Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Chapter 183: Freetia Knights Training Match 1

The first match. The opponent was a Hawkman knight with wings growing out of his back. The knight brandished his weapon, a spear and announced himself.

"I am Airtis, captain of the first squad of the Freetia Cavalry Knights! Now, call out my opponent!"

I didn't expect a flying opponent, but I guess I've found his opponent.

I'll call out Ribina. The male knights were delighted. But Airtis seems to be dissatisfied.

"I didn't expect you to have a nightmare species as a companion. But such a small fish is not worth talking about"

"I'm not a small fish, am I? I'm strong against men, even though I look like this"

"Huh. If you want to replace her, now's the time"

Ooh. This guy seems pretty confident, but I wouldn't say that to Ribina.

"I'm not changing. Ribina, you don't need a weapon?"

"Of course not. I'll break his confidence"

And so the battle began.

"Let's go! Penetray!?"

As he was about to use his spear technique, Airtis caught sight of Ribina and fell to his knees in a state of fascination.

"I, I...do you show my loyalty princesss lustful dream! But I will not be defeated by this!"

He's trying his best, but his nose is bleeding, okay?

"Waa! That's amazing. Knight-sama! But. You're falling down"

Airtis' eyes widened and he collapsed. Poor guy...but his fall was full of joy.

"Match end! Winner, Ribina!"

"I did it! Big win! I've won the right to be on Takuto's lap!"

What's that? I didn't say anything, but apparently that's what the girls are talking about...well, I'll give you that as a reward.

On Airtis' side, his fellow Hawkman knights had gathered.

"Captain Airtis! Pull yourself together!"

"You always tell me to value your reports!"

"Please report what you saw! Captain"

Airtis speaks.

"Fresh...ripe...peaches..."

Airtis ran out of energy.

Captain~!!

It's a good knight group. On the other hand, Princess Sarah was disgusted.

"The worst"

"No, that was a bad opponent...and even so, it's so strong...I definitely want to fight"

"Right"

And then Princess Sarah pulled out her sword.

"Joke, isn't it a joke? Princess"

"That's right. It's a light joke"

"...After this exercise, gather everyone together. I'll teach you what it means to be a knight"

Ribina's battle had left a scar on the Freethia Knights in many ways.

The second match

From the Freethia Knights came a painfully handsome man who added a rose to his mouth. Let's be clear. He doesn't look strong at all.

"Huhuhu. I'm Robert, captain of the first squad of the Frontier Guard Knights! Im the most handsome man among the Freetia Knights and known as the beautiful sword Robert. Beautiful blue-haired young lady, let's play a match! I'll teach you the art of swordsmanship, hand in hand"

What are you picking up? This guy. I was going to beat him up, but there was no need.

"I'm fine, I'm learning from Takuto-san"

That was a quick rejection. The handsome guy froze. The knights around him were also holding back their laughter.

I'm sure...this guy was chosen for some reason.

"Y, You! How dare you refuse an invitation from me, a nobleman!"

So that means nobles are the best...I see. I could somewhat read the story.

I'm saying something, but I have to choose someone...but the other party has already been decided.

"Koihi, can you go?"

"Hya!? Yes! I'm ready!"

She's frozen in place...will she be okay?

"Good luck, Koihi"

"Ah...I, I'll do my best!"

Oh? Did the support of Wako ease the tension a little?

"Huh! Cerian Beast...well fine. I'm not afraid of a Cerian Beast that can't use blood awakening!"

"Pl...Please remember me!"

It seems that Robert's voice did not reach Koihi.

The second match, Robert versus Koihi. Begin!"

"Beautiful! Bonnaban!"

Koihi is still in the position of being in contact with Robert, who instantly closes the distance with a sword's rushing technique. (TL note: Bonnaban is a fencing technique used in One Piece by Brook against Ryuma in Thriller Bark)

"Ah!? Nu...Nukiuchi!"

Koihi, who was stiff and delayed in reaction, immediately closed her eyes and released a punch. The sound of hitting with a blunt instrument was heard at the venue.

"Ah...what?"

The first one to speak out was Koihi. Koihi took a step forward and used Nukiuchi against Robert, who narrowed the distance with Bonnaban.

As a result, the techniques were out of sync with each other and the Nukiuchi exploded in Robert's crotch, who was accelerated by Bonnaban. That is a fatal injury as a man.

As Koihi shifted fearfully to the side, Robert fell to his knees and collapsed. He was twitching, but eventually stopped moving.

"Winner, Koihi!"

"Eh? Eh? Eh? I won?"

It's so funny that she can't even comprehend the situation.

"Koihi! You were so cool!"

"Ah...I, I won!"

I can't help but smile when I see Wako and Koihi. On the other hand, Princess Sarah was angry on the Freetia side.

"Good grief...it's not slovenly to fall down with just one punch of Nukiuchi"

"It wasn't just a normal Nukiuchi, though..."

"It seems like he's been getting carried away lately, so I gave him a match to straighten him out, but instead of straightening him out, it turned out to be a fatal wound...it hurts me to watch"

"? What are you holding down?"

""Nothing. Please be the princess you are""

The two of them strongly desired to see Princess Sarah in her pure form.

"Then it's my turn"

"You look happy"

"I get to fight the person I want to. Of course I'm happy"

"You're a disciplined guy, by the way. You didn't have to go to the trouble of answering our request"

When Garou says so, Princess Sarah affirms.

"Perhaps it was necessary"

"Hmm? What do you mean? Princess"

"It's simple. Just as we wanted to fight them, they probably wanted to fight us"

"I see"

"I guess you're right, Princess. I'll be going now. Princess"

The practice match with the three strongest members of the Freethia Knights began.

--------------------------------

Author note:

I'll write about the level-up after the event.

It was a complete gag session, so I'll follow up a bit. Airtis is the greatest captain of the knight order that guards the skies of Freetia, so he's inherently pretty strong. The fact that his opponent was Ribina was a disaster.

Robert is a noble, so he's trained, but that's all he is. Even if this doesn't happen, he's such a small character that a normal Koihi would defeat him instantly.

Airtis will be active in Episode 4.
