Chapter 258 The showdown between a genius boy and a girl
Since it was a duel, the weapon used was naturally a wooden sword.

Ten-year-old Claire is taller than eight-year-old Ye Cheng and Sid at this age.

The fighting skill that the Kageno family is good at is to use magic to strengthen one's body to fight, and Claire's talent in this aspect is even more outstanding.

But now facing Night City, Claire did not choose to use magic power to strengthen her body at the beginning. Instead, she gripped the wooden sword tightly and launched an attack on Night City without saying a word!
It has to be said that it is not unreasonable for Claire to be called a genius.

Although he is only ten years old, judging from his current level of swordsmanship, he has already surpassed the Omega guards who once competed with Ye City.

However, at this level, he is far from being Ye City's opponent.

The slash that he thought was inevitable was dodged by Ye Cheng's slight sideways movement, which made Claire's face show a look of surprise.

Because the slash failed, Claire also exposed her flaw. Just when Ye Cheng saw this opportunity and prepared to continue to counterattack, Claire used the inertial force of the slash to use her hand to support the ground and use a one-handed Rolling over, the distance between him and Ye City was once again increased.

"You have quite excellent reflexes and ability to adapt to situations, Miss Claire."

Seeing Claire rolling on the ground with one hand, eliminating the flaw in her own attack, Ye Cheng did not pursue her, but showed a look of admiration on her face.

Not only him, but everyone watching the battle couldn't help but applaud and praise Claire when they saw her excellent adaptability.

"Baron Cagenor, your daughter is indeed a born knight as rumored. Such excellent qualifications put us of the same age to shame."

Faced with Gas's praise, Baron Cagenor also showed a proud look on his face. However, despite being proud, he looked at Ye Cheng who was calm and composed in the field, and his expression became much more solemn than before.

The same solemn look also appeared on the face of Claire who was facing off against Ye City.

"Can you see my movements clearly and anticipate my attacks?
It seems that this kind of duel won't be too boring, and is more interesting than I imagined. "

Just from the brief confrontation, Claire could already tell that Ye Cheng was not a nerd who only stayed at home and read books as rumored.

Although the opponent's movements just now were simple, he obviously had a certain foundation in swordsmanship. At least Claire judged that if she was not serious, she might not be able to defeat Ye Cheng in front of her.

After analyzing the current situation clearly, Claire began to become serious and began to use magic power to strengthen herself.

Because of the enhanced magic power, body functions can exceed the upper limit, so warriors with magic power in this world are much stronger than pure warriors.

Of course, if you want to use magic power to strengthen yourself, this requires certain magic power manipulation skills, and not everyone can do it easily.

And Claire, who can accomplish this difficult skill, is only ten years old now.

Seeing the magical aura emanating from Claire's body, the guests present could not help but praise her again.

Baron Cageno, who was standing aside, looked even more proud when he heard these compliments. Although he was not the genius, he was indeed proud enough as a father to be able to educate such an outstanding genius. capital.

Claire, who had used magic power to strengthen her body, once again shot out at extremely high speeds. This time, her speed was at least twice as fast as before!
"Crack——————!" However, just when she thought she was going to hit Ye City with a blow she thought was inevitable, the scene that happened in front of her shocked her again.

Because facing her whose body functions were strengthened by magic power, Ye Cheng still used the wooden sword to block her attack!

Claire, who did not believe in evil, started to use continuous high-speed attacks after the slash was blocked. The wooden sword in her hand even showed an afterimage because of the speed of swinging it too fast!
"Crack-crack-crack-crack!"

However, no matter how much Claire continued to attack, her stormy offensive was all blocked by Ye Cheng. The sound of the wooden swords colliding with each other echoed in the training ground one after another at this moment.

Because Ichimo's defense would be a bit too fake, so while guarding against Claire's attack, Ye Cheng also took the time to launch a few attacks. In short, he tried his best to look like he could barely parry.

The two small figures kept colliding in the training ground, and the dazzling high-speed slashing collision made the guests present a little dumbfounded. They were shocked that this was actually a duel between an eight-year-old and a ten-year-old.

To put it bluntly, the strength shown by Yecheng and Claire now is far stronger than that of the official knights from noble families.

Because of the outstanding performance of Ye Cheng and Cleia, the guests present also complimented Gass and Baron Kageno.

Gass just nodded to express his gratitude, but Baron Cageno, on the other hand, smiled and nodded, but he actually felt a little uncomfortable inside.

Originally, he thought that his eldest daughter Claire's talent was outstanding enough. In terms of magic control and swordsmanship, she even caught up with the kingdom's first princess, Alice.

But I didn't expect that the only son of Baron Omega, who was usually silent, would actually have such outstanding talents.

Claire on the field is already a little exhausted due to the continuous high-intensity fighting. After all, age is there. Even if the magic talent is stronger than normal people, there is always a certain limit due to age.

But even though she no longer had the magic power to maintain her physical strength, Claire still had no intention of admitting defeat and insisted on attacking Night City.

"It seems that she is a very sincere child who refuses to admit defeat. If we really defeat her, we will be in big trouble..."

Ye Cheng, who was thinking this in his heart, soon revealed a "flaw", and Claire, whose eyes suddenly lit up, put the wooden sword against Ye City's heart.

However, before Claire could be happy about her victory, she heard the boy in front of her suddenly say: "It seems that we are tied in this duel, Miss Claire."

Hearing Ye Cheng's words, Claire realized at this moment that at some point, the wooden sword in Ye Cheng's hand also appeared on the side of her neck.

This is the Cageno family. As the host, if the other party loses face, it will only make the situation awkward and unmanageable.

Moreover, defeating a little girl would bring no benefit to Ye Cheng. Apart from making the other party cry and leaving a problem, there would be no advantage at all.

Therefore, Yecheng could only let the duel end in a "draw", which would maintain the honor of the Omega family and not disgrace the Kageno family.
