It's funny how the sparring session with Sera was more intense than the fight with Demon Prince, she had Ryou completely overwhelmed even if he was able to block or dodge a lot of her moves. I like how excited she was about him being able to hold his own against her, I'm sure she's gotten so powerful she can't go all out so I'm glad she'll be able to drop the shackles from time to time.

I did find it amusing how Ryou made an ice cart to pull instead of carrying Natalie because I was thinking "shouldn't the cart itself add so much weight that it'd be easier to just carry her?". But if the ice is light then I guess it is the better option.

Ryou saved all their lives and all he wants as thanks is a free meal lol. I'm glad Abel offered some more since his life was on the line.

Though with Lorraine spreading Ryou's name and calling him the strongest human, it seems like Hugh and Arthur's efforts might be for naught sooner than they think.

Keep in mind, Sera was using magic while Ryo was only using his sword. I don't think this was very indicative how a proper fight between the two would go.

It still indicates how strong Sera is compared to the Demon Prince.

Even Abel and those states mage couldn't do anything substantial to the demon prince. Then again, this made me remember that Abel is only a B-level adventurer (and he's already very strong compared to average human!)

Oh that's for certain yes. She's at least A rank (I don't remember if S rank was a think), she's clearly very skilled. Though in a live and death fight she'd likely get smoked by Ryo. Despite his own words of maining a sword, his magic is clearly his real specialty.
