In a word, Mordred's swordsmanship is a very exaggerated practical skill.
In the confrontation with the Chimera, you can see Mordred flying up and kicking the enemy many times, or raising his charming eyes of sand, or throwing his sword, etc., which does not look like a knight at all. Play style.
Before meeting Mordred, Yagi Sekisai's impression of knights came entirely from novels and games. Knights were always described as noble and tough warriors, and their movements were simple but formal martial arts. In the game, Generally speaking, knights are defensive characters with simple swordsmanship or skills and are known for their high defense power, which is somewhat of a stereotype.
Mordred completely subverted this impression.
If the knights in Yagi Seksai's previous impression were mountains, lakes, and things that gave people a sense of stability and calm, then Mordred was the flames, and they were exaggerated flames that could burn down mountains and forests.
Mordred made full use of his mobility advantage, quickly passing through the enemy's side, using his sharp sword to cause damage to the enemy. He was not in a hurry to defeat the enemy with one move. Pain and bleeding draw opponents apart.
The swordsmanship is rough. If Mordred's sword was removed and replaced with an ax, there would be no sense of inconsistency at all. Her fighting style is simply like a berserker.
However……
"Very valuable reference, Mordred. He is indeed a Knight of the Round Table!"
This is Yagi Xuesai's heartfelt thought. Although she will not teach others, this rough swordsmanship is very useful as a reference and is very suitable for people like Yagi Xuesai who have no foundation in swordsmanship.
In fact, Mordred's swordsmanship is not the result of "training", but "actual combat". She pays more attention to the actual combat effect, that is, "killing the target" than being strict, formal and beautiful. For the current For Yagi Xuesai, this kind of swordsmanship is more suitable.
"Uh-huh! What did you say with a serious look on your face?"
Mordred seemed a little shy, but her face was more proud. She puffed up her chest and let out a great breath. As if to cover up her emotions, she bumped Yagi with her elbow. chest.
"Isn't it natural for me to be so strong?"
She felt more and more that this retinue was quite good. At least he would worship her with such a respectful tone without being too rigid.
When she was in the Knights of the Round Table, most of the Knights of the Round Table looked down upon her, but the ordinary knights below respected her and feared her to the point of being a bit rigid, which made her feel very boring. This was the first time she met someone like Yagi Yukisai, who seemed to respect her very much. Himself, yet he doesn't care at all about the person who talks to him in a relaxed and chatting tone.
Mordred looked up at the sun...
"...Wow! Finals! I completely forgot about it!"
She grabbed her hair with both hands and looked regretful.
"He also said that he must compete with the dragon slayer this time..."
There was a feeling in her tone that she had fought against Siegfried before.
"Have you ever met?"
"Hmm... I have a bit of an impression. I probably saw it once in the previous Holy Grail War. Well, whatever!"
Mordred thought about it for a while, but couldn't recall the specific details, so he just gave them a quick comparison.
"Mordred, it's better to remember something important like this."
On the side, Boudica whispered to her, and these words of concern caused an impatient frown to appear on Mordred's face.
"I know, I know!"
She muttered like a rebellious child and pushed Boudica away.
Looking at these three people, Cu Chulainn could inexplicably see the feeling of a family of three.
"Well, as long as something is gained, it's almost time for Emperor Nero to parade through the streets anyway. Do you want to join in the fun?"
Cu Chulainn asked.
Yagi Xuezai was hesitating, but Mordred waved his hand and said: "No need for that kind of fancy stuff. Anyway, there is a night market in the evening. I will stay here for a while."
"Then I'll accompany you too."
"Oh! You are very motivated! Very, very good!"
Yagi Xuezai's answer made Mordred extremely happy. The novelty of teaching others made her feel strangely excited.
Cu Chulainn smiled bitterly and said: "Then what else can I say? Then I will accompany you! Let's sweat the sweat of youth to the fullest, young man!"
Cu Chulainn looked at them with a smile as he looked at them with a look like "I'm not sweating anyway".
Boudica first went to the person in charge of the arena to talk about the situation, because during this period of time, Mordred would train like this on his own every day, and the person in charge of the Roman Empire Arena was used to it. He had already arranged it.
New sword fighters and beasts.
Regardless of whether it was staged or really lavish, in short, the Roman Empire gave people a feeling of abundance without lacking anything.
The sword fighter in the next scene... is said to be a sword fighter... but has a weird shape. First of all, he is over three meters tall, enough to be called a giant.
And then... the blue skin, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a human being. There are also lifelike black wings on the back - no, those things are real wings at all. Just like the legendary demon, it has black bat flesh.
There is no trace of wings on his body, but it can be clearly observed that the muscles all over his body are as tight as steel, and extending from his wide wrists are claws covered with cuticles.
Its eyes glowed faintly purple, and the monster's head with legs was glaring here with a predator's gaze.
No matter how you look at it, this thing is not a human being, but a demon or something like that.
"This is the pride of the Roman Arena, the demon sword fighter! The so-called demon of the arena!"
"Hey, this thing looks like a real devil no matter what!"
Yagi Xuezai complained, but the person in charge of the arena didn't answer at all, and just urged the two to start fighting.
The demon was bound in chains, and two Romans unchained him and gave him orders.
In fact, why should anyone else give orders? Since this demon was captured, his tasks have been the same every day, and he has long been accustomed to it.
The faint purple eyes were locked on Yagi Xuezai. Mordred snorted, pulled out a sword flower with the sword blade in his hand, and finally took the sword with both hands and made a posture: "Look here! This is the opponent!"
Yagi Xuezai knew that she was protecting him, so he materialized the holy sword casually, held it in his hand, lowered his posture, and made an attack action together.
In past gladiatorial battles, it was not uncommon to fight multiple opponents. There was nothing strange about the Demon Sword Fighter. He accumulated magic power in his hands, and the rich white light condensed in his hands and turned into a shining ball of light.
"Up!"
Mordred gave an order, and Yagi Xuezai ran away with her at the same time, attacking in two completely different directions!
