137Woe Roman Dmitry's people (1)
The day before the competition.
Dmitry was crowded with people..
Roman held a competition for the benefit of the northeastern region, but it was not their only interest..
“You also attend the competition?”
“of course! Do you know how quickly I came back when I heard there was a competition with a whopping 100 gold at stake? I would be sad if I were to fall into a situation like this. Just take a look. I'll show you how scary the mercenary's sword honed on the front lines is..”
“They call me a mercenary. Please get caught by Chris Cho and get destroyed from the start.!”
“This bastard!”
People also heard rumors.
chris.
He was an opponent that could not be dared to approach..
He has a record of defeating a 3-star swordsman in the Battle of Daejeon Temple, and according to rumors, the sword was so fast that it was impossible to properly check it with the naked eye..
6If you happen to meet Chris in a group of dogs. In fact, it was safe to say that he was eliminated..
Fortunately, in order to prepare for bloodshed, the use of auras was limited to 1 star, but I couldn't imagine beating Chris simply due to differences in swordsmanship..
“Kevin needs to be careful too. He's just a demon. In competitions with aura restrictions, you might be more dangerous than Chris..”
“Have you ever seen Volkan and Pukki in real life? It's absolutely no joke. To briefly explain the point of this competition, you only need to avoid four of Roman Dmitry's people. Chris, Kevin, Volkan, Pookie. If you try to win against them, I guarantee you you'll end up breaking an arm..”
4person's name.
was an object of caution.
By collecting past rumors, people remembered who to avoid..
And yet.
The reason so many people expressed their intention to participate in the competition was because if they could avoid just those four, their chances of winning would increase dramatically..
It was truly a win-win opportunity..
The remaining two groups were definitely a fight between ragtag groups, so people prayed to heaven that they would fall into that group..
“ah please.”
“Please let me get caught in the honey tide..”
next day.
The group that people have been waiting for has been announced.
It was such a result that the joy and sorrow were sharply divided..
* * *
Northeast Association.
Even among them, joy and sadness were divided..
One nobleman reacted darkly to the name Chris written in plain text..
“……Why do I have to deal with Chris?.”
last month.
They ran in all directions..
A skilled person who can use at least 1 star aura, but can overwhelm the opponent with swordsmanship..
In addition, since they had to meet the condition of being from the northeastern region, most of them eventually decided to send a strong person from the family as their representative..
Baron Rollo, chosen as Chris' opponent, was no different. I had already said that I would send out a two-star prosecutor who represented the family, but unfortunately, Chris was chosen as the opponent..
It was dark.
He is a monster who defeated a 3-star swordsman with only swordsmanship..
The outcome was obvious, but he didn't want to send his beloved prosecutor to a dangerous place..
“There's no need to despair so much.”
“you're right. Aren't the swordsmen of Baron Rollo's family also outstanding? Of course, this does not mean that Chris is an easy opponent, but there is no need to give up and lose motivation already. In the end, we are all the same. You cannot predict the future in a confrontation, so you must not give up until the end..”
back nobility.
They were nobles who avoided surveillance..
In particular, Viscount Konrad could not hide his joy at finding the most ideal match for him..
‘McBurney. I never thought I would send that idiot out..’
For this competition, he also researched Roman's people..
It was definitely amazing.
Although he was only the eldest son of the Baron family, Roman had many talented people, including Chris..
So, as a joke, I once said that I wish McBurney, who was brought in this time, would be assigned as an opponent..
Although he was a skilled warrior who served as a centurion on the Western Front, he did not expect to lose against an idiot who had lost an arm. It's not just a matter of not having a body..
Losing the main arm would have upset the balance, which was very fatal in the battle between the swordsmen..
however.
McBurney appeared as Roman's representative..
Upon hearing that he had been assigned to his group, Viscount Conrad reacted more kindly than ever..
“everyone. This competition is not about each individual. If anyone emerges as a winner in the competition, the Northeast Association can proudly assert our rights against Dmitry. So, please keep your pride to a minimum. If we show the courage to not back down even against Chris, I will definitely win the championship title and lead the Northeast Association to victory..”
“you're right.”
A nobleman defending Conrad.
He was included in Henderson's group.
At the thought of dealing with a small child whose name I didn't know, my happiness circuit couldn't help but work hard..
at last.
Everyone nodded..
In fact, with the exception of Chris, there is no chance of winning at all..
“We have been fully prepared for the past month. Roman Dmitry may have decided that he needed time to prepare, but that time actually turned out to be useful for us. In fact, it is a certainty that McBurney and Henderson will win the group. So let's do our best to win as many wins as possible. If we win half of the six groups, wouldn't the status of the Northeast Association be improved??”
“That's right.”
“Let's smash it to pieces..”
People seething with enthusiasm.
The look in his eyes changed..
Everyone shouted in unison, except for Baron Rollo, who was dealing with Chris..
“Overthrow Dmitry!”
“Overthrow Dmitry!”
this competition.
It was a golden opportunity.
After the competition ends, Dmitry will no longer be able to raise his voice as a powerful figure in the northeast..
* * *
Did you say that if you're unlucky, you'll break your nose if you fall backwards?.
Baron Rollo was in despair..
It's unfair that Chris was put in the group, but it's only because we confirmed that Chris was chosen as the first opponent..
‘But I can't abstain…….’
The moment you throw down the white flag.
The Northeast Alliance will ignore Baron Rollo..
In fact, as a 2-star swordsman who can be considered the family's strength, he hoped that he would finish the competition safely without any injuries..
In my heart, I wanted to abstain..
However, knowing that this was not possible, Baron Rollo suppressed his devastated feelings and warned the family knight..
“Max. Keep this in mind. There is absolutely no need to overdo it against Chris. Our goal is not to tarnish the name of the ‘Northeast Association’, but there is no reason to get in trouble for trying to win..”
“My lord. please trust me.”
“what does that mean!”
“From the moment I decided to participate in the competition, I worked hard to win the competition. I don't know that Chris is a great prosecutor. I heard from my colleagues how great a swordsman Chris showed in the Battle of Daejeon, but he is a 2-star swordsman like me. There is no reason for me to be scared and back down. I've been fully prepared for the possibility of meeting Chris, so please trust me just this once..”
max.
he opened his chest.
Looking at Baron Rollo, he showed me what a knight's spirit is..
“max……!”
I was thrilled.
This dashing and handsome man is his knight..
After hearing Max's story, I got the feeling that Chris might not be invincible..
Baron Rollo said.
“i get it. Do your best on stage. Do your best against Chris, and if you feel that it is truly impossible, then abstain without hesitation. I, too, will surrender the white flag if I think you are in danger..”
“All right.”
It was a crucible of emotion..
A loyal subject and a master who cherishes him.
It reminded me of a miracle drama..
If Max defeated Chris, it would truly be a golden opportunity to become a star in the northeast..
‘This is your chance. It's about impressing your lord and the crowd. Phew, Max. You can do it.’
went up to the stage.
1round.
believed in myself.
like that.
puck!
“Wow!”
in just 3 seconds.
Max fell backwards, spattering blood..
* * *
chris.
His appearance was different from usual..
Like a sharply forged sword, he showed fierce eyes as soon as his opponent entered the stage..
‘I prove myself in this competition.’
Ordinary victories are not enough.
overwhelming victory.
I didn't just hope for one victory, I also planned to completely defeat all opponents starting from the first round..
Haven't you trained relentlessly for that kind of result?.
During the days when he trained with Roman Dmitry in mind, Chris was confident that he could win no matter who his opponent was..
Confidence that comes from confidence.
The result was as expected.
flutter.
“start!”
signal is lost.
1candle.
Max kicked the ground..
He closed the distance in an instant and created a one-star aura as if he would not give Chris a chance to react..
Crumbling.
2candle.
swung the sword.
It was fast.
I believed that even Chris would not be able to react to the surprise attack..
3candle.
a fleeting moment.
Chris burrowed into the rushing aura..
Compared to Roman's aura, it was not a threatening attack at all, and Chris blocked all the auras that were slashing around him with his heart of steel..
The other person's expression was stained with embarrassment..
Although I had calculated to dodge, I did not expect that he would block all of his attacks and move forward like this..
like that.
Chris's sword exploded..
Before he had time to escape, Max's nose was crushed and he was vomiting blood..
puck!
“Wow!”
It was an overwhelming result.
Even though the opponent was a 2-star swordsman and not an idiot, Chris decided the match in a split second..
flutter.
“This round has ended. Chris from the Dmitry family won, confirming his advancement to this round.!”
Baron Rollo.
he was astonished.
Because I had false hopes, I couldn't help but be surprised when I saw the wall of reality..
‘Nonsense. There is this much difference?!’
That was just the beginning.
The competition proceeded one after another, and as soon as it started, screams were heard from all directions..
“Kevin from the Dmitry family won, confirming his advancement to this round.!”
“Volkan of the Dmitry family…….”
“Puki of the Dmitry family…….”
all four matches.
10Didn't last more than a second.
People who clearly showed a confident spirit like Max collapsed without being able to do anything when faced with the reality..
People looked perplexed.
I thought Roman Dmitry's people would be strong, but I never expected they would show such overwhelming force from the beginning..
“and.”
“Is this the class of the Dmitry family?.”
“The rumors coming from the southern front were not false. Dmitry's prosecutors are on a whole different level..”
My heart sank..
Only then did I admit it..
As initially feared, winning in a group containing cautionary subjects was virtually impossible..
then.
Their interests were clear.
‘McBurney and Henderson.’
Asshole and unknown participant.
People believed that the group they were in was the group with hope to beat Dmitry and win the championship..
timely.
People's attention was focused on Henderson's appearance on stage..
