Volume 2: Boundless Walker Chapter 71: Strive to be absolutely sure!

Bang!

When Goethe and Art exchanged punches, and the latter took a step back with his hands clenched in a grimace, Goethe raised an eyebrow - although both sides were competing, they both stopped at a certain point.

Goethe did not use many secret techniques or breathing methods.

Art also didn't use the 'Warrior' technique.

It's a confrontation of [bodies].

There is no doubt that Goethe's "body" still has the upper hand over Art after he has been baptized three times.

Art is not a fake. He has completed three baptisms, although not three extreme baptisms, but he has completed one.

Therefore, Goethe was able to assess his own and Kendalls's strengths in more detail.

In fact, in the previous punch, one-third of Goethe's preparations for the decisive battle were completed again.

It was only when Art suddenly threw another punch that Goethe responded.

But it is different from the previous powerful force.

This time, as soon as Art's fist touched Goethe, he felt that it had no power.

Not weakness.

But...

Stop the effort.

This puzzled Goethe.

Facing Goethe's doubts, Art was full of admiration.

"You are so strong...!"

Art wanted to find a more appropriate word to describe it, but after thinking for a long time, he chose to use the most direct one.

Moreover, after saying this, the admiration on the face of the Grand Duke's fourth guard captain disappeared, leaving only a trace of pain and a glance at Silin from the corner of his eyes.

Silin, who was standing aside, had a look of helplessness on his face.

Silin, the ninth captain of the Grand Duke's Guard - with the return of 'Gerjil' a day ago, the ninth captain also appeared in the camp.

Unlike Art's armor and long sword, this lady wore a long robe and a hood. Although she had a rapier at her waist, the staff in her hand, which was more than one meter tall, was more eye-catching.

He had orange hair, eyebrows, deep eyes, and a gentle face, but when he first changed from his 'Gergeel' appearance back to his own appearance, Goethe was shocked.

Because, before this, Goethe did not recognize the other person's true identity.

Heartbeat, smell.

There are absolutely no flaws.

Appearance and expression?

It is exactly the same as Gejier.

At the same time, Goethe also learned about the other party's "occupation" after three baptisms: sorcerer!

Goethe was naturally curious about the new profession that appeared before him.

But it’s different from Art, who is a bit outgoing.

Silin somewhat avoids Goethe.

In other words, Silin is not used to talking to strangers.

But to our own people?

Silin, however, was quite tolerant.

After seeing Art in pain and shaking his hands, Silin raised his hand and scattered a light.

A faint glow enveloped Art.

By the way, Goethe is also included.

Goethe could clearly feel his strength recovering.

And Art?

He gave Silin a silly smile.

The rough face of the fourth captain of the Grand Duke's Guard immediately became a little silly.

Under such a gaze, Silin smiled at Goethe, bowed politely, and turned to leave - as the other party left, an invisible barrier was broken.

This is a barrier set up to prevent prying eyes.

Art wanted to chase after him, but he didn't dare.

Finally, he scratched his head and looked at Goethe with a wry smile.

Goethe rolled his eyes.

At this time, Goethe had already seen what Art was trying to do.

Get close to Silin under the pretext of being injured.

Looks like a good approach.

Unfortunately, Silin saw through it.

"Do you think I'm a coward?"

The fourth captain of the Grand Duke's Guard asked.

Goethe nodded without hesitation.

Immediately, Art glared, but then sighed.

"I fell in love with Silin when I first met her 20 years ago. Did you know that Silin at that time used a stick to kill a group of bandits and saved me, a reckless person."

"At that time, I had already completed my first baptism, but I accidentally fell into a trap and became paralyzed. Those guys hung me on a tree and prepared to rip me open."

"When the dagger had already touched my skin, Silin appeared."

"Instantly, the world became bright..."

Art sat aside and chatted with Goethe.

Goethe listened with great interest.

It's not gossip, just pure curiosity.

Then, there was an unexpected gain -

"Are you saying that I'm too cowardly because I've been secretly in love with Silin for 20 years but didn't dare to confess my feelings?"

"It's not that I don't want to..."

"I don't dare!"

"She is a natural born sorcerer - she doesn't need baptism to become a powerful professional!"

"Plus, as the years go by, her bloodline becomes richer and richer, and it will only get stronger!"

"And me?"

“Even if I have done my best to complete the baptism three times, my potential has already reached its limit. It is impossible for me to advance again. It may not be obvious now, but as time goes by and I grow old and weak, I may not even be able to hold a sword!”

Art was saying something that Goethe didn't know.

"A natural born warlock?"

"Well, a natural born warlock!"

"Some second-level professionals, or even descendants of higher-level professionals, are born extraordinary—they are called warlocks!"

"It is said that Silin's father was a nobleman from Fabol. He met Silin's mother by chance, but abandoned them when Silin's mother was pregnant. Damn, those Fabol nobles are just a bunch of cocks in heat!"

Art became angry as he spoke and hammered the stone beside him.

Bang!

The stone cracked directly.

But the fourth captain of the Grand Duke's Guard was still indignant.

" Sooner or later I'll go to Faber and find that bastard and hang him up and give him five thousand lashes."

"You might as well just kill him."

"That was too easy for him. You don't know how Silin was at that time. Not only did she hate men, she couldn't even laugh. I was beaten 267 times for trying to make Silin laugh. That was the first time I saw Silin laugh."

"If it weren't for this bastard, would I have been beaten so many times?"

Art argued convincingly.

Then, the subject changed.

"So, Goethe, don't misunderstand Silin. It's not that she doesn't want to pay attention to you, she just doesn't know how to get along with you."

“She is a really nice person!”

Goethe nodded wisely again.

Art immediately started laughing and continued his long-winded description.

Goethe remained silent.

It's best not to say anything to a man who is so lost in himself.

At this time, you can appreciate the magic of love.

But his efforts cannot be denied.

otherwise……

You may not even have friends.

Goethe, who knew this well, listened for an hour.

Afterwards, the topic of 'Silin' ended with a smile on Art's face and a motivated sentence - 'I will definitely be able to move her'.

"That guy Kendills' sword is very fast!"

"But with your physique, Master Goethe, as long as you can curb his speed, that guy won't have anything to worry about. You can kill him with one punch!"

Art talked about the topic that Goethe cared about most.

"How fast is his sword?"

Goethe asked.

“I can’t explain it.”

"I haven't really fought him, but when he fought with 'Six' before, he remained undefeated for ten moves - of course, Six didn't use his full strength, and his hands were intact at that time."

"Although Skus once commented on him, saying..."

"Kendilers has the potential to advance from a 'swordsman' to a 'swordsman'."

"But that was before!"

"Now?"

"I guess he only has one arm left, and it's been wasted for so long, half, no, one-third of his strength would be good!"

Skus, the first captain of the Grand Duke's Guard, is also the strongest one in the Grand Duke's Guard.

At this moment, he is accompanying the Grand Duke to the border. He is the best guard beside the Grand Duke and the guardian knight of the "Ke Family".

"A second-level professional?"

Goethe murmured softly.

Goethe did not comment on Art's optimism .

He always thinks about defeat before thinking about victory.

It is a habit to prepare for a rainy day.

Especially under certain conditions.

Involuntarily, Goethe's eyes turned to the Mad King's Ring on the index finger of his left hand.

Tomorrow at sunrise will be the day of the duel.

The 'secret realms' of the three dim stars have all cooled down.

White Star has a cooldown period of [46 days, 15 hours, 00 minutes].

In addition to these four secret realms, gray stars also appeared in front of Goethe.

[Yes/No Consume 10,000 gold grams to enter the secret realm? ]

…

Goethe simply chose no.

He has no money.

Moreover, when this gray star was able to enter, Goethe felt inexplicably palpitating.

As his heart became stronger, Goethe trusted in his own intuition.

He knew that he would be in great danger if he entered the gray star at this stage, just like the joy that came from the bottom of his heart when he looked at the white star.

The 'secret realm' represented by the white star is what he needs most.

Unfortunately, the cooldown time is too long.

As a last resort, Goethe looked at the three dim stars.

Just like the previous entry, it still consumes 500 gold grams.

This relieved Goethe, who was worried about some additional conditions.

He now had 1750 gold grams, 6 silver strings, and 5 and a half copper coins, including 1000 gold grams borrowed from Sheila and 300 gold notes from Swart, which were enough for him to re-enter the "secret realm" of the three dim stars.

So the question is?

Which one should I start with?

The right choice is half the success.

Goethe had tried divination before.

However, the mysterious elements of the 'Anchor World' are too strong, and the [Shadow Snake Tail Devouring Technique] is completely ineffective.

"My purpose for entering the 'Secret Realm' remains basically the same, it is still [Bloody Honor]!"

"If possible, complete more of the conditions required for the baptism ceremony!"

"That place is like a 'wasteland' filled with madness. There are too many uncertainties. Let's give up first!"

"This city is full of mysteries and manifests itself in urban legends. When he finally left, he made too much noise and might cause unnecessary trouble. And his nominal adoptive father, just hearing his name makes me feel that he will cause even greater trouble!"

"It is Hessetins, who was the first to wear the vest of Poirot Marple, who is much safer. Although there are still some remnants, the general direction has been solved. In addition, Poirot Marple is also a royal adviser, Andinand has inherited the title of Grand Duke, and little Graz has become the king. It seems that it will be easier to enter here again."

"Moreover, [Bloody Honor] is a legacy of the Dark Dynasty. The treasure houses of the royal families of various countries must contain [Bloody Honor]!"

After divination lost its effect, Goethe began to analyze rationally.

Finally, in the final third of preparation for the duel, Goethe chose to return to the 'secret realm' he had entered the first time.

Shaking off the dust on his body, Goethe headed towards the camp.

"Goethe, what are you doing?"

Art was stunned.

"Have a meal!"

Since we are going on a long journey, we naturally need a good meal.

Especially when I think of the cooking skills of a certain maid at 11 Kimmel Street...

Goethe frowned slightly.

He suddenly felt that his analysis had missed a crucial point.

Therefore, when Goethe chose to enter this 'secret place', it was already dark in the 'anchor world'.

Hesitated for hours.
