Chapter 16 The Dandelion and the Maiden's Sword (Part 2)
If you will lose, you will definitely lose - this is what Ulysses told himself. He had never thought of any possibility of victory. Although it was only a few seconds, he was definitely not an opponent who could fight Lasha head-on and let her take action seriously.
Therefore, the result of this battle was decided from the beginning. All he had to do was to be defeated naturally and then find ways to ease the relationship with An.
It must be very painful... Looking at the girl in red who seriously raised the wooden sword in her hand, Ulysses had a premonition.
Concentrate, then hit directly, An stared at the sword in his hand meticulously. Although this princess from the Dragon Kingdom had forgotten many things, she had long since been engraved with instinct in her body but would never forget the combat skills she had already engraved into her body.
Agunis used swordsmanship, which was the sword technique she was good at. With the sword in her hand, the essence of this swordsmanship naturally came to her mind. Although she didn't even remember the name of this swordsmanship, she did not forget every move and every attack.
It has been passed down for countless eras and has been continuously studied since the Dragon War. The strengthened military swordsmanship of the Dragon Kingdom is a powerful swordsman recognized by the mainland. Compared with the dragon spear technique that requires powerful weapons assistance and extremely high physical talent, this military swordsmanship is more basic and easier to be mastered by ordinary people. In countless wars, it has forged legends of heroes one after another.
This is also the entry-level sword skill of the Aguni royal family. Before they were qualified to use the dragon spear, the princesses of the Dragon Kingdom also used this sword skill to train their body and mind day after day.
Even though she forgot the past, when she raised the sword, she seemed to have found her past self, the proud and never bowed her head.
On the contrary, Ulysses felt more pressure than before. Although he was a layman in swordsmanship, this did not mean that he could not see An's strength. After accompanying Lasha and Yuliya for a long time, he naturally figured out some things related to swordsmanship.
Now An raised his sword posture and the balance he showed in his body, it was obvious that it was easy to kill him in seconds.
Defense! Perhaps Ulysses had a little idea of trying it out before An raised his sword, but now, he only needs to consider how to take An's first sword.
As for what happened after the First Sword, he didn't have to think about it, he must have suffered a crushing defeat.
Unlike An slowly lifting the sword style that was almost flat to his shoulders, Ulysses posed a purely defensive sword style, holding the sword tightly with both hands, then shifting to the front of his chest, and his body lowered slightly to balance the center, looking like a horizontal iron lock.
This is the guard posture recorded in the Book of Sword Saint, a move used to perform complete defense. Ulysses, who had never learned any swordsmanship at all, thought of this move without any helplessness. The reason is that from the Book of Sword Saint Rasha showed him yesterday, it is best to remember this move.
Of course, it would be too difficult for him, a child to understand what the book said about body and earth echoed, and the rhythm of the sword was as stable as a mountain.
In other words, this is the only way he can use it.
"Very good." If An was a little hesitant at the beginning, then after seeing Ulysses's guarding posture, she completely gave up the idea of despising the enemy.
Although it looks a bit strange, she can feel the extraordinary sense of balance revealed by the sword style used by her opponent. It seems to connect her entire body to the earth, giving people an extremely heavy oppressive courage.
There is no doubt that it is a very clever sword technique. It only uses simple postures to show the heaviness of the earth, which is an area that she has not yet reached.
However, she didn't need to learn such a sword. What was burning in her blood was the ever-moving hot flame, the kind of fighting fire that didn't even consider defense and burned everything with absolute power.
No matter whether the sword or gun in her hand, the flames in her blood would never stop burning.
It was telling her "attack!"
Holding a sword in his right hand, his feet spread out one after another, An's eyes were like the burning sunset, extremely hot.
That was the desire for battle, that was the burning of her will.
Unconsciously, the temperature around her body began to rise, which was a proof that the uncontrollable force naturally overflowed from her body, and a sign that her bloodline abilities began to awaken.
However, these are irrelevant to An now. At this moment, there is only one thing she needs to do, that is - victory!
"Swish!" This is the sound of air burning. On the wooden sword she used, there were a few more gray and black scorch marks, just like traces left on the big tree after thunder and fire.
"Hu-ha-hu-ha!" Ulysses took a deep breath. This was the way he found to adjust the pressure from the collection of the elders of Mira Village. However, this method of trying every time seemed to have lost its effect in this battle. Faced with the huge pressure brought by An, he even had a little difficulty standing.
It was too naive. He really thought of the matter of duel with others too simply. In the past, seeing Lasha easily defeating the others in the village who challenged him, he thought that this was just that. But only when he really stood in front of his opponent, he knew how much pressure this kind of thing brought to himself.
The red-haired girl opposite had turned into a ball of flame in his eyes, a ball of burning hot flames. He was unstoppable to agree to this duel and was undoubtedly about to be burned to ashes by the flames.
"Start!" An did not prepare much time for Ulysses. Before he finished speaking, the wooden sword with a scorching breath had turned into a phantom that could hardly be seen clearly, and he slashed towards Ulysses who was in a guardian posture.
The hands, eyes, heart, and footwork are all perfect. Even the teacher who teaches the Dragon Kingdom Princess Agunis's military swordsmanship here will definitely not find any fault.
With the greatest strength, the fastest speed and the simplest moves, launching a fatal attack on the enemy's vital points is the essence of Agunis' military swordsmanship in the Dragon Kingdom. And An's actions at this moment are showing the essence of this swordsmanship to the fullest.
When the sword is horizontal, you are the king of the mountains. When the foot of the earth is horizontal, you are the lord of the earth. When the heart and the sword are in harmony, you will never defeat all battles. Ulysses desperately recalls the records of the guard posture in the Book of Sword Saint, and then the sword faces the sword of fire with full sense of invasion.
