Price of Management

A true self, learned through the act of the mind.

A ferocious beast, constantly trying to fight, ran to the surface of the consciousness.

Kuaa!

The order flutters like crazy, and flows to the Long Sword like a Tidal Wave to form a blade.

“Huff!”

“Aurora Blade! ”

“Master!”

The disciples couldn't help but be appalled. An unmanned man who had achieved the same hardship as their great master, appeared before their eyes.

Especially after seeing his father Basque, Rick's face is almost frozen.

“Come.”

Duke Meutt, who also made the blade to come, said Najik.

“Rrrrgh!”

Basque attacked Duke Meutt like a beast. The disciples who were watching the frenzy grew weary.

Duke Meutt calmly defends himself.

Kuaang!

The smokehouse is buzzing.

The floor that the two of you stood on split up sharply.

“Hehe! Khh! ”

Boom, boom!

Basque roared elongated and swung continuously. You thrust Duke Meutt like a storm. However, Duke Meutt's face, which retreated and calmly blocked, did not have a flutter.

Battle of error masters.

Read and respond to each other. I've crossed a level where deception works.

A world of pure power and skill.

I see it!

Basque was delighted.

I remembered what Duke Meutt said to Arthur at the wedding in and out of Leyra.

“Examine the opponent. Every movement of the muscles, the psychology in the glare, the sound of breath, the angle of the sword, the shape and feel of a flaring error, living. The user looks at everything and feels and empathizes with the target. The user then knows what the target is thinking and how it moves. ”

That was true.

Examine the eyes with each fine hand gesture. In addition, if you observe the movement of the error, you can see which unmanned opponent is and how it will move.

Basque is where it comes from.

“Oh, my God. ”

“Teacher?! ”

The disciples are in a state of confusion.

The advent of a new error master shocked Duke Meutt, who was almost in a panic because he was being pushed by the onslaught of Bird of Kunt.

Duke Meutt is in the corner of the training ground.

Got it!

Basque was pleased.

I know that the amount of error and experience has not yet reached Duke Meutt.

But if there's only one thing ahead, power!

He was convinced that the fierce destructive power underpinned by his innate determination was ahead of Duke Meutt.

Now that you've driven us to the corner and cleared out a place to dodge, it was a single battle, a head-on collision.

Basque has increased the strength of the blade to come as far as possible. And I stomped the ground hard.

At that time, Duke Meutt held up his sword at an angle and stopped it.

Kuaang!

A loud crash.

At that moment, Duke Meutt leans to the left and unleashes Basque's attack. At the same time, he stepped to the right and quickly moved behind Basque's back.

Basque also quickly turned around and faced Duke Meutt, because he shouldn't be caught behind his back.

Then they changed their positions. In other words, Basque was cornered upside down.

“Oh!”

“Fantastic!”

The disciples admired him with a fierce fist. Your skills and your sophisticated steps in stopping that fierce attack have left your enemies in a pinch! Their teacher was truly great.

Duke Meutt, who pushed Basque into a corner, began a full-scale swift sword.

In fact, Duke Meutt's sword was just as fast-paced as Rick's. No, Duke Meutt's martyr Rick naturally resembles that style.

Duke Meutt made a swift attack and Basque was forced to focus on defense. When the movement was restricted due to the circulation in the corner, Milli became a pattern.

‘Even though I thought I knew enough about their movements, this is how it is. Duke Meutt takes one step further and sees the whole flow of fighting. ’

I had to admit that I was one step ahead of myself.

But even so, I was told to admit defeat.

“Khhh!”

Basque that started attacking again screaming. Switching from defense to rapid attack, the user lunges at you with a stab wound.

Boom!

Duke Meutt held his position, striking all such countermoves. If you step back, Basque will escape from the corner.

Kuang! Kuang!

The error blade causes an elongated blast as it collides at high speed. The aftermath devastated the arena. You scatter your hair in a shock wave storm. The observing disciples had to block the shockwaves that caused the error.

‘Harder! Strong!’

Basque has become more and more ferocious.

Duke Meutt is halfway there.

Almost there! ’

But it was then.

Boo-hoo.

"Huh?

Basque steps back, startled by the strange sound he hears.

Duke Meutt also stopped fighting.

There is a crack in the Long Sword of Basque. Unlike Duke Black Meutt, it was not a mythril.

“Weapons are no good. Do you want a draw?”

Basque shakes his head with a smile.

“No way. It's my fault I didn't have the right weapons. I would have lost even if I kept fighting." I can't help but wonder at the Duke's remarkable performance. ”

“You were amazing, too. ”

“I knew it was far away. ”

Duke Meutt shakes his head in Basque's favor.

“No. Do you know Earl Halstein? ”

“Yes. You're the Master of the Horn Empire who fought the Duke before. ”

“If I fight him again, I will fight until I have exhausted all my errors, but in the end, I will win only marginally. But you're different. ”

“What's different? ”

“You are the most ferocious master I have ever seen. If you fight properly, you will lose quickly. Your experience is still lacking, so I'll win, but I won't be safe either. Anyone who fights you should abandon their idea of survival. ”

Duke Meutt's assessment pleased Basque greatly.

“Thank you. I'll be more serious. ”

“May you continue to be loyal to the crown. ”

“Yes!”

“We have a rare guest here, so we must treat them properly. This is the end of the afternoon training. ”

The disciples were once again surprised by the early termination of the training to serve Basque like Carl. It was long enough to assume that the teacher was happy to fight the right enemy.

“Father!"

Rick comes running.

“Come on, you idiot. ”

“Ugh! When did you become a master?! ”

At that moment, Basque recalls Rick spreading his gossip.

“This father arrived a few days ago. Now, Rick, I'm done fighting you. Where do you think you're going to fall off the charts? ”

“Grrrgh!"

Rick is furious and shivering.

Rick has been using his father Basque as a rival all along. How can a father like that become a master and compete with his master? This was a nightmare.

“Master! I'll keep practicing, so go in first!" ”

“Rick.”

“Yes, Master. ”

“That doesn't suddenly make up for your skills behind you. ”

“Rrrrgh!”

Rick swings a long sword into the air in a frenzy.

“Idiot. ”

Duke Meutt chirped his tongue at Basque.

“Come on. Do you like booze? ”

“It's not much to drink, but I would be honored if the duc gave it to me. ”

“I don't drink too much either. Let's go.”

“Khhh! I'll be a master, too! ”

The two of you go inside, leaving Rick running around behind.

Suddenly Basque remembered something and said:

“Oh, I just remembered one. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“Someone who'll be fine to fight me. ”

Duke Meutt thought about it for a moment, then smiled.

“I think I know who that is. He should be in the Kingdom of Orion by now. ”
