Isekai Ryouridou

Joint Harvest Festival of the Six Clans (6) - Correct Bonds -

After a while, Degion, who had asked Tikatras to help him, came back with something strange.

Seeing that, Lau-Ray said, "Hmm?" and leaned his neck.

"Is that a sword?" But it's forbidden to take the steel out. ”

"This is a bag sword used by swordsmen in training!" The blade is wrapped in a leather bag, so it must have been named like that! "

Certainly, it was in the shape of a sword, but the blade was wrapped in a leather bag. Only the elongated pattern and the rounded rattan appear to be made of metal.

"The blade contained in this bag is bound with a strong and well-kept wooden board!" This won't break you, and you won't get hurt if you get hit! Of course, if you're not trained, that would be quite a pain! "

"Hmm. I can show you strange things." The Swordsman of the King's City, is that how he has trained in swords? "

"Hmm! We're always loaded in our wagons so that Degion and Vichezzo can practice on the road!"

Degion brought four sacks of swords. Lau = Ray, who took one of them and waved it around, made his eyes shine with "Hum".

"I was still worried about lightness, but it felt more like a real sword than a Grigi's stick." How are you going to compete with this? "

"There are different arrangements for battles, but if you get beaten properly, it's probably the easiest thing to understand." Any hunter on the edge of the forest could serve as a referee! ”

"Funny! If that's how we can fight you, I'll fight you!"

Then, Lem-Dom, who seemed to be tingling behind our backs, also stepped forward.

"Then I'd like to ask you to do the same." I've always wondered how powerful a female swordsman is. "

The scene was completely filled with signs of exuberance. The huntsmen who happened to be nearby also seemed to be expecting what kind of battle it would be.

Then Vichezzo suggested to his husband with a disgruntled look.

"Tikatra-sama, are you sure you want us to fight the sword skill?" The hunters on the edge of the forest have extraordinary powers... so it seems that their ability to protect Tikatras this night will be compromised. "

"Then you can take the other people to the castle today and go back to the castle!" That way, you'll be safe this evening! ”

Having said that, Tikatras smiled like a prankster.

"Or maybe just one night of battles could cause so much pain and fatigue that it will resonate tomorrow?" If that's the case, I'll have to change my mind as well. "

Unusually, Tikatras provoked Vichezzo. Vichezo took one of Degion's sacks of swords while hiding half of Anzu's shaped eyes in his eyelids.

“Well, I just want you to make one arrangement. Could you please not use your hands for beatings or throwing attacks? If you are beaten with the strength of a hunter on the edge of the forest, it could make it harder for you to fulfill your duty of protection permanently than tomorrow.”

"You're only competing in sword moves!" How about Lau-Ray and the others? "

Rau-Ray was full of joy and said, "I don't care!” he replies.

Dali = Souti was the one who raised a sedentary voice.

"It's Lau-Ray. This is the harvest festival of the six clans. If you're going to work on something you've never had before, you should get the approval of Ding's parents.”

"Oh, that's right!" Well then, I'll get you permission again! Ei = Fa, I'm asking you about Yamil! "

Lau-Ray rushed out like a deserter.

In the middle of the square, we have already begun to compare the forces of spare time. Roughly sewing between them, Lau-Ray aimed for Ding's patriarch to stand in front of the ritual fire.

"Totally Lau = Ray is one who can't stand it!" Well, if I was the same age as him, I would have behaved the same way! "

Tikatras looked back at Dan-Rutim with a smile and a laugh.

“So you're not interested in playing Vichezzo?”

Umuuuuuuuuuuuuuruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Having said that, Dan-Rutim looked towards the Vichezos with a bright and powerful gaze.

"However... if it was a life-threatening battle, I would have to do everything in my power." We're not as familiar with killing people as you are. "

Speaking of which, even when confronted with Doug, a warlord in the capital, Dan-Rutim used to say such words.

Vichezo burned his black eyes with his half-eyed eyes, and Dégion's diminished eyes shone gloomily. It was still difficult to extrapolate from the outside what Dan-Rutim said.

And without waiting for a long time, Lau-Ray rushed back. With that bright expression, I could already guess the content of the reply.

"Ding's parents have given me their approval!" The sword will need a big place to compete, so wait for the end of the power match! "

"Oh my God, you're making a lot of noise," said Georg-Zaza, relaxing on the rug.

"Well, I'll serve as a referee." I'm more familiar with sword battles than the others. "

"Hmm. Don't you want to face a fight like that?" Today, you can compete without wearing disturbing armor. "

In response to Lau-Ray's words, Georg-Zaza snorted, "Hah!"

"If Ray's patriarch is going to be defeated, let's think about it." Today, I want to enjoy alcohol and cooking more than my strength. "

"Then, I'm sure you won't turn around!" So, I'll wait for you there! "

Lau-Ray, Rem-Dom, and Georg-Zaza move to the center of the square. Vichezo and Degion were still reluctant to take themselves away from their master, but they still followed in the end.

Behind the table with the sweets, we stand side by side to see how you look like. I'm with Eifa and Schmiral Lilyn, Dalí-Sauthi, Vermes and Gemdo. A little further away, Tikatras, Lara-Roux, Gazlan-Routim, and Dan-Routim. Yamil-Ray shrugged his shoulders and retreated toward the rug on which Toole-Din sat.

"Speaking of which, Gemdo and Sin-Lou used to play sword skill games on the sidelines." From Gemdo's point of view, those two are quite skilled, aren't they? "

"Yes, I don't think we're far from Lord Degion or Lord Vichezzo."

Gemd answered in a calm baritone voice.

However, while Shin-Loo had won against Gemdo, he still had a number of worm swellings under his hand. Since Gemdo was so skilled, his ability to surpass it should have been considerable.

(The hunter's sword slashes Giba, and the swordsman's sword slashes people. Lau-Ray and the others, are they really going to be okay?)

While I was thinking like that, the original power comparison seemed to be over.

The people who were cheering on your results are giving a new cheer to the Lau-Ray people. Rau-Ray's presence in the Pharaoh's house made him a brave man in this neighborhood, and Rem-Dom is a hero in comparison to Zaza's power. On top of that, if Degion and Vichezzo finally showed their power, they would certainly raise their expectations.

While being watched by such people, six people, including Georg = Zaza and Din's patriarch, are saying something. Are you confirming any detailed rules? In addition, Georg = Zaza had not forgotten to take each of the four bags of swords and check for any irregular workmanship.

"Noo, I'm thrilled!" Both Vichezzo and Degion have developed beautiful sword skills, so please enjoy them! "

Tikatras wants to be alone. All the eyes = faces were ruthlessly expressionless, but the blue eyes were filled with bitter light.

"Hey, if it's Ai-Fa, how do you anticipate this fight?"

"... I can't say for sure because it's the first time I've seen an arrangement." If you can decide to win or lose according to the strength you have, then... Lau-Ray will win and Rem-Dom will lose. "

After all, Degion's powers do not extend to the hunters who possess the power of a hero, but they are likely to be victorious over the other hunters. As a swordsman in the outside world, I should have had enough strength.

"Now, let's start comparing the power of sword moves!" It's not familiar to us, but I want you to fight without shedding blood! "

Din's patriarch declared that way, and the cheer became even more pronounced.

Din's patriarch apparently acts as a referee and stays beside Lau-Ray and Dégion. Georg-Zaza watches the battle between Rem-Dom and Vichezzo.

Well then, let's get started!

On Din's parent's signal, the four touched their opponents and the tip of the sword. Such greetings must have been learned in advance.

Once the sword tips were aligned, Lau-Ray and Rem-Dom quickly retreated backwards. After all, it is a first-time game, so it does not suddenly impinge.

Degion and Vichezzo had their swords guarded. Degion was at the bottom, and Vichezzo at the middle. Like Melfried and Laylis, who saw it at the tournament, it was a beautiful figure.

Lau-Ray and Rem-Dom also had swords, but like the Degyons, they had no form. That's how the swordsmanship is like a savage military technique.

As they agreed, they walked around the opponent almost simultaneously.

It was a sharp step that demonstrated the hunter's physical abilities.

However, the two swords did not reach the opponent.

Degion thrust his sword straight into his right hand before Rau-Ray approached, and Vichezo parried Rem-Dom's attack with his sword.

Rau-Ray leapt to the side to dodge the opponent's attack, and Lem-Dom, who was parrying the attack, rushed to the distance to avoid a counter attack.

From the mangaki, a greeting comes. I was impressed by the sharp movements of Lau-Ray and the skills of Degion in responding to them.

From there, the two battles presented a completely different picture.

Degion and Vichezzo each showed a different type of sword technique.

With a sharp thrust, Degion was able to break Lau-Ray's approach, and the thrust followed. He was only 190 centimeters tall, and his arms were even longer, so there was a considerable difference in reach. When Degion repeated his pounding technique like fencing, he couldn't get close to his predecessor, Lau = Lay.

All-round Vichezzo is a completely awaited posture. No matter how many attacks Rem-Dom makes, he will tangle it with his blade and parry it. Rem-Dom is an apprentice hunter of the female crowd, and he should have unparalleled strength compared to the people of the town, so this was a surprising story.

And I--I felt that Degion and Vichezo's sword technique was beautiful.

Degion, who protruded his sword with machine-like accuracy, and Vichezzo, who wielded his sword like a flickering cosmos, were somewhat elegant and glamorous.

Even though it seemed to be able to do something with force, Degion's sword technique did not allow it. Even if Lau-Ray tried to get close to him with his piercing technique, Degion would immediately turn his sword tip in your direction. Not only was Degion's sword as precise as a machine, it also felt like a cautious snake.

Vichezzo is already elegant from the side of her legs, but after all, the tip of the sword hits like a living creature and softly parries Rem-Dom's attack. It remained a battle between the swordsman and the hunter, but it was a battle between Matador and the bull. Nevertheless, Rem-Dom was a surprising skill because he was a sufficiently agile hunter around the forest.

In the end, the square was cheered with unbeatable cheer compared to the power of the real thing.

Among them, Rem-Dom and Vichezzo were the first to decide on the game.

Parrying Rem-Dom's onslaught, Vichezo spun his sword and struck Rem-Dom's left shoulder.

Georg-Zaza says, "Until then!" and the people squeezed even more cheers.

And as we chase after it, we can also decide the battles of Lau-Ray and the others.

Our victory was won by Rau-Ray. Rau-Ray, who couldn't even get close to the target, leaped back a few meters with the help of a runner.

With that much help, Lau-Ray's body rises to a height of nearly two meters.

Degion quickly leapt to the side and tried to defeat Lau-Ray's attack. Raul = Ray was in the air, so he could aim all he wanted with his piercing moves, but he must have sensed some danger.

Lau-Ray landed without incident, and took advantage of the recoil to leap onto the lying Degion.

This time, Degion used his Push move to intercept her.

Lau-Ray slashed Degion's sword with a beating, and at the same time, he turned sideways in the opposite direction. So I spinned while Degion's sword was being played, and now I slashed Degion's torso with a beating.

"Until then!... Were there any injuries to guests in the capital?"

"Yeah... if I had already stepped half a step deeper, I might have broken my belt."

Degion answered in a gloomy voice, and Lau-Ray sighed heavily.

"A sword fight can be quite a pain in the ass!" But it was fun, Dégion! Next time you win, me and Vichezzo! "

"No, I wouldn't be comfortable if I played these games in a row." I demand rest. "

Vichezzo gazed sharply at Lau-Ray's figure before returning to us. And Degion bowed unto no man, and followed him. Tikatras greeted them with a full smile and applause.

"Both were beautiful sword moves!" It was a pity for Degion! "

"It's no coincidence... there was no chance of a single victory over that Lau-Ray guy."

"I, too, do the same." Whether or not you can bring poisonous weapons into the fight? ”

Tikatras laughs high, in response to Vichezo's noisy remarks. Lau-Ray and Rem-Dom also came back.

"Tikatras! Can you lend me a bag of swords while you two are resting?" The other huntsmen were also very interested in the sword fight! ”

"Please go ahead! If you're going to compete against the huntsmen in a sword fight, you can't miss it!"

Rau-Ray held the four bags of swords and ran back to the center of the square. I was totally obsessed with sword battles.

And Lem-Dom's face is a mixture of struggle and admiration, and he skips questions to Vichezzo. Vichezzo looked very annoying, but it should have been part of a meaningful exchange.

"The people around the forest will be interested in people with strong power, so it seems that this will deepen the bond again."

Vermes said that while shaking his red fruit liquor in the liquor cup he was holding. It didn't look so much fun, so I'll smile again.

“Well, I'm glad we're bonding. Let's make sure we don't lose that, too.”

"Oh, is Asta interested in me?"

"I hate it. It looks like Hermes is a bit of a child again today."

In my words, Vermes made a slightly sweet smile.

"Maybe so." I'm sure there's something in me that makes you jealous of Tikatras. ”

"Huh? Like I said, I don't think Tikatras is that well accepted..."

"It's not just about the relationship with the people around the forest. I... if it were true, I would have wanted to live like Lord Tikatras."

When I was told unexpected words, I accidentally clenched my mouth.

Vermes smiles again after moistening his poor lips with fruit wine.

"Lord Tikatras is running around the continent on his own feet." I see what I read in the book with my eyes, hear it with my ears, and feel it with my skin. Wouldn't it be so strange to be jealous of that? ”

”Hah... did Vermes really want to see the whole continent on his own feet?”

"Of course, but I don't have that kind of physical or financial strength."... I was originally said to return my soul at a young age. If the magicians at the Tower of the Wise hadn't developed new medicines, they wouldn't have lived forever. It's a dream that I'm going to run all over the continent. ”

Vermes repeated his words in a glance that seemed somewhat gluttony.

“But I wasn't dissatisfied with that life. Just by immersing myself in the book, I felt like I was running all over the continent. But I... by going around with Asta here, I was able to taste a sense of happiness that books can't get. It is a sense of happiness that you can get in touch with the existence of a legend that you thought existed only in books. That's an irresistible feeling for me... but I'm sure the persistence that comes from it will make Asta and Ai-Fa uncomfortable."

"No, it's never unpleasant..."

“That's fine, because it must be a proposition for me to love Asta not as a legend, but as a living human being.”

Vermes laughed and giggled, keeping himself away from me.

"It's true that I'm not very normal today." Let me speak slowly anyway. ”

Leaving such words behind, Vermes left.

Dalí = Souti slaps me on the shoulder, then follows. Since Gemdo was close to Vermes from the beginning, only I, Eifa and Schmiral-Lilin were left there.

"... it looks like Vermes isn't doing too well yet."

“Hmm. I think I'm getting sick and having Tikatras, and I think I might be upset.”

When we exchanged those words, the Tikatras came a little closer.

"Oh, Lord Fermes has gone?" Well, Lord Hermes doesn't seem to be interested in swordsmanship or fighting! "

While talking like that, Tikatras opened his mouth one after another with roll cakes and sweet no gigos placed on the table. Meanwhile, the glittering eyes were directed at the huntsmen.

"Yep! After all, the hunter's sword technique, which hasn't mastered swordsmanship, is full of wild taste!" It's as if the sword is the fang or the claw of a beast!... after all, I guess it was my guess. "

Guess?

Yeah! Maybe the people around the forest had the blood of the people in the sanctuary inside them.

I unexpectedly saw Ei = Fa's face, but Tikatras kept talking regardless.

"Of course, the people of the kingdom and the people of the sanctuary are people from the same continent. If they have been isolated for 600 years, they will surely evolve differently?" The people of the sanctuary, whom I had seen before, clearly radiated a different soul than the people of the kingdom. I always thought that the people around the forest had a glow similar to that. "

"Maybe... from the first time I visited the forest?"

"That's right. Yun-Sudra, Tuul-Din, Ray-Matua, Malfira-Naham... everyone had the same shine except Asta."

While biting the second roll, Tikatras said so.

"Nevertheless, the people near the forest are living in the immediate vicinity of the sanctuary." That's why I thought that the people who had abandoned the sanctuary had been reborn as new people at the foot of the mountain... but if you think about it carefully, the people around the forest had emigrated for eighty years. But then I remembered the legend that was passed down to Jagal's periphery. There used to be two sanctuaries in Jagal, but one of them was destroyed a long time ago. ”

…………

"And I remembered the heritage of my Sims. Legend has it that a family once called the Clouds abandoned their Sims and settled in Jagal. Their story of finding a new home in Jagal, after many hardships, remains a bard's song. That's where they meet the family of the White Queen... but if it's the white people of the Sanctuary, it's a perfect match for the legend of Jagal. For if the people of the sanctuary have accepted the people of the kingdom, it shall be called the destruction of the sanctuary."

"... we know the story of the [Black King and White Queen]."

"Oh, is that so?" Tikatras revealed his mouth.

"But, well, it's a legend from a few hundred years ago." I can't prove it now... No matter what, the people around the forest are so beautiful that they can't be beaten by the people of the sanctuary! That's the most important thing! ”

When Tikatras said so, the square was lulled into new cheers. Chim-Sudra, who was fighting a sword skill, finished off Jo-Ran after a close fight.

Lau-Ray, who was smiling, rushed over.

"It's Vichezo! It's about time you got your strength back, isn't it?" Another hunter wants to challenge Degion! "

"... if you keep fighting with your strength, the bag sword will eventually be damaged."

"Then I'll pay the copper coins!" Anyway, it's a battle! After this, we'll keep dancing and singing, so we won't be able to compete with each other forever! "

"Dancing and singing? That's what I'm looking forward to! Well then, let's enjoy the vicezos in the meantime!"

Pushed against their backs by Tikatras, Vichezzo and the others made their way to the frenzy of battle.

Then Ghazlan-Rutim, who bypassed Tikatras, sneaks up on me.

"I could hear the story." There's nothing wrong with Tikatras... but I'm sure these stories will upset Vermes. ”

I'm sure that Ghazlan-Rutim is right. I'm sure Tikatras has a knowledge comparable to that of Vermes without reading a single book.

(But... on the other hand, that's probably better for Vermes. Tikatras seem to live about twice as long as Vermes... because Vermes has acquired unbeatable knowledge of Tikatras running around the continent with his books and his deductions from them.)

Whatever it is, we should have the right bond with both Vermes and Tikatras. They have very different positions, very different perspectives, and each of them has a strong interest in the people around the forest. It seemed that the only way to converge it into the right form was to deepen the interaction in the right way.

Thus, the fourth joint harvest festival passed in a different bustle than before.
