I Am the Madman of This Family - Chapter 111



Episode 111. Consideration of the strong (5)

It is said that the diamond class is equivalent to a 3-star knight, but that is just an example.

In terms of quantity and quality of aura, knights were overwhelmingly superior, and mercenaries often overpowered combat experience and skill.

Therefore, in a simple one-on-one match between a diamond class and a knight, the knight wins. It’s because the difference in overwhelming power is enough to suppress it.

On the contrary, the true value of a mercenary is displayed in a melee and extreme environment. In an irregular environment, the mercenary’s experience and improvisation shine.

Being a diamond class is a proof that you have survived many battles.

It turns out that Anise’s arrows are destructive and fast. Blocking this from the front in a fair and square way is an unsuitable choice for a mercenary.

Right before Anis fired an arrow, the Dia mercenary cut the floor with his sword. A thick layer of dust rose.

Archer’s weakness, eyesight.

Realistically, it is advantageous not to shoot if the target is not visible. It’s just a waste of arrows and stamina. It’s okay to run away.

However, if there is no place to retreat, you have to shoot an arrow considering countless variables.

Unlike the Platinum mercenaries who rushed at them recklessly, the diamond mercenaries actively aimed at the opponent’s weaknesses.

In the dust, mercenaries rush in while maintaining the shape of the character Pum (品). Do not zigzag. The shortest distance, in a straight line, shortens the distance at once.

Hey hey profit!

With the sound of air escaping, Anise’s arrow pierced the dust. Arrows rained down on the leading mercenary.

The diamond mercenary took off as it was.

Arrows fly again to him who floats in the air.

Shih!

Then, the mercenary twisted in the air and demonstrated acrobatic evasion. The arrows passed by and a wind of blood rose, but it was not a fatal wound.

Anise wanted to ache. While his eyes were sold to the diamond mercenary, he had to allow two platinum mercenaries to approach.

‘I was provoked.’

There was also a complacent thought that it was about platinum. However, when the two Platinums take their time, the Diamond mercenary eventually joins them.

As expected, it was easy to deal with one platinum mercenary, but in the meantime, a diamond mercenary joined them.

Anise’s eyes and hands were busy.

In terms of power and speed, it falls far short of a knight. However, the unpredictable anomaly makes the liver chill.

The diamond mercenary did not overdo it. If it seemed like he was going to get hit by an arrow, he fought safely even if he had to step back. Anise’s whole body was getting more and more minor scars.

Sak!

The blade of the sword brushed against Anise’s fair cheek.

Anise’s bow hit the platinum mercenary’s arm.

Aiming for the gap between them, the diamond mercenary stabbed Anis in the thigh.

Pak!

Anise kicked off the ground and jumped into the air, hooked an arrow to the string and pulled it.

However, I had to frown at the burning pain I felt in my side. The diamond mercenary threw the sword at Anis, who jumped up.

Anise, who lost her balance, fell.

I turned and landed on my back and tried to stand up right away, but the diamond mercenary, who was already waiting on the ground, grabbed my ankle and said.

“You surrender. Or I will break it.”

As he fell, all the arrows in his quiver spilled out. Anise picked up any arrow that caught her finger and threw it at the mercenary.

Quickly!

A diamond mercenary broke Anis’ right ankle. There was an eerie sound, but Anis only slightly frowned and kicked the mercenary with her perfectly fine left foot.

The diamond mercenary, who blocked the kick with his arm, retrieved his thrown sword.

“You’ll give up only when both legs are broken, that’s what I mean.”

The diamond mercenary did not feel sorry for Anis, who was limping. They launched a merciless offensive with all their might.

Anis, who had no arrows and was inconvenient in one leg, couldn’t hold her posture and couldn’t block it several times before eventually falling down again.

The mercenary grabbed his left ankle and said.

“This will hurt a little.”

Pudeuk!

A diamond mercenary who completely breaks his ankle.

Anise’s face was severely crumpled, but she didn’t let out a scream.

Tung!

Anise who shoots an arrow from a lying position.

However, due to his imperfect posture, he suffered the shame of being caught in the hands of mercenaries. The diamond mercenary broke the arrow in his hand.

“Get treatment. You fought pretty well.”

Diamond mercenary turns around and leaves the stage. Anise couldn’t stand up, and gasped for breath while looking up at the sky.

It was a miserable defeat.

Unlike Gyro, who did it moderately, the mercenary did not do it moderately. did my best. The result was this.

Anise gave a dejected smile.

‘Gyro really looked after me a lot.’

Of course, there are three opponents, so it’s even more difficult, but even if you fight one-on-one with a diamond mercenary, you won’t be able to win easily.

A shadow fell over the head of Anis, who laughed dejectedly. It was Keter.

“No.2. Are you laughing?”

“I know I still lack a lot. I will do my best.”

“You are weak. This assistant knows better than you. I mean, why did you give up at the end?”

“I didn’t give up. I really can’t get up anymore… … .”

“Your arms are fine. Can’t lift your upper body? Arrows were scattered all around. Why not shoot?”

“… … !”

The mercenaries who were watching thought Keter was really nasty. Even with a broken ankle, he was incapable of fighting, so he thought it would be harsh to fight to the very end.

It was not wrong. In real combat, it is right to fight until you can fight. However, this is not training.

Keter continued talking as if he had heard the mercenaries’ thoughts.

“The reason you are alive is training. Had it been a real fight, my legs would have been cut rather than broken. Then the arm would be cut off, the neck would be cut off. You just watched your arm get cut off. Even if you have the strength to move.”

“… … .”

“Don’t regret it after dying in battle, enjoy it while you can experience it through training.”

fast!

Keter, who had fixed the dislocated right ankle in an instant, touched Anis’ left ankle this time, grabbed Anise’s arm, and lifted her up.

“Even with the elixir, it will take an hour to recover. Trainee No. 3! It’s your turn.”

Tarragon, who saw that Anise had been horribly defeated, stood on the stage nervously.

Team 6 of the 2nd Squad, who had a complete understanding of the training system, immediately rushed onto the stage, and the battle began.

* * *

Tarragon definitely had a different style than Anise. Instead of standing in one place and intercepting, they constantly moved and increased the distance.

It was a tactic that worked well against the Platinum mercenaries, but when the diamond class mercenaries joined, the bottom line was quickly revealed.

Awesome!

The diamond mercenary’s sword cut through Tarragon’s hair in clumps. It was a blow that could have cut off an ear.

“Huh! 100 million!”

Tarragon jumped up in the air, twisted his back in a hurry, and fell into the air.

Falling, Tarragon wriggled on the floor, missing his bow. The back is completely gone.

“Well, it looks like you broke your back.”

It wasn’t a lack of warm-up or anything like that.

Group 6 left the stage, and Keter immediately entered.

Cook Cook.

Keter, who stabbed Tarragon in the waist, clicked his tongue.

“It is a lack of flexibility. If you lack flexibility, at least protect it with an aura.”

The two of them fought well until the end against the 1st squad, which consisted of three Platinum mercenaries, but the 2nd squad, which included the Diamond mercenary, was seriously injured from the first group.

It was a part where the level difference was clearly felt.

Tarragon lay face down on the cot. An attendant sprayed the elixir on his waist and gave him a massage.

Next to him was Anise, who was sitting with her ankles dipped in the elixir.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Despite being an older brother and younger brother, they do not communicate with each other. Instead, there was only awkward silence.

It wasn’t an awkward relationship from the start. However, as they competed with each other, it became difficult to talk to them easily.

Tarragon tried to talk to him first because he was his younger brother, but stopped because he thought it was pointless.

Anise also glanced at Tarragon for no reason, but when their eyes met, she averted her gaze.

‘I want to encourage you, but I don’t know if I deserve it.’

Keter entered between two brothers who were physically close but emotionally distant.

“Trainees. fist.”

Anise and Tarragon looked at Kether.

“My teaching assistant would have told me to use my imagination. I don’t understand at all. It’s my fault for trusting you, so please give me an example. Don’t just do what you do every day. Is there anything you want to try? I wish I could do this, is there anything I want? Even if you get injured, I will treat you, and even if you fail, there are dozens of chances left. If there’s something you want to do, if there’s something you want to try, try everything. Even if it’s funny, nonsensical, and stupid, I mean, do it.”

Keter, who poured out words with a rapid-fire cannon, made a refreshing expression.

“I feel a little better now.”

Keter said that this was enough, but Anise and Tarragon were confused.

‘I understand what you mean, but what the hell are you trying to do?’

The difference in perspective between Keter, who grew up in a place without rules, and the two people, who grew up in a prestigious family with strict rules as well as discipline, was huge.

It was like a bird telling a fish to fly, or a fish telling a bird to swim with its fins.

The diversity that Anise and Tarragon thought was already 100% demonstrated just by mixing taijutsu. It wasn’t easy to think of what to do beyond that.

But when Keter told me to do it, I thought hard about it. Something other than archery and chess that could be used in a fight.

break is over

Anis, who recovered first, took the stage, and the second group of the second squad also entered the stage.

However, this time, Team 2’s method was very unique. So far, all the mercenaries have entered the stage ‘together’. However, in Group 2, three people entered in different directions. It was to start from the beginning in the form of besieging Anis.

Anis, who confronted him, listened to Keter’s words and responded with bizarre behavior.

He jumped to the center of the stage and took a vertical leap. Then, it created a platform for the aura, and continued to soar into the sky.

The mercenaries following Anis stopped at some point and raised their heads.

From noble mtl dot com

“How far are you going?”

The range of Aura Flight, which sends an aura, is 5 meters, and the limit is 10 meters at the longest. Anise had risen a whopping 50 meters, and now her figure seemed small.

Anis, who climbed to a height of 50 meters, shot an arrow. 50 meters in height is far away, but 50 meters in archery is only a short distance.

“Huh!”

Arrows shot from above and below are on a different level from shooting in a straight line. Gravity, which hindered it, rather helped, making it faster and more powerful.

In addition, it was more difficult to perceive visually, so the diamond mercenary, who was aimed at the bow, rolled his body loudly without even trying to stop.

Bang!

An arrow shot from the sky went deep into the ground.

fast, powerful

The mercenaries were in a hurry to avoid. No matter how good the leaping power is, 5 meters is the limit. The meticulous control of the aura that created the foothold for the aura was too much for the mercenaries.

Pyubyubyub!

Anis shot an arrow while falling from 50 meters. All the mercenaries could do was put on armor and run away.

But even mercenaries have opportunities. Anise’s back has no wings. The moment to fall was sure to come.

However, at the 20m mark, Anis made the foothold of Auror again. The intention was to go up into the air again, but-

Slap!

The aura’s footing could not stand it and broke.

Of course. There is a difference of dozens of times in the amount of impact when going up and when falling. Anis was also aware of it, so he injected twice as much aura, but it was absurdly insufficient.

Anise’s body, which was balancing in the air, shook greatly. It was an out of control attitude.

Kwaaang!

Anise crashed to the ground. I spread my aura armor, but the impact hit my whole body because I fell from too high a height.

The mercenaries were bewildered. Anis destroyed herself without a single swing of the sword.

Keter approached Anis, who flinched just like Tarragon.

“It was a good try.”

Even when the bones in her body were shattered, the praise was a pleasant one, Anise smiling.
