How the Shadow of the Marquis Lives - How the Shadow of the Marquis Lives chapter 157

Chapter 157

It had been expected to some extent since he said he would meet with Gen Asla.

Beasts are generally, if not all, a warlike race.

If there was something wrong, they would fist-to-fist, and even if there was nothing like that, it was common to see each other just because they hadn’t seen each other in a while.

In fact, isn’t this the third match with a person from the Asla family?

The first time we met Ran, we started a fight, and the first time we met Shan, we started a fight.

The circumstances and reasons at that time were different, but it is true that they existed from Dalian anyway.

It was the same with Gen Asla.

If only there was something different.

‘High Master.’

Unlike Ran and Shan, who are still young and inexperienced, Gen is one of the strongest players on the continent.

I haven’t seen that skill in person, but if you only look at rumors, it’s half a number ahead of President Zerech, and on the same level as Marquis Agrid.

its lofty skill. It would be a lie if Xian was not curious.

“You just came to the training ground. Go right away without wasting time.”

Xian drew his sword. And before I could get my posture right, Gen Aslara appeared in front of me at the same time as the sound of kicking the ground.

His fists fill his field of vision.

Xian reflexively raised his sword to block the blow.

– Jjaeong!

The fist and the sword were not just thrown out.

Both of them were full of auras, so the training ground was shaken with just that wave.

‘I thought they would look after me.’

Without commenting on the clogged fist, Gen turned around and stretched out his foot.

Xian retrieved his sword and leaned back slightly to avoid Genn’s kick.

But I couldn’t avoid all of them.

Genn’s crescent moon-like kick slashed Xian’s forehead, creating a shallow scratch.

‘Looks like he has no intention of looking at it.’

Like the fact that I rushed in the first place, and this blow, it was a move to make the opponent unable to fight at once.

Genn’s attitude that he had no intention of letting go of his hand was full.

Cyan was showered with fatal blows that could kill even a moderate high night.

Blocking and avoiding it, Xian occasionally thrust his sword into his fist.

Even if it is wrapped in an aura, it is a bare fist without a single glove.

It looked like it would be torn apart by a sharp sword at any moment.

– Kaang!

There was a sound like a blade hitting a stone, and rather, Xian’s sword trembled even more.

As a result, Xian’s sword does not reach, and the overall pattern of blocking continues.

The aspect that Xian is slightly pushed back by Gen’s onslaught.

however.

“Nonsense… … .”

The pupils of Shan, who had been backing away, dilated at the ‘slight’ push.

Master, I know very well that Xi’an is strong.

However, that means that among the students in the academy, it is strong, and I had never thought of it to this extent.

Oh my God, I was only slightly pushed back in sparring with my father!

On the other hand, Xian was watching the situation coolly, coping with Gen’s fists and feet.

It’s okay to push yourself once.

But he had more leeway than he thought.

‘It’s similar to fighting demons.’

It’s because I’ve been fighting countless times with opponents of this level for about a year.

Although there are many differences between Gwima and Gen in their fighting styles, there is little difference in their level.

Perhaps if the ghosts were here in the present world instead of humans in the hell world, there would have been 11 High Masters on the continent instead of 10.

It is Xi’an who devoted all his time to fighting and training every day for a year, even saving time to eat and sleep.

Thanks to this, Gen Aslara was able to respond without losing his cool even in front of a huge mountain.

‘No, rather… … .’

Calmly removing Gen’s fist, Xian thought.

Rather, it’s easier than when you’re deaf.

But is Gen weaker than the Demon? That’s not it. From the point of view of opponents, the two cannot be distinguished.

What changed was himself.

‘Because it completely absorbed the energy of Psyche and the Dragon King.’

It’s something you can’t help but change.

However, at this moment, what made Xian the strongest was nothing else.

Battle with the Dragon King. The memory of cutting his throat.

That one thing, more than anything else, made Xi’an’s movements mature.

“her!”

Genn exclaimed.

Even if it wasn’t like a real fight to die and kill, it was true that he didn’t look after it.

Even so, Xi’an’s defense did not collapse.

However, if Xian was specialized in defensive swordsmanship, that was not the case either.

The shrewd life that emanated from moment to moment made the nape of Genn’s neck feel cold, and it was by no means the spirit of a swordsman who only sticks to defense.

‘My blood started boiling from the first time I saw it.’

So, without delay, I requested Dalian.

The fact that the other person was a classmate with his daughter was not considered at all.

He was the kind of person who would learn something even from a 3-year-old if he could.

However, I never dreamed that it would be to this extent.

“Looks like you inherited your father’s talent intact! No, no. Even that bastard, Werfed, wasn’t like this when you were your age!”

“… … .”

In the first place, Werfed Agrid didn’t bother to say that he wasn’t even his father.

What proves Xian’s existence right now is neither his name nor bloodline.

There was only one skill that stood up to Genn.

‘Gap.’

And Xian found a gap in Gen.

It was not found in his body and posture, but in his mind.

Right now, Gen was admiring Xi’an’s skills, so he couldn’t focus on sparring for a moment.

He raised his sword horizontally.

“!”

For an instant, Gen felt as if his consciousness was being sucked into the tip of his sword.

A very minute fleeting moment. When he came to his senses, the tip of the sword had reached his eyes before he knew it.

Blood rushed to Gen’s eyes and they were stained red.

“Kheung!”

Caan-!

He raised his foot and slashed Cha Xian’s sword.

Xian couldn’t help but be surprised by this move.

The moment I was careless, I used a yam sword that I hadn’t used before and took a surprise attack.

Actually, that goal worked well, and I succeeded in pushing the sword to his close range.

However, Gen’s kick from the bottom cut off Xian’s sword faster than he could make up for the short distance.

Even though it moved late, it was faster.

The black sword flew helplessly and lodged itself in the top of a nearby tree.

“Is this the end!”

Genn attacked the empty-handed Xian with a beast-like roar.

Even though the opponent of Dalian lost their weapon, there was no hesitation in that action.

Is it just the end of losing a weapon, that’s what I’m asking.

Of course not.

[ Heavenly Sword (霜天劍) – Heavenly Thunder (天雷)]

The black sword stuck in the tree turned into a secret sword and fell like lightning toward Genn.

At the same time, Xian himself.

[ Sangcheon Sword – Island ]

Rather, he spurred the ground and rushed head-on toward Gen. In his hand was a 10,000-year-old ice crystal that gave off the coldness of hell.

In the battle with Pamela Drake, he was able to operate the sword independently of Ravi after manifesting the ‘dark cow’, a combination of the secret sword and the sword ring.

“Khehehe!”

Genn laughed out loud. Of course it should.

His outstretched hands joined together, and the hand wrapped in a huge air wave turned towards Xian.

A huge stream of aura shot out from that hand in a spiral pattern.

[ King of Kings – Attack (進擊) ]

Genn’s Aura and Xian’s Aura.

The two attacks, which could hardly be seen in sparring, collided in the air, causing a huge explosion.

Knowing that a guest who came to the family had entered the family lord’s training center, an attendant of the Asla family prepared medicine and bandages and waited in front of the training center.

The Asla family was visited by many customers on a regular basis, and among them there were many who asked for sparring with the family head.

No, most of them were visiting the Asla family for that purpose.

And the result was always the same.

Tattered guests come out of the arena as if collapsing, or are carried away passed out.

That’s why I’m waiting with medicine and bandages.

– Kik.

Soon the door opened and Inyoung came out.

The attendant, who was reflexively trying to get the medicine and approached her, stopped abruptly on the spot.

What came out was Gen and Xian. Unsurprisingly, Gen Asla was coming out, supporting the tattered Xian.

however.

There was a long scar on the nape of Gen’s neck as well.

“If the sword had been a little deeper, it would have cut the carotid artery.”

“That little gap is the difference between you and me in skills that can’t be filled, kid.”

“Okay.”

Genn and Xian come out grumbling.

The attendant was so shocked that he couldn’t even approach.

Wounds on the body of the family head.

In the previous war, I hadn’t seen it except when I was having a diary with the general of the empire.

“theory.”

“Ah, yes!”

At that time, the attendant responded in surprise at Gen’s call.

“You are a guest, so treat them well.”

“Ah, I see!”

Ron guided Xian by answering more quickly than usual.

Under his extremely polite guidance, Xian was given a room to stay for a few days until the departure date.

In addition, Shan was just staring at the inside of the messed up training hall with a look of disbelief and amazement.

A few days passed, and Ran returned.

She brought a lot of game and was about to return to her family after planting it in the city.

Then, when he heard the rumors of Xian going around in the family, he was surprised in many ways.

“Why are you here?”

First of all, the fact that Xian was at home was surprising.

He had been separated almost two years ago and had not been contacted or heard from.

But suddenly I was treated as a guest in my own house, so I couldn’t help but be surprised.

“I came here by accident. I have to go to Glacier Baengnyeong and meet Yuseol, but he said he is going up because of the trilateral agreement, so I’m going to follow him halfway.”

The fastest way to get to Glacier Baengnyeong from Jakarta is to pass through Everwhale.

Originally, I thought that the place was still occupied by the general, so I was going to go around, but I changed my mind after hearing about the current situation of the continent from Shan.

The fastest route for now is to follow Asla Street to Everwhale, then break up there and go to Glacier Baengnyeong.

“A rumor? Is something going on?”

“I have a job.”

Ran frowned at the tone that no one would say.

Still, I didn’t ask. I don’t think they’ll answer the question.

The next thing that surprised her was the rumors that had spread within the family.

It was, of course, that Xian had wounded his father in Dalian.

“… … Is it real?”

“It wasn’t a fatal blow.”

“I heard it was around the neck though?”

“uh.”

It was absolutely unbelievable.

who is the father Wasn’t he one of the top three High Masters on the continent?

In Dalian, to such a father, he did not scratch his hand or side, but he cut his neck?

Just as Shan couldn’t believe it even after seeing it with his own two eyes, Ran couldn’t believe it at once.

So she chose the most easily recognizable method.

“Have a fight with me!”

Two more days had passed since the day she said that.

The day of departure to Everwhale for the trilateral agreement.

And until that day, Ran had been defeated in every couplet.
