Mad Jack is the son of Viscount Daleman, who has been stubborn since he was a child, relying on his father's wealth and power, and taking pleasure in bullying his peers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoRebecca and Victor lost their father in the plague, and their mother died as a secret prostitute, and the lonely siblings were insulted by this guy every day.
Rebecca, who has experienced hardships at a young age, usually chooses to turn a blind eye or tolerate this kind of bullying in order not to cause trouble at home, but Victor is a teenager when his heart is strong, and he often rushes up to theorize and even fight for his life because he can't stand the other party's wanton abuse.
But after all, he is just a child of a commoner's family, but Mad Jack is a nobleman, not only has he learned martial arts and swordsmanship from the knights of his family since he was a child, but he is also often accompanied by guards, and Victor is beaten in vain every time he rushes up, and is even beaten half to death.
Rebecca, who often rubbed Victor with tears in her eyes, knew that Mad Jack and his accomplices had not killed the killers before, not because the villains had good intentions, but because the Church had enacted a law many years ago in conjunction with the Imperial Family, prohibiting nobles from killing children under the age of fourteen in private fights.
But now, the bill can no longer provide protection for Victor.
Because tomorrow is his fourteenth birthday.
"They must be trying to kill my brother!"
Hearing the news from her neighbor, Rebecca immediately understood that the damn Mad Jack must have calculated that Victor was old enough to fight a duel to the death, so she tricked her impulsive brother into accepting this mortal challenge.
"Uncle Mira, where is Victor, please help me get him back quickly. Rebecca instructed the neighbor who came to report the news as she rummaged through the boxes and began to pack her things, "There's no way my brother can beat that crazy jack, we're going to get out of here before the duel starts." ”
The neighbor nodded: "Don't worry, Rebecca, I'll get little Victor back." As soon as he turned around and was about to go out, he was squeezed aside by a thin boy who suddenly ran in. The kid wiped the sweat from his face and yelled at Rebecca, "I'm not going anywhere, I'm going to kill that bastard tomorrow!"
Syllable!
A slap slammed into the boy's face, making him stunned.
Rebecca withdrew her hand, pointed at her brother's nose, and trembled with anger: "Do you know what family you are from, do you know how capable you are, what does it mean for you to be a nobleman? You are fourteen years old, why do you have to accept a nobleman's challenge recklessly? They are going to kill you! How stupid are you to fight those villains? We have lost our parents, do you want me to lose you again?"
"Sister! They said that Mom is ***! Those bastards actually said that Mom is ***! I'm going to kill them, how can Mom be that kind of woman, those guys who slander and spread rumors deserve to die!" Young Victor stubbornly held his head high, and the five finger prints on his face were clearly visible, but the boy clenched his fists tightly, with a resolute look on his face, "So I won't lose tomorrow, even if I fight for this life, I will drag that bastard to hell together." ”
"You...... You ......"
Rebecca was frightened by Victor's resolute expression, looking at her brother's firm and clear eyes, she didn't have the courage to tell the truth about her mother's secret prostitution, the girl took two steps back, slumped in the chair behind her, and muttered: "But you will die, what will I do if you die...... If you die, I won't have any relatives......"
"Your brother won't die, and I promise you won't lose him in tomorrow's duel. A voice that was both gentle and confident suddenly sounded in her ears. Rebecca turned her head slowly, only to see the handsome blonde boy who had just come to the door looking at her with a smile.
"You...... Say what?"
Rebecca was a little dizzy by the successive events, and she didn't come back to her senses for a while.
"I mean, the two of us can help your brother win tomorrow's duel. Sean felt extremely relaxed at the moment, and the embarrassing situation that had just made him and Helen helpless suddenly became simple and clear with the intrusion of the stubborn boy in front of him, as long as he kept Victor and let Rebecca no longer suffer the pain of losing her loved ones, and still worry that this girl would not accept her kindness and leave the ashes of Master Karazan.
As for how to help Victor win, Sean sneered in his heart, could it be more difficult than defeating the red dragon Aigaru?
He stepped forward to take a closer look at Victor, who was still clenching his fists and had a puffed little face, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly in his heart, this child was really a little thin, as a fourteen-year-old boy, his body was about the same as that of a twelve-year-old Hi Pi, and the muscles on his body were not strong enough, so he was really not a good material to be a samurai. Seeing this, Sean couldn't help but ask curiously, "You just said that you are sure that you will fight with the other party to the end?"
Victor raised his head, pursed his lips vigorously, met the blazing gaze of Sean, who was much taller than him, first nodded fiercely, and then said solemnly: "I know that crazy jack bastard is a nobleman, and someone taught him to practice swords when he was very young. But I'm not bad, when I was six years old, my father took me and started practicing martial arts. ”
"Your father, isn't he a groom?"
"My father was originally an attendant of Sir Nilo of the 'Northern Warhammer', and was sent to the Knights to feed the horses because he offended the priest of the church, but his swordsmanship was so powerful that many knights could not defeat my father, otherwise he would not have escaped from Eternal Winter with his mother and sister with only one man and one sword. Victor spoke of his father with a look of pride on his face.
"Mr. Cooler is truly an amazing father. Sean nodded, then he took out two long iron rods from his bracelet, threw one to Victor, and raised his chin at the boy: "Come on, Victor, use all your skills, let me see your strength." ”
The boy looked at Sean suspiciously, "May I ask who you are?"
Sean played the iron rod in his hand into a sword flower, and put on a standard offensive posture in a chic manner: "You can just be the swordsmanship instructor invited by my sister." ”
Victor saw Sean's few blows, his eyes suddenly lit up, the other party looked very young, he didn't expect that he seemed to be a more powerful existence than his father in swordsmanship, he happily agreed, raised the iron rod high with both hands, and rubbed his body up.
After a fight, Sean patted the panting Victor on the shoulder and said approvingly: "It's not bad, it's very basic, and I can see that I've done a lot of hard work." Have you fought Mad Jack before, and what is the strength of the other party?"
Victor lowered his head and said indignantly: "Don't look at that guy from elementary school swords, but he is very lazy, and now martial arts are commonplace, but he is slightly bigger than me, and his father is rich, and his equipment is much better than ordinary people, which is amazing." If you give me the same equipment as him, I'm sure I'll be able to win him. ”
"Ha~"
Helen, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, couldn't help laughing when she heard this, she stepped forward to wipe the sweat on Victor's face, and said gently: "Victor, you are looking for the right person, your brother Sean has nothing else, but there are really a few pieces of good equipment." ”
Then she glanced at Sean with a smile in her eyes: "For example, in the bracelet he wears on his hand, there are many rare good things!"
