Chapter 122: The Stabbing Sword and the Great Sword III.
Lars stared at the man in front of him, his complexion from the sun and rain that had been tinged down for a long time, and he couldn't help but think of the bandits and wandering mercenaries he had encountered along the way—but that kind of sword skill, the corpses of the cavemen he had seen in the crypt and mines, which were all impossible for such a group of people.

Speaking from his heart, making reasonable use of the favorable terrain of the defense, Lars was also certain that he could take over the large group of cavemen - the mine was dimly lit, and what he saw was only a part of it, and some of the cavemen warriors, even a few mutant bells, he didn't pay much attention to it. This also made his judgment a little skewed.
But none of these things mattered, because he saw in Alyssa's eyes that he was eager to try. Lars took a step forward, and he decided to issue a challenge, whether the other party accepted it or not-
The sword is unsheathed.
The standard standard longsword of the Iris Knights was held in his hand - a thick blade about a meter back, a thin blade at the front, and a blade forged from steel under the sun reflecting circles of bright white patterns. With his waist over and his arms slightly drooping, Lars struck a noble duel's usual starting hand pose.
The man on the other side finally sighed, "It seems that I have no choice. ”
Lars nodded silently, he held his breath, and with that soft sigh, the man's shoulders moved. It was a harbinger of a move, and Lars waved his sword almost subconsciously, but the next second, he stopped-
The young man in front of him just reached out and scratched the messy hair on his head, and he smiled, "This place doesn't seem to fit well, it's too cramped. He glanced around to the left and right. Two rows of evergreen bushes trimmed into oval balls separated the front of the house, and behind it were several tall trees with withered yellow skins, and under them lay a few stone benches on the grassy grass covered with dead leaves, which were a place of rest. It is inevitable to use it to fight, destroy some flowers and plants.
As a guest of the estate, such a gesture is never polite.
The man glanced at Kia beside Alyssa, who squinted and smiled, like a little fox who had succeeded in a plot, and she echoed, "There is a lot of open space in the manor. ”
"Well, then, we can change places."
Lars agreed with the man's proposal, and the group was led by Miss Kia to an empty arena - a place for the guards of the manor to practice their daily work, several straw figures for swordsmanship, and a number of wooden shelves of different shapes, which were evenly spaced from each other and filled most of the field.
At this time, some guards who were not on duty were doing their daily practice, and when they saw Qi Ya and the three noble knights, and a strange young man walking towards them, they all stopped their movements.
"Miss Kia, what's the matter with those other people?"
One of the guards asked, stabbing his companion in the hand.
"Maybe it's going to practice swordsmanship, I don't know."
"Those nobles seem to be knights of the Iris Knights."
Another guard joined the discussion.
"Miss Kia completed her inauguration in the summer, maybe she asked a few knights to teach her swordsmanship."
"Hmm, but, wouldn't it be better to let the eldest young master do this? Also, who is the mercenary walking behind? ”
The guards whispered. When Miss Kia had entered the arena, they stopped talking, and bowed in unison to the young lady of the Escud family—the girl with the two ponytails did not take up her arms and begin to practice as usual, but came to the center of the arena and shouted to Lars and a certain gentleman who was skilled in swordsmanship:
"This is it, very good."
"It does fit."
Lars and Glo came to the field, standing opposite each other. He held the sword in one hand and spread his palm in the other hand to signal the other party to strike first. As a nobleman, it is not a very honorable thing to force a commoner to fight, and Lars has his own pride, so he decides to be polite.
Of course, in a sword fight, the first move does not mean an advantage - Lars noticed the stabbing sword at the man's waist. This is a weapon that is easy to attack but not suitable for defense, and according to his experience, the opponent should be an assassin or a ranger. As an inaugural knight, this kind of pure frontal combat is undoubtedly very advantageous for him.
But Glo doesn't seem to accept this comity.
He stood relaxed in place, his right hand pulling out the japtic justice [Jatis] from the scabbard attached to his belt, and he did not pull it out completely, only revealing a third of the sword's body—a rare gesture of starting hands. However, Lars, Alyssa, and Cody knew that this sword style originated from the wandering mercenaries, although it did not have an official name, but the moment the sword was fully drawn, the attack issued was by no means to be underestimated.
Miss Kia lowered her raised arm—
Lars took a deep breath as he took two steps and opted for a sideways slash from the bottom up. In doing so, he flips his wrist in preparation for the next return slash – a well-balanced, easy-to-adjust sword pose that allows him to choose his next move at any time depending on his opponent's reaction.
He had already anticipated that the other party was about to deliver the lightning blow, and he had made a plan to fight back!
However, the moment his sword swung and fell to its lowest point, the figure of his opponent flashed before his eyes, and suddenly disappeared - Lars saw the bayonet sword pull out of its scabbard, bringing out a series of brilliant sparks from the violent friction, and he blocked it horizontally, but it fell unexpectedly.
The guards on the sidelines, as well as Miss Kia, Elisa, and Cody, opened their mouths in surprise one by one. Because, they saw such a rare sight:
The young man was dressed in fluttering clothes, and from where he had been standing, he pulled out a series of successive figures. One, two, three...... For a moment, they couldn't see how many successive figures appeared, and all the figures eventually overlapped into one, appearing behind Lars. Then, in the middle of the field, the sparkling indigo electric light flew, accompanied by a crisp knock.
The untold secret of the Wycliffe family, "Thunder Blitz Fencing"!
Alyssa and Cody couldn't help but be shocked, as soon as they fought, Lars actually used this kind of swordsmanship - as long-time companions, of course they knew what it meant:
Lars is already at full strength!
However, this sword technique is extremely expensive for the user, and with Lars's current strength, it will definitely not be able to support it for too long.
The two of them immediately became worried about their companions in the field.
