The Youngest Assassin Is a Swordsman Genius - The Youngest Assassin Is a Swordsman Genius chapter 70

Episode 70

“Continue with the quarterfinal match. Solberg Cayenne and Mac Thies to the field.”

Solberg Cayenne is the apprentice of Geoffrey Enders, the most powerful person in the Empire.

Even if he was a direct descendant of the 4 generations, he was not an opponent to be taken lightly.

Maybe Mac was the strongest of his peers he had ever fought.

‘I wonder how he will deal with it.’

I watched the match with expectant eyes.

It was an opportunity to see what kind of method Mac T.S would take against a strong opponent.

As a result, Mac slipped in the quarterfinals.

The combination of the mid-level Earth Spirit and the Eumhwageom was quite powerful.

It was because I was able to use techniques such as moving the field and changing positions, or grabbing my ankle at a crucial moment.

But the opponent was bad.

It was because Solberg Cayenne, feeling the presence of the spirit, did not fall for McTies’ trick.

Mack, defeated in the end, came down and waved at me with a sad expression.

“Now, only Ray-nim is left among us. Good luck.”

“thanks.”

I also greeted each other and turned my gaze to the stadium.

After a while, my opponent in the quarterfinals was Eric, the heir to the Karzan count family.

There was a time when he saved the Knights of Karzan from the Feltons, but it was hard to see it as a fate.

Because I just passed by without revealing my identity.

To be honest, compared to the opponents I’ve been through so far, Eric’s level was quite low.

Can’t even compete with me for a few points, should I say it’s to the point where I have to admit defeat?

“I lost.”

Eric, with a gloomy expression on his sword, left the arena before the referee’s declaration.

He realized that there was no point in rushing at all.

I quietly moved to the waiting room and watched the next game.

* * *

The rest of the quarterfinals saw little to do.

Because the princes defeated all the contestants.

Isabel did quite well against Franz, but lost in the end.

I glanced towards the podium.

Despite the defeat of his third daughter, Kairam’s expression did not change at all.

‘Didn’t I even expect it in the first place?’

To be honest, Isabel was a direct descendant who did not get much attention because she was overshadowed by her older sisters.

There are no executives in the family that currently support it at all.

So, even if he was defeated by the second prince of the empire, he would not feel any particular blow.

After a day of rest, the first game of the semi-finals was finally held.

Perhaps because it was the last day of the preliminary round, today a large bulletin board was erected in the waiting room and in the stands.

‘It catches my eye when I do it this way.’

＜Student President Presidency Round 4 Match＞

Match 1: Ellington vs Ray

Match 2: Franz vs Solberg

My first opponent was the 3rd prince.

To be honest, it didn’t matter who came first.

You just have to chew it all up and get the victory.

But suddenly, I heard students whispering from the audience.

“I can understand everyone else, but this guy’s donation student is really…”

“When you put it in a bracket like this, it’s really heterogeneous.”

“No matter how talented you are, does this make sense?”

“We’re seeing that with our own eyes.”

“But don’t worry too much. Will the Prince and His Highness manage to organize it?”

“Yeah. Guys like that have to be seen often to have the taste of competing.”

Apparently, the voices of the students were heard even in the waiting room.

Ellington’s earlobes were red, and he looked away for no reason.

I didn’t do anything, but the treatment of giving me a compliment seemed very embarrassing.

In the meantime, the referee’s cry drew the attention of the audience.

“Ray Carter, Ellington Bertos! Hurry to the field.”

When the referee gave the order, I calmly walked out.

The face of the 3rd prince facing each other after standing on the field was the same as usual.

It seemed that he had decided to put aside trivial emotions for a while and focus on the preliminary round.

Ellington looked at me curiously and opened his mouth.

“I didn’t expect you to come up here. I heard you grabbed a sword for the first time this year…”

“therefore?”

“It’s not a provocation, so don’t misunderstand.”

“I didn’t get it wrong. I just don’t like to go round and round.”

“Huh? Yes?”

“Didn’t you want to appease?”

Ellington’s expression slightly distorted at the straightforward words.

It wasn’t something to talk about in a public place like this.

However, the third prince soon revealed his true intentions to some extent.

He probably thought it would be better to be honest.

“Originally, I was half-and-half, but I was convinced in this presidential selection. I can say that it was a necessary personnel.”

“I’m a bit surprised.”

“what?”

“I didn’t know you would answer me.”

“Even in a relationship between ruler and god, neatness is my charm. How is it?”

I did not respond to Ellington’s subtle suggestion.

I liked that I moved ahead of Franz, but now the direction of the mission has changed a bit.

‘The choice is mine. It’s a young prince.’

I smiled and replied with a shrug of my shoulders.

“I don’t serve on less than the best terms.”

“What does that mean?”

“You haven’t even heard of Franz’s offer? I wonder what and how much they’ll bet. Besides, you haven’t promised anything yet.”

“…Something’s wrong.”

“Anyone can say empty words that they will take care of you anytime.

The third prince shook his head.

It seems he realized what mistake he had made.

‘To appease people, the probability goes up when you come with both hands heavy. Where is this gloomy bastard going to hit him with his bare mouth?’

Seeing my impudent expression, Ellington forcibly straightened his distorted face and nodded slowly.

“We’ll talk about that later, let’s focus on the game for now.”

“I was going to, but the referee is too overbearing.”

Benderford’s assistants weren’t happy enough to allow small talk before the game.

However, the player’s status was that of a prince.

Even though it was a school that pursued equality, it couldn’t treat the royal family harshly.

I’m just avoiding it in moderation.

As if he had heard me, the referee immediately shouted a slogan and left.

Before long, we started to cross swords against each other.

Cagan! Chaeyoung-!

The first clash was no different from Camille.

Each of them opened their swords and meticulously aimed at the other’s gaps.

But as the battle continued, I couldn’t hide my surprise.

‘This guy… … . Surprisingly strong?’

I didn’t say that the power of strength and aura was exceptionally strong.

Still, Ellington was better than any opponent he had ever faced at Vanderford.

Sophisticated swordsmanship that moves the center of gravity naturally and exerts only as much influence as necessary in the right place.

On top of that, his physical ability was decent enough to pull out a proper attack.

‘Should I say good sense in one word? It feels like it’s overpowering.’

Right now, I was only using the Belgard practice method to eliminate noise.

In addition, since it was a situation where he continued to use the seven-pointing technique, the amount of aura consumed was also considerable.

If it wasn’t for Mahon’s assistant, he would have had to go through a much more difficult fight than he is now.

But, like when dealing with Camille, it was too early to bring out the true power of the Demon Spirit.

Unlike back then, there were characters much stronger than me, such as Kairam and the head of the Imperial Guard Knights.

Considering Mahon’s secrecy, I wouldn’t have to worry too much, but it was better to be careful.

So now I… … .

‘It’s very inconvenient to fight with all hands and feet tied.’

Of course, he had no intention of losing to Ellington.

Finding answers even in difficult situations, moving forward, isn’t that what real skill is?

Kaga River! Cagan!

The 3rd Prince was launching an elaborate attack, mixing the mid-half of the Jeeumswae Sword with the first half of the first half.

The breathing interval was very tight, so I literally had to play with the sword without a break.

If even one mistake occurred, it was a fatal wound.

It was because Ellington was currently deploying his aura at almost the peak.

‘But there is no decisive shot.’

Until now, it should have been possible to kill the opponent like this.

However, I did not get caught up in the third prince’s tricks.

While adjusting the pace, he cut off the pulse of the opponent’s swordsmanship.

Toouk-!

It was just a light kick.

When I hit my knee with my toe, everything went awry.

Ellington, who had lost his balance and staggered, looked at me with a puzzled look.

He didn’t seem to know what the hell he was doing.

“The steps were too obvious. To fool the opponent, footwork is essential.”

When he gave a hint with a smile, Ellington’s face turned slightly red.

It was because the situation just now seemed like I was learning swordsmanship.

However, the 3rd prince quickly cleaned up his expression and opened his mouth seriously.

“As expected, ordinary things don’t work.”

The Jeeumhwageom and the Belgart training method were secret techniques of the imperial family that had been handed down from ancient times.

You call this an ordinary technique?

Well, if you’re a prince, you wouldn’t think so.

He must be learning much more powerful swordsmanship and Aura practice.

I shrugged and raised my sword.

It was meant to put aside the rubbish and continue the battle.

But isn’t the atmosphere in Ellington completely different from before?

Ssssss!

The heavier air and the sharpened prayers, the feeling that something big is about to happen.

I swallowed dry saliva as I watched the 3rd prince’s eyes tinged with blue light.

“I didn’t expect to take this out already. It was originally reserved for my stupid brother.”

Before long, Ellington became a bolt of lightning and came crashing into me.

It is literally a moment in a moment.

Shush!

‘This… … !’

After confirming the opponent’s movements, I instantly widened my eyes.

It was because the number prepared by Ellington was stronger than expected.
