Chapter 189 3 years
In Mond, the sun has just risen, and the busy morning begins with the working hours of many people in the manor.
Farmers are working hard to sow seeds, and sheep and cattle herders are driving the sheep and cattle back to where they are.
At this moment, there are countless houses neatly arranged in one place in the manor, which is obviously as lively as a large village.
Ducas came to the stately fenced city wall and looked at the two knights standing guard at the gate, smiling and nodding on their horses.
"Hey! It's Mr. Ducas. You're here to spar with the owner again today."
At this time, a little boy rushed out from the gate guarded by the knight, holding the wooden sword high in his hand, and looked excitedly at the red-haired Ducas who was wearing a black suit and a long sword on his waist, his tone was very excited.
"Oh, it's you, kid. I didn't expect that you still wanted to be a knight in the past three years. I appreciate your determination, but you can't break the rules and sneak out. Look behind you."
The little boy was excited that his idol recognized his dream of becoming a knight. However, when he heard Ducas's expression, which looked like he wanted to say something but wanted to laugh, he finally realized that he was in big trouble. He turned around and saw a middle-aged woman with a gloomy expression standing in front of him. There was a complex mixture of helplessness and anger in her eyes. She looked up and said to Ducas with a smile:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ducas, I hope the child didn't cause you any trouble."
"No, no, I admire this child's strong will. Plus, he would come to me to practice swordplay secretly from time to time. I'm sure he will be a great knight in the future. As a mother, you should also consider what your child really wants."
Dicas rode his horse to the middle-aged woman and spoke in her ear, then rode into the gate of the manor.
The middle-aged woman sighed helplessly, looking at her son who was trembling and timidly standing beside her, and said without thinking:
"If Master Ye hadn't been so kind as to pull us back from the cold winter three years ago, you might not have had the time to practice swordsmanship. But seeing how lively you are, I should also consider your options after becoming a knight."
The boy's ears twitched, and then his eyes lit up as he looked at his mother. He seemed to understand the meaning of his mother's words and said excitedly:
"Mom, you don't object to me becoming a knight?"
The middle-aged woman smiled bitterly, and said with a helpless and relieved expression:
"After all, the Knight has spoken. It's only a matter of time before you become a knight. And you didn't even tell me about your secret sword practice with him. I know you've made up your mind. But you can't hide everything from mom in the future. Apart from privacy, just try to tell mom some things."
The boy nodded solemnly. He knew his mother's personality. He turned to look at Decas who had already ridden away on horseback, and said while holding the wooden sword tightly in his hand:
"I will definitely become a great knight and make my mother proud of me."
After the conversation with the boy's mother came to an end, Di Cass galloped through the residential area and came to the open space of the largest house in the manor. At this moment, a blond knight was waiting there with a sword in his hand, bored.
When Carlo saw Ducas riding over, he smiled and waved:
"Hey! Ducas, why are you so late?"
"I'm sorry, I have some family matters to attend to, so I'm a little late."
"Well, your family is like that anyway, so we should be thankful that the status quo is maintained."
Listening to his good friend's teasing, Di Casse smiled helplessly, then parked the horse in a nearby stable, and went to the open space to wait for someone to arrive with Carlo.
At this moment, the breeze blew up the sand, and the dense grass was bent by the wind pressure. At this moment, the door of the owner's house was wide open. No. 1 Ye Li walked out of the door with a sleepy look, looking at the two guys in the open space at the door, and said helplessly:
"You two are so hardworking. You came here to practice swordplay during your break time early in the morning. I really admire you two."
Facing the mocking look of the guy who was instructing them on swordsmanship during the sparring, the expressions of the two men, Red and Gold, darkened. They couldn't help but recall the scene when they were beaten up when they were practicing sword skills alone with him. Those were scenes from the past that were too painful to recall.
"Well, we have already paid the money, and your guidance has greatly improved our swordsmanship. Now we are stronger than the deputy leader of the Knights of the Lonely King of the High Tower. Perhaps it won't be long before Dicas and I can fight against the leader."
"Okay, I didn't take this money for nothing. After all, the contract is written there."
No. 1 Ye Li had no choice but to step on a sword from a corner of the door.
The iron sword flipped several times in the air and was held steadily in his hand. Then No. 1 Ye Li said seriously:
"Today we won't be following the usual routine sparring. You two will fight together, two against one. This will be a good opportunity to train your multiplayer combat abilities."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the two people, one red and one gold, were shocked, and then their eyes flashed with excitement. After someone was standing in the open space, the two of them rushed forward as they had agreed, and two sharp murderous auras locked onto No. 1 Ye Li.
"Yo, it looks like you two aren't going to hold back this time."
"After all, it's two against one. If we don't use all our strength, we won't have another chance in the future."
There was a sharp tone in Dicas's voice, and he crossed the lawn at the speed of an eagle. The sword in his hand gleamed in the sun and instantly flashed into the eyes of No. 1 Ye Li.
"Hey, you even know this move? I underestimated you."
No. 1 Ye Li narrowed his eyes, listened carefully, shifted his body to the left, raised his sword, and the sound of clinking metal rang out. Dicas pressed his sword forward with a serious expression, trying to maintain his advantage, while Carlo, who attacked from the side, swung his sword, and the weak force of wind accelerated his opponent's movements.
Speed brings power, and with the help of physical inertia, a gust of wind blew. No. 1 Ye Li let go of the sword at the moment of the collision between the two swords and rolled over, steadily avoiding the two attacks. Then he reached out to catch the long sword that was about to fall on the grass, flipped his body on the grass, and swung a circular slash, forcing back two people.
Opening his gray-blue eyes, No. 1 Ye Li slapped the ground with his palm, and flew into the air. He kicked his feet to both sides and successfully kicked away Dicas and Carlo, who had snatched the sword moves but had not yet reacted.
The two of them steadied their bodies at the same time, not daring to be careless at all, and began to circle around No. 1 Ye Li. Both of them were moving very fast, and their footsteps on the grass sent out a slight wind pressure.
Carlo took advantage of the moment when No. 1 Ye Li was looking at Dicas, and the wind power in his body burst out. A hurricane wrapped around his legs, and a gust of wind was raised the moment he stepped on the grass. The speed of his whole body and the sharp sound of the sword swinging made No. 1 Ye Li finally show a hint of satisfaction.
He turned around and took a series of steps backwards, and his long sword perfectly blocked Carlo's continuous attacks, constantly reducing the force and speed of his attacks. Even Carlo, who was blessed with the power of wind, was shocked by such reaction ability, as if he had seen it for the first time.
Dicas said that his physical strength burst out when the two were fighting, and he seized the moment when the two swords collided to cross a distance of more than ten meters in one step. The ground under his feet was stepped on and a footprint was left. His speed was so fast that it raised a breeze, and the whistling wind pressure brought the end of the battle as the sword was stabbed out.
No. 1 Ye Li stopped paddling and put away that faint smile. He increased his strength and speed and narrowly avoided the attack from the two men. He swung his sword fiercely. With a clang sound, two silver swords turned into wheels in the sky and flew out. The huge force made Dicas and Carlo's arms numb and they couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Both swords fell to the grass, but only one emerged victorious.
