Chapter 414 (2/2)
For example, between civilians is not called duel, it is called fighting and mechanical struggle; The contradiction between slaves is called the performance of the Colosseum.
Christina's heroic behavior of choosing a duel for the family's reputation was indeed somewhat unexpected to Sean. If the person who initiated the duel against him at the moment was yeles' son or grandson, Sean was more acceptable, but it was actually yeles' granddaughter, and yeles himself was very opposed to the duel, which made Sean somewhat confused.
”You mean I'm a child!?” Christina's eyes almost burst into flames. ”Good! Now I want to add a personal insult to me! If you don't duel with me, I'll publicize it immediately. At that time, not to mention the whole lomine, even the whole kingdom will know what kind of man you are, viscount Fran. ”
Christina raised her head slightly, and her cold and arrogant momentum returned. Then she continued in a contemptuous tone: ”a coward who dare not respond to a woman's duel.”
”I don't think you are my opponent.” Sean took a serious look at Christina and said, ”there's a clear gap between you and me...”
”Are you afraid?” Without waiting for Sean to finish speaking, Christina interrupted Sean, ”don't worry, there is a fighting field in the manor, where the people of the Hastings family practice martial arts. All the weapons in it don't attack, or you'll die.”
Sean looked at Christina and nodded after a moment of silence: ”since you insist, I'll do what you want. What about the duel bet? ”
Christina said without hesitation, ”if you lose, you must apologize to me and my grandpa. You must give enough respect to my grandpa in the future!”
”What if you lose?” Sean asked back.
”Hum, how could I lose!” Christina sneered, ”if I lose, I will be your servant during your stay in lomine!”
”Tina!” Yeles finally couldn't help shouting.
”Don't worry, Grandpa. I'll be careful. I won't hurt Viscount Fran.” Christina said with a confident face.
After that, he ignored Sean and the Marquis of yeres, and walked towards the manor.
Sean smiled at the Marquis of yeles and said softly, ”Marquis, about visiting the manor, we will continue when I have finished the duel with your granddaughter.”
”This... This...” Marquis yeles, such a wise man, finally showed a bewildered expression, ”no, I'm worried about you, your excellency Fran, my granddaughter...”
”Marquis yeres, if you continue to say the following words, it will violate the fairness and impartiality of the duel.” Sean interrupted the Marquis of yeres. From this point, he can finally clearly judge that Christina's strength really can't be measured at a normal level. Otherwise, the Marquis of yeres wouldn't have such an expression that he was obviously worried about himself. Similarly, Christina wouldn't have such strong confidence in winning.
However, this judgment also made Sean confused, because he really couldn't understand why the Marquis of yeles would turn to him, which was completely unreasonable. After all, it was only the first time he met the Marquis, and no matter how he looked at the Marquis, regardless of his status or network advantages, he was better than him. However, from the communication just now, Sean did not feel the evil intention of the Marquis, which really made him feel a little confused.
But anyway, the duel with Christina is imperative now. Even if you have any questions, you can only wait for an answer later.
It has to be said that Qazi was not joking when he said that the Marquis of yeres could play the role of tour guide, because both Christina and yeres are really familiar with this manor. Under the guidance of Marquis yeres, Sean and others only spent more than ten minutes in front of a huge house covering an area of at least 500 or 600 square meters.
The house has only one floor, and the shape is not very luxurious. On the contrary, it should be very simple. But there was a faint sound like thunder in the shouting and drinking sound. It seemed that there were absolutely many people in the arena at the moment.
When Sean and others stepped into the arena, Christina was already ready. At the moment, she was standing on the left in an open space paved with things like earth and Japanese tatami, and she already had a long sword in her hand. After seeing Sean and others come in, she opened her mouth like a hostess and said, ”all weapons here don't open the front, and they can bear the fighting spirit of the golden strong. You don't need to worry at all.”
Sean nodded slightly, then picked up a long sword at will, but at this moment, his eyes had swept the whole arena.
