by fnovelpiaIf you were to describe this situation in one word, what would you say?
It could be said that it literally makes your hands sweat.
“A supernova appeared like a comet in the Department of Swordsmanship…
And it happened to be a battle between the Sistine Paladins who were studying abroad… !!
You must see this… … !! hey!! Where is the popcorn?”
“Wow… You turned the swordsmanship department upside down… !!”
Isn’t this unfolding like a play?
Like a scene from a movie, a super rookie suddenly appears, knocks aside all of her seniors, blocks her path, and shouts, “No problem!!”, a special agent dispatched from a secret organization.
However, even with all the commotion around them, there was silence between the two women who were glaring at each other, as if they were not breathing.
If Vivian was hesitating as if she was looking for a rough way to destroy Roxanne’s posture and actions, what was Roxanne thinking as she looked at Vivian?
The tip of her halberd brightly illuminated the training ground, shining sharply and reflecting the brilliant sunlight according to God’s will.
“Won’t you come?
Then I will go from my side.”
A relaxed tone of voice that he does not use when he is with Yeriel.
However, Vivian’s voice was like that of a berserker, conveying the excitement of battle, and Vivian’s hand holding the handle of the sword was full of strength.
As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of Roxanne’s footsteps hitting the floor with a thumping sound.
It was too quick to be considered the movement of a knight fully armored.
Considering the weapon she is holding, it would be heavier than adding her own body weight.
Roxanne’s movements did not lose her balance at all, and she was charging forward with precision, like a mounted knight on horseback.
At that moment, the tip of the halberd’s spear, aimed forward, was thrust forward with a sharp cracking sound.
Vivian, who narrowly avoided the spear point piercing her heart, quickly turned her head to avoid the halberd’s attack, which struck her with the axe by swinging its sword straight in the air as if inertia did not exist.
“Oh… It’s a lot bigger than I thought… …
I usually can’t avoid the second one… ”
Well, that’s right, who would have thought that while avoiding being stabbed in the heart with a spear, he would swing his halberd upward in such a way, as if defying the laws of physics and even gravity.
Also, although I said I avoided it, the warm sensation I felt in my chest and cheeks actually meant that I had been cut by an ax blade.
Nemea’s chest, which had taken the form of a school uniform, was torn, and small streams of blood began to trickle down from her cheeks.
However, there was no way that an injury of this magnitude could have made the difference between victory and defeat.
Seeing Roxanne taking a step back again, Vivian adjusted her sword in the same way.
‘Tch… It’s a monster… … ‘
To someone else, it might look like he was swinging chopsticks with one hand, but that halberd seemed no different from a massacre weapon, whether from its weight alone or from its shape.
In fact, Roxanne’s ability was already proven simply by being able to swing such a halberd with almost no inertia.
If that woman had fought with a sword instead of a halberd, and with her bare body instead of full armor, how much faster could she have been?
A sense of crisis was rising in Vivian’s mind.
It was the moment when I clearly recognized that the enemy in front of me was clearly a strong enemy.
“Nemea… … ”
Since everything happens because it happens, Vivian quietly called Nemea.
No, more precisely, a new order was given to Nemea in the form of an ‘academy uniform’.
Right now, it’s just something that takes the form of clothes, so it reflects its texture and shape, but I can feel the lining starting to gently stick to my body, holding my body tightly.
Since ancient times, she has done whatever it takes to win.
The thought that she would do it this time too was making her blood boil.
“To be honest, it’s a bit expensive.
I have to finish it quickly.”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
Vivian, who started to run like the wind, was watching Roxanne’s figure, which was in perfect landing posture, gradually growing larger, and was beginning to analyze it closely.
‘The opponent is the spear.
I can’t give you a half-hearted distance.
In the end, I had no choice but to get closer somehow.
But even if you close the distance, if you do something wrong, you’ll get hit with an ax blade.’
Vivian quickly raised the tip of the spear aimed precisely at her just before it touched her face.
However, as soon as the tip was raised, the halberd raised its ax blade and rushed towards his head.
At that very moment, Vivian’s sword blade struck the ground as if in a melee, scraping against the halberd’s spear, making a metallic sound.
‘Even the window sill is a piece of metal… ?
You really are a crazy monster… !!’
However, it was Vivian who was able to approach at a close range that not only the spear blade of the halberd but also the ax blade could reach.
At this distance, you have an absolute advantage.
Roxanne, perhaps aware of this fact, seemed to be walking backwards, kicking her toes.
In the end, it was difficult for the sword to reach, and a safe distance was maintained from the halberd.
“Wow… How can you achieve that speed with that full armor? … ?”
“They say he’s a Holy Knight of Sistine… !!
That must be relaxing… ?”
Those around her seemed to be amazed at Roxanne’s speed, as they seemed to be exclaiming in excitement.
Now that it was having the opposite effect of boosting Roxanne, Vivian clicked her tongue and continued to dig into Roxanne’s arms.
‘But I can’t run away anymore… !!’
Otherwise, since this place was a training ground, there was bound to be an end.
If you run backwards, the end you reach is a wall.
Whether you liked it or not, there was no way to escape, and especially for a window that needed a wide range of motion, sticking to the wall was literally a dead end.
In the end, that was the moment when there were only three steps left on the wall.
‘it’s over… !!’
Vivian, who was confident of her victory, seemed to be pushing forward one step at a time.
Perhaps because she sensed the presence of the wall behind her, Roxanne’s eyes slowly turned to the side, and at that moment, Vivian’s sword was thrust forward.
“Haaa!!”
If he was heavily armed like that, he wouldn’t be seriously hurt even if he attacked a little too hard.
And especially since I was planning on stopping in the middle anyway.
In front of Vivian, who was running with all her might, thinking that a moment’s speed would determine the outcome, Roxanne appeared to be taking steps with three steps left until she reached the wall.
“Intake… … ”
This moment passes as if in slow motion.
It was Vivian’s sword stabbing into Roxanne’s chest, which was covered by her armor.
But at that very moment, Vivian’s eyes were shaking as she saw Roxanne taking another step back.
‘There’s a wall behind it… …
I can’t use the window… !!’
It’s like the Holy Knight of Sistine seals his own weapon.
It was the exact moment when a sneer appeared on my lips, thinking that maybe just because it was a secretive country, its capabilities might not have been revealed.
In Roxanne’s hands, who took a step back, the iron halberd began to bend.
It was not bent like a figurative expression, but physically, as if its shape was being distorted.
‘……!!’
Before Vivian had time to be surprised, the bending halberd began to embrace Vivian and wrap around her neck like a tentacle.
In that state, Roxanne took one last step back, leaned her feet against the edge of the wall, and looked as if she was going to run forward at any moment.
Only after that, Vivian, who was able to learn the secret of the bending halberd, was able to realize the identity of the chains hidden inside the iron spear divided into dozens of tiers and the weapon, which was actually closer to a mace than a spear.
As the chains spin around and tighten around your neck, the halberd ax blade will reach the end, and if it hits your neck…
‘this… As it is… die… … ‘
As her heart pumped vigorously in a moment of fear, Nemea began to reflexively hug her neck.
However, can Nemea block the blade of such a heavy weapon that kills with its weight rather than cutting like a normal sword?
Even at this moment when he was thinking about such things, the chain was wrapping around his neck at high speed.
Ultimately, it meant that it was time to make a choice.
Will you leave defeat in your mind through fear and distrust, or will you die as a winner, believing in Nemea?
And Vivian de Grenot had only one option to choose from.
As Vivian raised the sword that was stabbing into Roxanne’s chest, sparks flew between the robe and the sword.
The very moment the tip of her sword, sparking with sparks, touched Roxanne’s uvula.
– Caen
Vivian reflexively flinched and closed her eyes as she began to feel something hitting her neck, accompanied by a dull sound.
“Excellent. I lost.”
While the chains that were wrapped around Vivian’s neck were intersecting and aligning, the ax blade of the halberd was inserted into the gap.
Although it gave the illusion that it was stuck in the neck, in reality it was the chain’s own neck without any damage.
And, as if in admiration, Roxanne was looking at herself with bright eyes, and blood was flowing down from her neck, where she had been slightly cut by the tip of Vivian’s sword.
“I never thought I would be using this from day one.”
Judging by the young, energetic smile on Roxanne’s face, it seemed true that Vivian had pushed her quite a bit, but had Roxanne even assumed this situation from the beginning?
It’s 3 seconds. only 3 seconds
Even in that urgent situation, he took steps to prevent himself from getting hurt.
Roxanne said that she lost, but in reality, it was Vivian who had no choice but to realize that it was she who distrusted her opponent and chose to be the same, trying to hurt her opponent.
As Roxanne’s wrist holding on to the chain gently twisted, the ax blade embedded in the chain wrapped around Vivian’s neck was thrown off her neck and was spinning around again…
And only after it was completely released, what had been a chain mace until a moment ago had once again become a halberd, and was serving as a cane to Roxanne, who was slowly starting to raise her bowed body.
“I learned a lesson.
It was really fast.”
At least the intention was to target Donggwijin, so it was a shame that he, who touched the sword first, won by decision. If he had fought normally, he would have definitely lost.
The fact that the other person was considerate of oneself who dug in with all one’s might meant that the other person had a lot of leeway even though they were cornered.
“I saw Sistine’s skills well.
If I had fought normally, I would have lost.
It’s okay if you win.”
From Roxanne, who stood up with her halberd, to Vivian, who had withdrawn her sword and returned it to its scabbard.
Roxanne stood up completely and came closer to Vivian.
“It’s too much praise. It was great, right?
For a new student to be like this, he needs to work hard!!
Introducing myself again, this is Roxanne Stronovame.
What is your name?”
Vivian was startled by Roxanne’s touch, which stretched out her hand like a tempting snake’s tail and gently traced her cheek with her fingers.
When she realized that the shallow cut on her face that Roxanne had touched disappeared without a trace, she began to look at the knight of the county office in front of her with startled eyes.
“’BB’… … ‘Bibi’ is enough.”
A talent that first comes to mind as being extremely great.
An unbearable smile appeared on Vivian’s face after experiencing the ‘Sistine’ for herself.
In the end, it seemed like his intentions had worked.
Although it was no different from defeat, it showed an incredible bloody fight that was ‘recognized’ by the Holy Knight of Sistine.
And I was able to hold Roxanne’s hand as she reached forward and shake her hand.
The expressions of the students looking at that scene were tinged with subtle emotions.
Respect for some, jealousy for others, and a desire to win for others.
A variety of complex emotions surrounded the air around her, but one thing was certain.
“You definitely hit a bit, right?
I thought it would be a handful.”
“You say you come from a commoner background, so you’re unique?
Who did you learn it from? Is it really true?”
“Where is that knife?
Branche? Carver?
Why don’t you tell me?”
Right now, at this very moment, I am repeating everything I had in the past.
Now, a whopping three months have passed since he disappeared from the Academy.
Vivian was able to return to the center of the swordsmanship department once again.
Although she had some help, this time she did it on her own.
Roxanne turned away from her and returned to her original position, sticking her tongue out at Anne, who was still squatting and watching the whole scene.
Anne’s expression, looking at ‘Bibi’ with a half-stern expression, seemed stiff for some reason.
Did he feel something while looking at the new student?
“Ah~ I lost~
They say it’s the best academy in the Kingdom of Groden.
It certainly seems like the new arrivals are unusual too?”
“You fought well… …
If it were me, I wouldn’t have been able to do that… ”
As the murmurs flowed from Anne’s half-open mouth, Roxanne’s eyes were quietly staring into Anne’s eyes.
“I took a quick look, and Anne’s body is quite well-made.
Is there any reason why such a prosecutor cannot perform to his full potential?”
“Unable to demonstrate skills… reason… … ?”
“Aren’t you still that depressed?
Isn’t it because I have a lot of worries?
The prosecutor said that the moment emotions were put on the tip of the sword, it became dull.
Then, how about emptying your mind first?”
“Heart… … Empty… … ?”
How do you do something like that?
In the first place, what I was embracing wasn’t something that could be solved by emptying my mind.
However, seeing Roxanne continuing her conversation with confidence, was it inevitable that Anne, who wanted to grasp at straws, was shaken?
“If you just worry, your feelings will not be resolved.
They say it’s best to solve the problem…
After all, you can do that as you wish, right?”
“Yes… ji… … ”
“Then wake up.”
For a moment, he stood up as if he was being dragged by Roxanne’s hand, which helped him up.
“So, there’s something surprising there again, right?
How about experiencing the culture of the Sistine?
It’s time to go back for a while, so let’s go together… ah… late… !!
Wow!! I was late because I was too busy with the duel!!
Miss Anne!! Don’t go too quickly!! ”
As she suddenly began to run away making a fuss, Anne had to run towards the outside of the gym with Roxanne, unable to even hide her embarrassment.
“Aaaah!! Ms. Roxanne!!
Wait!! Where are you going? ”
On the way out of the training hall, Anne made eye contact with a blue-haired freshman surrounded by other students.
“To be able to do that by training alone is amazing.
I thought he was arrogant at first, but I will admit his skills.
Let’s get along well, Bibi.”
“It’s nothing special, right?
Because now we have ‘seniors’ too.
Would you like to ask for more guidance? Uhuhu… ”
What was it that made him feel an inexplicable attraction to the sight of the new student ‘Bibi’, whose eyes were slightly twitching, as if he felt something as soon as he made eye contact with him?
Anne looked back for a moment at the group of students who were moving away with a brief passing, and her running continued until she arrived at the work building.
