  Chapter 69 67. Competition   (A few hundred words have been added at the end of the previous chapter)

The training began.

Arden drew his sword, keeping his eyes on Knight Richie on the opposite side forever, swinging his weapon one after another to launch a seemingly fierce attack.

When the blades collided, his sword accuracy and speed were already close to the limit of civilians, but Rich still easily took every move of his.

"Huh." He withdrew the long sword, "You are too strong."

Ricci praised it instead:

"But you are still just Civilian, when you become Knight, with your skills and the superb sword technique taught to you by the mayor, it is estimated that you will be able to easily defeat me in a few years."

Knight even felt light. It is worth learning this sword technique. He didn't expect his mayor to master such an ingenious skill.

Arden said:

"But I have not yet, and I feel that the mayor is also a bit strange this time, if he really wants to choose Knight...

"Why didn't he say it directly? "

Rich shrugged:

"Great characters like to pretend to be mysterious, although everyone knows what is going on, they will never say it.

"It's a pity. If Sean is there, you and him will definitely help each other well. His sword technique innate talent is the best among anyone I have ever met, and although your sword technique He may not be able to surpass him, but he is more suitable to be a leader."

Sean ……

Arden and him are acquaintances and colleagues, but they are definitely not friends or friends. No one on the patrol is Sean’s friend.

He and Rich are friends. Rich thinks they and Sean are friends, but unfortunately the latter is not true. Sean actually keeps a considerable distance from everyone.

It's just that he pretends very well, almost no one can see his true thoughts.

If Sean didn't have such a good sword technique innate talent, he estimated that no one would have noticed the existence of Sean, but his innate talent is indeed very good.

He has duel with Sean ten times, eight of which are defeated, and the remaining two victories were deliberately given by Sean. Of course, Arden could not draw this conclusion from the battle itself. He was It can be seen from his character and his words and deeds at the time.

"He hasn't appeared for a long time, right." Arden asked, "I don't know what he is doing?"

Rich said angrily:    "I I heard that he wanted to quit the patrol. I really don’t know what this guy thinks. Everyone just gave up the opportunity to yearn for something even in dreams.

"I plan to do it again in a few days. Go and persuade him. "

Arden asked with a surprised expression:   "He wants to quit the patrol?" "

No.

He was not surprised.

He had noticed Sean's resistance to Knight's identity a long time ago. They talked a few times. Although he and Sean are not friends, he knows how to choose the starting point for the conversation.

If he didn't want his mother's life to be better, Sean might not join the patrol at all.

There is a bit of regret on Rich’s face:

"He obviously has such a good innate talent. As long as he becomes Knight, he may be seen by Ms. Elizabeth or any great character in the future. Then, there is a chance to be selected as a guard.

"He has nothing now."

Arden said:

"Forget it, maybe he has a reason that we can't understand, the more It's something that seems incomprehensible, and the more likely it is that there is a secret we don't know.

"This is Sean's own choice. "

And speaking of which Rich didn't really care about Sean's future so much. What he really cares about is the next thing to say.

Knight shook his head:   "If he were here, that Gary wouldn't be a threat to you, but it's hard to say now.

"Knight, who was training with him, told me that his sword technique is very high and his moves are wild. He uses a lot of techniques that he can't understand, but are actually very useful.

"You are simply a seasoned veteran, you have to be careful when the time comes. "

Gary.

Yaden has not seen him less these days.

Yaden doesn’t know if the other party has noticed him, but he has been observing. At that time, it all originated from the intrusion of the blood nobleman.

At that time, Gary looked towards Ron instead of the nobleman. Arden did the same thing, but it took him some time. Go looking for colleagues who look up to him.

And Gary was discovered by him.

These days he is also observing the opponent’s training, asking himself, if there is a duel, Sean Maybe he could beat him, and he would basically lose to Gary.

And he also noticed that Gary would often make eye contact with another civilian with good skills, but the two of them Have never spoken face-to-face.

Obviously, Gary is deliberately concealing their relationship.

"He is really unusual. "Arden commented, "But who will lead us in the end is still up to the mayor. "

Rich disagrees with his point of view:   "You are the most outstanding youngster on the patrol, how can you be compared by him?" "

Ritchie’s most outstanding youngsters have never been more than one or two.

And the reason why Arden said this is not that he doesn’t care about the position, nor is he afraid of Gary. He just feels that he is unlikely to affect Ron’s decision.

Apart from trying to be better, he has nothing else to do. In front of the mayor who can drive the nobles away, play tricks. Thinking carefully is not something smart people can do.

"If I am a member of the patrol team and it will be smooth sailing, then why should the mayor engage in this private army? Couldn't he just expand the patrol team? "

Richie fell into thinking:

"You said so, but isn't this what the great characters often do? It's unnecessary. The mayor has done this before. Is there anything less? "

Arden shook his head:   "This time is different, I can feel it."

"When the training is over today, let's go talk to Sean for a few words."

Rich didn’t continue this topic either:   " Let’s do it."

p>

Arden did not continue to speak.

Rich's eyes and expression changed.

It didn't take long.

"Arden?" Female voice.

He turned around:

"Miss Helen, and...

"Gary. "

The man is standing behind Helen, with an interesting smile on his face, his eyes nailed tightly behind him.

Obviously, he feels he is a competition Opponent.

Helen said:

"Come with me, Ron wants to see you two. "

Arden casts a kind and gentle look at Gary.

Gary's expression is a bit more boring and contemptuous, and he doesn't want to accept the "goodwill" he released.

This is also not bad.

Arden’s eyebrows raised, and then he showed his winning expression, looking at him with ease, as if all of Gary’s performance had already been expected by him. In.

Arden said to Helen in surprise:

"Okay, Miss Helen. "

His eyes crossed Gary again, and the other party was still confident.

As expected.
