120. Melgard Tournament (2)
120. Melgard Tournament(2)
Sothia Sonia had a dream. One day when she got lost in the woods of her childhood, she appeared majestic and wanted to be like the cool knight who saved her. She became a strong knight and wanted to reassure someone, just as he reassured herself.
Sotia was greatly impressed by her courageous knight. From that day on, she trained by running around the village every morning, rain or shine, without missing a single day. Sotia, who was told that she is a strong knight, is a knight who knows how to defeat herself. Sotia increased the intensity of her training day by day, such as enduring even in front of her sweet treats.
Sotia Sonia, in order to fulfill her dream of being a knight, enters Arisha Academy in a faraway land. Strange land. She was afraid of everything at first, but she got the support of the church, and although she is a member of the church, she has a lot of friends. She was able to stay close to the revered saint, which made her happy in her own way.
She was recognized by the saintess, and when she was asked to guard a male student, she was overjoyed. She was still a wannabe, but it was because she felt like she was recognized as one knight. Her escort target, a senior named Warros Blood, was truly a strange person.
My first impression of her was that she was very blunt. She was like a person who wouldn’t change even if the world turned upside down. But she was actually different. The senior had a charm that attracted people. She swore to keep this man down. She was personally attracted to Worros, and since it was the first knight’s mission she received, she was determined to succeed.
But she failed. She was unable to protect him from the Guardian Knight, Federik.
She started to get weird from then on. If you run in the morning, you trip over a rock and fall. During her training, she sprains her leg. The so-called slump has arrived. I was anxious. She couldn’t sleep until the night thinking that she wouldn’t be able to fulfill her dream of becoming a knight.
I felt strangely relieved when I found him to apologize to senior Woros, who was the object of my guilt. The day she caught him and her wasps, Sotia Sonia had a sudden thought. She says she wants to live her academy life like this guy. In order to do that, she thought, she must not be buried in her past mistakes.
We have to overcome. I made a mistake this time, but when the next opportunity comes, I have to do it proudly. However, a terrible slump follows and torments Sotia Sonia. Sotia went to Woros as a special measure. When she sees him, her anxiety melts away like snow.
She thought about going back and doing her training again, but somehow she wanted to tell him about her slump. She looked back at her later that she went and she wondered why she said she wanted to fool him. Elder Warros. He was happy to be with him and felt at ease.
Desire blooms in her heart. She wants to get closer to this person. I want to share my precious dream with this person. It was then that a good idea came to my mind.
ㅡWhen you start promoting in earnest, there must be a lot of people aiming for seniors. If that time comes, please allow me to protect my seniors. I want to become a guardian knight who is loyal to my seniors.
An oath to become a guardian knight of Woros. Sotia, who revealed her aspirations to him, overcame the slump proudly and became a support that allowed him to endure even harder training. Sotia thought.
I want to show him that my resolve is not just words. When to show It is now. Now I’m going to show him all of me. Stepping onto the pitch, Sotia Sonia thought about this.
Sotia Sonia quickly looks around the inside of the stadium full of shouts. In the densely packed crowd, the gaze stops at a person’s face as if drawn.
Woros Blood. My senior I will show him today. Sotia Sonia recalled that resolution and set her antennae as a warrior all over her body. It is a story that she kept the senses of her whole body sharp through her mental concentration.
Then, with the sound of the game starting, Sotia Sonia ran out.
She gripped her sword and, carrying her own dreams and her determination, swung her sword at her opponent, her Irina Blood.
Irina, her eyes widened for a moment, uses her incredible reflexes to duck and dodge Sotia’s sword. Her audience cheered as Sotia struck a powerful blow from the start and Irina displayed her incredible reflexes.
“You can’t catch me like that!”
“Yes.”
Sotia’s movements increased from swinging her sword. Irina grabs her dagger and reaches her hand towards Sotia’s side. At the same time, Sotia swings her lightweight centipede-shell shield, which is hard and tough, and cuts off Irina’s dagger.
Kang!
Sparks fly when the dagger and the steel ball embedded in the shield collide. Sotia’s pride, parrying, entered correctly and Irina’s posture collapsed in an instant. Seeing Irina like that, Sotia exclaimed.
“You can’t pierce me that way.”
“Kuh.”
Irina throws her body behind her to put her opponent in the distance and then catches her stance. She wraps her aura around her dagger. At the same time, Sotia also wraps her sword in an aura.
“I have to win. Win and win You have to keep your position as chief.”
That was Irina Blood’s words. She happened to hear about her family by chance while following her brother. My older brother was fighting a lonely fight while confronting her family. To protect me, she was sacrificing herself. Such a person will collide with the family in the early future.
When that time comes, we must apologize for the past and fight against the family that has caused great pain to us. You must become the strength of your brother. To do that, you have to be stronger than anyone else. Can’t lose in a place like this Irina Blood must be flawless. For the most precious person.
The resolution made Irina’s aura even sharper.
“Irina. I can feel your determination. I’m sorry, but I can’t give up on this game either. I will win this match and take one step closer to my dream.”
“If you can’t yield, I will take it by force!”
Irina ran out towards Sotia. With her movements as light as a feather, a voice of admiration erupted from the audience. Sotia Sonia spreads her legs to lower her stance and prepares to take her Irina.
The distance between the two of them has narrowed to the point where they can reach each other with just an outstretched hand. It was Irina who extended her sword first. To defend her dagger from Irina, Sotia also throws out a sword wrapped in an aura.
Kang!
With the heavy sound of aura and aura colliding. A shock wave occurs. The strength of the aura is almost equal. Experts will predict that this balance will be maintained for a long time. But the equilibrium collapsed in an instant.
“What, what!”
“Take it!”
Irina twists her dagger, knocking Sotia’s sword away. Sotia’s sword, which was wrapped in an aura, cut through the air and the movement increased. Irina spurred her ground and thrust her sword at Sotia. Right before she gets hit by Irina’s sword. A picture is drawn in Sotia Sonia’s mind.
The appearance of a dignified knight protecting Woros, who graduated from the academy and became a tycoon. Woros, who boasted that he would become a tycoon. Sotia never doubted his words. My role is to protect the person who became a big player.
Sotia thinks. It’s enough for me to be stabbed and fatally wounded if I get hit by the sword instead of him. Thinking so, Sotia flashes her eyes, kicks the ground with her foot, and throws her body aside.
Because of the forced change of direction, an unpleasant scream echoed from Sotia’s joints. However, Sotia Sonia’s expression did not distort in the slightest. Her eyes are fixed on two words: victory.
It was Sotia who turned her body abruptly, but Irina had already reached out to her and it was too late for her to turn back.
Cheak!ㅡ
Irina’s sword grazes Sotia’s side. Sotia’s clothes are torn and blood splatters. But she didn’t even go mortal because she was literally scratched.
“I will win!!”
“This, this—”
From noble mtl dot com
Paak!ㅡ
“Cheer!”
Sotia’s shield hit Irina’s face as it was. Blood spurts from Irina’s face as she touches her shield. As it was, Sotia pushed back her shield and blew Irina away.
Kung!ㅡ Kooung!ㅡ
With Sotia’s powerful attack, the audience is extremely excited. Irina flies off and rolls on her floor before getting up from her seat. Her blood runs from her nose.
“Ugh… I did it.”
“I told you I couldn’t yield.”
“Kuh… I said take it by force.”
Seizing her victory, Sotia jumps out at Irina and swings her sword. But Irina sheds her sword with her ridiculous reflexes. The battle continues like that several times.
Sotia repeats the straining motions on her joints to dodge her Irina’s attack. Irina is cut several times by Sotia’s sword and is struck by her shield.
It seemed like it was not even, but it was an equal battle. It was Irina who landed an overwhelming number of attacks. However, Sotia uses her unique defensive technique to block or brush the damage. Then, he hits Irina with an honest shot.
Irina, who has weak stamina but is fast, attacks a lot and gets hit minimally. However, her stamina is weak, so the damage from being beaten by Sotia makes her body dull.
On the other hand, Sotia starts getting more and more wounds from her sword, and her legs start to tremble as her damage builds up and builds up.
Kang!ㅡ Kung!ㅡ
“Heo Eok… Heo-eok… “
“Haa… Ugh.”
How many minutes had passed like that? It was a full blown window. Both of them seemed to have reached their limits. The tumultuous arena becomes as quiet as a library in the desperate yet high-level battles of two representatives of Melgard’s freshmen. The audience swallows saliva, clenches both fists, and concentrates on the game.
Except for occasional hyperventilation from the crowd, who forgot to breathe, the only sounds echoing through the arena were Irina and Sotia’s heavy breathing and the sounds of battle. What supported Irina and Sotia was their bright future with a man.
The fear of not being able to face that future if you collapse. Inspire them
Two students hit their limit like that. When anyone was about to launch an attack that could be called the final blow.
Kung!
The game is stopped by the sudden sound of the janggu. Sotia and Irina froze as they were about to swing their swords. The two women were only breathing hard, sweat and blood pouring out.
ㅡ『The time limit is over. Therefore, this match is a draw.”
Declaration of a draw by the host. Irina and Sotia reap their swords. At the same time, tremendous cheers from the audience ring the arena. It was a roar of scale, as if an earthquake had occurred.
As the moderator continues to say that Irina and Sotia showed a match worthy of Melgard’s representative, a green light begins to emanate from Sotia and Irina’s bodies. The healers from the organizers of the match used healing magic at the same time.
Sotia, who was receiving her healing magic, knocked her butt and fell behind her. Irina, who was approaching Sotia, fell to her side.
ㅡ『In this match, both sides are winners. With Irina Blood, who showed a great match. Please applaud student Sotia Sonia!!』
Amid tremendous applause, the match without a loser came to an end.
