Cairo First Sword (2)

empty royal palace.

Daniel Cairo waited for something with an anxious look, like a man in a Royal Knight's attire.

squeaky.

The door opened.

eyes were focused.

The knight, who entered the room, said what he had seen and heard after paying his respects to the king.

"It was an overwhelming win. After defeating Bruno in the first turn, he defeated even Oscar in less than 30 minutes. King's Majesty. Roman Dmitry defeated all rankers from 9th to 2nd in just one day. Now there is no reason to stop him from challenging for the top spot."

It was a sad voice.

just the result.

I knew what it meant.

The people of Cairo would simply cheer for the historic move, but Daniel Cairo couldn't help but laugh.

" In the end, did that happen?"

His voice trembled.

right in front.

He looked down at the man who was looking at him.

The man, with his gray hair neatly turned over, boasted a fairly strong physique, unlike his early 60s appearance.

A pattern symbolizing the Royal Knight engraved on the chest.

The sun shining from above proved that he was the best swordsman among the Royal Knights.

"Count Nicholas."

"Say it."

"Is there any way to avoid the confrontation with Roman Dmitry? I have no doubt that you are Cairo's greatest sword, but I can only think of one possibility. Recently, the movements of the aristocrats, including the Marquis Benedict, are unusual. If Cairo's best sword ever collapses in the same situation as it is now... My humble position will be reduced to prey for the aristocrats."

past years.

Count Nicholas became a supporter of the royal faction.

For the sole reason that he swore allegiance to the king, the aristocracy did not dare to revolt.

That is why his presence was absolute.

In the past, Oscar had challenged for 1st place, but no one took his place after an overwhelming defeat after not holding out for even a minute.

if.

If he gets down on his knees.

It meant the collapse of power.

The fact that the absolute existence had collapsed was sure to explode the desire that had barely been suppressed.

Count Nicholas said.

"I am well aware of what your Majesty the King is worried about. Therefore, even more challenges cannot be avoided. The aristocrats of the Marquis Benedict did not revolt because of a lack of power. They hate to lose even the slightest bit of a tight system of power, and they have the power to make decisions at any time. If I turn down Roman Dmitry's challenge. I may be able to keep the title of Cairo's best sword, but from then on, the Marquis Benedict will not consider my existence as a threat.

four factions.

The narrow system of power was beneficial to the royal family.

The situation after the rebellion must also be considered, so the Marquis Benedict did not revolt forcibly.

After all, Count Nicholas is alone.

It is possible to take him down, but the weight of the balance is maintained, knowing how much blood will be shed in the process.

was an outsider.

From the moment Roman Dmitry defeated Oscar.

Count Nicholas had no choice.

"The absolute who ignores the challenges of the challengers has no meaning in existence. Trust me. After defeating Roman Dmitry, I will prove once again why I am called Cairo's greatest sword.

a strong contender

so that.

It was even more meaningful.

Count Nicholas rose from his seat and showed the appearance of a giant.

"Then, I will go."

* * *

Let's leave the palace.

A familiar voice caught my ankle.

" Are you really okay? Win or lose, the hyenas of Cairo will not stand still if they get hurt."

It was bentner.

past.

A person who sought Roman Dmitry on behalf of the king.

He looked at Count Nicholas with worried eyes.

"More than sixty years have passed since I followed the Cairo royal family. It doesn't matter if I'm okay or not. It must be done, and I will do it as always."

Count Nicholas.

he looked out the window

In the dazzling sunlight, memories of the past came to mind.

"Nicholas. Please don't ask my son.

former king.

Daniel Cairo's father met Count Nicholas a few days before his death.

He was truly a weak human.

Count Nicholas lived for the Cairo royal family from the moment he was born, and the king was always loyal.

The torn of Cairo's power system was entirely the responsibility of the former king.

If he hadn't neglected the seeds of rebellion in the first place, the Cairo royal family might have maintained great power.

Even so.

I didn't want to blame the king.

Weakness in the royal family symbolized incompetence, but the king was a very good person as a human being.

Watching Nicholas despairing of his rigorous training every day.

The king secretly offered a cure.

They took him away and made jokes, and when we ate delicious things, they invited people to eat together.

It was a good time.

The ignorant child became the sword representing Cairo, and the king, who was like the shining sun, collapsed in the meanness of power.

There was no way to protect him.

The best thing Count Nicholas could do was to eliminate the real threat, and that's why he worked hard to get stronger.

finally.

The king is dead.

People call Count Nicholas the greatest sword of Cairo, but there is no way to stop the invisible male and female.

eating.

laughter came out.

Facing the sunlight outside the window, the face of the former king kept coming to mind.

'Everyone said I was stupid when I said I would follow His Majesty King Daniel.'

The former king dies.

Count Nicholas faced many temptations.

If he had grabbed one of them, he would have lived a completely different life, but he never regretted that choice.

"Bentner."

" Yes.

"Roman Dmitry, what kind of man is he?"

turned the topic

There was no time to sleep in the memories.

Reality has arrived, and now it's time to focus on the reality in front of you.

Bendtner thought for a moment.

I had only one conversation with Roman Dmitry, but the memory of that time remained so vivid.

"Actually, I can't say with certainty what Roman Dmitry is like. But from a time yet to be recognized, Roman Dmitry was confident in the path he was going to take. He was born with the qualities of a predator, and he would never have made the extreme choice of a public ranked match if he hadn't had the confidence to win. From 99th to 1st. Everyone said he was reckless, but in the end he is sure to prove himself as he appeared before Count Nicholas as a challenger."

that also.

Believed in Count Nicholas.

However, he wasn't sure he would win this time.

"So please be careful. If you fall, the Cairo royal family is over."

next day.

The day was bright.

The capital of Cairo.

Thousands of people flocked to Kairos.

The people who filled the road opened it up like waves splitting with each move.

bum bum.

Roman Dmitry.

he took a step

While holding a sword, he calmly accepted people's gaze.

stand tall.

huge mansion.

Arrived at the destination.

As he entered through the already wide open door, he saw the people around him and the man waiting for him in the center.

The existence that the Cairo Kingdom calls the First Sword (第一劍).

Count Nicholas looked at Roman Dmitry who appeared in front of him, and opened his mouth.

"Roman Dmitry. I have faced many challengers, but none have been as arrogant and daring as you."

It was pure admiration.

From 99th to 1st.

Roman Dmitry came up from the bottom.

People's doubts turned to astonishment, and now they showed the expectation that something really might happen.

"I was only in my mid-20s. In a nutshell, you are gifted with the qualities that will make you famous on the continent beyond the Kingdom of Cairo. But not now. I, Richard Nicholas, will exist as Cairo's greatest sword until the moment I find rest.

Shh.

drew his sword

The atmosphere descended heavily.

The two haven't done anything yet, and people have no choice but to keep their mouths shut in the suffocating tension.

"Come. I will show you the wall of reality."

That moment.

palak.

Willas gave the signal.

At the same time.

Quiet rumble rumble.

Roman Dmitry rushed towards Count Nicholas.

* * *

Quang!

Quiet rumble.

The fight was fierce from the start.

Roman tried to attack immediately as if he would not hold on for long, and unlike his previous opponents, Count Nicholas countered Roman's attack head-on.

Aura exploded.

Every time the sword and the sword collided, the earth and the sky shook, but none of Roman Dmitry and Count Nicholas retreated.

It was the number that defeated the 10th ranked Jeron.

When the space-slicing sword tried to cut off his forearm, Count Nicholas rushed forward and struck the sword upward.

Kaang!

At the same time.

attempted a counterattack.

Roman recovered his sword and blocked the opponent's attack, and this time he chose the method of defeating the third in the rankings.

A chained attack that spreads out by striking forward in the same way.

Count Nicholas distorted his expression slightly as he did not allow his opponent to breathe, and attacked his head and then his arms, his arms then his torso and his legs.

The third place in the ranking could not withstand the second attack that passed through the arm.

Although it was that fast and menacing, the sword of Count Nicholas calmly thwarted all the attacks.

Kaang-

Kaka Kaka Kaka!

It was a huge ballroom.

It was difficult for ordinary people to follow with their eyes, and they had no choice but to back down in the wave of power spreading around them.

4 attacks.

4 defenses.

The presence of Count Nicholas inflated.

so far.

Roman's confrontation was overwhelming.

No one was able to properly block an attack, and he suffered a one-sided defeat to the extent that his reputation as a ranker was tarnished.

So people were skeptical.

It is clear that Count Nicholas is Cairo's greatest sword, but in fact, he may not be as strong as the others.

In particular, watching the second-ranked Oscar collapse helplessly, people began to doubt their memories.

But.

The memory is not wrong.

Count Nicholas' skills were truly unparalleled.

Unlike Cairo's rankers who couldn't stand the attack five times, he had already exchanged more than 20 battles.

That was then.

gap between attack and attack.

Count Nicholas' eyes changed.

A powerful aura vortex emerged from the sword, slashing and slashing the opponent as if exploding.

number of spleens.

It was a threatening attack.

This time, it was meant to give Roman Dmitry a shot.

But.

Quang.

Curl rumble rumble.

Roman Dmitry.

He blocked the attack as if nothing happened.

It wasn't the movement he expected, but it was the way he saw it and reacted.

????????

Count Nicholas is pushed back.

he grinned.

"He's a really fun guy."

From start to finish.

Roman Dmitry did not show the attitude of a challenger for a moment.

As if he were Cairo's best sword, he pushed forward without retreating at all.

It was fun.

It was definitely different.

Roman Dmitry was not at all afraid of himself.

'If you make a mistake, you will be defeated.'

It is an unacceptable reality.

good.

straightened the sword.

Mana that boils from within.

Cairo's best sword.

His attack had just begun.
