Chapter 224: The Sword of Dignity
February 4th, seven o'clock in the morning
"Ahh
No one laughed at his timid behavior, because most of them were like him, and they all wiped their sweat in unison, some on their foreheads, and some on their clothes
"Wait, there's no need to be so afraid," Kishu forcibly comforted himself, "After all, he is also Louise's demon, as long as Louise gives you an order."
"Louise indifferently raised Hiraga Cairen's hand "The stripe of the contract is on his hand, Chong will not obey my orders"
"Ahhhhh!!hh Kishu clutched his head and screamed
"Don't panic, he doesn't stipulate the number of people anyway" Several seniors in the senior year suddenly stood up and said, "To put it bluntly, it's just a demon, and it's impossible to fight with the nobles."
"Don't keep repeating your nobility here, okay!" Hiraga said angrily, "The nobles must be better than us? β
"It's just that civilians who didn't even dare to say anything just now dare to accuse us?! Could it be that he gave you this guts?! A burly young man stepped forward, "Believe it or not, we'll be fine if we kill you now?!" β
"Boom!" When Hiraga mustered up the courage to speak, someone outside had already opened his mouth for him, and an isowaist-wide stone plate flew in from outside, and then hit the opponent's head impartially
"Ahhh!!hhh The other party immediately covered his head and screamed on the ground
"That's right, I didn't stipulate the number, you nobles will attack in swarms like locusts" Chong Leng coldly patted the dust on his hands, "Of course, your end will be the same as locusts, no one will be left"
"If you still have a sense of honor, don't do anything to him, unless you really have lost all your shame" Chong casually threw a bag of things in front of Hiraga Cairen "Biscuits, make do with them"
"The duel in the afternoon, I'm waiting for you" Chong turned to leave
"Sha" More than a dozen third-graders stood up, and then looked at each other silently
"Go," the leader said coldly, and then the others followed him away
The biscuits in the "Ka" bag were crushed, and no one looked at Hiraga again
"Click" Hiraga gritted his teeth, and then didn't say a word
Ten o'clock at noon
"Can't you find it," Louise squatted on the edge of the flower bed with her hands on her knees, "It's almost time, if you don't tell him to cancel the duel"
"Chong won't listen," Hiraga sat down next to Louise, "He will never tolerate such an insult, but I do want to persuade him again, otherwise something will happen"
"Is he like that in your world?" Louise asked
"Well, I don't usually provoke him, so I don't know, but he shouldn't have changed," Hiraga gave an ambiguous answer
"No one provokes that, I see" Louise raised her head from her knees, "dog, go and look for him, no matter what, I will apologize for him, after all, it is also my responsibility to not discipline the demons"
"When Chong heard this, he would definitely beat you, maybe he would take off your skirt and snap it."
"What such a faux pas!" Louise blushed and waved her hand indiscriminately, "No! My mother said you can't do this until you're married! β
"Did you misunderstand something? I'm talking about spanking."
"Get out of here and find someone!!" Louise was completely fried
Two and a half hours later
"Louise Francis Lou Brown du la Vallière" was stopped from behind
"Senior Xiulandar of Stardust, what's the matter with you?" Louise looked back in an unkind tone
"Do you need to talk about that? Of course, I want you to tell me where your demon duel is going to be" he said, "Westley Square, it's half an hour later, we'll wait twenty minutes at most, if he doesn't come, then he'll need to apologize, and of course you'll too"
"I'll let you know," Louise replied coldly, "but I didn't expect you, as a border guard, to gather more than a dozen people to fight with Chong."
"That's because he's so arrogant!" There was a furious roar like flames from behind, "I will give your family a face, we will not kill him when the time comes, at most let him rest for a year"
"Marshall of Lava, you really lost your father's face," Lu Yi said with merciless disdain, "Presumably, as a royal servant, he will be so ashamed that he will kill himself after hearing about this!" β
"You're hard-mouthed now, sue you first, if he loses, then you will also be punished~" There was a laugh from the crowd, "You want to dance at our celebration banquet~"
"You frivolous fellow!" Louise exasperated, "Don't think that your father is Chancellor of the Exchequer and can do whatever he wants, Haru of Mercury! β
"Anyway, we wait for him, of course, if he wins, then from now on, everyone in our third year will have a twelve-point respect for you and your demons," Shulandar said indifferently, "I hope he doesn't just pay lip service"
"Let's go" With his shout, more than a dozen third-year students around him got out of the way, and there was also a figure of Jixiu among them
"I'm sorry, things seem to be getting bigger," Kishu whispered as he passed by Louise, "Anyway, I'll find a way to keep things from getting worse, and you can persuade your demons again."
"I believe in him, so I'm not going to stop him anymore" Louise looked away, then turned away, "It's a matter of honor and dignity for both of us, but I'm not going to let him die"
"Because he is my demon, I will never let him die in front of me"
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ clenched his sword
"Tsk" Chong let out a gasp of dissatisfaction, "Who are you?"
"Balam, the fifty-first pillar of the seventy-two demon gods," said the ugly man with a scar in front of him, "how? Do you still want to fight? β
"Of course, I want to say this, but I'm afraid I don't have the strength to compete with the demon god" Chong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "It seems that you are not a fake that inherited his name"
"No one like me would choose to inherit my surname," he said in a hoarse voice that didn't match his appearance, "Don't worry, I'm just delaying you for a while"
"Could it be that there are people in that group who can use the demon god-level envoys?" Chong sneered, "That's really terrible"
"No kidding, those people don't even have the qualifications to be my dependents," he sat down on the ground as if he was tired, "By the way, have you ever heard of Daintrian's bookshelf?" β
βοΌβ Chong was stunned for a moment because of the sudden question, but he immediately answered his question, "I've heard that it is said to be a fantasy bookshelf that stores the original books of the world, and the only sighting report was on July 13, 1920, in a wooden house on the outskirts of England."
"Well, that's right," he said, standing up again, "my lord is interested in your future, and is therefore going to give you a few things."
"For now, please forgive me for not accompaniing, because I have something that needs to be done urgently," Chong said indifferently, "so please get out of the way immediately"
"If you've read the history of this land, you know the names of the Three Dukes," he continued, as if he hadn't heard
"Blimir, a symbol of knowledge, Andandis a symbol of inheritance, and Ludiab a symbol of nothingness," said Chong, "And then? Could it be that your lord is one of them? β
"They're all dead long ago, but my lord is indeed the Magister who inherited the name of one of them," he yawned, "No, I should say that I inherited all the status and treasures of all three."
"Now that Lord wants to give you a portion of the treasure he has, which will make you stronger than you are now," he spoke again, "How about giving up the sword and learning magic from now on?" If so, then you can get the so-called Magical Originals."
"The library of knowledge, the inheritance of the contract, and the weapons of nothingness, are you satisfied with this deal?" came a sound from the void, a voice that would send chills down his spine
"Sure enough, it's you, since you're here in person, then how can I refuse again," Chong bit his lip to prevent his teeth from chattering
"Then let's start immediately, it won't take long, at least you can catch up with the finish" Chongyi stepped into the air, and then fell into the subspace
"Would it be nice to lend him those books as you like, my lord?"
"Why can't what is left of the dead be put to good use? Although the guy Brimir has already left the bookshelf to others, he must not mind borrowing it for a while" He said indifferently, "Since you want to give it, give the best, I don't need imperfect things"
"I'm going to go to the Black Tower to get her wand Balam, and I'll get back to the castle at once, and bring my deed with me," he ordered, "and be quick, at least get it before he comes out"
"Follow your orders, then may I ask if you want me to go to war instead of him?"
"What are you kidding, it's just sheep that don't know how thick the sky is, and it's too wasteful to let the lion hunt" He played with the mark in his hand, "Isn't there another human being brought here?"
"Just give him the title of Tsunadaruff and play around, and then let him take the place of the Hound in this boring battle"
"If it's good," he curled the corners of his mouth slightly, "maybe I can give him the extra sword."
"That elven longsword Drew Linger?! That's a treasure no less than the Three Holy Swords."
"Don't worry, sooner or later it will be retracted, there is no warrior in the world who can control that magic sword" He closed the gap in space
"I'm just a second insurance"
One o'clock in the afternoon
"Why haven't you come yet? Ran away? β
"Cut, it looks like he's just a big talker."
"Yawn~ Everyone is gone~ Go back and wait to see Louise dance~" There was a continuous sound of slander in the square
"Louise, why don't you go to Chong?!" Hiraga said angrily, "Don't you believe him?!" β
"I can't allow such a thing as choosing to be injured for the sake of so-called dignity," Louise said lightly, "whether it is victory or defeat, the result will not change in any way, nobles will still be nobles, commoners will still be commoners, in that case, why risk your life for this?" β
"Yes"
"Okay" Louise took a deep breath, "accompany me to apologize, and then I'll go back and prepare the costume, it's just dancing, and they don't dare to let me do anything more"
(Why are you so weak?) Hiraga Clenched His Fists at Louise's Word (Why...... Will you choose to accept their insults?! οΌ
"Hey!" Hiraga didn't understand why he suddenly spoke, maybe it was just impulsive, but he did anyway, and he didn't intend to back down
"Huh?" Several people looked at him, "Civilian, what do you want to do?" β
"This battle is not going to come to the appointment," Hiraga continued
"Hahahaha! It turned out that I was scared and asked you to pass the word on my behalf! Marshall laughed and said, "Okay, it's a little upset, but it's a good thing that he's become well-behaved, so let him kneel down first."
"Because we both feel that you are not qualified enough to let Chong make a move," Hiraga sneered, "I'll be enough for one person."
"Hey!! What are you talking about?! If one is stupid, do you need two to come together?!! Louise panicked, "Stand back now!" β
"It's you who should step down, Louise," said Hiraga Shoto, "or I won't be able to give it my all."
"What!"
"He's right, Louise Francis Lou Brown du la Vallière" said Thulandal indifferently, "The time has come, and the sacred duel cannot be defiled by anyone"
"It's a shame that you can memorize Louise's name in one go," Hiraga grinned, and then pushed away the crowd and broke into the empty space in the middle of the square
"I take back the preface, you can be regarded as courageous" Shulandar nodded, "In order to reward this courage, let's go one-on-one first"
"Then let me come to the bronze foundation"
"Shut up, do you think I can't see that you want to show mercy" Xiu Langdal turned back dissatisfiedly and said, "Look quietly, I'll come to him one-on-one"
"Hiraga is it? My nickname is Stardust, and I'm good at earthy and windy magic" Shurondar pulled out a long sword from his waist, which seemed to be the kind of soft sword that was rarely seen on the market
"Another name? Well, that sounds cool," Hiraga nodded, then clenched his fists, "Then I'm on it!!! β
"Empty-handed? Just kidding, right? The crowd of onlookers around was surprised
"Hmph," Xiu Langdal said, "Nice momentum"
"But it's still not enough to see me as a reserve guard!" Shurondal snorted coldly
"Flash!" Hiraga only noticed a point of light, and then something had pierced his left foot
"Boom!" Hiraga fell to his knees because he couldn't stand the pain
"As I said, I'm the Stardust Shurundal, a magic swordsman who is taught by the shining Varudo" Shurundar wiped the blood from the tip of the sword, this is just an ordinary stabbing blow that blesses the wind, and if you bless the earth, then the attack will not be a "point" but a "face"
"Can you still stand up, even if you stand up, you can't get a step closer to me?"
"Of course," Hiraga stood up, covering his left foot, "it's okay!" β
"Very good," Shurondal nodded, "then I will continue to attack"
The two blows of the "second flash" at the same time, and Hiraga Cairen, who had just maintained his balance, was attacked again, this time with his right foot
"Woohoo!" Hiraga only felt that his feet were as heavy as lead
"I've used a little bit of earth magic," Shurondal said indifferently, "Tiny clods of earth will swell when they get into the bones, but don't worry, it won't affect future actions, yes, just take them out quickly"
"That guy is still the same, that kind of gentle personality will make people think that he is insulting" Marshall smacked his lips, "If I let me go, that civilian can leave the field immediately"
"It's too strong," Kishu stood aside at a loss, "what should I do?" As long as you don't die, there should be no problem, right? β
"I won't quit now!" Hiraga stood up tremblingly, "Come again!" β
"For the sake of glory" Shulandar pulled a second soft sword from his waist and stuck it on the ground
"Grab your sword, and come and fight me again," said Thulandal, "or my victory will not be perfect."
"Looking for death" He just flew back from the outside world and snorted coldly, "How dare you give a weapon"
"Good!" Hiraga wanted to hold the sword
"No! Absolutely not! If you pick up this sword, then he will never let you go," but his outstretched right hand was stopped by Louise
"Am I no longer in my world? Is it the only way to live here from now on? He said as if talking to himself
"There may only be two Otherworldly people here, so you need one person to support yourself, and of course I will."
"Yes, but what's going on? It doesn't matter at all! Louise held the hand of the talented man tightly, "Don't be hurt for no reason!" It's not like I can't feed you! β
"So do you mean to say you don't need dignity? Even if you are insulted like a brute, you are still indifferent? β
"It's okay to make a demon, it's okay if you can't sleep in a bed, it doesn't matter if the food is not delicious, I'll wash your underwear for you, in order to survive, there's no way to do this!"
After saying these words, the cairen clenched his left fist hard
"No one is born destined to rule"
"But"
"But what?" Louise couldn't help but ask
"I'm the only one who won't bow my head!" The genius held the sword
"Perfect" he curled the corners of his mouth, "interesting, so that people are interested in using it"
"Then" is like throwing a stone under the ripples, and he gives something to Hiraga that should not be given to him
"Youβthe new Tsunadaruff," he whispered
The left hand of God is the hounds of God, which is something he hates
"Now that you have a tight grip on your sword, you must be prepared to be slaughtered," he casually opened a gap in space
βοΌοΌοΌβ The green light on the back of his hand was magnificent, and Hiraga felt the touch of a new life the moment he clenched his sword
"Huh" Pinghe danced a sword flower casually, incredible, this was obviously his first time in contact with such a thing, but now he has a feeling of being one with it
βοΌβ Shurondal also noticed the changes that had taken place in front of him, so he clenched his sword again
"Three flashes!" Three points of light struck his right hand
I saw it all clearly, it wasn't a superb skill, it was just a telescopic sword
"Boom!" Hiraga inserted the tip of the sword into the gap between the sword, and with a little force, he disassembled the soft sword into several pieces
"What!" Shurondal was stunned for a moment, and in this gap, Hiraga had already put his sword around his neck
"You lost," Hiraga said in an almost nonchalant tone
"Huh!" Before Shurondal could react, dozens of third-year students behind him raised their wands at the same time
"Wait!" Shurondal hurriedly dissuaded, "I'm still here"
"Netherworld's fangs devour a qiΔ" When Louise was sluggish and the people around her had no time to heal her, someone in the air was chanting a spell
"The Sinking Earth Afflicts the Lost"
"The vines are dried up, the sweet springs are dried up, and those who have two hearts will perish"
"The Hellish Cry of the Trust - Activation Complete"
βοΌοΌοΌοΌβ Dozens of black figures like hands grabbed them, and then sank to the ground, as if trying to drag them underground and drown
"Do you admit defeat?" asked Chong after landing steadily
"Throw in the towel! We throw in the towel! They hurriedly begged for mercy
"Lift" Chong snapped his fingers
"It's really a hero, it's always the last to arrive," Hiraga fell into a coma
"Because we have to give time to the real brave to perform," Chong whispered, "Not bad"
"Your dignity and personality, no one will dare to take it away anymore"
