Ch. 164 Tale of a Certain Brave Man 7 (side story)
Adofu swings his sword while rapidly reducing the distance between us.
I could easily chop off your wrist and behead you, but I have no intention to end it so easily.
Luckily, it seems that the plague dragon is still not able to move.
I’ll take my time to carefully and slowly torment you to my liking.
Since Adofu is carefully watching me with his eyes, he was able to read my sword’s movements and dodge.
After four consecutive close range exchanges, Adofu grew impatient and tried to attack with a diagonal slash while jumping back to evade.
What’s this now? It doesn’t even feel like I’m fighting.
The ability of Haranae’s strongest soldier is too poor.
“Are you acting stupid? Aren’t you lacking a little discipline and training?”
Although Adofu would often get ridiculed in prison, I’ve yet to see this kind of reaction.
Even after all that, is not all that he’s doing right now a bit disappointing?
Even after all that provocation, it’s sad that this is all he could muster.
I wanted to torment you little by little, but I must refrain from doing so as I must still deal with that dragon.
I don’t have much time to play. Really, I’m busy.
Now to further unsettle Adofu, it’s better to approach from a different perspective.
“How is it? To know that you were the reason for your brother and fiancée’s death, do you like the feeling of witnessing those close to you being executed? Come on, come on, if you don’t hurry up it will become a serious matter.”
“Such a twisted heretic!”
Oh, he’s mad, he’s mad.
I knew it, such a visually unsatisfying response is not worth it.
For this, I have everything well prepared. It will not amuse me if you fight against this.
Adofu lets his emotion take over and raises his sword.
He’s still moving as usual, what should I do about this?
Maa, I understand the feeling of thoroughly evading a strike swung with full strength.
Well, I do feel that the strength behind his swings have become somewhat better as I was evading.
It was expected for him to ‘at least’ achieve this much.
If only Adofu could look at our statuses there will not be such a boring battle, he would have showed his neck for me.
My, what a pity.
I run beside Adofu.
When the sword swung down towards me, it missed and created a gust of sand on the ground.
“Gu……”
Adofu frowned, covering his ear with his right hand.
“There have certainly been many words of praise about you before, was it ‘There is no way to reach his strength, you will only receive a counterattack’ such as I have now, am I right?”
Because I was smiling mockingly, I was glared at by Adofu.
“Right, this is not needed, so I’m returning this.”
When I ran beside him just now, I slashed one ear off using the edge of the sword.
I swing the sword lightly, Adofu’s ear is lightly tossed into the air.
Using the fuller, I hit Adofu’s ear. (T/N: fuller – the flat side of a sword)
Planning to return it by hitting it over, Adofu’s ear is smashed into pieces of meat and blood is sent flying everywhere.
“Oops, my apologies.”
However, it truly is like the former Knight Chief.
He was able to suppress the blood loss somewhat by pressing against it and immediately corrects himself to wield the sword with both hands again.
“From now onwards, I will devote myself.”
I kick the ground, to launch towards Adofu.
From the shaken expression of
Adofu, he did not expect I would move this early.
“Come on, come on!”
From the right and left, I swing my arm to attack from both sides.
“Isn’t it too late to guard the attack now? Ah, isn’t it useless, shouldn’t you just sit down?”
Adofu is barely keeping up with me by adjusting my speed accordingly.
Of course, now Adofu does not have the luxury to counter attack, exhausting himself by dealing with attacks one by one.
Without giving him the time to recover his posture, his stance gradually collapses.
Finally, Adofu loses his posture and shows a big gap in his stance.
Before he swings down with his sword, I send him flying with a kick in the stomach.
“Gufuu!?”
Adofu’s huge body is sent flying, cras.h.i.+ng with his back on the ground.
Even so, the sword did not leave his hand, he is reputed to be strong willed, it’s painful and unsightly.
Adofu stands up immediately and readies his sword towards me.
Indeed, he has become pitiful and I think I should face him as an opponent without a sword.
