It's not the protagonist, what does it matter if you are trapped in the Shura field

Chapter 590: The Battle between Sword Master and Sword Master
Five days later, a heavy rain swept through Melendal.

The heavy rain washed the outline of the city on the ground, splashing water mist on the armor of the moving knights, and the continuous roar could even be faintly heard by the people underground.

——Although that was probably an illusion.

It was just the sound of the drainage system pouring water into the sewer because the rain was too heavy.

But this did not prevent people from feeling the atmosphere of the rain. Many people stayed in the large accommodation area and listened quietly with their heads tilted. Thanks to the changes brought about in these days, people felt peace for the first time since the disaster, as if they were hiding in a cave to avoid the rain during an adventurous journey, and could not help but recall what had happened.

The significance of this rain may be greater than they thought.

The plan for ground construction has been finalized and we are just waiting for the rain to pass. After the rain stops, it will officially enter the implementation phase. Only residents who have stable jobs during this period will be eligible to apply.

In other words, the day when the residents of the royal city return to live on the ground may not be too far away.

At this time, in the underground knights' training hall.

The sound of swords clashing continued.

"Haha, that's really good...!"

Anaing swung her sword, creating a sharp gust of wind, and her figures flashed across the sky, leaving traces. In the chaos of rising snowflakes, even her figure could not be seen clearly.

The person who was under her sword and calmly blocked her attack with the sword in one hand was Viscount Ulysses.

Sword Master vs. Sword Master.

It was originally just a sparring match, and the knights watching from the side were all stunned.

Reading the various evolutions of the sword path in an instant, Ulysses dodged between dozens of sword energies attacking him, and the greatsword in his right hand scraped away the unparalleled sword light. In the golden sword light, Anaing swirled from the sky and swooped down. The two swords collided with each other in an instant, and the pressure alone was enough to make the surrounding knights unable to stand steadily.

Under the pressure of the greatsword, Ananing was pushed out, and she just stopped and slashed up again.

Ulysses dodged first and then slashed. Anaing struck three swords in succession and her figure flashed behind her. Ulysses turned around and raised his sword. Both of them lowered their bodies very low to take this extremely heavy blow.

The sword skill cut the ground into cracks several meters deep, and there was no trace of residue left after the slash. Every move and every style was an accomplishment beyond the realm of martial arts.

Rowe was watching this scene from the sidelines wearing a cloak.

The so-called Sword Saint is a human being who has practiced swordsmanship to the extreme, thus reaching the realm of being able to kill gods.

The corners of his mouth trembled.

I don't know how these two people met, but considering that white-haired idiot's nature of wanting to fight whenever he sees a master, it is natural for him to fight with the Viscount.

"Hehe... "Kuromi Ittoryu: Shinto Portable Carriage"!"

As her body turned instantly, An Ning cut through more than ten black slashes. The middle slash suddenly lit up, and the Viscount was knocked out with difficulty. He fought back with the sword wind that just brushed her cheek, and the next slash had already arrived.

The battles between sword masters are quite entertaining.

The way they exert their strength is still more at the "human" stage, so every move and every form is full of the beauty of strength, making the most of their physical abilities.

Being forced to retreat and regroup, Anan Ning swung her sword with a smile in her eyes. Facing a strong enemy, she would only think something like "You are really good", and then show her deeper attainments.

Her attack was more fierce than the Viscount's, and she had more changes and responses, but the Viscount was already in his 30s after all, and Anaining had only been a sword saint for a few years. It was not a false reputation for her to be able to sit in the top three of the Lion Garden.

But they are not competing to see who is stronger.

It's about the level of her sword moves. Ulysses has probably already seen that she can wield the sword so freely and at her current rate of growth, it's hard to imagine what her future will be like.

The two fought with swords at high speed, and the final slash was so powerful that it shook the wind pressure so much that all the knights around them fell to the ground.

"Oh my, it still doesn't work." Anaining took two steps away, holding the hilt of the knife and shook her head. "If you really want to fight me, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to defeat you now."

Ulysses also put away his sword.

He didn't say much, but just smiled with a serious expression. There was no need for him to judge the opponent's strength any further.

"Luo Wei, Luo Wei, it's your turn! Come and help me find a place!"

"Do not hit."

"Ah, why!"

Ignoring her complaints, after she calmed down and asked if there were any other challengers, Lowe watched Ulysses come up to him.

"So, Mr. Red Needle still insists on his own ideas?" Luo Wei asked casually.

"Um... yes." The Viscount nodded solemnly and turned his head to watch the knights' martial arts performance with him.

It seems that the battle between the two of them ended in nothing.

Ulysses' family is a famous swordsmanship family in Lion Garden. Unlike those people like Nigel who are only good for show, the Viscount's ancestors have always been the representatives of Lion Garden martial arts, and have produced many heroes who have turned the tide in times of crisis. However, they have never cared about power, and have chosen a path of consolidating the foundation of Lion Garden's national strength by teaching and promoting swordsmanship.

The reason why Lion Garden has so many SSS-level knights is not only because of its long heritage, but also because of the influence of the martial arts taught by the Beck Panga family.

This also explains why the nobles were disdainful of Rowe's swordsmanship. After all, most of them were in the lake city of Dolonbel and had received instruction at the Beck Panga family swordsmanship school.

"You will be leaving the capital soon, right?" Viscount Ulysses said in a deep voice.

"Why, do you want to plead for the Second Prince?" Luo Wei gave him a teasing look.

Ulysses shook his head.

"I have no right to interfere in the fights between royal families," he said in a deep voice, "I have heard about the recent anomalies on the continent. Solving the root cause of this series of phenomena should be the purpose of your trip."

It turned out to be the case.

Is that why you are willing to accept Anan Ning's challenge and see what you can do for them?

The Viscount was not of their generation. Although he was old-fashioned, he did not have the arrogance of a noble. Instead, he was open-minded and gave people the impression of a dignified but not rigid elder. Although he did not stand on the side of the five princesses, he had actually been helping them all along.

"You left a deep impression on me," Ulysses said, looking forward. "Not only are you very capable, but your problem-solving skills are not what you expect from someone your age. Actively resolving situations is a trap set by the other party, but you were able to keep going on your own path and ultimately turn the situation around. Your persistence is truly rare."

"I can't stand such praise from the Sword Master." Luo Wei shook his head in self-mockery.

However, there have been reports of strange phenomena coming from the mainland in recent days, and even a huge black shadow has been seen in the mine under the Wuguan City.

The next step is to wait for Lovely to finish dealing with matters in the royal capital.

"I'm afraid I don't have the qualifications to teach you more about swordsmanship," Ulysses closed his eyes, "Now that you've made up your mind, just do it. At least while you're away, I'll do my best to maintain the stability of the royal city."

"Perhaps nothing is more reassuring than this sentence." Luo Wei smiled.

With Ulysses in charge, there is indeed no need to worry about the safety of the royal city, and the Third World is also trying every means to exclude his involvement.

However, he disagreed with the other party's statement that he was not qualified to teach them. Apart from them, the knights of Sif and other generation under Lovely's command had been dreaming of such an opportunity.

At this moment, Luo Wei caught a glimpse of a figure from the corner of his eye.

After calling out to the other person, he just raised his head, quickened his pace and was about to leave the hall, his expression seemed a little flustered.

Luo Wei frowned. The other party's condition had been a little strange recently, but this was too abnormal. He stepped forward and blocked the other party's way to leave.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked.

Saya glanced at him in panic and hastily covered her side with one hand.

"Nothing! You…just leave me alone!"

How could I just ignore it?

Seeing that something was wrong with her, Luo Wei grabbed her wrist and pressed her against the wall. Saya was stunned and resisted violently, but he still touched her covered abdomen and she showed a painful expression.

Luo Wei also felt the pain. He raised his hand and saw that black smoke was coming out of his fingers, which required divine power to purify.

"What's going on?" he asked in a slower tone.

"No, it's no big deal!" Saya said with a grimace, "This kind of wound can be treated casually!"

This is not a wound that can be treated easily.

Luo Wei's expression darkened. He grabbed her wrist forcefully and dragged her into the lounge nearby. Shaye looked at the glances cast at her in shock as he pulled her all the way into the inner room of the lounge.

"Varied!"

After arriving at the inner room, Luo Wei removed her armor without hesitation. Shaye stubbornly refused to let him do it, but Luo Wei was stronger than her and was so tough that he left her no room to resist.

Saya couldn't persuade him in the end.

The clothes on the abdomen were torn open, and a black erosion wound appeared on the evenly-proportioned side, forming a sharp contrast with the color of the skin.

"You...what are you doing!" Saya said with a blushing face.

"I'm the one who was going to ask you what you were doing," Luo Wei said coldly, staring at the wound slowly, "How come you didn't say anything about this?"

"Who said I won't talk anymore!!" Shaye refuted strongly, "I just think it's no big deal, I'll go back and deal with it and then tell you about it!"

She probably didn't want them to know that she was injured.

Luo Wei knew that she had been accepting commissions from the Adventurer's Guild recently. After all, she had been avoiding him for a while. In addition to allowing her to adapt to her power after the promotion as soon as possible, he also wanted to eliminate the potential risks of Melendel before they left, so he did not stop her.

Does Melendel still pose this level of threat today?

"Bear with it."

Luo Wei did not give her the right to refute, and pressed down with the divine power accumulated in his hand.

Saya frowned and looked away with a stubborn look as if to say "Who wants you to care?"

Duplicitous guy.

Saya stood where she was, and Luo Wei removed the marks of erosion on her body bit by bit, and soon her original skin color was revealed. It seemed that the force of erosion only affected the surface under the protection of the divine power, but the pain penetrated deep into her bones, and even Luo Wei was shocked when he experienced it.

"What on earth happened to you?"

This feeling seemed vaguely familiar to him, so he stuck out his tongue and licked her wound.

Saya: “?!”

She stared at him in shock and anger.

"I was just testing whether there would still be pain," Rowe explained.

Saya raised her head in annoyance, "Stop licking me, you bastard! It's so slippery and disgusting."

Luo Wei stood up at this time. The two men, with a height difference of only five centimeters, were almost the same height when he leaned forward.

"..."

Saya turned her head away again in embarrassment.

Faced with his approach, she had no choice but to quickly get the matter out.

"I...I think I ran into Gui Wuhai's thing again."
