63 63. One Knight




 I'm gonna test my strength.
 After that, I was taken to the training hall.
 The training hall was very large, and could easily hold more than a hundred people.

What's wrong? Are you scared?

 Arc, the Knight Commander, laughed.

'It's much bigger than the halls in the Academy. I just thought it would be safe to exercise a little harder here.
"......! I'll change that insolent attitude right now!

 Seeing my attitude, Arc seemed to be in a rage.
 I can't be bothered to use honorifics with him every time.
 It should be no problem to use the usual tone.

"Kurt. I'm looking forward to seeing your power before my eyes.

 The King will call out to you.

 By the way, ...... the King, his ministers, and some of the other people in the palace are upstairs looking down on us.
 There is an atrium through which we can see what is going on.
 It's quite impressive for a mere training ground to have such facilities.

"So, Commander. Shall we fight right away?
Wait a minute. Don't be so hasty.

 Ark continued with a relaxed attitude.

I'll first find out if I need to take any action in the first place. ......
"Huh?
"Because if the difference in power is too great, you'll end up bullying the weak. This is my way of being kind.
You're making a lot of noise, but I don't care. Then how will you test my strength?
"First you will fight the best of the Order.

 Ark snapped his fingers.

 Then fifty men in armor appeared from the back of the room.

These men are all members of the Order. Furthermore, from among them, we will select one of the five most skilled members of the Order.

 When Ark said that, five men stepped forward from among the fifty knights.

'Let's start with these men and have them fight in turn. You will fight each of these men in turn until one of you is incapacitated or gives up. Just so you know, there will be no cheating. There will be spectators watching this fight, and the Order will be watching every move you make. Fight fair.

 Hmm.
 A winner-takes-all game.
 If you show any suspicious movements, the king and other ordinary people watching from the second floor will not be able to see, but the veteran knights will not be able to deceive you.
 Well, I wasn't going to do it.

 However,......, from the look on Ark's face,......, it seems that he did not bring fifty knights for that reason alone.
 In the event that those five are about to be defeated, they're probably planning to increase the number of people fighting for some other reason.

By the way, that guy had an injured right leg. This is where the real power lies.
 That's what he said.

 He's quite a coward.
 But there's no need to take him seriously.

Ark. What are you talking about?
Hmm? Didn't Kurt-sama single-handedly defeat the Dark Demon and other demons? Are you trying to tell me that five against one is a disadvantage? Considering Kurt-dono's ability, I think it's a fair point. ......

 Ark made a disgusted smile.
 I don't dislike this cautious approach to victory, but it's a waste of time.

 I looked at not only the five knights who had been selected as representatives but also the people behind them.


"All of them. I'll deal with all of you at once, so come at me.


 He said.

"What about ......?

 As expected, Ark miscalculated and opened his mouth stupidly.

"Kurt, are you ...... insane?
Yeah. And if you're going to lose, you were planning on selecting more than just the five of you, weren't you? Then it's faster to take them all on at once.

 When I continued, Ark's face turned bright red.

He turned red and said, "You've been taunting my Order too much! I'm going to educate you about your insolence now! Hey, you guys! This is a deviation from our original plan, but ...... all of you! All of you, crush this boy!

 The fifty knights were confused.

 The fifty knights were puzzled, but each of them took up a sword, bow and arrow.

"Okay. Let's begin.

 I too drew my sword from its scabbard.



 Then all at once, the knights attacked me.

"Ho ......

 But they didn't just charge at me.
 Some are in the vanguard, some are in the tank role, some are in the middle guard, some are in the rear guard, some are firing their bows and arrows.
 They are strategically arranged in formation.

 This is as expected of a knight order that is in charge of the country's military.
 However.

"We're not good enough.

 I muttered, and swung my sword at the incoming vanguard.
 I used body-enhancement magic and even magic strikes to knock them away with short to medium range attacks.


What the hell is this kid! You're moving too fast for me to see you!
Don't panic! Don't break formation. ...... Guha!
There are fifty of us over here. If each of us follows our role, we can't be defeated by just one child. ......!


 The formation of the knights is crumbling as we speak.
 But they are making a crucial mistake.

You'll be able to get a lot more than just a single person to play the role of vanguard, middle and rearguard.

 In my previous life, I rarely had a party, so I had to fight alone.
 As a result, you can combine the offensive and defensive capabilities of the vanguard, prepare for battle as the middle guard, and use healing magic and large-scale magic ...... in the rear guard, all at the same time.

 They're in such a hurry because they think I'm fighting ...... alone.
 They should at least think that I am fighting an army of 10,000.

 Every time I swung my sword, the number of knights available for battle decreased.
 There are only 20 left: .......
 Now, let's get the rest of them out of here.

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.

 I'll take out the national treasure from the storage spell.


I'll use the spear. Where the hell did you get that from?
"There's no way I can use that. I tried to hold it in my hand once, but it was too heavy for me to hold properly.
How are you going to wield that thing? ......



 How are you going to use it? Wield it?

 I'm not going to use this kind of divine spear as my favorite weapon in the first place.

"......

 I'm not sure what to do with it.
 I'm not sure what to do with it.

「「「「「 Ahhhhhhh! 」」」」」

 Then it pierced the middle of the 20 men and caused an explosion around the point of impact.
 The knights flew up into the air, slammed their bodies into the ground, and never woke up.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea. If you just throw it like this, the moment it hits the ground, the magic will unfold and destroy the opponent. ......

 In the event that you have any kind of questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for and how you can get it.
 After all, it is not practical to use it like a disposable bomb .......

You can't just toss a national treasure around like that. It's unthinkable. ......!

 I'm not sure what to do.
 I'm not sure what to make of it.

 I turned to him and moved my mouth to say.

Now, ......, it's your turn.
