I don’t know why this little guy who didn’t even live a tenth of my life has feelings so deep that they can be compared to mine…

He shook his head roughly, shaking off his distracting thoughts.

It’s none of my business.

Above all, I too couldn’t get out of that sticky feeling, so what can I say?

With a light sigh, I shook off the thoughts swirling around in my head and started walking.

…

“Anonymous.”

The nameless man who was swinging his sword turned his head at the sound of his name being called and faced me.

“Master?”

“Before we begin the training, I have something to tell you.”

“Yes, I will listen.”

The nameless man focused on me, holding the black club he was holding, in a posture of deep concentration that I had never taught him before.

I looked at that nameless man and smiled, then patted his back and opened my mouth.

“Don’t support it.”

At first, I planned to say a few harsh words to the nameless person who didn’t seem to be nervous at all… .

A duel is a duel, so you shouldn’t let my words get you down, right?

“Yes, Master.”

Anonymous also smiled back.

…

The center of the training ground.

Harang, standing between Myeong and Lucius, raised his arms high and opened his mouth.

“Well… I know you already know, but before we start the fight, I’ll tell you one thing to keep in mind.”

Since it is not a matter of life and death, the use of weeds is prohibited.

“Even if there is a saint like Elia, they say that she cannot bring back someone who is already dead.”

After finishing his short speech, Harang slowly turned his head and looked at Moo-myeong and Lucius.

“Do you understand?”

““Yes.””

Almost at the same time, I finished answering,

Harang, who confirmed it, nodded his head slightly and took a step back.

“Okay, then you can start by signaling my arm dropping.”

Anonymous stared into Lucius’ eyes, his entire body tense.

Unfortunately.

When I think about the gap between myself and Lucius,

If you show even the slightest opening, you will be knocked out.

but.

Would that be a reason for him to lose?

Originally, the outcome of a match was not determined by the total amount of internal energy possessed.

It’s decided by who handles the sword better.

And I am confident that I am not inferior to anyone except my master when it comes to handling a sword.

The corners of his mouth curled up.

At the same time, the Master’s arm fell off.

“Start.”

A voice was heard announcing the start of the duel,

The nameless body shot towards Lucius.

However.

Contrary to the anonymous prediction that his own sword would touch first.

-Kang!

Lucius’ sword reached the nameless one first.

There was no fancy technique to Lucius’ sword.

A vertical cut that may seem crude at first glance, as the name suggests.

However, the eyes of the nameless man who blocked the sword directly were wide open.

be heavy.

But it’s bearable.

Soon, as if to ridicule such nameless thoughts.

A brilliant golden aura emanated from Lucius’ body.

It covered the entire training ground.

-Thud

The floor of the arena began to shake from the energy waves emanating from Lucius’ body.

Clenching his teeth, the nameless man released his own energy to resist it.

Like my teacher, but a little different,

A crimson wave of energy flowed out from the nameless body.

However, even if the total amount of internal energy does not determine the outcome,

It was natural that there would be a difference in weight class.

Slowly, as the nameless sword began to push,

Nameless clicked his tongue slightly and relaxed his grip on the sword.

Then, swords clashed against swords throughout the training ground.

A creepy sound rang out,

Lucius’ sword was brought down.

The nameless man quickly stepped back to avoid him,

Lucius seemed to have expected it,

He immediately drew his sword horizontally.

The nameless man who noticed him, as if protecting himself,

He blocked Lucius’ sword by raising his sword vertically.

Because I moved so quickly, I couldn’t get my posture right.

The body rose up and floated in the air, flying to a corner of the training ground.

-thud

Thick smoke obscured the view.

Elia was slightly surprised by this and got up from her seat to stop the duel.

Harang stopped her and smiled slightly.

“What are you doing? It’s not over yet.”

As Harang finished speaking.

Through the smoke, the sound of footsteps could be heard.

There, the anonymous man came out, brushing the dust off his clothes.

“Tsk, I’ll go back.”

The nameless man clicked his tongue slightly and regained his composure before rushing towards Lucius.

…

… how can he know all his tricks?

Move your shoulders slightly or stretch your legs,

He moved as if he was going to run straight at me.

Lucius didn’t even move an inch,

He just stood there and looked at the nameless person.

The anonymous man narrowed his eyes and looked at Lucius as if he was assessing him.

In Lucius’s movements,

I feel confident as if I knew what was coming.

…no way.

It’s a ridiculous guess, though.

… can you really see the future?

If not, is it to read and discern the will contained in the sword?

I don’t know which one is correct, but

Anything is a hassle.

“Tsk.”

The nameless man clicked his tongue slightly to confirm his guess,

He leapt at Lucius and swung his sword horizontally.

But swinging horizontally is a lie.

His real purpose lies in the kick that follows.

Even if Lucius could read the will contained in his sword,

He puts shallow intentions into his sword so that it cannot be noticed.

The nameless sword swung horizontally in a large direction, heading towards Lucius.

Lucius dodged him with a light kick,

Myeong took advantage of the recoil from the horizontal swing and twisted his waist to kick him.

Lucius seemed to have expected him,

I twisted my waist and dodged it naturally, like flowing water.

The anonymous person let out a hollow laugh.

“Huh.”

Is it because of his own shortcomings, or does this person really see the future?

Soon, Moo-myeong closed his eyes as he watched the sword being swung at him.

This time, I lost.

…

The tip of Lucius’ sword stopped in front of the nameless man’s neck.

“Umm… It’s over.”

The match ended with an anonymous defeat.

It’s a shame, but… .

No, I didn’t regret it at all.

Throughout the entire fight, the nameless attacks showed no sign of success.

He sighed and wiped his face.

I don’t even know how to speak to an anonymous person… .

I can only say that the other person was bad.

If the nameless defeat was due to a lack of swordsmanship or experience, then there would be something to teach the nameless in this duel.

After watching the duel between Mumyeong and Lucius, Mumyeong’s swordsmanship skills were superior.

From the beginning.

He’s a disciple I’ve taught for years, so there’s no way he’d be lacking in swordsmanship.

Then, if you think about ‘Why did the nameless lose?’… .

“Hmm… .”

I don’t know that either.

Lucius’ swordsmanship is the epitome of classic swordsmanship.

Of course, the level of application itself was high, as it was based on a lot of practical experience.

The only way to utilize your internal energy is to just ignorantly emit energy or apply strong force.

There was no special operation method visible.

As someone who hasn’t seen much of the people, I can’t say this without seeing that there was nothing remarkable about Lucius’ sword.

…but.

For some reason, his movements were filled with confidence.

It’s not like I’m thinking of multiple numbers and moving like an anonymous person.

He thinks of just one number.

…as if he knew the near future, just seconds ahead.

It was an absurd thought that occurred to me midway through the conversation.

last.

Not being fooled by the nameless scarecrow gave me confidence in this thought.

I don’t know to what extent, but author Lucius can definitely see the future.

My head was pounding.

… This is a headache.

What can I say to comfort the nameless person?

…

After a brief thought, he moved towards the nameless man lying on the floor of the training hall.

… Hmm, why are you covering your eyes with your arm so anxiously?

Surely you’re not going to cry…?

As if to give strength to my terrible assumption, soon the nameless shoulders began to tremble.

…are you really crying?

When I saw Anonymous doing that, the tip of my nose started to tingle for no reason.

To quickly comfort Anumyeong, he approached him, biting his lips.

“Anonymous.”

“…”

“He just lost in a duel, didn’t he? Why is a grown man crying over losing once?”

Even at my call, the nameless man’s shoulders flinched and trembled.

The reply that would normally have come right away did not come.

Feeling even more anxious, I crouched down next to the nameless man who was lying down and patted his shoulder.

“Keung… Don’t be too heartbroken.”

So, to comfort the nameless, I pat the nameless on the shoulder.

“Sigh.”

Soon, I heard a sound that made me doubt my ears.

He frowned.

“Anonymous?”

Nameless, who I thought was just shedding tears, suddenly stood up from his seat.

“Ahahahahaha!”

Soon they started bursting into laughter.

“Ah, that was really fun. Lucius, can I ask you to spar with me often in the future?”

“Anonymous?”

“… Master? Master! Why are your eyes red?!”

“…”
