The fifth guest

Section 5 Guests

The two swords intersect.

Berel retreated steadily, while Robin advanced step by step, swinging a series of moves. Cut left, stabbed straight, chop right, then swept down, stab straight... Robin's movements are all simple and simple sword skills. No, not just simple, but complete training movements. This is the basic movement of every soldier during daily training (the kind of training for the doll). It can be said to be the basis of military swordsmanship.

However, from the perspective of pure swordsmanship, this is actually just a basic swordsmanship, which can only be said to be practical and far from being gorgeous. In fact, this swordsmanship is not of high standard when fighting alone - even if you are very skilled, it is common for you to be killed instantly if you really meet a master.

It is a bit surprising for generals like Belar to use this sword technique - usually, everyone thinks that a general's fighting skills are far superior to ordinary soldiers. However, Belar is indeed an exception. He is good at strategizing rather than charging on the front line of the battlefield.

Influenced by him, Robin's level was naturally not much higher.

However, the fighting skills are always comparable. At present, Robin is becoming more and more braver in the battle, and his sword moves are easy to handle. On the contrary, Beller was able to defend very firmly at the beginning, but slowly he started to support his left and right and could not hold on.

"Wait... Wait... Robin, let's stop here!" Beller shouted after enduring Robin's attack in a rather embarrassed manner.

Robin retracted his sword and retreated. The two of them were completely different at this time. Beller was sweating heavily and panting. Although Robin was sweating on his forehead, it was much better than Beller.

This is also normal - Robin is still very young, and Beller is already on the verge of "old age".

"Hu... Hu... I'm really old..." Berel said panting. "I used to fight ten on the battlefield..."

"General." Robin smiled and handed Beller a towel. "You are not old at all. Your sword is powerful and your movements are very agile..."

"Forget it, don't comfort me, I know." Berel sighed. "You can't accept your old age. Fortunately, there is no fight now - unless you go to Tulan."

"Isn't the war over?" Robin asked in confusion. In fact, the war between the Turan people and the elves had ended long ago - it was no secret. Berel also sent Tale to Turan to learn about the details of the entire war.

The result of this war is as expected by Beller. Under pressure from inside and outside, the Turan people did not choose to stick to it, but chose to attack. The famous commander of Turan led his army to the expedition with General Mede, who was famous for commanding cavalry, and fought against the invading elves on a small town in central Turan.

The battle took place at dawn. The elite cavalry of the Turan people launched an attack, while the elves held their spears and shields, facing the surging cavalry without fear. Maid led his army to charge six times, but in front of the rock-like spear formation of the elves, his offensive shattered like waves hitting the reefs. The elves' archers kept shooting countless arrows onto the enemy's heads. By the end of the battle, the corpses of the Turan people and the horses covered the entire battlefield, and more than 30,000 soldiers fell on the battlefield, including their commander Maid.

The elves immediately launched an attack on the Tulans' royal city. The Tulans, who had lost their main force, could not support the powerful offensive of the Elf Legion for too long. It was a bloody massacre. When the Elf Legion left, the entire royal city was submerged in the sea of ​​blood. All humans who had no time to escape were slaughtered, without exception.

Fortunately, the elves' war goal was to severely punish the Tulans, not others. So after capturing the royal city, they left, leaving behind a broken land and countless ruins. This war directly destroyed the powerful Tulans' spine. Maybe they had coveted other people's land before, but now it was the other's turn to covet their land. The Tulans were shouting for revenge - but even fools knew that it was just a shout and it was impossible to put it into practice. As the saying goes, a prodigal dog could only bark far away, which refers to this situation.

According to Beller, this is part of the vampire's cunning strategy - of course, at this point, Robin always felt that the General was a little too allergic.

"The war is over, and the Elf Legion has retreated." Berel smiled. "But the Human Legion is still there."

"General...you mean..."

"To be honest, if the Tulanes were smart, they would not be bluffing and calling for 'revenge'. But it doesn't matter, the time has not come. Well, the Tulanes are hurt this time, and they will never be able to recover in a short period of time. If you want to do it, you must first have a sufficient reason... and then, you must first test how much strength Tulanes still has."

While speaking, Beller had already wiped his sweat and walked to the chair beside him to rest.

This is a villa in Belar - as a great nobleman, his villa has a martial arts venue. In fact, the building level of this villa is quite considerable, but there are few servants inside. Robin knew that there were actually four servants in the villa responsible for the minimum care and cleaning - Belar got this villa a long time ago, but he had never lived here for a few days in the past.

The reason why Berel came here is very simple - that is, Rortiya is pregnant.

Just like most women in this world, Rotia's temper became very rough after pregnancy. For some reason, she refused to stay in the mansion in the city, but had to go outside to relax... Well, Berel had no choice but to obey orders. When His Majesty the King heard about this, he gave Berel a very considerate special request to take a break for a while.

Pregnant women can read books and take a walk, while men accompanying women have to find something for themselves every day. At least on the surface, Berel can do only two things in this villa: hunting or teaching Robin. It should be noted that the sword training just now did not fall into the scope of "teaching" - in fact, Berel had hardly taught Robin's sword skills much. This is not because Berel refused to guide Robin, but because his sword skills were indeed not high - that is, the level of a veteran or squad leader, he really felt guilty about his identity as a general. Berel also knew this very well.

While Berel was drinking water, the servant outside suddenly rushed over.

"Master, someone is looking for you," said the servant. "He said he is an old friend of you."

"Look for me?" It's no secret that Beller accompanied his wife, and no one should be so ignorant to disturb him. "What's his name?"

"He called himself...a very difficult name... by the way, he said that his name is Ashu Rufate."

"Ashu Rufate?" Beller looked at Robin in confusion. "Tell him to go... wait in the small living room, and I'll come soon."

A little while later, Beller changed his clothes. Although the servant had told him that the visitor was called Ashu Rufate, Beller was actually surprised when he saw the other party. Like many people, Beller always felt that it was impossible for Ashu Rufate to return from the Chaos Realm. Ashu Rufate's approach to going to the Chaos Realm was brave - but also stupid.

"Ah, Lord Earl..." Beller opened his arms and expressed his welcome with a warm move. "How can he have time to visit?"

Asu Rufate wore a travel suit - the type that looked ordinary but had a good texture. He didn't expect to meet such a warm welcome as Berel, so he was caught by Berel for a moment and took the initiative to speak.

"Ahhh... Wait, Lord Earl, you can see that you have a lot to say to me... Wait, I'll ask the servant to bring some suitable drinks." Belle turned his head and looked at Robin outside. "What's going on? Ash Rufate returned from the Chaos Realm?" During this period, Belle stayed in the villa, and Robin returned to his mansion from time to time and brought back the secret letters to him.

Robin made a gesture, indicating that he knew nothing. There was no news of Ash Rufate returning from the Chaos Realm - although such news was almost impossible to hide.

"As it really... hasn't it been made public..." Beller chuckled. Ashurufate secretly returned from the Chaos Realm, and did not stay in Eagle City, nor did he meet the former little queen, but came to visit him inexplicably... These elements were mixed together, and he knew that behind this matter was definitely not simple.

A few minutes later, Beller returned with a bottle of Tiberius local beer. Although the drink is cheap, it is qualified to show up even at a high-end banquet.

"Ashu Rufate, I guess it's not an easy thing for you to come to me this time." Berel spoke first.

"Well, yes, Lord Beral..."

"Oh, you don't have to be polite, just call me Berel." Berel said.

"I'm here to seek your wisdom." Ashu Rufate hesitated for a moment, and then felt that as long as the key part was not revealed, it would be okay to say the other parts. "I'm planning to go to Sivania...and as far as I know, have you dealt with vampires?"

Berel showed an unexpected expression. "You want to find a vampire?" He looked at Ashu Rufate. "Although I don't know why you are going there, I need to remind you that Ashu Rufate, vampires are not humans. So many things, you can't think about problems from a human perspective."

“Do you know Sivania?”

"I know a lot about this. I can boast that you may not find a few people who are more familiar with Sivania than me within the territory of Tiberius."

"The situation over there...I mean the situation in the whole place, how about it?"

"The vampire who was self-proclaimed as Blood Duke is ruled with an iron fist." Berel answered seriously. "Ashurufate, if you plan to take risks there, I suggest giving up. Because the risk is really too great. The Blood Duke's power is extremely powerful and cannot be overthrown by the efforts of a few loyal and brave men. And all countries... including our country, have no spare time to deal with the vampire. In fact, to be honest, there is only one thing that can be done now, that is, wait." Berel poured the beer into two cups. "When the church and other countries slowly recover their strength before striking it."

"No, you might be misunderstood, I mean...how is the economy and population of that place?"

Beller's action of pouring wine stopped. Of course, this may also be because the glass is almost full.

"Even me," Berel sighed. "It must be admitted that Sivania is a prosperous place. It used to be a small countryside, remote, but produced some specialties. But now, Sivania has become prosperous and has a large population... Well, vampires may be an evil monster, but they do know some ways of domination, even much better than some incompetent human lords." Berel finished speaking, raised a glass of wine and drank it all. "Kalian is also such a place." He added after putting down the glass.

I unexpectedly discovered that many people rewarded and supported me... I was really touched.

In order to show your sincerity, I decided... in the last period, I basically maintained the rhythm of one step earlier, one step later, and one step later.
Chapter completed!
