The Branded Female Fencer

"I can see it, all of it. It's strange that humans can move at that speed, but if they train with Jake day after day. They let me in and out of the Knights Temple practice."

"No, in that kind of problem..."

"You know what I mean? Why I like eagles"

Gemyaka laughing like a prank, but Vatorka was feeling a little uncomfortable. No matter how blessed you are with talent, you are not an ability that has passed against strength. It's called Jake, it's called Jaeger's face, and I feel we have too many talented people. This should never have happened in the hundreds of years to date.

"(I hear Arnelia decided to gather talent as per Kira Star, and became a hero and died. There can be an abundance of talent on the front lines. But isn't this... unusual? Or do you think 'here' is the front line? No, no way. Mostly this boy isn't even on the battlefield yet)"

Vatruka's perception is approximate. But I don't even know that Rascal once went through a battle with Insomnia. And in that battle, "what" affected him. Vatruka has no way of knowing.

And one more thing. Vatruka still has no reason to know that this is literally becoming the front line, not in a way.

Even while Vatruca was immersed in his doubts, the battle was ongoing. Rascal reacts ticklishly, and Vatruka is drawn back into battle as well.

"Out of equilibrium"

"Which do you think is the advantage?

"Overwhelmingly Aerial"

Rascal was right, Aerial, who had just been snooping, was starting to come forward at some point. Twitching one step at a time, he blocks Renatica's escape route with a spear. Usually Lunatica twisted her body with a piece of paper, but she was forced to defend herself with a weapon.

The faceless Lunatica's face was starting to cloud because she couldn't fight as well as she thought. It shouldn't be like this - I know exactly how you feel about saying that from around you.

"Dude, it's getting progressively one-sided, huh?

"What's the rate of balloon damage?

"... six to two."

Not many can catch up with their offense. But the balloon was visibly damaged and different. The trend of the battle has become visible, but how many people will be on this occasion who can understand where the difference comes from?

One is Mercreed.

"He's got my spear moves."

I was stealing. Aerial often uses spears as its main weapon, but the formal spear technique is actually not popular in the world. The technique taught to the general soldier is "stick forward, aligned with your neighbor. If it breaks through, replace it with a melee weapon". That is all. Spears in one-on-one interpersonal matches are overwhelmingly significant, and thus rarely lead to enough realms to establish themselves rather as technology.

In fact, there are more than 100 genres in the sword, whereas the continent's spears are predominantly just three genres. Mercury could use all of them, but Aerial has never learned one of them while using spears as his main weapon.

In other words, Aerial is an "awkward" amateur when it comes to spears, and he has honed that technology so far with only basic agility and judgment. That's what got me interested in seeing Mercreed's spear, and I decided to go see the spear division fight. For the first time, Aerial had witnessed spear moves and was alone in repetitive exercises.

I didn't have the thought of putting on this competition. But hunting instincts, which have exchanged lives every day, did not give me the option of keeping the new technology I saw intact. Aerial was self-taught and had a spear mould.

And that mould became the worst compatible for Renatica. Renatica was so crisp and heady that she had no more in her life. That's why I got stuck in the mud.

"(This - this way of fighting Aerial, I don't remember!

A spear in an orbit that changes like a snake is released with the unique sensibility of Aerial, not fitting into the mold. Both Renatica and Aerial are warriors who are inherently dependent on instincts and sensations, but Aerial's remembering of the spear's shoulders had prevented him from reading the spear's movements.

If I can't read ahead, I turn to the back. And there's another reason to be pushed.

"Luna... too responsive"

Layers held their fists in. The disadvantage of Lunatica, which was surprising to the layers themselves. The layer was flabbergasted to see if this could happen.

It shows the greatest body clarity of my life, but therefore my body reacts to the subtle changes in Aerial's spear. The body reacts to that omen that a normal person can't capture, and then forces a two-stage defense by changing its orbit.

And I'm confident, but therefore, the idea of a thorough defense and a counterattack was gone from Lunatica. Having surpassed the warriors of the silver clan, he thought he could overwhelm his opponent at some point. Winning confidence had taken humility and flexibility of thought away from Renatica at some point.

Plus, there's another reason.
