Chapter 110: Unpolished Skill

WOAH!!!

“The captain managed to push back the enemy!”

“I told you! The captain isn’t an ordinary person!”

His men started mumbling noisily.

Yeman noticed that his enemy lifted his sword, then pointed the tip of it to him. He narrowed his eyes as he gazed at him.

“You... Are strong. But your way of the sword is random and unpolished. With that, you can’t defeat me.”

Yeman further squinted his eyes from his enemy’s remarks. He agreed to him that he wasn’t skilled in using a sword; It was the first time that he wielded such a real thing.

.....

He remembered playing before. That time when he was still a kid, he used to consider a stick as his sword.

Yet, here he was, facing a real swordsman. He, on the other hand, was holding a real sword the same as his enemy. No, it wasn’t just actually a real sword; it was a magical sword.

His mouth twitched and extended into a grin. “Let’s see.” After saying it, he didn’t wait for the enemy to reply. His figure shot towards the enemy while dragging his sword.

He kicked the tainted-floor and rapidly dashed, but, “!!” Yeman lost his balance. His foot slid! The blood had caused the floor to become slippery. “Damn!”

Before Yeman could regain his footing, he heard a strange sound of tearing the air.

At the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of a metallic glint. He felt a foreboding feeling. A sword slash was hastily approaching. It was coming from below.

“R...Rising Dragon strike!?” One of Captain Turo’s men exclaimed.

If Yeman could not do something, he would be sliced in half, vertically. In addition to that, he had no time to switch his sub-weapon.

He was in an awkward position in which his body was slightly behind his feet. He was in a posture like a reversed letter C.

Looking at the situation, he had no way out! Everyone who was watching gasped while holding their breaths.

Mr. Yule and Jackson were already grinning. Against a Legendary Sword-Martial, one couldn’t let himself make a single mistake; because one mistake meant death.

The long narrow sword made a rapid noise as it hastily tore the air.

In just a split second, Whoosh!

Ugh! A moan of pain escaped from the mouth.

A vertical strike from the bottom had left a mark in the air. It looked like a rising dragon just looking at it.

After the strike, only silence remained, but all of them were stupefied because the Rising Dragon strike only hit an empty air! And Captain Turo was wounded!

Night sneered at them. ‘What a pity bunch,’ she mumbled. The thought of his Lord going to lose had never crossed her mind.

Mr. Yule and Jackson widened their eyes.

A stab pierced Turo on his right shoulder. He reacted immediately by leaping forward. Yeman decided not to pursue him, but a wicked grin was visible on his face.

Plok! Plok! Plok! Blood was dripping from Turo’s wound down to the floor.

Turo was sending him a perplexed look.

“I wonder what the Legendary Sword Martial feels after receiving a wound from an enemy with an unpolished sword skill?” He mocked him.

Captain Turo was holding his wounded shoulder while glaring daggers at him. He never expected that his enemy had such a cunning technique!

However, this enemy was seemingly looking down on him! He didn’t follow up with another attack.

‘So, haughty!’ He exclaimed in mind.

Captain Turo summoned another magical energy on his left hand and grasped his wound. A groaning sound escaped from his mouth while he was bearing the pain.

Whatever he did wasn’t some kind of healing. He was just stopping the flow of blood temporarily to prevent the bleeding.

It was a common technique they used back then when he was still a soldier of the empire.

While he was doing it, his eyes never left his enemy. He could not guess what this person was currently thinking.

When the bleeding stopped, he gripped his weapon once again. Then he posed in which he was holding the hilt of the sword with both hands.

“Heh! Come on Legendary sir!” He mocked him while his left hand was beckoning his enemy to attack.

“Dammit, so arrogant!”

“Captain! Teach that idiot!” His men had started squealing.

Captain Turo also heard Mr. Yule and Jackson’s voices. They were urging him to kill the young man.

The reason he was under him was not that he had a debt on him. But because he wanted to stay close to the person who was the reason for his misery.

He knew what Mr. Yule did. But, he could not openly oppose him. Thanks to his men, guarding him heavily, he could not find the right time to strike.

Aside from that, he was part of a criminal organization. It was an association of influential people that took over the underground world.

He had a strong notion that some families of great families were backing it, though he had no evidence.

It was also the reason why he could not trust asking his comrade in the empire’s soldiers. After all, the great families had eyes and ears everywhere. As long as he wasn’t sure of which of the great families were backing them, he could not disclose such information, even to the Royal Family.

It was also one of the reasons that he quitted being the empire’s soldiers.

Regardless, he needed to defeat this young man in front of him to gather more trust from Mr. Yule.

He fixed his grip on his sword, then, he summoned a brilliant magical aura on it. With two consecutive steps, his figure shot to his enemy.

However, his eyebrow twitched upon seeing his enemy was standing still.

He felt suspicious about it. The fact that he had some unusual abilities, it was daring of him to charge into him. It was daringly true if the one who was fighting the young man wasn’t him. Fortunately, it was Turo. Fighting such an opponent wasn’t new to him.

He just needed to widen his perception to the full extent and used his Full Charge ability to perform a high-speed attack. It also helped him to detect unusual fluctuations around him. He took a hit a while ago because it didn’t come to him that such a person had such great ability.

It was uncommon for a person of his age to have that kind of ability.

Nonetheless, he would kill him this time! This person was scary when he matured enough. Captain Turo thought so.

And that girl also, he would find a chance to kill her next. She would be a big problem if Mr. Yule succeeded with his plan. It would hinder his plan of revenge.

“!!”

In just a split second, the tip of his sword was piercing the space and was coming hastily to kill the young man.

Although it bugged him that the young man was standing-still like he had no plan to evade, he could not stop his attack.

His sword made a sharp sound, but it only reached the tip of his enemy’s nose.

Then, suddenly his world turned upside down. He felt dizzy, and his knee trembled.

Everyone who was cheering at him gaped when they saw him fell on his knee.

“What happened to the captain?” Someone among the crowds asked the question.

“.....”

The others fell silent as they could not explain either.

They saw the young man did not move, but they suspected that he did something again. Turo forced himself to glance at the young man.

He saw him gazing at his eyes. He noticed that from the young man’s eyes, there wasn’t even a speck of fear in them. By gazing into his eyes, he could tell that he was expecting this to happen.

How come? Did he fell into his trap? Turo asked inwardly. Yet, it was too late now. He let himself blinded by hatred and failed to notice his enemy’s laid-out traps. His overthinking caused him to have a muddled up mind.

His face turned grim when he saw the young man lifted his sword above. He was sneering at him with a wide grin.

“This sword had a special effect that could weaken my opponent whenever this sword wounded them, ” he finally understood the reason that he suddenly felt weak. Now, goodbye Mr. Legendary Sword Martial, ” the young man said in a mocking tone.

“I see, so it was high-Grade equipment,” he replied before closing his eyes. He did not expect that the young man would say it.

His doubt that the person in front of him was from one of the great families just getting stronger. After all, the commoners could not afford to buy such expensive equipment.

Yeman lifted the sword higher and made a downward strike to behead the enemy.

Heh, after a sneer, Swoosh! The air-tearing sound reached their ears.
