They all call me master

The registration address for the Nanlos ‘Swordsmanship Competition’ is at Alta Square.

Alta Square, which had suffered a gas explosion before, had been completely restored under the premise that the Count of Nanlos had personally paid for it. However, this explosion made the Count of Nanlos reconsider the safety of the gas lamps. The renovation of the 'Gaslight', which started in April of the following year, was once again delayed.

Even the lobbying and persuasion of several "gaslight companies" in the Inner Bay had no effect.

According to rumors, these "gaslight companies" have begun to look for help from others - the original 100% shares have begun to decrease.

Especially due to the competition between several "gaslight companies", this share ratio is being cut off at a speed visible to the naked eye, and is being eaten up by the locals of South Los Angeles.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Bourne.

Bourne doesn't know this either.

As the coach of the 'Joelchok Swordsmanship Club', he is more concerned about this 'Swordsmanship Competition'!

He is 20 this year, but he has not celebrated his 20th birthday.

Therefore, he is still qualified to participate in this ‘Swordsmanship Competition’.

Besides him, there are two other students in the club who meet the requirements - apart from their age, they must survive at least ten moves under him.

Otherwise, it is just a waste of registration money.

However, when Byrne took two students to register, they discovered...

I'm afraid he will also have to waste his registration money.

The contestants in this ‘Swordsmanship Competition’ are too strong.

Not to mention the player who was as tall as a little giant who just passed by and walked towards the east corner of the square. The one standing in the west corner of the square was also extremely scary. He felt a stinging sensation in his eyes just after looking at it for a moment.

There are also players on both sides of the North and South corners.

Although it's not like a single person standing in the east and west corners, it's more like a group of three or five.

But the players standing everywhere have a unique atmosphere.

That breath...

Some are like that ‘spiritual medium’!

When he thought that these people had the power of the 'spiritual medium', Bourne couldn't help but smile bitterly.

And, more importantly, these people were strangers.

As a well-known instructor in the Nanlos swordsmanship circle, although Bourne is just twenty years old, he knows most of the swordsmen.

unless……

‘Noble?

What happened?

Why did all these nobles send people to compete? ’

Bourne has some understanding of those aristocratic styles.

It is impossible to end the 'Swordsmanship Competition' in person, but the rights of 'nobles' allow them to choose to have their attendants participate on their behalf.

This kind of thing happened in the previous ‘Swordsmanship Competition’.

But it's just one or two occasional cases.

It is unique to see such a large-scale participation.

This concerned Bourne very much.

But no matter how the young coach guessed, he had no clue.

Regarding the fact that "the reward for the champion of the swordsmanship competition includes the title of knight", it is still only spread among a small group of people who can be known.

Out of this small area?

No one will be told more.

Just like Bourne and civilians like Bourne.

They won't know what happened until the last minute.

And at the last moment, no matter how much they knew, everything was already finalized and there would be no chance of change.

Therefore, for them or most people in Nanlos, the 'Sword Competition' is more of a celebration mixed with performance.

main character?

It will never be them.

Of course, even supporting roles and supporting roles are rewarded in such celebrations.

It's like the owner of the 'Joelchok Fencing Club' is constantly walking among the crowd.

Todd Gillie, the owner of the Joel Chok Fencing Club, originally wanted to replicate the 'miracle' of the last fencing competition.

But after discovering that the people standing at the four corners of the square were extraordinary, he immediately gave up his original plan.

The boss began to show a smile and stepped forward to establish relations.

Bourne and the two students didn't pay much attention to this.

That's not their thing to worry about.

What they need to worry about is the 'Sword Competition' that starts tomorrow.

Therefore, after saying hello to his boss, Bourne left with the two students - while there was still some time, he needed to clarify the battle plan for himself and the two students.

The appearance of those noble waiters...

It disrupted his original plan.

Obviously, many unwilling civilian players have the same idea as Bourne.

They come in a hurry and leave in a hurry.

Fighting for his only chance to "get ahead".

Even if...

not much hope.

Standing in the shadow above the clock tower, Malinda held a pipe in her mouth and glanced at the east and west corners of Alta Square, but there was a hint of ridicule——

The contestants standing there are the 'Family Waiters' representing 'Baron Collor' and 'Baron Haussmann'.

This is a ‘noble privilege’ and no one can say anything more.

However, Malinda was still surprised by the shamelessness of the two barons.

The woman recognized both players.

Among them, the tall, strong player who looked like a little giant was Kang Siang, the "Whale Killing Sword" who was quite famous in the "Offshore Islands".

Another contestant who is thin and exudes a sharp aura is Deljo, the extremely famous ruins explorer in the "Bate Territory".

Both of them are 'Major Arcana' level players.

They all have their own forces in their respective territories.

The former owns Whale Island and has at least 200 men who control various facilities such as docks, taverns, hotels, and brothels on the island.

Although the latter is not large in number, a complete expedition team of 12 people is something that no one dares to underestimate.

And it is not easy to convince such people.

‘Oh, for the title of ‘knight’, did you give up part of your family’s core inheritance? ’

Malinda sneered in her heart.

She knew something about Baron Collor and Baron Haussmann.

I also know that this kind of core inheritance that can touch the 'advanced person', even if it is only part of it, will be attractive to 'Great Arcana level' powerhouses like Kang Siang and Deljo.

So much so that these two are willing to appear as 'family servants' of both families - this is to circumvent the 'noble rules' that have been in place since the Silver Age: non-nobles are not allowed to touch 'noble knowledge'.

Although with the advent of the pioneer era, these 'rules' have been loosened in some places.

But in most places, it is still indestructible.

At least, that's how it is in South Los Angeles.

But what this lady knows more clearly is that inheritance is not enough, talent is also needed. Otherwise, both 'Baron Collor' and 'Baron Hausmann' will be 'entrants'.

Therefore, the woman's eyes were full of ridicule.

Instead of mocking the 'Whale Sword' and 'Blizzard Sword', they were mocking the 'Baron Collor' and 'Baron Hausmann' families.

‘Sometimes, rules are not a constraint, but a protection...

Hope you understand what you are doing! ’

Malinda thought in her heart and looked at the north and south corners.

Immediately, his eyes darkened slightly.
