Episode 31 Martial Arts Tournament Finals

The Efania Imperial Martial Arts Tournament finals.

At some point, the final round was reached at the end of the season.

However, strangely, instead of the adult division, which should have been the most focused, it was the boys division that drew people’s attention.

The reason was none other than Krad, the main character rumored to belong to the Ravens.

A narrow-eyed boy with a crow on his shoulder.

He was as powerful as his significant figure.

Until now, he had not pulled out the sword that was hanging from his waist, and he had subdued them all with a single blow of his fist.

Because of that, people questioned whether the sword was actually a fake.

With so many questions gathered, the final match began.

“Thank you for waiting so long!”

“Waaa!”

With the people’s tremendous cheers, the stadium for boys’ division exploded and resounded.

People who filled the largest indoor arena in the empire all looked forward to this final.

“Let’s start the final match of the boys division of this martial arts competition from now on!”

The host raised his left arm while shouting.

“Introducing the first of the two main characters of the finals! Growing up in a rural village, a boy with aspirations to protect world peace by preventing world erosion one day! Fellay!”

With the emcee’s shout, a boy walked out of the arena.

He came out with a hesitant attitude, a 14-year-old boy with an ordinary look.

“Felay, do your best!”

“Dude, don’t lose to night crows!”

Then more people cheered for him than expected.

Because he was like a ray of light for ordinary people.

Unlike the nobility, a boy who trained his sword in an ordinary rural village and made it to the finals of the martial arts competition.

The common people were inspired by him and supported him more actively.

“And the opponent…… A member of the notorious underworld family, the Night Crow, who scares everyone just by saying his name! Rumors are circulating.”

The moderator accurately grasped the needs of the people and smiled proudly.

“Crad!”

With the host’s cry, a crow suddenly flew up from the participant entry passage.

“Cow!”

The raven that soared through the sky drew people’s attention at once.

A crow, a symbol of ominousness.

The moment when the commotion stopped for a moment at the appearance of such a crow.

A boy walked out slowly from the entrance.

The tightly closed eyes under the pitch-black hair made it impossible to know what he was imagining, and the energy emanating from the boy created a strange sense of pressure.

As he climbed onto the field in such an atmosphere, a crow that was flying in the sky slowly landed on his shoulder.

“…… Okay. I’m not going to do anything like this from now on.”

Then he spoke to himself and raised his head, and for an instant, people’s cheers rang out throughout the stadium.

“Night Raven!!!”

“I bet you to be first! Win!!!”

“Show me what the assassination family is all about!!!!”

Through the cheers echoing here and there, Krashu looked ahead.

Felay shone in his eyes.

Looking at it again, he has an ordinary impression.

But no matter how he looked, he belonged to Rachellene Academy as well as the generation of the sky.

‘I didn’t expect to see it here.’

Those hopeful eyes are still the same.

So, Krashu clearly remembered the day when hope faded in his eyes.

Unfortunately, however, other things come first before dealing with him.

Anyway, the predetermined goal was achieved.

“Crad.”

At that moment, Fellay spoke up.

“Are you really from the Night Crow?”

You look like an innocent guy.

Instead of answering, Krashu lightly loosened his neck.

Anyway, this work is practically finished.

So all that was left was to run amok so that the other side could move wildly.

“If it’s something like that, it’s better to come out right away.”

At that moment, unexpected words came out of Fellay’s mouth.

“The Efania Imperial Family said that this martial arts contest was held to gather additional students for Rachellen Academy. You and I have made it all the way to the finals, so we will definitely be able to enter Rachelleen Academy.”

This information is already well known.

It was nothing new, but Fellay spoke condescendingly.

“Racheln Academy is an independent academy that no country can interfere with. There, you too can escape from the night crow.”

And then a story full of dreams and hopes came out.

Unfortunately, Rachelleen Academy is not that great academy.

Since it was established not long ago, the power of Rachellene Academy is small.

For that reason, except for the early days, he eventually gets swayed here and there in the fight between empires and kingdoms.

‘If I think about it now.’

There were several reasons why Rachellene Academy was so swayed.

That wasn’t something to be resolved right away, and it wasn’t even Krache’s concern.

“Felay.”

So Krashu drew his sword for the first time in this tournament.

Seeing that, while the audience cheered again, Krache aimed the sword at Fellay.

“If you are too full of hope, you will not be able to overcome the despair that hits you.”

“What?”

“Start the match!”

The referee’s voice resounded with advice he couldn’t understand now.

It was Fellay who opened the battle.

He mysteriously came gliding across the floor.

‘It’s a step he developed himself.’

The place where Fellay lived is the highest place in the empire close to the north.

A place where it snows all year round.

Growing up there, Fellay traveled on slippery ice and snow, and as a result, he developed his footwork to become more efficient.

I’m sure I haven’t given it a name yet, but Krashu knows the name.

Thousand and ten steps

It was a step called reaching a thousand miles in ten steps.

‘The first person I see will be taken aback.’

Even though I thought it was quite a distance, it came right in front of me in an instant.

As evidence of that, Fellay was right in front of Krashu in just one moment.

Pele is the only commoner who has risen to the age of the sky through talent and hard work.

He was as strong as Anyx even at this time of year.

Chang!

But the opponent was bad.

“What?!”

Fellay’s sword, which had been aiming for the waist with a flurry, was blocked by Krashu’s sword.

As if he knew where his sword would go, Fellay’s eyes widened.

“I’m not at the level of giving advice to others, but I see it.”

When Krashu provoked him, Fellay bit his lip and immediately followed up with a series of sword strikes.

It is a sword that cuts down trees with 10,000 swings, and cuts rocks with 100,000 swings.

Just by looking at the calluses on his hands, you could tell how well he had trained his sword.

It was definitely a lifetime of training to become Fellay.

But there was more than that training.

‘The experience of knowing the other person.’

Because he had to be behind everyone else, he was the person who could observe the generation of the sky more than anyone else.

That was myself.

‘My sixth sense.’

The aura wrapped around Krashu’s body awakened a new sense.

Accordingly, Krashu’s sword was already in place wherever Fellay’s sword flew.

Before such concepts as wasteful and lost, from his small habits to Fellay’s special moves.

Krashu knew everything.

It was the only talent he didn’t realize.

Because he has nothing of his own, he has the talent to figure out and remember everything of others one by one.

Obviously that was a useless talent in the past.

If you observe others well and are quick-witted, the only thing that comes back is that you feel bad.

But at this moment, that talent is starting to blossom for the first time.

Chang! Visor! Visor! Visor! Visor! Visor!

All swords wielded by Fellay returned to nothing in front of Krashu.

Seeing that scene, even the audience was involuntarily mesmerized.

It was so fast that it was hard to keep track of Fellay’s black eyes that deal with pleasure.

Even the imperial knights spit out exclamations of admiration at his unbelievable skills for a man of his age.

But Krashu was a step above that.

As if all of Fellay’s consecutive attacks were playing into Krashu’s grasp.

His attack was blocked without reaching Krashu even once.

Dungeon (鈍劍)

A swordsmanship that moves slower than the opponent, but reaches his space before the opponent.

Krashu had finally set foot in that realm at this moment.

“I can’t reach you.”

“What is that?”

Looking at that scene, people started to be silent.

Those who secretly supported Fellay gradually lowered their voices.

It was overwhelming.

Overwhelmed thinking that no matter what Fellay does he will never be able to defeat Krashu.

Everyone in this place felt the overwhelming feeling with their own eyes.

[ hahahaha. ]

The laughter of the Crimson Garden soared into the sky before I knew it.

[ Yes, kid. ]

As if enjoying the current situation, she spread her crow’s wings in the sky.

[ That’s the only move you have. If you have nothing, take everything your opponent has. Show all your greedy organs. ]

Dungeom is a swordsmanship that takes away the opponent’s space.

This is because no matter where the opponent’s sword goes, that sword takes over the space first.

Ironically, the dull sword was a swordsmanship that suited Krashu better than anyone else.

Because he can only stand on top if he takes away everything.

“Ugh, ugh!”

Felay’s groan echoed.

The one who attacks is obviously himself.

And yet, he was stepping back more and more.

No matter how hard he swung his sword, he couldn’t move forward.

It was because Krashu’s sword took over all the space he had.

He was Krashu, a little shorter than himself.

But for some reason, his presence began to grow more and more every time the sword was blocked.

Felay received the sensation of swinging his sword at a rock from Krashu.

Can he cut this rock himself?

That despondency dominated his body.

“Felay.”

At that moment, Krashu’s voice rang out.

When Fellay looked up, he was in front of his black neck.

“Ha, ha.”

A labored breath escaped Fellay’s mouth.

The sword Fellay wielded was only a centimeter from his neck.

Even though it was Pele who wielded the sword.

The cold sweat running down Fellay’s cheeks touched Krashu’s sword.

It was that close.

“Be strong.”

Then Krashu opened his mouth towards Fellay.

“Even if your hopes eventually collapse, you can leave a spark.”

Kracheu, who left a meaningless comment, put his fist into Fellay’s stomach with that ending.

Chonkyung(寸勁)

With two shocks echoing, Fellay collapsed, salivating.

With that, Krashu turned around.

In the aftermath of Krashu’s use of the sword, the breath that filled his mouth pierced his lungs at random, but he maintained a poker face.

And that moment.

“Waaa!”

The stadium exploded with cheers like never before.

It was truly an overwhelming blunt sword.

There was no one who couldn’t help but scream when they saw this.

“Ah, winning!”

And belatedly, the moderator who came to his senses raised his hand.

“Crad!”

As soon as he pointed at Krashu and declared victory, the arena roared once more.

“Hey, lard!”

At that moment, Krashu turned his head at the voice behind him.

He never thought that he would come to his senses so quickly after being hit by a police officer.

“Can we meet again?”

I see, I didn’t come to the age of the sky for nothing.

Looking at him tenaciously maintaining his spirit, Krashu said.

“Yes, at the academy.”

“That’s right.”

He passed out completely after that.

I’ll see you again.

Although it may not be this one, but a different one.

「Thank you. Krashu, I will try harder than the curse you took. I will watch over the world.”

For a moment, I remembered the past.

That was what he said when I stole the curse of Fellay, who had returned from being cursed with world erosion.

It’s been a long time since I’ve said thank you.

But Fellay was a month later.

The limbs were eaten by the master of world erosion, and he slowly died.

Krashu’s fists clenched.

‘Don’t worry. Fellay.’

And Krashu’s head slowly raised.

“I am the one protecting you this time.”

Not others, but myself.

And for that.

‘Sigrin.’

He ruins the girl’s plans.
