Eagle's Glory

Teresa was anxious, but she didn't dare to talk anymore. She knew that her father was usually very talkative, but when he was serious, he would never allow perfunctory.So she could only look at the two of them anxiously.

But the Grand Duke's provocative eyes and words aroused the anger in the young man's heart.

That being the case, come on!

"Okay, Your Highness." He stood up, and then bowed to the Grand Duke, "I am very honored."

"Okay, come with me." Archduke Karl nodded.

Then, the two walked out of the mansion together, and came to an open space outside. This open space was very flat, and there were soft grass on the ground. It was indeed a very ideal place.

Teresa followed behind all the time, for fear that something would happen between the two of them.

"Let me be the referee, Dad!" She demanded forcefully, "Otherwise I won't allow you to mess around."

"Yes, as long as you don't take sides." Archduke Karl shrugged and answered sarcastically.

Then the servant brought over two training swords, unsharpened and smoothed at the top.Like two iron rods.

Aigron took one casually, then waved it lightly, looking for the feel of the hand, allowing himself to adapt to the center of gravity of the sword.

"It seems that you really learned well." Seeing his subconscious movements, Grand Duke Karl nodded. "However, how many real talents are actually learned, it has to be verified in practice."

Then, the two held swords, and looked at each other a few steps away.

Aigron slightly lowered his shoulders, and then adjusted his breathing.

He didn't know how far he should control, and now he had to adapt to the situation.

"Teresa, you can start shouting." Grand Duke Karl greeted his daughter.

"Daddy!" Teresa protested again.

But her protest didn't get any response, and she had no choice but to look at the two people in front of her.

Hope they end sooner.

"Start!" Seeing that her father was determined to go his own way, she had no choice but to yell out.

At this moment, Grand Duke Karl took a sudden step, and then moved the sword in his hand upwards, stabbing towards Egron's body.

His skill is very fast, considering his age, this is really not easy, it can be seen that he has always maintained physical exercise.

But... it's not fast enough compared to the boy's teacher.

Aigron, who had already adapted to the teacher's rhythm, dodged to the side lightly, dodging the blow.

However, at the moment when the stabbing failed, Archduke Karl slashed heavily to the lower right, and Egron had no choice but to continue to take a step back, while blocking the blow with his sword.

When the two swords intersected, there was a crisp metal sound, and the young man felt a little numb in his wrist, but he did not expect that his strength was also maintained well.

But... that's all.

Aigron is sure that even when he was young, he was not his opponent, let alone now.

However, how should everyone end up decently?

"What's the matter? Are you still hesitating?" Grand Duke Karl temporarily stopped, and then shouted at him, "Do you still think you have everything? Still dare not fight! You are so wrong, fool!"

"What did you say?" Aigron was a little puzzled.

"It's good that you can hold your breath, but you also need to be able to move!" Grand Duke Karl continued to look at him, "Bloodlines give you tickets to enter that arena, but bloodlines can't guarantee your victory, no opponent will Because of whose son you are, let alone because of whose son-in-law you are, you will not automatically kneel and surrender, if you want them to kneel, you have to use your fist!"

Then he raised his arm, clenched his fist, and signaled, "Only by knocking them down without hesitation, and then continuing to hit them mercilessly, so that they can never stand up again, can you win-and only win Only then will you be compensated for your hard work and pain, so you tell me—young man, do you want to win? If you don’t want to win, you don’t deserve anything!”　　

79, decisive victory

"So you tell me—young man, do you want to win?"

Archduke Karl's question is like hitting the soul of a young man.

In a daze, he recalled that the last time Archduke Karl took him to visit the disabled veteran, he asked the same question.

Like last time, he had only one answer to this question.

His expression became serious, and then he looked at Grand Duke Karl, "Yes, I want to win, Your Highness."

"That's right." Seeing the young man's eyes full of desire to win, Grand Duke Karl finally smiled with satisfaction, "Then, let's come again, I don't want to fight against a hesitant opponent anymore, take out your Come on, really."

"Since this is your request, out of respect for you, I will obey." Egron replied calmly, "However, I think you have no chance of winning in this case, and I hope you will not be angry when the time comes."

"The chances of winning don't depend on words!" Archduke Karl replied disdainfully, then shook the sword in his hand twice, "Come on."

"Wait a minute." Aigron shook his head lightly, "Can you put forward additional conditions? I want to make my victory more worthy of celebration."

"What do you mean?" Archduke Karl was stunned for a moment, but immediately agreed nonchalantly, "Okay, no problem, after all, it is my competition, and you, as the party accepting the challenge, have the right to make your own demands."

"I think you are so much older than me. It would be too unfair for us to fight unconditionally. I took too much advantage." Egron said, taking out his pocket watch from his pocket, and then Looking at Teresa, "Teresa, catch it."

"What?" Teresa looked confused.

Aigron threw the pocket watch directly at her, and Teresa subconsciously reached out to take the pocket watch and continued to look at the boy.

"Please help me time, 1 minute is enough." Aigron smiled slightly, "You announce the start as the referee, and then start timing. If I can't win within 1 minute, I will be considered a failure."

"1 minute?" Both father and daughter were a little surprised.

"Yes, I think this is more than enough." Aegron glanced at Archduke Karl with a little haughtiness, "If I disarm you within 1 minute and make you unable to fight again, then I will win. If I can't , I’ll admit defeat, I think it’s only fair—”

Archduke Karl frowned.

Although he already clearly felt that the young man's skills were very good, but at this moment he really felt like he was being underestimated.

He had never seen such an arrogant look on this young man before.

It seems that the young man has indeed been aroused to be fierce, and his speech and behavior are full of aggression.

Good, very good, so it will be promising.

"Then I want to see if you have the ability." He nodded, then looked back at Teresa. "Teresa, just do what he says—"

"Why are you all like children!" Teresa could only sigh helplessly.

Now that the quarrel has reached this point, she can only helplessly let them finish the quarrel first.

But at this time, she was also curious whether His Highness could really win within a minute.

She picked up His Highness's pocket watch, and checked the time.

"Start!" She started the duel between the two again.

This time, Archduke Karl did not take the first shot, but put on a defensive posture, and Aigron did not attack immediately, but took two small steps forward.

He knew he had 1 minute, and plenty of time.

Perhaps because he was too oppressive at this time, Grand Duke Karl took a step back unconsciously, wanting to keep the distance between the two of them.

But at the same time as he retreated, Egron raised his sword directly, then bent his knees and took a step forward at lightning speed, and then stabbed Duke Karl with his sword.

Archduke Karl, who was already at a disadvantage, was forced to block with his sword, but the young man continued to slash down with his sword, forcing the opponent to barely support, and his footsteps kept retreating.

In a short period of time, Archduke Karl has been enduring the torrential attack, but he has no intention of admitting defeat, and continues to grit his teeth and persevere.

Because of the continuous impact of the two swords in a short period of time, he felt that his hands were numb, almost unable to control his hands, and his eyes became a little blurred.

He knew in his heart that if he continued to fight, he would definitely lose, and the only hope now was to survive this minute.

However, although time always passes by inadvertently, when people expect time to pass more quickly, its flow rate will suddenly slow down. He never thought that 1 minute would be such a torment.

Just when he was anxious, the young man swung his sword over again. Grand Duke Karl could barely lift his sword to block it. At this time, the young man turned around and used the strength of his waist to slam down the sword heavily. The pain of the collision of the two swords made Grand Duke Karl's hand tremble again, and he could hardly hold the sword anymore.At the same time, the boy's footsteps also moved along the trend, and he moved sideways in front of Grand Duke Karl.

Archduke Karl wanted to step back again, but his action was only half done, because a fist hit him hard in the abdomen.

"Ah..." The sudden severe pain made Grand Duke Karl groan and almost fainted.

Then his hand was loose too, and the sword immediately fell to the grass.

Then, he half-kneeled and sat on the ground, breathing heavily, using this method to relieve the pain in his body.

And the young man didn't intend to continue chasing, but just stood in front of him, looking down at him calmly.

"47 seconds..." Teresa, who was watching the battle, subconsciously called out the time.

However, she reacted immediately.

"Stop it!"

She screamed, threw the pocket watch to the ground, and rushed between the two without hesitation, separating them, for fear that they would mess around again when they were in a good mood.

"Dad, are you okay?" She squatted down and supported her father, asking in a crying voice.

Grand Duke Karl's face was pale, obviously enduring pain, but he still shook his head, "I...I'm fine."

"Your Highness, you are working too hard..." Teresa looked back at Aigron, and then complained.

"I'm sorry." Aigron put away his sword, "but, I think if I don't do this, the Grand Duke will suffer even more. He hopes that I will do my best. And, Teresa, with your father's physique , he can bear it, don't worry."

"That's right... That's right. Teresa, I made him work hard, so it's a good thing he did. You don't want people to see the joke, you should congratulate Your Highness..." Grand Duke Karl finally breathed a sigh of relief He came, and said to his daughter in a hissed voice, "His teacher really didn't brag. I've seen it, and it's amazing. Alright, Franz, now come and help me."

Egron bent down obediently, took Grand Duke Karl's arm, and led him to stand up.

Because the battle was over, the evil spirit on his face had dissipated, and his usual gentle expression had returned.

"Your Highness, go back and rest for a while."

"I really didn't expect you to be so hard." Because the abdomen was still hurting, Grand Duke Karl grinned, "Yes, looking at Sven, there is a kind of ruthlessness."

Then, he smiled wryly, "I was just saying, 'If you want them to kneel, you need to use your fists!', I didn't expect it to happen to me so soon, hahahaha..."

"I didn't do it on purpose." Aigron smiled sheepishly, "I just think this can relieve your resistance as quickly as possible."

To be honest, although Aigron has always been confident in himself because of the teacher's constant praise, he has never really fought with others before, and he does not have a clear estimate of his own level.

He didn't expect that his teacher taught him so well.

In other words, his efforts were not in vain.

"Have you finally had enough trouble now?" Tears welled up in the corners of Teresa's eyes, "Dad, stop messing around!"

"Okay, Teresa, that's all for now, I can't spoil your fun today." Father smiled and nodded to Teresa, "Come and help me too."

So, Archduke Karl put his arms on the shoulders of the boy and the girl respectively, and with their support, he walked back to the mansion.

Teresa looked at her father from time to time, and at this moment of weakness, his oldness was finally fully revealed.

"Don't worry, little girl, I'm fine." Instead, Grand Duke Karl comforted his daughter, "Don't look so miserable!"

"If a person can still laugh seeing his father become like this, is he still a person?" Teresa asked. "If you don't want to see me look miserable, then stop messing around."

"This is a necessary lesson." Archduke Karl replied with a wry smile, "If a person wants to take on heavy responsibilities, it is impossible not to have some qualities. Franz already has enough talents and conditions for him to take on heavy responsibilities. But he needs to develop a hunger for himself, that kind of... that kind of anger that if I don't win today, I'd rather die.

I was once entrusted by His Majesty to the army, with the lives of 10,000+ people in my hands. Any wrong decision I make may cause hundreds of thousands of people to die in vain, so I have tasted this kind of anger, and I have been tempered by this kind of anxiety. , will have the courage to move forward.Thank God we don't have to fight now, but the spirit is still very important - Franz, if you become my son-in-law then you have to do something, because I hate crap.So you have to muster up the courage to go over the thorns and thorns, to overcome all difficulties, you have to step on the opponent, you have to remember the anger that was ignited just now, remember the arrogance you despised the opponent, you have to permanently destroy what you just showed us. keep it up!do you understand? "

Aegron didn't answer, just nodded silently.

What the Grand Duke said was correct, but there was one thing wrong—his heart was already filled with that kind of angry anxiety.Although he had to restrain himself due to the situation, he would never forget what he wanted.

"You better say a few words." Theresa interrupted her father's words in distress.

"Teresa, stop talking about it." The Grand Duke took a deep breath, and then let out a long breath, "If you can find a lover who is talented in civil and military skills for you at this price, then you should be cheering... "

"Stop talking nonsense!" Teresa interrupted her father angrily.

While they were talking, they walked back to the mansion together.

"Oh my God!" Seeing her husband's current miserable state, Princess Henrietta covered her mouth, "You guys have gone too far!"

"It's okay, Henrietta, Your Highness is very measured." Grand Duke Karl shook his head with a smile, and then sat on the sofa, "Bring me some wine now, I'll be fine after I drink it."

"I really don't know why you men like to ask for trouble so much, even at this age, you are so brave." Henrietta poured a glass of milk and handed it to her husband. "No alcohol for three days."

After speaking, she looked at the young man again.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry..." Aigron apologized to her, "I really should pay attention to it just now."

"Don't be nervous, Franz, I'm not such an unreasonable person, it's not your responsibility, he's asking for trouble." Henrietta sighed, "I think you're also quite distressed, I hope this turmoil Don't affect your mood."

Then, she waved her hand lightly, "Okay, I'm going to take care of this old man next, you and Teresa go out for a stroll, when we meet at night, I hope all of us will forget what happened just now."

"Of order, ma'am." Eggron hurriedly withdrew as if he had been pardoned.

Teresa also obeyed her mother's order and ran out quietly following the boy.

She frowned, obviously the turmoil just now had caused her a lot of blows.

After a long time, she finally stretched her eyebrows, "Your Highness, although I am not happy, I still congratulate you, you have indeed fulfilled your bold words."

"This kind of victory doesn't make me feel honorable." Aigron replied calmly, "Your father is old, and I just won by relying on the explosive power of young people, which makes me feel like I'm playing tricks."
