"My name is Zanafar Belgander. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info is a Knight of Light belonging to the Knights of the Hall of the Holy Kingdom of Faris, and today I am challenging Your Excellency in the witness of the Goddess! ”

Seeing that Taron did not react for a moment, Zanafa repeated what he had just said, but Talon only smiled bitterly and asked an irrelevant question:

"The knights of the Hall of the Dharma, why did you participate in such a competition, could it be that the Lord's King sent you?"

"It seems that Your Excellency has questions about this duel, so well, I'll answer your questions first. Relaxing from his state of preparation, Zhanafa said politely, "It's the Pope's intention to come to this game." ”

"Why?"

"Do you mean why the Pope is here?" said Zanafa with a light smile, "This is to show the might of our Holy Kingdom. ”

"Can you show off your saint in a game like this?"

"Of course not, the Pope chose me to participate so that everyone on the continent can see the strength of our Holy Kingdom, so I must defeat all my opponents. ”

"What a big breath, do you still want to win the championship?"

"That's really the goal under it. ”

Daron glanced at the middle-aged man wrapped in white heavy armor and asked, "What is your military rank?"

"I'm just a minion. The heroic Yang Tian laughed twice, and Zanafa replied.

"Then why did the Pope choose you?"

"Because I'm good at fighting. ”

Daron nodded. It is true that Faris could not have sent generals and master chiefs to participate in the competition, otherwise it would be too much of a fuss. Faris's purpose was nothing more than to introduce a soldier to the competition, so that people from other countries could imagine the strength of Faris's strength through his performance. Because Faris is a country that advocates peace, and it is their consistent principle not to fight with other countries, other countries have not known what Faris's military strength has been in the past thousand years.

The perennial peace has brought a sense of crisis to Faris, and the opportunity to escalate this sense of crisis is the movement of the Black Emperor's troops in recent years. Yega's continuous reinforcement of troops seems to be a trend of waging war against other countries. Therefore, Faris is worried that his own military strength, which has not been on the battlefield for many years, will be looked down upon by others, so he has also made some related moves recently.

They organized large-scale military exercises, increased the publicity of the canon, and even let the people of Galbadia get a glimpse of the individual combat ability of the Knight of Light, and did not hesitate to select the elite knights of the Hall of the King of Law to participate in this kind of competition with the highest exposure.

If the Knight of Light they sent out could win the championship in this kind of tournament that brought together the best players from all walks of life, wouldn't it prove that the Knight of Light of Faris was the strongest? Therefore, this knight must have been stuffed with various magic weapons by the church of Faris, and his excellent equipment is just like the "White Dragon Suit" worn by the legendary King of France when he fought.

"I've heard that Faris's canon forbids fighting, and that Faris's army can only fight for self-preservation and to uphold justice, but you say you're capable of fighting?" asked Daron.

"That's right, the Pope held a small tryout in his own country in order to select a person to participate in the tournament in the Hall of the Crown, and I was the one who won the final qualification, so I said that I was very good at fighting. Zhanafa replied honestly.

"Why do you say that, I don't think the Dharma King Hall is such a noble existence, can you actually hold this kind of market competition in that kind of place?"

"We all fought fair duels in the presence of the goddess, so it was not contrary to our teachings. ”

"Hey, that's just self-justification. ”

In this world, the goddess of light represents coordination, while the dark god represents chaos. Fighting is meant to favor Darkgod Dark, but Farris's ability to turn it into a legitimate duel by adding the label "fair" to the fight is a brilliant trick.

In any case, a duel approved by the goddess must meet the following three conditions:

1. There must not be too much difference in rank and strength between the two sides of the dueling.

2. Both sides of the duel shall uphold the principle of fairness and impartiality, and the use of improper means in the duel shall not be used. Duels must be fought on point, without the intention of seriously injuring the opponent or taking the opponent's life.

3. Before the duel, both sides must report their names to each other, and one party challenges the other. After the challenge is accepted by the opponent, the duel can be played.

The above three conditions are indispensable, and as long as he is a soldier or cleric of Faris, he cannot violate these conditions when he uses force against others. Of course, if it is for self-preservation or in special circumstances such as maintaining justice, the above three conditions can also be broken.

In the Inphilia continent, the goddess Ilia is the only god on the light side, and almost all the people in the continent have faith in it, so no matter who accepts the challenge issued by the Knight of Light of Faris, they dare not violate the fairness of the duel, otherwise it will be disrespectful to the goddess.

At the time of the quota selection, the reason why all the people in Zanafa's group were able to have a fair duel with each other was because of Zanafa's status as a Knight of Light.

Daron moved his muscles and bones for a moment, and at the same time actively thought about the best way to defeat the enemy, but he had never fought with the Knight of Light, and he knew nothing about divine magic, and the first time he saw divine magic was when he met the Holy Maiden of Light in the last bandit mission.

How the other party will act, how the other party will respond to his own attack, these Talon can't imagine. Besides, the other party is still a light knight directly under the Dharma King, and his strength is not at the same level as that of an ordinary light knight. Daron, who had never fought the Knight of Light before, had to face one of the strongest of them for the first time, which really made him laugh and cry.

However, if you don't have experience, you have to get it in actual combat, maybe Daron should be grateful to Alicia deep down, thanks to her forcing herself to sign up, so Daron now has a very rare chance to make friends.

"My name is Zanafar Belgander. He is a Knight of Light who belongs to the Knights of the Hall of the Holy Kingdom of Faris, and today he challenges Your Excellency in the witness of the Goddess! "It seems that Zanafa is really a stubborn man, or that the Knights of Light are stubborn? This is the third time that Zanafa has said the same thing since he came to power, as if he will continue to say so as long as Talon does not accept his challenge.

"My name is Darlon, and I accept your challenge. Instead of challenging the patience of his opponent and, more importantly, the patience of the audience, Daron finally uttered the words that amounted to a declaration of war.

After the host's order, the game began.

Neither of them rushed out at the first time, neither of them seemed to want to take on the role of attacking first, Dalong held the big sword across his chest, and Zhanafa stood the shield in front of him, and the two sides maintained a vigilant and defensive posture, and a stalemate began.

Even so, Zanafa was actually approaching Talon step by step, hiding his face and body behind a half-human-high shield, and from this angle Talon could not detect where his other sword-holding hand was placed.

Realizing that he would be robbed of the opportunity if he didn't take any action, Daaron watched as the shield invaded his attack range, and quickly moved to the right rear of Zanafar, where he could clearly see Zanafa's sword hand to judge his movements.

According to Talon's inference, it was impossible to be faster than himself in terms of speed while wearing such bulky armor, so Talon also swung his great sword towards Zanafar's waist in a split second behind his pocket.

"Bang!" and the great sword was stopped by Zhanafa's long sword before it was halfway there. I saw Zanafa restrain Talon's movement with a weapon bite, while twisting his body, realigning his shield in Talon's direction and struggling to hold it up.

Watching the shield rapidly approaching his face, Daron pressed the sword with force, and used the reaction force to perform a back-jump, and after standing still, he ran towards the side and back of Zanafa without stopping.

With large shields and heavy armor, all Taron could think of was to use his speed to go around the rear and attack.

But Zanafa, who was also an experienced knight, used his sideways movement to turn his shield at Talon again and meet his sword.

Zanafa's reaction speed exceeded Talon's imagination, and it was inevitable that he would be entangled in this way, and seeing that the frontal and backward attacks would not work, Talon immediately changed his tactics.

Seeing the sword swing at him, Daron leaped to his feet, targeting his opponent's head and striking from above.

Instead of hurting his opponent as expected, the greatsword struck an incomparably hard object, which was Zanafar's swiftly rising shield.

The sword body that split into the shield trembled, and a huge reaction force came from Talon's hand. He lingered in the air for two seconds, and then Daron felt a brute force push himself backwards, and it turned out to be Zanafa who took a step forward and waved away the shield in his hand.

Daron flew backwards and saw Zanafa raise his sword in the air, and the shining light began to gather around the tip of the sword. Ripples of energy in the air sent dangerous signals to Darlon, and he held his breath and desperately focused his mind.

When the light comparable to sunlight on the tip of the sword reached a saturated state, Zhanafa swung the long sword hard, tearing the air, and in an instant, a wave of light broke the earth, surging towards Daron, who could only stand the big sword in front of him to block it slightly.

The touch from the sword's body made Daron feel as if he had been smashed by a battering ram, and after he was hit by Zanafa's holy light, his body bounced out before he could hit the ground, and in that direction was the edge of the round platform for the game......

"Oh no, if Daron falls, he'll lose!" exclaimed Alicia.

Daron felt a pain in his chest, the blow just now seemed to break one or two of his ribs, he swept in the air, and saw that his body was about to fly out of bounds, and immediately plunged his sword into the floor. Because the force of the backlash was too great, Daron just crouched on the ground and used his sword as a buffer, and he didn't stop until the big sword scraped a crack about a meter long on the floor.

Instead of taking advantage of the danger to launch the next round of attacks, Zanafa waited for Daron to reorganize his posture, which made Dalong feel a little arrogant anyway.

"Hey~ It's really troublesome. Daron stood up with a broken thought, he carried the big sword on his shoulder, and his eyes gradually became sharper, "I am also the original knight of Galbadia, how can I lose to the knight of Faris here?"

For the sake of his own honor, Daron can't lose here, but the opponent in front of him is indeed very strong, and the Knights of the Hall of the French King are worthy of their name, and in order to defeat him, Daron must concentrate on doing everything to deal with it.

"Well, that's it for the warm-up, it's time to get serious. Daron muttered to himself unruly, and his eyes returned to a confident look.
