Chapter 119: Winning
"My lord, there is still a long time before the banquet begins, so let's not have a simple competitive game to help the fun. The knight standing beside the Marquis of Asa stepped forward and said.
There are two main entertainment programs in this world, one is a popular competition between nobles, in which the knights under their command participate, without extraordinary strength, only with their own combat skills, and the winner can get honor and respect.
Some aristocrats even went down to compete in person.
The other is the gladiatorial tournament, which can be visited by both commoners and nobles for a small fee.
The contest is made up of outlaws or death row inmates, with the former getting money for winning and the latter getting a reduced sentence, and it's quite bloody, and death happens every day.
Some large cities have special venues for such competitions, such as the gladiatorial arena in Lucca, the first city in the north, which can accommodate nearly 10,000 people.
"Bisis, you ......" Marquis Asa looked at him with displeasure, but when he came into contact with his determined eyes, he couldn't help but soften.
If he refuses his offer at this time, not only will he appear scared, but it will also undermine the confidence of the loyal knight, and he will also want to earn dignity and respect for himself.
"My lord, my subordinates ask for your permission. Seeing that he had not spoken, Bisis repeated his request again.
"Marquis Jason, what do you think?" In desperation, Marquis Asa could only focus on Jason, and at this time, he, the master, had to make a decision.
"Well, I think it's pretty early, so be it. Jason looked up at the sky, it was still very early before dark, and it was not bad to take this opportunity to learn about the strength of Marquis Asa's men.
"Then I'll be the opponent of this adult. As soon as Jason finished speaking, Ronnat stood up, and it was obvious that the Bisis Knight was targeting him.
"I can't ask for it. The knight of Bisis bowed slightly, responding to Ronna's special challenge.
"Just go outside. Jason smiled and said, "There's a training ground outside, let's use it as an arena for the time being." ”
"Then I'll be the referee with Jason Jr. The Marquis of Asa also answered, and now he could only pray that nothing would happen to Bises.
............
"At the end of the competition, no human life shall be harmed, and no extraordinary strength shall be used. The Marquis of Asa and the others stood outside the training ground and loudly stated the precautions of the game, and then announced the start of the competition.
Ronat took off the armor and clothes of his upper body, revealing his strong muscles, not afraid of the cold of winter, holding a black wooden sword in his hand, and looking at his opponent quietly.
On the other side, Bisis is much more decent, wearing a samurai uniform to protect him from the cold, standing on the other side of the training ground and waiting for him.
The two slowly approached each other after the Marquis of Asa announced the start, and it would take some effort for either Ronat or Bisis to win the match without using their supernatural powers.
The two were cautious at the beginning, after all, this match was about the honor of the lords of both sides.
"Dear little Jason, do you think your knights will win, or will my warriors be superior?" said Marquis Asa with a smile as the two tested each other, and the crushing situation he had been worried about did not appear, so he gradually became in the mood to continue chatting with Jason.
"It's hard to say. Jason didn't have blind confidence on the surface, but he was confident that Lonnatt could win because his extraordinary strength was not very strong, and his strength mainly came from his strong physique and fighting style.
"Why don't we gamble?" Marquis Asa's eyes rolled and he said with a smile, "It's a pastime." ”
"Wouldn't that show a lot of respect for them?" Jason hesitated.
"It's okay. The Marquis of Asa continued to persuade him.
"Oh well. "Since people are in a hurry to send them something, it's hard to refuse, Jason thought to himself.
"What's the jackpot?" he asked.
"If your men win, I'll give you three thousand gold coins. The Marquis of Asa stretched out three fingers with a smile on his face.
It's not a small deal, is it possible that the chips in this kind of gambling between these big nobles are so heavy?
"And what about your men win?" asked Jason.
"Don't you have confidence in your men?" said Marquis Asa, raising an eyebrow.
"Of course not, of course the gambling game has to explain all the conditions. ”
"Haha, if Bisis wins, I don't want your gold, just help me build a manor in the town. ”
"It's a deal. Jason was secretly refreshed, but it was not good to show a victorious expression in advance.
"It's a deal. Marquis Asa smiled slightly, and returned his gaze to the battle in the training ground.
sighed slightly in my heart, what a stupid child.
The two men in the field had already ended their mutual temptation when Jason and Marquis Asa were talking, and the battle became fierce, and the knights under Marquis Asa around them were nervous.
Bisis was not the most powerful swordsman under the Marquis of Asa, nor was he the most powerful superlative, but he was definitely the strongest of the ten of them.
"Bisis, come on!" they cheered for Bisis loudly, and in their opinion the match had been evenly matched so far, and it was not without a chance of victory.
On the contrary, the guards on Jason's side were silent one by one, quietly watching their commander and instructor fighting in the field, but their eyes were steadfast, because in their eyes no one but Lancelot could defeat this steely warrior!
Although Bisis is strong and tall, he must be far from the terrifying Lonnat, and can only reach his shoulders, so his movements are relatively flexible, and in the eyes of outsiders, he has repeatedly driven Lonnat to a dead end, and he is in danger.
But the Marquis of Asa, who was also a powerful swordsman, soon discovered that something was wrong, and Lonnat was trying to lure Bisis into using all his strength to reveal all his hole cards, so as to speculate on the strength of his men.
At the same time, the person who felt extremely uncomfortable was Bisis in the field, who seemed to have been pressing Lonnat to fight, but in fact he had not even touched Lonnat's trouser legs, and this time he really hit the iron plate.
The two continued to wrestle, and after more than half an hour of fighting, the muscles in Ronnat's arms suddenly tightened, and the black wooden sword slashed diagonally from above, and Bisis hurriedly swung his sword with all his strength in an attempt to fend off the terrible blow.
"Click!"
Under the nervous gaze of the onlookers, the black wood swords of the two broke in response, and the two people in the field did not continue to fight, just stood there quietly.
"This ...... Is this a draw?" said one of the knights, hesitantly speaking in silence.
"I lost......" Just when everyone was puzzled, Bisis in the audience whispered, his tone full of admiration.
"You're good. Ronnet replied faintly, and turned to Jason.
"It looks like I won. Jason said with a smile.
"I'll send you the gold in a few days. "The Marquis of Asa looked pity.
"Thank you. Jason turned to leave, and an inaudible voice reached the ears of the Marquis of Asa, so small that he could not hear it clearly.
