Reborn as the Enemy Prince

Chapter 12. Living (6)

Slayman was the second sword master of the continent.

That meant that among those alive, he was the second oldest person to take the path of the sword. Of course, the period of time spent as a sword master could not be considered to be completely proportional to strength, but the time spent after enlightenment could not be completely ignored.

To put it simply, Slayman was a strong man.

Slayman’s sword resembled its owner’s personality. It was heavy but not dull.

– Shhh!

Every time Slayman’s sword moved, there was a sound of the air being torn apart. The blue light of the auror shimmering along the tip of the sword repeatedly left an afterimage before disappearing.

Calian’s sword was extremely fast. But it was never loud.

Calian’s sword cut back the air that Slayman tore out. It passes through Slayman’s sword like a shower, making a sound like angry thunder.

– Sigh!

Sleiman’s sword came aiming for Kalian’s neck. Calian, who quickly turned his body to dodge, extended his sword towards Slayman’s momentarily exposed side. When Slayman struck away Kalian’s sword, Kalian immediately aimed for Slayman’s heart.

Everyone pours water on each other.

Neither of them took matters into their own hands.

This is because what Calian asked for was not a gentle sparring.

Gray Brisen. and Evan Briesen.

It was bound to happen that they and Calian would clash swords. Therefore, in order to deal with them, it was necessary to accurately understand the power of Calian himself.

– Kaaaang! Kang! Kaang!

Therefore, Sleiman was now helping Kalian bring out his limitations.

The blue auror rushed towards Calian’s shoulder, but Calian was no longer there. Instead, a sharply forged magic sword flew from behind Slayman. Before I knew it, Calian’s sword, which had gone behind Slayman, was already within a stone’s throw.

fast!

Kalian was so fast that even Slayman sometimes missed his movements. As he lacked muscle strength, the power in the sword was also insufficient, but the speed at which he moved the sword was unusual.

Slayman retrieved his sword and struck with a sword made of magical power.

– Kaang!

The attack and defense of cutting, blocking, slashing, and letting go continued without stopping. The sound of a lump of magic sharper than blades colliding filled the training room.

Calian, who let go of Sleiman’s sword once more, strengthened the hand holding the sword.

– Kang! Kagang! Kaaaang!

The four slashes that followed in an instant targeted Slayman’s vital points. Sleiman’s sword gained strength and struck down all of Calian’s swords.

It was a fairly sharp attack, but because Slayman defended it without much difficulty, Kalian’s mouth drew a long line. As the stronger killing power was directed towards Slayman, the same energy spread out from Slayman and tried to tighten Kalian’s hands and feet.

– Taaat!

Calian’s feet moved as if he was stepping on air.

After that, Calian’s appearance disappeared without fail, so Slayman quickly stretched out his sword and tried to block Calian’s movements. Calian then let it go with a motion that seemed to gently sweep the blade of the sword.

Slayman pulled the deviated sword with force. He had no hesitation in extending or retrieving his sword, as if he were alone and free from inertia.

Slayman swung the sword he had recovered towards Kalian’s upper body. Calian deflected the attack once again with his sword.

Slayman grinned.

“How can you know the limits of your power when you’re stretched out like this?”

Soon, Slayman concentrated his strength on the sword in his hand.

– Ugh!

Slayman’s sword made a trembling sound.

Then the blue light became even darker. The amount of auror contained in the sword has increased.

Calian’s eyes narrowed when he felt that.

– Coo!

Slayman threw himself violently against the floor of the training room.

He then raised his sword above his head and slashed Calian’s body with the force of splitting it in two. Calian quickly raised his sword horizontally and blocked the attack. A chill that seemed to freeze all the blood flowing through his body flowed like fog through Slayman’s sword.

But at that very moment.

Calian’s sword blinked like a light and then disappeared.

“……!”

It was unable to properly withstand Slayman’s aura, which was several times heavier than his own.

This happened when Sleiman’s sword, which was trying to strike, and Calian’s sword, which was trying to block it, were in contact with each other. As Calian’s sword disappeared, Slayman’s sword lost its support momentarily and fell.

When something unexpected happened, Slayman made a startled noise and tried to retrieve the sword. But Kalian moved one step faster.

As soon as Calian felt the magic that formed the sword dissipate, he immediately turned around. Thus, the tip of Slayman’s sword barely grazed the side of Kalian’s face.

A long, thin blood line appeared on Kalian’s cheek.

However, instead of worrying about the wound or the fact that he had discovered the big problem of the sword disappearing, Calian immediately grabbed the recreated sword.

– Shhh!

Calian, who was out of the range of Slayman’s sword, disappeared. Sleiman instinctively turned his waist backwards and extended his sword.

As soon as the number was read, Calian stepped on Sleiman’s extended sword and launched himself again. And the body that briefly floated in the air added to the falling force and struck down the magical sword. It was aimed precisely at the top of Slayman’s head.

Sleiman quickly twisted his sword to block it and then straightened it out. The sound of blades tangling wildly rang out again.

– Kaang!

Sleiman and Kalian’s eyes met as swords clashed.

And this time Calian grinned.

A sound similar to the one made by Slayman’s sword a moment ago came from Calian’s sword.

– Ugh!

The condensation of magic power, which looked like a piece of glass, was tinged with blue light. The magical sword made of aura was once again coated with aura.

Calian’s fighting spirit was stronger than ever.

I also have the cards I saved.

Calian’s sword said so.

– Boo!

Slayman did not wait and swung his sword once again. Calian’s feet moved faster, and a magic sword overflowing with blue light fell towards Slayman’s shoulder. Slayman twisted his sword and flicked it away. Calian, whose attack was blocked, turned his sword and raised it, but Slayman deflected it.

– Taaat!

Kalian disappeared from Slayman’s sight again.

Knowing that there was no point in chasing the afterimage, Slayman opened his senses. And he extended his sword toward the direction where he felt Calian’s steps were heading. However, Slayman’s sword cut through the air in vain.

The move has already been read once, but isn’t it Calian who will make the same attack again?

Only after thinking like that did Slayman realize that he had been deceived and quickly turned around. Before I knew it, I could see Calian standing on the other side swinging his sword towards Slayman’s neck. Slayman was surprised and blocked the attack.

– Kaaaang!

Calian’s sword barely stopped right next to Slayman’s neck.

There was a long wound on Slayman’s neck and blood began to flow.

And at the same time

– wow!

Slayman’s sword roared once again.

The aura soaked into the sword changed to the same color as the deep sea.

Calian’s eyes widened as he sensed a more threatening sound and energy. Unbelievably, the aura that Slayman possesses has become stronger once again.

With that, Slayman raised his arms high.

And then he plunged his sword straight at Calian.

Dangerous.

It is not a sword that can be shed.

All of Calian’s senses were screaming that.

Calian gathered all the aurors he had left to protect himself and transferred them to his sword. And in an instant, he raised the approaching sword of Slayman with all his might.

– Quang!

A loud roar erupted, louder than any sound I had ever heard.

– Damn it!

There was a crack in Slayman’s heavy sword.

At the same time, Calian’s sword lost its light, scattered in all directions, and disappeared.

It has reached its limit.

* * *

There was a long crack on Slayman’s sword.

A long scratch appeared in Slayman’s heart as he looked at it.

It wasn’t because of the sword. Of course, it is a shame that the beloved sword was broken. However, Slayman’s thoughts were not narrow enough to be heartbroken over such a thing.

I once heard a strange saying somewhere that there was no point in raising a daughter.

okay.

Let’s say I’ve heard at least once that there’s no point in raising a son or daughter by making more concessions.

no. Anyway, that’s true.

My baby’s neck is still bleeding profusely!

“You cut your face so you could get a scar! Are you okay anywhere else? Is there anything broken or broken?”

I saw Yan, who opened the training room door as if to break it open and rushed in, immediately running to Calian, worrying about Calian, pampering him and worrying if he would break if he touched it. Sleiman, who thought of himself as a man with a very broad mind, grunted at Jan, who was fidgeting because of Kalian’s incontinence-like wound, which was healing on its own.

“I don’t think that kid is my kid at all.”

There was a small laughing sound next to Slayman. It was Hina.

Hina’s hands were shining. The wound on Sleiman’s neck was being treated.

Of course, the two were not the only ones who ran in surprise at the loud noise that rang out from the training room. All the knights who were with Kirie in the inner city were gathered together. Thanks to this, Sleiman had one more thing to be unfair about.

In the fight just now, Slayman clearly won.

Since I didn’t even use up all my auras, I won quite comfortably.

However, Calian’s broken black form was not left behind.

Slayman’s sword cracked sharply.

The wound on Calian’s face wasn’t big to begin with, but thanks to the power of the blessing, it was healing little by little. There was a stab wound half a span in length on Slayman’s neck.

“Duke… you really lost…?”

So, Yuran had no choice but to ask this question with great hesitation.

Slayman was speechless and Kalian burst into laughter again.

* * *

In the morning there was light in the cavity, and in the afternoon there was heavy drinking in Slayman’s training room. Just because Kalyan came, the land of the elephants, which had always been quiet, was shaken.

And that evening, a grand dinner was held.

It was a noisy event where everyone gathered together, including Calian and Slayman, as well as Calian’s companions, Alan’s family Rachel and Veronica, and the twenty knights who guarded Calian.

Thus, Kalian was finally able to hear Slayman’s violin, which he had been looking forward to. It was such a great performance that it was hard to believe that it was a hand that wielded a sword. Because of this, Kalian was truly moved.

After a while, Slayman put down the violin and came to sit next to Kalian.

“I heard you well. I knew you were good with a sword, but the violin. It’s really amazing.”

“Isn’t it Siegfried? Even if you can’t use a sword, you can definitely play the violin.”

Slayman, who said this, let out a characteristic loud laugh.

Slayman’s wounds, which were treated by Hina, were healed considerably, although not completely. Slayman, who saw Calian examining the wound on his neck, waved his hand as if to tell him not to worry.

“It doesn’t even tickle this much!”

“It helped me a lot. Thank you.”

Calian smiled and expressed his gratitude once again.

Didn’t you learn that the sword disappears when it encounters a force that exceeds its limit? Moreover, since I knew how much power the magical sword would disappear, there was no other harvest greater than that. If the same thing had happened a moment ago when the fight actually broke out, it would have been really dangerous.

So now it was time to practice using aurors and magic while keeping the sword from disappearing.

“I’m glad it helped, too.”

Slayman’s face was slightly red as he said this. Since I’m dealing with an Auror, I may not get drunk, but I’m not forcing myself to get drunk.

Kalian poured wine into Slayman’s glass. Slayman also asked Kalian if he would like some wine, but Kalian shook his head.

Since the drivers were moderately drunk, the surroundings became quite noisy. I hated hearing Hail Latran pretending to be drunk and making noise, but now I was really excited.

As I was sitting quietly looking around, Slayman opened his mouth next to me.

“There’s nothing special about fast swordsmanship, so it’s okay.”

Kalian turned his head and looked at Slayman.

Slayman continued speaking in a low voice.

“It is a characteristic of Secretia knights to place strength on their waist first when cutting horizontally with their sword or after repeated strikes, prince.”

As if to prove that the name was not in vain, Slayman had an accurate grasp of Kalian’s swordsmanship.

“Thanks to my son, I’ve heard a lot of stories about the prince. Of course, I also heard how much he hated swordsmanship classes. However, with Secretia’s swordsmanship, he took up the sword path in just a few months and accumulated a lot of money in the meantime. “There are more Aurors than you might think. It would not be enough time to learn how to handle Aurors right after entering the path of the sword, but it feels like you already know how to handle and build up Aurors… It’s a little strange.”

Calian waited for Slayman’s next words without changing his expression.

Slayman tapped his thigh and spoke again.

“Anyway. In Kairis, the focus is on the legs. If you look at swordsmanship separately, whether you use your back or your legs can be said to be just a personal habit, but if you think about it in conjunction with other noticeable points, you will grow doubts. . Even if others don’t, you can recognize the Margrave of Briseen, so you must pay attention.”

It would not be strange for Calian to use the sword of the Secretian knights, but if you think about it in relation to other situations where Calian showed a drastic change, you might be suspicious of Calian’s identity, so be careful.

Instead of answering, Kalian looked at Slayman. Slayman, who read the meaning in those eyes, said with a grin.

“This is Siegfried. There is no use for the leader elephant to find out what is inside the three princes’ shells. Let’s compete one more time later.”

Calian responded briefly to those words.

“Thank you.”

Slayman poured wine into Kalian’s glass.

I didn’t force Kalian, who said he wouldn’t drink, to drink, but I just did it to make it look like I was having a natural conversation to the people around me.

“I’m a bit curious as to how it happened, so could you please tell me?”

Calian smiled slightly and shook his head.

“It just happened to be like that and I just live like that.”

Sleiman laughed in response and looked at Yan and then back at Kalian.

“Does that guy know the truth?”

“That’s a question I want to ask more about. I don’t know if he’s pretending not to notice even though he notices it or if he really doesn’t know.”

“You probably know.”

Slayman, who was smiling while saying that, briefly remembered what kind of person his son was. Then he smiled and added quietly.

“…You probably don’t really know.”

Oh no way.
