Chapter 124: Chapter 123
She turned her head.
A touch of red comes into view.
On the stairs.
The red skirt dragged on the ground as she walked quickly.
Then.
As if she felt being watched, she became more dignified.
Curbing the panic that shouldn't exist.
Slower and slower.
Finally stopped.
Hilda stood on the steps, looking at the two figures.
The air was silent for a while, with only the sound of the bunny-eared girl who followed Hilda steadily and helped her adjust her skirt.
Hilda just spoke.
"Arifa said that you, Allen, might be injured in the competition with Gilenu. But it seems that nothing serious has happened. I don't know much about swordsmanship. Is it because the noise is loud but not actually dangerous?"
As she spoke, she turned her head and looked to the side.
In the distance, Gileno was still standing there, with her usual indifferent expression, staring at this place, and at the same time, she was saying something to Alice beside her.
Alan's voice rang in her ears.
"Yes, ma'am, it is indeed just a simple competition. It's just a big show with little results. Don't worry."
Hilda looked at Alan and was about to say something, but in the end she felt that there was nothing to say, so she hesitated for a moment.
He hummed in a nasal voice.
At this time, Rudy also ran over. He first hurriedly performed a noble salute to Hilda, then quickly glanced at Alan, and then looked straight at the broken knife in his hand, his face full of surprise.
"Alan! Are you okay? I think Sylphy cast a healing spell on you just now."
"I'm fine."
"What happened just now? Wasn't it the Silent Sword? Even the Saint-level Light Sword couldn't do anything to you, how could this happen?"
Alan followed Rudy's gaze and looked down at the broken knife in his hand. His eyes paused for a moment at the broken section of the blade.
"Well, actually, my sword god style has regressed."
"Regressed?" Sylphy and Rudy said in unison.
"Yes, maybe I haven't practiced lately."
Rudy opened his mouth, feeling confused.
"When we were on the road the day before yesterday, your Silent Sword was clearly quite powerful."
"Well, maybe it's because I haven't wielded the knife in the past two days."
"How is that possible?"
Rudy frowned and subconsciously glanced at Sylphy.
? ?
"Eh? What's wrong with your clothes, Sylphy? This style. Did you and Alan secretly go out to buy clothes while I was away? That doesn't make sense. You haven't had time to go out in the past two days."
"Ah! What is this?" Sylphy was a little flustered.
"I saw that Sylphy was soaking wet, so I brought her to my place and helped her pick out some clothes. What do you think?"
"Thank you, it suits her very well."
"Well, Alan is right. It really suits Sylphy. But the size..."
The sound of conversation was carried by the wind.
After stroking Sylphy, she looked down at her skirt, then quickly looked up at Alan and Hilda with a nervous look on their faces.
Yang in the air.
The lingering sound drifted through the courtyard.
Before the wind blew onto Alice's dazed expression.
It just dissipated.
When Allen was slashed and flew away, Alice subconsciously wanted to follow Rudy, but when she saw Allen sitting up from the ground in a very embarrassed manner, and confirmed that he was fine, she turned around and walked to Gileno's side as if possessed by a demon.
She subconsciously wanted to "ask for an explanation"!
I want to ask why!
She doesn't understand!
Whether from the perspective of swordsmanship or the fact that Alan was knocked away by a single sword strike, she was completely confused!
because.
So far, the label that Allen has left the biggest impression on her is——
powerful!
Whether it was the lightning-fast knife in the rain, or the scene of the other party returning with his head held high in the morning light, or the scene of him suddenly killing people when he returned to Boreas's mansion yesterday morning.
Even his grandfather, Sauros, who was once the most powerful man in his heart, was speechless.
Alan is strong!
Has she forgotten the fact of saving lives in the rain?
No.
But this feeling of gratitude was overshadowed by a more obvious 'powerful impression'.
The powerful facts are so impressive.
It's simply impossible to forget.
Let her worship it endlessly.
And aspire to be such a person.
This is exactly what she grew up with, imitating the "powerful" people around her, and then arming herself! Make herself powerful!
But.
Her knowledge of swordsmanship and her reason vaguely told her that Gileno might be stronger than Alan.
Because Gilene is king level.
And Alan is only at Saint level.
But in her strong intuitive sense, she still felt that Alan's figure was still very "powerful".
So it doesn't matter, both Allen and Gileno are very strong!
And everything that happened until this moment——
No matter what the Water God School's theoretical knowledge is, it is simply incomprehensible and abstruse.
Still facing Gileno's sword of light, he said arrogantly, "Just chop it down."
All fit this impression.
But just now.
This 'powerful' image.
It was chopped into pieces with a single blow from the equally powerful Gileno.
This made her subconsciously resist accepting the fact before her.
She couldn't accept that this man who had risen to the position she admired the most in just a few days was no longer powerful.
So she walked a few steps to Gileno, glanced at the broken sword left on the ground by Alan, and asked her doubts.
"What happened just now?! Why didn't Alan catch the Silent Sword? There was clearly no problem with the Light Sword!"
But Gilenu's answer stunned her.
"Alan is very strong."
Overestimating your typing speed
The next chapter is still being written
Chapter 147: When will the sword of light flash?
Alice was stunned for a long time, then suddenly came to her senses and looked up at Gileno's face with some anger.
Because she felt like she was being treated like a child.
Can enter the eyes.
Gileno's expression remained serious, and he squinted his eyes slightly as he looked at the four people talking in the distance.
His expression was very grim.
It reminded her of the harsh scene in which Gileno treated her during her sword-fighting class.
Gilenu's unique cold voice sounded again.
Still the same sentence.
"Alan is very strong."
She lowered her head and looked at Alice's face. After spending several years together, Gileno knew very well why Alice had such a reaction.
"Alice, what do you think of Allen in your heart?"
She chose her words carefully, paused for a moment, and continued.
".Disillusioned? So you can't accept it?"
Alice raised her brows.
"Huh? Disillusionment? What does that mean?"
"You think Alan is very powerful, but his performance just now did not meet your expectations, so you are very angry, aren't you?"
Rarely, the young lady choked and her face turned red. She wanted to refute, but was intimidated by Gileno's stern expression and could not utter a word for a long time.
The latter looked at Alice's expression and answered her doubts.
"Alan is very strong. You can keep this impression."
Alice breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, and then she listened to Gileno continue.
"He has a solid foundation in swordsmanship and has his own unique understanding of the Kenshin Style. This allows him to wield a unique Silent Sword, which I admire very much. I understand how you feel."
"But when he swung the Silent Sword for the first time just now, I was a little confused. Logically speaking, with the swordsmanship talent he has shown so far, even if his teacher is Paul, he should have been able to perfect the Silent Sword. But in fact, this is not the case."
"There is still room for improvement in his Silent Sword, especially his speed, which is not fast enough."
"This was beyond my expectations. I was very surprised."
"But there was one person on the field who was just as surprised as I was."
"Do you know who it is?"
Alice frowned and looked at Gileno.
"Huh? Who?"
Gilenu interrupted her question.
"It was Alan himself."
"Why is he surprised?"
"Because the fact that his Silent Sword slowed down was also beyond my expectation."
"As for the reason, I tested this in the subsequent competition, and it turned out to be true."
"He still used his previous habit of swinging the sword to block my blade with the Silent Sword, but failed. He could only hastily block with the Water God Style, which caused him to be accidentally blown away by my sword wind."
