Swordfighting (3)

Finally, it was the day of the festival.

There are many children in the auditorium now.

“Hey. Aren’t you looking forward to sparring with Nam Do-yoon in Radeon swordsmanship today?”

“What are you looking forward to? The outcome is obvious anyway.”

“Well, it is.”

Soon after, Doyoon Nam and Radeon came up to the podium in the auditorium.

Alvin looked at the two.

From noble mtl dot com

I didn’t understand.

‘Radeon’ was no match for even the eldest son of the ‘Helid’ family, a renowned swordsman.

The person who came up as Radeon’s opponent was ‘Nam Do-yoon’

He just held a sword a few days ago and went to the swordsman’s workshop for a few days to learn swordsmanship.

Nevertheless, ‘Namdo Yoon’ is confident that he can beat ‘Radeon’ in this match.

Moreover, he heard that he even dropped out if he lost in this match.

I can’t quite understand his thoughts.

Alvin went up to the podium.

He was in charge of the referee for this ‘swordsmanship sparring’.

“Let me ask you one more time. Can we really go on like this?”

He said to Nam Doyoon.

“Yes.”

“Yes.”

It seemed that no matter what I said to Nam Do-yoon, who was determined, it would not work.

“Deon-ah. Are you going to use it?”

Elvin pointed at the dagger Radeon was holding.

“Yes. This is enough.”

The difference in reach between a short sword and a long sword is absolute.

Unless the difference in skills is overwhelming, a short sword can never beat a long sword.

It was clearly a huge penalty.

“Should I use a long sword?”

Nam Doyoon said.

“That’s it, I’ll listen if I’m judged worthy. Don’t worry about that.”

Radeon wanted to show off.

The overwhelming skill gap between Nam Do-yoon and himself.

The image of him defeating Nam Do-yoon with a long sword even with the huge penalty of a dagger.

So I want to flatten the nose of that guy who can easily see the sword.

Nam Doyoon looked into the air.

A blue interface was coming into his field of vision.

[Skill 5-[‘Traces of the Sword Master]-[ You can use the Sword Master’s swordsmanship. – LV1. However, the level is low, so perfect reproduction is impossible.]

Skill Description: You will be able to use the ‘Sword Master’s Swordsmanship’.

For 5 minutes, you will be able to use the ‘swordsmanship of the swordsman’.

However, due to the low skill level, it will not be perfectly reproduced.

Still, this is enough.

“Then wouldn’t it be better to wear a longsword around your waist?”

Nam Doyoon said.

“..That will never happen.”

“You said that. I’ll pick up a longsword if I think you’re worthy. I don’t have a long sword, so how are you going to carry it?”

“…Yes. I’ll do whatever you want.”

Saying that, Radeon inserted a longsword into his waist.

And he continued.

“But I will never use this.”

“Okay then, everyone go back.”

Alvin said.

Nam Doyoon and Radeon spread about 1M distance from each other.

The two faced each other.

“Start!”

At the same time as that voice, Radeon spurred his seat and left.

Hooung!

In an instant, Nam Do-yoon was within the range of his dagger.

Radeon aimed for his throat and began to slash his dagger.

Radeon grinned.

It’s over.

His sword position is down at the bottom.

This attack cannot be stopped now.

Just before Radeon’s dagger touched his throat.

Teeing-

Radeon’s dagger suddenly bounced off.

Radeon put on a dumbfounded expression.

Why the hell did this bounce?

And then he looked at the place where his dagger was headed.

In that position was Nam Do-yoon’s long sword.

“Oh..”

It was quite unexpected for Radeon.

I never thought he would be able to react to this attack.

Still, it doesn’t seem like you have very little talent for swords.

“You may need to be a little more serious.”

Said Radeon.

It was an unexpected reaction speed.

But that was all.

I only did it because Nam Do-yoon was my partner, so I was too lazy.

If you increase the strength just a little, it will definitely collapse.

Grab!

This time, Doyoon Nam took a leap towards Radeon.

Radeon calmly observed his movements.

A skilled swordsman can predict the trajectory of the sword even by looking at the movement of the opponent’s shoulder.

Radeon looked at his shoulder.

This is a sting coming in for his face.

“Your movements are so honest.”

Radeon smiled.

Radeon prepared to parry the stabbing attack aiming for his face with his dagger.

Put this dagger away and stab it right into the pit of the stomach.

Soon, Nam Do-yoon’s longsword started flying towards Radeon’s face.

As expected.

Just before Radeon’s dagger came up and cut off Nam Do-yoon’s long sword.

“!!!”

Suddenly, Nam Do-yoon turned his body.

At the same time, the sword’s trajectory changed in an instant and was flying towards the right rib of ‘Radeon’.

Radeon’s dagger was already in his face.

I couldn’t possibly reach it.

Radeon took out the longsword tucked into his right thigh.

Teeing-

Nam Doyoon’s longsword was blocked.

From anyone’s point of view, it was a perfect defense.

“….”

Radeon looked at the long sword in his right hand. He

He said he would only use a dagger, but he ended up using it.

Radeon’s impression was frowned upon.

There was silence in the auditorium.

The noise of the students, who had been talking loudly until just before, stopped.

And Erwin watched the scene with a blank expression.

He thought.

I thought that even if Radeon used a dagger, Nam Do-yoon would not be an opponent.

He had no doubt that it would end with Radeon’s overwhelming victory.

However, the results unfolded earlier were not so.

That guy eventually succeeded in making Radeon pull out the longsword.

This means that Radeon acknowledged the other party.

It was only a few days that ‘Nam Do-yoon’ practiced swordsmanship.

By the way, Radeon made him admit it.

Nothing else, but swordsmanship.

Is this possible?

And the scenery behind it was even more shocking.

Chaeng-

Chaeng-

Chaeng-

Radeon and Nam Do-yoon were exchanging swords equally.

Radeon swallowed his saliva.

Is this really possible?

Nam Doyoon hadn’t held the sword for a few days.

By the way, you’re exchanging swords on an equal footing with me, who has been carrying a sword all my life?

Chaeng-

Chaeng-

Chaeng-

Like that, Radeon and Nam Doyoon continued to exchange swordplay.

Radeon hastily started looking for gaps in Nam Do-yoon.

However, I didn’t see any gaps.

And that wasn’t all.

The degree of perfection in each movement of the sword was close to what he had been pursuing.

“I can’t believe it…”

Radeon also shared sparring with numerous knights working in his family.

However, not all of them were able to compete with Radeon.

Only one person.

Only the head of the ‘Grevil family’ overpowered Radeon with swordsmanship.

It was like watching the swordsmanship of the head of the Greville family.

How the hell is this even possible?

How the hell am I supposed to explain this phenomenon?

Radeon’s expression instantly became serious.

I decided not to look down on Nam Do-yoon as an underdog anymore.

From now on, I will assume that he is a good match and pour everything into it.

By doing this, he was sure he would win.

It’s just that I haven’t done my best yet.

Radeon kicked off the ground and sprang out.

In an instant, like a spring, it jumped out toward Nam Do-yoon.

Of course, he was sensational.

However, there are still immature points.

It is true that the perfection of swordsmanship seems high.

But that’s all.

Radeon has done his swordsmanship sparring thousands of times.

In comparison, Nam Do-yoon’s first swordsmanship sparring.

He lacks proficiency.

He was a little surprised, but that’s it.

Radeon held the longsword in his right hand and swung it at his face.

As expected, Namdo Yoon raised his sword toward his face for defense.

That moment.

Radeon threw his sword at his left hand in an instant.

Then he grabbed the longsword with his left hand.

Wedge-

Then, the longsword in his left hand flew towards Namdo Yoon’s thigh.

Radeon was convinced.

This is not an attack that can be prevented.

Ting-

However, Radeon’s sword bounced off aimlessly.

There was Nam Do-yoon’s long sword.

It was so fast that even Radeon’s eyes couldn’t chase it.

Nam Doyoon thought.

Five minutes have now come to an end.

However, the decision was surprisingly not easy.

There is a skill called ‘Footprints of the Sword Master’, but as expected, the level is still low, so it seems that it cannot imitate the perfect swordsmanship of the Sword Master.

All that was left was about 10 seconds.

I have to make a decision within that time.

And this ‘Trace of the Sword Master’ skill only shows its true value at the end.

It’s because of the ‘Foot Art’ that activates when the duration is 10 seconds.

This kick technique is invisible to the naked eye.

Namdo Yun tucked his longsword into his waist.

Radeon made an expression that he didn’t understand.

But I thought this was an opportunity.

Because we are completely defenseless right now.

Radeon swung his sword at Nam Doyoon’s head in an instant.

Just before the sword hit Nam Do-yoon’s head.

Wedge-

A strong wind blew.

And the wind hit Radeon hard.

Radeon collapsed on the seat.

“…”

No noise could be heard in the auditorium.
