Chapter 6 Joust Tournament 1 (2/2)

The remaining men all seemed furious, but they didn't charge towards him right away. Instead, they seemed to form a circle. Miley rolled her eyes at the scene.

At the seats.

Lyn mentally facepalmed.

What are they doing turning away from their opponent?

Sir Aubrey, a general from one of the neighboring countries looked towards her ashamed, and she chuckled. ”Do not mind it, it's an interesting strategy?”

She really didn't know what to say.

”I apologize, Queen Lyn, they are a fairly new bunch. They didn't know they'd be facing a child.”

She immediately sensed malice and mockery behind the man's tone and wanted to sigh out loud. But refrained from doing so.

”Oh? Have you not heard the rumors..”

”Rumors, Queen Lyn?” Aubrey repeated.

”Yes, in the mist kingdom there's someone known as the 'beautiful and dangerous assassin...'”

”You don't mean..”

Her lips curve to a smile, the audience seemed to be awed and Lyn looked up.

Like, Miley said she didn't move from her position, and Lyn watched as the girl lunged her lance forward when the remaining men charged towards her. With a single twirl, it scooped up all men and flung them back, but this did not make them fall out of their horse. Lyn watched as the men wanted to taunt her more but her assassin didn't give them a chance to speak and aimed the lance towards the stomach of two men, the ones approaching from behind Miley are knocked down by the other end of the girl's lance touching their foreheads. The three fell off their horse, and the girl didn't bother with her weapon for the remaining, a few punches and strong kicks, they easily fell down.

”It seems like, it's decided,” Lyn said.

The man seemed speechless but didn't say a word. Her gaze flickered toward the girl.

”Winner Madam Miley..”

That was it, huh, wasn't much. But her gaze met the Queen's who smiled at her warmly. She immediately averted her gaze, she's still mad. Why does she have to deal with this small fry? A real battlefield would have her dealing with better opponents.
