Chapter 314 Masterpiece (5)
It felt familiar.
Kevin’s gaze at him brought Chris back to memories from the past.
“It was the same then as it is now. You always looked at me as a competitor, unlike everyone else.”
Confrontation with Kevin.
It wasn’t the first time.
Even when he swore allegiance to Roman Dmitri in the beginning, he was dissatisfied with the situation in which he was not taught much, unlike his heroic determination.
So I asked.
When asked what he could learn just by watching, Roman Dmitri embarrassingly suggested a confrontation with Kevin.
at that time.
Kevin got beaten up a mess.
As he was bleeding, he looked at Chris and said,
“Do it until the end.”
got cocky
I didn’t know the subject.
It was only later that I realized that Roman Dmitri had helped me through the transmission, but I couldn’t forget Kevin’s gaze as if he was really trying to defeat me.
In any case, the order was perfectly organized by the events of the day.
Kevin faithfully followed his orders and never once had an incident occurred.
But sometimes, when I met the eyes looking at myself, I felt the same way as back then.
strong desire.
It was a complicated feeling.
Whether it’s envy, inferiority, or the desire to win.
Whatever the reason, Kevin saw Chris’s existence as something he had to overcome someday.
was different from the others.
In the absence of Roman Dmitri, Chris oversees the training, so most people thought that Chris was an unapproachable existence.
It was the same with Kevin training.
Even after swinging the sword according to Chris’ command, he showed strong desire for Chris in the place where the rank was highlighted.
Chris is.
didn’t know the truth
I get it.
The way you look at yourself, your attitude, and so on.
Kevin openly expressed his feelings, but Chris never accepted them.
“I knew from the beginning what you thought of me. But do you know why you didn’t respond? because it was like Even if a child blushes and rushes at you, adults are conscious of the child’s presence and do not respond. It’s something like that. To me, the existence of Kevin is the swordsman who is called Dmitri’s demon. Just like the first time I met you, I’m just a child who isn’t intimidating in the slightest.”
Shuk.
got a sword
Kevin’s expression distorted in a situation where he blatantly showed First No-Name.
“Kevin. I have a long way to go. It means that my aspirations are not small enough to be caught up by the likes of you.”
Fire-
Aura rose.
It was sincere.
He intended to prove his position to those who crossed the ranks.
“So do your best from now on. I will prove with my skills that then and now are no different.”
widely.
Roman Dmitry taking a step back.
that was the signal
Like you don’t need an answer.
tadak.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Kevin quickly dug into the space.
* * *
It was fast.
Chris reached out his sword at the sight of Kevin charging like a swift animal.
‘Serious battle.’
Flash.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
I had no intention of doing it moderately.
It seemed as if Kevin’s face was blown away by an attack that penetrated space for an instant.
however.
Pat –
avoided.
As if he had expected it, he let go of the attack with a narrow gap, and Kevin exploded his aura and burrowed into his arms.
Just avoiding a flash battle was a great achievement.
When we first met, Kevin showed an inability to respond even if he knew the correct answer, but the current Kevin has become incomparably stronger.
but.
Chris has also improved.
Chris’s sword bent strangely and bit Kevin’s neck like a snake.
squeak.
The secret war and Jonathan’s secret skill.
It was a deflecting technique.
The moment he thought it worked this time, Kevin’s eyes turned red and he suddenly turned around.
It was an appalling scene.
As I rotated my body at the same speed as the attack, the sword that had bitten the back of my neck passed through the afterimage.
didn’t even touch It was a perfect evasion, and as soon as the back foot touched the ground, a huge explosion occurred.
Kwahang-
qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Mana Surge.
It was a dash.
Kevin, who came right in front of his nose, immediately pushed him as if he would not give him a chance.
Caang –
Kakakakakan!
A violent clash ensued.
When the attack aimed at the head was blocked, it dug into the side and attacked the side, and Chris quickly retrieved the sword and blocked the attack.
At the same time, he rather cut off Kevin’s head.
Kevin leaned back and let the attack flow, then bouncing his body like a spring, this time aiming at Chris’s heart.
Caang!
It was a battle of one step forward.
They pushed each other recklessly as if they were going to bite each other.
hook.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Chris’s aura split the space.
It was accompanied by an eerie sound that seemed like his body would be torn apart just by brushing against it, but Kevin had no hesitation in jumping into the space shimmering with his aura.
crashed and crashed again.
Since both use aura based on martial arts, in the end, Chris, who uses a stronger aura, had an advantage in terms of power.
but.
endured the pain
Kevin smiled, covered in blood.
Clearly,
his eyes flashed.
This time, he dodged Chris’ attack and sprayed an aura towards Chris’ face.
Caan.
As expected.
Chris’ response was quick.
After blocking the attack, Kevin dug into the opponent’s blind spot and attacked the opponent’s gap in a chain.
Aim for the head, then the lower body, then the back, then the back, then the stomach.
It burrowed into the opponent’s surroundings swiftly like a beast, displaying its sharp teeth to catch the slightest gap.
It was fast and intimidating.
Chris’ counterattack took Kevin’s life, but somehow Kevin knew and reacted to Chris’ attack.
It was then.
Flash.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
another flash.
Kevin quickly backed away.
This time, I didn’t have the confidence to withstand Chris’ attack right in front of me.
“Admit it. You are definitely different from before.”
Through the aura.
Chris stepped forward.
He had a fierce face and seemed genuinely angry.
“But that is all.”
yet.
Chris didn’t show his full potential.
* * *
The skin was prickly.
In this moment facing Chris, Kevin’s instincts were constantly warning him of what a dangerous foe he was facing.
however.
couldn’t get away
For this day, Kevin worked hard.
‘I know more about Chris than Chris himself.’
Meantime.
I constantly observed to knock down Chris.
We proceeded with virtual sparring while figuring out what kind of swordsman Chris uses and whether he has any habits when using swordsmanship.
Thanks to that, I was able to avoid the first attack.
Although flash war is an attack that is impossible to see and react to, he twisted his body after grasping the movement of muscles and the unique posture of flash war.
It was a brief difference.
If it hadn’t been trained beforehand, the first attack might have blown its head off.
It was similar after that.
Based on the information he grasped in advance, he pushed Chris hard.
Kwak.
I grabbed my sword.
I saw Chris walking.
The red-tinged eyes at the reaction that were still full of composure drove Kevin into madness.
“Don’t be cocky, you bastard.”
Taat.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
kicked the ground
In an instant, he dug into the space and cut Chris’s head.
Kaang-
The attack is blocked.
Chris immediately counterattacked, and the muscle movements he showed clearly conveyed his intent.
‘Right arm.’
It was an embarrassing sensation.
Words are muscle movements, but by a combination of really subtle signals, Kevin can sense what his opponent is trying to do.
On top of that, he even has a sensitive sense unique to Ghost Magic.
Kevin was about to try the next attack while letting go of his opponent’s attack, but his eyes widened at the burning pain in his right arm.
Pat –
blood splattered.
Even though I was clearly aware of it, the black blade passed lightly across Chris’ right arm.
‘shoulder.’
This time it was the shoulder.
Chris, who held his sword high, attempted a chain attack by slashing it down.
however.
It was the same this time too.
He clearly recognized his intentions and reacted, but before he knew it, his expression distorted as the sword slashed his shoulder.
squeak.
Pain arose.
It was fast.
The reaction that seemed like he hadn’t done his best yet wasn’t bravado, and Chris showed overwhelming speed that Kevin couldn’t react.
A thrill arose. Dmitri’s second son.
Chris was the one who rose to the position with his skills and proved why he was called the Flash of Dmitri right in front of his eyes.
It was strong.
so it was worth it
He had to defeat Chris to prove himself as the owner of First No-Name.
“Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.”
The eyes were stained red.
He ran like crazy with a face glistening with madness.
Caang!
Kaka kaka kaka kakang!
crashed violently
There was no retreat from each other, and despite Chris’ quick counterattack, Kevin ran tenaciously with a movement that was beyond human limits.
At first, the attack did not hit.
Chris reacted first and let it go, but as time went on, it seemed as if Kevin’s attack was about to reach.
Certainly-
qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
passed right in front of my eyes.
Kevin cornered Chris and turned his face to the side to let the incoming attack slip away.
It was bold.
In a situation where his face could have been pierced, Kevin chose to run forward rather than retreat.
Dmitry’s demon.
It was a monster.
The eyes shining with madness finally drove the opponent into a corner.
‘The first half of the Heavenly Demon’s Sword.’
Kwalung.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
power exploded.
It was real from now on.
As soon as he took a step forward, Chris’ expression turned cold.
“It is over.”
Chris’ area.
entered the street
Even before Kevin’s attack was properly attempted.
The world flashed.
‘One island.’
pod.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I didn’t see it properly.
Kevin’s vision collapsed as the burning pain in his chest burned.
* * *
I looked down at Kevin.
I got the victory I wanted, but Chris’ expression wasn’t so good.
‘To think that a slum boy could be this strong.’
recent confrontation.
I sincerely admired it.
Kevin anticipated his response and rushed without a chance to catch his breath, and if he had been his old self, he could not guarantee victory.
So I couldn’t laugh. Kevin and himself have different starting points.
It was impossible for him, who was a prosecutor from the beginning, to be overtaken by Kevin, who was just a slum boy.
I was annoyed.
The moment we first met.
Even with Roman Dmitri’s help, the being who was unilaterally defeated has grown to the point of threatening himself.
In fact, I was not unaware of Kevin’s growth.
Watching Kevin as if people were calling him Dmitri’s demon, he knew that he had changed from before.
But I couldn’t accept it.
He couldn’t admit that the gap between Kevin and himself was closing, as if Kevin was showing inferiority towards him.
chuck.
He pointed his sword.
It was intended to decide the game.
however.
Kevin, whose blood was dripping from his chest, showed tears as the sword pointed at his neck.
“… Kwuuuuuuuuuuuu.”
gritted it
Although he was forced to swallow his tears, Kevin, who was filled with tears, showed foolish stubbornness that he could not accept the outcome of the confrontation.
I thought I would win. No, I thought I wanted to win.
but was defeated
In the end, Dmitri’s demon appeared like a child on the wall he couldn’t overcome.
Only then did I know
That Kevin is still young.
Suppressing his tears as if he didn’t want to show his embarrassing side, he looked up at Chris and said.
“… I lost.”
finished.
It was Chris’ victory.
Chris felt devastated when he should have been happy.
An attitude that does not take defeat for granted, even against oneself.
I knew it instinctively.
The moment you settle for the present, the day may come when you kneel down against that pure aspiration.
no more
Kevin didn’t look like a ghetto boy.
