Samurai Hearts – Chapter 1: For Revenge (5)

Episode 19

Do-hyeon, who took the sword that was headed towards Kanbei, turned his head.

Even when Do-hyeon, who was not familiar with the game, saw, he could see that this fight was not going to end with Kanbei.

Because there were a total of three swordsmen here, including Kanbei.

Besides, isn’t the name of the event being ‘The Trial of the Three Swordsmen’?

He was a handsome man with two long and short swords in a bare-waist dance where Dohyun’s eyes touched.

The handsome man who smiled brightly shook his seat and stood up.

“Hojo Mananeri of the Heavenly Spirits. A new sword of swordsmanship. It is an honor to be able to see with these eyes.”

surreung.

Mananeri, who drew two swords from her waist, lowered her body and took a pose.

A short sword in his left hand and a long sword in his right.

The short sword fluttered behind the long sword that was held out as if to check the opponent.

Despite using the same two swords, it felt quite different from the two thousand first-class swordsmen.

Dohyun looked at Mananeri with his sword hanging still.

Did you interpret that as accepting a duel?

“I’ll go!”

After shouting a single word, Mananeri ran towards Dohyun.

This time, Dohyun did not fight back by deflecting Mananeri’s sword.

He only hit a few times when it was really unavoidable, and other than that, he only dealt with just dodging or blocking.

So that the opponent can unleash his swordsmanship.

Now Seungyeon and the viewers knew the reason, so they were relaxed.

Seungyeon shrugged.

“My younger brother is a bit greedy. I see that he is trying to learn the Icheon Il-ryu and Jakye-seom-ho-ryu, followed by the Cheon-hyang God-ryu. Originally, he only learns one by one.”

-I’m bursting with greed hahahahahahaha

-Icheon First Class + Jakye Seomhoryu + Cheonhyang Shinryu =???

-You should include my swords hahahahahahahaha

– Don’t be Tsukamubara!

-Swordsmanship stew hahahahahahahahahaha

-Swordsmanship jjikkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

-Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Dohyun’s expression toward Mananeri calmed down.

Heavenly Gods (千香神流).

A sword of the gods with a thousand scents.

Do-hyeon, seeing the celestial gods unfolded by swordsman Mananeri, realized why this sword was given such a name.

The celestial deities were diverse and splendid.

True to the name of the Thousand Scents, it means that the attack and defense are free and the visible form is diverse.

I wondered if the short sword in his left hand would take over the defense, but he stabbed me in for a moment.

If you want the long sword in your right hand to cut you, you step back and stand in a position to protect it.

‘It is a sword that can not be vigilant even for a moment.’

It was even more so because the conversion of karate shown by the two-handed swords was free.

The sword that I thought would protect me the moment I stumbled through it.

It confuses the opponent by making it impossible to even guess which side is the attack and which side is the defense.

However, Dohyeon soon realized that the essence of the Heavenly Hyangshinryu was not in its splendor.

The colorful splendor is only on the outside, and if you dig deeper, the vision it contains is completely different.

You could tell by looking at Mananeri’s attack now.

“You can’t run away!”

The long sword in Mananeri’s right hand is stabbed straight at Dohyun.

Then, is the dagger in your left hand still? never did it

The dagger holds Dohyeon in check from a position where he can strike him at any time if he stretches out his sword.

fault!

Do-hyeon thought as she backed away from the long sword that stabbed her in the neck.

‘This is it.’

It does not forget to defend while attacking, and does not hesitate to attack while defending.

The perfect balance of the studio.

That was the core of the Cheonhyang Shinryu.

And it was also a unique effect of the Heavenly Gods.

The correction that allows you to freely go back and forth between attack and defense was the only effect of the Heavenly Gods.

At first, it was Dohyun who remembered that the Heavenly Gods had a well-balanced workshop and thought, ‘Why is this getting such an evaluation?’

Because the story of the splendor and variety shown through the two swords and the most balanced sword flow did not go well with each other.

But now I knew.

‘It’s definitely well-balanced.’

The splendor of the Heavenly Spirits is merely a weapon to dazzle the opponent.

Dohyeon saw through the fact that the essence is an unbreakable balance that can go back and forth between attack and defense at any time.

That’s why I was convinced that people say that the Heavenly Gods are a balanced swordsmanship.

But he didn’t know.

In general, people say that Cheonhyangshinryu is a balanced swordsmanship is simply because the attack correction and defense correction according to the posture are properly distributed.

This means that it is not about digging into the vision of the Heavenly Gods so deeply and realizing its meaning.

In conclusion, saying ‘a balanced swordsmanship’ was the same, but the process of reaching that conclusion was just as different as the sky and the earth.

Of course, even if I knew that, nothing would change.

‘That’s enough.’

Henhyangsinryu also ‘saw’ enough.

As soon as he thought he no longer had to experience the Heavenly Gods, Dohyeon moved.

Mananeri didn’t have the ability to stop Do-hyeon, who had decided to end it.

His swordsmanship level was just on par with Kanbei.

Chaeeng-

Do-hyeon cut down Mananeri’s long sword that was cutting him.

One sword strikes the right long sword, and the other sword pierces the defense of the left dagger.

If you naturally bring it to the neck of Mananeri, who raised his arms like a hurrah, that’s it.

It was a much simpler ending than when he faced Kanbei, but that doesn’t mean he’s weaker than Kanbei.

It just wasn’t good enough.

Do-hyeon, who had the ability to grasp the opponent’s swords and break the balance of the workshop, was Mananeri’s natural enemy.

-Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

– What? I’ve been looking for something else for a while, what happened?

-You’ve been “sword-sanctified”…Press X to pay your respects…

-X

“…we have lost.”

Mananeri, who defenselessly held the sword against his neck, admitted defeat.

Do-hyeon’s gaze turned to the last swordsman who saw him step back and sharpen his sword.

The only woman among the three swordsmen.

The woman who caught the attention hurried forward.

“I’m Mio Izumi of the Swordsmanship. New swordsman, I ask for a lesson.”

– Mio-nim is here!

– Mi-ha (meaning Mio Hi)

– Miha!

Chaang-

Mio, who introduced herself, pulled out the sword from her waist and took a pose.

It is a posture commonly called the middle class (中段勢), and although it is the most common posture among swordsmanship, it was a flag-bearing ceremony that Dohyeon had never seen before.

Normal enemy soldiers used spears, and ninjas used ninja swords.

There’s no way the sword wielding a double sword, Kanbei with a two-meter stance, and Mananeri, who also wields two long and short swords, can’t stop.

“going!”

Nettle!

Take a step towards Dohyeon and cut down the front.

Just like in Kanbei, Dohyeon, who was trying to avoid by moving sideways, flinched and raised his sword.

It was an instinctive action.

With the sound of iron, Dohyun and Mio take a step back from each other.

“Well······.”

Dohyun’s eyes widened slightly.

Now he knows what the jackpot roll is and is using him well.

The effect that exploded now was definitely that of a great success.

Nevertheless, he and Mio both took a step back.

Just like the sword castle Kato.

Even Kanbei and Mananeri must have flinched at the great deflection success!

‘Are you on the same level as the swordsman?’

But it lacked something important to do that.

There was a feeling of dizzying intimidation even as the sword of the swordsman faced it, because Mio’s sword was just plain ordinary.

I knew it well because it was Dohyun who had already risked her life to fight the swordsman Kato.

Do-hyeon, who was curious, went on the offensive.

It was a different attitude than before, but in order to see the sword of the opponent, it was because he decided that this would be the most effective.

visor! Fight! visor!

The ensuing gladiator proceeded without any retreat from each other.

As if to prove that it was not a coincidence that he did not stop despite the great success judgment, Mio withstood Dohyun’s offensive.

But for Dohyeon, that alone was enough to discover the identity of the sense of alienation he had felt for the first time.

‘This is my sword.’

Swordsmanship (制劍流).

This swordsman’s rite is not the king’s disciple.

The agent to suppress!

sword. In other words, it means that it is a swordsmanship that suppresses the sword.

It was the greatest characteristic of this sword type to restrain the opponent’s sword by entangling it with one’s own sword.

Suppressing the opponent’s sword has many meanings.

It is said that, starting with movement, it can suppress all of the aftermath.

That was the identity of the alienation that Dohyun felt when he first deflected his opponent’s sword.

‘I even suppressed the aftermath of the deflection I wrote.’

It was also the reason why Do-hyeon’s instinct did not dodge the sword and countered it.

Realizing that once entangled, subsequent fights become quite cumbersome, he chose to fight it rather than avoid it.

In order not to be affected by the unique effect of ‘Suppress the opponent’s sword’.

‘This is why Jegeomryu is….’

Why is it that the swordsman specializes in protecting himself?

You could tell by looking at Mio’s swordsmanship.

To the end, he pushes his opponent firmly and with honesty, and tries to entangle his sword.

There was no ferocious aggression or colorful splendor, but he had the strength to firmly suppress his opponent and carry out his will.

He pushes himself like this and doesn’t overdo it, so it must be easier to protect himself compared to other swordsmanships.

However.

This, too, is a sword that cannot reach the sword castle Kato.

Mio’s sword bounces off a single sword that twists and swings, making a heavy metal sound.

Mio, who was holding the sword, also took three steps back.

The result is clearly different from before when we took a step back from each other!

This was done because the power contained in the sword was clearly different from before.

Is it the difference between instinctive behavior and intentional behavior?

‘If you can’t suppress the opponent’s power, there’s nothing a swordsman can do.’

No matter how strong you are, you can’t suppress everything.

If that were possible, the swordsman would have been Mio Izumi, not Kato Hatsuragi.

No matter how solidly he endured and tried to suppress his opponent, it was enough to push him harder than that.

By the way, didn’t Do-hyeon just learn the swordsmanship that went beyond aggressive and even violent?

‘Jakyeseomhoryu’s attack method.’

Wow-! Damn-! Damn it!

blitz like a storm.

They rush in as if to say that the previous offensive was a joke.

Standing in front of him, Mio only sways to and fro like a ferry in a storm.

“み?!”

Zeng-!

She was desperately trying to regain her posture, but there was no way Dohyun was watching it silently.

In a way, this was Mio’s misfortune.

The more he fights, the more he fights and the more swordsmanship he experiences, the stronger he gets.

Therefore, the woman who fought the last time must be at the most disadvantageous position.

Eventually, Mio falls to the floor with a single scream.

An inexcusable defeat.

It was the moment when all three swordsmen, the representative swordsman of the Cheonhwadan, were defeated by Dohyeon.

“It’s a really great swordsmanship. Indeed, it’s a new swordsmanship that defeated the swordsmanship of that time, no, previous generations.”

When the defeat of the Three Swords became certain, it was Tengu who went out.

The tengu, who joined the conversation with his characteristic squeaky laughter, looked at the black wolf.

A black wolf, not a do-hyeon.

At the same time as defeating Mio, he entered the event cutscene again.

“If you don’t mind, may I ask where your swordsmanship school is?”

“My school of swordsmanship is….”

The black wolf stops talking.

The game freeze that occurred before the match with the Three Swordsman took place again.

As it was a phenomenon I had experienced once, there was no muttering this time.

However, it was a little different from the previous one in that the option did not appear, and a scroll used in the system of Samurai Hearts was unfolded in front of him.

The contents of the scroll were as follows:

─We are creating a swordsmanship school tailored to the player’s inclinations.

The swordsmanship school is being established!

It means that the reward for breaking through the ‘Trial of the Three Swordsman’ event is being settled.

And finally, scrolls with new contents appeared in front of Do-hyeon.

There were a total of three scrolls.

‘This time, it’s a choice.’

Dohyun looked at the options that came to his mind.
