I Am the Madman of This Family - I Am the Madman of This Family chapter 103

Episode 103. Pride can be bought with money (1)

Gyro and Zordic’s swords and spears intertwined in the air. The sword trying to crush it and the spear trying to shed it tossed each other.

The triumvirate forgot to breathe or even blink, and kept the battle between the two in their heads.

Where else can you go to see strong men of 3 stars or higher fighting? Simply watching becomes a great study, and clues to enlightenment pour in.

Even the skills of the two are top-notch skills.

Gyro’s refreshing sword contains the tricks of fast, strong, and breath-taking, and the moonlight spear method derived from the Moon Myo tribe is the supreme spearmanship with four tricks: change, anomaly, quick speed, and unity.

Of course, it is not possible to say that having a lot of tricks gives you the upper hand in the opposite s*x, but Zordyk must have understood all four tricks, so the link between the spears continued like a stream of water.

However, the compatibility with Gyro’s sword was not good. Change and anomaly collapsed at the giant sword pushing forward like an angry elephant, and speed was equal to each other.

Sweat broke out on Zordic’s forehead. His promise to win by using only Rannachal had long since disappeared.

I aimed for Gyro’s chin and legs with the Type 1 New Moon Spear, but was blocked by the surging giant sword and spilled it with the Type 3 Reverse Half Moon Spear.

The half-moon spear has a trick to steal or deflect an opponent’s weapon, but it didn’t work on Gyro at all. Rather, Zordyk, who used the technique, almost missed the spear.

‘Where did you bring such a monster!’

I didn’t even have time to open my mouth.

I moved my feet to get out of the sword’s range, pulled the spear all the way back, and then extended it forward. His spear was swallowed up by a silver orb in an instant.

The fourth full moon window. A sting hidden in the moon. Opponents are forced to defend in all directions or to retreat far back, not knowing where they will be targeted.

But Gyro was different.

He didn’t look at the moon.

Instead, he looked into Zordic’s eyes.

Kwaaa!

Gyro responds with an oblique slash. That seemingly simple oblique cut had a gravitational pull that drew the opponent’s weapon or aura. It was the effect of ‘Inhalation’, one of the three tricks of the Refreshing Sword.

Zordyk somehow prevented his body from being led, but he couldn’t stop the spear’s trajectory from being distorted.

I’m going to go to the middle of the day!

Zordyk’s cross spear, colliding with the giant sword, screamed. It looks like it will break anytime soon.

Zordyk turned his shoulders wide and pushed the giant sword away and pierced with the second half moon spear.

It was a bold charge, but Gyro skillfully lowered his stance and stabbed the giant sword that floated above his head vertically into the floor.

Kwajijik!

The aura emitted from the giant sword deeply embedded in the gymnasium completely overturned the floor in front of it.

Zordyk did not back down, and immediately flew up using the fragments as a springboard.

Woo woo woo woo!

Auras erupted explosively from the two bodies. Her hair flutters, and the clouds above her head are pushed far away.

Moonlight Changryu secret, lunar eclipse.

Refreshing Sword Secret, Changchun Passage.

The dazzling moonlight engulfs the ground-

In Gyro’s giant sword, the aura increases endlessly.

The moment each of them tried to throw their own false clothes at each other–

“So far.”

Tung.

Two Aura Arrows fired carelessly from Keter’s hands struck Gyro’s giant sword and Zordic’s spear.

Kwak!

Gyro was pushed back several meters with the giant sword embedded in the ground, and Zordick spun once in the air before landing with barely enough balance.

“… … !”

The two couldn’t believe it.

The blow they were preparing contained the will to kill the opponent without fail.

However, not only was it disintegrated by a single arrow from Keter, but it was even pushed back terribly.

“… Umm, is the boss really a monster?”

The demonic sword Obelisk, which did not wake up from any attack, is howling. Tear to death the opponent who woke me up right away.

Zordic also looked down at his window. no head part It was broken by Kether’s arrows.

It was not an artifact or magic tool, but a spear made of amantium. Of course, I couldn’t believe that it broke while blocking an arrow, even though its durability had greatly weakened from facing Gyro’s giant sword.

Zordyk, who had never fought Keter properly, felt a sense of triumph rather than fear. To think that an archer who was younger and insignificant than himself could demonstrate such power.

‘I’ll admit it. Keter, you are my rival.’

He also admits to losing to a mysterious giant swordsman. If he had used the lunar eclipse at the end, he would have won.

‘Damn Keter. Do you think I’ll go back to prison?’

Zordic turned around.

There is still room for stamina and aura. I was thinking of escaping from Sephira on my own by running like this.

jump!

A stone was lodged in the back of his head as he turned his back.

Zordyk fell forward in the same posture he was about to run. Blood flowed from the back of his head.

“If I hadn’t turned around, I would have avoided flying.”

Keter came back to the stunned Zordic, put on restraint bracelets, and sealed his muscles.

“It’s okay.”

Keter, encircling Zordic with one hand, spoke to the trio.

“This assistant has prepared a difficult position for you guys. Did you feel anything?”

The three nodded their heads at the same time.

It was only about 3 minutes of sparring, but what those 3 minutes showed was a much more valuable experience than 3 years of training.

In particular, Tarragon, who had no real combat experience, could not close his gaping mouth.

They knew that Zyro looked after them, but seeing Zyro show his sincerity, it was truly beyond imagination.

If Gyro dealt with him the way he dealt with Zordic, he was confident that he would die within 5 seconds.

After seeing Zyro and Zordiq’s sparring, 99% of what the three felt was similar, but the remaining 1% was completely different.

The trio froze as they stood. In their heads, the things they realized from the previous battle were busy organizing things.

Gyro, who brushed off the dust on his body, approached and spoke succinctly.

“president. Give me the elixir. I ate them all.”

“What have you already written? Do you drink water instead? Apply saliva on scratches.”

“Isn’t it because you’re doing it while watching and getting hit even when it’s not right… . And my age… I’m probably over 60 this year.”

“Are you really going to retire?”

Even so, Keter gave her an elixir diluted with water. No matter how rich Keter was, spending the elixir sparingly was an act of shaking hands.

“By the way, Zyro, if they come to their senses, give them another shot.”

“All right. Oh, and-”

Gyro said to Keter’s back as he walked away.

“When this is over, let me know.”

“I get it.”

Gyro and Keter are not in a master-servant relationship. is a transactional relationship. He said he would teach you how to kill a god, so he came to Sephira.

Gyro was energized again when Keter responded promptly.

Keter, who re-imprisoned Zordic, was blocked by an attendant as soon as he got out of prison.

I wondered if my father had found out about stealing Zordic for a while, but that didn’t seem to be the case. If that were the case, knights would have come, not servants.

As if it were another matter, the attendant spoke in a trembling voice without even seeing Keter’s face properly.

“Do, Bocchan. Deacon Jacques said, ‘Sir Catherine has come to visit. What should I do?’… … .”

“Ah, has it already been that time?”

He did not forget Catherine’s existence.

Of course I remember.

Slave #1 obtained from Sephira. I ordered him to be silent for a month to test whether he seemed useful and could be trusted.

‘He wanted to learn invisible arrows.’

Originally, I thought I would just teach them how to write and leave them alone. Because she is a person who can exert a positive influence just by being alive in Sephira.

“Let’s meet sometime.”

Anyway, it will take time for the trio to come to their senses.

Keter headed to the mansion where Catherine was waiting to see if she was going to use Catherine sparingly or properly.

* * *

Living as a mute is harder than you think.

Because communication does not work properly, human relations collapse, and the person himself feels great frustration because he cannot say what he wants.

If you are an ordinary person, you will surely go crazy with stuffiness even if you live mute for one day.

Katherine continued such a mute life for a month. Didn’t say a single word. In any uncomfortable situation, even in a situation that needs clarification.

It must have been an unbearable silent practice for her, who is receiving a lot of attention as a red one point called the rose of Sephira.

But she persevered. Mental strength was not broken either. So, she returned to her old self. Vibrant and full of vitality.

“Deacon Zach. Master Keter hasn’t forgotten me, has it?”

“Heh heh, it is true that the young master has been busy lately, but he is not the kind of person who forgets something. Please wait patiently, Sir Catherine. The Bocchan will surely send you an answer.”

“Thank you, Deacon Zach. The green tea you brewed calms me down.”

“It’s an overstatement.”

It was at that time that Deacon Zach and Catherine were talking about Doran Doran.

The door of the dorm was thrown open.

Catherine and Jacques rose from their seats. There was definitely only one person here who would open the door so roughly.

“young master!”

“master!”

“… … ?’”

Jacques looks at Katherine, who calls Keter her master, with strange eyes. Then, when he saw that Kether was dirty, he said to the attendant:

“Prepare water for the bath. Wash first.”

“That’s Okay. It’s not over yet. I stopped by to talk to a slave.”

“yes? Are you a slave?”

“I made a bet. If I win, I will become your slave. And as you can see, I won.”

“ah… hmm… uh… … ?’”

Zach pondered for a moment whether such a master-servant relationship could be established, but he could not easily come up with an answer.

“Everyone, including the old man, get out.”

From noble mtl dot com

“I understand for now.”

Zach took the attendants and left the room.

Keter went straight to the point.

“Have you been silent for a month?”

“yes. I didn’t say a single word.”

“You said something at Elder Panir’s mansion.”

Despite Keter’s ridiculous quibbles, Catherine answered boldly with bright eyes.

“At that time, the young master ordered it.”

“Do everything I ask you to do? If you die, will you die?”

“That will ask you several times. really? Really? If you still ask me to die, I will die.”

Keter stared into Catherine’s eyes with a strained gaze. Catherine also looked into Keter’s golden eyes without losing.

‘Hey, you’re serious. Or maybe you can control your emotions enough to fool me.’

In humans, the head and body play separately. Even if your head thinks you’re not revealing a lie, your body won’t stay still.

Catherine seemed comfortable.

That meant having a belief. It was not a belief that was compulsorily followed like that of a knight, but a belief of one’s own.

“Okay, I’ll admit it. silence for one month. It held up well. Live speaking freely now.”

As Keter pretended to go, Catherine stretched out her arm. Keter’s clothes were very dirty. Katherine squeezed the dirty clothes tightly without hesitation.

“How to shoot an invisible arrow. You said you would let me know. Please teach me.”

Catherine’s eyes were full of passion. The will to learn no matter what happened was conveyed to Keter as well.

“Hmm, do you really want to learn?”

“yes. If you can use invisible arrows, I think the power of archery increases dozens of times. It is perfect if it is combined with the zodiac sign.”

“Are you thinking of learning my skills and passing them on to other knights?”

“If the master permits it.”

“you’re stupid? Why are you teaching it? Your value goes up only when you know it alone. If others can write them all, you are just one of many articles.”

“As the master said, it might be like that. But it doesn’t matter if my value goes down, and I don’t think it will go down in the first place. I exist only when the Sephira family lives. If the status of the Sephira family rises, then my status will also rise. I want to learn invisible arrows for Sephira, not for me.”

“Ah, is that the logic? Then what if I only teach invisible arrows to anyone other than you?”

“Thank you. If the master himself teaches the knights how to shoot invisible arrows, it will be much better than me teaching them, since I am inexperienced.”

“Tsk, aren’t you greedy?”

“there is. Sephira… … .”

“No, are you not greedy for yourself? Are you going to die after living as a Sephira knight for the rest of your life? Is that your life?”

Katherine pondered for a moment before answering.

“I was abandoned by my parents. Do you know what happens to an abandoned girl? Ten out of ten are sold as prostitutes. If the orphanage run by the Sephira family hadn’t picked me up, I’d have died running away from the red light district, or even if I had managed to escape, I would have become something other than a knight.”

“You want to return the favor to Sephira?”

“yes. Because it saved my life.”

“I think you think that you haven’t repaid the favor you received from Sephira yet. well, anyway Would you like to repay all the favors? Then what do you think?”

“Then… … .”

Catherine honestly never thought about it after that. It was because I was implicitly convinced that such a thing would not happen.

A knight’s life is short. The survival rate is also low. It is safe to say that there is no article considering post-retirement.

Catherine hadn’t even thought about her plans after retirement. He is only vaguely imagining that one day he will die fighting for Sephira.

I was speechless when Keter asked me to speak after that, but there was one vague thing that came to my mind.

“If I stop writing, I want to try running a ranch… . They live in large fields raising sheep and chickens. It would be nice to have a small orchard as well.”

It’s like a dream. A dream that cannot come true. Catherine thought so.

But Keter grinned.

“Look. you are greedy too You don’t fight because you want to fight. It’s just fighting for peace. Isn’t it your dream to live a leisurely life without worrying about money?”

“yes… . Yes. But is that even possible? Will I have such a future?”

“It is difficult, but not impossible.”

“But what does that have to do with learning invisible arrows?”

“The connection is very deep. If you learn invisibility arrows properly, you become useful. I don’t easily throw away useful guys and take good care of them. However, such a rosy future cannot be obtained easily.”

Keter held out two fingers in front of Catherine.

“You have two options. One safe but far from your dream road. The other is a way to risk your life but get closer to your dream. choose your future.”
