The Greatest Architect

Boom!

“Phew!”

A subtle blow to the face.

Lord Neumann's vision turned around.

What is it?

Suddenly, I was numb.

But that time was not long.

Lord Neumann quickly regained his senses.

I quickly understood the situation I was in.

‘My attack was blocked. You even got countered? Me? "

Slow vision.

You see blood drops flying slowly into the air.

Blood gushed from his mouth.

Then the inside of my mouth froze.

The inside of the bowl seems to burst from the impact.

‘Cause of that little guy? Me? "

Cadduk!

Lord Neumann gritted his teeth without my knowledge.

I quickly moved my legs.

I spread my legs wide and spread the ground.

You dodged a close fall, lowering your lower back.

“Khhh!”

As soon as the balance was restored, the synthesis was released.

You've gathered Manahart's Mana. You turn to your body. You draw the sword with your revived energy. I raised it from the bottom to the top.

It was a repentant counterattack.

But the aggression was quickly blocked.

Ka 'ang!

“Oh, but they immediately counteract. Sir Ulrich was distracted the last time he was shot. ”

“…… sob! ”

A broad shovel stands between the Longsword.

But Lord Neumann's aggression did not end there.

As soon as I realized the counterattack was blocked, I changed the sword's movement.

You take a step and turn your sword.

Kaga Gaga!

The blade and shovel entangle and scratch.

I'll blow you a shovel! ’

Twice the weapons on both sides and then remove them.

The opposing Pokémon then misses its weapon.

Make Lloyd empty-handed, then hang his leg and knock him down.

That was the battle plan that Lord Neumann made momentarily.

But he didn't know it yet.

The sad truth that everyone has a beautiful plan until they are beaten.

“Tsk. Disarm. Good intentions.”

Karaoke!

The movement of the sword and shovel, which were intertwined with Lloyd's meaningful horse, stopped.

No, Lloyd stopped shoveling, to be exact.

Then the sword stopped.

At the same time, the power drains out of Lord Neumann's Manahart like a tide.

From Manahart with both arms.

From arms to swords.

From sword... to shovel.

It's like the drink is being sucked straight up into a straw.

Or spilled water gets sucked up into a tissue.

His Mana is being sucked into Lloyd's shovel!

“What the hell! ”

Lord Neumann, who was frightened, was in a hurry to draw his sword.

But that was not my choice either.

Somehow his movements are slower than usual.

To be more precise, I couldn't use Mana.

I felt like a regular person in a flash.

Whereas Lloyd?

A knight of the Sword Expert has been charging at a decent rate to show you!

“Thank God. ”

“ ……! ”

Execute!

So light.

It's really simple.

Lloyd dives into this gap.

“Khhh!”

Lord Neumann was in a hurry to wield his blackened sword.

But Lloyd's next reaction was much quicker.

Whoo-hoo!

“ ……! ”

The handle of the shovel was just swarming.

And he smashed his nose with no room to escape.

Kwazak!

“Cough!”

I think I broke my nose.

It was hard to open my eyes to the heavy and bitter pain.

I stumbled back three steps without knowing it.

Lloyd has made more persistent progress.

“Actually, I was a little worried. I've never seen a Sword Express subordinate digest Mana into a single circle. ”

“Grrr!”

Lord Neumann was averse.

You slap the sword with your urgent posture.

At least momentarily, Mana recovers from a slight counterattack.

But even that counterattack turned into despair the moment the sword got stuck in the shovel.

The Mana on the sword was absorbed by another shovel!

"This is crazy! ’

Tsk, tsk!

A shovel with Mana flew in.

I was struck by a flat shovel.

My head twitched and my vision became clouded.

This was the first time.

I never imagined.

‘That little brat is... absorbing my Mana.' ’

Now I can finally understand the situation.

So I couldn't understand it any more.

Absorbing other people's mana.

You're using that absorbed Mana as your own.

‘…… how? ’

I felt like a fraud.

It was unfair.

But Lord Neumann did not give up.

I tried not to fall.

You continue the incompetent counterattack.

Of course, the more he did, the more he pushed him away.

Are you out of your mind? You don't understand what's going on here, do you? That's why I got you. You just spent the last month convinced you were going to win, but I didn't! ’

The target is thoroughly analyzed.

I predicted all situations of the duel.

All kinds of preparations to win were made.

The result was now.

Ca-can, tuk-tuck!

You move the shovel forward with a shrewd motion.

Never overshoot it.

Don't stray from the midline of your body.

Be as concise as possible.

You pull out Lord Neumann's sword, striking back.

As soon as I took a step left, I reached for the shovel head.

At the end, I gave Lord Neumann a snap and struck him with a flat shovel.

Lloyd's heart was beating like never before.

It was thanks to Mana Circle created around the heart.

Kieing!

The first weapon Lloyd has equipped for today's battle.

It was Manah's circle, created by Asran.

The Mana absorbed from Sir Neumann is powered by a powerful spin.

I resonated with the rotation and my heart thumped violently.

Fresh blood is sent throughout the body with explosive force.

It was filled with blood that was released from Manacle.

‘This is the power of a single circle. ’

I was really surprised.

I never expected this much power.

I only expected to absorb Lord Neumann's Mana and weaken the opponent a little.

The power radiating through his body now was completely beyond expectation.

In other words, he was able to harness the power of Lord Neumann!

‘Sword Expert, it's incredible. ’

I felt superhuman.

I realized how powerful knights like Sir Sam Neumann are.

So the second weapon he prepared was a real shovel of steel.

Ka 'anga! Ka 'anga!

The steel shovel in Lloyd's hand flashes and moves.

Every time, Lord Neumann held back the sword he wielded.

It was like a shield on the edge of a long pole.

‘Everyone ignores it, but it turns out it's a shovel. It's a great tool. ’

I know people who've done some digging in the military.

The shovel was more than just a work tool.

What if you dug up a bothersome vine root or a little tree root?

You just have to stand up and film it.

Cut a small branch of chaotic vegetation with one swing.

The role of the axe itself was possible.

‘That's not all. ’

Historically, Lloyd knew that shovels were used as weapons many times.

Even on the western front of the Great War when there was a terrible tremendous tremor.

Even at the Stalingrad Workshop in WWII.

In the Hundred Soldiers' War, shovels glow with weapons.

The scepter chops the opposing team's helmet and cracks their skulls open.

Moreover, shovels could play a variety of roles.

‘You can use a shovel with a large area as a shield. You can pull the opponent's weapon from the underside of the shovel. A sharp tip pierces the opponent like a spear. ’

Even if I pull the shovel upside down and climb on the shovel?

I can ride a Sky Bean! ’

It's like MacGyver Carl in the weapons world.

It was Lloyd who handled so many shovels.

The number of summons for storage of rows in the ROK military (?).

Even when I was preaching the construction to prepare for the tuition.

The shovel was always his strong companion.

It was also the best tool in the hand.

Moreover, he invested his recently accumulated RP to refine his new talent skills.

That's the third weapon he's prepared.

It was a ‘Extended Skill: (Shovel)' investment of 40 RP.

Ding-dong!

[Extension Skill: (Shovel) is active.]

[Tools and I are one and the same! Today I decided to shovel!]

[Skill Level: 1]

[Consume 10% less health while using shovels.]

[Shovel moves 5% faster.]

[Shovel gives 5% more power.]

[20% less chance of missing shovels.]

A shovel. It's the best tool in the world.

Skill that makes shoveling effective.

This was the third weapon that was perfect for him.

‘And this is the fourth and final weapon. ’

Kill him!

Lloyd's shovel moves again.

You blocked Sir Neumann's blade from plunging in perfectly.

The movement of the shovel never crossed Lloyd's midline.

Simple but concise and robust.

So be efficient and practical.

Compatible enough to handle a shovel as a weapon (?) Even awesome skills.

It was a combat method, a bayonet, that any Korean military man would have ever learned.

Wheeler, ca-ang! Kwazak!

You step aside and stab to the right.

Lord Neumann swings his sword across.

I blocked the lower left. I punched him.

I followed Lord Neumann backwards in a concise step.

You turn to the left and hold the shovel.

At the same time, they cut off Sir Neumann's groin with a forward kick.

Lord Neumann turned his temples around with the handle of a shovel he laid down when he was embarrassed.

Squeak!

“Cough!”

Lord Neumann staggers and retreats.

A smile appeared on Lloyd's mouth, breathing heavily.

"As it works, bayonet. ’

In fact, a bayonet was never weak.

The roots were surprisingly small sod techniques developed in Europe in the 18th century, since they were easily recognized by all Korean military personnel.

To this was combined the steps of boxing. Ultimately, technology was meticulously accumulated and refined through various combat examples, such as World War I, World War II, and War 6.25.

After all, it was a very practical fighting technique.

Plus, this bayonet is amazing with shovels and synergies! ’

Many of you may have played around with a shovel and opened your bayonet during your work.

Lloyd did, too.

Here's the basics of swordsmanship I learned from Xaviel.

The effect was surprising.

Aslahan Mind Circle.

A steel shovel that is extremely versatile.

An elongated skill that can be used to enhance shoveling.

And a practical bayonet based on Xaviel's teachings.

Four weapons prepared for today's duel have sparked a powerful synergy.

Sir Neumann, who was in the duel, was literally overwhelmed, or rather unilaterally crushed.

“Growl!”

Baaak!

Lord Neumann, who was struck by the temples with a shovel handle, stumbles.

But the chance to fall on him.) were not given.

A shovel of Lloyd flies in after him.

Boom!

You hammered the side with a flat shovel.

I even shoveled my toes with pointy shovels!

Kuaak!

“…… Khhh! ”

Lord Neumann was a fool.

You get Mana absorbed every time you try to counter.

A shovel of strange shapes unleashes an unpredictable attack.

Like that, Lloyd's movements with shovels were unfamiliar.

Moreover, all of Lloyd's movements were extremely concise.

You can't do this! ’

I was angry.

I was angry.

It was in front of most of the territory.

I can't believe I'm being beaten by a young master who's just a kid.

A shovel that doesn't even have a proper weapon.

I'll kill you! ’

Lord Neumann's eyes gave birth to a humble life.

It didn't matter what the duel was now.

A child who humiliated himself in front of everyone.

I wanted to finish him off somehow.

‘Cause accidents that happen during a duel are uncommon! ’

So the wrong sword pierces the heart of the opponent.

Or cut his throat with a sword twisted in confusion.

It wasn't that unusual.

And even if that happens now?

He was confident he could handle it.

‘This territory, it's going to be ruined sooner or later. That's why we're leaving a little sooner than expected! I'm living with the new owner! The accident that happened in the middle of it? I can't help it. You can't punish me for what happened during the duel, right? ’

So when the duel is over, we can be silent.

You can leave this territory early and find a new owner.

Lord Neumann grips the hilt of his sword as he makes his own plan.

I grabbed the sword with my other hand.

I pulled it.

Shhh!

The longsword that has been shrouded in the sword has revealed a cool fang.

Without hesitation, he reaches straight for Lloyd.

At the end of that path was Lloyd's heart.

“Ahh!”

Unlike before, it was a lively blow.

The territories I was watching screamed without my knowledge.

Baron Frontera, who was sitting on the platform, was startled and woke up.

But not Lloyd.

‘Well, what do I do? ’

I felt alive.

But it was a slow blow.

I was exhausted because I had already been hit so much.

Although it is said to be a sword, such grumbling was not the Lloyd who would be thrashed by the counterattack.

It was because I anticipated there would be a one-time counterattack.

‘And I waited for this. ’

Ka 'ang!

You block the Longsword as if it were a steel shovel waiting.

Lord Neumann intertwines the Longsword just as he tried.

Kaga Gaga!

You twist it, pulling it away. I was rooted.

“…… what? ”

Pa 'a.

A longsword escapes Lord Neumann's grasp and flies through the sky.

I plugged it into the ground ten feet away.

“ ……. ”

There was static hovering around the training ground.

Hundreds of spectators' eyes are stunned.

Lord Neumann has lost his sword.

Lloyd aiming at Sir Neumann's face with a shovel.

It was an unbelievable, picturesque victory.

But Lloyd's business is not over.

“A bruise ends a duel? Huh?”

“ ……! ”

Kuang!

In the silence of all, Lloyd's steel shovel flies.

You punched Sir Neumann's face more firmly.

For a blowjob?

It wasn't.

‘Now it begins. From now on.’

Again, I intend to extract the rotten sprouts rooted in this territory today.

‘First, confess the traitor. ’

Lloyd's eyes toward Sir Neumann have been frozen ever since.
