Became the youngest disciple of God of War - Episode 215
215fury
To put it bluntly.
If the opponent wasn't an imperial knight, I would have started by hitting him on the back of the head while he was eating..
However, as Charles and Hector said, this is the imperial castle, and the opponents are the Royal Knights..
This means that no matter how crazy I am, I can't start a fight without a cause..
Just like this guy made an excuse to break Hector's arm.…….
For me, too, it's best to let this guy get into a situation where he can't overcome me and challenges me to a duel..
“under…….”
Molvius made a bewildered expression and shook his head..
Strangely, he didn't seem very upset..
Is your discipline surprisingly deep? Thinking back on the way this guy spoke from Charles, it doesn't seem like that..
‘Is it because of my appearance?.’
I thought that might be the case..
Since he is a child whose head has not even dried yet, the opponent shows patience once again despite blatant provocation..
Of course there is a way.
All you have to do is scratch the other person's insides until their eyes roll over. The moment I try to take off the spout again…….
“wait for a sec! ha ha ha.”
The driver sitting next to me joined in with a friendly smile..
“I don't know which family you come from, but you seem too excited. Please calm down first..”
It was a middle-aged man. I'm about forty.
The impressive face and expression are impressive. Although he is dressed like a knight, he seems far from authority..
I looked at this simple-looking man and spoke in a friendly tone..
“The old man is gone.”
“Well, don’t be so harsh..”
a good laugh.
To put it in a good way, it gives an unpretentious impression, but to put it in a bad way, it gives an old-fashioned look..
It's hard to be born in a noble family with a face like that..
‘Are you from a commoner background??’
This means that one has the personality to laugh off most insults..
The problem is that, as if this guy was a senior, Molvius also took his eyes off me and started concentrating on eating again..
‘Hmm.’
I heard that the Royal Knights are a group outside the rules of the Order..
Perhaps there were rules of their own in there..
In that case, I have no choice but to change my strategy..
“good. Come to think of it, Tongseongmyeong is still there. Are you?”
“My name is Fabian. I am a member of the Royal Knights with this friend. you?”
“Luan Badniker.”
“ah… gold fairy.”
Fabian nodded in understanding, and a slight sneer appeared on Molvius' face..
“Badknicker? I heard that the youngest child of Iron Blood Lord has a somewhat unique appearance, so it's just like the rumor. He doesn't look like his brother at all. is it. Did he come to avenge my brother on me?.”
“What is revenge? We're not a very close-knit family. There is an agreement that each other will clean up each other's poop..”
At my sudden analogy, the drivers eating around me put down their utensils at the same time..
‘Sorry guys..’
Since I was here to start a fight, I couldn't apologize out loud, so I just bowed my head inwardly..
Molvius said, still with a sneer on his face..
“Then why did you come here??”
“I heard people were saying that Badniker's swordsmanship was shabby, so I came to see for myself how great he was. As a result, it was a waste of time.”
“Even Badniker’s provocation method is lousy..”
Molvius smiled and said while holding up a glass of water..
“Originally, yes. I would have put a lot of effort into correcting a spoiled child like you, but unfortunately, due to yesterday's incident, I have already been nagged by the captain once..”
Leader?
Are you talking about the leader of the Royal Knights??
“It looks like you are participating in the award ceremony in place of the injured Hector Badniker, but you can't have two people attending His Majesty's Majesty lying in a sick bed..”
“What do you mean??”
“This means that we have no intention of falling for trivial provocations. From your perspective, it would be a fortune. You've escaped the fate of having both arms broken..”
“My manners and manners are not that weak.”
“What good are those manners in the face of pain?.”
Molvius, who did not understand my hidden language, started talking and then focused on his meal again..
The sound of dishes and utensils clashing rang slightly..
Did you think I would leave?.
I felt the gaze from all directions disappearing one by one..
Instead of throwing a tantrum, I leaned against the backrest for a moment and observed the situation..
‘I didn't force it.’
Now Molvius's attention has actually shifted away from me..
Since he looks young, I thought he would get over it if I cajoled him a little, but surprisingly, it wasn't that easy..
So what should we do?.
For some reason, I thought it would be difficult to fight here even if I threw the plate I was eating at this guy's face..
‘After all, those who are good at insults and provocations should do this..’
It might have been difficult from the beginning for someone like me who has a gentle personality and doesn't pick fights with others..
…Let's change direction a little bit?
I pondered for a moment the words and actions of Molvius..
It wasn't a long conversation…….
Basically, he is not a man who hides his emotional expressions, so there must have been a clue in the short conversation..
Tap, tap, tap. When I habitually knocked on the table about three times, something suddenly occurred to me..
This self-indulgent, arrogant guy only cares about himself, but he was at least polite to this guy called the captain..
Do you respect me?.
‘Should I try it?.’
I organized my thoughts and opened my mouth..
“When I was young, I also quite admired knights. But most knights I see in fairy tales don't tolerate insults, but you are different..”
“The knight's scabbard is heavy. Because I know when to pick it and when not to..”
“Are you saying it's the latter now? I see. Now I see that the Royal Knights were a group of pure cowards..”
The moment I intentionally burst out laughing, the surroundings suddenly became quiet..
Guys who looked like Royal Knights were staring at me..
Molvius’s expression also changed slightly. Even after chewing all the food, he doesn't move the utensil again and is glaring at me..
“Luan Badniker.”
Molvius said in a somber tone..
“If you want to live long, you'd better watch your mouth. Our honor is not so light that people like you can talk about it carelessly..”
“I'm so damn sleepy.”
Of course, I am not the kind of person who is intimidated by a murderous voice or a pressure-filled atmosphere..
On the contrary, as I looked at these guys' confrontational attitude, my head slowly started to heat up..
“Does a guy who did a good job, started a fight with someone who came to receive an award, and smashed his healthy arm talk about honor? Even a street bastard won't be more shameless than you. If they get caught stealing food, they will run away. You know no shame.”
“you…….”
“Hector was in a position to endure insults..”
I continued speaking in a calm tone..
“More than the you in front of me right now. But that idiot ended up pulling out his sword. Why did that happen?.”
no one answered.
Before I knew it, the surroundings had become quiet, and even the sound of rattling dishes had stopped..
First of all, there is no longer a single person left who calmly eats food..
I had no choice but to ask myself.
“Only when you step on the line.”
“what line.”
“There's me, there's you, there's a line engraved in each person's heart. It's not that people are stupid and don't walk that line. Anyone can make a sarcastic comment about their dead parents, but no one in their right mind would do that. This is because each person unconsciously recognizes the parts that should not be touched. You guys even touched it on purpose. So Hector was very angry..”
“haha.”
A good-natured laugh broke in..
It was Fabian..
“I understand what Confucius wants to say. But it's a bit emotional.”
Although he was polite, he was somehow strangely rude..
Because the tone was close to admonishment..
“How many people live their lives freely expressing their emotions in the first place? Each person becomes an adult by chewing on humiliation, getting used to being insulted. It is also the difference between humans and beasts. Confucius too would naturally come to this realization after going through the ups and downs of the world a few times..”
“Should I endure even if the other person insults and humiliates my family, close friend, or fiancé??”
“If so. Because although you may feel refreshed for a while thanks to the emotional punch, it eventually comes back as a boomerang that you can't handle..”
A cynicism crossed Fabian's face..
“It might be hard for you to understand. But most common people already live like that. How can they not know anger? Sometimes, I have no choice but to endure even though the crops I worked so hard to harvest are being exploited..”
“that's right.”
“what?”
“The grassroots can do that. Otherwise you will die. But, the driver can't do that..”
I spoke in a calm tone in what appeared to be a knight's restaurant..
“You are the anger of the people. The group that should be angry instead of the weak, their angry voices should be represented. For that purpose, you buy weapons, take elixirs, and train with expensive money provided by the government. But what is this? The best you can do is pretend like you didn’t even hear Little Youngdo’s provocation..”
“The story suddenly becomes strange. What you say is sophistry.”
I grinned..
Actually, Fabian was right..
What I am saying is sophistry. It doesn't really matter. In the first place, this type of war of words is not my main focus..
The important thing is that the original purpose was fully achieved..
It's about scratching the insides of these guys..
I even clapped and continued speaking..
“The people would be disappointed if they found out that the prestigious Royal Knights of the Imperial Family were such cowards..”
Did these words become a catalyst?.
Keying-!
A strange metallic sound rang out..
The dining knife held by Molvius was imbued with mana..
Looking at this guy's expression, it wasn't intentional, but it seemed like it was expressed unconsciously due to anger..
I looked beyond the knife to the bowl of Molvius..
“Don't you like beans? The driver is a picky eater..”
He grinned and twirled the fork in his hand once in his palm..
“fork?”
“When?…….”
Fabian and Molvius narrowed their eyes at the same time..
“Hands are naturally faster than eyes. If you don't like dueling, do this. From now on, I will take the beans from your table. If you take all the beans in one minute, you win. If you keep even one, you win..”
“under. What a strange thing-.”
“I don't accept it.”
“molvius!”
Fabian looked at him reproachfully, but Molvius spoke with a cold face..
“do you have a problem? It's not a duel, it's a bet at most. No one will get hurt.”
“…….”
“You saw it. This guy is persistent. The quickest solution is to trample it like this..”
“…Phew. Damn it.”
Fabian let out an uncharacteristic swear word and pressed his eyes..
“I can't help it. Then I will judge this bet..”
“That's right.”
I shrugged my shoulders, aimed my fork at Molvius, and said:.
“Let's start?”
The moment he finished saying, Mollvius swung his knife..
When I saw the bluish mana fluctuating on the blade of the knife, it seemed like it was planning to cut down my fork..
‘It will come out like that.?’
I also welcome this kind of head-to-head competition..
I grinned and held out my fork..
Kaang……!
The moment the two utensils collided, Molvius' expression hardened. Knife stuck in crack of fork.
Molvius tried to quickly retrieve the knife, but the response was slow..
Grumbling……!
I immediately used the first chloride ball and transferred the heat to the fork..
Because it is made of metal, the conduction speed was quite fast, and the water even reached the knife it was in contact with in an instant..
“Ugh……!”
Due to the sudden heat, Molvius lost his grip on the knife and immediately made an expression of regret..
Kaang!
I threw the knife down. Pingrrrr, a knife bent in a straight line was stuck in the center of the table..
The moment Molvius reached for the knife, I threw the fork..
deeply!
A fork was stuck in the back of my hand, and drops of blood came out. Molveers clasped his hands. It was only a moment, but this guy was full of loopholes and that was enough..
Without much interruption, I grabbed the plate with my hand and scooped the beans into my mouth..
gulp.
Although I like meat more than vegetables or grains, the beans were also delicious, perhaps because it was imperial food..
“you with your bare hands…….”
Molvius glared at me, holding the back of his hand where the fork was stuck..
“why. There was no rule that said you had to only use a fork..”
“ah…….”
Belatedly, Fabian looked like he had been punched..
I said, giggling..
“Are your hands okay? sorry. I made a mistake. So you shouldn't swing your knife like that on the table..”
Okay, I said.
I could clearly hear the sound of teeth grinding..
Molvius, looking at me with wide eyes, slowly took a deep breath and spit out the words as if chewing..
“…good night. If you want to be like Hector Badniker, then I will do it..”
The moment I saw his blushing face, I had a rough idea of what he was going to say..
“It's a duel.”
* * *
Of course, there were many training grounds inside the imperial castle..
It was even in front of the restaurant, which may have been the architect's consideration in encouraging people to exercise after eating..
There were quite a few people gathered in the training hall..
There is nothing more fun than watching a fight, so I understand..
“what are you……!”
There was also an onlooker I knew..
Charles Rubietta.
This guy didn't follow me to the driver's restaurant, but because of that, he figured out the situation somewhat late and started nagging me hotly..
“What are you doing?! There's less than an hour left until the award ceremony.!”
“It's an hour.”
At first glance, it seemed like there was plenty of room, but since it was an audience with the emperor, it would take at least dozens of minutes just to dress up.…….
Considering travel time, the actual free time will be less than 10 minutes..
in other words.
“that's enough.”
“yes?! Now, wait a minute-.”
I passed Charles, who was very talkative today, and went out to the training ground..
In the center of the training hall stood Molvius, who had already finished preparing..
“Are you okay after eating? If you move after eating, your sides will feel hungry..”
“Even in this situation, you talk well. Even now…….”
“Get down on your knees and apologize for the insult and I will let you go.?”
“…….”
“How come guys like you all say the same thing?.”
I said with a smile and Molvius sighed..
And after taking a look at my outfit as a whole, I say:.
“…I heard that your main strength is martial arts, but that alone is not enough..”
“hmm?”
“It means to take up arms. 'Cause your fists won't be able to handle my sword.”
“Hmm. surely…….”
I nodded with a different meaning..
For some reason, I felt that manners and manners alone were not enough to meet Molvius..
“good. I'll bring out a new weapon this time too..”
“new weapon?”
“okay.”
I pointed to my right leg and said.
“Rejoice! It is the launching ceremony of ‘concept’.”
