Episode 29.
Reason for fighting (4)
Murmur.
The area around the training hall was full of late expats and guard warriors who had come after hearing rumors.
Of course, there was a response team, and their expressions were truly miserable.
“Your Majesty!”
“Oh god, great lord.”
“What on earth is going on?”
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
“It’s complicated to explain. Anyway, that’s how it happened.”
Shinmo’s expression hardened.
“It’s not possible. “You need to cancel this meeting right now.”
“That’s not allowed.”
“Grand Duke! “The author is…!”
“I know well the skills of that beast. No matter what his personality, his solid prayer was impressive. “I think we fought quite fiercely.”
He felt the other person’s power with just his senses.
Normally, I would be amazed by his excellent senses, but now was not the time.
“I will personally go and cancel this meeting.”
“Shin Daeju.”
“Your Majesty!”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“If you make a fuss and say you want to cancel this meeting, you are actually damaging the reputation of your family.”
“…!”
“So I said the situation was complicated? Just believe what happened and wait. “It is not a virtue of a subordinate to just worry.”
Shinmo bit her lip.
Why doesn’t he know what Yeonhojeong means? But even if the opponent was bad, it was too bad.
That Chu-seong was an expert that even he wasn’t confident about dealing with easily. Of course, if you break the ‘seal’, you can overwhelm him within the sum of three, but even with the power of Chang-eung Dae-ju, which the world knows, he is a master who is worthy of a close match.
I know Yeon Ho-jeong’s martial arts skills from first-hand experience, but it is difficult for Chu Seong. And Chuseong will not take matters into his own hands just because he is the grand duke of the Yan family.
“By the way, what did I ask for?”
“yes? Ah yes! “I’m keeping it.”
“I didn’t bring it. “What happened?”
Yeon Ho-jeong lifted the window that had been set aside. It was a long spear a little over six feet long, obtained from a nearby blacksmith shop.
“Are you using… a spear? “Aren’t you going to deal with me using baton techniques?”
“The window is better.”
At that time, I saw the Jegal siblings and Yeon Ji-pyeong running from afar.
Yeon Ho-jeong quenched his appetite.
“I guess I should go up before I make a fuss.”
grasp!
He went up to the training ground.
I covered a distance of well over a day in just one step. It wasn’t like he was running with all his might, but rather he was moving with light footwork, as if he was flying.
Chu-seong, who was already on the training ground, was looking at Yeon-ho-jeong with his arms crossed.
“Are you ready?”
“What about that one?”
Chu Seong smiled. The expression on his face was as if there was any need to prepare to deal with you.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“There will be no need to drag it out for a long time. Shall we get started right away?”
“Okay. But is it spearmanship?”
“okay.”
Chu Sheng frowned.
“I heard that the main servant of Byeoksan Yeonga is Dogeom (刀劍)?”
“Is it even necessary to scold you?”
There was no provocation like this.
Tsutsutsutsu.
A violent spirit rose from Chu Seong’s body.
The noisy atmosphere suddenly became quiet. They were surprised by the unusual force that Chuseong gave off.
Strength was great, but the ferocity of his temperament was incredible. So much so that it reminds one of a carnivorous beast with its prey right in front of it.
On the other hand, what about Yeonhojeong?
Boom. Buuuung.
As I turned the polearm in my hand back and forth with just my fingers, the fallen leaves flew along the blade.
‘Well, it’s okay.’
The sense of balance is slightly different from that of an iron bar.
Now that I’ve noticed the ‘details’, it’s done. Just by recognizing that in my hands, it was as if half of the spear technique was already familiar to me.
Hehehe! Percussion!
The window, which had been rotating faster and faster, stopped elastically.
Yeon Ho-jeong, wearing a spear on his acromion, slightly lowered his posture.
Wooooow.
A light blue light flickered repeatedly in his pupils.
Chu Seong’s eyes lit up.
‘It’s pretty good.’
Jinki’s sense of stability was significant. It was worthy of being evaluated as first-class.
But that was all. At that age, that level of power was natural for a late member of the Seven Great Families.
‘That’s about it in the end.’
A faint look of disappointment appeared on Chu Seong’s face.
Still, I wondered if there was anything, but that was all there was to it. At least one attitude was plausible.
“Shall we begin?”
“Okay. “I will give you three seconds to eat.”
“Three seconds?”
Chu-seong chuckled.
“You are dealing with Danju of the Jeongeomdan (Warfare Division) newly created during the Great Namgung family. “I said I would hold you accountable, so shouldn’t I be given a three-second meal?”
It was a statement full of arrogance.
But he was a person qualified to say such things. Everyone who heard him acknowledged it.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was watching the silent chant, relaxed his posture.
Chu-seong tilted his head.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Three herbivores?”
“exactly.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes, which had been flickering blue, gradually became insensitive. Byeoknajingyeol was left behind.
“What are you doing? “Aren’t you going to dance?”
“I changed my mind.”
“What do you mean?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled vaguely.
Chu Sheng frowned. It was a smile that made me feel uncomfortable.
Slurp.
Yeon Ho-jeong grabbed the middle part of the spear and slowly lifted it. So that the spear blade faces Chuseong.
‘…?!’
At that moment, Chuseong felt a tingling sensation in his chest.
‘Living?’
no.
This was not a matter of life, but a prediction flowing from the blade of a spear. A needle-sharp anticipation emanated from an ordinary iron bar obtained from a blacksmith shop.
And the moment Chu-seong felt Chang’s anticipation.
At that very moment, Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes completely returned to nothingness.
“Can you take responsibility for those words?”
“…!”
“good night. “If you pull out your sword before three seconds pass, I will kill you.”
And Yeonhojeong’s attack began.
Jump and jump.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s steps as he crossed the training ground and approached Chu-seong were nothing short of ordinary. It was an extremely ordinary walk, neither fast nor slow.
But Chu-seong’s expression gradually hardened.
‘what?’
Slowly, very slowly.
Chu-seong felt an inexplicable eerie feeling as he saw Yeon-ho-jeong approaching without any particular force.
‘Is there some kind of plan…?’
When the distance between two people is narrowed to one length.
Yeon Ho-jeong raised his spear.
Raise it above your head as if you were holding a large knife. It was a movement like holding a sword or an axe, not a spear.
What on earth is this?
Everyone watching the training hall tilted their heads. Why are they treating the window like that? Is there a spear like that in this world?
The moment when everyone’s attention was focused.
Coo!
Yeon Ho-jeong’s feet touched the floor of the training hall.
It seemed as if the entire training ground was shaking. At the same time, the six-pointed long spear fell directly on Chu Seong’s head.
Chu Seong’s eyes wavered.
‘What?!’
A spear that comes down at frightening speed.
It’s completely avoidable. With a single wave of his hand, he could have disrupted the route.
But Chuseong could not choose any of them easily.
‘omg!!’
At that moment, he saw a vision that covered everything.
The fantasy of an ax as huge as Mount Tai falling towards oneself standing alone on a cliff in a world of darkness.
The size, the massiveness that pushed through the air, and the ferocity that shook the earth were so incredible that a feeling of despair instantly overtook my whole body.
‘Avoid blood…!’
At that time, Chuseong encountered a pair of eyes looking down at him from behind the giant axe.
And the light in his eyes is slightly curved like a crescent moon.
‘Iik!’
Chu Seong crossed his arms at the top.
And the spear fell into his arm.
Whoa whoa!
“Ugh!”
Chu Seong’s knees were slightly bent.
‘heavy!!’
It was an incredibly heavy blow.
This wasn’t a spear technique. However, it wasn’t just a baton technique.
It was a terrifying blow that combined the ferocity of the axe, the fearfulness of the sword, the flexibility of the baton technique, and the sharpness of the spear technique.
‘this!’
Wooooow!
I quickly raised my energy and poured it into both arms.
I felt tremendous pain in my forearm. The pain was so strong that for a moment I thought I had broken something.
But Yeonhojeong’s attack had just begun.
bang!
Jingak (震脚) is a method of gaining strength through the counter-elasticity of the lower body by stepping on the ground strongly.
With one more step forward, it was another advance. However, this advance made a much louder and more resonant sound than the previous one.
And then the two strikes poured in.
Flash!
It was a qualification to hold the middle part of the spear pole and fire after a vertical strike.
‘fast!’
It was a speed that instantly made me forget the pain in my arm. The blade of the spear was swung as if it would pierce the heart, and the life of a predator was there.
flinch!
For a moment, my finger twitched.
He instinctively pulled out his sword and tried to throw it away. But it was this herbivore. No, it wasn’t herbivorous, it was just a second attack.
‘profit!’
Chu Seong quickly took steps. I realized that it was impossible to catch it with bare hands.
Paaaaang!
The spear strike seemed to pierce the air and reach the outer wall of the building far away.
‘…!’
A cool sensation arose in my side.
It’s a waste of time to look at it. But I knew it instinctively. That he couldn’t avoid that spear blade.
‘I got cut.’
It was also a fairly deep cut. If he had been a little late, the spear blade would have reached his intestines.
‘this…!’
My relaxed mind suddenly became filled with tension. My back was straight and my shoulders were strong.
I thought I absolutely avoided it, but I couldn’t. That’s how fast the attack was.
Then the third attack came.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s wrist, which was holding the spear, made a flexible movement for an instant.
Bababababaak!
Dozens of spear blades flew towards Chuseong.
A spear performed with one hand. This too was fast. It was so fast that an afterimage of the window was visible.
‘this…!’
What was more surprising was the timing and preoccupation.
The spear blade that struck at a unique beat confused Chuseong’s perception. Moreover, the position from which it was struck was exquisite. The spear strike that was launched by preempting the inevitable direction was like a wild beast charging at me with its mouth open.
Chu-seong felt his eyesight becoming dark.
If you can’t avoid it, you have to block it, but each spear strike was filled with bitter anticipation. I couldn’t tell what was real.
‘death?!’
An unfamiliar sensation took over my entire body.
And the moment he felt that sensation, Chu-seong’s hands began to move uncontrollably.
Whoa!
Yeonhojeong’s spear bounced to the right.
“Tsk!”
At the same time, Chuseong’s body also staggered backwards diagonally. In his hand was a blue sword encrusted with jewels.
It was a sword method.
It wasn’t something I received with a sword, nor did I shed it or defend myself. They counterattacked with their own attacks and returned each other’s attacks to nothingness.
Chu Seong’s eyes wavered.
‘I almost died.’
I really almost died. This blow was truly threatening. If I hadn’t pulled out my sword and deployed a herbivorous attack, three or four holes would have been punched in my body.
How long has it been since you felt this fear? How long has it been since you last experienced this tension?
“I couldn’t hold on.”
Surprised, Chu-seong looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.
Before I knew it, Yeon Ho-jeong, wearing a spear on his shoulder blade, was glaring at Chu-seong with cold eyes.
“Didn’t I tell you? I’ll kill you if you don’t survive the herbivorous diet.”
“…!!”
“Let me tell you that even words that come out of a tongue weigh a thousand pounds.”
Wow!
Yeon Ho-jeong jumped in like a wild beast.
