Chapter 101: The Fire Blade Returns Home
In the mountain camp of the Fireblade Clan, Izzy stood on a high platform and shouted loudly:
"I am now your new chieftain because I killed your former chieftain Darl Triple Bloodblade in a glorious duel of Margora at the celebration of the Khishhag Festival. β
After Izzy finished speaking, he glanced at the fireblade orcs below, they seemed a little restless, Izzy raised his hand to signal quiet, and continued:
"I can see that some of you are not convinced, thinking that how can I, a junior, and a child, be able to take on the heavy responsibility of a chieftain, so now I give you a chance, unconvinced orcs, stand up and be subdued by me!
After Izzy finished speaking, he waited silently.
After the end of Keshhag, he followed the ranks of the Fireblade Clan back to this mountain camp of the Fireblade Clan, and now he will be challenged to complete the test and become the true chief of the Fireblade Clan.
"I'm coming!" shouted one of Dahl's former Blood Guards.
Izzy waited for the warrior to get ready, took the greatsword from his back, and swung it twice, causing a gust of wind to blow, and the Blood Guard's face immediately changed dramatically, and he looked a little afraid.
Yushuro glanced at the two of them and whispered, "Begin!"

The battle ended in the first moment, Izzy swept over with his sword, the orc blood guard raised his axe to block, and then was directly slapped by Izzy with a sword on the high platform, the person spit out a mouthful of blood in the air, and it didn't get up when it landed, Mentor Artur went up to check it, the injury was not serious, the orc just fainted because of the impact on the head.
Izzy looked at the blood-vomiting orc, and suddenly froze for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face.
It's ridiculous to say that Izzy has gained something in such a battle, and he knows how he should continue to train in the future.
Originally, Izzy planned to knock this orc away with one blow, so that he could land uninjured and retreat, but now under the blow, he directly hit him with a slight injury and fell unconscious, it is obvious that his attack lacks control.
In the past, Izzy has always trained to be fast and accurate, and in the future, he plans to strengthen his control, whether it is speed, strength, or accuracy, Izzy hopes that he can train to the extent that no matter what kind of attack can be retracted and released freely, and he can be handy.
Izzy feels that in battle, not every attack is the best way to fight, more often, what is needed is control, strong when it should be strong, fast when it should be fast, this is the better way to fight in Izzy's mind, it feels like a marathon long-distance run, the runners who can win are often those who know the limits of their bodies, control their bodies to run at a constant speed, and break out when they need to sprint at the end, the kind of runners who run desperately at the beginning, and must be tired like dogs in the end. (Excuse me?)
Izzy asked the orc to heal his wounds, and continued to stand on the high platform and wait, with this opening statement, those who want to go on stage again are either really powerful or really stupid.
"I'll try!"
Izzy looked at the orc who spoke, it was a respected veteran warrior of the Fireblade Clan, a generation of Artur's mentor, named Loctus.
The old orc walked up to the high platform and saluted Izzy beating his chest, Izzy straightened his attitude and saluted the venerable veteran in return, the two sides were preparing, Izzy closed his eyes, sensed the devouring divine soldier, and the giant sword turned into a two-handed war knife with Izzy's mind.
In the face of experienced veterans, Izzy did not dare to hold it up, his greatsword is more suitable for spreading fear to the enemy on the battlefield, or used to deal with those large giant beasts Goron, in a heads-up duel, he wields the greatsword to attack quickly enough, and the range of action is large, against such a veteran, it is still slightly insufficient.
"The battle begins!"
Izzy carefully chooses defense, waiting for the opponent to attack first, facing the old soldier who does not understand and must have more combat experience than himself, recklessly taking the lead in attacking, but it is easy to expose his own flaws.
A warrior who can survive to old age in countless battles has already honed his skills to the pinnacle, and Izzy doesn't want to be slaughtered because of a flaw.
Seeing that Izzy had no intention of making the first move, Loctus first smiled, then roared angrily, and then launched a charge, and the battle axe in both hands with an afterimage slashed straight at Izzy.
Izzy swung his knife at the falling tomahawk, and the swords and axes struck each other, and the dazzling sparks exploded, and Izzy's hands went numb, and the blow made him feel a little uncomfortable, and Loctus took two steps back to stabilize himself.
Izzy realized that this was an opportunity, and immediately approached the slashing sword, and the back of the war knife in his hand swept under the old warrior's ribs, just at the moment when Izzy's attack was about to touch the old orc's body, Izzy suddenly noticed a trace of detail, the old orc's eyes were calm, and the corners of his mouth even curled slightly, revealing a smile.
In the flash of light, Izzy withdrew a bit of strength, but the attack still could not be completely withdrawn, Loctus sideways with a thick back armor against Ichi's knife back attack, and then turned around and swept, the two-handed tomahawk fiercely slashed, Izzy retracted a point of strength, so that he could withdraw the knife in time, blocking the attack of the tomahawk, the huge anti-shock force, the shocked Izzy took several steps back to stabilize his body.
The old warrior did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, he looked at Izzy with disdain, and sneered:
"Boy, I don't need your mercy, you're not my chieftain yet, and if you want to insult me, I'll show you what it takes. β
Izzy didn't speak, he directly raised his knife and launched a charge, he was ashamed to say, in terms of physique, the young and strong Izzy had an advantage, and the old orc's body had begun to age, so Izzy was ready to use his strengths and avoid weaknesses to maximize his physical advantages, after all, the gap in skills could not be made up for in a moment.
Izzy's war knife, from top to bottom, slashed up like a mountain cracked stone, the old orc dodged Izzy's attack sideways, adjusted his posture in an instant, and collided up, Izzy immediately blocked it with a horizontal knife, the old orc saw that he couldn't do anything, and immediately changed his collision to swing the axe, Izzy's eyes changed, and he swung his knife to meet it.
The knife and axe touched again, and another dazzling spark was stirred, and the old orc was shocked and took a few steps back, while Izzy prioritized his body and stepped forward, swinging his knife and slashing smoothly.
At the last moment, the old orc wanted to use the power of the shock to accelerate back to dodge, but Izzy took advantage of the length of the knife and continued to slash hard, Izzy's knife tip was almost close to the old orc's chest, and slashed up, but at the last moment, Izzy finally hesitated and slashed a little slower.
The old orc dodged Izzy's attack, and immediately roared angrily, and the anti-guest was the main one, and pasted up, and the tomahawk continued to chop, like an endless wave, and the Izzy was in danger, and he could only parry, and he had no power to fight back.
Izzy's actions seemed to infuriate the old orc, and he roared and cursed:
"Naive wolf cub, you still want to be a chieftain like this, go back to your mother's arms, and go to nurse!"
Yushuro on the side sighed, but any warrior with a hint of vision could see the last trace of Izzy's hesitation, in the eyes of the orcs, this was indeed an unforgivable insult.
Izzy was embarrassed to block the old orc's attack, constantly forced to retreat, gradually approaching the edge of the high platform, the old orc's accusation, bombarded in Izzy's heart, he was a little ashamed, in the orc's concept, when dueling, not doing his best, it was an insult to his opponent, and Izzy knew this, or couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.
The right heel stepped into the air, and Izzy immediately knew that he had no way to retreat, he mustered up all his strength, roared angrily, and the prosthetic leg of his right hand suddenly slapped the axe blade away with his backhand, and under the nose of the surprised old orc, he crashed into the arms of the old orc, and Locktus was immediately knocked back several steps.
The old orc gritted his teeth and wanted to continue attacking, but in the next moment, Ichi stabbed the tip of the knife into the old orc's abdomen, and the war knife entered the body, the old orc looked at Izzy with a look of relief, put his palm on Ichi's shoulder, and whispered:
"Thank you. β
Izzy pulled out the blade, feeling a little sad in his heart, he couldn't be ruthless after all, the blade did pierce the old orc's body, but the stab was not deep, and Izzy deliberately avoided the old orc's main organs and arteries.
Being able to do this is due to the last ogre war, after the war, Izzy made a cameo appearance for a period of time, as a field doctor, he treated a lot of seriously injured orcs, which also gave Izzy a very full understanding of the body structure of orcs, of course, such a dangerous move, Izzy was not sure that the old orcs would survive.
Mentor Artur treats Loctus, and the old orc falls unconscious, as if he doesn't want to wake up.
It suddenly occurred to Izzy that he was not a pure orc after all, and that he had lived on Earth for more than twenty years and received that education had made him unable to understand this spirit of longing to die in battle.
Isn't it good to be able to lie in bed and die peacefully under the gaze of your children and grandchildren?
Izzy wondered, realizing that he hadn't aged and couldn't experience the feeling of aging, perhaps it was an extremely painful process for a warrior, and it might not be for nothing that the orcs considered aging a shameful thing.
Trying to understand, Izzy wiped the blood from his mouth, walked back onto the high platform, and said in a loud voice:
"Next!"
The fireblade orcs remained silent and silent, until one of the orcs suddenly shouted loudly:
"A real chief!"
The orcs began to shout in unison.
Izzy finally officially became the chief of the Fireblade Clan, and he raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and shouted loudly:
"Now, come home with me!
In the next few days, I will try to change three times a day and ask for a double monthly pass, thank you!
