Chapter 270 – 270. Unintentional Discovery (1)
Since I didn’t want to go straight back to the castle, Tiona took her Myka and headed to her adventurer’s guild.
The Adventurer’s Guild also has a space used as a training ground, so I was thinking of using that space.
Tiona and Myka, who entered the guild, happened to come back from patrol and encountered Munton, who was resting for a while at the adventurer’s guild.
“Ah! It’s Munton!”
“Myka? I was bored again, so I came to the guild to hang out… Huh? Ti, Princess Tiona!”
As soon as Munton saw Tiona, she immediately lowered her head.
“Hello.”
“Yes, Munton. Thank you for your hard work as always.”
“No. This is my job too.”
Tiona, who regularly patrols with her soldiers to defeat monsters, has many opportunities to come face to face with Munton, who is also a priest and uses his nimble movements to patrol here and there in Suzar.
“But why is Tiona talking to Myka…”
In response to Munton’s question, Maika raised her arms and shouted.
“I’m going to spar with Tiona!”
“Are Myka and Tiona sparring?”
“Well, we did it a few times when we were at the academy. Both Maika and I want to move our bodies, so we’re doing it lightly.”
“I see.”
Munton understood Tiona’s words, but looked at Myka with concern.
‘You won’t cause another accident, right?’
Of course, it’s an accident that Maika gets into. Most of her pranks can be considered cute in a way, even if it gets her in trouble a little.
It’s just that a lot of her stamina is used up.
But the opponent is the princess of this country.
What if Myka hurts Tiona during the sparring…
‘No, you don’t have to worry about that.’
Munton also knows Tiona’s personality.
He is not a narrow-minded person who blames Maika for getting hurt during sparring.
‘Still, I’ll have to watch it first.’
Munton decided to watch the two’s sparring so that if Tiona or Myka got hurt, they could be treated immediately.
Tiona and Myka moved to the training room.
And following them, not only Munton but also adventurers who were killing time at the adventurer’s guild as well as cadets from the academy who happened to be there at the time followed them.
“It’s a sparring match between Princess Tiona and Myka.”
“You mean that troublemaker Myka?”
“Should I say that he really looks like a beastman or not…”
“He’s a good kid, but if he acts too much, it’s wild…”
“That troublemaker is now a strong person active in the Fortis Group like Princess Tiona.”
“Wow! Before I knew it, I was overtaken!”
“Is it sparring between the same group?”
“I guess so. But Princess Tiona and Myka… Who is stronger?”
“It’s a sparring between Fortis groups… This is my first time seeing you.”
“Really? I see you often when I come to the gym?”
“I’m busy learning magic… And it’s vacation right now.”
Adventurers and academy cadets following along but chatting loudly among themselves in the background.
The fact that members of the recently buzzing and most talked-about group were sparring with each other was a topic that naturally sparked conversation.
Tiona and Myka arrived at the sparring hall and immediately took their seats and confronted each other.
“Come anytime, Myka.”
“Yes!”
Maika ran out with the answer.
While working in the Portis Group, Maika learned something naturally.
Unless it is a field boss level monster, most monsters are easily defeated.
Atsuval fires an area-wide attack from afar, and even Pamela’s Crushing Nail, which is applied as a debuff in the fortress, will kill any mediocre monster in one go.
This is because everyone awakens once in a while, and as they continue to use the skill repeatedly, their proficiency increases and their power increases.
Excluding the deadline since there are many cases where monsters die in one hit from the beginning.
In other words, for Maika, who wanted to fight multiple times, the most important thing was speed.
Jump out faster than anyone else and increase the number of monsters to defeat.
And with that thought, Myka’s lunge became faster than before and was used towards Tiona.
Micah’s golden fur and hair quickly divide the space.
Those who are here at that speed.
It was not a speed that even Munton could easily follow with his eyes.
‘… It’s fast!’
Munton was worried about a moment.
A punch thrown at Myka at that speed.
I’ve known for a long time that Micah’s punches and kicks have extraordinary power.
But what if a punch or kick is thrown at that speed?
When Munton was wondering if he should go out and stop him.
Tiona moved.
Maika was a character with a strong attack coefficient in Rupan, which Sihan played.
However, that does not mean that Tiona is a weaker character than Myka.
Because Tiona Bitters is a pickup character that came out later than Myka.
Although it could not be said to be a fraudulent character that would shake up the balance, it was a character with decent abilities.
Nickname: Gukbap Tiger.
If you already have a rough build, there’s no need to change it, but it’s a stable character that delivers decent damage no matter which party you’re in.
Therefore, it was a popular character even for Lupan newbies who entered the game late.
In particular, it was so popular that some users insisted on using only Tiona.
The reason was Tiona’s skill.
Two attack skills consisting of a horizontal cut and a vertical cut.
Taeho’s claws and Taeho’s molars.
The final skill is the Taeho sword, which creates a huge rock sword by surrounding the great sword with magic.
And the counterattack that is the cause of Tiona’s core popularity.
Taeho Bantan.
When used, if you take a blocking stance with the great sword, a translucent shield will appear around you.
A skill that allows you to deliver a strong blow while deflecting the enemy’s attack if you are attacked while the shield is being created.
In other words, Tiona Bitters was a character that could be parried.
“Geumrangwon!”
“Taihu Bantan!”
Myka’s lunging fist collides with Tiona’s shield, which was deployed using a counterattack.
Paaaaa!
The moment Myka’s fist touched her shield, her shield exploded with light, as if pushing away her opponent.
“Wow!”
The moment the parry was activated, Maika’s fist bounced back.
“Haaaaa!”
Then, looking for an opportunity, Tiona successfully counterattacked and swung her great sword.
In a game, this is an attack that will absolutely hit you the moment you succeed.
But this is not a game.
“Yay!”
Just as Tiona was about to swing her sword, her arm was thrown away and Myka jumped in her place, kicking the ground with all her might.
With strong strength from the beginning, Micah jumped a height of over 5 meters.
Jumping high is an essential skill to deal with huge enemies such as field bosses.
Jumping to great heights in one go is something Maika is used to.
“Tch! I avoided it.”
“Oooooh!”
Even though her own fist bounced, Maika was not surprised. Instead, she smiled brightly and let out her roar.
“It’s fun! Geumrangak!”
Micah swung her foot as she fell from above in joy.
However, unlike before, the falling speed was constant, so Tiona had no intention of simply blocking the attack.
Tiona kicks the ground and spreads her distance
Kwaaaaa!
Maika’s golden rangak, having lost her target, hit the ground.
The moment it hit, a cloud of dust was created, and a small creator appeared on the floor.
‘If you hit it right, it’s going to be really painful.’
“What is that? The ground was dug, was it dug?”
“How strong is that skill…”
“I never want to get hit.”
When you agree in your heart with the voices of the audience.
Myka rushed back through the cloud of dust.
Tiona thought as she looked at Myka, smiling brightly and approaching at high speed.
‘Of course it’s much better than swinging a sword alone!’
Tiona had a personality just as belligerent as Myka.
◈
If I were to objectively describe the match between Myka and Tiona, it would be fair to say that it was a close fight.
Micah pushing at high speed.
Tiona counterattacks the attack appropriately and tries to land a sure hit even though she is slower than Myka.
However, Myka also took advantage of her speed to momentarily avoid Tiona’s attack.
A match in which neither party is able to properly land a fatal blow.
However, rather than feeling frustrated, the two people who were sparring were smiling at each other and happy to see each other’s skills.
The battle itself against the strong was enjoyable.
But there is an end to everything.
The sparring between the two eventually ended.
But that’s not because one of the two lost.
“You both go there!”
Due to Munton’s restraint, there was no choice but to end the sparring.
“Huh? Why are you stopping me? It’s fun!”
“Mungton, it’s so hot, but to stop like this…”
“… I would like you both to take a look at your surroundings.”
“”Huh?””
“Ah.”
At Munton’s words, Myka and Tiona checked their surroundings.
This is the adventurer’s guild’s training ground.
Let’s say it’s a training center. It is no different from an ordinary rectangular yard.
You cannot expect the intensity of a professional facility like that used for sparring like an academy.
Since Tiona and Myka’s attacks were used directly with their bodies and there were no flashy attacks using magic, there was no harm to the audience watching.
However.
The guild’s training ground was not strong enough to withstand the intense sparring between the two and maintain its original condition.
Not only were small creators created by digging here and there, but Tiona’s sword attack also caused the floor to crack and become a mess.
Munton stopped the two from sparring to the point where repairs were possible.
Tiona felt a little regret as she looked at the training ground that had become a mess due to their sparring.
‘Oh, I’ll just take you to the royal castle.’
