[EP.31] Tue Martial Arts Tournament Finals
The final round of the Epanian Empire Martial Arts Competition.
Before we knew it, the finals had come to a close and we had reached the final round.
However, strangely enough, instead of the adult section, which was supposed to be the most focused, it was the boys section that attracted people’s attention.
The reason was none other than Krad, the main character rumored to be a member of the Night Ravens.
A narrow-eyed boy with a crow on his shoulder.
His military power was as outstanding as his significant appearance.
Until now, he had suppressed all of them with a single blow of his fist, without even once pulling out the sword on his belt.
Because of this, people were questioning whether the sword was actually a fake.
The final finals began with many people raising questions.
“You’ve waited a long time!”
“Waaaaaa!”
The boys’ stadium exploded with loud cheers from the people.
Everyone who filled the empire’s largest indoor stadium was looking forward to the finals.
“The final match of this martial arts competition’s boys’ division begins now!”
The host shouted and raised his left arm.
“Introducing the first of the two finalists! A boy who grew up in a rural village and has the ambition to one day prevent world erosion and protect world peace! Fellay!”
With the host’s shout, a boy walked into the stadium.
He appeared with a hesitant attitude, looking like a 14-year-old boy with an ordinary appearance.
“Felay, cheer up!”
“Boy, don’t lose to something like a night crow!”
Then, more people than expected cheered him on.
Because he was like a ray of light for the common people.
Unlike nobles, a boy from an ordinary rural village trained his sword and advanced to the finals of a martial arts competition.
The common people were influenced by him and supported him more actively.
“And the other person… … Belonging to the Night Crow, a famous family in the infamous underworld where everyone gets scared just by saying their name! “There are rumors going around.”
The host clearly understood the people’s needs and smiled brightly.
“Krad!”
And with the host’s shout, a crow suddenly flew up from the participant entrance passage.
“Caw!”
A crow soaring in the sky with a loud noise immediately caught people’s attention.
The crow is a symbol of ominousness.
The moment when the commotion stopped for a moment due to the appearance of such a crow.
Ttuktuk-tap-
A boy slowly walked out from the entrance.
The beautifully closed eyes beneath the jet-black hair made it difficult to tell what he was imagining, and the energy radiating from the boy created a strange sense of pressure.
In that atmosphere, as he climbed onto the stadium, a crow flying in the sky slowly landed on his shoulder.
“… … okay. “I told you I won’t do things like this from now on.”
Then, as he muttered to himself, he raised his head and in an instant, people cheered loudly throughout the stadium.
“Night crow!!!”
“I bet on you coming first! Win!!!”
“Show me what a famous assassin is!!!!”
Krashu looked ahead amidst the cheers that rang out here and there.
Fellay reflected in his eyes.
Looking at him again, he looks ordinary.
However, even though he looks like that, he is a member of Laheln Academy and of course, the generation of the firmament.
‘I didn’t expect to see you here.’
Those hopeful eyes seem to be the same as ever.
So Crasch clearly remembered the day when hope faded from his eyes.
But unfortunately, other things take priority now than dealing with him.
Anyway, the intended goal was achieved.
“Krad.”
At that moment, Fellay suddenly spoke up.
“Are you really from the Night Ravens?”
He seems like a naive guy.
Instead of answering, Krasch lightly relaxed his neck.
Anyway, this work is practically finished.
So all that was left was to run wild so that the other side could make a big move.
“If that’s the case, it’s better to come out right away.”
At that moment, unexpected words came out of Fellay’s mouth.
“They said this martial arts competition was held by the Epanian imperial family to attract additional students to Laheln Academy. “You and I made it to the finals, so we will definitely be able to enter Raheln Academy.”
This information is already widely known.
It was nothing new, but Fellay said it condescendingly.
“Laheln Academy is an independent academy where no country can interfere. “There, you too can escape the night crows.”
And a story full of dreams and hope emerged.
Unfortunately, Raheln Academy is not that great of an academy.
As it was only recently established, Laheln Academy’s power is small.
Because of this, except for the early stages, it is not long before they are caught up in the battles between empires and kingdoms.

‘thinking back.’
There were several reasons why Raheln Academy was so swayed.
It wasn’t something to be solved right away, and it wasn’t in Krasch’s interest.
“Felay.”
So, Krasch drew his sword for the first time in this competition.
Seeing that, while the audience cheered again, Krashu pointed the sword at Fellay.
“If you are too hopeful, you will not be able to overcome the despair that comes your way.”
“what?”
“The game begins!”
The referee’s voice rang out with advice he couldn’t understand now.
It was Fellay who opened the battle.
Strangely, he came gliding across the floor.
‘This is a walking technique that this guy developed himself.’
The place where Felei lived is the highest place in the empire near the north.
A place where it snows all year round.
Growing up there, Fellay walked on slippery ice and snow, and as a result developed walking techniques to help him move more efficiently.
I may not have given it a name yet, but Krasch knows the name.
Ten steps of a thousand miles
It was a walking method that was said to cover a thousand miles in ten steps.
‘If you’re meeting someone for the first time, they’ll be embarrassed.’
Even though I thought it was quite far away, it came right in front of me in an instant.
As proof, Fellay came right in front of Crashu in just one moment.
Among the commoners, Pele is the only one who has risen to the generation of the firmament through talent and effort.
He was as strong as Anix even at this time of year.
visor!
But the opponent was bad.
“Huh?!”
Felei’s sword, which was aimed at the waist with a mixture of herbs and herbs, was blocked by Krashu’s sword.
Fellay’s eyes opened wide, as if he knew where his sword would go.
“I don’t think I’m at the level to give advice to others.”
When Krasch provoked Fellay, he bit his lip and immediately continued striking with his sword.
It is a sword that can cut down a tree with 10,000 swings and a rock with 100,000 swings.
Just by looking at the calluses in his hands, you could tell how much he had trained his sword.
Achieving a pelay was clearly a lifelong training exercise.
But there was more to it than that training.
‘The experience of knowing the other person.’
The person who was able to observe the Changgong generation the most because he had to be behind everyone else.
That was himself.
‘My sixth sense.’
The aura surrounding Krasch’s body awakened a new sense.
Accordingly, wherever Felei’s sword flew, Krashu’s sword was already in place.
Before the concept of heocho, silcho, etc., it starts with his little habits, all the way to Fellay’s special move.
Krasch knew everything.
It was the only talent he didn’t realize.
The talent to understand and remember everything about others, even though they have nothing of their own.
Clearly it was a useless talent in the past.
Even if you observe others well and are quick to notice, the only response you get back is that you feel bad.
But at this moment, that talent began to bloom for the first time.
visor! visor! visor! visor! visor! visor!
All the swords Fellay wielded returned to nothing in front of Krashu.
Even the audience was involuntarily mesmerized by the sight.
It was so fast that it was difficult to follow the black eyes of Fellay, who was handling the pleasure.
Even imperial knights exclaimed in admiration at his incredible ability for someone his age.
But Krasch was one step above him.
It’s as if all of Fellay’s successive attacks are playing into Krashu’s hands.
His attack was blocked without even reaching Krashu.
blunt sword
A swordsmanship that obviously moves slower than the opponent, but reaches his space before the opponent does.
Krasch had completely entered that realm at this moment.
“I can’t reach it.”
“What is that?”
Seeing that, people suddenly began to fall silent.
Those who were implicitly cheering for Pellay gradually lowered their voices.
It was overwhelming.
Overdo feels that no matter what Fellay does, he will not be able to defeat Krashu.
Everyone here felt that overwhelming feeling with their own eyes.
[Hahahaha. ]
Before we knew it, the laughter of Crimson Garden soared into the sky and rang loudly.
[Yes, child. ]
As if she was happy about the current situation, she spread her crow’s wings in the sky.
[That’s the only number you have. If you have nothing, take everything the other person has. Show all the organs of your greed. ]
A blunt sword is a sword technique that takes away the opponent’s space.
No matter where the opponent’s sword goes, that sword dominates the space first.
Ironically, the dull sword was a sword technique that suited Krasch better than anyone else.
Because he can only stand on top if he takes everything away.
“Ugh, huh!”
Fellay’s voice rang out.
Clearly, it is you who is attacking.
Still, he was retreating further and further back.
No matter how much I swung my sword, I couldn’t move forward.
This was because Krasch’s sword took over all the space he had.
It was Krasch, who was a little shorter than himself.
But for some reason, each time the sword was blocked, his presence began to grow bigger and bigger.
Fellay got the sense from Krashu to swing his sword at the rock.
Can you cut this rock yourself?
That feeling of despair took over his body.
“Felay.”
At that moment, Krasch’s voice rang out.
When Fellay raised his head, he was already in front of his black neck.
“Ha, ha, ha.”
A heavy breathing came out of Fellay’s mouth.
The sword Fellay swung was only about 1cm from his neck at most.
Even though it was clearly Pele who swung the sword.
The cold sweat running down Felei’s cheek touched Krashu’s sword.
It was that close.
“Be strong.”
And then, towards Fellay, Krashu opened his mouth.
“Even if your hopes are ultimately dashed, you can leave a spark behind.”
Crasch left behind an incomprehensible remark, and with that he plunged his fist into Fellay’s solar plexus.
Chon Kyeong (寸勁)
With two resounding impacts, Fellay fell down, spit pouring out.
With that, Krasch turned around.
Krashu also kept a poker face, even though his mouth was full of breath and his lungs were being stabbed in the aftermath of using a blunt sword.
And that moment.
“Waaaaaaaaaa!”
The stadium erupted in cheers like never before.
It was truly an overwhelming blunt sword.
There was no one who couldn’t help but scream when they saw this.
“Ah, the winner!”
And the host, who belatedly came to his senses, raised his hand.
“Krad!”
The moment he declared victory, pointing to Krasch, the stadium rang loudly once again.
“K-Rad!”
At that moment, Krasch turned his head to the voice he heard behind him.
I never thought I would come to my senses so quickly even after being hit.
“Can we meet again?”
Indeed, I didn’t join the generation of the sky for nothing.
Krasch said after seeing him tenaciously maintaining his sanity.
“Yes, at the academy.”
“I see.”
He completely lost his mind after that.
I’m sure we’ll see each other again.
Although it may not look like this, it will look different.
“thank you. Krasch, I will do my best to surpass the curse you brought with me. “I will protect the world.”
For a moment, an old incident came to mind.
This is what he told me when I stole the curse from Felei, who returned after being cursed with world erosion.
It was the first time I heard a word of gratitude in a long time.
However, Fellay came a month later.
He slowly died as his limbs were eaten away by the master of world erosion.
Krasch’s fist clenched.
‘do not worry. Felei.’
And Krasch’s head slowly rose.
“I’m the one protecting it this time.”
Not others, but myself.
And for that.
‘Sigrin.’
It ruins her plans.
