The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 21

Chapter 21 Blind Trust (3)

It was the same for Kevin who was embarrassed by the situation right in front of him.

Kevin said with a white face in the atmosphere where the proxy match was being held without his intention.

“Are you telling me to have a substitute sparring with Knight Knight Chris? That is nonsense. I’m just a kid who’s been practicing swordsmanship for a week at most, but isn’t Knight Chris a skilled person who uses a 2-star aura?”

It was a natural reaction.

chris.

Who is he?

A disciple of Jonathan, leader of the Dmitri Knights, and a genius swordsman recognized by Dmitry.

It is not an opponent that ordinary people can afford.

Besides, Kevin isn’t usually good at fighting, he’s just a teenager.

No matter how much you fight, you have to do it, but in life, there are fights with obvious results.

Roman said.

“I know. that you are at a disadvantage But do you have anything to lose by losing in Dalian?”

“… doesn’t exist.”

“There is a fact that you should keep in mind from now on. There are countless people stronger than you in the world. Blood Fang, who oppressed and used violence against your family, was like that, and Chris, who is glaring at you right in front of his eyes, is no different. Will you take a step back every time because the opponent is strong? If not, you need to take this situation differently now.”

A boy in his mid-teens.

Kevin is young.

Although he was still at an age that required mental care, he had to live differently from before if he had chosen the use as a sword.

“Dalian is not a real battle. All you have to lose from this sparring is the frustration and physical pain of barely losing. So, don’t you think this is a great opportunity? A chance to fight with all your might against an enemy much stronger than yourself. Even if it involves physical pain in the process, I don’t think it will be able to break your will to be strong, even cutting off your own arm.”

Life has borders.

common people’s life.

aristocratic life.

And a life as a swordsman who has to sacrifice his life to become stronger.

Roman looked at Kevin, who was still a teenager, and told him to completely break down that line.

Like cutting off your own arm.

Face the enemy, Chris.

Even if this is a real fight, show off your evil sword against Chris.

“What are you afraid of?”

gulp.

Kevin swallowed dryly.

The relationship with Roman was a series of choices.

There was no law forcing one path, and in order to follow him, he told me how to walk on my own.

My throat is burned.

chris.

To think that he had to fight an opponent he looked up to while watching a procession of knights.

It was a reality that was unimaginable before, but from the moment he cut off his arm, Kevin became a different person.

“… Let’s try it.”

had poison.

Seeing Kevin gripping the sword tightly, Roman smiled lightly.

Kevin and Chris.

The two men faced each other.

In a situation that proved that the fight was unfavorable from his physique, Chris felt as if his blood was gushing backwards.

‘To think I had to compete with beginners to win or lose.’

It was a miserable feeling.

see your opponent

Kevin’s posture was a mess.

Still, I thought there must have been a reason for Roman’s suggestion of proxy engagement, but the appearance of him holding a sword while looking at himself was truly spectacle.

He had no experience as a prosecutor.

Even at a glance, it was full of loopholes, and the unbalanced lower body raised doubts about whether it would be able to properly defend.

last week.

Time was too short to digest all the teachings.

As Chris thought, Kevin wasn’t a genius, and he wasn’t even qualified to be called a prosecutor yet.

so that.

‘It’s pitiful.’

A sense of wonder arose.

25 year old Chris.

He learned swordsmanship through Jonathan from a young age and spent most of his life sweating blood as a swordsman rather than living as a commoner.

The sword is his pride. Due to his innate talent and efforts to develop more than anyone else, he achieved the feat of reaching the level of two stars in his mid-twenties.

If you enter the 3-star ranks before the age of 30.

He, who was evaluated as a talent in the periphery, can emerge as a divinity of the Cairo kingdom in an instant.

That’s who Chris is.

It’s not a talent to be ignored anywhere just because it’s rotting in Dmitri.

‘I don’t know what the hell you’re thinking, but this time it was wrong. Variables also have limits. If I lose against Kevin, I will completely give up my life as a prosecutor after this confrontation.’

It was a desperate promise.

I didn’t even want to engage in sparring.

but.

The reason why he was holding the sword until he made up his mind was because of Kevin’s eyes looking at him.

“It really bothers me from one to ten.”

Eyes filled with poison.

Kevin was serious.

As if he could defeat Chris, he was showing an attitude of sincerely trying to engage in this confrontation.

So it got hotter.

The other party did not know the subject.

Because he did not know how humble and lowly he was, he was trying to deal with himself who had dedicated himself to the sword for decades without even swinging the sword.

Roman admitted. Roman, who clashed swords directly, was a man who deserved it, but Kevin deserved to be punished for just his eyes.

‘I’ll finish it in one minute.’

closely.

I gripped my sword tightly.

It was then.

“start.”

Roman signal.

When we finally announced the start of the sparring, Chris immediately kicked the ground.

Dalian this time.

There was no reason to waste time.

Chris dug into the space in an instant and attacked Kevin’s loophole, which hadn’t come to his senses yet.

Fuck!

A dull sound was heard.

I don’t know if it was intentional or accidental, but Kevin blocked Chris’s attack with a narrow gap.

But that’s it.

Kevin’s arms bounced back at the difference in strength.

Kevin tried to block his exposed chest with a puzzled face, but Chris’ kick hit his stomach before he knew it.

puck!

“Cheak!”

I screamed.

It was such a shock that it made me feel dizzy, and Kevin was knocked out with just one kick.

In fact, the game was over with just one attack.

Chris did not push the opponent further, but glanced at Roman to see how he judged the situation.

‘Are you sure you want to see the game?’

Roman was calm.

After silently explaining the rules of the match, Chris looked away and immediately attacked Kevin.

‘Let’s finish it at once.’

A sword aimed at the opponent’s arm.

Kevin, who had been moaning in pain until just now, jumped up from his seat at Chris’ attack and threw himself.

Suddenly, the sound of the wind cutting through Kevin’s ears rang.

In a situation where it would not have been strange if he had been hit, even if his arm was broken, goose bumps ran through Kevin’s whole body.

difference in skill.

It was clear.

It was a mountain that Chris couldn’t dare to touch, but right after Kevin avoided the attack, he swung his sword as if it were a counterattack.

swish

The sound of the sword was different.

It was slow and light.

Chris casually let go of the attack and once again inserted a kick into the opponent’s abdomen.

Fuck!

“Kuuk!”

swallowed a groan

Kevin, who had endured the pain of having his arm cut off, staggered with a face that looked like it was about to explode.

It did not fall over even with a strong impact.

Barely taking a step forward, he avoided the follow-up attack, but Kevin was so helpless and weak that fighting was virtually meaningless.

One-sided confrontation.

It was strange.

Roman suggested sparring as if he were confident, but Kevin failed to show the qualifications of a winner.

‘What the hell is the intention.’

ten steps away.

Roman watched the situation.

It was said that the meaning of the proxy fight was to use Kevin as an avatar, but he didn’t even show how to teach something with training (肉聲).

In the end, the story was as expected.

The situation would not have changed if Roman had told him how to trump, but he was rather angry at the futile game.

Cucumber!

continuous attack.

Kevin’s arms trembled.

Chris’s attack could not be sustained with willpower alone, and while his posture was disturbed, Chris’ blows exploded all over Kevin’s body.

It was Chris’ concern.

Even though it was a sparring with wooden swords, Chris deliberately did not use his sword at the perfect opportunity, hoping that his opponent would not be fatally injured.

Just that much.

A difference in level was observed.

Even if Kevin struggled, he couldn’t overcome the wall of Chris, who had been training for decades.

at last.

puck!

“… gurgling.”

I bite the froth of blood on the fist that was burning in my stomach.

Kevin staggered as if he were about to kneel, and Chris let out an angry voice at Kevin.

“Just give up.”

The match is over.

Even though there were already several opportunities to finish it, Chris was just considerate.

but.

Kevin endured with evil.

He forcibly grabbed his wobbly legs and aimed his sword at the opponent as if to block the next attack.

‘Why are you doing this?’

Kevin’s appearance.

It was miserable.

As he rolled on the ground several times, his clothes became rags, and his red-stained abdomen was visible through his torn top.

And he spat blood out of his mouth.

It seemed that the internal organs had suffered a great shock, and the thick blood that came out chilled the heart.

it was the limit

This could be a really dangerous situation.

Even though the win or loss was clear, Chris could not comprehend the figure of Kevin aiming his sword.

“Don’t be mistaken as if you’re a great person just because you’ve been attacked a few times. From the beginning and throughout the sparring. I’ve never tried my best I could have smashed your tofu-like head from the first exchange of workshops in the first place, but since this is sparring, I put my circumstances in my hands. that’s the difference between you and me I don’t know what your thoughts were in responding to this sparring, but if an ordinary person who doesn’t even know how to use mana endured this much, I think you did well enough.”

told the truth

A showdown between Chris and Roman.

It was different back then.

Chris couldn’t defeat Roman even with all his heart, but Kevin didn’t even have to do his best.

power of a word.

That alone has changed Kevin horribly.

And this was the limit of patience Chris could accept.

“I will say it one last time. If you show the will to fight more, be prepared to cripple a body.”

It’s a final warning.

It was the last consideration.

Kevin is just a puppet.

He had no reason to vent his anger.

A smile came to Kevin’s face, embarrassingly, when he was told to admit the reality.

“Kwuk kuk.”

laughed

As if he couldn’t stand it without laughing, Kevin didn’t bother to hide the laughter rising from within.

And then

sigh.

“Do it until the end.”

I gripped the sword properly.

I knew Chris wasn’t wrong.

but.

This confrontation, which only seemed one-sided, was completely different in Kevin’s world.

from start to finish.

Kevin followed Roman’s instructions and therefore had no intention of giving up on this match without Roman’s orders.
