Chapter 90
93 Strengths of Laemier
In team matches, the game time is set at 20 minutes per game.
We have not received each other’s warnings or other derogations, and if we are not settled here, there is a 10-minute extension.
Still, if we don’t settle the game, it’s a draw.
The northern quarters, which had three wins as their goal, but in fact one game is supposed to fulfill their goal even in the draw.
If the number of wins between the two was the same, it was the rule that the general would win better.
The opponent, Raimier, strikes this way moderately, but doesn’t strike deep against the gap he showed.
That’s the same thing you’re giving up winning. Yet why can you keep fighting with a cheerful face?
The reason was obvious.
Kerio and Laemier flirt as they hang out violently.
“I see, you understand you can’t win, draw aim? Quite a sensible operation.”
Kerio’s most adept counter.
This works the more you are willing to beat your opponent. Because by tilting your power toward the attack, you create a gap in your defense.
But you make it look like you’re attacking and you’re concentrating on defense, which is not so easy to decide.
“But I’ll tell you it’s a sweet idea!
A speeding horizontal giraffe strikes Raimier.
Laemier defended it aggressively, but the timing was too short.
“I’m certainly the best at counter tactics, but I’m not too bad at attacking from myself either!
Kerio’s onslaught strikes Laemier. Raimier takes that desperately.
“I thought if you only thought about defense, you could bring it into the draw, etc. You guys are stupid!
Kerio goes to finish Laemier off. Even if they seal the counter, they won’t lose to players like this.
I don’t care if they leave me with the Ridgels now, I’ll catch up and show them all.
That was his pride.
Contrary to that, however, the game was prolonged.
(Gu…, stiff…! Besides, it’s hard to attack……! Because of those big strand steps…… The time changes to corny!
Kerio hunts down Laemier to a good spot, but he can’t finish him off with a rind.
When in danger, he moves his legs wide apart and Kerio’s attacks don’t continue.
Kerio himself is only a mighty and handsome player. But Raimier isn’t a slow player either, and there’s not much difference in speed.
It was harder than I could imagine if I could escape over there, where I’d earn a lot of distance with my big crotch, even though this one maintains an intermission while stepping in detail.
Above all, Raimier’s defensive skills were better than Kerio had assumed.
Kerio’s attack, which he said could easily be defeated by an unnamed athlete, is prevented, albeit on a piece of paper.
The moment you rest your hand on the attack, Raimier hits you here.
Kerio took it.
(Knock… again…!
Besides, don’t let them warn you, they’ll strike a sword at the clearance of this attack.
It’s a powerless attack that I’m not willing to defeat. So there is no making to defend. But the deviation is the same for the other person. I am ready to defend myself immediately even if I fight back.
I’m just showing the referee my willingness to attack.
It was taken more firmly than I could have imagined.
Kerio first noticed it at this time.
The boys in the north quarters watching the game said proudly as they watched the game.
“We’ve been practicing! No matter how much Kerio, you can’t do it that easy!
“It was really tough. For two minutes at a time, we’re even going to do everything we can!
“Well, Raimier would have been tougher.”
Each and every one has no strength like Kerio. Apprentice knights.
Still, they did their best to hit Laemier for two minutes at many times the usual pace to make the practice assumed against Kerio, replicating the situation of a match with a powerful man like Kerio by taking turns doing it for 10.
Thanks to this, Laemier’s defensive technology lagged dramatically.
At the same time I practiced putting my hands out while defending against being warned again. The apprentice knights, who were very inconceivable, such as defense, even continued their encouragement practice, saying that to recreate an attack like Kerio, they had to concentrate their consciousness only on the attack with all their might, so that everything felt painful being struck by a Lemier wooden sword, but that they didn’t even care about Lemier, who looked sorry every time they hit him.
The bruises on their arms and shoulders are a testament to the actors who are able to create the current state of war.
The knights coming to watch the game also looked a little surprised by this situation.
Kerio is not as famous as the Ridgels, but he is quite a well-known newcomer. Sometimes they are anonymous, and I thought they would settle early.
But other than that, it’s been a long antagonistic game. Of course it’s Kerio who dominates, but his attacks are also hard to determine.
“It’s been some heat battle…”
“Good luck with that Raimier.”
A bunch of knights who came because they were on vacation somehow. They were purely surprised at the unfolding of the game, which they had not anticipated, especially when they watched either of them without backing up.
When they were each saying their thoughts on the game, one of the knights with them went with the face of not falling into the province.
“Something’s moving too much in this game, isn’t it?
“Huh?”
To the other knights who visited them so that they did not know what they were talking about, the knight who said the words fingered the arena.
“I was fighting on the right end of the venue, and I’m already fighting on the left.”
If you told me so, I would have.
The two fiercely crossing swords were on the right from where the captains were sitting until just now, but they’re already on the left. And in front of their watching, they exchanged swords. Now they moved up to the top right. Besides, it’s mazugu.
“What is this…”
“Why are you moving around so much…?
A voice of doubt leaked out of the knights’ mouths.
As we do so, the game will be prolonged and will be stopped once and for all by the voice of the referee.
Twenty minutes had passed at some point.
Go in for an extension.
When we return to the starting point of the match with each other, the extended battle begins with the “Getting Started” signal.
(Damn…… I didn’t know it would take long to extend the fight…… But I’ll sink you in here)
Kerio thought so, trying to jump at his opponent with the signal of the start of the extended battle.
But my knees flutter gawdly.
(What…!?
Step on a foot that doesn’t know what happened and doesn’t go against your will.
At that moment, Laemier’s blow struck Kerio.
“Gu……!
Heavy……!
An attack with a solid weight on it, unlike an attack that is only in its pre-extension form. Kerio’s arm trembled.
Then two, three shots, Raimier punches his sword in here.
(Stupid……! I am laggier in my movements……!?
The target’s attack is heavy. Defense is delayed and the opponent’s sword approaches close to his body.
The only reason to feel heavy about the attack was the change of will on the part of Raimier.
My body is dull…… Doesn’t work the way I thought. Kerio’s body was clearly experiencing a loss of physical performance.
(No way my health……!? No, the extension has just begun. In the first place, I’ve never been tired and lost)
Kerio was also a mighty man. Besides, I work out quite a bit. Even my strength was more than the crowd. You have enough health to fight for just 30 minutes, including an extension. Yet……
There were no other words that could explain this state.
This one struck in an attack that felt heavy, and his opponent, Laemier, laughed again as he lashed hard together.
“We ran around the venue all the time during the game. You must be just tired.
“No way……!
For the first time since that was said, Kerio noticed the aim of Raimier’s big crotch of steps.
The greater the step, the greater the distance traveled. And the distance Kerio traveled when he met his sword.
If you move frequently in that state, your health drain will no longer compare to your usual game.
Kerio, who insulted his opponent as anonymous and obsessed with defeating him, could not imagine how much he had been run.
Kerio was caught up in a maneuver to cut Laemier’s health.
But still, there were things Kerio wasn’t convinced of. It’s Laemier’s move now. The opponent should have been running until just now under the same conditions. No, for what I was directing this one, the other should be more drained.
Raimier’s body was sweaty with this one. Obviously depleting health. Yet the sword still had power.
Lemier talks to answer the questions in Kerio’s mind.
“I’m only good at long distances. You can’t beat anyone if you’re in a physical battle…!
Running in the current north quarters, Raimier was # 1.
Gollms was also trying hard at first, but in that big body, he wasn’t up for a long walk and had given up his top seat quite a while ago.
More and more of Lemier’s running grades have grown since then, and now he’s at the top of the line, dramatically pulling Golms apart even in his northern quarters.
In other words, the strongest endurance in the northern quarters is Laemier.
That’s why the Raimiers organized the operation.
Lemier takes advantage of his anonymity and shows him that he’s only a big step during normal game time, moving his opponent even at that step and draining his stamina. Conscious around the defense to avoid being hit at the counter, he even uses his running time to bring it into a protracted battle while also standing around mixing attacks to avoid being warned.
I thought it was a draw aim, and it also acted as a big advantage that the opponent got murky.
And by the time his opponent’s stamina was running out in the extension, Raimier used his high endurance to attack all at once.
“Gu…… damn…… stupid! This is me being pushed…!
Kerio screams incredibly as he is pushed by Raimier’s attack.
“Let me just correct one thing you said during the game.”
Same as before the extension, no faster. Raimier laughed every time as he attacked with movement.
“I’m willing to win from the start!
The formation was completely reversed.
Kerio, who almost ran out of stamina and blunted his movements. Raimier that uses more than the same stamina but can still move.
I don’t think I’ve been running for a long time. A series of attacks strikes Kerio.
“Damn……! Can we lose here!
Kerio also sprinkles his last powers and meets with Raimier.
The extension also saw more intense heat battles than ever before.
And 10 minutes later, the outcome of the game is determined.
“Draw!”
In the end, there was no winning or losing.
When the end of the game was announced, both Kerio and Raimier had a rough breath.
The expression contrasted. Kerio looks blue and relieves himself that the game is over. Raimier with a remorseful face even though he was almost there.
In fact, if I had had had a little more time, Raimier might have won.
Over time, Kerio ran out of strength, because he managed to hold on with a lot of skill. Meanwhile, Laemier didn’t slow down until the end.
When we thank each other and shake hands silently, we return to each other’s seats.
Raimier returned to everyone in the northern quarters, smiling softly as usual, apologizing with a bit of sorrow.
“I’m sorry. We were almost there.”
“No, no, that was amazing!
“Yeah, yeah! Kerio, it’s enough to get that far!
Naturally, there’s nothing to attack Raimier. He fought hard and fine.
Everyone has a delightful and bright look at the results of Laemier’s battle.
And most importantly, he brought the overly sufficient result of the draw to the northern quarters.
The game was brilliantly connected to Golms.
