Arnold's body technique is so brilliant that cheers and applause resound. However, the blue eyes like the sea do not give any attention to such a thing.
"That's enough."
(Ah......)
Notice that the sound of the arrow cutting the wind stops.
Several spectators saw the Kingsguard being captured. However, the murderous aura that dotted the theater did not all disappear.
(--Come)
They've exhausted the arrows, and now they're going to the stage.
With a tingling tension, Leechee regained control of the sword. Arnold, on the other hand, lowers his gaze.
Arnold put his hand on the sword handle around his waist and gently grabbed it.
Then, she began to pull the sword out of its sheath, slowly sliding the blade.
――……
Leechee unexpectedly took a breath to the beauty of Arnold's work.
The black blade that emerges from the sheath reflects the lighting of the stage and shines.
The light shone on Arnold's face, accentuating his long eyelashes. As the blade slipped into the sheath, it was pure and clean.
His posture is straight and his center of gravity is not blurred at all. No matter where you're slashed, you'll be able to react easily.
Still, there was no extra strength in it. Even though I'm so lazy, my slowness makes me feel dangerously colourful.
Just pulling out the sword was too much to attract the eyes of the surroundings.
The spectators who thought this was an act were also stolen from the stage by Arnold, who could not even speak out.
…………
When the blade slips on the sheath, it stops sounding as beautiful as a bell.
As Arnold slowly blinked and pulled his tip out of the sheath, the petals under his feet rose.
(...... Pretty......)
Although you will be fascinated, your consciousness will change quickly.
A dozen or so enemies hiding in their robes came to the stage at once. Leechee stood with her sword and watched the enemy move.
(We have the leadership! I'm not alarmed. the formation of Lord Arnold after fully understanding the strength of the other side.....)
The enemy is stronger than the Arnolds. With that in mind, Arnold takes only one step forward.
Leechee sees Arnold behind her. As the men in the robe came up, Leechee tried to line up with Arnold.
But that's when it happened.
――――……
(Huh!?)
Arnold shakes the tip as if to make it slip.
I slashed straight to the side. That alone destroyed the five who were at the forefront.
It was not all spectators who saw what had happened.
Even Leechee, who was watching right next to her, didn't know much about the speed. I have an illusion that I didn't even make a sound, even though I knew it wasn't possible.
Only the petals that rose on the stage were proof that Arnold had wielded his sword.
(Really, what a skillful sword technique...!!)
Leechee unexpectedly shrugs. If you think about it, this is the first time you've ever seen Arnold crossing a sword directly with an enemy as an ally.
The enemies that followed look at their fallen allies and change their formation. Arnold doesn't even move his eyebrows when he responds to them without agitation.
……
First, play the enemy's first shot.
It seems that these five enemies chose a method of warfare in which Arnold was slaughtered by one of them, and while he was receiving it, his mouth moved separately.
But such a plan was pointless.
Arnold parries his enemy's sword, covering Leechee's back. I crossed my sword with one hand and flipped it behind my back.
"Shit...!"
Immediately after that, a large enemy attacked.
Arnold's expression did not change here, and he immediately lowered the center of gravity. Playing his sword with a dull sound, he thought he was vibrant, and stepped into the distance between the enemies.
This time, it was a powerful sword sentence, like turning my shoulder blades. Immediately afterwards, he swings up his legs and puts a heavy kick into the enemy's belly.
……
"Grrrr!!"
A cloudy, screaming enemy sank dumbly onto the stage. In just a few seconds, about ten enemies will sink.
(I can't move this many people in an instant...!)
Until the enemy's plan was disturbed, it was only a few hands. Arnold, who had responded to everything, had barely moved from his initial position.
"Hey...! What did that beautiful male actor do just now...?!"
"Shhhhhh! Just shut up, we're in the middle of a show."
The spectators don't know that this is a real battle, and they are exhilarated.
Nevertheless the enemies were not finished with these five. A newcomer emerges from all over the seats and gathers on the stage.
Will it be about fifteen people this time? I think I'm still in the theater because I didn't dare to regulate the time of entry in order to seize all the agents.
It was slashed from the left and right sides at the same time, but Arnold only dealt with the right side.
Arnold didn't respond to the left because he couldn't.
……
Leechee's sword captured the attacking enemy's sword.
(Don't stop head-on, just stay like this...!)
Use the angle of the blade to strike the enemy. With my strength, I've accumulated a way of fighting against the opponent's strength from my past life.
Leechee dances around and applies rotational force to the enemy sword. Then, due to the structure of his fingers, the enemy was unable to apply force, and he took down the sword that was supposed to be gripping him hard.
"What...!?"
Aim at the gap and cut into the enemy's abdomen very shallowly.
Leechee and Arnold's swords were filled with her concocted medicine.
It's the same numbing medicine used by bandits on their way from the Hermiti kingdom.
Leechee breathed briefly as she saw the enemy fall.
……
At the same time, Arnold glances at us.
(...... If you were as good as Lord Arnold, you wouldn't need my strength. I'm sure Lord Arnold would scold me if I stayed back. But after all.....)
I want to fight alongside Arnold.
Arnold called me a name, as if I had thought of it.
"Leeche"
"Ugh!"
It was a small voice that only Leechee could hear beside her.
However, he kept his gaze on the enemy and spoke clearly.
"--You 're free to go."
……
Leechee breathed slightly.
"... yes!"
I answered and gripped the handle of the sword.
And he stood to the left of Arnold.
I did not choose you unintentionally, but Arnold's only weakness is the one with the neck wound.
――……
Did Arnold see why Leechee chose the left?
After being a little surprised, she smiled and found out that she had deposited it with Leechee.
(...... Lord Arnold is not just trying to spoil and protect me.)
Allowed to stand next to Arnold, Leechee gathered strength.
(You can trust me and keep it......)
I gnawed at it with all my heart, and I was trembling with joy.
