The Old Knight of a Frontier District

Episode 5: The Fine Sword Division Battle (Part 1) "Illustration: Chantillion"

1

"Lord Bardo!

What a game. What a game.

I, no, I'm not the only one.

They were all given a trembling touch.

Aren't you treating that knight who overthrew the mighty man of our country like a child "

Doria Tessa jumped in again.

You don't seem to feel any resistance to entering this room.

I doubt this will do.

Nevertheless, I'm worried about what Doria Tessa can look like from around me, and I'm not offended by Bardo himself.

It's just the right opportunity, so I asked what I cared about.

After Bardo chose the weapon, the venue had an odd vibe, but I wondered why.

"What?

Yes, no, that one.

They were all taken away.

To Lord Bardo, who wields that great sword with one hand.

Moreover, Lord Bardo, with his shield and sword, was somewhat of a different character.

He looked two or three times bigger than the other knight than the size of his body.

I hated that knight until then, but suddenly I felt sorry for him.

I was even glad it wasn't the knights of my country who won. "

This sounds like a lot to me.

As a matter of fact, Bardo came to the game with a rash.

Fortunately, the pain in my shoulders and elbows is healing, so I thought I'd show you where to be patient at best.

With that said, Doriatessa peeled and denied.

"That's not true!

I've always thought Lord Bardo was too underrated for himself.

Don't you realize you're a hero? "

This was hilarious.

I laughed out loud.

A hero is.

Nevertheless, I see from Doria Tessa, Bardo is a hero.

Because it saved me from a crisis of absolute destiny and gave me something that was supposed to be out of my reach.

But in fact, it was Jurchaga who found Doria Tessa, and it was Cars' power to defeat the Knights.

The battle against the Warcraft, it was Cars who gave me the information, and it was a battle I could have won without Bardo.

Denying it would only upset him, so Bardo asked if the battle was okay tomorrow.

"Huh?

Oh, of course, I'm not lazy with my training.

I never thought this would happen. "

I wondered how to say it that didn't boil off, and asked why.

"Huh?

Didn't Jurchaga tell you?

No, actually. "

A contestant in the Fine Sword division of the Goriola Empire said it was an unlikely blur in the face of the year.

First, Magistra Guerri.

This person is not unnatural.

He is the second son of the Baron, and his father has also kept a team of Kingsguards.

Magistra herself, appearing early on swordsman and publicly declaring herself to stand in the martial arts, this appearance had been definitively seen.

The remaining two are the problem.

First, Gassara Eudiel.

He's an active general who turns 51.

Earlier in the war, he made great strides and has the alias of General North Expedition.

Already more than a decade ago, he has won divisions IV and VI.

Killy Halifalus.

He is a Kingsguard Martial Arts Master.

He is in a position to teach martial arts to various Kingsguard knights.

I don't know a few martial arts traditions when I was young.

I use weapons in general, but I am particularly adept at fine swords and may be called a master among masters.

He is also the master of Doria Tessa.

Whether you are General Gassara or Master Kiley, you are not the person who will be standing up and naming yourself.

He's not the kind of person to compete in a border martial arts club right now.

It was the King's decision that made this facial rash, and where it was intended, it was Doriatessa's Division V victory, first and foremost for sure.

These three will not lose to young samurai and others competing from the kingdom of Parzam.

If you hit Doria Tessa, you lose, otherwise you win.

At best, Doriatessa picks up a Division V victory.

Oh, I see, I thought.

According to what Jurchaga tells me, Doriatesa is a very high-profile person today.

The people will be disappointed if they lose easily.

"At first I was angry and regretted it.

But I decided to reconsider.

Then I'm going to win Division VI, and I'm going to pull everyone out.

No, that's not all.

Even in the fifth division, you hunt him down so much that you can't help but take a grand victory. "

"It's hard."

It was Cars who said that.

It's been a long time since I've heard a voice.

Bardo looked at Cars and thought, "Oh, no.

Cars usually has a slight eye opening for the slit length narrowing on his sleeping beard.

Both the upper and lower eyelashes are long, so it's badly impressive when they open up at all.

The eyes, usually amber, are now close to yellow.

It's a sign of exaltation.

When this man really elevates his mind, his eyes turn golden.

When I made him take the knight's oath by the waterfall, I found out about it.

Julchaga also has a body that changes the color of his eyes when he gets excited.

It changes from light brown to bright green.

Humans Everyone changes the color of their eyes slightly due to their emotions, physical condition and environment, but it is rare for them to change as dramatically as these two.

Doria Tessa tied the knot neatly but eventually,

"But I will.

I will not waste your teaching. "

I said.

In the mountains that once defeated the Warcraft, Doriatessa poked her knees asking Bardo, a strangely doomed benefactor, to lead herself to victory at the Border Race Martial Association.

Bardo slackened Doriatesa's guidance to Cars Lowen, the sword ghost he had just adopted.

In other words, Cars falls to Doriatessa's master.

Does this chilled man also care just about the battle of his disciples?

Doriatessa probably thinks she was told it was difficult to win in Division VI.

But I wondered if that's really what Bardo meant.

"I almost forgot something important.

Lord Bardo.

The princess is very pleased.

I didn't expect you to say that much, you said you felt like rising to heaven, and that seemed happy.

He just did the samurai in the garden and thanked the sun god for his grace. "

I didn't know what you were talking about, so I asked.

At the end of the talks, Jules Rant said that when the red Soliespi flowers bloom, they would be able to send a letter.

Soliespi is a flower used for female prints at the home of Shernelia's mother.

Shernelia also inherits the female print.

Red is a word for burning love.

In other words, Jules Rant's words are also unique in applying for marriage.

Soliespi flowers bloom in autumn.

Six months later.

It will be shortly after the Rikoko ceremony.

Of course, we still do not know what King Parzam or the Senate will say about this fringe.

However, there is no doubt that the utmost expression of will was made as Jules Rant.

Nevertheless, thanking the sun god for his grace is not.

I can tell this from Baldo.

When your lady falls in love with a knight, she prays to the patron saint of that knight for grace.

Offer offerings and rituals, and try to be liked by that God.

Because then the god will turn the knight's heart to us.

So the lady, who sees the knight, first tries to know the god to which he is devoted.

Jules Lant deposited her vows. God is the Sun God Korama.

I thought she was a pretty princess, and I was curious.

Seriously.

How did Princess Shernelia find out about Jules' patron saint?

A patron saint is not at all like keeping it a secret, but it is not something that speaks to people very lightly.

I don't want to be taken advantage of in a bad way.

There is no way that King Parzam's subordinate will sweep the patron saint of Prince Juleland around a man.

Whatever happens between knights, it's a terrible bump for your lady to ask the guardian saint directly to the knight.

In fact, we didn't even talk about that during that meeting.

So when and how did Princess Shernelia find out about Prince Julelant's patron saint?

Bardo thought she was a princess at the bottom.

The same goes for Jules Rant, who had a prior grasp of Princess Shernelia's female print, but Bardo didn't realize it at this time.

2.

I went to see how Uytan was doing.

Inside the horse release fence, it would be narrow for Yuetan, a wild horse, but he spends less time in a mood.

Until the end of the martial arts competition, you will not be able to leave the castle of Rhode Van as much as a horse.

Yueitan is running yummy.

Exactly, there are fine horses gathered here, but among them, the white giant of Uytan stands out.

Other horses are paving the way as Uytan moves on.

King-like style.

Next to it, a little late, Krilzka is running.

Krilzka is Doriatessa's horse.

These two horses got along perfectly just as the Baldos were behaving together with Doriatessa.

Satra, Cars' horse, isn't too close, either, but she doesn't try to swarm much to see if she looks like her husband.

A horse farm manager (Banbaosa) ran by and greeted Bardo.

Bardo thanked him.

It is apparent at first glance that the horses are fed and well cared for by both food and exercise.

"No.

Thank you for having quite a drink this time.

I've never had such a good grilled liquor before.

And the horses are quiet, thanks to Uytan. "

The horse of a knight fighting on the front line, he has a rough temper.

Horses wake each other up.

It's not good if humans talk too much about this, says the Horse Farm Manager.

The order of the horses is for the horses themselves to decide, and if they are forced to hold it down, they will be dissatisfied.

Horses are smart creatures with angry and troubled minds.

Nevertheless, I have trouble getting into enough contention to get hurt.

But he didn't get any rashes this time.

I almost woke up, but it seems that Yuetan had picked on the horses who seemed to be strong and quickly decided on an upward and downward relationship.

If the boss decides, the horses won't make a mess of it.

I wish humans were as sarcastic as horses, Bardo thought.

There came Zaifert, head of the Knights of the Parzam kingdom border.

I guess I'm here to check on the horses.

I thought it was just fine and Bardo asked what he was concerned about.

On the sixth day there will be overall divisional matches by each winner and semi-winner of Divisions II, III, IV and V.

From what I've seen, Division II to Division IV contestants wear very heavy and fine protective gear, but I wonder if Division V, or Fine Sword Division contestants, is hard to fight.

Zaifert is:

"To the best of my knowledge, no contestant in the fine sword division has ever won the overall division"

I replied.

That's right, Bardo thought.

I mean, Doriatesa's willing to win both Division V and Division VI, but that's a very difficult thing to do.

Sky is low.

It's a rare cloudy sky this season.

A number of large clouds, high and low, flow from east to west.

Where the hell does this cloud come from and go?

The draw is over.

Doriatessa was set to go into the fourth game.

The first game is against Killy Halifalus and Chantillion Graybuster.

Killy, the Kingsguard martial arts teacher of the Goriola Empire, is an old samurai with short chopped black hair and a good moustache.

Covering his whole body with black leather clothing.

Probably wearing chained pieces underneath.

The owner of a solid skeleton, but due to his upper back, he is more of a soothing figure.

Chantillion is a young man with golden hair and white skin.

Black trousers.

White shirt with collar.

Leather boots, leather breastplate and leather bands wrapped around the forehead.

That's all.

From the side of the Goriola Empire, the blurring is rising.

Killy shuts her mouth and looks at Chantillion with her harsh eyes.

The two finished choosing their weapons and waited for a signal bell about their position.

The referee sent a signal, and, uh, the bell rang.

If that aftertaste disappears into the wind, they won't move.

Both of you, keep the sword in your right hand against your opponent.

There are five steps between them.

It's a distance you can't hit by wielding your sword.

And yet, it's as if they're in agreement with each other, and they're looking at each other.

I stretched out my arm so Killy could stick out the tip of his sword a little bit.

Chantillion bent his arm and moved his sword tip to the front of his left shoulder.

Chantillion moved to the right.

In a circular motion that does not go far or close.

Killy also moved to the right to fit this.

They both spin slowly to the right.

Chantillion disappeared.

I cut straight in.

The five-step distance disappeared in an instant.

The sword muscle from left to right is sharp enough to tear the air apart.

Killy turned her torso back and threw this away.

You have such a fast sword.

And that's not just evasive behavior.

My right leg is pulling back, while my left leg is left behind.

for the right foot, born by shifting the center of gravity back, to strike back immediately.

As Chantillion's sword passed in front of his chest, Killy exploded his right leg muscle by recoil.

I guess I was going to fight back as it was, but I couldn't do that.

Because the Chantillion sword that captured Killy's body flipped in the air and mowed Killy's right leg.

Who can predict a sword wielded at that speed, such as coming back immediately?

Killy's movements stopped for a moment.

Chantillion steps in even further.

Still, Killy waved her sword from left to right in a slight thrust to intercept Chantillion.

Shantillion, who jerked off the sword, pushed the sword against Killy's right side and stopped it perfectly.

If I hadn't stopped it, no matter how many bladed swords I pulled, I would have done a lot of damage to Killy.

The two deputy judges raised the yellow flag, confirming it, and then the presiding judge raised the yellow flag to pronounce it.

"One!

Lord Chantillion Greybuster. "

Unlike others, this division has one win at the referee's discretion.

The Parzam side cheered greatly.

The goriola side is quiet as frozen.

The two were in position again.

Standing relative to Killy, Chantillion looks small and skinny.

Faces exposed without thanks are investigated like women.

The golden hair flowing on the back and the spicy white shirt with the strands are blown away.

Master Killy against is a mass of martial arts itself.

It looks as if the fighting is blowing up from all over your body.

A bell ringer struck a hammer on his right hand on a barrel bell that hung with his left hand.

Killy popped out without putting in her hair.

Quickly slash vertically and horizontally.

Three, no, four strikes in a row.

Chantillion backed directly behind him and sent this.

I'm so close to the tip of my sword that I think I'm hitting it from Baldo's position.

At the next moment, Chantillion, who sent the attack, went out to fight back.

expose them to four successive attacks.

Killy stepped back and threw this away with minimal movement.

Killy showed God's speed foot judgment.

To the left, and to that much speed of moving to the right, I almost lost sight of myself for a moment.

It will be all the more so at close distances because we are going to lose sight of the movement at such a distance.

Killy launched a double left and right strike.

Even though it didn't work, Bardo thought.

Bardo's battle whispered that he should have stepped in here and just bet on a blow.

Chantillion, who flaunted Killy's impatient steps, attacked the opponent's nostalgia in reverse.

What I let go was a triple left and right strike.

That velocity is much faster than a quadruple hit just now.

The attack wasn't as fast as it was earlier.

Even Killy, who had fired until the second shot, was there for the last slaughter.

I did capture Killy's chest, Chantillion's third blow.

Killy jumped back and the two stopped moving for a while.

Killy's chest is slashed wide from left to right.

The leather clothes are torn, and the chains and tears beneath them are torn, and the wounds reach the flesh, as can be seen from the position of the bald.

I didn't know a bladed sword would make it this far.

from a vagrant knight who is a master,

"In a battle between sword masters, blades and blades fuse, not much"

taught.

I just found out that it meant so much horrible.

Nevertheless, it is not easy to step deeply into the pocket of a samurai with long practicing backs and winning arms, no matter how confident you are in moves and speeds.

A young man named Chantillion Graybuster has courage when he is king of beasts.

Chantillion does not move with his sword.

Do you want Killy to fight back in full, and take it and stand?

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Killy breathed up and shook her sword high.

Let them cut the meat and break the bones.

Strike enemies with precision that takes a blow, not a move.

That's not the sword of the game anymore, it's the sword of the duel of your life.

A desperate blow struck Chantillion from the top.

Chantillion drew his sword to the left to make some moves, as if to echo that breath.

interrupted the movement and moved quickly to the left, striking Killy's right arm with a sword.

Rigid shots disturbed the track blurred Chantillion's right shoulder, but this was also deflected by an exquisite cut.

Killy took off her sword.

Its right wrist is bent at an unlikely angle.

"There's a battle!

Lord Chantillion Greybuster. "

Hearing the judgment, Killy picked up the sword with her left hand.

The two men returned to their first positions, each other, then to the presiding judge, finally thanking the organizers for their seats, and pulling them up to their own armies.

After Killy walked, the blood traces continued, dotted.

The ambulance rushed over, but Killy apologized for the allowance and went straight outside the arena.

Two light bottles, Chantillion took, but it seemed to Bardo, as if the two were not so far apart in strength.

On the contrary, if he hadn't been hit in the foot first, Killy might have flirted with Chantillion using her experience.

The difference between Killy, who tried to see how the opponent was doing, and Chantillion, who went on a full-fledged offense from the start, split the win or loss.

A silly big laugh echoed in a quiet arena.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Oh, my God, I'm surprised!

I thought it would put up a hell of a blush, but that's better. Did you prepare something more drastic?

It's painful.

Very painful.

If you're going to fight him like that, you must have rushed all the way from the north end!

Whoa, whoa, whoa. "

The giant barked loudly when the big red bear arrived to the other side of the arena.

Is that Gassara Eudiel, General of the North Expedition?

It's a good voice.

Being able to speak up to many allies in a turmoil is one of the essential qualities of a general.

A man who smells like polished in action, Bardo thought.

4.

The second game was won by Gassara Eudiel of the Goriola Empire.

Game three, this was also won by Magistra Guerri of the Goriola Empire.

Finally, it is the fourth game.

Doriatesa's opponent is a young man named Benna Termo.

Today Doria Tessa is wearing leather armor.

However, there appears to be metal reinforcement in the chest area.

The helmet is a shaped object that covers other than the eyes and mouth, and this also looks reinforced.

Unlike metallic all-body armor, it reveals how feminine you look.

From behind the helmet, chestnut hair spills out saggily.

When the call took place and Doriatessa advanced, a considerable amount of bragging rose from the Parzam side.

I know she's a woman when I hear her name, and she seems surprised.

Benna Termo said something to the referee, but the referee shook his head.

I'm choosing a weapon.

There are only two kinds of fine swords.

Same length, different sword thickness.

The two were relative and the bell rang.

Benna waved her sword down directly from the front.

That sounds like a pretty fast and powerful blow.

Doriatessa stepped forcefully in her right foot and jumped forward, launching the slaughter of a spike from left to right.

The next moment.

Doriatessa's sword was poked at her opponent's neck.

From the side of the kingdom of Parzam there was a euphoria, but from the side of the Goriola Empire there was a cheer.

"One!

Lord Doriatessa Farren. "

The blue flag of the two deputies and the referee rose, and the first battle came early.

The bell rang again and the second one began.

Benna Termo showed a fiery onslaught.

You're trying to intimidate your opponent with roughness, not moves, but that only works for weak-minded enemies.

Doria Tessa broke through all the attacks.

Eventually, Benna Termo's movements stopped for a moment tired of the attack.

Poking through that gap, Doriatessa's sword was poked at the opponent's neck.

"There's a battle!

Lord Doriatessa Farren. "

From the Goriola side cheered better than earlier.

The Parzam side is bluffing.

"Wow, that's terrible"

And Jurchaga said, so I asked him what was terrible.

"No, because.

That's terrible, that way of saying it.

How dare you let a woman out.

There's no way I can deal with them properly.

Let's protest and call it off, or something. "

If the distance is so far apart, I don't know what I'm talking about.

Julchaga's ears may be referred to as specially made.

Even though it's a small round ear.

But it's funny that there's no way you can deal with them properly.

Benna Termo said she was just seriously attacking herself.

It's not the line to say after losing.

An attendant, an officer of the Knights of the Borders, approached him and said something, quieting a group.
