Chapter 82 – Martial Arts Tournament
#082.
“Be cocky!!”
─Shuririririk!
Bianca seemed to be very angry, so she spewed out dozens of aura threads at once and sent them flying.
Each of them showed different movements as if they were alive.
‘Crazy..!’
I was amazed at the sight and immediately started beating it with an aura whip.
King! Kigigi! Caang!
Thin threads of aura that were invisible to the naked eye and sharp aura whips collided in the air.
[What is this about! Battles come and go at a speed you can’t even see! All I can hear is the crash!]
The audience was puzzled because they couldn’t grasp the situation, but went wild when fragments of Aura bounced between me and Bianca dozens of times a second.
─Oops! Cheer up Oh clothes!!
─Ooh. Yut. Light. Lay. Rain. Yes. Card. Oooooh!!
The cheers of the audience began to mix like an orchestra choir.
At the same time, Bianca and I exchanged seats several times, exchanging workshops.
‘Isn’t it simply sensory amplification?’
Dozens of threads all show unequal movements.
It’s not just that there are various attack methods, but it’s a feeling that other people are showing their own individual response methods.
This kind of multitasking ability is not normal.
It must have been the supernormal ability of the Aura practice method.
Peit!
‘Shit..’
It is quite difficult to fight while sealing most of the Frencia style swordsmanship.
Bianca smiled as a small solid line was drawn on her cheek.
“Are you ready? Ready to be my feet wiper.”
“No. Not at all. I’m ready to receive the technical report!”
Kaaang!
As Bianca shook off her sword using her strength to the fullest, Bianca couldn’t fully shed her shock and she backed off.
However, she soon spewed out her aura and rushed at it.
‘Ah fuck.. There are so many to come!’
I can invest karma to increase my aura, but Bianca can’t.
No matter how many elixirs he drank, there was no sign of the aura drying up.
If this happens, I will be at a disadvantage in the long game.
‘I can’t invest karma…’
Exceed is still circulating the aura in real time, so if you invest in magic, you can immediately process it into an aura.
But it’s too wasteful for that.
‘Now I just need to collect a little more…’
Not long before 3000.
Now, if you collect a little, you can take a picture of the spirit, and then you can also use the extinction.
‘Should I use it or not…’
Up until now, Frencia swordsmanship has used slash and flow.
That said, there are still many left.
In fact, there is no problem if you use all of them except for the empty moon.
Because it would be difficult to find a link with the Francia family with that alone.
The reason why Frencia style swordsmanship is so great is that there are as many as 7 powerful ways to use just one.
Especially in the case of 7 swords, it is unique.
The swordsmanship that interferes with space is one of the five swords of the Empire, and it is said that it is also in the East Continent.
But cutting the soul is nonexistent.
‘I’ll hold on for now.’
The Marquis Yurinas family’s use of Oreo was much more powerful than I thought.
So all at once.
Finish it in one go
Until then, wait for the opportunity.
As soon as the conclusion was reached, I started responding as defensively as possible.
Caang! Charleureung! Chae Ae-Aeng!
“What are you doing! Where else to try! Just like you did yesterday, take me down quickly!!”
Bianca started talking as if she was sure of victory as I concentrated on defending without even thinking about attacking.
‘Originally, if you brush your mouth first, you lose..’
It’s a famous saying in the canyon.
Bianca, who didn’t know him, continued to attack him and started hitting him.
“You bastard! Tell me! This… This… You bastard!”
‘What. Don’t you know how to swear?’
I had another great swearing, but at best, the bad guy was the end.
I thought I would put a pad lip on it, but…
Bianca lit her twin wicks as she laughed at her innocent and unsuitable appearance.
“How dare you laugh at me? Haaaaa!!”
Awesome! Sudden! Chow! Viscount Chow!
After that, he continued to look for gaps and desperately avoided attacks.
Fit! Phoebe!
However, it was difficult to completely avoid all attacks, and there were cuts and blood flowing here and there.
It was a scratch, but it was clear who would win or lose.
“Surrender! I’m sorry. I’m sorry for being so arrogant!”
“It’s because I don’t like it…”
“Benefit..!”
Deliberately provoking and continuing to dodge the attack like a rat, Bianca lost her temper and began to wield her aura.
Charleureung-
I use flowing water to drain it while saving aura as much as possible.
The wounds continued to increase, and before I knew it, I was drenched in sweat and blood.
The aura had already consumed about 80 percent.
“Surrender quickly!”
I don’t know what she was thinking, but Bianca didn’t attack the vitals, probably because she didn’t want to kill me.
Chow ah!
And as she passed by Bianca, blood splattered from her forearm onto Bianca’s cheek.
“Ah..!”
Could it be that mysophobia has helped?
Bianca stopped blankly, and I aimed for that moment.
“Suck!”
Dozens of aura whips fly at once.
“Cheet..!”
However, Bianca quickly came to her senses and wove her threads to create five giant aura swords, which she came crashing into.
And the moment Bianca’s attack collided with my aura whip.
‘Aura Explosion!’
Kwagwagwagwang!!
Dozens of aura stems exploded at once, cutting all of Bianca’s threads.
Taaaaa!
At this moment, when I rushed straight into the mood, Bianca staggered in shock and hurriedly raised her sword.
As if he was still brisk, he quickly covered his sword with an aura.
However, no matter how many Auras there are, it can’t be helped if there is not enough time.
‘Terrible!!’
Sudden!
The aura compressed to its limit severed Bianca’s entire sword.
And it doesn’t stop there, it goes on…
“Kyaaaaah!”
It stopped in front of Bianca’s neck.
“Ha ha.. Ha.. I won.”
He declared victory while watching Bianca from a distance that was not even a hand away from him.
“Ah.. Ah.. Uh…”
Then Bianca, who had been breathing in a daze, took a step back and sat down.
Sigh-
‘It’s pretty tough…’
As soon as he lowered his sword in an unexpectedly difficult fight, the emcee’s powerful voice was heard.
[The winner of the Magria Cup martial arts contest is~~! La~~hee hee!!]
A powerful voice spreads throughout the arena as if he were going to grind his throat into this cry.
And after a few seconds of silence.
─Ooooo!!
─Kyaaaaa!
A great cheer erupted as the stadium left.
‘It’s noisy..’
It’s obviously a harmful sound that hurts the eardrums, but it also gave a feeling that one side of the chest was pierced.
As I looked up at the sky and enjoyed the cheers, I suddenly heard a whimper.
He lowered his head and Bianca sat down, his tears dripping.
‘No, why are you crying?’
It’s sad that we didn’t win, but does that mean we should cry so sadly?
I slowly approached feeling like I was crying.
“Uh… Young lady? It’s definitely a waste to win, but it’s still great to be runner-up.”
Percussion!
Saying that, she gently held out her hand, but Bianca pushed it away with all her might.
Then she said through tears.
“You don’t know anything… Don’t say anything!!”
‘Even if he comforts me, it’s damn good..’
Besides, she didn’t like it when she acted like she was the victim.
So I decided to just do my own business.
“Yes. I do not know. But I still have business to see the young lady.”
“…”
Bianca bit her lip and shed tears at the calm words that excluded even the slightest bit of sympathy, then wiped them away with the back of her hand and searched for her arms.
She then pulled out some pouches and threw them on the ground, she said.
“Then eat and leave.. Stop fussing around.”
Tadadat-
Bianca’s last words disappeared across her aisle.
“What is this?”
She took her pocket for something, and she was startled by the information window that popped up.
“…Subspace?”
The pouch was a magic tool that was said to have been enchanted with space expansion.
‘Crazy.. Just throw something like this to get angry?’
As far as I know, the price of one of these small pockets is not cheap.
Depending on the grade, the capacity and price are said to vary, but even the most backward ones cost thousands of gold.
You could see that I got it for free.
While I was distracted by the subspace, the moderator approached right in front of me.
[Then! Let’s hear what the winner, Lai, has to say! Lay player. Can you tell me something?]
When I looked up after seeing what the host had put out, I could see the audience, who had become much quieter than usual, staring at them.
I was just wondering what to do.
“Um… It was fun.”
The entire stadium froze at the short, even futile acceptance speech.
[Uh… Is that the end?]
“Yes. Is it over? I have nothing more to say.”
With more words added to that, the silence in the audience was finally broken.
-Are you kidding me!
─No fun!!
─ Woo woo woo woo ~~
The audience stood up one by one and began to boo loudly.
‘Someone doesn’t want to say something cool..’
It just wasn’t really exciting.
Rather, I wanted to finish this interview quickly and receive a reward.
Did it last like 10 seconds?
[Quiet!!]
Count Magria’s short but loud voice suppressed the booing.
As a result, the audience stopped booing and eventually began to sit down.
[Kuhm..! To come right up to the throne. I will hold the conferment ceremony!]
Strangely enough, Count Magria looked at me with a hearty smile.
As he tilts his head, a knight guarding the count and his wife approaches.
“Go away. Your Excellency is waiting for you.”
“Yes.”
I made my way to the top table, trying not to be as noble as possible.
It would be a big deal if the examples of the empire and the kingdom were different and raised suspicion.
As soon as I stood at the table of honor, one of the organizers immediately brought the final reward.
[The inaction shown in the martial arts competition. I was really impressed! Formidable swordsmanship unsuitable for a 15-year-old. Very good!!]
After a simple congratulations, the staff immediately handed over the description and some of the prize money.
After receiving it, the count, who had been looking at me until then, turned off the microphone and made an offer.
“Your inaction is really worth it. How is it? Wouldn’t you like to become a knight of Count Magria?”
Judging from the fact that he kept talking about my swordsmanship from earlier, it seems that the count revere radish.
It’s a good offer, but I politely declined.
“I really appreciate the offer, but I just don’t have the skills yet. Please take it away.”
The count nodded as he awkwardly lowered his head, feeling that he was being as polite as possible to the commoner.
“Um… Yes. Then, I will grant you the title of a free knight. Get him on his knees.”
“Yes. Your Excellency Count.”
Immediately after kneeling down, the count tapped both of my shoulders once with the sword brought by the knight and declared.
[I give this man the rank of knight. But Count Vaughn does not reap. Notice that he has become a free knight!]
─Waaaaa!!
Cheers resounded like that, and the Count, who had been watching the scene quietly, gestured.
“Stand up.”
“Thank you. Your Excellency Count.”
When he stood up, the Count seemed to think for a moment, then he took a letter from his bosom and swung his pen.
“I’m just 15 years old, so take it.”
“Thank you.”
After expressing my gratitude with a puzzled expression, the Count handed me a letter.
“It’s a letter of recommendation from the Imperial Academy. As Count Vaughn sees, your potential is enormous. By all means, I want flowers to bloom at the academy. Will you take it?”
‘Academy?’
If it’s an academy, it’s definitely a place of learning for success.
Of course, it has now become a place of courtship for nobles, but basically it was.
Am I going to that place?
‘Isn’t that bad?’
I always wanted to go somewhere to take care of Bianca, but it was good enough if it was an academy.
In addition, the academy is a bar where nobles from all over the empire gather.
There must have been a lot of pretty women too.
As soon as I reached that conclusion, I smiled brightly and accepted it politely.
“I will gratefully accept Your Excellency’s favor.”
“Okay. It feels good to have accepted Earl Bonn’s offer so readily. I’ll see you later when I get a chance.”
After those words, the Count disappeared with his family, and the moderator announced the end of the tournament.
“Whoa.. Is it the end?”
I was relieved at the thought that I could finally check the rewards, and as I came down from the seat of honor, two women embraced me.
“Lai-yi-yi!!”
“Brother!”
Wow!
“What..! Vienna? And Mia?”
“Congratulations! And even win How is it?”
“It was great! My brother is the best!”
So the two of them clung to me in my arms and jumped up and down.
I felt a stinging gaze as I was smiling and hugging him as he was happy with his work.
Turning her head, I could see Bianca staring at me from the waiting room terrace in the distance.
‘It’s not unusual…’
With an ominous feeling in the atmosphere that something was about to happen, he immediately separated the two and said.
“Both. Do you think we should go soon? It’s not serious.”
“Huh? Ah Okay.”
In the rain, I followed my words and turned her head, and she saw Bianca’s bloody eyes and she just fell off.
So we left the stadium and quickly moved to the place we had promised.
“Hey~ Rai! Heard. You said you won?”
“Did you hear that already?”
“Then! It must have already spread throughout the territory? Rather, is it this child?”
Locke greeted me and smiled kindly when he saw Mia.
“You say Mia? I’m counting on you. I am Locke, who will take you there.”
“…My name is Mia. Please take good care of me.”
Mia accepted it quickly because she had already told her everything the day before.
After talking for a while, Mia came to me.
“Brother.. Later… Will you come see me?”
“Um…Well? What if you become pretty?”
Not wanting to darken her mood, as she made a playful joke on her, she said Mia stroked her own breasts, and she said.
“Because my chest will grow too. Should I come see you?”
“Okay. I will come when I grow up and grow up.”
“Really? Then it will grow much bigger than a melon.”
“Okay. Okay. I’ll find you soon.”
Promising to become a big breast, I smiled and stroked her hair.
