Chapter 148: Conflict

next morning.

Verquist and Nerissa did not show up for morning training.

Eorca looked surprised.

Where did they go? You didn't escape immediately after arriving, did you?

No, they went to the first floor.

Why on the first floor?

They asked me some time ago.

Nerissa came to my room early yesterday morning.

The request was to remove two people from tomorrow's training plan. I agreed immediately.

Eorca's complexion brightened.

So, how's your training going today?

Now that we're both gone, we have to increase the intensity.

Oh no!

Eorka received her extra sandbag this morning.

And in the afternoon.

It was late at night when the two of them showed up at the practice range. I sheathed my sword and approached them.

Are you ready?

As much as possible.

Nerissa answered.

Verquist remained expressionless, but his eyes showed determination.

Jenna.

Yes, I'm ready.

Jenna was practicing at the shooting range when she came down.

Jenna looked between the two of them, wiping her sweat with a towel.

Are you both ready? My dad said it was once in a lifetime.

Ready.

I'll climb first.

Jenna gracefully stepped onto the training ground.

Two daggers are attached to the left belt, and a short bow and quiver are attached to the right.

Do what we discussed.

Nerissa whispered to Verquist.

Verquist frowned for a moment, but then relaxed.

Finally, the two entered the training field. The iron bars closed with a loud bang.

The rules are the same as yesterday. If you use real weapons, there are no further restrictions. You only get one chance.

Okay.

Nerissa pulled out her rapier.

Verquist also brandished his dagger. He stood at attention and muttered, ``This isn't right, but I have no choice.''

The duel began.

As usual, Jenna started the attack.

Huh?

Jenna did not reach for his arrow and hesitated for a moment. At the same time, Verquist and Nerissa froze, sprawling sideways.

Anyway, this is it!

Jenna's arrow was aimed at Nerissa.

Nerissa had weaker throwing resistance than Velquist. Killing the weaker ones first was a wise decision.

However, Verquist, who was standing next to her, suddenly moved and smashed the arrow aimed at Nerissa.

Then Nerissa threw her dagger.

Jenna narrowly escaped the blade. At the same time, a second round of shots was fired. Jenna had the ability to consistently shoot from any position. Five arrows were aimed at various vulnerable places on Nerissa's body.

I can see it now.

[Skill awakening!]

[Velquist () has acquired throwing resistance!]

When Verquist swung his sword, an arrow fell at the same time.

Verquist charged towards Jenna, his sword at his side.

Too far.

Jenna calmly blocked his attack with an arrow.

The distance between the two of them had not yet narrowed. That was still Jenna's territory. Five arrows are aimed at Velquist's weak points and gaps in movement.

Verquist dodged one arrow and deflected two.

Two arrows remained. Verquist continued his attack with the inevitable trajectory and speed. Suddenly, Nerissa appeared from behind and smashed the two arrows with her rapier.

It took me two days.

It took 2 days.

I sighed.

If we can't do it alone, we can do it together.

They made a fuss because they didn't know about such a simple thing.

Verquist and Nerissa compensated for each other's weaknesses, breaking through the arrow flames and closing the distance with Jenna.

Then they broke up.

And they merged at the same time.

It's over.

Ah!

Jenna avoided Verquist's attack by jumping backwards and kicking his bars.

A short sword drove Jenna back. Then, Nerissa jumped into the same position and attacked with her rapier. At the same time, Verquist thrust up from below.

Phew!

Jenna's posture collapsed, and her dress was torn.

Before her girlfriend could calm down, Nerissa grabbed her.

The dagger was at Jenna's throat.

It's over.

Did you lose?

Jenna scratched her head.

It's very simple.

Verquist muttered in disappointment.

I smiled and moved forward.

You struggled all day because you didn't know this simple thing.

If you had watched the battle in the boss stage, you would have seen that the power of the group takes precedence over the power of the individual. They just didn't accept it emotionally. I just helped them understand it.

I passed anyway. Remember this feeling?

Will I be able to defeat my seniors with this fighting style?

Would you like to try it?

I drew my sword.

And, of course,.

Both were completely defeated by me.
