[Chapter 104 David also wants to fight ten]

Sutton-Stewart looked at the young man who pulled out a long gun from the weapon rack and kept looking at and weighing it from time to time beside the weapon rack. He didn’t know whether the other party really understood what he meant.

At the beginning, Sutton-Stewart didn’t take David too seriously. He just regarded him as a new toy similar to those he had met before. Even

though David and Sharon sternly rejected the deal he proposed, he didn’t care too much.

Anyway, he was free and had enough time, and David wanted to upgrade his village, so he wouldn’t stay in the royal city for too long. He had plenty of time to play with the other party slowly.

He firmly believed that he would still be the winner in the end, because he would only gain joy and would not lose anything.

Even if he gave David everything he wanted, he would just say a few words. What could he lose? Nothing would be lost.

But this plan had to be abandoned when Beram found him.

Beram has set his sights on Winter Village, a new town located in the most remote part of the Kingdom of Tiran. He hopes to take over this new town and then gradually radiate his influence to the entire northern region of the Kingdom of Tiran.

It sounds like a good plan, at least much more reliable than the initial radical ideas.

So Earl Stewart asked David to attend the party with him, and in the presence of most of the nobles in the royal city and their children, he proposed that Winter Town become the fief of Princess Sofia.

Through Princess Sofia, he provoked the minds of those young nobles, making them question David’s ability and challenge the young village chief.

As long as David defeats these challengers and proves his military strength, he can legitimately be conferred as a knight, become the real mayor of Winter Town, and become a real noble of the Kingdom of Tiran.

As for David’s strength… From the first meeting, Earl Stewart realized that this young man named David was very confident in his strength.

Therefore, he was very curious about how strong David was? Or, was the confidence and fearlessness he showed simply derived from the ignorance of a country bumpkin?

“Your opponent, Jeremy Baker, is not yet a formal knight, but he has received training from the Knights of Tilan.”

The bravery of the Kingdom of Tilan is not just a boast. The nobles have received various trainings when they were young, and many members of the Knights of Tilan are the children of the nobles in the capital.

“I know.” David, who chose a long spear from the weapon rack, was also looking at his opponent, the young man named Jeremy Baker.

With the help of the servants, Jeremy put on a full set of armor and pulled out two swords from the weapon rack. He

held a standard long sword in his right hand and a short sword in his left hand.

The standard knight’s weapon techniques include long and short sword swordsmanship, among which short sword swordsmanship is a compulsory course, mainly used when the main weapon is difficult to use in a small space.

The swordsmanship of the long and short sword is very suitable for single duels, and the short sword can achieve unexpected effects and even complete a critical fatal blow.

But no one can appreciate these.

The two young men picked up their weapons and stood in the middle of the field. When the dignitaries around were still wondering how long it would take for the third son of the Baker family to defeat this countryman from the north, the battle in the field was over.

The long sword had fallen to the side, and the sharp spear tip was firmly stopped in front of Jeremy Baker’s neck. If it was just a little bit forward, it would be able to pierce a hole in it.

The faint chill on his neck made Jeremy Baker dare not breathe hard. When he swallowed his saliva, he was worried that his neck would rise and fall too much and be cut by the spear.

David took back the spear and casually put it on his shoulder.

From beginning to end, David had a relaxed smile. In Jeremy’s eyes, this was a meaningless, stupid, and ignorant smile.

But now it seems that stupidity and ignorance seem to describe himself. This person may have been laughing at himself from the beginning, but he did not have the courage to continue fighting with the other party.

Although Jeremy has not completed all the training and become a qualified knight, those trainings have broadened his vision and knowledge. Even if he only used a long sword to fight the opponent once, he still realized how big the gap in strength between the two sides was, so he decisively chose to admit defeat.

“Your Excellency is very strong. I lost this competition.”

Throwing the short sword still in his hand to the ground, Jeremy Baker knelt on one knee very formally, put his right hand on his chest and bowed his head slightly, and saluted David.

Then he stood up and returned to the crowd. With the help of his own servants, he took off the armor that he had just put on and had not even warmed up.

“This young man from the Baker family is straightforward.” David did not expect that the opponent would choose to admit defeat so straightforwardly. He thought that the opponent would continue to attack and pester for a while before giving up. He was ready to play for a while and show the huge gap between his strength and the opponent.

“However, according to Stuart, I don’t have to worry about not having an opponent at all.”

Glancing back at Earl Stewart, the Earl seemed somewhat surprised by his performance, and at the same time showed a bit of surprise, clapping himself, as if to cheer himself up and encourage himself to keep up the good work.

David’s guess was right, Earl Stewart did not expect David to perform so well. He had expected that David might be quite strong, but this performance still exceeded his expectations. At the same time, he also found that David did understand the true meaning of his previous words.

“Show the strength that is worthy of your status… Similarly, when you show strong strength, you will also gain a higher status.”

The Kingdom of Tilan advocates bravery and a positive and open environment, giving young people like David an opportunity, and the current King Abelson Tilan is a king who likes to reuse outstanding talents.

If it weren’t for these prerequisites, Earl Stewart would not do these things, even if he wanted to plan Winter Town, he would change his method!

“But if the performance is too good, it seems that it is not a good thing for me…”

Earl Stewart, who was originally very happy and had fun watching, then realized that David’s strength seemed too strong. He had to adjust the subsequent plan, otherwise it would be easy to get out of control.

Earl Stewart was thinking, and His Majesty King Abelson of Tilan was also thinking.

He hadn’t figured out what his brother-in-law was going to do? But David was undoubtedly an outstanding young man. After he became interested in this young man, he ignored the other noble son who entered the field, but turned his head and gave a few instructions to the attendant beside him, and then turned back to look at the field.

“Wow~”

At the same time when His Majesty the King turned his head, he clearly saw David using the spear shaft to knock down his opponent, and then turned the spear and used the spear blade to hold the throat of the man who had fallen to the ground.

“Awesome!”

Before he had time to listen to the explanation of the knight next to him, so that he could understand what had just happened, his daughter’s exclamation came from his side.

Turning his head towards his daughter, he found that his little daughter was staring at the scene with glowing eyes.

“…”

He understood what his daughter’s reaction meant, and he didn’t know what to do. He would talk to her mother about it later!

Next, His Majesty the King wanted to appreciate the performance of this young man.

Obviously, this young man named David, who came from the north of Iron Tree Castle and the most remote area of the Kingdom of Tilan, has very good strength.

“What do you think of his strength?”

“This young man is very strong, Your Majesty!” The answer was from His Majesty’s personal guard knight: “Although the two people he defeated are not formal knights, they are receiving training from the Tilan Knights to teach knights.”

“So, this young man has the strength to be a knight?”

“That’s right, Your Majesty.” The personal guard knight seemed to want to say something, but after thinking about his identity, he swallowed all the extra words back into his stomach.

He felt that ordinary young people in the countryside could not have such powerful military force, and he doubted David’s identity. But after thinking carefully, His Majesty the King could not have thought of what he could think of, and it was not his duty to give advice to His Majesty the King.

“Oh~”

exclamations rang out again around them. This time, the opponent was defeated faster. This young man named Franky Hutton, perhaps wanting to take advantage of his physical strength, did not even change his armor. He just drew out his sword and held his shield and went straight to the field. The next second, he was knocked to the ground by David. After

three consecutive battles, David’s breathing remained steady.

Including Franky Hutton, the three young men finally admitted that they had lost, and knelt on one knee to salute before returning to the crowd.

While David was enjoying the baptism of the eyes of the people around him with various emotions, he secretly wondered: Why does the Kingdom of Tilan advocate bravery so much? Did he accidentally choose the most correct development path?

No matter what attitude these noble children had when they jumped out, they were very graceful when they finally admitted defeat, and they did not pester them endlessly. The family education of these nobles was quite good.

Of course, it is also possible that His Majesty the King was watching from the side. Even if these young people were unhappy, they could only hold it in. After all, they represented not only themselves at this time, but the entire family.

“Next, it should be someone with more power who will appear, right?” Looking at the people around him, David felt that those who were strong enough and wanted to reap the fruits of victory at the last moment would not continue to watch, but would prepare to leave.

But he did not expect that the opponent he was waiting for was no longer the noble children around him, but a knight from the Tilan Knights.

“The teaching knight of the Tilan Knights, Floyd!”
