Daejeon Battle/(Single Combat) (4)

Chris victory was shocking for everyone.

But people accepted the reality when they saw Jansson's head rolling on the floor, they thought it was possible because he was Chris, who is considering genius swordsman in Cairo.

And also because Chris is disciple of Jonathan.

[ It was not something common for the people but it was not impossible with the help of Jonathan's teachings.

The problem was in this match, people where able to accept the winner of the fight between Chris and Jansson, but when they saw Homer's body on the arena floor and blood flowed out from our from his body made people watching the match completely dumbfounded.

To them Homer was not a person that could be expressed simply with the word "strong".

He was master aura swordsman who has been on the rankings before becoming 4 stars aura swordsman, and now he had a chance of surpassing the 30th rank in the Valhalla Empire.

But he died in front of them. ]

Without even able to displaying the power of 4-star aura, Roman's cut Homer sword and body at the same time.

Seeing these people around exclaimed.

" Uh, how did this happen? "

" Am I dreaming now, Homer was defeated so easily! "

[ Of course, they thought Roman Dimitry would die.

Knowing that his opponent was Homer and not abstaining was just showing bravery, and people didn't even think 1% of the time Roman would win. But now seeing the situation people couldn't say anything.

Aside from the fact that it was an important battle because it will decide victory and defeat, many people blink there eye to check whether they are seeing the seen in front of them is correct or not. ]

'A guy who didn't even reach the peak of the strength of the world to be this arrogant.'

Roman was disappointed on the Homer behaviour.

Homer was the strongest person Roman had ever experienced in the Salamander Continent, but Roman's evaluation criteria of people are not from this world, but from his previous life.

Moorim was place unlike here, where even as Cheonma Baek Joong-hyeok, had to be prepared to die if he was careless and because of these Roman fighting techniques was very effective, but fighting techniques of people here is garbage.

On the Homer's sword strike, people admired the aura that was displayed in polarity, but Roman sighed at the burst of energy that leaked out one after another.

So he ended the fight quickly because he knew it was meaningless since he knew he will easily.

Homer did not become Roman opponent, and his burning desire to win against a stronger opponent was extinguished at once.

Roman said "Judge. Please declare the results."

Now people realised in the three match showdown, the Lawrence family has already secured the title of winner.

Chris swallowed from his dry mouth.

As he watched the battle between Roman and Homer, his palms were wet with sweat.

' This is the Master's Roman true skill.'

In fact, he could not clearly see the technique which had Roman performed.

When Chris saw Roman first battle, Roman at that time was obviously not as strong as he is now.

He looked like someone who couldn't use his aura, and he was humiliated by losing to Roman in a situation where he can purely use only his swordsmanship.

After that, Chris found out the truth.

Roman was dealing with mana in a different way, and unlike the image of Dmitry's nerd, Roman was genius in dealing with mana .

The only problem was that Roman level was not clear to him at that time.

So in this war Chris had a good opportunity to see the true power of Roman.

When dozens of soldiers were slaughtered.

He understood if it is Roman who he knew after his first sword battle with him, it would be possible.

And frankly, he was a little surprised when Roman blew off the neck of the 2-star aura swordsman, Berge, and broke the flare.

Finally he also overwheled Homer.

People around thought that Homer was careless and did not use the 4-star aura, but Homer, was displaying the 3-star aura to the extreme, his boy was cut into two pieces along the sword.

It was truly an overwhelming scene.

Even Chris, who thought he knew Roman well, was shocked by the situation.

'Did master Roman have this level of skill since he fought me? Or, has it was achieved by rapid growth since fighting with me? I can't understand anything about these anymore. In the former case, master Roman at that time was clearly not strong enough to overwhelm Homer, and for the latter, the time was too short, How the hell is this possible?'

He didn't even dare to anticipate the truth.

About 2 months, after defeating Chris.

Roman developed himself in turn, by firstly undergoing skeletal formation.

By demonstrating his brilliance, he advanced into a realm that Chris could not even dare to reach.

It was such a rapid growth rate that no similar example could be found in these world or even in his previous Moorim.

It was possible because he was Baek Jung-hyeok, who was called the best in the world, and it was quite natural for Chris that he could not understand Roman's growth.

After coming Victoria's against Jansson.

Chris thought that maybe one day would come when he would surpass Roman.

But that was an illusion for him.

Now that he has confirmed Roman's true skill, Chris has a sense of awe as well as a sense of frustration.

'Now when I think about my promise back then was premature of me.'

Chris thought he would be loyal until he surpassed his master.

Only now, Chris was starting to realise just how hasty his promise was.

The Daejeon battle now can be considered to be over and Lawrence's victory is granted.

Now there was nothing to see, but as Count Ertes, who was in charge of the Daejeon battle, it was his duty to take responsibility for the battle until the very end.

"The battle of the great warriors has to go through three battles to the end. Since the win and loss has already been decided, both sides may send out a new fighter in consultation."

It was Count Ertes tolerance for losers.

Since there was no reason to waste manpower in a battle that was sure to be defeated, he gave Barco a chance to choose between Pride and lose.

Even on the words of Count Ertes.

Viscount Barco couldn't come to his senses.

From the moment Homer fell and blood flowed out from his body, Viscount Barco felt like his sky was falling apart.

'it's over.'

His mind went blank.

In the dispute with Lawrence, Viscount Barco did his best.

He deliberately manipulated documents to induce a fight with Lawrence, and he spent an astronomical amount of money in these process by using the connections of the central government to summon Count Ertes late.

But there was a catch in these all plan, money they have spent it was not belonging to Barco's.

Unlike Lawrence, who had fertile land, and Dmitry, who printed money from iron mines, Barco wasn't a very wealthy family, so Viscount Barco borrowed all the money for the war from the Golden Bank.

His legs were trembling, he know the meaning of a credit loan.

Instead of collateralizing nothing, he knew that a huge interest rate would soon be coming to Barco.

But there was only question in Viscount Barco mind 'Why was Homer so easily defeated? Homer is a 4 star aura swordsman. Unlike the gossips in the northeast area, he is a real swordsman who has wandered around the kingdom to fight with the powerful people. But losing like this doesn't make sense. This is clearly a conspiracy of the mercenary guild. They sent me a disguise that wasn't Homer, so that fake guy was killed without defeating Dmitry's nerd.'

He ignored the reality in front of him and did not believe the situation in front of him.

Because he knows the price he will pay is huge.

Viscount Barco's eyes trembled anxiously, even after checking Homer's face, he believed that it wasn't real.

" Lord. We need to get our fighters out."

One of the knights spoke cautiously.

According to the original plan, the two-star knight was decided to take the third turn.

However, now that Barco's great warriors were killed twice, they could not sacrifice the knights.

But Viscount Barco didn't even bother with the alternative situation.

"We cannot lose our last hope. Send Benson out for next round. Since he's the guy who dishonored Barco at the social party, I'll give him a chance to make up for it in this showdown.

'Okay.' after replying the knight withdrew with a slightly stiff expression.

The knight thought it was a loss for them.

To send people in the third round to him mean's it means go and die, but also Benson had no reason to refuse the Daejeon battle.

In the last social party, Benson was the knight who had an argument with Kevin.

It was okay to laugh at Dmitry in there back, but the problem was that he was unilaterally beaten by Roman in front of everyone.

The incident at that time became a huge case among the aristocrats.

It was a case that showed the difference between Dmitry and Barco, and Benson was disciplined and relegated for that responsibility.

It was his last chance.

In order to survive as a knight of Barco, even knowing the fact that he was discarded hand, he could not avoid the Daejeon battle.

"I am Benson representing Barco."

Last match of the Daejeon battle.

As Benson stepped forward, there was a commotion in Lawrence's camp.

As the knight of Lawrence who was scheduled for the third match he started to step towards the arena, but a figure suddenly popped out before he could step in the arena.

"I will deal with him."

A dwarf child.

Wearing a helmet that didn't suit him, he looked up at Roman and showed a determined expression.

It was Kevin

At the sudden interruption, Lawrence's knight spoke with a stern voice.

"What kind of position would an ordinary soldier take? Even if the opponent is not strong, he is not a person you can deal with. The Daejeon battle is a sacred place for Lawrence's honor. Seeing Master Roman's face, I'll forgive you this time, so hurry up and step back.

He shouted due to Kevin's sudden action.

According to the military law, it was deserving of punishment.

Lawrence's knight was right, but Viscount Lawrence, whom he followed, watched the situation silently.

everyone knew

Viscount Lawrence and Flora too.

The fact that Roman Dmitry, who led the Daejeon battle to victory, has the authority to accept Kevin's request.

Roman looked down at Kevin.

'You foolish guy.'

It was a stupid decision made by Kevin.

Although Kevin has been developing rapidly lately, fighting against a sturdy adult prosecutor was a risky choice.

Still, Kevin said he would fight.

Whether it was a choice to repay Benson for what he had suffered, or whether he risked his life to prove his worth, he did not know why but he let go and answered.

"Go."

Roman liked Kevin's choice.

[ In the world where weak was always under the strong

No rights are granted to those people who have been defeated without having strength to fight back. ]

Due to the event at the social gathering party.

People were saying that Roman had a wonderful revenge for his subordinates, but behind the scenes was a weak subordinate who was trying to defend his master dignity who was insulted in front of him.

People didn't take Kevin seriously, Kevin wasn't Chris, and they barely felt anything for Kevin and Kevin was in a situation where a boy soldier could not do anything.

So that why Kevin had to step forward to take part in the third match.

Staying by Roman's side, he knew what Roman valued.

Kevin said, 'I'll be there soon what master Roman valued.'

Seeing him get up from his seat with a ferocious face, the people of Lawrence couldn't stop Kevin's.
