The dazzling sunlight poured down from the distant sky onto the earth. Even insects chose to take a nap at this time to avoid the heat.
In the yard in front of him, two people were facing each other quietly, letting the scorching sun shine on their bodies, and both of them did not move.
The whole yard was so quiet that even the sound of breathing seemed to have disappeared.
At this time, a little bird flew to the top of a tree in the yard. It seemed not to notice the strange atmosphere here and started singing as usual.
“Chiu~!”
boom--!!!
The singing of the birds is like a signal to start.
In an instant, it seemed as if thunder appeared out of thin air in the yard. Two loud noises sounded at the same time, and then the two thunders collided with each other.
Puff puff puff!
The little bird that landed on the treetop was frightened and flew away in panic.
And behind it, in that courtyard, thunder continued to roar...
After a while.
"That's it!"
Lezelian, who had been watching the fight, stopped the two men from fighting.
As he spoke, the two warring thunders separated at the same time, and then two figures appeared.
One of them was a young man of about twenty years old, and the other was a girl of only about twelve years old.
The young man slowly put down the wooden sword in his hand and stuck it into the ground.
"Hulim, you're amazing... If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't have believed you were only twelve!"
Snap!
The wooden sword stuck in the ground finally died at this moment and shattered all over the ground. If you look closely, you can see that many of the fragments have turned black.
"Brother Zig is not weak either."
Hulim stuck the wooden sword into the ground just like Sieg did.
Snap!
Then this wooden sword suffered the same fate as the opposite one.
"Haha~, little sister, you really don't know how to comfort people. I'm twenty years old now. If others knew that I was outshined by my twelve-year-old sister, I would be too embarrassed to face them~!"
"...But Brother Zieg is really not weak."
"Alright, alright! You two stop arguing. Dad, I declare that you are all very strong! I am the weakest, alright?"
Lezelian stepped forward and said.
"Haha, Dad, you really know how to joke! I lost to you before!"
"You kid, you really want to outdo me, your dad!"
"No, no, that's not what I meant~!"
"Well, it would be better if there really weren't any! But... seriously—"
Lezelian looked at Hulim,
"Hulim, how did you manage to master all the Hyelal sword techniques in just one year?"
“… …”
Hulim wanted to say that he hadn't mastered all of the Hyelal swordsmanship. After all, he was still two moves short...
However, Hulim was hesitant about whether she should tell her father the truth about her ancestors and the matter of the S-rank swordsmanship.
The Haieral family has lived like this for three hundred years. What would happen if they suddenly learned that their ancestor was not as recorded in the books, but was even more powerful?
Maybe I will be very happy and even more proud, but what happens after that?
The ancestor had long since passed away from this world. This was what Irus had told herself. An S-class expert who no longer existed was meaningless, and if the news got out, it might even attract the attention of people with ulterior motives. Even if there was actually nothing left, as long as there was a possibility, some A-class experts would have the desire to explore.
Moreover, regarding swordsmanship, it is still in the speculation stage. It is still unknown whether the Hecadiza Mountains exist. If they do not exist at all, even telling my father will only add to his troublesome expectations.
"Let's check first..."
"What? What does Hulim want to confirm?"
"nothing."
Hulim shook his head, then added:
"Father, I was able to learn the fifth form within a year because I often went to the dungeon to practice. The opponents there were just right, and I mastered it without realizing it."
Hulim did not hide this fact. Most of the monsters in the Youguang Dungeon were solitary and their strength was generally not weak, especially in the lowest area.
Using them to practice sword skills can give oneself appropriate pressure. In addition, they are all sensitive monsters, and their compatibility with "Ruolei" is simply too good!
The result was that I learned it in less than a year.
"Dungeon?... I see. With enough pressure, it's not impossible to master it... But still, this is surprising."
"After all, Hulim, you're only twelve! In our family's history, there have indeed been people who have fully mastered swordsmanship before adulthood, but you're the first at twelve!"
"Well... I guess I was just lucky."
"Luck, luck..."
Rezelian felt quite complicated. Could this be achieved by luck... ...He used to think that Amen was the most talented person in the family's history, but now it seems that Hulim is even more outrageous, and the same goes for Sieg. Although he is a little worse than Amen and Hulim, his talent is still amazing!
I used to think I was quite talented, as I had mastered all the family swordsmanship in my early thirties. But compared with these three kids, I'm simply disgraced!
What on earth is going on?
How come so many geniuses suddenly emerged from this generation of the Haieral family?! Did I accidentally do something good that earned the Six Gods' appreciation, thus bestowing blessings upon the Haieral family? Or was it Lilia's doing...
