Master Swordsman Genius Handmaid - Master Swordsman Genius Handmaid chapter 52
52 – 14. Women’s duel (1)
“… .”
Shien looked at the two Fiore men and women who had disappeared towards the balcony.
Before we met, I was worried about how sharp I would be.
When I actually met him, I was worried in another part.
‘Strange. very strange! I can’t do that!’
Etria withdrew more meekly than expected.
Even when he counterattacked himself.
Due to Fiore’s personality, it was fitting that he clearly responded.
Especially if it was Etria, who couldn’t eat herself so much.
He had to respond to his own counterattack, which he remembered as a crybaby and a coward.
However, Etria only bit her lip and didn’t say anything else.
Shien noticed one thing in Fiore’s Sogaju appearance.
The way that woman looks, it’s like she’s suppressing her emotions for something.
‘I’m aiming for something. What is it? What are you thinking?’
There is nothing more important than understanding the other person’s intentions.
That way, you can think of countermeasures faster and more effectively.
This is a family located not far from Ettenberg and Fiore.
That’s why you shouldn’t be pushed by Fiore even more.
If he did that, the nobles who were paying attention would bite him.
“Did you say Adele?”
“… ?”
Before long, Shien was finally able to figure it out.
Why did Etria suppress her emotions and step aside once?
What was she aiming for when she appeared in front of him?
“… yes. My name is Adele.”
“Did you see it last time? This is Etria of Fiore. The last duel was very impressive.”
Etria approached Adele and spoke to her in a friendly manner.
He’s the one who blew off my escort knight’s arm and brought me shame.
There was no way he could show that friendly side to his opponent.
“How long have you been a knight? Sir Adele.”
“I am not a knight.”
“So you’re saying you’re still a servant? This is amazing.”
Shien couldn’t help but sigh at those words.
Fiore would already know that Adele was a servant, not a knight.
He didn’t really try to hide it in Lichtenau.
Isn’t there a title called ‘~Kyung’ that should be attached to a knight?
Even so, Etria pretends not to know and calls out.
Of course, for Cien, that is bound to be staggering.
‘Could it be that woman?’
Since he couldn’t stand watching any longer, Shien took a step forward.

Meanwhile, the story of Adele and Etria continued.
“Why did you become Liechtenauer’s servant? Any special reason?”
“… .”
Because I couldn’t speak honestly.
Adele responded by simply keeping her mouth shut.
But that silence seemed to sound different to Etria.
He slightly raised the corner of his mouth and even looked at him as if he knew that would be the case.
Apparently, that part that Lord Karad mentioned earlier.
It seemed like he remembered the saying that sometimes there are people who act for no reason.
“You know what, Adele? Unlike knights who move under a contract with their lord, servants have not signed a contract yet. In other words, if you wish, you can change your seat through a reasonable process.”
“… ?”
“therefore… .”
“Let’s go there, Etria Sogaju.”
Shien, who came running after a month, stopped Etria.
I didn’t expect this to happen, but to think that he was really trying to placate Adele.
The opponent who even cut off his knight’s arm.
At Shien’s appearance, Etria smiled again.
As if things were going my way.
“Why is that, Lord Lichtenauer? Do you have any problem?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know, or are you provoking me?”
“It is strange. As for knights, attendants can change their affiliation at any time. I remember Fiore, as well as Lichtenau, providing attendants in that way, or conversely, giving them away.”
There is no big problem until we formally sign a contract.
Etria was tripping over that part as a pod.
But such cases are really few.
It is common for a person to remain in the family if he is accepted as an attendant.
There is no way that the owner of Fiore’s cows would not know that.
That would mean that Etria is aiming for something else.
‘You can’t go over it. can’t go over If you go over… .’
But, not another woman, but that Etria.
To see him talking to Adele over and over again.
Sien felt that the judges were twisted around.
Even when I heard mixed-race noises from her, and even when I was ignored.
I don’t remember being that angry.
You can talk, I thought I could just ignore it.
‘however… But this… .’
Awesome-.
I really felt like my stomach was turned upside down.
Unknowingly, I clenched my teeth and clenched my fists to break.
What makes me even more angry is Adele’s reaction.
He answered Etria’s words with a calm voice that was no different from usual.
I wish you wouldn’t answer, but it’d be better if you asked me to stop.
Rather than that, I am answering honestly.
‘Adele, why are you doing this to me… !’
Seeing that, I couldn’t stand it any longer.
Whether this was a trap or whatever, I had a strong desire to just run into it.
“Etria Fiore Soga.”
A voice that had never been uttered before, and sank extremely low.
And even the eyes that sat down several times deeper than that.
Even though it’s different from the usual Sien, it’s a very different look.
“Stop it. Now that is considered quite rude.”
“ah… I’m sorry, Lord Lichtenauer. But it’s not really a big problem, is it? I’m not stealing other people’s family articles, I’m just having a conversation with the attendant.”
“I told you to stop. Please step back immediately.”
“no, I do not want. Am I from Lichtenau? Isn’t it?”
“I mean stay away from the people of Lichtenau.”
“Because you don’t like it?”
Took-.
For a moment, Shien felt as if something was disconnected in his head.
At the same time, her reason finally notices and sends a warning.
Right now, this very moment, was what Etria was aiming for.
Adele would step in if she provoked Shien, so work would get tiring.
Conversely, if Adele was tossed over, it would be Cien who would step up.
There, Etria will bring out a duel that she couldn’t do the other day!
You have to be patient, you have to be patient.
Although his level has risen to an incomparable level from before.
Etria was an opponent who had already reached that level.
If it was now, it was certain that he would reach a higher place than himself.
Can’t win, this is a trap.
If you step into a situation where even the damage is not enough… .
“… I can’t stand that rudeness any longer. Etria Fiore. I challenge you to a duel.”
* * *
The moment the word duel came out of Shien’s mouth, Etria almost burst into cheers.
I wonder if this will work, it seems irrational, and I thought I was going to have a long time.
That stupid half-blood b*tch took care of it and led it into a trap.
The one who hates the one who depends on it the most covets it.
He must have been upset to hear that it could even be taken away by him.
That’s why I did something that made no sense to anyone to duel.
‘All that’s left now is to trample on that mixed-race b*tch.’
The previous imperial banquet ended in Fiore’s disastrous defeat.
At a banquet in the Etenbergs, the opposite will be the case.
The defeat of the Lichtenau family, who dared to mess around without even knowing the level.
Just imagining how thrilling and enjoyable it is!
One regrettable thing is that it can’t hurt.
I want to scratch that face so I can never carry it around again.
If so, even if you are yourself, you will not be able to handle the aftermath.
‘Well, it doesn’t matter. Rather, it’s better to subdue without getting hurt.’
Whatever it is, you just have to win in the end.
Wasn’t that what he was aiming for when he approached Adele on purpose?
If he really intended to appease, he would have contacted him secretly.
There’s no way I’m going to do something like this openly to appease.
‘wait. I will crush you very horribly.’
I’ll put down that sassy woman’s nose and rebuild Fiore’s pride.
As a bonus, I will definitely announce that the era of Fiore has come.
Whether or not he knew Etria’s true intentions.
Shien calmly prepared for the duel with a calm expression.
She was even the first to stand at the Ettenberg family’s gymnasium.
“under.”
Seeing that dignified figure, Etria let out a sigh as if she was full of energy.
Are you trying to build pride in the subject of the weak?
It seems that he wanted to show a polished appearance even after he rose to the position of the head of household.
‘okay. stand taller like that That way, I feel better when I step on it.’
Finally, even Etria stood at the gymnasium, and the nobles took their seats.
Even though it was a duel with a real sword, everyone seemed concerned.
Rather, a smile on the lips and a look of anticipation is evident.
I can’t imagine being able to see a duel between Fiore’s Soga and Lichtenau’s lord here.
It’s a sight that is hard to see even if you pay a thousand gold, so you can’t help but enjoy it.
It was already to the point of whispering, laughing and talking to each other about who would win.
“… .”

Meanwhile, Adele stood still and looked at Xien.
If it had been her in the past, she would have stopped the current duel.
It’s true that it’s worse than not fighting a fight without a chance.
But now it’s not such a no-win fight.
I don’t know Shien yet, but I can’t even imagine Etria.
Adele already had a glimpse of how this duel would develop.
“I don’t see you worrying.”
When I turned my head, Sir Karad, the commander of the Knights of Fiore, was sitting next to me.
He also had a face that didn’t shake at all.
“What do you think it will be like?”
“… .”
“I think my Sogaju will win.”
Is it a provocation or an honest comment?
It doesn’t matter what happened.
After all, the answer you will give is decided.
“I don’t think so.”
Because from your master, there is no light.
