Chapter 305 – 299 Helumen, City of Heroes
=Your name…… Yes, Sir Isilite. Watching Kyung’s sparring, his heart caught fire. If you need a variety of experiences, why don’t you try sparring with me? As a combat magician, you will be able to experience a completely different experience from Master.=
= Excuse me. My name is Suaram Lirerond, number 7 of the Heroic Knights. If it’s okay with you, may I ask for a sparring partner? My main weapon is a spear like your saint.=
= Well… Hello? My name is Dearu Ormus. He belongs to the Heroic Knights. If you’re not feeling well yet, why don’t you try sparring with me? I am a swordsman.=
At the sight of the heroic knights competitively requesting a sword, Isilite and Anne blinked their eyes.
Why are you asking us for a job? If you do, you’ll have to do it with a stronger person to improve your skills, right?
= No, sister, wait a minute. Where is this My sister is a combat magician. For now, please give it to your younger brother to train your sword skills, right?=
= Brother. Did the enemy come to you while covering the opponent’s type? If you twist it, you shouldn’t have moved first.=
=Oh sister, please.=
=Wait a minute, old man. I said I came first!=
= Write. Duaru, don’t you remember the last time I gave you a key material as a gift? Please give me some concessions.=
=That was a return gift for the gift I gave you before!=
The girls looked back at Hwanin at the countless requests to dance and the fight among themselves to join them first, but Hwanin was already talking to the lord.
I thought about it for a moment, but it was literally for a moment.
= Thank you very much. Isilite, class 5 swordswoman.=
= Please take good care of me. Anneya, a 6th-class Holy Fighter officially approved by the main body of the Church of the Land God.=
Even if it wasn’t so, the girls were also in a state of wanting to do something about this feeling of defeat.
It’s because I couldn’t compete because of the environment for about 15 days, but when I tasted a bit spicy today, my mentality was a little shaken.
Siha = Saiji smiled bitterly when he saw his knights performing the dance in turn as if they were comforting each other.
No one applies for sparring with Hwanin. It was probably because they, like themselves, felt an insurmountable wall from the man in front of them.
= This is the first time that heroic knights show such an appearance. Since they are all guys who live for their pride, I thought I might ask you to dance.
Chaeng, Chaejaeng-
Valid. Bang, bub-
“Isn’t it because the lord is by my side?”
=I am the head of the household, but I am also the leader of the Hero Knights. It’s because I know that the leader is not the ones who hold back what I want to say.=
Siha smiled shyly = Saiji clenched her fists. And stare at Hwanin with warm eyes and say.
=In that sense, a saint. If you’re not tired, can I ask for a handful?=
“Rather, this is what I want to ask you.”
=Thank you.=
Those guys are okay. It is the natural instinct of living animals to avoid fear. But even the one who leads them cannot do that.
And when will I be able to face the master of the highest level of defense?
From what I heard, Farhist’s Black Nogye was said to be a master of top-notch defense, so Siha = Saiji always wanted to stick with him. And he is a man who, in his eyes, has raised at least the highest level of defense to the level of a master.
Hwanin and Siha = Saiji laughed lightly at the same time and went up to the empty stage.
=Oh, the lord is sticking with the saint.=
=All those who are not on duty, gather!=
=Set!=
Around the stage, the Knights of the Heroic Knights surround first, and their servants gather behind them as if creating a layer.
Among them, the 3rd and 5th ranks brought wooden swords and wooden spears with nervous faces and politely handed them over to the two.
Holding the grip of the wooden sword, Siha = Saiji suddenly remembered decades ago, when he first picked up a wooden sword as a child.
His opponent at that time was his father. Even then, my heart was beating like it is now…….
All nerves are pinned to Hwanin’s face as he checks the condition of the wooden spear. The surrounding noise gradually disappears, and only the man’s face fills the field of vision, making it an unfamiliar feeling.
“I am ready.”
=…….=
Siha = Saiji’s neck trembled with tension.
At first glance, it looks like a beginner holding a spear for the first time, but strangely, there is no gap. Then I blinked her eyes, and this time her whole body is a loophole.
I feel like it will work no matter where I attack, but I feel like I’m going to be blocked and get hit back.
Even facing an iron plate that is several meters thick and several tens of meters high, it seems less depressing than this.
=Whoops.=
Siha = Saiji, who took a short breath, emptied his mind and delivered the best and best attack he could.
Footsteps repeated hundreds of thousands of times, plus a simple blow, but a sword that was swung hundreds of times every single day for decades.
And the one sword that led him to the promotion.
Hwanin’s eyes widened. I read that it was an ordinary slam from the posture and muscle movement. But for some reason, the approaching lord feels as if he has become one with the sword.
It was not a wooden sword, but a super-large sword that seemed to have been enlarged hundreds of times.
Seeing at once that this was a psychological atrophy caused by spirit and coercion, Hwanin stabbed the lord’s wrist while predicting the opponent’s eight moves.
Tadadadak-!
Puck!
In an instant, counterattack after counterattack, then counterattack after counterattack, the lord’s sword, which was trying to stick like a leech, was bent and bounced with a spear on the 6th move, and right after it bounced, he stabbed his left breast straight.
The location of the heart, if it were a real spear, the heart would have been pierced and killed instantly.
= Ah…….=
Siha = Saiji stared blankly at the tip of the wooden spear slowly withdrawing, then lowered the wooden sword and smiled bitterly.
It was a simple wooden spear, but it was an ordinary thrust that did not contain overwhelming force or phasic power, so there was no damage to the body protected by phasic power.
However, the word defeat was stamped in my head like a stigma.
He lost the skill match without even using the pseudo-light sword.
Siha = Saiji said again as he grabbed the wooden sword and stood up.
=Please one more time.=
Turns the phase power into the body and raises the physical ability. The lightning-like aura around her body begins to strike twice as fast, and the light brightens.
Hwanin also cast a low-level spirit on his body, then set up a wooden spear and launched three pseudo-light swords.
“…….”
=…….=
For about three seconds, the two of them stared at each other and read their numbers, then jumped in at the same time and swung their weapons at each other.
And Siha = Saiji felt defeat in the first match.
The point at which the wooden spear aims at itself changes countless times in one second. Neck, right chest, shoulder, knee, groin, wrist, shin, lower abdomen, forehead.
And a face cold and heavy, like the Hella River in winter that crosses Helumen. Three swords of light flew around its face.
Siha = Saiji raised her defense switch and gnashed her teeth to block and parry all the attacks pouring in more than 10 times in one second.
Until the middle, I read and calculated the numbers, but after that, I wielded the weapon without thinking and only with the instinct of a fox.
‘Ah. That’s why the Sword Princess and the Holy Warrior wielded their weapons without thinking.’
I think I knocked down my weapon about 80 times. The number of times the light sword and wooden spear hit the body began to increase.
He felt that he was about to shake his stance, but Siha = Saiji swung his sword to break into the gap between the spears somehow, kicking mainly the blows that would shake his stance.
If you use the skill you gained from being promoted to 7th grade and use the Phase Force Acceleration to get 10 times the normal speed, you will be able to break through all of those attacks and attack.
But it didn’t. The saint is dealing with himself only with skill. But he himself is something. Isn’t he in a state of raising his physical ability by turning the phase power?
Even now, the feeling of defeat clings to his chest, but he won’t be able to recover if he did such a thing.
=Huh!=
Siha = Saiji, who was swinging her sword without rest in her trance, felt a bright light pouring in at one point.
The moment I stabbed that point unconsciously.
Kwajajak!
Hwanin’s wooden spear was shattered and poured into the surroundings.
……….
Breathless knights.
The training ground became so quiet that you could hear the sound of dropping needles.
Hwanin felt the pain in his hand and smiled as he turned his hand behind him.
“I lost…….”
Siha = Saiji, who lowered his wooden sword a step ahead of him, declared with a wry smile.
= I lost. We became one with each other to the point where I wondered if I had ever focused so much on it in 10 years…… Still, it’s not good for you.=
“…….”
=The situation is clear. You didn’t even allow a blow and I…… Did you allow attack 82? If it was a battlefield, it would have become a tattered piece of meat.=
Hwanin thought it was unexpected.
At the end, he deliberately showed a gap to induce the weapon to be destroyed, and he tried to declare defeat using that as an excuse, but he never thought he would declare defeat.
Siha = Saiji suddenly became curious about the calm man’s appearance.
=Please answer me. How many numbers did you read?=
“…….”
Instead of answering, Hwanin only smiled slightly, and Siha = Saiji understood that technically at least four or five numbers were inferior to him.
Then, even though I lost, I don’t feel bad, but rather feel relieved.
Siha = Saiji, who was about to open her mouth, suddenly smelled blood, and the moment she held Hwanin’s hand behind her back and carefully stretched it out, her face hardened.
The spear in his neck shattered and the impact was transmitted to his hands, his palms bursting open and bleeding.
=Sorcerer.=
Siha = Saiji, who called her sex magician to heal Hwanin’s palm, muttered to herself as she tried to cool her feverish body in the aftermath of the rain.
‘Really. Even though it is weak, it is a very weak body. With a body like that, enough skills…….’
How strong would it be if that weak body was reinforced?
That Farhist black chicken is probably wearing magic tools worth hundreds of gold coins all over its body…….
Siha = Saiji, who approached him whose palms were fine after receiving treatment, asked with a smile.
= I was so nervous that I was thirsty. How about a drink?=
“Yes. I was just about to get thirsty.”
Leaving the noisy stage, Hwanin moved to a bar in a corner of the training ground and watched the white-haired Yinlang bartender skilfully open and decant wine.
I never thought there would be a special utensil in a special cup. But why are there no cocktails?
Siha = Saiji, who had poured 1/3 of the wine into her own glass at once, opened her mouth with a slightly reddened face.
=Hwanin, can I call you by your first name?=
“Yes.”
= Even though you beat me, you have a calm expression. It’s only natural that if you go anywhere and beat me, you’ll be immediately hired as a knight.
Hwanin also took a sip of blood-red wine.
In the mouth, the sour, sweet, and astringent tastes harmonize with each other without splashing out.
Hwanin swallowed as he felt his nasal cavity filled with the scent of an unknown flower and quietly opened his mouth.
“Even if I beat the lord with skill, I’m the one who loses if I raise my phase power and show my skills. It’s shameless to like victory and there’s no point in suffering, so that’s just it.”
=…… Daangxin is really unique. Whoa, it’s different from any other soul masters I’ve met so far….=
“I’ve only seen other spirits from a distance once. I wonder how it is different.”
= I will…. What is different?=
“…… ?”
I thought it was a pun, but when I turned to look at her, Siha = Saiji’s face was dyed darker than the color of her own hair.
“…… Are you drunk?”
= Oh, I was drunk, etc. One more.=
=…… Lord. You are drunk =
=Are you happy? Do you drink?=
“…….”
=…….=
Drunk on just a glass of wine?
Ahn Hwan-in argues with her female friends that even though her physical abilities have greatly improved after awakening to a melee career, she does not become very strong against alcohol.
However, even if the alcohol content is about 30 degrees, how about getting drunk with just one glass?
Hwanin exchanged glances with the bartender without speaking. ‘Is the lord naturally weak to alcohol?’, ‘No. Your alcohol consumption is 5 glasses of beer and 4 glasses of wine.’, ‘I’m just saying that you’re weak.’, ‘Sorry.’
‘Is it because I drank alcohol while the blood flow increased by turning the phase power?’
=Soul, let’s make it louder~.=
Watching the lord muttering to serve the drink, Hwanin slightly pondered whether to leave it alone, but then felt someone approaching from behind and turned around.
She is an Inho woman with brown fox ears and a single tail.
The woman, dressed in a neat uniform, approached with a little speed, but as soon as her Hwanin turned around, she sped up her pace and arrived, put her hand on her chest, and bowed her waist respectfully.
= Excuse me, saint. I am Essence Rita, the lord’s chief aide-de-camp.=
“Yes. It is Hwanin. The lord…….”
=You are drunk.=
“…….”
It is meaningful to look at the lord calmly leaning halfway over the bar.
=Yeongju is originally a child, and he is not good at drinking, so he doesn’t drink well in front of others.=
“Is that so.”
=Yes. I’m begging you, but can you help the lord and escort him to his room? It’s hard to get your hands on the lord’s jade body as a subordinate and a servant.=
For that reason, she took off her clothes in front of herself and even changed while being waited on by her maids.
Could it be a trap? I thought it might be a trick, but now it’s too late to use such a method.
More than anything, the image I showed until just now was honest.
“All right.”
Well, the more these mistakes accumulate and overlap, the more the debt consciousness will grow.
Hwanin made up his mind lightly and looked at the beauty with light pink hair who was mumbling with her eyes half-closed before he knew it…….
=Oh.=
He lifted the lord into the arms of the princess and looked back at the aide-de-camp. Five? Rani. What’s coming is it.
= You are a man. Then this way.=
“…….”
I hope it doesn’t induce sleep.
If that was the case, Hwanin thought that he would respond confidently, and nodded slightly to tell Yurpa, who was showing concern over there, not to worry.
