I Am the Madman of This Family - I Am the Madman of This Family chapter 112

Chapter 112. Anticipation is the root of a gift (1)

Tarragon took the stage.

But his appearance was different. The mercenaries admired, and Keter smiled with satisfaction.

A small shield was attached to his right forearm. It was called a ‘taji’, and it was the right size to not get in the way even when shooting a bow.

The bow also changed. Longbows with long range and powerful power were replaced with straightbows with high firing speed and accuracy even though the range was short.

The straight bow he brought was also not simple.

Single straight palace. I brought a short bow one meter long.

Considering that the bows originally used by Sephira’s archers were 1.7 meters long, it was visually about half the size.

The shorter the bow, the more force it takes to draw the string, and the shorter the range. However, that was not a disadvantage for Sephira.

enough power. And, due to the highly durable structure of the bow, the disadvantages are not greatly highlighted. Sephira’s archers can easily fly 800 meters even if they use straight bows.

Since the string is short, the arrow has also become smaller in size.

The nib was also not thick and sharp like an awl.

Tarragon did not let 2nd Squad 7, who was dealing with him, observe him. ran straight ahead.

The mercenaries were startled. So far, Tarragon has only tried to keep the distance, not to close it himself.

Tarragon fired an arrow as he ran.

It was much more stable and faster than using a longbow.

“Ouch!”

“Ugh?!”

Arrows pierced the shoulders and abdomen of the two platinum mercenaries. The arrows were so fast that there was no time to dodge or defend.

But it was not fatal. It was an arrowhead like an awl, so it was natural. It was difficult to inflict a major blow if not targeting vital points, bones, or organs.

This time, the rules of the stage caught Tarragon on his feet. If it hadn’t been for the rules, it would have fatally wounded him anywhere in the face.

The Platinum mercenaries, unable to adapt to Tarragon’s simple bow, hesitated, and Taragon focused on attacking the other two, leaving the Diamond mercenary alone.

Let’s eat!

There was a continuous sound, like a snake flicking its tongue. When he heard the sound, the arrow was already stuck in the target. Arrows were faster than sound.

Caang!

When two mercenaries became hedgehogs-

The diamond mercenary threw a sword at Tarragon.

Tarragon blocked it with his aura-filled forearm shield, then immediately counterattacked with the bow in his left hand. The length of the bow was short, so the distance was short. However, the diamond mercenary took a big step back despite not being able to reach the distance.

Tarragon’s bow was not fully loaded with aura, so it stretched out. It increased the insufficient range by 1.5 times with an aura.

Swordsmen also inject auras into their swords to increase their range, but they don’t stretch like Tarragon. This is because the consumption of Aura is enormous.

“Ha!”

No matter how much the amount of aura increased by taking the elixir, it couldn’t be done like water. Tarragon jumped in first, holding an arrow in his left hand, in order to make a quick decision.

Since the two Platinum mercenaries had been defeated earlier, a one-on-one situation with the Diamond mercenary was naturally created.

Jjaeng! Tae Ae Aeng!

In a brief moment, Tarragon and the diamond mercenary exchange dozens of sums.

Along with the sound of the auras colliding and breaking, blue sparks flew in all directions.

The diamond mercenary frowned. Taragon’s archery skill with a bow is two levels inferior to his own sword skill.

However, the anomalous attack that he suddenly threw while using the bow held in his right hand like a dagger, and most of all, the shield on his right arm was very annoying. 50% of the sword attack was blocked by that shield.

It was clear that he was a beginner in the shield technique itself, but the excellent body vision and agility that supported it made up for the weak shield technique.

‘I have to deal with the tricky shield first.’

The diamond mercenary swung his sword away and pushed Tarragon away, then retreated. Tarragon continues to inject and consume aura into his bow and shield. It was because he thought it would be advantageous to go on a long-term battle like this.

However, that was the Dia Mercenary’s misunderstanding.

Tarragon is an archer.

If there is a distance, it is enough to shoot an arrow.

Whik, puck!

A whistle sound was heard first, and soon an arrow pierced the diamond mercenary’s calf.

Neither his eyes nor his senses were able to dodge Taragon’s arrows.

‘It’s so damn fast.’

The speed at which the two Platinum mercenaries suffered helplessly was understandable.

The diamond mercenary rushed to Tarragon again. I only gave you an excuse to shoot an arrow by widening the distance for no reason.

Even unfolding the armor was useless. The awl-shaped arrow with maximum penetrating power easily penetrated the Aura Armor.

Suddenly, the diamond mercenary’s body was dangling with five arrows stuck in it. It wasn’t a fatal wound, so there was no problem swinging the sword.

Poof!

The diamond mercenary threw his sword at Tarragon.

Tarragon parried the sword with his shield. In the meantime, the diamond mercenary who threw herself grabbed the lower part of the shield and pushed it up.

‘done!’

Tarragon’s defenses were breached.

The side kick of the diamond mercenary, who leaned down with his upper body exposed, exploded.

Fighting!

There was a dull sound.

Tarragon blocked the kick with his aura armor, but he couldn’t help it until his body floated slightly in the air.

hooked!

An arrow lodged in Tarragon’s chest. The diamond mercenary pulled out an arrow stuck in his body and threw it.

Tarragon hesitated, unable to straighten his posture. The arrow had pierced the lung.

“Ugh.”

Tarragon was familiar with pain, but having an arrow stuck in his lungs was a different feeling. Not only was it difficult to breathe, but my body was losing all its strength. It was the factor of defeat that I had been dawdling for more than 3 seconds.

The diamond mercenary raised his hand and shouted.

“It’s not a vital point, but it was pierced through the lungs. You will need to treat it quickly.”

“I know, man.”

Keter was already there. As soon as the arrow hit Tarragon’s chest, he jumped.

Keter grabbed Tarragon by the waist and tripped him over. Then he grabbed the tip of the stuck arrow.

“If you do three, you pick it up. one. two.”

hooked!

Keter, who pulled out the two, inserted the finger that had been soaked in the elixir into the affected area.

“Keep it off… … .”

Tarragon groaned, tasting a new kind of pain.

After applying the elixir directly to the wounded lung, Keter pulled out her finger after sealing the torn wound. Drizzle some elixir over it to finish.

“It’s tough.”

“This is muffled… … .”

“Changing weapons. Wearing new equipment. everything was good It’s a good idea to use up all your auras. In a fight with no future if we don’t win right away, it’s foolish to save your aura.”

“Ugh.”

Even though my heart hurts, I feel good about the praise, so I laugh naturally.

“Keep trying. Even if I die, I will not regret it.”

Keter, who raised Tarragon by the hand, shouted to Anis, who was watching.

“What are you staring at, number two! Get on stage quickly. For every minute of rest, 10 gold is evaporated.”

Anis thought Keter was exaggerating, but he was by no means exaggerating.

Keter paid 280,000 gold to use the mercenaries for one month. In addition to providing lodging, lodging, and treatment, it was the same as burning about 400,000 gold for this training.

Of course, Anise and Tarragon will find out how much Keter spent later. I have no choice but to know. Didn’t Keter tell you, he’ll charge you for all your training expenses?

If they knew how much they spent now, they would have nothing but money worries on their minds.

So, what I didn’t know was medicine.

* * *

Anise and Tarragon did what they wanted to do against the mercenaries.

Winning or losing was not considered. I just used it as a stage to test what I could do, my possibilities and my imagination.

It was a training method that was possible because there were enough mercenaries and Keter’s infinite recovery.

The sparring with the 2nd squad, which included the diamond class, ended somehow. The last 3 squads, the sparring that included the Amantir class, ended really quickly.

No matter what Anis and Tarragon did, the Amantir mercenary gave them no time.

No matter how far they spread, they narrowed the distance with just two or three leaps and delivered a fatal blow.

“This is Amantir… … !”

Anise and tarragon definitely felt off the wall. Even the arrows that the Diamond class struggled to block, Amantir blocked or avoided them too easily.

But I wasn’t discouraged. I thought that if I got used to it, even if I couldn’t win, I would be able to endure it.

The sparring with the 3rd squad was over, and the sun went down. Half of the day was over in an instant.

Anis and Tarragon were worried that this training was also homeless, but that was not the case.

“Eat well, rest well, and fight tomorrow with the same routine. The same goes for mercenaries. Eat well and get some rest.”

Anis and Tarragon were relieved by Keter’s words, and the mercenaries were delighted.

“Oh oh! Treatment and lodging are really provided free of charge, Sephira is great!”

“I am starving to death! Prince Keter! Can I go first?!”

Just like Anise and Tarragon, the mercenaries were mentally and physically exhausted. Rest was desperately needed.

But Keter shook her head.

“Ah, before that. There are people who haven’t paid for their meal yet. is not it?”

There were mercenaries who flinched at Keter’s words. They were mercenaries who had been left out because the number did not match.

“Everyone gather in front of me.”

The mercenaries, who had just watched the gathering of Keter for a day, grumbled.

“So it is. I just wanted to feel comfortable.”

“You’re not trying to make me do chores to tidy up the place, are you?”

Mercenaries gathered in front of Keter. Platinum 9, Diamond, Amantir 1. There were 11 people in total.

From noble mtl dot com

“There is no one. Burgundy! Why aren’t you coming?”

“You mean come to me? I am the leader.”

“The leadership is a piece of sh*t. Are you going to hang out with that?”

“Mmm.”

Burgundy stood before Keter, displeased.

A total of 12 mercenaries were gathered like that.

“You guys, let’s fight with me.”

“… … ?’”

Burgundy spoke on behalf of the bewildered mercenaries.

“You mean, like Anise and Tarragon, you want to form a group and fight in order?”

“No, that is boring. Come all of you at once. No limits. When dealing with me, you can aim for the vitals.”

“… … ?!”

Is it okay to aim for vital points?

No, before that, Keter’s words that he would deal with 12 people at the same time were too arrogant.

Tarragon and Anis also wondered if Keter’s conceit was too much. I felt it desperately while fighting several opponents myself.

Even the opponent is not only platinum. There are one more Dia, Amantir, and Orihalcon.

I know Keter is strong. However, I felt like this crossed the line.

The mercenaries had the same idea. Burgundy in particular shook his head.

“Keter. Admit that you are strong. But this is reckless. He seems to be conceited that he defeated us with martial arts, but it’s different with a sword. You know, why would you do something reckless like this?”

Everyone agreed with Burgundy’s words. Tarragon and Anise were of the same opinion.

But Keter snorted.

“Well, you guys might. then you have to show 2nd and 3rd trainees. open your eyes and see the things i do Because everything can be done with Aurors.”

Deed Dede Dede Deuk!

The ground started to vibrate. It was the aftermath of Keter raising the aura.

“Umm, if you’re going to try… … .”

When Burgundy drew his sword, the 11 mercenaries also drew their swords at once.

However, no one moved.

It was because he witnessed the ‘miracle’ caused by Keter.

“What is that?”

Arrows floated from the quiver at Keter’s waist.

Thirty arrows imbued with aura spread like wings behind both arms and were fixed in the air.

Arrow Wing.

It was Keter’s signature technique.
