Freya took a breath and walked to the competition platform. This 10x10 square stone platform was specially built for today's competition. It is one and a half meters high from the ground. Whether she falls off the platform or voluntarily admits defeat, she will be declared a loser. Previously
Freya has already won two games, but the opponents become more and more powerful as she goes to the back. To be honest, she is not confident that she can continue to move forward.
Freya couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when she thought of this. Brando sent her here to make her stronger so that she could protect everyone in the village. But now she can't be said to have done this at all, even like those monsters
Compared with other geniuses, even her original confidence has been weakened a lot.
Freya raised her sword. This time her opponent was a senior college student. Nymesis watched from the side as usual, but when she saw Freya's state, she couldn't help but frown.
"You can't win by being absent-minded." The senior college student also saw this and couldn't help but remind him.
Freya was shocked and immediately retracted her mind. She raised her head, and for a moment, everything she saw in front of her overlapped with that in her dream. The red earth stretched endlessly under her feet, and her opponent also turned into the burning figure.
The knight on fire.
She couldn't help shaking her head in panic, trying to get rid of this illusion. But her opponent had already drawn his sword and came towards her. Freya was startled and couldn't help but think of the scene in her dream——
At this moment, she had completely forgotten the essence of swordsmanship, and could only think of subconsciously retreating to avoid it.
There was a burst of laughter in the stands. Apart from the nobles, the people present were also college students. They had never seen anyone fleeing in panic on the playing field.
"Freya, what are you doing!" Nymesis couldn't help but frown and shouted in a low voice.
But at this moment, Freya's forehead suddenly flashed with a white light, and a pair of light wings stretched out from behind her and knocked away the long sword in the hands of the college student with a 'ding' sound.
"what is that!"
Beside the princess, several important ministers stood up. The scene on the field before happened to fall in their eyes. They saw a flash of white light and the long sword in the hand of the senior college student flew out. And it wasn't over yet. They just heard "buzz"
' There was a soft sound, and like a resonance, a white light suddenly rose in the distance of the college.
"That's the direction of Yusong River!" Someone among the nobles immediately recognized it.
Before he finished speaking, everyone saw the rising white light suddenly deflect in mid-air and draw a long arc straight towards the college.
"This...this is..."
In full view of everyone, the white light fell vertically on the competition field, in front of Freya. Then the white light disappeared, revealing the true form of a long stone sword stuck on the ground.
Not to mention other people at this moment, even the person involved was petrified. Freya didn't know what was happening at all. She only felt that the sword in front of her seemed to be calling her, and the voice was so kind, just like Bran
A lot of gentle words of encouragement.
But Freya's heart was pounding at this moment, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.
There was silence in the arena for a while, and there was no sound——
"F, Freya, you, there is a strange pattern on your forehead——!" But Freya suddenly heard Tisha's voice calling her from below. She subconsciously touched her forehead, and there was a kind of thorn.
Feeling the pain, I put my hand down and saw that it was all covered in blood.
Injured? How could it be? The girl clearly remembered that the long sword seemed to fly away in a flash of white light on her body before. She was not approached at all, so how could she be injured? She couldn't help but raise the bright long sword in her hand to shine.
Looking at his forehead, he discovered that there was a beautiful azure emblem on his forehead.
"What...what is this?"
Of course Freya didn't know that this pattern had a well-known name in Brando's past game world - the Valkyrie War Pattern.
This is the testimony of the glory that Martha gave her throughout her life, the mark of faith in the hearts of all Eruin players, and the beacon and flag of Eruin.
But she didn't notice it at this moment, she just felt at a loss. She raised her head with some fear, but met Nimesis's dark and calm eyes: "Pick up that sword, it belongs to you, Fu
Rhea."
There was a hint of indescribable complexity in Nymesis' expression at this moment, but her first words were said so firmly.
Freya was startled.
Nymesis nodded to her again, and the girl took a breath. She raised her head and looked around. Everyone seemed to be holding their breath waiting for her next move. She hesitated for a moment, and then she mustered up the courage to approach the place.
A stone sword.
She held her hand on the hilt of the sword, feeling cold at the beginning, and then gently lifted it up.
Then a miracle happened——
Everyone saw countless rays of golden light emitting from the stone sword, and then the pieces of rock covering the sword fell away, revealing a golden long sword inside. The sword was more than three feet long, and the guard seemed to be open.
With two wings and the lion's heart emblem protecting it, the whole sword is as brilliant as if it were made of gold.
"Lion Heart Sword——!" Beside the princess, her teacher, the old man whom everyone in Eruin respected, couldn't help but shout out in surprise.
"No, it's not the real Lionheart Sword. It's different from the description. It seems like some rules have changed." The half-elf princess seemed much calmer, but she looked at the sword in Freya's hand, and there was something in her eyes.
Flashing with indescribable light.
"The previous movement seemed to be the awakening of the bloodline, right?" She immediately turned back and asked Overwell behind her.
"It seems so."
"The bloodline of the Everton family is indeed not that simple. Please pay more attention to her."
"Just relying on the Lion's Heart Sword is enough." Overwell replied: "Speaking of which, the Lion's Heart Sword appears in the south and recognizes its owner. Now those Yankees should panic."
"But we have to make sure that the little girl is on our side first." A noble asked worriedly: "If the Lion Heart Sword falls into the hands of outsiders..."
"Don't worry, Freya is a simple girl, I believe she will be on our side." Griffin glanced at him lightly and replied.
"yes."
Overwell looked at Her Royal Highness the Princess, as if there was some kind of wisdom that could see through everything, as if he was asking: Are you really on the side of 'us', Her Royal Highness the Princess?
The half-elf princess slowly calmed down and could only smile bitterly in her heart. She thought of the figure of the young knight in the story. Indeed, even she could not see whose hands the future destiny of Eruin was in.
clear--
Griffin looked at the sword in Freya's hand and couldn't help but wonder, is this the punishment that Lady Martha gives to everyone for breaking their oaths?
But why can he be spared?
…
"Lord Nimesis..."
The expressionless female knight turned back and looked at Freya who took the initiative to stop her. She tilted her head as if to ask: What's the matter?
"This, this sword...?" Freya felt as if she was still dreaming. The sword in her hand was definitely not an ordinary weapon, but why did this sword come to her? She is still a little uneasy.
"This is your thing." Nymesis replied.
"But... this is inevitable..." When Freya thought of the legend of the Lion Heart Sword, her heart started to pound. She was a pure Eruin who grew up listening to those stories, and when she thought of those
Everything that happened in the legendary story was actually connected to her. Whether it was the late Lord Ekko or the Lionheart Sword, she felt that it was too unreal.
"Freya, I used to know a girl who is similar to you. She is as stubborn and strong as you, and she also has her own ideals." Nymesis looked at the girl and suddenly said: "I was still young at that time, and I have always been very stubborn.
I admire her, I remember she had a sword, similar to yours."
"Huh?" Freya was stunned.
"That sword is sharper than this sword, but not as firm as this sword," Nymesis said: "I think this sword is more suitable for you, Freya. Maybe one day it can change everything.
"
"What, what do you mean? I don't quite understand what you say, Lady Nimesis..."
"I mean, don't you give it a name?"
"But it is the Lion Heart Sword."
"That was Ekko's Lionheart Sword, but it's not anymore."
"Then what do you think it should be called better? I, I don't have the talent for naming." Freya couldn't help but said a little embarrassed.
For a moment, Nymesis felt that the Lionheart Sword in the girl's hand must be crying. But she shook her head, sighed and replied: "Let's call it Amber."
"amber?"
"Well, Amber, the Amber Sword. There is such a sword in the Cangzhi Poem of the Cruz people. It is the legendary holy sword, and it is also the only sword among all holy swords that allows the holder to fight against fate.
"Nimesis replied seriously: "The last owner of the Amber Sword was the legendary Azure Knight, the man who penetrated the sky, caused the stars to fall to the ground, and ushered in the second era..."
Freya held the long sword in her hand and nodded with some understanding: "I understand, Amber, it sounds really good."
The expressionless female knight suddenly felt that Freya was telling the truth when she said that she had no talent for naming, but she shook her head and turned around without stopping after saying that.
"Wait, Lady Nymesis," Freya stopped her again: "Well, what happened next...?"
"later?"
"I'm sorry, I was talking about the girl you said was very similar to me. What happened next?"
"Later?" Nymesis glanced at Freya and smiled slightly: "There was no later -"
"How is that possible!" Freya couldn't help but widen her eyes.
But it’s true that there is no future——
Brando, who was walking in the jungle, suddenly felt a little palpitated. He subconsciously touched the stone slab in his arms. The stone slab was vibrating at a slight frequency.
"What's wrong?" The tree elf Quinir noticed something unusual about him and turned around to ask.
"Nothing." Brando shook his head.
It was the Lion Heart Sword, but how could the Lion Heart Sword send a message to him at this time? It had been several months since the last time. The feeling just now was a bit strange, but it seemed like some kind of message to conclude a contract. Bran
Duo felt a familiar atmosphere from the other side, even a little friendly.
This feeling is so strange, let alone now, he has never heard of it even in the game.
But now he can only suppress these thoughts, because the centaur who opened the way in front cut off a thorn with a clatter, and then an open hilly area unfolded in front of him——
"Here we are." Brando took a deep breath.
He raised his hand and asked all the elves and mercenaries behind him to stop - the land in front of him was the territory of this legendary young man, and everyone's eyes stayed on Brando.
The farce that happened in Tonigel will come to an end at this moment.
