"When—"

The two swords collided, and a golden-red light bloomed, and countless sparks slashed across the faces of the two people who clashed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"The technique is good, the explosiveness and angle of the attack are perfect, but it's a pity that ......"

As a middle-aged man, Larnes was extremely calm in the face of Yuris's young attack.

With a sword in one hand, a relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't forget to instruct Yuris a few words during the period, quite like an elder who is educating his children.

"But...... Compared to me, there is still a big gap!!"S

"Bang-"

Larnes picked his hand and directly picked the sword in Yuris's hand.

"Strength, it's still too small!"

"Click-"

The silver-white sword slashed down and struck Yuris directly into the right shoulder.

This time the power was huge, and Yuris was a little unbearable wearing such exquisite armor, and the silver-white blade was embedded in it. The concussions from the metal-to-metal collision traveled down the armor to Yuris's brain.

There were no skin injuries, but a feeling of dizziness in his mind made the young knight vomit on the spot, and it was full of flaws for a while.

"Vomit—"

"Hmph, Young Master Yuris, even if you are unwell, you must not expose your weaknesses at the scene, otherwise you will ......"

Rans said, lifting a kick and slamming it into Yuris's chest.

"But I'm going to die at any time!!"

"Uhhh

Yuris screamed, and before the blood could spurt out of his mouth, his body flew backwards and slammed into a tree.

"Boom-"

The sudden collision made the giant tree tremble, and the snow on the branches fell in an instant, burying Yuris, who had collapsed below.

Cold......

Piercing cold ......

Surrounded by snow in such armor on a cold winter day, the feeling of going crazy almost made Yuris lose his mind.

"It's cold. ”

Larnes plunged his sword into the snow beneath his feet, looking like he was watching a show.

"After all, it's just a rich kid, the severity of the battlefield, and the sense of oppression of the life-and-death decisive battle are still not clear enough. ”

(careless...... ）

(I thought that as the second place in the Knights' Recruitment Competition, even if I couldn't have enough of an advantage against this previous general, I would at least be able to fight with him, but I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect ...... ）

(I actually ...... ）

(After a few simple moves like this, you lose your ability to fight...... ）

(I'm really...... What about waste...... ）

...............................................................................................................

"Winner!

With tens of thousands of spectators cheering, the referee announced the result of the match.

Confrontation with both sides.

One side is male, one side is female.

One side is long, and the other side is young.

One side was covered with bruises and could not get up again when he fell to the ground, and the other stood indifferently and could not find a single scar all over his body.

Although this is a duel that has been fought for a long time, it is basically Yuris attacking unilaterally throughout the whole process. Clairedo was on the defensive and didn't start counter-attacking until the last few minutes.

And just those few minutes......

Did what Yuris had failed to do in dozens of minutes of hard work.

In order not to lose face for a person of his status, the referee also deliberately said the words "wonderful battle" to sum up. But anyone with a discerning eye knows that although his attacks are very organized and the battle is very rhythmic, he is not at the same level as the other party.

As an older male knight, he lost to a woman younger than himself, which is the most unbearable for a person with strong self-esteem like him.

"I ...... Lost ......"

Yuris looked at the girl, at the not-so-tall back, and a sense of shame suddenly filled his heart.

"Why...... To procrastinate...... You can beat me at the beginning, why are you delaying until now...... Is it to want...... Laugh at me?"

“......”

Claire didn't answer, she put away her sword and turned to leave.

"I'm sorry ......"

“......”

"I'm sorry ......"

...............................................................................................................

"I'm sorry ......"

His vision was blurry, but his consciousness hadn't yet fully dissipated, and just as his eyes were about to close, Yuris suddenly heard a voice.

A somewhat familiar voice.

"Pop ......"

Warm, moist droplets of water dripped onto Yuris's face, a special touch that would sober him up.

"Huh...... Why are you crying again......"

Yuris didn't see anyone, but he already knew her identity in his heart, and he smiled slightly and complained.

"No...... No...... I'm sorry...... Sorry ......"

"Before...... Also...... Obviously won me...... Still...... Crying...... Why...... You're ...... Crybaby...... Knight...... Being strong is not ...... Is it basic......"

"I'm sorry ......"

"Why...... I want to apologize......"

"Woo woo woo ......"

As she spoke, Yuris slowly raised her frozen hand, touched the side of Claire's face, and wiped away a few tears with a swipe on it.

"Mingming...... Last year's recruitment tournament...... You are number one...... I'm the second ...... It's me...... Crying ......"

"Why do you ...... Come here, it's none of your business, I said before, don't worry about my business anymore......"

Claire's hand slapped the snow off Yuris's face and looked at the boy in her arms with a guilty expression.

"Hmph...... I'm going to...... Defeat you...... Because the injury can't ...... Swing the sword to fight...... This justification...... I can ...... I can ...... No...... Not ......"

Yuris's eyes closed, the severity of his injuries and the severe cold around him finally broke through his defenses, and at the last moment of his coma, his hand was still clenched to the sword in his hand.

Seem......

I don't want to give up this battle yet......

"Hmm...... It's really weak, and sure enough, it's different for rich people to be pampered, and it's reasonable for you to beat him in the game. ”

Larnes said, smiling as he drew his sword in the snow.

"I'll leave this kid to you, although he doesn't seem to be interested in you, but with his determination, you can still hope to enter their house with a little bit of effort, so try your best. ”

The middle-aged man is gone.

Yuris and Claire were left behind.

Around the corner, a boy suddenly came out, looking at the unexpected poignant scene in front of him, and a hint of unpredictable color flashed in his eyes.

Boy, I've tried.

What did he get?

Failure, and ...... Girl's tears.

Does he like her?

Maybe not, he came in for his own goals.

But......

Who can guarantee it......

Just now, he really just had such thoughts?

"I'm sorry ......"

The apologies and tears of that day were really ...... Is it just a back for him to catch up?
