Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 159
What woke them up from a long sleep while listening to the sound of rain was the voice of a private soldier running around the mansion and screaming at the top of his voice as if announcing the end of the world..
"attack! Move towards the main building immediately! This is a real situation! It's an attack!"
Although he was a private soldier, it was an emergency situation, so the sight of him being called without an honorific title was an incredible event that no one living in the mansion had ever experienced..
Perhaps that was why the knights who were staying at the mansion caught the private soldiers running around with desperate expressions and instead of threatening them, they quickly put on their armor and ran towards the direction indicated by the privates..
The sight of five knights running in a line, and even employees equipped at a similar level heading to the same place was quite tense..
"Hmm. What kind of hot-blooded crazy people are going to rob a nobleman's mansion on a rainy day?."
Even in a situation where all the troops were frantically running around in a sudden emergency situation in the midst of heavy rain, the knight, who was especially slow and yawning while putting on his armor, came out of his quarters late, grabbed a random soldier and asked a question..
"hey. What's going on??"
"Hey, it's an enemy attack! The main gate was destroyed and the soldiers who had been dispatched to suppress it were literally slaughtered.!"
The driver, who read the young fear in the eyes of the soldier who gave a very detailed explanation as to whether he had seen the scene in person, felt his interest piqued in an instant..
It was not a reaction of caution upon seeing an ordinary attack, but the despair swirling in the soldier's eyes when he saw an opponent he could not defeat no matter what..
"Slaughter? How many people came?"
"Ha, there is only one person.."
"One word?"
The driver wasn't angry or dumbfounded. The noisy atmosphere, as if there was a war, explained too much for such an obvious reaction..
This is something fun that happened. The knight's intuition shouted so.
"Once this is sorted out, I'll have to gather the soldiers and start training them again. I should have said that first.!"
One person attacked the count's mansion in the middle of the capital, but how could they leave out such an important fact and just shout nonsense about an attack? As the feeling of sleep fled and the elation slowly built up, the knight left the soldiers behind and ran towards the main building of the mansion..
It was quite large for a count's mansion, so even though he used Aurors to strengthen his body and ran, the main building was still a bit far away. Thanks to this, his article had to get past the reactions that kept increasing his expectations to get there..
But what was most impressive was the command faintly heard from far away..
"article! Bring the knights! Soldier back off! can't win!"
"Ha, really. It makes people look forward to it. I'm coming! Everything goes out!!"
I couldn't even hear the sound of weapons clashing yet, but it seemed like the driver already knew who the opponent was..
As soon as I heard the ridiculous story of a one-man attack, the first thing that came to mind was a hot topic figure that was inflated like a huge monster through a mixture of truth and rumors..
So, this is someone I definitely wanted to see, but had no choice but to avoid. A person who was rumored to have killed the young lion of Rudra and even defeated a warrior..
Most knights and old men underestimated and looked down on the skills of young heroes, but the knight who was one of the young heroes never took all these rumors lightly and always waited..
And when he finally arrived at the main building, the driver firmly believed that God had rewarded him for his wait..
The hero of the rumor, who effortlessly broke up the joint attack of three knights who attempted it with perfect timing to the point where it could be said to have been simultaneous, cut off their heads one after the other, was there..
"Levien's guillotine. Eldmia Ega!"
"It's true that it's Eldmia Ega, but what's that nickname in front of it??"
Unlike the rough expression reminiscent of a street gangster, the disciplined body and posture are of a type that gangsters cannot imitate. The outward appearance of the auror was minimal, but that is already no criterion for judgment..
It must be judged that they reached this point by scattering countless swords, corpses, and destruction from the main gate to the main building of the mansion..
"I guess you don't really care about your gossip.?"
"There's so much interest. But strangely enough, it didn't reach my ears. Now I'm starting to wonder why I'm the only one who doesn't know."
Five knights and more than ten of their servants died..
Nevertheless, the knight felt joy at the sight of the enemy who was not even breathing..
Yes, sword fighting is best with people..
"Are you hitting hard? There was some bustle, but after you came, the surroundings became quiet for a moment.?"
Contrary to the knight's heightened emotions, Eldmia just tilted her head to the side with a face that seemed full of complaints..
"Oh, I don't like people getting in trouble when I fight.."
"But are you going to leave behind the bastard who destroyed the mansion like this? Were you the strongest here??"
The smile kept rising and it felt like the corners of his mouth were going to touch his ears, but the driver answered while maintaining his composure as best as he could..
"that's right. I am the strongest..."
And before he could speak, he noticed something strange and frowned and asked back..
"...Why is it in past tense??"
"Why are you asking the obvious in past tense?."
Eldmia, who showed a helpless reaction as if she was hearing all kinds of stupid questions, placed the blade she was holding between the upper and lower arms of her right arm..
For a moment, he wondered what was going on, but it was only after seeing his white clothes turn red as not a single drop of blood had been splattered on his way here that the driver understood the situation..
Oh, this is my first time seeing blood wiped away like that..
"Now I'm here."
Eldmia, who wiped the blood off her sword, answered with a smile as if it was completely natural..
I couldn't tell if that was confidence or provocation, but it was enough to make the article cheerful..
"ha ha ha! fun! Very fun! This is something to look forward to!"
"I'm not really looking forward to it, so let's finish it quickly and let's go. 아, 엔벨데 그 개새끼 위에 있니?"
"Haha!... Wouldn't it be so? why?"
"I tried to cut you off and go up, but you were on the first floor. It would be embarrassing if you were in the same situation.."
I could sense that he was sincere in his remark that he did not see himself as an enemy, and for a moment, my cheerful mood subsided. Just when I was about to say something in a sullen mood,,
"Let’s finish it quickly because we’re busy.."
Eldmia seemed to have no intention of considering his feelings and attacked him, instantly closing the distance without any warning..
"You're talented!"
It's double acceleration, so there's nothing like a surprise attack when there's a clear distance. But that was only true when there was a clear difference in skill..
If you have similar skills, you will have to move a little hastily in the end, but you can handle it well. It's faster to mix swords at close range anyway..
"Still, shouldn’t we make a full statement? You should at least know the name of the person who will kill you.?"
"Isn’t that why you know my name?."
Eldmia's speaking skills were more annoying than the standard attacks you see in textbooks. The knight, who was almost delayed in reacting as he thought for a moment about what his words meant, stuck out his tongue and tried to step back to increase the distance..
"Wow, you really have a way with words...."
However, Eldmia, who noticed the movement right away, did not give him a moment's time and clung to him again and swung his sword. Likewise, an attack that could be included in a textbook. He had seen countless textbook knights on the battlefield, but he had no choice but to hold his tongue this time..
If this gets faster, I can't ignore it.?
The foundation of foundations. Therefore, swordsmanship focuses only on cutting and stabbing the enemy quickly and surely rather than other miscellaneous techniques or techniques. It was like seeing a technology that anyone could learn and that anyone could use for general purposes, or that was only at that level, reach the level of mastery..
Even though I know this, attacks that move half a beat faster are extremely scary..
I heard that the coming-of-age ceremony hasn't even passed yet, but this level of perfection makes me believe that another soul has inhabited the child's body and has been studying swordsmanship for years..
"But...it's not particularly threatening.!"
"I know. You have a nice weapon.?"
Of course, he was using a sword that was worthy of being called a famous sword, but it was such a random story that the knight almost fell into a swamp of worry again..
Ironically, if Eldmia's sword hadn't suddenly started to shine, I would have been thinking about it and delayed my reaction. It was accompanied by strange black flashes that accelerated irregularly, and to be honest, it was a bit threatening.
"Damn, is this what it means to have three inches of tongue kill a person? Can’t I just make a fuss? Your tongue is a bit dangerous.?"
The slightest loss of concentration wouldn't be a problem under normal circumstances, but Eldmia's skills were the problem..
I can't see anything particularly outstanding, and I can't feel any aura surging, but it doesn't retreat at all. On the contrary, it was so tenacious that it was difficult to take any time off as it was so tenacious that if there was even a moment of opportunity, it would come in in an instant..
Thanks to this, the driver acknowledged for the first time in a long time that he needed to take things seriously..
"Let’s take a breather first.!"
-Kaang!
Since it was a sword that was explicitly swung to block, it was expected that Eldmia blocked it without difficulty. However, even though I swung it with the intention of blowing it up at least 5 meters, it was surprising that it only flew a little more than half that distance..
And for some reason, Eldmia also looked surprised..
"At this speed, it gives me the opportunity to do something like this.?"
"Because I gradually got used to it. They say I'm strong?"
Feeling a tingling sensation in his hand holding the sword for the first time in a while, the knight finally introduced himself with a feeling of great exaltation..
"Even after all this, there's no one on the front line who doesn't know the demon butcher Gish Hymir, right? Skills like yours are widely available there.."
It's true that it's excellent.
Above all, it is hard to believe that such an achievement is achieved at such an age. But death does not come as time goes by. Once she jumped into actual combat, Eldmia was just that much of a warrior. Among the knights on the front lines, all those who couldn't do as well as I did became corpses..
Gish was overconfident in his own abilities and decided to teach the boy his final lesson by risking his life after he had taken on an unreasonable challenge..
"Kid. I'll show you the skills of a knight who fought against demons and survived.."
"...demon?"
But why?.
"He earned the title of Butcher by fighting against the demons on the front lines.?"
Even though she heard what should have been a threat, Eldmia smiled ominously..
