chapter 17
17. Dalian
“…What are you doing.
Seeing El in the same posture as herself, she sharpened her teeth.
I couldn’t believe it when I saw it with my own eyes.
Accurate posture with no error.
If you move even slightly, it follows like a mirror.
Doesn’t this make you feel like you’ve been made fun of yourself!
“That’s Gilahad’s sword. Has L ever learned a sword?”
“No… She only used a steel sword until a while ago. There was no class she had learned, no sword. So that’s…”
Gulp.
I could hear the dry saliva going down her throat.
I learned by watching.
There is no other way to explain it.
‘But it could be just posture.’
Swordsmanship is originally a posture for attacking or defending.
Anyone can do it just by taking a posture like that.
It was the mentally correct way to think that way.
“If you don’t come in first, I’ll go first.”
L starts moving.
As light as a butterfly.
As if you are looking for a flower, you slowly approach Gallihad.
It was so slow that I wondered if he was really going to attack.
A moment of inadvertent carelessness.
Wedge juice!
“?!”
The same strong sword as before came down again.
An unbelievable attack to say he copied Yu-Geom!
‘Of course.’
In such a short amount of time, how did you learn Yu-Geom ‘just by looking’?
That’s common sense, really nonsense. That’s not to be the case.
Numerous students laughed at L.
Aren’t you an idiot who only looks good after all?
In the same attack, it was clearly visible that Galihad was attacking again this time.
“Keuuugh…!”
However, Gallihad struggled without being able to attack.
They clashed their swords as if they had caught something.
“Ah, why are you doing that?”
“The guy who spilled it all the time before…?”
‘The sword has been pierced!’
Theo watched with interest.
There was no wrong answer in Galihad’s actions.
Shedding.
Make gaps.
Attack.
However, if the precondition was not to ‘sell’, ‘attack’ could not be established either.
It means that it becomes very difficult to feed effective hits.
El found out about Galihad’s sword.
After an equally strong attack, induce a location to spill.
If you move as you think, your prediction will be successful.
It’s enough to break the sword path by bending it vertically again.
It’s easy to explain in words.
In terms of difficulty level, if you bring two people in and tell them, ‘Now, try the same thing,’ they immediately respond, ‘Are you crazy?’
If you can’t predict it, you will have to pay the price with your life for the steel sword.
A crazy thing that anyone other than the Penrose family of iron-blooded swordsmiths would dare to attempt!
Interesting!
Theo couldn’t keep his mouth shut from the maddening excitement.
‘Eh, why a sword!’
Isn’t it a comedy seen from a distance and a tragedy seen from a close up?
Baffled, Galihad was in a hurry to defend against the helpless attacking sword.
L’s sword is out of the norm.
It is correct to subdue strength with softness, but as if the water is heavy, it can be infinitely heavy.
Gently wrap and crush.
It was the moment when L first invented the sword method.
“Thanks to you, I realized that swordsmanship isn’t bad. But I don’t think it’s really my style.”
“Shut up, shut up, shut up! A filthy devil or a worshiper’s mouth is open!”
Kang, Kang, Kang!
The sword is broken, suppressed, and falls.
When lifted up, it bends again.
This was a wall.
Any attack is blocked.
Even if you try hard to scratch the infinitely magnificent wall, the Great Wall behind you gives you a distant feeling of despair.
“Heo Eok, Heo Eok… This, the devil… The Contractor…”
Galihad was the first to fall exhausted.
El made an effective counterattack with minimal force.
She had more than half of her stamina.
‘No big deal.’
She was surprised because it was so much easier than she thought.
L’s talent is much better than I thought.
It was the moment she raised her sword to finish her off.
“Ha ha ha… As expected, the wall of talent is solid. I didn’t even want to show this…”
Are you mad at last?
Gallihad, giggling to himself, changed his posture.
Lower and stealthy. It looks like something an assassin would build.
“Are you planning on showing that? Galihad Mann’s secret skill.”
“I never thought the moment would come when I could see the secret of the Milliam family in person! I must have been pushed off the cliff.”
Biggie?
Ah… Come to think of it, there was.
‘Later on, I slept after a draw, and I couldn’t see them organized in one room, but each family has a secret skill they are proud of.’
It’s time to show that too, but…
I’ll teach you more about swordsmanship, but there’s no need to stop it.
I watched Galihad with excitement.
“Consider it an honor.”
The momentum has changed.
I feel something boiling around me.
He spits out a short word and runs first.
It was certain that it was the same sword itself that came up smoothly.
But something was different.
‘Can’t you see?’
The sword path was covered.
After eating the Jiryong Pogeunsan, the clearly visible sword path turned black in the middle as if it was covered by a shadow.
‘I see. Is this the secret secret of the Milliam family?’
Can’t predict sword path.
It feels like facing two swords.
A thickly-draped sword of deceit and a sharp-forged real sword flew at the same time.
Complicated and flamboyant swordsmanship.
If you try to hit it, you will be tied up and tangled up, losing your strength.
I’d never forget that this fool had one last move.
They backed away little by little.
“The momentum went to Galihad again. After all, it’s different from the nobility.”
“Yes! It was strange that a mere commoner would win!”
The aristocrat who hates commoners and hates finally opens his mouth to criticize.
Ladia’s heart burns as she is gradually pushed back.
“What are you doing, you idiot! Are you going to pretend to be proud and get beaten?!”
“Woah. I’m surprised.”
“Cheer up! Strength!!”
Hey, calm down…
Radiah shouted, restless.
Her students managed to block Ladia, who was about to run into the arena, with her body.
“You fool! Have you finally figured out your subject! All you meanest bastards are mere commoners! Kneel!”
She is pushed and pushed, leaving scars on her body.
At this state, you can easily predict El’s defeat.
When I thought it wouldn’t work, or if Radia had to shoot a huge flame magic to get in the way.
“It’s more suitable for an assassin than a swordsman.”
Kang!
I heard the clear sound of swords colliding.
Finally destroyed.
The swordsmanship he could see was still dizzy and unknown, but what he could see wasn’t everything.
El’s talent was beyond imagination, and her knowledge of the game combined with her knowledge of the sword made it easy for her to find out.
If you can’t handle two swords and can’t feel it…
Couldn’t she be able to perform such swordsmanship with her pure, hard skills?
“How does it feel to be cowardly and to be treated and yelled at? Aren’t you ashamed?”
“What, what?!”
Dalian basically has a rule that prohibits Auras. Because it was an impurity to come to the place where you collided with pure swordsmanship skills.
Currently, Galihad is a combination of dirty and despicable auras under the name of ‘Biggie’.
“Oh come?”
“I understand until it’s a draw, but it’s a bit…”
Of course, all the students’ criticism went to Gallihad.
“Damn it… It’s nothing more than a mace for a demon contractor! It’s about as good as an aura!”
“It hasn’t been revealed that El is a demon contractor yet. Until then, it’s pure sparring.”
“That’s right. Don’t you know the principle of presumption of innocence? The rumors seem to be true.”
“This is the disgrace of nobles, Galihad! Put down your sword now!”
“Kuh…”
I lowered my head at the harsh criticism.
To be honest, now Gallihad is garbage that cannot be recycled.
I’ve learned all of the Miriam family’s swords, and Biggi is a useless swordsmanship that can only be used with an aura…
It was a fish with nothing to suck.
– Will you use marriage?
Grandel asked quietly.
I shook my head.
“I’ve come this far, but I have to win on my own.”
– But the power of Aura is real. It would be very difficult to win with one pure barbed wire.
“Who is it?”
– Hmm?
I lowered my posture.
Put your legs shoulder-width apart and insert your sword.
Clear all students from sight. Only one Galihad was left.
A posture optimized for unleashing a sword.
Strengthen the arm. I squeezed the muscles of my whole body to revive the sensation of that time.
‘Well, that must be…’
Leatis staggered back.
Theo, who has a sharp sense of humor, also takes a step back due to the unusually strong wind.
Quick sword.
The time when I thought it was impossible and gave up the top speed.
‘This time it will be different.’
“What else are you going to do!!!”
Galihad goes mad.
PSTD grabbed a sword with bloodshot eyes like a soldier and started running.
Running without intelligence was more appropriate for an orangutan than a swordsman.
‘Cut.’
I filled my head with the thought of cutting down Galihad.
Concentration is at its peak.
How long did it take?
El’s talent for swordsmanship and the muscles optimized for battle formed after swallowing the Earth Dragon’s Foggish Mountain.
I felt that about an hour had passed, but in reality less than a second had passed.
Move.
Release the compressed power from end to end.
The sword rides the wind and cuts through the air towards the target.
The
Area is a minimized range.
Even if it didn’t reach the feet of the students, it was enough to reach Galihad.
Suddenly ㅡ !
The sound of something being cut echoes through the air. It was clearly heard in the ears of the students.
“Whoa!”
Some students collapsed to the ground at the sharpness that came over on the wind.
When I came to my senses, the tip of El’s sword moved from his waist to Galihad’s neck.
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
