Chapter 777: A Man's War (3)

Alan stood in the middle of the arena and realized that so many people had come to watch the battle, and shook his head at the moment. I thought it was just a private matter between two people, how could it attract so many people's attention. He glanced at it, and the largest number of them were naturally the soldiers of the Flame Vultures. In addition, there were quite a few important officials and Adahuaxing's envoys, and the people from these two sides together occupied a small half of the venue.

In the crowd, he saw Catherine. The latter raised his hand and made a "sure victory" gesture to him. Looking at Catherine's little face with a serious look, Alan really couldn't cry or laugh.

There was a whisper from the crowd, and Alan turned around, but it was Link walking in. The man had taken off his coat and was wearing only a battle suit, but he had no armor on him. He walked straight up to Eren and looked at him in the eye.

Alan frowned and said, "It's better for you to put on armor." ”

"Tired and caring." Link seemed to have regained his composure, speaking at a slower pace and in a calm tone. He held a blunt sword for practice in each hand, and pointed diagonally at the ground and said, "Armor is dispensable to me, if it is attacked by an opponent, then it doesn't make much difference to me whether or not there is armor." ”

Alan thought for a moment and said, "It seems that your swordsmanship is unique, so whatever you want, you have to be careful." ”

Link was a little surprised and said, "You can quickly associate my swordsmanship with special skills, and you are not useless. But I still think that you are not enough to protect Your Highness. ”

Alan smiled slightly, and raised the practice long knife: "Whether you have the ability to protect Lucy, you can determine for yourself." ”

"Gladly."

In the stands, a voice said: "Speaking of which, I have heard of Grand Duke Rebes's sword technique 'Stars', which seems to be both offensive and defensive. But didn't the Grand Duke always use the one-handed sword 'Disillusionment Galaxy'? Why does his son use dual swords, Marquis Metalon, you are the master of using double blades. Could it be that Link is still learning from you? ”

It was a middle-aged man in his forties who spoke, and his pointed ears were the most obvious sign of the Adahua star. This man looks thin, but his eyes are very sharp, and he has a faint gentle smile on his face, but his tone is far less gentle than the smile, but there is a faint pressing momentum.

Metalon turned his head and smiled indifferently: "Mr. Mira's imagination is really rich, that's right, Grand Duke Reyousi's sword skills can indeed use a one-handed sword to exert the great power of starry changes, and I, an old man, are indeed used to using dual swords." But Link was not my student, and my student was only Lucy from beginning to end. ”

"The reason Link uses dual swords is because he's a smart little guy. But at the same time, he is also a person with limited talents. Meta Long muttered: "The family of Grand Duke Rebes has a long history, and there are many masters in the family, and there are many capable people. Although he is the son of the Grand Duke, Link is definitely not the best one. On the contrary, as soon as he was born, the Grand Duke made a 'middle-of-the-art attitude' comment on his potential. ”

"Now, twenty-four is almost the limit of his potential for him. If he goes up, he will have to work tenfold, hundredfold harder, and he may not be able to do it. Perhaps knowing that his potential was limited, Link worked hard to catch up with his brothers, and targeted the few who had been known as geniuses since childhood. You may not understand that Link's demands on himself can almost be described as cruel. ”

Metalon narrowed his eyes and said, "Grand Duke Rebes's family sword technique 'Stars' has always been used with one-handed swords. Link is limited by talent and is unable to perform the essence of the stars with a one-handed sword. But he found another way, separating the attack and defense in the starry sword technique, and using it with two swords. This kind of thinking is not the way that people who came before us. It's just that the original sword technique that fits the world is forcibly split into two halves, and the original power of the sword technique is restored with two swords, which is ten times more difficult than a one-handed sword. ”

"It's easier said than done." Mira smiled, "In this way, the son of the Grand Duke of Rebes has chosen an extremely difficult path for himself. ”

"Indeed, and his path on the martial arts path is almost at the end. Otherwise, with the status of Archduke Rebes, how could he only let Link enter the Ministry of Justice and serve as a civilian magistrate? "He was a hard-working boy who went into politics when he realized that he couldn't give back to his family by force," Metalon said. He also said that the Grand Duke of Rebes supported His Majesty, so as to qualify as a candidate for marriage to His Royal Highness. I hope to further strengthen the relationship with the royal family, so as to repay the family on another level. ”

"Then it's no wonder he's so close to His Highness. Otherwise, His Majesty has many children, and His Royal Highness Lucy is not the only royal daughter of the right age. But Her Royal Highness Lucy is the only qualified person for the Golden Rose, and if she can be taken as a wife, Link will definitely be worth twice as much. ”

"That's for sure, but that's not the only thing Link wants to marry His Highness. The two of them have known each other since childhood, His Royal Highness Lucy lost his mother at an early age, and His Majesty was afraid of thinking of his deceased wife, so he deliberately alienated His Highness, who was very similar to his mother. Link saw it in his eyes, and he felt quite sympathetic. I'm afraid that his thoughts have been buried when he was young. It's a pity that His Highness doesn't have a feeling for him in terms of men and women......"

"I see." Mira suddenly said: "I didn't expect there to be so many twists and turns here. ”

Looking at the scene again, Alan and the two have already separated, put on a posture, and it looks like they are about to start. Mira was silent for the moment, and looked intently into the field. Metalon's eyes fell to the gate on the other side of the field, where Lucy was leaning against it. But her gaze fell on Allen's body, and she only swept towards Link occasionally, but only swept away. Metalon sighed in his heart, fearing that Link's efforts would be in vain.

As long as Lucy's heart is on Allen, although the duel has finally begun, Link has already lost.

"Let's get started." Link Road.

Alan nodded.

Then both pounced at the same time.

Allen stepped on small steps, attacked slowly, and his body was unpredictable. This footwork was stolen from Catherine, and when Catherine pursued him that day, this footwork alone made him completely inferior, and it was quite a taste of surrendering without a fight. If Link tries to guess Allen's movements and try to scrutinize his actions, then he will fall into the disadvantage and be led by Allen's nose.

Seeing that Alan used her own footwork, Catherine smiled slightly, quite proud. But then his eyes lit up, but Link didn't pay any attention to Allen's complicated footwork to confuse his opponent, and stabbed at Allen with a sword. Although the source force was triggered at the end, the sword intent was full of a killing aura of a golden iron horse, which made people dare not despise it. Catherine knew that this Minister of Justice was not the kind of rookie who only knew how to practice swords, but had never been on the battlefield!
