernest stopped, mid-laugh, and slowly crumpled to the ground.

"You fool. Flower petals always help samurai." Jun muttered, sheathing his sword. "Don't you know anything?"
