“Ugh!”
Christine gritted her teeth and wrapped her arms around herself. Bullets of wind beat her body mercilessly. However, despite the attack, Christine’s hair was slightly scattered and she did not appear to have suffered any damage.
“joy! Do you think the Paladin of Sayre will succumb to this level of attack?”
As expected, Aero Bullet’s power was not that high as it was a 1-circle spell. I made 30 of them and shot them, but they had little effect. Cilan, who was watching from behind, shouted.
“No, why are you using magic just now?”
Although the Sayre Church worked hard to create a sacred sword targeting Auror users, the results were actually not very satisfactory. Although it looked similar on the outside, the contents were heavenly. Regardless of its power or anything else, it cannot be compared to a proper Blade Auror.
King Repenhardt’s skills are among the highest among Auror users. That’s why he pushed Silan to fight with peace of mind. However, Cilan was upset when Repenhardt did not think of using him as an Aur and only fought as a pure wizard.
Repenhardt answered with a wry smile.
“What’s strange about a wizard using magic?”
Repenhardt had no intention of revealing himself as an Auror user now. It was because he wanted to not stand out among people, but he also found it fun to fight as a wizard for the first time in a long time. How much humiliation has he suffered in the meantime due to his magical power and computational power? Now that he can finally fight as a wizard like before, he’s honestly a little excited.
“Oh, please! “Life is at stake here!”
‘Wow, I’m secretly pissed at being ignored like this.’
Now that he has entered a strange body, he has become a man who throws punches, but he was once a great mage of the 10th circle who reached the pinnacle of magic. I am proud of myself as the best and strongest wizard in human history, but why are you looking at me with such distrust?
Leffenhardt pouted.
“Oh, I didn’t write it because I didn’t know it wouldn’t work to this extent! “Just have some faith!”
The reason he deliberately created and launched thirty wind bullets was not with the purpose of defeating his opponent.
Even if the opponent is a crazy woman, killing her will upset her dreams, so it is necessary to know in advance how to control the power of the magic. So, the opponent’s physical strength and durability were determined by the repulsion force generated when the wind bullet hit Christine. The palpation that doctors give to patients is done through magic. If other wizards had found out about this, they would have been shocked.
‘This is such a high level of magic operation, but I can’t even recognize it.’
Rumbling under his breath, Reppenhardt continued his order.
“A cloth of darkness covers the eyes, Darkness Veil! Everything slips! Greece! Flowing glaciers give birth to the shadow of death! Prison Shadow!”
Reppenhardt, who widened the distance, immediately blocked Christine’s steps by covering her eyes and making her feet slippery. In his past life, he had learned the techniques of dealing with warriors ad nauseam. All the spells naturally connected, Christine’s movements stopped, and immediately her cold shadow ran across the ground and bound her ankles.
“Ugh!”
Christine panicked and panicked as her feet were blocked by ice above her ankles. Leppenhardt muttered leisurely after trapping the opponent like that.
“It will take about 30 seconds to free the frozen ankle with your strength, so let’s end the duel quickly.”
Reppenhardt began chanting, aiming his finger at Christine, who was unable to move. As Christine frowned, she suddenly muttered.
“I have no choice, I have no choice but to use the power that Sayer has given me!”
And then I started taking long, deep breaths. At that moment, Repenhardt stopped chanting in surprise.
‘Um, what about that?’
If a person who has reached the level of a magician stops chanting, he is not usually surprised. Christine, who had changed her breathing, suddenly widened her eyes and strengthened her legs.
“Haaa!”
Ujijik!
The ice that was freezing my ankles broke all at once and scattered into fragments. Pulling out a frozen leg by force? No matter how big Christine was, it was a ridiculous story. It was never a power granted to ordinary humans. That power is like… … .
“uh? “Was Christine an Auror user?”
Silan thought in a daze. However, to be considered an Auror user, the light on the blade was pure white. Christine raised her sword and spoke triumphantly towards Reppenhardt.
“I have not had the honor of becoming an Auror. But Sayer was so kind to me that he gave me a body equal to theirs! “Hohohoho!”
Seeing her smiling excitedly, Reppenhardt hurriedly asked a question.
“Hey, you! “Who did you learn that breathing technique from?”
The reason why Leffenhardt was shocked was not because Christine suddenly showed super strength. This was because the breathing method he had practiced before was something he was very familiar with.
Christine tilted her head and answered calmly.
“It was when I was a young girl before I could serve Sayer. An old man came to me and taught me this breathing technique, saying it was the secret to staying healthy. I didn’t know it then, but I know it now. That I was the one guided by Sayer to use me as his sword. Because of this breathing method, I have become a much sharper sword even among the Holy Knights of Sayre!”
Christine had a dazed look on her face due to her endless faith in Sayer. His face was as if he was extremely grateful that his grace was like the sun and the sun.
And Reppenhardt cursed under his breath.
‘OMG! Master, what on earth has this guy done?’
He recognized it right away. The breathing method that Christine just used was Jim Unbreakable’s unique physical growth breathing, or simply put, the secret to increasing height.
Of course, that breathing method has the greatest effect on physical growth, but it is originally a secret method for strengthening the body. If applied well, it could temporarily increase strength like that. The fact that he had reached that level was proof that he had been practicing that breathing technique consistently for at least 10 years.
‘That’s why the kid covered it up so ignorantly!’
He lamented when he saw Christine performing a breathing technique that was impossible even for him—Reppenhardt had deliberately avoided this breathing technique.
Gerard said that before he took over the young Tethron, he wandered around the continent looking for a talent to succeed Jim Unbreakable. It seems that he also met young Christine in the meantime. Although I probably gave up because it wasn’t enough to succeed Unbreakable, I felt like I wanted to give something out of disappointment.
‘It certainly seems like he has the qualities to make his master feel sorry for him.’
Just being able to do that breathing technique in the first place is an incredible talent. That breathing method is not something that just anyone can learn and benefit from. If it worked for everyone, Jim Unbreakable would have made a lot of money just from this. There are so many men in the world who are sad because they are short.
‘Oh my, Master…’ … .’
Leffenhardt stuck his tongue out. Gerard, who knows that bigger is always better, may have taught me that breathing technique with good intentions, but the result was… … .
‘It’s oily residue that stands in the way of a girl with a bright future getting married!’
Leffenhardt looked at Christine with a sad feeling. She still had no idea that her own height had anything to do with her breathing. Leffenhardt swallowed.
‘If this is discovered, I’ll be in big trouble.’
The act that brought Silan so much blood may come back to Reppenhardt this time. And instead of looking at him with love, he held a poisoned blade!
“however… … “Is this a problem now?”
Christine suddenly looked puzzled. Reppenhardt waved his hand impatiently and burst into laughter.
“no! No problem! It has nothing to do with anything! “Hehehe!”
“Then let’s continue the duel!”
“That’s right. “Let’s duel quickly!”
Christine, Cilan, and Siris all tilted their heads at the sight of Repenhardt suddenly showing fierce enthusiasm for the duel. Reppenhardt, who wanted to quickly change the subject somehow, immediately cast a spell.
“Soaring blade wings! Wing cutter!”
Christine also burst into spirit by throwing her body towards them.
“Taaaat!”
Christine attacked fiercely with her greatly strengthened body. Repenhardt also calmly responded with magic each time. With the heat wave raging and electric shocks coming and going, the two exchanged vigorously.
Naturally, the situation was Leppenhardt’s absolute advantage.
He was a devil in name and identity. Even if he uses magic of the 6th circle or lower, his operating level is that of a 10th circle archmage. Even though he had the physical ability to rival that of an Auror user, Christine’s skills were not enough to even touch Reppenhardt’s collar. Moreover, they are not comparable in speech; only their strength is similar, but their quickness, visual acuity, reflexes, speed, and insight are significantly lower than those of Auror users, so it was not difficult at all.

Nevertheless, Christine managed to confront Reppenhardt. Perhaps because he had committed a crime, Reppenhardt was unable to counterattack in earnest and was only focusing on defense.
Christine suddenly became angry as she watched Reppenhardt block her sword strikes with a magic barrier one after another.
“Ahhhh! “Why aren’t you losing?”
“No, then the opponent must lose in a duel?”
“Like a wizard, you speak well! “You must have tempted that naive Cilan with those sweet words, right?”
I answered the obvious, but I don’t know why I thought that was a good thing to say. Repenhardt scolded in a weak voice.
“I didn’t say anything in particular… … .”
All he did to Cilan was show his sturdy back. Well, if you think about it, you could say he was seducing me.
“profit! I will show you the power of my love!”
Feeling nervous, Christine got down and attempted to slash one after another. Reppenhardt slumped his shoulders as he continued to step back and avoid attacks with the spell of wind walking.
“No, what is the power of love?”
“I pity you for not knowing the power of love!”
“… … “Shut up and let’s continue the duel.”
In the end, the duel ended with Reppenhardt’s energy bolt hitting Christine’s abdomen exactly. His energy bolt, whose power was carefully adjusted, precisely paralyzed her body. Christine dropped her sword and with some effort raised her head.
“Ugh! “Well, it’s my defeat.”
No matter how much she lived in her own world, she didn’t seem to be at the level of denying a clearly defined victory or defeat. Well, no matter what, it is a knight in name and character.
Reppenhardt stuttered, scratching his cheek.
“Hmm, the duel is my victory. So now will you give up Silan?”
Christine looked like the sky had fallen. Even if I was excommunicated from the Sayre Church, I didn’t think I would despair that much.
Reppenhardt glanced away. To be honest, his conscience was very painful because his ignorance had contributed greatly to Christine becoming like that.
When I turned my head, I saw Silan with a look on his face as if he was seeing the collapsed sky restored. Looking at that expression, her painful conscience was completely healed.
“Yes, I guess I have no choice but to step down now…” … .”
Christine looked at Cilan with a pitiful gaze.
“Cilan, I don’t have enough strength right now to rescue you from that evil enemy.”
“Did I even arrest him?”
Reppenhardt shouted in exasperation, but of course Christine did not listen. She was so pitiful that she cried.
“Ah, to think of your delicate body being crushed by such a ruthless man… … Hehehehehe!”
Reppenhardt and Silan were scared and screamed at the same time.
“hey! “Don’t say strange things!”
“okay! That doesn’t happen! Me and Mr. Leffen share a spiritual love! Right, Mr. Leffen?”
“I don’t want to share anything with you, but… … .”
“Oh, are you going to turn it over at the last minute? Guess what!”
“Yes, that’s right, our delicate Cilan… … Sobbing.”
“Don’t cry, smile! Now, smile!”
“… … .”
However, the soldiers were already giving Silan a look telling him to cheer up, saying that this was likely to happen. I have no idea how to fix this.
“I will definitely come back! And I will definitely save you, Cilan! Hehehehehehe!”
Christine turned away, shedding tears, and started running away from the mansion. If you look at her from behind, you can see that she was indeed a delicate young woman heartbroken by her betrayed love. Of course, the problem is that her perspective seems quite distorted.
Wow… … .
The wind blew.
Christine disappeared just as suddenly as she had appeared.
Reppenhardt looked back at Cilan and asked in a weak voice.
“you… … “What do you want to do now?”
Silan answered happily. Now Cilan felt as if he had reached heaven just by the fact that Christine had left.
“Well, won’t something work out?”
☆ ☆ ☆
It didn’t work out anyhow.
The world was not easy enough for Silan’s hope to be valid.
“Oh, you mean something like that happened?”
“Lord Leppenhardt and the young saint… … .”
“They may have some problems, but they really get along well!”
“They are people who know the arts, hehehe.”
The nobles of Prince Yubel’s army talked about this sudden ‘scandal’ whenever they had time. It was the same with the soldiers. These people were anxious because there was already a war going on. In order to forget the horrors of war, they talked about trivia and pretended it was fun. But how amazing is it that such an interesting story has arisen? Everyone was excited and whispering.
Moreover, this incident also had a significant positive effect.
“Oh, that’s what the Savior likes!”
“That’s right, Sir Cardamite. “Have we been like that from the beginning?”
