Chapter 77: (1)

Chapter 77: (1)

Hoil, the leader of the Carsia Clans Shadow Knights, was perplexed after Barvans return without any communication in ten days.

More precisely, it wasnt because of Barvan but because of Kaiyan, he brought along.

This guy seems suspicious.

Kaiyan, I will meet with my father for a moment, so please take a rest.

Understood.

Hoil knew that Barvan was a suspicious person, but seeing him act so familiar was unexpected.

What could have happened to the young master in those ten days? Moreover, the aura he felt from the person named Kaiyan was very ambiguous.

He seemed like a knight who had learned aura, but also not. However, it was impolite to ask directly, given the circumstances and the young masters warning not to be rude.

Have someone guide Kaiyan to a resting place. Hes an important guest, so dont be discourteous.

An opportunity presented itself.

Barvan, I will personally guide him to the guest room!

Hmm? Are you personally doing that? Even without

No! Ill do it myself!

It was a chance to learn more about this Kaiyan and, given the uneasy feeling he gave Hoil, he couldnt just leave him alone in the mansion. Ignoring Barvans puzzled expression, Hoil approached Kaiyan.

Follow me. I will guide you to the guest room.

Yes? Ah Alright.

As expected.

Even though he had just spoken firmly to him a moment ago, there was no reaction from Kaiyan. This meant Kaiyan was at least a knight who had learned aura.

Does the young master know that fact?

Hoil looked at Kaiyan with a suspicious glance. Kaiyan, meeting his gaze, spoke.

Can you guide me?

Ahem Come with me.

Hoil led Kaiyan to the room assigned to guests when nobles visited the Karsha Clan.

He had briefly considered whether he should guide Kaiyan to a different room since he wasnt a noble, but he brought him to the guest room because he didnt know the relationship between Barvan and Kaiyan yet.

Here we are.

Oh As expected of a nobles mansion, even the guest rooms are splendid.

This is the first training ground. Only high-ranking knights can use it. Remember that with honor.

The first training ground that Hoil brought Kaiyan to was a place only accessible to high-ranking knights or noble families. He had brought Kaiyan here instead of the second training ground to prevent onlookers.

It would be troublesome if Lord Barvan finds out that I fought this guy.

Now, draw your sword and come at me. Its a duel, so the first to yield three times lose.

With a self-assured expression, Hoil lowered his sword while flicking his left hand.

**** ****

This strange old man, Kaiyan thought.

From the moment Kaiyan first met Hoil, he had been eyeing him and now he was challenging him with irritation.

Kaiyan stared back at Hoil, who was provoking him with a relaxed expression, drew his sword, and aimed it at him.

Can I really attack first? Kaiyan asked.

Haha, of course, Hoil replied, Use Aura if necessary.

[Kaiyan, please teach him a lesson!]

It seemed like Kaiyan needed to educate Hoil, not just based on Riekas words, but also for his own comfort. He might be staying with the Carsia family for some time, and he couldnt keep feeling uncomfortable because of this person.

Lets start lightly, Kaiyan thought.

Thump!

Without using Aura, Kaiyan applied force to his right foot as if he were kicking, and he swiftly leaped into the air, leaving an afterimage, and with that speed, he swung his sword towards Hoils head.

What?! Hoil exclaimed.

Hoil, taken aback by the unexpectedly fast speed, hastily lifted his sword to block Kaiyans strike.

Can he block it? Kaiyan wondered.

Kwaaang!

Kkuack! Hoil grunted as he struggled to block the powerful strike.

Thunk, thunk!

While Hoils sword didnt break, it bent in various directions as if it had struck a massive boulder, and Hoil, who was holding the sword, flew about 10 meters through the air and tumbled on the ground.

What what in the world Hoil muttered.

Now, you have two chances left. Should I continue? Kaiyan asked.
