16, Agnes(1/2)
Under the gaze of the Treville couple, the boy and the girl fought happily.
The two of them waved their swords hard, and the pace under their feet continued for a moment, and the offense and defense were only changed in a blink of an eye.
They devoted themselves to the battle, and they were so selfless that they were completely selfless.
In Egron's eyes, the whole world had sunk into the darkness, and there was only a small area around him and his opponent in his eyes. As the sword blades hit again and again, he laughed unconsciously - he hadn't been so happy for a long time.
Why is he fighting?
In order to win, to prove one's skills, and to overwhelm those who dare to challenge themselves...
Besides that, he did not fight for any other purpose.
To him, it was almost a brand new experience to enjoy his own fun.
Maybe this is the preciousness of freedom.
The two of them were coming and going in the sword light and sabers, and they could not decide the outcome for a while.
Of course, this is purely a competition of skills. Although both of them are full of momentum to completely defeat their opponents, they have no murderous intentions, and they are not determined to die if they cannot win, so they are still somewhat restrained.
At first, they were a little lucky against their opponents and felt that they should be able to win quickly, but after the initial fight, they have now correctly realized the strength of their opponents, so they have become much more cautious.
At first, the stormy offensive rhythm had slowed down, but because they became familiar with each other's style, their sword drawing became more tricky and more difficult to deal with.
As time passed, the two men's physical strength also decreased rapidly, but Agron and Agnes still waved their swords, hoping that their opponent would fall before themselves.
Aegron only felt a little sore in his hands and his eyes began to become a little confused, but he did not retreat or fear. He gritted his teeth and continued to wave his sword, because he believed that his opponent's situation would be as uncomfortable as he did, even more uncomfortable than him.
The more uncomfortable he felt, the more aggressive he became. He stabbed his opponent in the chest, and then took a step forward as Agnes swung his sword to block it, and pressed down heavily.
You must fall down!
Agnes also refused to give in and stared at the young man fiercely without retreating.
Although her hands and steps were no longer as light as before, she still waved her sword and drove the opponent's sword, then stabbed towards his abdomen.
"Clang!"
The crisp metal sound resounded in the open space again, and Egron felt his hands numb.
"Stop!" At this moment, Alice shouted.
Alice had already seen that both of them were almost reaching their limits. She was afraid that if she continued to fight, she would lose control and cause a terrible tragedy - after all, the weapons they were holding were really capable of taking human life.
Her scream woke two people who were already excited.
Aegron reacted.
He remembered that he promised Alice that he would stop as long as she called.
Yes, it can end here too.
He took a few steps back and took the initiative to distance himself from Agnes. Agnes seemed to have the same thoughts as him, and also took a few steps in the opposite direction. The two ended their duel.
Aegron breathed a sigh of relief, then put down the sword in his hand.
Only then did he realize that his left hand was sore that he almost lost consciousness. He even suspected that he could not handle the tableware until dinner.
But it doesn't matter, he's very happy.
Although he was still a little unsatisfied, he was already satisfied enough.
He gasped, his chest constantly undulating, but he quickly recovered his control of his body, and then he looked up and confirmed Agnes's condition.
Sure enough, Agnes was also in a mess now. Although she was trying hard to hide her weakness, Agron clearly saw that her hands were shaking slightly, and she was breathing in a big mouth with difficulty.
Her skirt was already scattered, and the amber hairpin she was wearing just now had fallen to the ground at some point, making her long hair pouring into the back of her head like a waterfall.
Her eyes were still staring at her stubbornly, as if she wanted to prove that she could still win the competition.
It's still quite cute... He couldn't help but smile.
Before escaping Vienna, he duel with his teacher Captain Foresti. The two of them sacrificed their lives in the heavy snow. Finally, he sent the sword into the teacher's body with his own hands.
At that time, he could do whatever he wanted to win because he had only this path to go.
But now his mentality is different.
He was relieved and believed that he would be able to win in the end, but he felt that it had lost the meaning of the competition. In the end, as the body reached its limit, they could no longer restrain their scrupulousness, and there might be casualties.
It was not a life-and-death struggle. Since both sides had fun and Alice had already said to stop her, there was no need to continue.
"Miss Agnes, you are really amazing." Agnes put away his sword, then bowed to salute Agnes, "I have to admit that you have the same strength as me."
"I...I can win..." Agnes pouted stubbornly, but her slightly trembling voice had already revealed her weakness at this moment.
Aegron did not reply, but just looked at her with a smile.
After a moment, maybe Agnes herself felt guilty and had to lower her head, "Okay, you are really amazing, I admit that it's similar to me!"
Then she couldn't help laughing, picked up the umbrella from the ground, and then put the sword into the umbrella.
Then, she walked to the young man and looked at him curiously.
"It seems that you are not bragging. Only with the strength can you dare to say what you said just now..."
"Are I so untrustworthy in your heart?" Aegron couldn't help but smile and asked.
"No... Of course I don't mean that..." Agnes seemed a little embarrassed. "You also know that some frivolous guys in Paris like to brag the most. They obviously can't do anything but like to show off in front of others. There are several such people who have challenged me and taught me a lesson, so when I saw you say that, I thought you were the same..."
At this time, she had recovered, her breathing was smooth, and her hands were no longer shaking.
Aegron had to spread his hands, "Then I have proved now that I am different from them, right?"
"Yes, it's different, it's much more powerful." Agnes raised his left hand and raised his thumb to pay tribute to the young man. "I apologize to you, Mr. Meminggen, I hope you can forgive my offense generously~"
After saying that, she raised her head and looked at Egron pitifully.
Although she is very stubborn and has a strong personality, she is unwilling to admit defeat, on the other hand, she is quite open-minded and can take it and let go.
Since she said so, Egron certainly wouldn't care about such trivial matters.
But he was in a good mood at this time and couldn't help but want to tease him.
"Do you want to pass on the humiliation of my personality in just a few words?" He deliberately put on a stern face.
"Then how do you want to be satisfied?" Agnes was a little anxious.
"I want you to stand in place and not move for ten seconds, and use this as a punishment." Aegron said word by word, "this way I will forgive your fault."
"Is that all?" Agnes was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing again, "Okay, then I won't move."
After saying that, she immediately fulfilled the agreement and stood there steadily.
Aegron walked forward and lowered his head and rushed towards her.
"Hey!" Agnes was shocked.
As the surprise came with anger, her body tensed up instantly, and then she held the umbrella in her hand tightly.
Although her hands are still very sore now, it is still not difficult to swing the sword again to defend.
Just as she was about to swing her sword and cut off this shameless guy, she was shocked to find that the young man was not rushing toward her, but at her feet.
Then she clearly discovered that the young man bent down and picked up an object from the grass.
The golden amber stone is shining with a lubricating luster in the sun.
——Isn’t this my hairpin??Agnes realized at this time that she had just dropped this thing in the battle.
Then, while she was still stunned, Egron had already stood in front of her, and then, as if she had given her a crown, put the hairpin she had just dropped on the ground again on her head.
It only took him a few seconds, so he had a few seconds left... Of course, he did nothing, just stood quietly in front of him, waiting for the passage of time.
Agnes seemed to be at a loss during this period, with surprise and hesitation in her eyes, and a little anger at the prank, but she finally decided to keep her promise, and she never moved, and her originally tight body relaxed.
Maybe it took only a few seconds, or maybe it took a long time, Egron nodded to Agnes with a smile.
"Ten seconds have arrived, Miss Agnes."
"You are really good at joking!" Agnes finally spoke, and she glared at the young man fiercely.
"This is the compensation I have the right to ask for, isn't it?" Egron replied with a smile. "You have just made a promise, and I have not done anything that has harmed you-"
Agnes was a little embarrassed, but she did not retort, just frowned and stared at the other person.
She had discovered that although she could be equal to the other party if she was fighting the sword, her ability was indeed far inferior to her when it came to debate, so she gave up her plan to bicker with him.
"Okay, I'm very happy today... In fact, I haven't been so happy for a long time." Aegron nodded to the other party again, "I thank you, I hope I will have the opportunity to enjoy the same fun again in the future-"
"I'm very happy, I haven't tried it so happily in a long time." Agnes's anger disappeared, and he agreed with the young man's words.
Then, she changed her subject, "You are so powerful, you must have been given guidance from famous teachers. Can you tell me who your teacher is? Of course, if you don't want to disclose it, I won't ask, it's just to satisfy your curiosity."
"Captain Foresti." Aegron answered directly without any hesitation.
Anyway, there is nothing to hide in this kind of thing.
"Is it that Austrian?" Agnes was a little surprised.
"You actually know him?" Aegron was even more surprised.
He originally thought the captain was just an ordinary Austrian officer. Agnes had no reason to hear his name, but he didn't expect to miscalculate it.
To be continued...
