Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 979
Chapter 979,
Chapter 242. Eltiot (2)
“What? teach me?”
Eltiot nodded.
It was an absurd story for Luna. I know that Eltiott was a Qingming tribe devotee, but he’s willing to teach me anything.
“That’s right, Luna Runcandel.”
Silence passed for a while.
Should I say it’s a fresh shock, or should I say I’ve seen all these rude guys? Luna stared at Eltiot, unsure of exactly how she was feeling.
“Um… you have great confidence. Yes, I said Changseong.”
“It seems you don’t believe me.”
“It doesn’t matter whether you believe or not. Is it a bit out of the ordinary?”
“The world has changed. The great Myungwang family, and even the blue god of war, said that he would teach them himself, but such a lukewarm response. It was unimaginable in ancient times.”
Luna still couldn’t hide her bewilderment. Jin didn’t intervene because it was fun to see Luna like that.
“Do you know how many strong people in those days asked me to learn? I don’t know, you weren’t even born then. I rejected all of those earnest requests. because? Because they all fell short of my standards.”
“aha. okay? Does that mean I fit your criteria?”
“There is no arrogance, and imprudence is worse than a starving chicken.”
At least at that point, Jin almost burst into laughter.
“what? Arrogance… A hungry chicken?”
“Of course, you also fall short of my standards. It is true that your martial arts are particularly strong compared to the strong people of that time, but you do not feel it.”
Luna patiently waited for Eltiot’s next words. After all, he is a patient who has just
woken up from his bed.
“no.”
“You would be curious. It is the grudge and revenge that only those who have been trampled can have. As you can see, you have grown up very nicely. Even so, he has a firm and sharp will, but that’s all. You have no remorse.”
I would like to refute it, but Eltiot was able to accurately see through Luna’s troubles recently. Shiron himself said that Luna needed a harsh defeat.
“So you’re saying you’re going to wake me up?”
“Accurate. And I will also refine your swordsmanship, which is somewhat lacking in fundamentals. You ate wrong from the usual breathing.”
Eltiott was literally spitting out words that Luna had never heard before in her life.
Who the hell can say that the swordsmanship of the 1st rider of Runkandel, Baek Kyung, is fundamentally lacking? Even Shiron had never expressed such an expression. There were a few people who talked carelessly about being arrogant or careless, but all of them paid the price and disappeared to the back of the world.
“Huu, you cross the line too much. I understand what you mean, Eltiot. Contact me as soon as you feel better. Do sparring once. I need to see for myself whether you can take responsibility for the words you say.”
At those words, Eltiot sneered and shook his head.
“Why are you waiting until then? If there is a suitable place, let’s go right now.”
Eventually, thick veins rose up on Luna’s forehead and neck.
“I heard that you were the youngest. I can’t stand it any longer. Would it be all right if I half-killed this friend again today?”
“You sound like a hungry chicken again. Don’t worry Jin Runkandell. I’ll make sure to look at it in the right way.”
Luna’s whole body was already entwined with a flaming aura.
“I can’t just pass this rude provocation. Do as you wish. However, since it’s an exhibition right now, both of you have to do a clean sparring. It means that you shouldn’t go in and kill each other.”
“Don’t try that.”
“Even if I told you not to worry.”
So the party suddenly went to the underground arena.
“I heard about it. Can I go and have a look?”
“I want to go too!”
It was Veradin and Dante who were in the hospital room next door. These days, Dante has been visiting Veradin whenever he has a little free time.
The question was asked to Jin, but Veradin and Dante hesitated and looked at Luna. Luna took a stride as if it didn’t matter.
To Dante and Beradin, Luna was more mysterious than Jin. Both of them had grown up listening to the anecdotes and majesty of the White Whale since childhood.
Of course, in terms of objective inaction, Jin, who is now a Changseong, has the upper hand, but Jin is a friend to them. Of course, seeing Luna’s sword in person was more exciting than friends. Luna was still strangely difficult to approach even for the two of them.
“I didn’t ask for a great greeting, but I thought I’d hear a provocation before a greeting.”
Eltiot picked out a suitable sword from the arsenal at the training ground. It deserves to be called a great sword by general standards, but there was a feeling that it was insufficient to use against Luna.
“To teach you was the best expression of my gratitude. It’s deplorable that it was unpleasant… Let’s make one promise before we fight Luna Runkandel.”
“What is it?”
“The losing side is to follow the other person’s will without saying anything.”
“good night.”
Because of Luna’s aura and magical energy, a hot and fierce wind blew through the entire arena.
Jin, who was standing in the middle of the two, stepped back. meant to start.
jjwoong-!
The seon-gong was Luna. She struck Krantel down as if to kill Eltiot from the start, but she wasn’t in a state of excitement because of the previous provocation.
On the contrary, he had calm and cool eyes. It was because there was no reason to get caught up in the face of the opponent.
“Kuk!”
As soon as Eltiott received Luna’s attack, he vomited a handful of blood. The internal injury caused by the long sealing and runaway is Dojin.
However, even while spitting out blood, most of the fiercely falling Krantel were shed or avoided. It was a miracle that only those who reached the tip of the sword could show it.
“It’s rough, it’s too rough.”
I said that, but it wasn’t meant to get on Luna’s nerves.
Eltiot knew that Luna had closed her ears as she entered the fight. Unperturbed by any stimulus, Luna entered the fight in such a state.
“Such a rough sword is not suitable for a desperate person. Your sword should be nobler now. It’s out of balance, so you can’t break down the wall.”
Jin was concentrating on Eltiot’s voice as if he were commentating.
Somehow it occurred to me that he was saying the right thing.
‘Earlier, Eltiot said that my sister’s breathing was wrong from the beginning… I think I know what he meant after hearing that.’
To the uninhabited, breathing is also an indicator that informs the person.
Needless to say, Luna always breathed like a beast without enemies. There is no reason to spend time crouching in anticipation of an imminent crisis, and there is no need to pause to fool your prey.
Therefore, Luna’s breath was proof that she had always realized defeat from the position of the strong.
Eltiott was pointing out just that. In a life without natural enemies, Luna’s sword had accumulated without my knowledge.
Kwaaaak-! Luna dug into Eltiot’s arms and hit Krantel up. The moment Eltiott rose into the air, she had already jumped up and was holding onto Eltiott’s back.
Krantel Eltiot, who fell like a thunderbolt, managed to turn around and block Krantel with his sword. However, after the fall, Eltiot’s sword, which was restored to its stance, was split in half.
“You never know, just now was your chance to end this game.”
This time, Luna didn’t answer and started to push Eltiot again. Eltiott used the broken sword as it was shortened without attaching it to the brain.
But rather than the first time, Krantel flowed more gracefully. As the sword became shorter, Eltiott was responding with all his five senses.
“Swords that can topple mountains in one blow are great, and swords that are as fast as light and can easily take the life of an enemy are also great. But the finest sword resembles the wind.”
The moment Eltiot said that, a cool breeze suddenly blew in the middle of the training ground.
It was a completely different wind from the storms of sword energy that Luna had so fiercely summoned. The wind did not dissipate and did not leave the center of the training ground even while the aura flowed everywhere like a torrent.
But it wasn’t threatening. After trying to disperse the wind several times, Luna gave up and then jumped over and tried to close the distance with Eltiot again.
Unlike before, Eltiot did not avoid Luna falling like lightning.
Instead, just as Krantel was about to reach him, he stabbed the broken sword into Luna’s neck as quickly as half a beat.
There was a roar. The entire floor of the training ground was shattered by Krantel’s shockwave.
‘It’s an accident…!’
‘He must have died!?’
Dante and Beradin widened their eyes in fright. In their eyes, it was clear that Krantel had cut Eltiot in half.
Even Jin saw it that way at first. Even if Eltiot had avoided Krantel by stepping on foot at the end, the shock wave would have torn his entire body like a rag.
“It’s a win, Luna Runcandel.”
However, Eltiott stood still in the same position as the sword was stabbed.
Krantel also seemed to have stopped just before touching Eltiot’s left shoulder. The shock wave that shattered the entire training ground occurred the moment Krantel stopped.
Of course, the left side of Eltiot’s body was completely bruised. Her cheeks were stained red with blood, and her shoulders, chest, and even her thighs were torn so much that her muscles were visible.
However, it cannot be said to be fatal. A wound of that magnitude had no effect on Eltiott’s combat power.
Luna was fine without a single wound. Only the broken sword stopped in front of her face. Had the sword been intact, it would have pierced his head.
Luna couldn’t take her eyes off the sword in front of her for a while.
Of course, he entered because he knew that the sword was broken. However, it was not in Luna’s calculations that Eltiott responded in this way.
‘Even if the sword… was intact, I would have been able to avoid it.’
I could be sure of that. But that wasn’t the case after that.
‘Instead, my posture would have seriously collapsed, and if Eltiot started a counterattack in the gap. From then on, the battle must have turned in an instant.’
Of course, neither Luna nor Eltiot know what will happen if they fight to the end after that. In the first place, it was a fight where neither of them used their full strength.
Considering Eltiot’s condition and the purpose of the sparring, Luna did not use the decisive battle and the secret technique, the red sword, and Eltiot was in a state where he could not show all the might of his heyday.
However, Luna was accepting the fact that she was defeated in Dalian. The one who stopped the sword first was himself.
“After that I lost. Eltiot.”
“what!? Hey Dante Jean. How did Baek Kyung-nim lose this? Over there, Eltiott is bleeding profusely.”
“I think I know roughly… but it’s complicated to explain. I’ll wrap it up and tell you later.”
“Yes, listen to Dante.”
In the meantime, Eltiott shook his body like a dog to shake off the blood and approached Luna.
“What did you say?”
“They said I lost.”
A bunch of Eek-!
When Eltiot suddenly screamed, Luna looked at him startled.
“Yeah man! Are pupils supposed to speak flatly to their masters!? Hurry up and say it again!”
Luna was speechless for a while and her mouth didn’t come out.
