Return of the Calamity-Class Death Knight Chapter 33

The Return of the Destruction Level Death Knight Episode 33

Episode 33: Plain of Leaves (3)

“Pavel Bermondra.”

The duke knew the names and skills of all the knights participating in the duel.

Therefore, when I heard the name Pavel Bermond, I immediately remembered what kind of knight he was.

“I heard that among the duel candidate knights, he is quite outstanding.”

“You probably heard correctly.”

“If you’re skilled enough to be recommended by Sir Damian, then it’s clear… … .”

The duke trailed off.

As revealed in Fabian Vincenzo’s duel, the marquis’ knights were far superior in skill to the duke’s knights.

Even if he sent Pavel Bermond out, the Duke could not be sure of victory, so he had no choice but to hesitate.

“Your Excellency, although the Duke’s knights are strong, they are still of the same low class. There is no reason to be at a disadvantage.”

Damian Haxen began to persuade the duke.

“Sir Pavel Vermond has made a lot of preparations with me for this duel. He will not be defeated by any opponent.”

If the article sent this time loses, defeat is confirmed.

It was a situation where he could be accused of being the culprit of defeat if he made a mistake, but Damian Haxen didn’t seem to care at all.

That attitude gave the duke a strange sense of faith.

“Let me believe you. “Let Pavel Vermond come forward.”

At the duke’s command, Pavel Vermond walked out. Her face turned pale because she was so nervous.

“Pavel Bermond. Lord Damian Haxen recommended you. Are you confident you can live up to these expectations?”

Pavel Bermond was not quick to answer. She thought for a moment and then opened her mouth.

“… … Yes, I will bring victory even if it means sacrificing my life.”

The duke smiled in satisfaction at the answer.

“good night. Go and fight and come back.”

Pavel Bermond went out into the plain with his sword.

* * *

The Marquis’s cheers continued until Pavel Vermond walked out.

When Pavel Vermond arrived at the duel site in the center of the plain, the Marquis raised his fist high.

The soldiers’ cheering suddenly stopped. It was an amazing grip.

After a while, a knight walked out from the marquis’ camp.

He was a knight with a handsome appearance and bronze skin.

He had a great sword on his back and his face was full of confidence.

‘… … Stronger than me.’

As soon as he saw the article, Pavel Bermond instinctively realized something. The fact that this knight is stronger than himself.

“I call it Huey Selection. “What about that one?”

The marquis’ knight asked Pavel. Pavel Bermond caught her breath and answered.

“… … My name is Pavel Vermond.’

As soon as he heard the name, Huey Selection lamented at length.

“What, this is my first time hearing that name. I was hoping my opponent would be someone famous. Even if you win, no one will notice.”

Huey Selection shook his head. Unlike the article that first appeared, the words and actions were very light.

“Why not Damian Haxen instead of you? “That guy is quite famous and seems like he’s willing to fight.”

Damian Haxen.

When that name was mentioned, Pavel Vermond burst into laughter without even realizing it.

Then Huey Selection shook his head and asked.

“What are you splitting?”

“It must be funny that a wild dog is mentioning a tiger.”

Huey selection is strong. But not as good as Damian Haxen.

Damian Haxen’s strength was beyond common sense. There couldn’t be another monster like that.

“I know that not being famous can temper a person’s temper.”

Huey Selection lifted the great sword he was carrying on his back.

The long, thick greatsword was pulled out as easily as a tree branch.

At the same time, Huey Selection created magic. A powerful force came. It felt like I was hit by a craze.

“… … shit.”

Pavel Bermond muttered quietly.

I was just wondering. He was, after all, a stronger man than himself.

Can you really win if you fight? Her deep despair and doubts filled Pavel Vermond’s heart.

“Hey, why are you so upset? You need to tighten your butt and be on guard. Otherwise… … “It happens so quickly!”

Suddenly, Huey kicked the ground. Rushing at incredible speed, he tried to pierce Pavel Vermond’s solar plexus with the tip of the sword hilt.

Just before that, Pavel Vermond blocked the hilt with the blade of his long sword. His body was pushed back.

“oh… … “Do you think you’re quite capable?”

Huey Selection said with admiration. It felt like a superior was praising a subordinate.

“Why aren’t you saying anything? “Is it because you’re so surprised?”

As Huey Selection said, Pavel Vermond was so shocked that he could not continue speaking.

But the reason he was surprised wasn’t because he was ambushed by Huey Selection.

‘… … similar.’

The technique that Huey Selection demonstrated was the same as that used by Damian Haxen.

Whenever Pavel Vermond approached, Damian Haxen would often hit him in the solar plexus with the hilt of his sword.

‘… … ‘Is it a coincidence?’

Using the hilt of the sword rather than the blade itself is a method often seen in other sword techniques.

That’s why Pavel Vermond couldn’t be sure.

“I think I can enjoy it in my own way!”

Huey Selection lunged at Pavel Vermond. He immediately closed the distance between him and raised his great sword.

Huey Selection struck down his greatsword. It was so fast that you could hear the sound of the air being torn apart.

Pavel Bermond reflexively took a step back. The great sword fell to the ground at a narrow gap.

The great sword struck the ground. The ground was dug up and dust covered the two people.

“Let’s see if we can avoid this too!”

Immediately after that, a great sword came out, cutting through the dust. The broadsword swung sideways was aimed at Pavel Bermond’s side.

However, Pavel Bermond had already taken a defensive stance. He blocked the flying greatsword with his blade.

“… … Do you block this too?”

For the first time, a look of confusion appeared on Huey Selection’s face.

‘… … Nonsense.’

But the person who was even more surprised was Pavel Bermond.

‘Even this is similar?’

Damian Haxen always struck down his great sword, then rushed forward and made a horizontal cut.

At the time of sparring, the floor was stone, so there was no dust.

Nevertheless, because it was a technique that had been used so many times, the body responded reflexively.

At this point, it wasn’t quite the same. It was exactly the same.

‘I heard that the Marquis’ knights learn a sword technique called Lion’s Wiggeom… … How did Damian Haxen learn the lion-width sword?’

At that moment, one possibility appeared in Pavel Vermond’s mind.

spy.

Perhaps Damian Haxen is a spy sent by the Marquis?

‘… … ‘You came up with a crazy idea.’

However, Pavel Vermond quickly denied the speculation.

Two days ago, when the sparring was over, Damian Haxen said this to the dueling knights.

-Take a break for the remaining two days and reflect on what I taught you.

Damian Haxen’s advice was very helpful. Thanks to thinking about Damian Haxen’s moves several times, I was able to avoid Huey Selection’s attack.

‘There is no spy releasing the vision to a hostile family.’

Then there was only one possibility.

‘… … ‘I learned it by stealing.’

I’ve heard it before.

Among geniuses, there are those who imitate others’ movements just by seeing them.

A genius like Damian Haxen had a lot of potential.

‘No, Damian Haxen did not simply follow… … .’

It was the same lion-width sword, but Damian Haxen’s was of a much higher standard. The Huey Selection sword seemed like child’s play.

‘It wasn’t enough to steal and learn from the Marquis’ vision, so he surpassed the Marquis’ knights?’

Goosebumps appeared all over my body. As a result, Pavel Bermond’s body froze for a moment.

“I told you to focus!”

Huey Selection did not miss that opportunity. He brought his great sword down on the top of Pavel Vermond’s head.

This was also a technique that had been used many times by Damian Haxen.

Pavel Bermond caught the great sword with his blade and skillfully sent it away.

“This bastard… … !”

Huey Selection hit Pavel Vermond even harder. The great sword moved constantly.

But no sword worked on Pavel Vermond.

Pavel Vermond dodged the great sword very naturally. The last attack was countered with a sword.

The great sword was thrown back with a sharp sound of the blades hitting each other.

“Ugh?”

Embarrassment appeared on Huey Selection’s face. Pavel Vermond did not miss the opportunity.

Pavel Bermond, who had been retreating ever since the duel began, was the first to step forward.

He started using his sword skills and put pressure on Huey Selection.

“Ugh, ugh!”

Instead of resisting, Huey Selection was busy blocking Pavel Vermond’s attack.

I am being pushed back by an enemy I thought was a weakling.

Huey Selection’s face turned red in humiliation.

“You can’t do it in moderation!”

Huey Selection’s greatsword gained even more power. Pavel Vermond noticed this right away.

The long sword and the great sword were intricately intertwined. Pavel Vermond strengthened his hand and struck down the great sword.

The great sword slipped out of Huey Selection’s hand and flew into the distance.

Huey Selection looked at his empty hands with a blank face. At that time, the blade touched the nape of her neck.

“It’s my victory.”

Pavel Vermond calmly declared while pointing his sword.

“Waaaaaa!”

“Wow!”

Thunderous cheers greeted Pavel Vermond.

Pavel Bermond felt his whole body tingle from the tremendous shout.

Pavel Bermond put away his sword and looked towards the dukedom.

Then the cheers got louder. Pavel Bermond felt something rising in her chest.

At that time, Damian Haxen caught the eye of Pavel Vermond.

Unlike the people in the duchy who were so happy that they didn’t know what to do, Damian Haxen had an extremely calm expression.

As if this result was expected.

‘Damian Haxen… … .’

The excitement suddenly subsided.

Ominousness and fear filled the empty space.

‘What are you…? … ‘What is it?’

Pavel Vermond trembled as he asked a question that could not be answered.

* * *

“I never thought Sir Pavel Vermond would win so spectacularly.”

Gold Pixie Duke opened his mouth.

A smile that couldn’t be hidden was overflowing on his face.

“Sir Damian’s judgment was correct.”

“Sir Pavel Vermond has done a good job.”

“Aren’t you the one who recognized and recommended Sir Pavel Bermond?”

The Duke nodded and added:

“Unlike someone who suffered a defeat due to lack of insight.”

Sebastian Vincenzo lowered his head at the Duke’s barbed words.

“Then now only the representative’s duel remains. Are you confident?”

Damien said indifferently to the Duke’s question.

“Well, I’ll do it in moderation.”

* * *

“… … Please kill me.”

Huey Selection said while kneeling down in front of the Marquis.

“How can you say that? You did your best. “It’s just that the knight over there was stronger.”

The Marquis comforted Huey Selection.

It was impossible to punish a knight who fought for his family.

“And don’t be too upset. “After all, victory is ours.”

The Marquis turned his head.

Michael Ryanblum was standing a little distance away.

Michael Ryanbloom stood still and looked out at the plain.

“… … “Your Excellency is correct.”

Huey Selection said with a face full of respect.

To the Marquis’ knights, Michael Ryanbloom was like a symbol of invincibility.

“Let’s just go back and rest.”

Huey Selection bowed his head and then retreated.

The Marquis approached Michael.

Even as his father approached, Michael Ryanblum was still looking out at the plains.

“Michael.”

It was the same even though the Marquis called. The Marquis let out a long sigh.

It was just as I was about to call my son’s name again.

“Father, isn’t it strange?”

Suddenly Michael opened his mouth.

“Huey was stronger than the Duke’s knight. Two numbers? “No, I can be confident that I’m at least three moves higher.”

The Marquis agreed with Michael. Even in his judgment as a high-class person, the Huey selection was stronger.

Body, horsepower, skills, experience, etc.

It was of a different class from the unremarkable things that grew like orchids in the Duke’s home.

“But I lost. “I didn’t just lose, I was overwhelmed.”

The Duke’s knight blocked all of Huey Selection’s swords. After gaining the upper hand, they took the victory.

It was as if a dog had eaten a wolf.

“It means that the duke’s knight has completely seen through the Lion’s Wisdom Sword. But it’s really strange. “I didn’t think he was that talented.”

The Marquis nodded at his son’s words.

“I think the same. Maybe the Lion Width Sword was leaked. When I return, I will conduct a thorough investigation… … .”

“Father, that’s not it.”

Michael denied the Marquis’ words.

“The Lion Wig Sword was not leaked. That man found it. “He found it and taught it.”

Only then did the Marquis realize where Michael was looking.

Damian Haxen.

I was only looking at that man.

“Isn’t it amazing? Lion-shaped sword is by no means a low-level sword technique. It is a sword technique that has been constantly developed and improved by our ancestors. “It wasn’t enough that I figured it out, so I even taught it to other knights.”

This is something that ordinary talent cannot even dream of.

This is impossible for most geniuses.

“Father, you know. “I’ve never felt my heart pounding like this in my life.”

Michael placed his hand on his heart. His face was slightly flushed.

“I finally found someone like me.”

The Marquis looked at his son with a complicated face.

Originally, I was going to tell everyone that we must win.

But I couldn’t pour cold water on my son, who was so full of expectations.

More than anything, I felt like there was no need to say that.

“Michael, go and enjoy yourself.”

Michael picked up the sword at the Marquis’ words.

* * *

While walking to the battlefield, Michael Ryanbloom could feel his heart beating violently.

‘We finally met.’

Michael Ryanblum’s life could be summed up in just one word.

boredom.

When I held the knife for the first time, I was filled with anticipation.

When I first learned swordsmanship from my father, I thought it would be so fun.

When I met senior knights, I felt like I would turn away out of curiosity.

However, as the number of days I wielded the sword increased, my expectations and interest quickly cooled.

In short, it was too easy.

I was able to imitate the swordsmanship my father taught me with just one look.

Even knights who were stronger than him were no big deal when they actually fought.

At some point, Michael Ryanblum stopped going near the training ground.

I let go of the sword. I began to suffer from boredom and lethargy.

‘found.’

I thought that no enemy or rival would ever appear.

But today, we met in an unexpected place.

A genius with talent equal to his own.

A knight who will become his nemesis.

Michael Ryanblum stood in front of Damian Haxen.

“I’m Michael Ryanblum.”

Michael suppressed his anticipation and greeted me. Damian Haxen said after yawning.

“This is Damian Haxen.”

Michael Ryanbloom felt a smile escape his face.

“I’ve been waiting for someone like you for a long time.”

In my heart, I wanted to pull out the knife right away.

However, the other person was a precious opponent that I barely met.

I wanted to be properly formal.

“Someone who will fight on equal footing with me.”

Michael Ryanblum grabbed the hilt of the sword. My heart was beating violently.

“I will ask you earnestly. “Please don’t disappoint me.”

Michael Ryanbloom drew his sword. The blade shone coolly in the sunlight.

“equality?”

Damian Haxen blurted out a word.

“Have you not fully developed your talent? “Otherwise, there’s no way something like that would come out.”

The sound that came out of Damian Haxen’s mouth was completely different from Michael Ryanblum’s expectations.

“I can’t help it. “I have no choice but to come down a little further.”

What are you trying to say?

Michael Ryanblum was about to ask that question.

All of a sudden, I felt a chill running down my back. It felt as if my backside was being pulled with a rough hand.

Ominousness, a sense of crisis, fear.

All those emotions exploded.

Michael Ryanbloom pulled out his sword without realizing it. He aimed the tip at Damian Haxen.

No, I was trying to aim.

The tip of the sword could hardly be raised. It froze and turned downward.

I couldn’t even look at Damian Haxen properly, let alone aim my sword at him.

My whole body was shaking. Cold sweat fell on the ground.

“Michael Ryanbloom.”

Damian Haxen spoke quietly.

To Michael Ryanbloom, it felt like pricking his ear with an awl.

“Do you still see me as your equal?”

The knife fell to the ground.

Michael Ryanbloom knelt on the ground before he even realized he had put down the knife.

“lose… … .”

The mouth moved of its own accord. Michael Ryanbloom couldn’t even think of covering his mouth.

“I lost… … .”

Third duel.

The winner has been decided.
