Chapter 209: Shocked (3)
***
The Colosseum’s interior erupted into a frenzy in an instant.
“An aurablade?”
“Woah, is it a fake?”
“Don’t be ridiculous. How could there be a fake aurablade?”
The knights stared at the aurablade Damien had created, their faces filled with shock.
“A Masterclass has been born in the Apple Kingdom.”
“The balance of power on the continent will shift.”
“We must report this to our homeland immediately.”
Unlike the Empire or the Church, in other kingdoms, Master Class knights were rare beings, appearing perhaps once a century.
As such, the influence a Master Class had on surrounding kingdoms was immense once one was born.
“But how old is that guy?”
“Even if he’s stretching the truth, he can’t be older than mid-20s.”
“A Masterclass at such a young age... I can’t believe my eyes even though I’m seeing it.”
It was Damien’s age that made the wandering knights interested in him, as they were not affiliated with any kingdom.
There weren’t many instances throughout history where someone ascended to Masterclass in their 20s.
“Even the Empire would have a hard time finding someone this talented.”
“Only someone like the Imperial Supreme Sword or the Sword Saint could do it.”
“I did hear rumors that a new monstrous talent had appeared in the Empire recently.”
“Perhaps the winner of the tournament has already been decided.”
The antagonistic gazes changed in an instant.
The people looked at Damien with eyes filled with shock, awe, and reverence.
“It seems the proof is complete, so we’ll be taking our leave now.”
Liam led his group out of the Colosseum.
Even after they left, the Colosseum buzzed with talk about Damien.
***
Damien and others exited the Colosseum without a word.
“Brother! Did you see that? They were all so stunned by your aurablade that they couldn’t even make a peep!”
As soon as they stepped outside, Michael rejoiced as if it were his own achievement.
It seemed he was in a good mood after giving those who had initially ignored Damien a taste of his power.
“Why don’t we go in and rest quickly instead? I’m getting tired now.”
Veronica said, yawning. Michael glared at her and scolded her.CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m
“Everything is decided by brother and Sir Liam. Middle-Class people like you should just stay quiet.”
“What, what? Are you done talking?”
“No, there’s more. Don’t complain about being Middle-Class.”
Veronica’s face turned beet red at Michael’s teasing. However, she couldn’t bring herself to argue with him.
Ignoring the two of them, Damien asked Liam.
“Sir Liam, where should we go now?”
“Just wait a moment. I told them to send someone here once we got a room.”
As if on cue, a soldier wearing the armor of the Apple Kingdom came running from a distance.
“I apologize for the delay. It took us a long time to find a room...”
“It’s fine. Did you find a room?”
“That’s...”
The soldier’s expression hardened.
“All the high-class inns, and even the decent ones, are fully booked.”
“Is that really true?”
“Yes, there are some inns left... but they are all of low quality...”
Liam’s expression turned troubled at the soldier’s words.
He had come to the Empire as an envoy of the Apple Kingdom, so he couldn’t just choose any inn.
What’s more, if they stayed in a bad inn, they wouldn’t be able to recover from their fatigue properly. It could have a negative impact on the Helian tournament.
“What should we do...”
It was because of the man sitting in front of her.
A large build like a bear, overly developed arms, and a face full of beard.
Despite his bandit-like appearance, the man was blushing in front of Rachel.
“Y-You’re even more beautiful than I heard you were!”
“You’re flattering me.”
“No, I’m not! I’ve never seen anyone as beautiful as you, Lady Rachel! N-Not that I’ve seen many women, though...”
Rachel suppressed the urge to jump up and leave immediately.
Rachel was not originally a very patient person. However, she needed to be patient with this man.
Bradley Heath.
The second son of Marquis Heath, a genius who had ascended to Master Class at a young age in his late 20s.
Even Duke Lichteawer’s family could not ignore such a person.
“L-Lady Rachel... H-Have you been seeing anyone lately...”
“No.”
Bradley’s face brightened considerably. Rachel couldn’t help but smile wryly at his expression.
It was all too clear what this man wanted.
Most of the men who met Rachel had the same reaction. So it was impossible not to know.
However, Rachel had no intention of reciprocating Bradley’s feelings.
It wasn’t just that Bradley wasn’t her type, but she also had no plans to get married at all.
‘I’m so busy training my sword, what kind of marriage is this?’
She wondered how she could naturally get rid of Bradley. As she was thinking,
“Lady, I’m here.”
The door to the reception room opened and a man entered. It was David, Rachel’s attendant.
“David, don’t you see that we have a guest?”
Rachel said with a feigned stern expression. But her true feelings were completely different.
‘David. Thank you for coming in when the time is right.’
‘You’re welcome.’
Rachel and David quickly exchanged glances.
Having been together for so long, this level of communication was easy.
“I apologize. I thought it was a very important guest...”
“An important guest?”
“A knight from the Apple Kingdom has brought a ring with Duke Lichteawer’s crest on it.”
A knight from the Apple Kingdom, a ring with the Duke Lichteawer’s crest.
The moment the two words combined, one person came to mind.
“Surely...?”
“Yes, Sir Damien Haksen is here.”
Rachel’s face broke into a bright smile. Rachel rose from her seat without realizing it.
Bradley looked at Rachel with a surprised expression.
“Lady Rachel?”
“I’m sorry. But I have a very important guest.”
Rachel said something vague and ran out of the reception room.
How could she forget the name Damien Haksen?
The man who had defeated her, the greatest talent in the history of the Lichteawer family, in one fell swoop.
Since then, Rachel had devoted herself to training. With the sole determination to defeat that man, she had risen to the ranks of High Class.
‘Finally, I can get my revenge!’
Rachel almost flew down to the first floor. As soon as she saw Damien’s face, she shouted loudly.
“Damien! You haven’t forgotten our promise, have you? Duel me right now...”
However, the moment she saw Damien’s face, Rachel lost her words.
It was because of the atmosphere she felt from Damien.
Just approaching him made her feel like her body was getting heavy. Her instincts kept sending her warnings.
She had felt a similar feeling several times from her father and other knights when she was at the main house.
“...Master Class?”
Shock appeared on Rachel’s face.
