111. True Education (1)

Whoo-!

The wooden sword aimed at Iriel’s shoulder cut through the air.

It was a dangerous situation where the sword almost came down on the body, but Iriel’s expression was calm.

“Huh… … .”

Iriel let out a coquettish nasal sound and walked forward.

Then, suddenly, as if something had fallen to the ground, he lowered his head.

Ash’s wooden sword swinging sideways a beat late.

Iriel raised his head again and slightly turned his body to the side.

Shuuk!

The gust of wind makes a noise, and the sting of ash

It penetrates the spot where Iriel was just now.

In fact, Iriel’s athletic ability is clearly inferior to that of other children.

Perhaps if she had seen the sword and avoided it, she might have been hit with a wooden sword and collapsed in one shot.

However, the price of experiencing Zeke’s liberation head-on.

The unusually developed sense gave Iriel a special talent.

It is the ability to distinguish weeds from weeds.

Iriel was able to intuitively know where the sword would come before the opponent swung it.

Since he moved one beat faster than his opponent, even if he moved slowly, his sword wouldn’t reach him, and he didn’t even need excellent athletic skills.

Of course, against swordsmanship with too fast speed to keep up with, or swords with an irregular trajectory, no matter how Iriel was, he had no choice but to be defeated.

A sword that moved not one beat but two or three beats ahead would require that much athletic ability.

However, fortunately, Iriel’s opponent is the Kilimbad family, famous for being rigid and inflexible.

And among the dogs, those who inherited that blood especially thickly.

As if reflecting his personality, the sword he drew down was also static and certain.

Poof!

Poof!

Poof!

Poof!

Ash’s sword continued to cut through the air.

His breathing quickened and his chin trembled.

Could it be that he was possessed by a demon or a witch?

Gradually he lost his composure, and impatience mixed with his sword path.

‘why… … . Why the hell! Why can’t I reach you!’

He knows that his swordsmanship skills are not that great compared to others.

However, I never thought of it as a weak sword.

With a sword that was firmly grounded and faithful to the basics, it has destroyed countless opponents.

‘I mean, I haven’t trained so carelessly enough to be ruined by a woman who has only held a sword for a few months!!’

His eyes were filled with resentment and resentment, and he glared at Iriel. As if mocking her own sword, she blew after looking at the gnashing of her nails.

Ash slashed his sword at the shameless face.

Iriel managed to dodge the sword again with a slight nod of her head.

Ash’s sword pierces the air again.

In fact, intentional stabbing in the face was a foul in the sparring competition, but there were so many Ashes that it was impossible to tell them apart.

“It’s boring… … .”

It was Ash who swung the sword roughly again with the expression on his face at those words.

Iriel turned around and yawned.

In fact, all such actions were quite intentional provocations to scratch the opponent.

“Seeing that this is fun, I guess I can’t be a real woman. I can’t even tremble in front of Zeke.”

A mischievous smile appeared on Iriel’s face.

“Wouldn’t it be nice if I could show you this much? Zeke?”

Dig-!

She kicked off and ran forward.

Compared to Serena, it was a weak mana release, but

Let’s break through with mana on our feet, albeit clumsily

Ash couldn’t cope with her sudden advance.

In his eyes, it was as if Iriel’s new model had suddenly disappeared.

and moment.

The feeling of cool iron on the throat.

A drop of red blood flowed from his throat.

“Little boy, you worked hard.”

Ash’s eyes widened.

And when he turned his head, red eyes filled with cruelty pierced him.

He managed to open his lips that didn’t come off.

“lose… … , lost.”

* * *

“……Duke Justia, Iriel Justia wins!”

The principal’s declaration announcing Iriel’s victory echoed throughout the arena.

Iriel’s sparring was a shock itself.

To the extent that the captain of the imperial knights, who was sitting and watching the match, jumped up from his seat.

“Oh My God… … .”

Goose bumps that run down the back of your neck.

The knight commander brushed the scruff of his neck. I could feel the texture of the rough skin.

Until the previous game, it was an understandable level of play.

The loss of Rosnante in the first game was disappointing compared to his well-trained body, but he understood that overcoming the trauma was not so easy. It was more common than expected for talented people to let go of their swords after going through a war.

The second, a commoner girl named Elise, did a cowardly move, but it was natural from the point of view of the leader of the knights who had experienced numerous battles.

Both the weak and the strong have only one life.

Her tenacity, like that of a hound dog, rushing at an unbeatable enemy regardless of means and methods, proves that she has the qualities of an excellent swordsman.

That’s why the knight commander was able to nod his head and give him extra points.

However, the image Iriel showed destroyed the common sense he had built up over a long period of time.

“Huh… … .”

An involuntary astonishment escaped from his mouth.

How many people have noticed the greatness of that girl here?

The knight commander turned his head to check the reaction.

“Did you make it beforehand?”

“Yeah, since I’m a duke and princess… … . Even if it’s a wooden sword, if you really hurt yourself, it won’t end as a joke from then on.”

“But, the second prince had blood on his head?”

“That’s because the second prince… … .”

“Hmm… … . It was a game worth watching. It seems that the sum of the splendid swords has been practiced for quite a long time. However, the ending was clumsy. Why did you wield it so randomly at the end?”

It seemed that no one truly believed that a princess from a high aristocratic family named Iriel Justia could have displayed such a miracle on the spot.

However, as the leader of the imperial knights, he knew.

It was by no means a coordinated move.

At that time, according to the movement of the opponent’s sword, predicting the attack to come in advance and moving first.

The moment the prediction is wrong even once, the defense fails and the move is close to gambling.

That is, that of a madman.

‘That… … . actually doing it… … .’

Even the first prince next to him, Ilios, didn’t seem to notice the true meaning of this match.

“Did Ash betray me… … .”

Ilios grimaced and bit his lip.

His only, if only, weakness is that he has no talent for swords.

The eyes to see the swordsmanship were the same.

It was nothing more and nothing less than a coordinated movement to look splendid in his eyes.

“why… … . why… … . Did he betray me? I believed it couldn’t be… … .”

The head of the Imperial Knights thought that I should tell him about Iriel’s ability even now.

However, he only came here at the request of Ilios.

Not on the side of the 1st prince, nor on the side of the 2nd prince.

The Imperial Knights were organized only to follow the Emperor.

However, the clever first prince had something to show with a confident expression.

The interest was found by using the vacation given to the East Sea three times a year.

‘It was really worth coming… … .’

Contrary to the knight commander’s satisfaction, however, the first prince muttered something while biting his nails, as if something hadn’t worked out the way he wanted.

“Rosnante lost… … . yes, that’s as expected But why did Elise and Iriel win? And there were no obstacles to their movements… … . Didn’t you drink water… … . No, but… … . Yuri said she shared the water and drank it… … . How the hell did you do it!”

Then he opened his eyes and half-opened them.

“but… … . Serena hasn’t arrived yet… … . So, the one left is Yuri Gilbert.”

Ilios put on a visibly relieved expression.

Yes, the match so far is 1 to 2. Zeke Kleiman’s half is ahead.

However, if it was Yuri Gilbert, at least in this draw, there would be no problem with the script he had written.

‘Yuri Gilbert. lose in Dalian Then I will forgive all your mistakes.’

Serena’s absence.

In the end, I had no choice but to leave.

Yuri actually wanted to end this sparring just by taking medicine in the water.

My heart pounded in two.

The sour saliva goes over and the stomach turns the other way.

“Turn it off.”

Gritting her teeth forcibly, Yuri swallowed the vomit.

‘Sorry… … . sorry… … .’

I muttered meaningless words out of guilt,

There was no other option but to lose this match.

otherwise the father would not stand still.

Even now, he could see his father glaring at him from the audience.

and 1st prince. Ilios, too, did not speak,

I could feel what he was saying so vividly.

Opposite her came the last sparring opponent.

Originally, that person who would have been defeated as Serena’s opponent was said to be the most outstanding person in Instructor Dios’ class.

That was the fortunate part.

‘It wouldn’t be strange to lose.’

The strongest person in the other class.

He even tried to lose on purpose, but he would not be able to win.

“… … Then, let the final sparring begin!”

The bell rang announcing the start of the game.
