14

Lecan went out to the front yard.

And I took the Rusk Sword out of Storage.

The sun and darkness surround the area, and the night is about to fall upon the town.

Arios came out a little late. I have a short sword. I guess I got it out of the "box" I had.

Edda came out to follow after that.

"Edda. If you want to look, loosen it on the edge of the garden. Don't move from there."

"Yes."

It's a small garden, but just fine if you think about the battle in the labyrinth.

Today's Rekan is not wearing a "Guiwang Bear" jacket.

Wearing defenseless clothes and standing in front of swordsmen like Arios, I feel tingly nervous. I don't hate Lekan for that nervousness.

Arios put the short sword in order.

"Arios. Don't you have the opposite handheld in your short sword?"

"Hands behind your back, is that it? Lord Lekan wants Lord Eda to learn how to defend himself, right?

"Shisei?

"Protect," he said.

"Yes."

"Then don't worry. In my school, there is a form of guardianship, even if it is procedural. It's also suitable for battle in narrow places."

"Then fine."

The two shut their mouths.

It's a battle between a long sword and a dagger, so it would be polite to set it up from a long sword, Lekan thought, and nearly stepped out.

Arios jumped in there.

(Whew)

No spare motion, quick jump in. Again, this man can.

Pull the short sword in your right hand to the left and Arios tries to get straight into Lecan's nostalgia.

Lekan dressed to intercept this and nearly waved his sword down from the top.

(How about that!)

If he waves his sword down as it is, Arios enters his inner nostalgia while preventing Lecan's sword. I am guided by that attitude.

Lekan bent his knees. If Arios jumps in like this, he'll be crushed by Lecan for a difference in stature.

Then Arios flicked himself around and entered the left side of Lecan.

(Don't do it)

Lekan didn't even rush, he jumped forward to the right with a knee-bent recoil.

Surprisingly, Arios has traveled perfectly with Lecan's move. It's a great reflex nerve and muscle suppleness.

Arios tries to hit the short sword on Lecan's left flank. Lecan flips the knuckle and starts the short sword with his sword.

But because the angle of the short sword was deeper than Lekan expected, Lekan's sword was diverted to the right.

(Good stuff)

A short sword tries to suck into the empty abdomen of the impressive Lecan. But Lekan's left hand, which he had anticipated, stopped disappointingly grabbing Arios' right hand. On its right hand is a short sword.

The two stopped moving perfectly.

"Good luck, Arios."

(Here. I'd be wrong to support them)

Behind the short sword is accompanied by a folded left arm. This short sword is a single blade. And this left-arm aid is why Lecan's sword momentum was unbeaten.

I wanted to see some more of Arios' struggle, so Lekan put his strength into his left arm and pushed Arios away.

Arios, who was thrust, had to drag off the ground and back off. But I haven't broken my attitude.

Rekan turned around and turned his back on Arios.

"Now -. Do it."

Which side are you on?

The darkness is deepening, although only a few hours have elapsed since the beginning of the match. These situations are the easiest to lose sight of.

The battle between swords and swords is above all about distance. But in this situation, that sense of distance goes crazy. What kind of struggle does Arios make in such an environment?

Disappeared.

The signs of Arios disappeared.

(This surprised me)

Of course, Lecan's "3D perception" clearly shows what Arios looks like. But if Lecan hadn't been equipped with this special ability, Lecan wouldn't have been able to detect Arios' position and behavior.

Is this some kind of skill?

Arios is imminent even if I think so.

When fighting back from a state of protection, Arios makes such a strange move, but when attacking from scratch, the movement is slightly monotonous. And it's too beautiful.

Without looking behind him, Lekan threw his right-hand sword behind him.

Without aiming again, the sword approaches Arios' head. Arios, who was in a state of complete aggression, reacted slightly late and began a short sword that flew in at the rind.

But then my attitude broke down and I can't react immediately to Lecan, who turned around quickly.

Lekan also grabbed Arios' right hand, with a short sword, disappointingly with his left hand. Besides, Lecan's right hand is always ready to attack. Arios' muscles made him nervous as Lekan swept through the rock's crushing bush.

"Okay. That's it."

When Lecan let go of his hand, Arios poked one knee and lowered his head.

"Shit."

"Oh."

"I'm afraid so. I didn't expect you to break it lightly until the Hidden Feet.

"Sfada? Did you just erase the signs?

"Yes. It's a walking method passed down to my school."

This means that it is possible to teach people.

At this moment, Lecan abandoned his plan to make Arios disposable in four or five days.

Even if you can't hide the signs so perfectly, if you can master the intent of making proximity and travel a little less noticeable to your enemies, it will be more property to Edda than anything else.

Besides, I didn't even know that short swords were such a handy weapon until today.

It was also well understood that Arios was worthy of being Edda's dagger master.

To fight with daggers, knives, etc., you have to jump into their nostalgia. Beginners with swords and daggers often try to attack enemies on the outside of the intermission, being deflected or disoriented to make a deadly gap. But a weapon does not exert its power unless it is used in due course. A dagger is a weapon that should be used in the opponent's inner nostalgia. That's why I have the courage.

In that regard, Arios let the short sword be used in very close proximity, not in the distance. If you could teach me how to breathe and do what I do, Eda's defense would become solid.

But only one thing worries me.

"Arios. Is the single-edged short sword what you're selling there?

"I guess you're not selling it. It would be quicker to order from a blacksmith to make it than to look for it. However, earlier defenses can also be used with a double-edged short sword if you put an arm on your left arm."

"Right. All right. Tell Edda what the short sword's all about."

"Yes. Are you passing?

"Pass. Then the apprentice passes. Even so, I don't know how to teach you how to fight. See how I fight and learn on my own."

"Yes, thank you"

"I said four or five days earlier, but I'll undo that one. In addition to those four or five days, six more days will be enough for my immediate business. However, there may be a deviation of about a few days because of the other person."

"Yes. In the meantime, should I teach Mr. Edda the basics of short sword defensive moves?

"That's right. After that, me and Edda go to the Ninae Labyrinth. Have you ever been to the Ninae Labyrinth?

"No. I've never been in a labyrinth"

"Right. You come too."

"Yes."

"Come and dive into the labyrinth with me, and steal my way there"

"Yes."

"Then can you teach Edda to do it on purpose to erase the signs?

"That can't be done unless Mr. Eda has that kind of qualities"

"Now, look at that qualities and do it. Then let's talk about it."

"Yes."

"Lecan."

"Yeah?"

"Six days, that means you're going to an orphanage, right?

"Yes."

"Huh? Where are you going?

"It's where horrible opponents wait."

"What kind of enemy is it that Lord Lekan is so told?

"Maybe it's the toughest guy I've ever met. I was going to put it off, but I'm going to settle it all at once"

Eda tells Lekan to be familiar with the kids, but Lekan still didn't like the kids. Leaving me to go to the orphanage, I feel like I can't sincerely enjoy the labyrinth.

I don't want to do anything unpleasant first, I go to the labyrinth with neatness.

That's what Lekan decided.
