Chapter 877 – 877. Recognition of Knights (3)
Kaaang!
Little by little, Cha Han-seong’s opposition began to face Riod.
Although it is said that Riod is not doing his best, it is undoubtedly the ‘growth’ of Hansung Cha.
‘So fast?’
What was surprising was that the timing was faster than he expected.
However, the unexpected situation was an unexpected situation that was not worse than expected.
Cha Hanseong, whose eyes became sharper, thought as he slashed Riod’s sword.
‘Let’s stay calm.’
The shaking of the sword that had been swung under the agitation and evil gradually stopped.
Cha Hanseong was slowly regaining his reason.
The time when he felt annoyed at the incomprehensible absurdity of why he had to fight with Rio de had passed.
Thinking about that, it became more important to figure out why Leo was swinging his sword at him and what he was asking of him.
Lyod wanted to see.
In order to confirm his own growth as a swordsman and his current position, he presses and attacks himself.
If so, he has only one action to take.
As his swordsman, showing all of himself.
But is that really all there is to it?
If you show yourself now, will Riod be satisfied?
That can’t be the case, thought Cha Han-seong.
‘The image of a prosecutor I want to show.’
Cha Han-seong, the best knight who has won the honor and title of being the strongest in the kingdom and continent he is chasing.
Riod’s appearance was the ideal of a knight he was pursuing.
Cha Han-sung wanted to show himself as he learned from him and grew up.
Kaaang!
“… !”
Lyod shuddered for a moment.
This is because Cha Han-seong’s fierce swordsmanship, which cuts off his own sword, suddenly changed without realizing it.
It was similar to Riod’s own sword attack.
Not only his physique, but also the power that came from his physique and the sword attack was lacking compared to Riod.
However, from the motion of swinging the sword, the speed and timing, and the flow itself, as a swordsman, it was a neat blow that I could only admire.
And it was also his own swordsmanship that he had repeatedly honed and polished over a long period of time.
“Under.”
A young man more than twenty years younger than himself, desperately trying to follow in his footsteps, that fragment caught his eyes.
He laughed involuntarily.
Is it joy or joy?
He couldn’t quite define what it was, but Riod was finally feeling a sense of elation.
Kaaang!
As the two swords collided, a clear metallic sound filled the training ground.
Erin, Juhong, and Eira, who were watching the stone match, shook their shoulders at the intense sound of metal that penetrated their ears and hit their eardrums.
“Oh my god…”
Ayra couldn’t close her open mouth as if she was startled.
“Hanseong… Were you that strong? ?”
She knew that she was strong, but now she is fighting on an equal footing against Riod.
Even if it is said that Riod is not giving his best, the fact that he was able to fight like that against the Knights Commander Riod in Dalian is almost non-existent in the Artia Knights, except for Cain, the vice-captain.
Is it possible to grow to that level just by having a level of physical ability comparable to that of a vampire?
“It’s not just because the body specs have gone up.”
“Yes?”
“Because that person’s real value is the ability to chase the other person.”
“Are you following me?”
“Cha Han-seong has good eyes. And he understands what he has to do to keep up with it.”
It is not the kind of ‘understanding’ that can logically grasp the structure or explain it to others.
Instinctive understanding of how and in which direction to move to catch up with the technology and state.
It was not a logical understanding that could be understood by someone explaining it, but an instinctive understanding that one could see, hear, feel, and understand with one’s own body.
“Sometimes there are people like that. The kind of people who learn and learn it on their own, even though no one told them to.”
“Umm, like Miho?”
“Yes.”
The first thing Erin thought of after hearing Eunhyeon’s explanation was a nine-tailed fox.
The nine-tailed fox really belonged to the category of genius when it came to manipulating magical powers.
A being that preserves and enhances one’s energy in the course of training that lasted for nearly a thousand years.
The senses awakened in that eternity of time are not something that can be explained to others.
Geniuses who can use it skillfully but cannot pass it on or share it with others.
“Um, right. I think Master is like that too?”
“What…”
Although he denied it, Siete also fell into that category.
However, it was purely because Eun-hyeon, who had to be taught by her, belonged to the side with no talent.
“Master’s teachings are too difficult. I don’t even know what you said. Hyun-yi’s words are so easy to explain that it really sticks in my ears.”
Even after hearing Siete’s explanation, I couldn’t understand it in my head.
The ambiguous teachings that did not materialize and seemed to catch floating clouds did not convey anything to Erin.
Gumiho and Siete are similar in that respect.
It’s exactly the same as saying bitterly why you don’t understand this.
“What did I do?”
“Huh… !?”
Erin swallowed her breath at the chill in her voice.
As soon as she heard her familiar voice, she turned her trembling head to look behind her.
Eun-Hyeon, Ju-Hong, and Eira all looked surprised when they all looked back.
“You’ve grown a lot. Very, the son-in-law knows how to chew on the master.”
“…”
Siete laughed and stroked Eunhyun’s hair.
Looking at his demeanor, which was equally hardened, she said.
“How can you chew on the teacher from behind if you have taught the disciple so much?”
He smiles broadly and speaks gently, but the content itself is bloody.
In short.
‘Aren’t they managing properly?’
In response to her reprimand, there was only one thing Eunhyeon could say.
“… Sorry.”
To bow one’s head and apologize.
“Hey, that’s it.”
When Eun-hyeon apologized, Siete immediately accepted the apology with a snort at her.
“Tongue, Hyuna… Sorry…”
It was a small grumpiness that he wanted to annoy Erin, who noticed Eunhyun with her pale complexion.
In fact, Siete didn’t hate Erin, who always behaved immaturely.
In any case, Erin was one of her wives who supported Eun-hyeon, who had died and could not take care of her, so that she would no longer be devastated.
She was the kind of kid who sometimes hated her a little, but didn’t hate her.
“Are you okay.”
She knew that Eunhyeon Toshie Te was only there to bully Erin, and that she had no particular intentions.
She smiled bitterly and comforted Erin, who was worried that she would not get scolded while holding on to her own collar.
“Ha, it’s so nice to see you pretending to be my wife.”
Eunhyeon listened to Siete’s sarcasm and hugged Erin, who was worried about her.
“Hi-Hi.”
Despite Erin Ishiete’s sarcasm, she laughed heartily in Eun-hyeon’s arms.
Maybe it was because she instinctively realized that she wouldn’t scold herself.
“By the way, Master. Why are you here?”
“I have been visiting often lately. There are many swordsmen training here.”
The knights belonging to the Artia Knights all had a high level of swordsmanship.
Of course, compared to Siete’s level, it was incomparable, but Siete’s one of the few hobbies was observing other people’s swords.
She recognized her talent and gave advice to knights who came to ask for her teaching.
Siete came naturally to his side.
When she looked at Ju-Hong right next to her, Ju-Hong realized the meaning of her glance and made room for her.
Even though her field is different, her martial spirit and attitude that I felt from her were such that I naturally paid her respect.
“Hyunah.”
“Yes. Master.”
“How do you see the two of them?”
“Leod’s sword is still clean and precise. On the other hand, Hansung Cha’s sword… It’s not comparable to Riod, but it’s getting more and more like Riod.”
At first, she was swayed by her improved physical abilities and was unable to use her full strength.
However, as she climbed farther and clashed swords with Riod and felt his sword strikes, she began to resemble him more and more.
“It’s a really amazing talent.”
Cha Han-sung’s talent was phenomenal.
The stronger the person who asks for and teaches learning, the stronger Cha Han-sung’s talent to pursue and make it his own is, in a sense, the crystallization of obsession and tenacity.
“Yes. But that’s not the answer I was hoping for.”
“Yes?”
“Aren’t you experiencing congestion lately?”
“… !”
Eunhyun shuddered as if she had been stabbed to the point.
Siete’s point became a sharp dagger and seemed to pierce his chest.
“… Hyuna?”
The first to notice Eunhyeon’s agitation was Erin, who was in his arms.
Siete, who confirmed his agitation and hit the mark, smiled and continued to look at Riode and Cha Han-seong as he spoke.
“Are you really not feeling anything?”
“…”
Eunhyun was worried.
In fact, he didn’t have any guesses at all, but he had no idea how to solve the problem himself.
The car he was thinking about, Riod and Cha Han-seong’s match, was running toward the end.
“Kuh, ugh… !”
The gap between the two, who had been happily engaged in sparring, began to widen.
He said he was chasing after him somehow, but even with his improved physical abilities, it was impossible to overwhelm Riod.
First, it was Cha Han-seong who started to exert himself by exhausting his physical and mental strength.
Eun-hyeon gradually sensed that it was time for her to step in and moved.
Kaaang!
I was pushed back by Riod’s sword attack, and I got in between him and Cha Han-seong, who was falling out.
“It’s over. Stop now.”
“…”
Liode, who was blocked by Eunhyeon’s sword and was unable to land an additional blow, looked at Eunhyeon blankly, and then withdrew his sword.
“Are you satisfied now?”
“… I do not know.”
Despite pushing Cha Han-seong to the point where he was almost dying, Riod didn’t seem to be satisfied.
“… Do you want more?”
“No. Why don’t we just stop here?”
A new voice invaded the training ground.
Everyone inside turned their heads toward the entrance to the training ground.
As expected, the first to speak was Eira, who was most surprised among them.
“Oh, Mother!”
“I heard about it from Illyana and her older sister, so I came to see it, but I didn’t expect it to be real.”
Theresia looked at Leo de with her wry smile.
Then, he slowly moved his steps towards the center of the training ground, exhausted all his energy, and spoke to Cha Han-seong, who was sitting on one knee.
“Sorry. Wasn’t your husband a bit harsh?”
“Oh, no…”
“It’s the first time. The very experience of sending her daughter to a man.”
“Oh, yes. That, uh… Yes.”
“It’s not because I hate you. Only… My husband was like this when he first married me. I probably had no choice but to express it this way.”
“Yes… ? What is that… ?”
Cha Hanseong made a puzzled expression.
“… I don’t think it was that bad compared to my time.”
Riod grumbled and expressed his dissatisfaction, but he couldn’t actively reveal it.
“So did my husband. My father had to go through a lot because of me. Because being a father with a daughter would be like that.”
“…”
“So, if you are going to marry Eira, the road will definitely not be easy. And yet… Do you want to continue your relationship with Eira?”
In response to Theresia’s question, Cha Han-seong expressed her mind, which had already been decided before, out of her mouth.
“… Yes. Senior, no. She likes Eira a lot. I want to be by her side and protect her forever!”
“Oh. That’s cool.”
