A Stuffed Cheonma in my Head - Chapter 123
Only Noblemtl
Episode 123. That’s how it happened.
Lionel looked back.
There, the prince and the knights were looking at him.
There were no circumstances that could be called unusual.
Instead, they were looking at him with very surprised expressions.
The moment when the prince opened his eyes wide and was about to shout something.
Wedge!
I heard a sound cutting through the air.
Lionel flew away without even looking back.
* * *
“bravo!”
Clap clap.
I couldn’t help but applaud.
Bok-sil, how far do you plan on growing?
How dare they use such a lethal method on such an official and important occasion.
Is this what they mean by “blue comes out of blue”?
Has it already surpassed me?
“… … .”
The knights, except me, were looking at the stadium with bewildered expressions.
It was embarrassing enough to try something like that in such an important place, but seeing it work again made me even more embarrassed than embarrassed.
Since psychological warfare is something that usually gives the bold the upper hand over the cautious, it wasn’t particularly surprising to me.
What’s surprising is Bok-sil’s remarkable growth.
“You’re proud, Bok-sil.”
Cheonma sighed.
[… … Bok-sil got bitten by a bad guy.]
“No, how is this bad water?”
[It’s bad water because you don’t deal with it fairly and use cowardly and dirty tricks.]
“Cowardly. Dirty. What’s more important than winning a match? If you win, you win.”
[… … Okay.]
Cheonma clicked his tongue.
[The guy who uses it, or the guy who gets caught up in it. It’s all the same.]
Whether the devil clicks his tongue or not.
I felt good about Bok-sil’s unexpected move.
Single smile.
“You have to sit down and watch this.”
Come to think of it, there was no chair.
Why is everyone standing there? My legs hurt.
I spoke to the back waiting room in an excited voice.
“Hello! The Black Prince wants me to bring him a chair!”
The Black Prince looked at me with a dumbfounded expression.
“What are you looking at?”
“… … .”
After a while, Shushuruta appeared carrying a chair.
She came over, put down a chair in front of me, and looked at me with a proud face.
I felt like he wanted a compliment, so I patted his head.
Then Shushuruta immediately frowned, slapped my hand away, and stormed back into the waiting room.
“……? what?”
The thieving cat’s code of conduct was incomprehensible to me as a human being.
“Devil! I brought you a chair! Do your legs hurt?”
I looked toward the waiting room door and saw Linda struggling to get out of the chair.
“Ugh… But why won’t it go out?”
Linda was unable to get out of the doorway, banging her chair against it.
Shushuruta pushed Linda down and pushed her into the waiting room.
“Didn’t I tell you not to come out?”
“But the devil… … .”
“It’s noisy. Get inside.”
“Eww! You devil!”
Shushuruta dragged Linda into the waiting room.
“… … .”
Linda was a criminal with a huge bounty on her head anyway, so it wouldn’t do her any good to be seen in public.
For that reason, he was imprisoned in the waiting room under Shushuruta’s surveillance.
Originally, I was going to put him in his room and come over, but he insisted on seeing it too, so I ended up going all the way to the waiting room himself.
Well… anyway, the appearance of the chair was important, so I decided to ignore the other miscellaneous things.
I was watching the game while sitting comfortably in my chair… … .
Servants came out in droves, and soon chairs were placed for the other knights as well.
They hesitated to sit down, keeping an eye on the Black Prince.
She wants to sit down, but she seems afraid of getting scolded by that ill-tempered prince.
I decided to help them.
“What are you doing? Sit down. Your legs hurt.”
“… … .”
“It’s rude not to sit down when I gave it to you.”
The knights sat back down on their chairs carefully at my words… … .
“I don’t need it. Take it back.”
When the Black Prince refused the chair, he stood up awkwardly again.
“… … .”
That guy seems like a selfish person.
I grabbed Sir Ashley’s shoulder and pushed him down as he stood up again, struggling beside me.
“Huh.”
“I think Kyung-i was right in front of me. Am I right?”
Sir Ashley, who had sat down unexpectedly, looked at me.
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Then you should conserve your stamina. There’s no need to stand around looking at that guy’s face for no reason.”
“still…….”
“Swoop.”
“… … .”
I watched the game sitting next to Ashley, who was fidgeting.
It was even more fun to take the jerky out of my pocket and chew it while watching.
He was staring at me chewing on the jerky, so I took another one out of my pocket and offered it to him.
“biltong?”
“Oh, I’m fine.”
“It’s delicious.”
“… … .”
“Ugh, ugh, ugh.”
“… … .”
“Salty, salty, salty.”
“Please give me just one to taste.”
“here.”
We sat side by side, chewing on beef jerky and watching the game with excitement.
Then after a while.
“……uh?”
“ah?”
We both dropped the jerky we were chewing at the same time.
* * *
Lionel barely managed to avoid the flying sword, then looked at the red-eyed demon with an incredulous face.
It really was true that I had used the shallow trick of ‘selling my eyes’.
In this sacred duel that will decide the king of a country!
I was confused as to whether it was boldness or lack of awareness.
And on top of that, you’re throwing your sword!
He was like a companion to the Black Knight.
Even when I sleep, I keep it by my bedside.
Don’t throw it carelessly unless it’s a last resort.
It is something that is treasured that much… … .
Throw your sword on your first attack?
What on earth are you thinking?
But the man who threw his sword after using such a lethal method had a calm expression on his face.
He seemed to be briefly disappointed that his attack did not hit, but that was it.
“… … ?”
He threw down his sword. That is, he lost his weapon.
It’s safe to say that the situation has already been lost.
But the man was too calm for such a thing.
‘what?’
While Lionel froze in confusion for a moment, the demon’s hand moved.
At the same time, something flew behind him.
Wedge!
“… … !”
Lionel flew away without even looking back.
Then, he confirmed the identity of the enemy who was targeting him from behind, and he couldn’t help but be surprised.
The identity of the flying object that was after him was the demon sword that the devil had thrown earlier.
The magic sword stopped in front of the demon, then started to move around and float in the air.
Lionel felt dizzy when he saw the sword flying by itself.
A sword that flies like a bird.
“What is this… … ?”
But there was no time to panic.
The demon stretched out his hand and pointed at himself, and the sword flew again in response.
“Huh!”
Lionel held out his sword and blocked it.
Chae-chaeng! Chae-chaeng!
While I was blocking, I looked across and saw the devil waving his arms around as if he was giving instructions.
He was controlling the sword.
Lionel watched the demon’s flailing arm as he blocked the sword.
Lionel’s head spun rapidly.
He is a veteran knight who has been through many hardships.
Based on the numerous experiences he had had, he quickly figured out a method of destruction.
‘I don’t know what it is, but if you attack the caster, that’s it.’
Lionel immediately put his decision into action.
Kyaang!
He struck with all his might with his sword and then rushed at the demon.
Then, as if he had expected it, the devil looked at him with calm eyes… … .
“uh?”
He turned around and ran away.
“???”
Lionel looked at the back of the person running away with all his might in vain.
The knight ran away with his back turned?
But the appreciation didn’t last long.
Wedge!
Because the demon sword was chasing him.
Lionel had no choice but to dodge and parry the magic sword aimed at his back.
The demon that had been running away was now standing far away, waving his arms and controlling his magic sword.
It was quite a daunting task to deal with the sword itself, rather than the knight wielding it.
Even if this is the first time I’ve ever experienced something like this.
Normally, when fighting someone with a sword, you would predict their attack by looking at their gaze or posture, but there was no such thing with a sword.
Attacks came from all directions with swords that were completely unpredictable.
The black sword that was swinging in the air and pressuring him was showing off a variety of impossible sword moves that could not be seen when swinging it by a human.
I couldn’t come to my senses.
The prince, the prince’s knights, and even the three royal knights were speechless at the sight of the sword flying by itself.
Even Aaron, forgetting that he was a judge, blankly watched the battle between the sword and the man.
Everyone watching the game was dumbfounded and stared at the unbelievable spectacle unfolding before their eyes.
Of course, Lionel, who was actually facing him, felt like he was going to die.
“Huh!”
Lionel felt his stamina draining away quickly.
That would be the case. He had to block the unpredictable attacks flying towards him while keeping his eyes on the tip of his sword. That alone was too much. It was a difficult situation just to block them.
I felt like if I continued like this, my stamina would run out first.
‘This can’t go on.’
I had to break the situation.
how?
‘I have to stop that sword somehow.’
I could catch the one who was wielding the sword, but every time I did, he would turn his back without hesitation and run away so quickly that there was nothing I could do.
then.
‘I have no choice but to hold the sword.’
Woof-
Lionel immediately put his thoughts into action.
After raising his aura as much as possible, he struck the magic sword flying towards him with all his might.
Oh my!
The magic sword that was flying wildly was shot down.
The magic sword lost its power in an instant due to the tremendous wave of power and fell to the ground.
Lionel didn’t miss that moment.
He ran straight over and grabbed the handle of the magic sword.
‘Got it!’
Towering.
At that moment, Lionel’s movements stopped.
The devil watched the sight with his eyes blinking.
There was confusion in his red eyes as he stared blankly.
It seems he also did not anticipate this situation.
“……uh?”
Soon, Sir Lionel went berserk.
* * *
Bok-sil was clearly aware of the difference in skill between herself and her opponent.
He was a shabby wandering knight who, until recently, was completely unable to control mana.
In contrast, the opponent was a knight of a prince of a country, and among them, the one with the greatest power.
It had only been three days since I became Vlad’s master. There was no way I could properly draw out that power.
Moreover, Vlad was a demon sword known for its cruelty. If he tried to draw out power that he couldn’t handle, he would only end up being swallowed up.
So, Bok-sil was using what she had to fight a fight she knew she could win.
“……uh?”
But he also did not foresee this situation.
“Khaaaaaaaah!”
Bok-sil stared blankly at Lionel, who was roaring while holding twin swords.
He was already drawing the demon sword that was stuck in the ground high into the sky and shooting a red light beam towards the sky.
Boom!
In an instant, black clouds began to gather in the sky.
Kkwarung!
A red lightning bolt struck the demon sword.
Bok-sil looked up at the sky turning black, then looked at her own hands.
He has two swords. He is bare-handed. And he is on a rampage.
It was a match with an obvious outcome.
The decision was quick, and the action was equally swift.
Bok-sil immediately spoke to Aaron.
“I surrender.”
“……yes?”
Then he left the stadium and came down from the stage.
Bok-sil explained to the Black Prince, who was looking at her with a blank expression.
“I had no choice.”
“… … .”
Then he approached the devil, who had his mouth half open, and spoke.
“That’s what happened.”
The devil answered in a breathtaking tone.
“What the hell is going on? You crazy bastard.”
