Xia Zuo, who sideways dodged Grim's shoulder impact, circled his back and counterattacked with a shoulder collision, pushing Grim on the back.

The force seemed to be equal to the force of the impact that Xia Zuo should have inflicted on Grim, who lost his balance and fell forward, half-kneeling on the ground.

"Grim!" The two attendants hurried to help.

"That..."Xia Zuo could move again, he raised his hand at a loss, not knowing what to say.

"Don't touch me!" Grim dodged his companion and stood up from the ground, looking back at Xia Zuo with bloodshot eyes, "What did you do!?" How dare you make the first swordsman of Liv Village kneel on the ground!? ”

Although he had a clear conscience, Xia Zuo still didn't want to provoke the other party, just considered lucky, and found that the counterattack matched the opponent's attack, if Grim made the next move to ask Xia Zuo's life, then Xia Zuo also had to fight back to ask for the other party's life.

Is this really uncontrollable? Xia Zuo clenched his fists, and for the first time, he felt that there were many inconveniences in automatic dodging and counterattacking.

"Wow..." The sound of drawing the sword interrupted Xia Zuo's thinking, what he didn't want to happen still happened, Grim slowly pulled out the long sword on his back, held it with both hands and faced Xia Zuo, and shouted solemnly: "Duel with me!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xia Zuo waved his hand to ask Jobs to retreat farther away.

"Grim... I said that the village chief would..."

"Shut up!" Grim stopped his companion's persuasion, and his eyes were fixed on Xia Zuo as he spoke, "What about the village chief?" The duel is completely in accordance with the laws of the Andu Kingdom, and the village chief is just using his mood to restrain us... Humiliating the great swordsman, the swordsman had no choice but to seek justice by winning the battle, or I would be ashamed of my reputation as a swordsman. ”

His companions knew his character, though he had no real reputation...... Since he was a child, Grim has eliminated a lot of small monsters for the village, and he has not tasted defeat, and the reason for not tasting defeat is that he has not left the village much, and he has not fought against the slightly more powerful Horf blacksmith... But it didn't prevent him from seeing his status as an invincible swordsman, so the two companions didn't say anything more, and stepped back under the pull of one of them.

"Really, it's hard for me to do this with you..."Xia Zuo took a step back, if only he could run away, but the other party was so strong that he couldn't even run a goblin.

Rather than saving his life, Xia Zuo wanted to save the other party's life, and in the face of the sharp blade, he didn't draw his sword, if he pulled out his sword to fight back, it would only speed up the death process of the other party.

"Hey, what should I do?" The fat man whispered, tugging at the thin man's sleeve.

"You... You watch here," the thin man rolled his eyes, "there is no one on the scene who is Grim's opponent, and if the stranger dies, we will not be able to get out of it, I will go to the village chief, only he can stop Grim." ”

"Oh! Go, go! He pushed urgingly.

"Grim McAvoy," Grim said to himself, with a straightened posture, "according to the etiquette of a duel, tell me your name, Outlander... It seems like they've all called you, but I haven't written it down. ”

"Xia Zuo." He said in a soothing tone, he couldn't escape, so he had to find a way to appease the other party, "Listen, I didn't mean to do that just now..."

"Xia Zuo, don't you have a family name?" Grim didn't listen to what was going on, he asked, and raised his sword above his head.

"The surname Xia is left, and the family name is "Xia".

"The way people from the Eastern Continent are named, sure enough, just look at your face and know that you are not from the Maine Continent... Then Xia Zuo, pull out your sword and let you taste the unique Grim genre I created, which can kill the big bear in two pieces with one blow. ”

"Isn't that posture just an ordinary New Year's swordsmanship?" As he spoke, Xia Zuo shook his head and resolutely did not draw his sword, "And what is there to boast about being able to deal with Nobita, Nobita is just a primary school student who can't be beaten by a fat tiger..."

Xia Zuo suddenly stopped, and patted his head inwardly, didn't he say that he wanted to appease the other party? What are you doing behind the scenes!?

Sure enough, it backfired, and Grim got angry, and he bared his teeth.

"Insulting my identity, and insulting my swordsmanship, I can't ignore it, although you don't draw your sword, it doesn't matter, as long as the dueling sides report each other's names, then the battle has already begun, this time is just the mercy I give you."

“……”

"This is a duel witnessed by the gods, and my faith is Mori, the god of wood, and my teachings and piety will guide me—to fulfill the wish of my mortal enemy, as long as that request is not against our interests." Grim suppressed his anger and looked very serious for a moment, "Tell me what your request is, Outlander, and I will do it after you die, and you only have one chance to tell." ”

Grim has no intention of killing the opponent, but he must first crush the opponent in terms of momentum and make the enemy's inner defense fragile.

"Can you bring me back to life, then?"

Grim shook his head, indicating that it could not be achieved...... Looking at the other party's fiery expression, he didn't take his words seriously!

"Ah——!h Grim roared, jumped forward and swung his sword down.

"I didn't say that the New Year's swordsmanship is not good!" The attack came suddenly, Xia Zuo hurriedly appeased, and every word was read quickly in his mouth, "The New Year's sword technique is my favorite sword technique!" It's very handsome..."

But it was too late, and the body entered an automatic state, but somehow, obviously empty-handed, he automatically stretched out his sword and drew his sword, and with a flash of cold light, Xia Zuo exposed the gray and white wolf tooth one-handed sword in front of everyone.

That sword is so thin, this is the first impression of Grim, it is so thin that it will definitely break if it can't withstand the sword in both hands, so it will send his sword to death with one blow, and then send him to lie on the hospital bed.

But in the next moment, Grim began to feel furious inside, and Lv5's Xia Zuo held a wolf's tooth one-handed sword, and the passive effect of the sword was generated, bringing deterrence to Lv15's Grim.

Although Xia Zuo's level was lower, this deterrent still existed, which was enough to make Grim's attack less categorical, he hesitated, the speed of the sword was half a beat slower, and the sword aimed at Xia's left shoulder was offset, slashing towards his left arm.

This time, Xia Zuo didn't dodge with a big move, but just a neat diagonal one-handed sword in his left hand, which made Grim's sword erase the spark on the one-handed sword, and was finally easily bounced away by the sword grid, deflecting the path.

Grim also slashed his sword to the ground, and his body shook forward and lost his balance, and he suddenly did not recover.

Xia Zuo began to counterattack, throwing the one-handed sword to his right hand in front of Grim, clenching it, and stabbing at Grim's throat as he moved forward.

If this continues, the other party will die!

"No way!" Xia Zuo shouted, almost using all his consciousness to control himself and stop himself.

But the arm is still straight, and the thrust is completed.

"Huh~Huh"

"Whew... Whew"

The sound of two nervous breaths alternated, and Xia Zuo, who was covered in a cold sweat, found that the sword had been stabbed off, and only brushed the edge of Grim's neck, causing an inconsequential skin wound.

Grim was also nervous, restless and gasping, just when he found that Xia Zuo was stabbing mercilessly like death, he really thought that he was done playing, and he had never felt so close to the ghost gate.

"Me, it worked!?" Xia Zuopo laughed, and at this moment the control of his body was in his hands again, "I just interfered with the counterattack, with my own will!" ”

Xia Zuo put the sword back into the sheath, smiled with a smile on his face, and said excitedly to Grim.

At this point, Grim did not launch a second attack, or even regain his attacking stance.

The deterrence of the wolf's one-handed sword, and the sense of consciousness that he had just "died", made him lose all his fighting intent at the moment, and he didn't feel Xia Zuo's murderous aura at all, Xia Zuo wanted to be a happy passerby, and he had nothing to do with him.

Grim pulled out his sword from the shallow pit in the ground and retracted it from his back, and in the process, he had already seen that the side blade that had just slashed through the opponent's one-handed sword had been cut into a shallow gap.

"Heh..."He laughed self-deprecatingly, it seemed that the other party's sword was the same as the other party, and it was strong that did not match its appearance.
