138Woe Roman Dmitry's people (2)
6 people representing Roman.
They each had their own reputation..
Chris and Kevin were famous around the Northeast..
Chris was called Dmitri's genius swordsman even before he was active on the battlefield, and he showed great performance like Kevin in the great warrior battle with Barko..
The Flash of Cairo and the Being Called the Demon.
Since many people saw their power in action, people hoped to avoid competition with the two as much as possible..
Volkan and Pukki.
They overwhelmed people with their origins and appearance..
The fact that he was a war mercenary meant that it was not an easy experience, and his physical appearance, which was one head taller than others, made the people who watched him tremble with fear..
Although they are less reputable than the previous two characters, people who encountered them in person had no choice but to avoid their gaze without realizing it..
against them.
McBurney and Henderson.
They were both so shabby.
McBurney may have once been a great warrior, but he has now proven that he has no sleeves..
One-armed prosecutor. No explanation needed.
I don't know what kind of story McBurney had, but based on common sense, I decided that McBurney, who is one-armed, would be an easier opponent..
And Henderson.
In short, it was the weakest..
The basis for the judgment came from a rumor.
“Henderson appears to represent Roman Dmitry? Could it be that Henderson is Lawrence's Henderson? Nonsense! As far as I know, Henderson is just an ordinary farmer who can't even swing a sword properly. I heard a rumor that he trains hard while following Roman Dmitry, but how can a guy who was born a farmer participate in a swordsmanship competition??”
from commoner.
Also a farmer.
People's eyes turned to Henderson..
Even though he made great progress, he was a person whose starting line was significantly behind..
Like Henderson, Kevin did not come from a great background, but his impact in the Battle of Daejeon was so strong that no one doubted his skills..
Henderson was different from Kevin.
There were many people I knew from my days as a farmer, and they all said that Henderson was nothing but a coward..
in the first exam.
Henderson almost peed himself as he faced the bow..
Since this was the Henderson that people knew at that time, people argued that Henderson was the weakest..
Is that why?.
On the day of the competition.
The men in Henderson's group clenched their fists..
“Yes!”
“This is it!”
“heaven helps me!”
they were all sure.
The weakest group.
The winner here is you..
And that thought was no different from the knight assigned to be Henderson's first-round opponent..
* * *
“5Joe's first round match, Henderson vs. Taylor.”
Henderson and Taylor.
People's attention was focused.
Just by seeing her come up on stage, people were naturally confident that Taylor would win..
‘Come from the beginning, you’re a prosecutor..’
‘It's over.’
‘As Henderson, he can't beat Taylor..’
taylor.
He was a wandering prosecutor from Lawrence..
Having once lived in Lawrence, he immediately recognized Henderson's face..
“long time no see.”
“……Taylor?”
“The last time we met was during the busy farming season, when I helped out and took care of him for a while. You, who didn't even look at the sword back then, appear before me as a swordsman. You really don't know life. Even though we wander the world and experience many things, human life always gives us new shocks..”
Taylor laughed..
past relationship.
The relationship between the two wasn't bad.
Taylor knew that Henderson was a good person, so she spoke in a low voice so no one could hear..
“Henderson. Considering my relationship with you, I will give you a chance to give up the competition. As you know, I achieved special enlightenment and reached the level of two stars. It means you're not at a level you can deal with. I plan to prove myself and gain fame through this competition. In order to do that, you have to show a clear impact in every game, but if you insist on fighting me, I can't stand it. We're not meeting each other for the first time, we're meeting each other now, so there's no reason for one side to bleed over a pointless fight.?”
It is not a hasty judgment..
1years ago and today.
There is a limit to time.
No matter how quickly he progressed, Taylor knew Henderson wouldn't even reach his toes..
everyone here.
Everyone looked down on Henderson..
Henderson was the weakest in a world of tough men, and everyone wanted to eat him to rise to the top..
“I know what you mean..”
chuck.
picked up the sword.
Henderson looked at Taylor with a kind smile..
“I know how you remember me. So please, do your best. The moment you show me even the slightest mercy, I will not miss the opportunity to take you down..”
sharp eyes.
It was different from before..
Taylor showed a surprised expression and raised his sword as if he had no choice..
“I hope you don't regret it.”
That moment.
flutter.
“start!”
The referee announced the start of the confrontation..
* * *
A battle between a commoner and an aura swordsman.
There are pictures that people imagined.
I thought Prosecutor Ora would push for it unilaterally, but what happened was completely different from what I expected..
sudden.
crackling.
The first attack was Henderson..
Henderson quickly kicked the ground and immediately attacked Taylor, who still showed intent to probe..
Kaang!
Kakakakang!
sword and sword collide.
Taylor looked surprised at the strength that was stronger than expected, and Henderson attempted a follow-up attack following the first attack..
Like perfectly aligned gears. Henderson's combo attack was so smooth..
No matter how the opponent blocked, he immediately attacked the difficult area, and Taylor took a breath from the storm of attacks..
‘What is this?!’
It was unexpected.
Henderson's swordsmanship.
We have a perfect system.
Since he was a farmer, I thought he would just imitate half-heartedly, but there were no loopholes in Henderson's linked attack..
‘The person I was a year ago and the person I am now are different..’
Pass the enlisted examination.
Henderson had a hellish day every day..
Among those who passed Roman's test, there were many talented people, and from the beginning, they had skills that were embarrassing to even compare to Henderson..
I was especially surprised to see Kevin..
I felt pure admiration when a boy one head shorter than me pushed his opponent with truly overwhelming force..
behindhand.
I saw my own reality.
Henderson was too far behind compared to others to solve everything simply with will alone..
‘After talking with Chris, I decided that I would somehow become a person worthy of my master. I'm definitely not born with that much talent. Unlike other people who manifest aura quickly, I had a lot of trouble from feeling the mana to manifesting it. A being who always follows others to the end. That's just me, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm improving.’
Henderson was a turtle.
slowly but surely.
Slowly towards the right path.
Henderson built his own efforts.
Taylor may remember himself from a year ago, but the swordsmanship he uses now contains the blood and sweat of the past..
crackling.
Kagaga River!
pushed hard.
Sura Sword Technique.
In a swordsmanship containing 108 techniques for every situation, Taylor could not go beyond what was expected..
I felt embarrassed at first. As time passed, I was filled with astonishment..
I knew that the swordsmanship system was at a level that could not be ignored, considering that Henderson was simply continuing the momentum of the first attack..
people watching from afar.
They were also embarrassed.
this wasn't.
At least Henderson had to show they were comfortable with it..
hook!
Taylor fired back..
Henderson didn't step back and instead threw the attack aside as if he had expected it..
Palak.
the wind blew.
If he had been hit by the attack, the injury would have been serious, but Henderson's gaze did not stray from Taylor..
‘I won't break down at this level.’
training so far.
The opponents were Kevin, Chris, and even Roman Dmitry..
Dealing with monsters he had never experienced before, Henderson's reaction speed exceeded the standards of an ordinary person..
There is no denying the fact that some of those who still follow Roman lack talent..
However, he worked tirelessly and was proudly named as one of the top 6 people representing this competition..
crackling.
caught a loophole.
In an instant.
dug into the space.
He expanded Taylor's posture by using imaginary numbers and attempted to attack from an angle that the opponent could not block..
‘finished.’
There was no way to stop it.
Taylor's posture has collapsed.
He was stained with embarrassment and gritted his teeth..
“Holy fuck.”
Kwarung.
Crumbling.
manifestation of aura.
In a situation that could not be avoided by common sense, Taylor demonstrated power beyond common sense..
* * *
It was a momentary decision.
Taylor, who evaded the attack by exploding the mana of both legs, blushed with unbearable emotion..
‘I didn't want to use mana.’
The opponent is from a commoner background..
A being who has never felt mana.
I wanted to defeat Henderson purely with swordsmanship, but when I actually competed with him, I realized that it was impossible..
I couldn't help it.
We can't lose like this, right?.
He escaped danger with an explosion of aura and struck forward, manifesting aura through his sword..
Hwaak.
Crumbling.
“I'm sorry, but I'll just end this.!”
1aura of castle.
The game was decided.
Even if Henderson had improved dramatically, there was no way to stop Aura..
however.
Crumbling.
The same aura appeared on Henderson's sword..
The power wasn't great.
Although it was still at a weak level, he, who was just a commoner, eventually reached the point where his aura was manifested..
this didn't make sense.
Just by looking at Taylor's wide-eyed reaction, you could see just how unconventional Henderson's progress was..
But the people gathered here didn't know.
Henderson's progress is not as fast as others..
People who began to accept mana through Sura meditation succeeded in manifesting auras one by one, starting with those with basic skills such as Volkan and Puki..
yet.
Henderson's aura was weak.
Henderson knew this well, and deliberately deflected the opponent's aura and knocked the attack away..
Pak-
Both arms flew out..
Taylor defenseless.
In an unexpected development for everyone, Henderson recalled what Chris said the day before the competition..
“Henderson. When you came to me saying you would give up everything, you were just a weak human being. You were the type of person who gave up without even trying properly, and if you had given up everything at that time, your life would not have changed. Not just as a prosecutor. No matter what trials you face, you will always be a loser. Last month. You have a winning percentage of the top 6 players. Unlike other overwhelmingly talented players, you always seemed to struggle, but while others accepted defeat, you somehow dreamed of one more victory. this is the result.”
laughed.
Chris looked at Henderson with warm eyes..
“You are a person qualified to represent your lord. I guarantee that.”
and now.
Henderson believed in himself..
I still don't think I'm great, but regardless, I don't doubt my ability to win..
Times when I worked hard.
The existence of a commoner began to change little by little..
People still remember him as a commoner, but Henderson experienced a world that others could not imagine..
Taylor fights back.
whether taylor avoids.
Or block it with a sword.
The whole situation was in the experience.
Taylor raised his sword to block, but Henderson hit his body and broke his opponent's stance..
And then.
chuck.
I put a sword to my throat..
Taylor acknowledged the reality with a pale face as the game was over..
“……I lost.”
5Group 1st round.
It was a different result than everyone expected..
Henderson's Victory.
People who were watching, laughing and talking, were left speechless by the shocking results..
