Price of Management

I couldn't believe it.

I didn't think I'd be able to fight with both arms in my hands, and I didn't think I'd be able to make Axe come up with all weapons in both hands.

An orb master with a sword in his right hand suddenly grabs the sword in his left hand, so he doesn't have the ability to make a blade the same way. The left hand was not as skilled as the right.

The results of the sudden vigilance were painful.

Kwajic!

“Grrrgh!”

A groan comes out of Rick's mouth.

I felt the pain of the fire. It was like being cut off somewhere.

... but my left shoulder is empty.

You see Rick's left arm flying through the air in panic.

“Rick!! ”

Basque lunges at Duke Romfel with a furious shout. With fierce aggression, Duke Romfel takes a slight step back.

“Are you all right?"

Basque, who managed to get Duke Romfel away from Rick, asks in a hurry.

“Ugh, damn it...! ”

“Stop the bleeding first! I'll hold him off. ”

Then Duke Romfel shrugged.

“Well, take your time. Let me catch my breath. Phew, it was so hard. ”

“This guy……. It was a double knob.”

Rick pulls out a healing potion, pours it over his severed shoulder and asks while Basque suppresses his fury.

“Right handed.”

Duke Romfel raises a small axe in his left hand.

“I couldn't handle Battle Axe because my left hand wasn't as proficient as my right. That's why I have this hand axe. ”

“If you want to make Axe come to your left hand...... you'll have to do it twice. ”

“What would an old man do when he's 110 years old who has nothing to do but fight? ”

“Monster……. ”

My teeth were shaking.

Luckily, he survived, but his son lost an arm.

“Anyway, it wasn't a lie to be stuck. I just hid my left hand thoroughly until the moment of truth. I've never been this desperate before. I'll give you a compliment, young people. ”

Duke Rompel takes his time, then stands up and smiles at Rick.

“But it looks like we're getting somewhere. ”

“Bullshit.”

Rick says it's nasty.

“My heart is in my chest, not in my left arm. And you can still hold the sword like this. ”

“Do you know the hardest part about polishing my left hand? ”

Duke Romfel raises the battle axe of his right hand and the axe of his left hand simultaneously. The sight of two branches of Aurora Axe flapping like a pair of wings was inexhaustible.

“A sense of balance. The axe in my left hand was too light compared to the battle axe in my right hand. I struggled because of the asymmetry of the weight balance and the fine twisting of the motion. So I don't actually fight with both hands as much as I can right now. ”

Duke Rompel stares at Rick and says,

“I think you have the same problem. ”

“ ……. ”

Rick can't keep up.

Duke Rompel's point of view is true.

The moment I got up and stood up straight, I felt different from my previous balance.

A month or a half?

I thought it would take some training to get used to it.

In this condition, even if you spread your sword, it will deteriorate slightly more than you would like.

Can't handle the end of the sword with precision without errors. When the control weakens, the sharpness of the attack disappears. You will not be able to threaten Duke Rompel like you did before.

The more the fight continues, the bigger the problem will be.

As Duke Rompel said, this fight was a loss to the wealthy.

‘What a moment of carelessness. I'm such an idiot. ’

Rick reflects on himself.

‘But……. ’

Rick's eyes are not yet that of determination. It was burning more intensely.

“You. ”

Rick opens his mouth.

“You were strong when you were born. Right?"

“Yes. They were all smaller and weaker than me. When I was in the war for the first time, I built a ball, and not long after I learned martial arts, I excelled my teacher. I'm embarrassed that this story isn't about the warm growth of a feeble child after all the bloodshed. ”

Duke Rompel gives a good four-year-old answer.

Rick says.

“I learned one thing when I saw you hiding a number of your spleen. Can I tell you something? ”

“Oh, tell me about it. ”

“You're pleasant and aggressive, but you don't seem strangely thorough. You don't spend 100% of your energy on attacks, but you always put 30% more on defenses. 70% was enough to beat the opponent. ”

“You know him well? ”

“Yes. You don't even know what that means. ”

“Huh? What's that supposed to mean? ”

Duke Romfel tilts his head.

Rick smiles, sweating and cold from the pain in his left shoulder, his arm cut off.

“Always the strong and always the victor. You've never assumed you were going to die before. You've never felt the bottom of my desperation right now. Just in case, you don't think he's old enough to live long enough? ”

“ ……. ”

The words of Duke Romfel have been blocked.

“Khhh, I knew it. I've never felt death. Unless you've woken up dead once, you're just as young in front of death as I am. ”

Rick prepares to stab with his remaining right arm. It was said with a splendid expression.

“So I wanted to show you. ”

“How are you going to show me? ”

“Like this.”

Blade blooms to Rick's long sword. The error blade grew larger as a huge error was injected.

Rick pours almost every error he has on the blade.

Blade with all his heart power!

Even the Grand Duke of Romfeld couldn't resist.

“Like you said, it takes a long time to fight for balance. But what if we put everything in one shot? Now, tell me! Can you stop a single blow with all my strength without any pressure?! ”

“ ……! ”

It was only then that Duke Romfel realized Rick's intentions.

Only one shot.

The young man was about to battle with a single blow.

Even at a young age, the error master.

Even the Duke of Rompel cannot be stopped by a blow from being carried out by a fearless warrior.

We must be prepared to take some hits.

Of course, one-on-one wouldn't have been a problem, but now there was Earl Basque Kunt.

Even if we stop Rick from getting hit, we still have to worry about the next wave of hits that lead to Basque.

“Here I am, dying soon! ”

Rick shouts.

“I will sacrifice everything I have and show you death! Father, you must kill that old man! ”

“... Leave it to me! ”

Basque also began injecting all of his errors into the blades.

“Kuhahaha!”

Duke Romfel blew up the mines.

“Rick Fernando, you're right! I've never lost a battle or felt a crisis. Whenever and how I fought, I never felt death. There's only one question in my entire life! What is fear?! ”

Kuaaaa!

Axe's two hands spread out like the wings of a demon, and he starts to shake with enormous power.

“Show me! The desperation I've never had! Show me your fear of looking down on me! I, Tom Romfeld, have come all this way looking for it! I wanted this fight! ”

“I understand that. ”

Bringing the power of the spirit to the sword, Rick says.

“If you're one of us, you want to see your end while destroying yourself! That's why I wanted to show you! ”

“Khahaha! Earl Rick Fernando! And Earl Basque Kunt! I'm so happy to see you! ”

Basque also responded with a keen, young face.

“Duke Romfeld. It's been an honor to be able to compete with the best unmanned men since the dawn of time. ”

“It's the best I've ever seen. Not bad!”

The three unarmed smiled at each other.

Rick finally dives for Duke Rompel. It was a mortal blow that claimed his life.
