Chapter 23: Lua's Swordsmanship
Finally, to the tearful applause of all the spectators, Pansy Theobald took the undisputed title with the first overall score, and he will receive a certificate from the Black Seat and a huge prize of 30,000 soles.
Similarly, as strong contenders for the championship, Zenya, Biwick, and Feng Qi also received the prize money and honor they deserved. They didn't touch the coveted title, but as the first finalists of the Culinary Food Show, their future is bright!
After the awards, the four chefs will show their abilities to satisfy the audience's long-standing appetite, and close the curtain on this expensive but fruitful food competition.
Behind the scenes, the actors and actresses who finished the performance were finally able to take a breath to rest and recuperate, so that they could recuperate enough to deal with the various matters of the welcome party. Just as the other three were being sent away, Aree called out to Lua alone.
"Is there anything wrong?" asked the knight, wrinkling her eyebrows.
"Here's the thing, I've been concentrating on swordsmanship recently, and I've become a little more proficient."
The black-haired knight said with some embarrassment: "Among the people I know, it should be your swordsmanship style that is closest to me and the best, all, I want to ask you for some advice." ”
"Eh, you want to ask me to teach you swordsmanship, that's what it means. The corners of Luya's rosy lips turned up slightly, revealing an expression that seemed to be smiling rather than smiling.
"Yes, I just wanted to ask you to teach me swordsmanship. He said stiffly.
"Yes, but I don't have time during the day, so I'll come at ten o'clock in the evening. The female knight unexpectedly readily agreed, but the timing was a little strange. Without waiting for Aree to continue speaking, he quickened his pace and left on his own.
"Ten o'clock ...... p.m."
The black-haired knight stares at her vibrant double ponytail. There was a look of hesitation in his eyes.
......
After nightfall, all the members and employees of the Kuroza cleaned up the hall and square, had a sumptuous dinner, and then dispersed to go about their business.
Somehow, today Charlene has a bad temper and even a request to eat together has been denied. He could only go to the rooftop alone to practice military swordsmanship, and he didn't stop practicing until the clock rang nine times.
"There is less and less leisure time. I don't know when I'll be transferred, and if I don't hurry up and find Luya to hone my swordsmanship, I guess I won't have such a good opportunity in the future. ”
Thinking of this, Yalei immediately made up his mind. Put the training sword back into its sheath. Facing the east, a vertical leap directly. Like a shadow riding the wind, he leaped from the top of the Black Seat to the moonlit plaza in the distance, and the tall figure flickered in the shadow of the street lamp before disappearing into the light.
The black-haired knight maintained the highest speed of normalcy, like a wind sweeping through the square of the Blue Seat, and from a distance, the tall tower of the Red Seat had already appeared in his field of vision.
"Huh?"
Yalei looked at the top of the tower in amazement. A slender figure with a heavy sword in hand was found already sitting on the edge of the rooftop. Her long, straight legs hung in mid-air, and her burgundy ponytails swayed up and down with the night breeze, as if she was admiring the moon.
"Lua?"
He stepped into the square, walked to the bottom of the tower, and looked down at the top.
"You're here? almost an hour early. Luya held a training heavy sword in one hand, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and said faintly.
At the moment, she was completely different from the daytime, wearing a set of white training clothes, a red corset tied around her waist, outlining a slender and straight curve, and a pair of flat sandals with thin straps below her calves.
"You don't seem to be waiting for me, are you?" said Are, tiptoeing to the ground, his body shooting into the sky like an arrow, landing right on the edge of the rooftop.
"Sometimes, I can't help but recall something that happened in the middle realm...... My Master Chief, Sasha, often joined us in gazing at the moon in the sky...... It's like gazing back home. ”
By the end, the female knight's voice was inaudible, and her gaze lowered to the square below, as if she was trying to hide her feelings.
"She died?" asked Yalei softly.
"Yes, they were all sacrificed. Luya suddenly held her sword and pointed to the ground, and her body rose lightly into the air, setting off a gentle cool breeze and falling to the center of the rooftop:
"If it weren't for General Ebenezer, we would have died. ”
"It's a very happy thing to be alive. ”
The black-haired knight drew his training heavy sword, clenched the hilt of the sword with both hands, and aimed the blade at the female knight opposite: "All good things will become memories, and memories will make it memories." ”
"Can you do it?" the female knight posed in the same sword pose, her red eyes staring at the figure opposite.
"Yes, I can. Yalei nodded slightly, and said noncommittally.
"Oh, just use your sword and show me!"
There was a hint of curiosity in Luya's voice, and she raised the training sword in her hand, and her figure broke through the air in front of her, and slammed into Yalei at a high speed.
"Then let's try it!" Yalei also raised his training sword, and with the ripple of the sound, two different sword winds intertwined in the air.
Bell--!
A string of sparks suddenly burst out from the place where the sword blades collided, and for a while, two equally huge forces poured into the training sword, and then they collided together, instantly canceling each other, and the wrestling began.
The two unopened training swords, with the collision of the strength of the two, continued to rub and collide, and the blades at the confrontation began to slowly sink in.
“......”
Lua stared into the other's eyes, bared out a mouthful of fine white teeth, and as the power poured into her arms continued to increase, thick green tendons burst out of her pretty white face, like a witch.
“......”
There was a strange look in Yalei's eyes, and he didn't expect that Luya's strength would be strong enough to wrestle with him. Not only to this extent, but the opponent's strength is constantly trying to penetrate the training sword in his hand, subtly destroying the blade of the sword, even if he is armed with the power of natural disasters, he can't achieve such a precise force, unless he ......
"Lua, you've also been promoted!"
With this roar of joy, the strength of the black-haired knight's arms suddenly increased, and the blade of the sword swept forward with a strong wind, throwing the female knight's body straight out.
"That's right. ”
Luya made a beautiful move in mid-air and fell back to the ground smoothly, the green muscles on her pretty face were still increasing, and the shuttle-like figure was transmitted to the front along with the words:
"It's hard to survive that kind of hell without even advancing to the ranks. ”
Yalei jumped up directly, and the training sword in his hand Huo Ran met the sword blade that flew towards him, with a sound of tearing the air, it slashed across Luya's chest, and his right elbow pressed against the opponent's abdomen, catapulting it out:
"It's obviously a woman, but she has so much power. ”
Tapping her toes on the ground, the female knight's speed increased rapidly, turning into a white phantom and rushing forward, a cold light suddenly rose from the space on the rooftop, and slashed straight at the throat of the black-haired knight.
Yalei quickly swung his sword to protect his throat, but it was still not as fast as that little cold light, Luya's ghostly figure approached inch by inch, and the blade of the sword slashed through the training sword he protected in front of him, without the slightest pause, coherently and swiftly stabbed into the throat.
“......”
Since he couldn't stop it, he could only avoid it urgently, Yalei quickly withdrew the training sword in his hand, and retreated to the rear with a twisted movement.
Luya relied on swordsmanship to gain the upper hand, but she didn't chase and fight, maintained a stabbing posture, looked at the slightly embarrassed opponent, and smiled:
"In terms of strength, I'm not as powerful as you gorilla! ”
"I hate this nickname!"
Arei was furious, but at the moment when he was angry, the figure of the other party suddenly pierced through the air, and with a heavy sword roar that tore through the airflow, it still stabbed him in the throat.
The black-haired knight instinctively raised his training sword to block the opponent's first sword, trying to shake off the attack with brute force and regain the initiative in the battle. But just before he burst out of power, Luya's training sword bypassed the blade without any force, and the twisted slender waist had strong tenacity, directly using the sword blade against the back of the sword, but instead shocked his training sword to the empty door.
What a great swordsmanship!
In a flash of lightning, Yalei suddenly had a whim, and slammed his elbow into the back of the opponent's sword, relying on this sudden blow to regain a little advantage.
After he took the sword back to defense, Luya's training sword had already stabbed into the throat again, still the same technique, still the same strength, the black-haired knight's tense body strength, actually slapped the blade of the sword against the back of the sword, and brutally blocked this attack.
The power is their own superiority, and the speed is between the two sides. That is, the advantage is clearly on his side, but ...... Why is it that the person who is overwhelmed and breathless is himself?
The thought flashed through the black-haired knight's mind, and before he could think about it, the other party's sword blade reflected the moonlight, and once again instantly pierced through the air, stabbing into his throat like a spiritual snake.
Still coming?
Yalei was completely out of temper after being crushed, and his body flashed to the side, so he could only distance himself first, and then he was trying to find a way to crack the opponent's tricky swordsmanship.
But this time, Luya obviously wouldn't let her go easily, her body forced half a step closer, her feet slammed into the ground, her body clenched the blade of the sword with both hands, drew a snowy fan, and continued to slash at the opponent's side neck.
Clang!
With the collision sound of the gold and stone exchanges, this blow Yalei had no way to block it, and was slashed in the neck by a sword, and the whole figure was shocked by the power in the sword, and slid out of control for several steps to the side, and then it stopped.
"Alas!" Yalei let out a helpless sigh, such an aggrieved battle really made him unable to let go.
"Is it uncomfortable?" asked Lua deliberately leaning in.
"It's uncomfortable. He nodded honestly.
"That's right, I did it on purpose. The knight said with a smile.
"......" (To be continued......)
