Chapter 21: Salted Fish Spikes
After going around and around, we finally arrived at the training ground.
I thought it would be a small dojo larger than a normal room, but when I entered the gate, I saw an open space bigger than a football field!
Well, it doesn't seem right to say that it's an open space, because it has a roof, so it's clearly a gymnasium!
Overhead is a huge oval vault with some bizarre reliefs, including the most common chimeras in Western mythology, giants, and hydras, which appear mysterious and beautiful in the light of the lights.
I'm curious to know how it was carved, and I really have to be able to fly!
In addition, there is a kind of marble-like floor that looks hard, and it is clear that it is not any ordinary training to be carried out here, at least there will be a plot like magic bombardment.
My father didn't stop, but led me to another brown-red wooden door not far away and pushed it open.
It was supposed to be a storage room, full of things, all kinds of weapons, armor, and some other things like stakes.
Follow him inside, swords, knives, axes, staffs, spears...... There are all kinds of weapons, and I feel like I've entered a weapon shop.
It's a pity that I didn't find the knife, and I thought ......
Because what he wanted to teach me was swordsmanship, aristocratic swordsmanship to be precise, so he took a long sword, and I also took a long sword that looked more handsome.
When you don't know the performance, choose by appearance! I'm Yan Dang.
I thought it would be heavy, but it turned out to be unexpectedly light, which is very strange.
Driven by curiosity, I lifted the two-meter-long sword next to me, which should not have been able to lift it at all, but it only felt a little heavier, and it was no problem to wield it.
Just when I was puzzled, my father probably heard the sound of me swinging his sword, and suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "Mixiu! You think these weapons are lightweight, don't you? ”
"Hmmm! By the way, Dad, these can't be plastic imitation weapons, right? It's very realistic! However, the duke's family actually used a fake weapon! It's too picky, isn't it? ”
As I spoke, I swung it into the air again, feeling like a warrior carrying a sword in a cosplay, and holding a hand-touched weapon made of foam board.
With a frown, he asked suspiciously, "Tree material?" What is that? ”
"Uh...... It's a very light material! Not to mention that, I'm just wondering if these weapons are really made of iron! ”
I quickly changed the subject, this kind of thing is troublesome to explain!
"The steel giant sword in your hand is indeed a steel giant sword, I think it's light because your physique has become stronger, stop playing, hurry up and keep up! I'm going to pick out armor for you! ”
It seems that it was succeeded in fooling the past.
"Oh."
I put the big sword back and ran to my father's side, in front of the armor shelf.
This time he didn't let me choose by myself, he just took them down one by one and put them in my arms, armor, hand guards, leg guards, arm guards, combat boots, helmets, although I didn't think they weighed, but they were so piled up that I couldn't see the front clearly, and the road here was not wide enough for me to turn around at will, so that I couldn't go rampant like a crab.
"Michaeu! Don't mess around! Come over here! "Suddenly, I heard my father's voice calling me in the distance.
I have a sentence that my mother sells batches and I don't know whether to say it or not, what do you want me to do?
"Dad! I can't see the way! I roared.
"Huh? …… Oh! I'm sorry! I'll go right over! ”
He then came over and helped me remove a few pieces of protective gear that blocked my view and led me to a huge floor-to-ceiling mirror.
The next step is to put on the armor, take off the jacket and wear it directly.
Soon, what appeared in the mirror was a handsome knight in silver armor!
The armor and leg guards are soft, so it doesn't feel bulky to move, and I tried jumping a few times, and it was no problem!
As soon as I finished dressing, my father hugged me and praised me, making me a little fluttery.
Although I am really handsome, although he is telling the truth, I will also be shy!
After tidying up a little bit, we went out and got ready to start our formal sword training.
However, I found a rather serious problem, and I smelled the smell of conspiracy!
It's okay if my father doesn't wear armor, after all, his swordsmanship is definitely better than mine, and he should be very confident that he won't get hurt, but why should I wear armor?
Wear it, why wear a full set?
And why do you use real swords in training? I'm a newbie! Shouldn't you use a wooden sword first to teach? I saw the wooden sword in the warehouse, too!
Is this really training? Is it really not the trick he designed to take advantage of the opportunity to beat his son?
"Father! Isn't it just teaching swordsmanship? Why do you wear armor? I'm going to be angry if you don't make it clear! With my hands on my chest, I raised my proud head and glared at him, waiting for a reasonable explanation.
My father was a little stunned and explained, "I just want to test your strength by conducting actual combat before training!" What's wrong? ”
To be honest, this is a very reasonable reason, and it is not at all what I thought it would be.
It turns out that there is still truth, goodness and beauty in the world! Forgive me for living in a world full of conspiracy theories before I crossed over.
Also, I was a little frustrated when I guessed wrong.
"Okay, so how are we going to proceed?" Moving my body a little, I waited to listen to the rules of the battle.
"You just start attacking, I won't fight back or dodge in the first round, and you'll try to block my attack in the second round, understand?"
To be honest, being underestimated by my father makes me a little unwilling, but what can I do about it?
I haven't practiced before, and I don't usually like to exercise, and when I was in school, I was at the bottom of every run......
Salted fish will learn from other people's arrogance! Let's be honest and accept the reality!
"Then I'm not going to be polite! Look at my salted fish spike! ”
Pulling out the sword and tossing the scabbard aside, I grabbed the hilt with both hands and slashed directly at him, yes, I said it was a thrust, but in fact I was slashing from top to bottom.
It's not that I want to deceive my father so that I can take advantage of the opportunity to attack him, but since I only attack like this, the spike is fake, but the salted fish is a real salted fish.
My father held the sword in his right hand, clenched his left hand into a fist behind his back, one foot forward, one foot back, sideways facing my side, it was really majestic, and it was very high! Let me see the huge gap between the nobles and the salted fish as if separated by a galaxy!
Imagining that I can pretend to be like him in the future, I have developed a strong interest in this noble swordsmanship, and no one wants to stop me! I've learned this pretending to be a swordsman!
Seeing my posture and moves, which were newer than a novice, my father, who had a serious face, couldn't help laughing, I thought there was a chance, but as soon as he raised his hand, the tip of the sword was lightly raised, and I was bounced away by him.
Stopping my hind legs and looking at my father with a relaxed face, I was a little speechless.
This is exactly the rhythm of the king abusing bronze! Can I shout that your dad will let me go?
I couldn't think about it, so I had to attack it again.
I remember that there is a saying that the higher you fly, the more painful it hurts to fall! Uh, no, no, it should be, the more painful the fall, the better you can fly! Just let me be beaten up once with a bang!
Of course, provided that you don't slap yourself in the face!
