Chapter 116: Leon VS Chris
When Roque and Chris Mathieu arrived, the battle between Leon and Jerich had long since ended (the corpses of the Yug soldiers and monsters killed by the Blood Demon God had already turned into blood and been absorbed by him), but a dark aura still lingered, and there was still a faint smell of blood in the air, which made Matthew very uncomfortable.

"Is this just a big battle? Such a terrible destructive power...... "Chris looked at the huge pits on the ground and the earth that had been scraped off a thick layer of earth, revealing a hint of horror.
For some reason, Roque felt an inexplicable familiarity with this dark aura.
"It must be the monster legion of the Yog Empire. I don't know which legions came here, but it looks like the battle is over. I just don't know if there are any survivors in the city, and the few towns we pass through have almost become dead cities. ”
"It's brutal. I can't imagine that just to achieve the goal of dominating the continent, I can do such a crazy thing. It's not much different from that guy in Daos. Chris lamented.
"I sense that Finn guy has stopped not far ahead, I guess he has found a place to stay, let's go over and say hello to him." Roque is now looking forward to Finn's expression when he sees him and Chris, it will definitely be very exciting.
"Then let's go into the city."
……
Teresa, a city that has just experienced the baptism of war, is famous for its "golden grilled wings", which is usually crowded with tens of thousands of people, but now it is very deserted. Those who had the foresight and the ability to do so had generally moved out of the city and sought refuge elsewhere, leaving behind either the inhabitants who were attached to it or who had nowhere else to go. If it weren't for Leon passing by, it is estimated that the city would have been turned into dust by the Blood Demon God.
"Tsk...... I didn't expect Teresa to be like this when I passed by on my travels. The Yug Empire is really harmful. Finn stood on a high platform, looking out at the streets around him that had long since ceased to be bustling.
"It's not just here that happens. It was only a matter of time before any country that did not agree with the unification policy of the Yug Empire would suffer such a blow. One of Finn's teammates said.
"Actually, for me, it's the same no matter which country rules it. Anyway, they are a group of incompetent people, except for bullying and hiding all day long, they don't care at all when the people are in danger, in the final analysis, they only care about themselves, who cares about the lives and deaths of others. Finn thought of his parents who were still praying to God and Buddha all day long, and his face was gloomy.
"The problem is to get more benefits, and now we have to do the same thing as them. But they are singing black faces, we are singing white faces. Someone let out a mocking laugh.
"Alright, that's enough! The above things are not something we can change, we just need to complete the task and get our share of the reward. Now we are in a position that is very close to the capital of the Duchy of Clinston, and it is estimated that it will take a lot of work to enter the capital in the next words, so let's rest while we still have a chance to rest, and we will probably have to fight the monster army tomorrow, and ...... Negotiating with stupid aristocrats is also a lot of work. Finn flipped through the manual and began to plan how to get the most out of it.
And next to Finn, Leon sat in a box, and next to him sat the smiling Mars City Lord.
Leon glanced at Mars beside him and gave the eviction order: "You can go out." ”
"Okay, okay, Lord Swordsman, this is the best inn in our city, and at the same time, this is the famous delicacy of our city, 'Golden Roasted Wings', please taste it, I won't bother you."
With that, Mars got up and left the box.
Despite the tempting aroma of the golden wings on the table in front of him, it could not whet Leon's appetite, for he was not a man of great food, or rather he was not interested in anything other than swordsmanship. As a guest swordsman who became a guest swordsman in the Kingdom of St. Garde at the age of 16 and has one of the best swordsmanship in the kingdom, Leon has been accompanied by swords since birth, and he will not have any fear even in the face of death. In his own words, "I'm long dead." I was dead from the moment I held the sword. Now this swordsman named Leon is an executioner who can only wield a sword to kill, a butcher's knife used to kill enemies in the hands of others, and there is no such thing as self-will."
Don't look at the fact that he easily killed the evil Blood Demon God before, it was just because the Blood Demon God happened to be in his way, not because of some ridiculous reason to draw a sword to help, so he never defined himself as a hero or a messenger of justice. If you have to say it, it is more appropriate to describe him as "spontaneous".
"Young Master."
"Huh?"
"I just ...... It seems to have sensed a ...... Very strange fluctuations. Charudier was also puzzled, this fluctuation was very similar to the fluctuation of the Guardian, but it was not all the same.
"Strange fluctuations? Which one? ”
"Uh...... I guess it's something like me.,Fluctuations in the projection of personality that resides on weapons.。 But this fluctuation I've never seen before, it's not a pair of Guardians, it's a new type. ”
"Is that so? Doesn't matter. Whether it's friend or foe, I'm not going to meet him and bond to such a ridiculous thing...... I didn't understand it at all. Leon stood up and pushed the door open, uninterested in the golden wings on the table.
At the same time, Roque and the others had already entered the city and began to look for a place to stay.
"Hey, Roque, don't you think it's a little strange here? The previous two towns were ruined and dilapidated, with few intact buildings, but here they ...... I don't see many buildings that show signs of war. Chris posed his question to Roque.
"I also think it's weird. Looking at the traces of the battle outside the city just now, there must have been a big battle here. If the Yug Empire's army had won, the buildings here would not have been able to remain so intact. In other words, if the army of the Yug Empire is defeated......"
"That's pretty unexpected."
"Yes, I really can't think of how the army of Clinstown could resist and defeat the army of the Yug Empire without foreign help. And there is not a single corpse on the battlefield yet, this is no longer a simple matter of one-sided slaughter. ”
"So, let's go to Finn and they can find out?" Chris asked looking back.
“…… I really don't want to go hot and stick a cold ass unless I have to. And he doesn't necessarily know the truth. Roque and Chris walked side by side on the empty street, and Matthew clung to the corner of Roque's coat and followed.
"Even if that's it...... Well? What's wrong? My sword is trembling? Suddenly, Chris felt the space-time magic sword in his scabbard tremble.
Chris drew his sword, only to find that the blade was much hotter than usual, and the tip of the sword began to move uncontrollably, pointing in one direction.
Chris looked in the direction the tip of the sword was pointing and saw a young man with black hair coming out of the balcony.
The eyes of the two collided in an instant.
Both sides realized something almost instantaneously.
That is, he (he) is also a recognized swordsman just like himself!
Roque also saw the black-haired young man, his mind was in chaos, countless childhood memories flooding out, the back of the man who faced the world alone, the long sword that pierced through countless powerful enemies, and finally the man who fought the final battle with Sartorius in the Labyrinth of Dragons.
Leon Magnus!
How could he possibly be here?
And is it at this point in time?
The plot characters who will not appear until the floating death capital is turned on, but now they have descended on Anais in advance, what is going on?
Questions kept coming up in Roque's mind at this time, and he had countless questions he wanted to ask the object of his childhood longing, not only about the war, but also many unspeakable words that had been buried for a long time. For a moment, Roque's heart was extremely complicated, as if you had seen a character who only appeared in legends, and this feeling of admiration and fear was indescribable.
"...... the confessor of the 'sword'?" Leon looked at this blonde and sunny youth, and saw in him a sword path that was diametrically opposed to himself, incomparably bright and absolutely righteous, the type he hated the most.
"You...... Is it also one of the otherworldly heroes summoned by the goddess? Chris didn't know what Leon meant by the Confessor of the Sword, but asked if the other party was from the same otherworld as himself.
"Oh," Leon turned his head away, "it turns out that the goddess summoned me to this world." ”
"Whew, I'm scared to death. I thought it was some new enemy. Since you are also a brave man summoned by the goddess, it is even better. What is your name? Chris breathed a sigh of relief.
"Leon."
"Leon, I think you should have a lot of questions by now, it's okay, I'll tell you some general information right away, including our enemies, the objectives that need to be completed, and the current mission ......"
"No, you don't. Whether or not I was summoned by the so-called Goddess, I don't want to and can't help you with any tasks. Because...... I don't want to be a pawn anymore. The last sentence was only heard clearly by Charudier.
"What?" Chris was incredible.
Because in his understanding, none of the brave people who came here summoned by the goddess were unwilling to help the people of this world. Even a female thief like Luty would help some civilians, so he couldn't imagine that there would be a 'brave' who refused to ask for help, this is simply an indifferent and ruthless person!
Roque stopped talking, because he knew Leon's life experience very well, and it was too normal to refuse Chris's request. But he knows better that Leon is also a man who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and as long as you can open his heart, he will be a very reliable partner.
But...... The current situation is a bit light to describe as untimely...... Roque had a headache, he didn't understand who caused the remnants of the great battle and the strong dark aura outside the city, except for Leon, who was the peak swordsman of the dark attribute.
"Leon! Although this is the first time I have known you, as a brave man, don't you have a little self-realization? Chris asked Leon with some anger.
"The brave? I'm sorry, but I never said I was a brave man. You might be more apt to describe me as a demon. Leon looked at Chris a little defiantly for some reason, perhaps with some interest in the other party.
“…… In that case, I will have to teach you by force. As you said, the one who recognizes the 'sword', although I don't know the specific meaning of this word, I know that the real swordsman who is recognized by the sword is by no means an indifferent and ruthless person like you! Chris pointed his sword at Leon, implying that he had asked Leon for a duel!
"Oh? Interesting, the swordsman of the Messenger of Justice, finally can't help but teach others a lesson? If it's a sword competition, I'm happy to do it. Leon leaped lightly, leaped high from the balcony, landed on the ground in front of Chris, and swung a sword flower to hang the sword to the ground.
Seeing that the duel between the two was about to break out, Roque knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, so he quickly picked up the confused Matthew and stepped aside, looking at the two with a worried expression.
It's not that he's worried about any serious injuries, after all, the two of them are men at the peak of the swordsman, and it's really hard to say which one is stronger or weaker, but the problem is that with the development of these two people as soon as they meet, how to get along in the future is really a big problem......
