Vega stood on a pole not far away, and watched as a mage and knight drew their swords for melee combat.

Gwen wears standard armor to protect all parts of her body, and then looks at Victor.

Under the trench coat, his whole body was wrapped in protective gear, as if he was packaged as a knight.

These were the ones Gwen forced Victor to wear.

Although Victor has always insisted that his trench coat has enough defense, Gwen has never believed it.

What kind of defense can this trench coat have? Nothing but handsome.

Victor said he loved to hear it.

So after Gwen's repeated requests, he finally agreed to wear protective gear.

At the moment when the helmet was fastened, Victor stood in place, holding a long sword in his hand, wearing armor and a trench coat on the outside of the armor, which felt quite nondescript.

Kevlar sat not far from the arena and watched everything, his face full of confusion and puzzlement.

She's here to watch the fight, and by the way, if Gwen hits too hard, she'll be ready to save Victor.

Although, however, she was still confused.

What are these two people doing?

When he heard that Victor was suddenly going to practice with Gwen for a while, Kevlar thought that Victor had opened his mind and knew that he had come to Gwen to maintain his relationship.

As a result, Victor made an unexpected request - no magic use, pure melee sparring.

Kevlars are stupid.

Isn't it, you're a mage, and you're going to fight a knight in close combat?

She just wanted to pull Gwen's shirt and was about to secretly make Gwen refuse.

After all, Gwen knows what she is like, as long as she fights, she must be serious.

It doesn't matter if it will be injured or not, the main thing is that he is afraid that Victor will lose face and will not be able to hang up.

It affects the relationship between husband and wife, how bad it is.

As a result, Gwen agreed as a matter of course.

Kevlar stood not far away with a bewildered expression, watching the two of them stand in the training ground.

I hope my brother-in-law won't be beaten too badly. ’

Kevlar prayed silently in his heart, but don't hurt his feelings.

"Little Gwen too, let Victor if necessary."

Gwen asked:

"Are you ready?"

Victor held his sword in one hand and nodded.

Gwen didn't understand why Victor was holding a sword in one hand, but she had seen Victor use his own sword before.

Her silver sword was wielded casually by Victor.

This shows that Victor has definitely practiced, and if you underestimate him, he may really overturn.

Coupled with the inexplicable irritability in her heart, she always wanted to beat Victor.

So Gwen used twelve points of power as soon as he came up!

Gwen lunged forward, swung his sword at him, and roared like a ferocious beast.

Victor subconsciously raised his long sword in front of him.

Clang!

Victor moved fluidly and fended off Gwen's first attack, but was forced to take a few steps back due to the force.

He felt the arm holding the sword tingling, and he couldn't help but complain a little in his heart.

That's a lot of strength. ’

Although Gwen is nowhere near as powerful as she will be in the future, she is also a battle-hardened knight after all.

The battle is triggered, and Gwen's level and health bar are revealed.

Lv31。

In other words, it is a knight who has just entered the third-order realm.

'It's about the same level as Chull. ’

But Gwen is naturally stronger than the Bjul, both in terms of strength and skill.

Victor tested Gwen's strength and thought silently in his heart.

Kevlar covered her eyes and didn't dare to look at it, she didn't want to see her little brother-in-law knocked to the ground by Gwen at the first move, which would be too embarrassing.

Her body had begun to stand on end unnaturally, and her heart collapsed:

"Oops, oops, it's a shame!"

As soon as Kevlar's words fell, he heard a clanging sound of metal, and his hands split a slit, and his eyes looked through it.

And then......

"Huh?"

How can Victor go back and forth with Gwen?

Although Victor was clearly at a disadvantage and was pressed and beaten by Gwen, the situation she had in mind did not arise.

No, it's ???

Is Victor really a mage?

Gwen stepped hard, stretched out his sword, and slammed it in Victor's direction.

The ground suddenly flew with sand and stones, and then a powerful impact, Gwen pierced the sky at an astonishing speed, and instantly came in front of Victor.

Gwen slashed at Victor's hem, and Victor subconsciously leaped into the air to avoid the blow.

He adjusted his stance in the air, but before he could hit the ground.

In the next second, Gwen's attacks followed.

Victor adjusted his stance and stood his sword in front of him, barely resisting.

However, under the dense blade, there were still a few scratches on the armor on Viktor's body.

Victor took the opportunity to swing a sword at Gwen.

Gwen's eyes widened suddenly, he didn't expect Victor to be able to pull out and continue the attack under such a dense attack.

She took a small step back, dodging the sudden sword.

At this point, Gwen was incredulous about Victor's strength.

Although she knew that Victor could use a sword, she didn't expect Victor to be so handy.

It's even because Victor, as a mage, isn't physically strong.

If Victor's strength is greater, is it himself who is being pressed and beaten?

However, Gwen did not let up because of this, but once again raised her sword and slashed at Victor.

Victor landed on the ground, staring at the sword that followed.

He waited, waited for the sword to fall.

Just as Gwen's long sword was about to slash into his face, in an instant, Victor's hand, which had been empty, showed a round shield!

Bell ——!

A crisp sound reached Victor's ears.

He looked at Gwen, who had taken a few steps back, and shook her head, looking dizzy.

He succeeded, successfully reversing Gwen's attack.

Victor was satisfied.

He was satisfied with the effect of the [Evil Knight], and in this way, he would be able to easily fight against opponents whose melee abilities were completely higher than his own.

Gwen recovered quickly, and the vertigo didn't have much effect on her.

However, his mage's physical physique has almost reached its limit, and he no longer has the strength to fight like he just did.

Victor was out of breath, and without the magic blessing buff, he was indeed a little reluctant to melee with a knight like Gwen.

So he motioned for Gwen to pause.

"Take a break."

Victor now felt a little emotional.

It was the first time he had felt so comfortable since he came into this world.

The sore muscles, the hearty pleasure, and the battle with Gwen brought him back to his true feelings.

Gwen also stopped, she didn't feel tired, but she seemed a little silent now.

Victor, it really surprised her.

Gwen could tell that Victor was skilled in close combat.

His fighting skills, experience, and his reflexes show Gwen that he is a battle-hardened man.

But his physical fitness really can't match his combat experience.

Also, what's the deal with that round shield in his hand?

Kevlar and the others stopped fighting, hurriedly ran over, and came over with water and a towel and handed it to Victor.

Victor took it and thanked him lightly.

He wiped the sweat from his head with a towel and was about to open the kettle to drink, when Gwen came over with the smell of gunpowder.

"Drinking water directly after strenuous exercise is not good for your health."

“……”

Victor put down the kettle.

No way, it suddenly remembered that this was what he had said to Gwen.

It's really a grudge.

After resting for a while, until the sweat subsided, Victor took a sip of water.

As a result, Kevlar suddenly pointed to himself with a grin.

"Victor, I think you're pretty good."

"Do you want to practice with my sister?"

Victor was silent for a while, picked up the sword on the ground, and patted Kevlar's body, and Kevlar was stunned.

Soon, Victor's gaze saw the rank on Kevlar's head.

Lv39。

Victor ignored Kevlar, got up after enough rest, and looked up at Gwen.

"Let's move on."

……

After several hours, Victor sat on the ground without an image of himself, sweating profusely.

Gwen put her sword into her scabbard and said with some satisfaction:

"Not bad."

"I don't know why you suddenly want to start practicing swords, but if you need it next time, I'll ......"

Suddenly, Gwen was slightly stunned, and her voice was a little stumbling.

"I ...... That one...... Morning exercises, I have time to ......"

After blurting out this sentence, Gwen was a little depressed, would this make Victor misunderstand something?

also blamed himself for his quick mouth, Victor didn't ask, what did he say there.

But Victor said:

"Thank you, I do."

He's rested enough, and a cleansing magic cleanses the sweat from his body.

Gwen watched Victor suddenly become dry, and suddenly felt a little envious in her heart.

Victor nodded to her and said:

"I'm leaving, Gwen, and today I still need to be a teacher to Her Royal Highness."

Gwen knew he had something to do, so she nodded, and didn't respond much.

Victor suddenly asked her:

"Do you have any excess steel to sell me?"

Steel, a knight family like Delin will not be lacking at all.

After all, both weapons and armor require a lot of stainless steel.

Gwen nodded, but she was still a little confused:

"What do you want steel for?"

She didn't think about Victor's transfer, could it be that after being promoted to earl, she planned to gather some family knights for her family?

"Help me get some ready, I'm in need."

"Here's for you."

Victor pulled out a piece of golden parchment and handed it to Gwen.

"What is this?"

Gwen took the parchment and asked curiously.

"Once you're ready with the steel, you can use this to find my place."

With that, Victor turned and left.

Gwen nodded stunned and stood in place as Victor departed, the crow standing on his shoulder at some point.

Until Victor walked away and couldn't see the figure, Gwen was still standing there in a daze, and Kevlar elbowed Gwen when he saw this.

"Eh, what are you seeing? People are gone. ”

Gwen reacted and hurriedly explained.

"I just wanted to ask him if he had breakfast......"

When Kevlar heard this, he began to joke with her again:

"What, my little Gwen isn't angry?"

Gwen turned her head and explained, as if angry:

"I wasn't angry."

Kevlar looked at Gwen with a smirk and asked quietly;

"Really not angry?"

Seeing that Gwen didn't react, she sighed again on the side:

"Alas, Victor is really, obviously my little Gwen was dressed so beautifully on the day of the banquet, but he didn't even come to take a look."

Gwen puffed up her face and defended Kevlar, "I'm really not angry! ”

Hearing Gwen's stiff answer, Kevlar was still covering her mouth and smiling, comforting; "Okay, no anger, no anger."

However, after the joke, Kevlar's expression became a little more serious, and he asked Gwen:

"So, did you test Victor?"

"Is your righteous heart, really, invalid?"
