27-23 Temporary enlistment in the Luciel War Maiden Paladin? Practical training for twin swords




After waking up earlier than usual and getting ready to go out at any time, I had developed an image against the twin swordsmanship while training in magic.
I think of the twin swords as something that you can use to toss your opponent around and defeat them with a lot of hands. There may be many interpretations, but that's the way I see it in my image.
Once, I tried to hold the greatsword with one hand, but I couldn't, and Gruger looked at me and said, "Well, drink it," and gave me an Object X instead of an ale.
Come to think of it, since then Object X has come out undiluted.
(*Note: Gurugar, out of kindness, had stepped on the assumption that if he made Object X drink undiluted, no matter how much Luciel, he would pass out and his memory of the before and after would fly away. (But unexpectedly, he drank it all up and his growth plans were changed.

As I was remembering that, I heard a knock on the door.
''Yes, sir. Who are you?
''I'm Elizabeth from the War Maiden Holy Order. I'm here to pick up Miss Luciel,'' a voice said.
I'll be right there." "Are you a nobleman, Elizabeth? With that in mind, I drank that thing I had prepared and cast a cleansing spell, then turned the doorknob.

'Good morning. I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one. Thank you for your time and effort.
''It's fine. Today, I'm going to thoroughly imprint the use of the twin swords on that body, so please be prepared.
...does she seem very angry?
It's just my imagination. Let's go.
Yes, sir.
I had an aura of not prying further, so I walked towards the War Maiden Holy Knights' training grounds.

The War Maiden Holy Knight Squadron faces were waiting for me to come, neatly formed in the same formation as last week.
''Good morning, Luciel-kun, and thank you for your hard work, Elizabeth.''
Elizabeth bailed first and returned to the line.
'Good morning. It's a pleasure to meet you today.
I was about to turn back to greet him when he stopped me.
'Oh, Mr. Luciel, you may keep this.'
I looked and saw Lumina reaching out and pointing a card at me. I take the card right away.
"What's this?
''That's what the War Maiden Holy Knight Corps is all about. Keep it with you at ease. As long as you have it, there's no penalty for being in an area that's off-limits to anyone but the Holy Knights.
''No, it's not. It's about why I, a man, have been issued a membership card for the War Maiden Holy Knights, albeit a temporary one.
'I talked to someone about it and they said it would be interesting, so I got permission from above. That's all.
It's just that...
"Don't be a man," he says. You're gonna go bald one day. All right, let's go work up a sweat.
The sound of giggles and elegant laughter lingered in my ears, and when I turned around, everyone followed after Lumina, who started running with a ''yes''.
''Too excusable~''
I followed after him as fast as I could.

'Hahahaha,' he exhaled loudly and took a big breath in to regulate his breathing.
'That's a lot faster than last week.'
But it was still seven laps behind, though.
'A healer would be pretty quick, wouldn't he?
Why the questioning type?
"Well, well. Gentlemen, today you will pair up with all but Elizabeth and Ripnea, one on one, and then pair up with your opponents for a round-robin.
Yes, sir.
''Elizabeth and Ripnea will first have a mock battle between the twin swords, and then a mock battle with Luciel-kun. However, cutting and sudden attacks are prohibited.
"Yes.
Then split up and start training.
This is how I got to see the mock battle of the War Maiden Holy Knights for the first time.

As I lowered my stance and slid, Ripnea-san approached Elizabeth-san and slashed at her leg with her right hand sword as she passed by from her left hand side.
She doesn't panic and catches it with her right sword as well, while spinning her right leg around the axis to slash at her back with the sword she holds on her left.
As if he had read it again, he floated his body and flipped over to catch the sword and used his momentum to move Ripnea away from Elizabeth-san.
He launched a series of blink-and-blink fast attacks, but he responded with a series of attacks and closed in with overwhelming speed, but he couldn't settle for much because one of them could do the same thing.
As the performance-like attack and defense continued, Elizabeth, who received both attacks from the twin swords, stopped the sword in her left hand at the side of her neck to settle the matter.
The fact that both of Ripnea's attacks came together was undoubtedly the reason for her defeat this time.

''How was it watching?
Both of you were quick and precise in attacking where they didn't want to be, and you seemed to be moving in multiple patterns, many moves ahead.
What about the twin swords?
'Yes. There are more gaps than I thought. There were numerous theories that said you couldn't be limited in your actions or stopped from attacking in order to make a series of attacks, and at the same time, you couldn't be stopped from attacking at the same time.
'Hmm. You see it right. Other than that, feints are useful, but when dealing with twin swords, the axis is blurred, so the final push on the attack is not enough. Now that we've recognized the shortcomings, it's now Luciel-kun's turn.
'Yes. I'll try.

Thus, the first thing I did was to fight Ripnea-san.
I activate my magic as a signal to start and raise my physical defense and put my shield in front of me and wait for the attack.
I'm getting hit by a series of blows from left and right at the top, middle and bottom, and I'm looking like a turtle, but I can manage to withstand the attacks.
It reminds me of Mr. Brod's too fast, but it's not as oppressive as that, and it's bearable.
I look for multiple opportunities and as the attacks become more and more gaping, I thrust out my shield to kill the speed and swing my sword down.
The next moment, I see the sky and a shock to my jaw makes my legs lose their strength.

''Are you okay?''
'Yes. 'I'm very clear on the consciousness. More importantly, what happened at the end? The moment you think you've won, this is what it looks like, so I need an explanation.
'The moment you swung your sword down after being successfully defended, Ripuane kicked you in a backward somersault stream and it caught you in the jaw. You were then kicked up, your head shook and you couldn't stand up.
'I see,' I said as I heeled my head and my legs regained their strength, 'another one, please.'

If Ripnea-san was a series of attacks, Elizabeth's counter was her weapon of choice. She could flow my attacks with one hand or catch my attacks with both hands, and if there was an opening, she could kick, and there was plenty of variation, so we couldn't attack carelessly either.
I pretended to attack with my sword and rammed my entire shield into it, "That's a bad move, The moment I heard Elizabeth's voice muttering, Elizabeth, who was in front of me, disappeared and fell to her feet.
And then slowly the sword was thrust against her back. This is how the second battle ended.
'What was that thing? Why has Miss Elizabeth disappeared?
This is Elizabeth's magic. Elizabeth, explain yourself.
'Yes. I'm actually a double with the light and water attributes. That's why I created the illusion. That's why I put my illusion in front of you just before the interval and aimed for the moment when I had an opening.
I learned a lot," I said, bowing my head honestly.
The early morning training ended with advice from Lumina as the three of us rallied together.
