Fantasy Simulator - Chapter 42
Chapter 42: Chapter 42 – Fight
“It’s Mader…” People began to whisper among themselves.
“It’s him, why did he do this at a time like this…”
Some people frowned as they looked at the middle-aged man, thinking to themselves.
Most of them were wondering why Mader had said such provocative words.
Others looked quite interested, wanting to see a rare battle between Knights.
One of them was a famous Knight, and the other was Corripo’s student, one of the up-and-coming geniuses.
No matter how this battle turned out, it would definitely be very exciting.
Looking at these two people staring each other down, many people had that thought.
Kelly’s expression was complicated, and he opened his mouth, wanting to mediate between them. However, he was unable to say anything in the end.
He knew that Mader was most likely acting on Princess Olivia’s instructions. The reason was simple—it was most likely to test Kailin’s strength.
Fame was not everything. As a Princess who wielded much authority, Princess Olivia was not someone who would trust only fame.
Kailin was indeed very famous, but Princess Olivia wanted to know if his fame matched up with his actual strength.
At that moment, Kelly could not help but worry for Chen Heng.
It had to be known that Mader was one of Olivia’s strongest subordinates, as well as one of the three Knights who served her. He was a Knight who had awakened a Life Seed.
On the other hand, Chen Heng had not awakened a Life Seed and was just a Knight Apprentice.
The gap between them was incredibly obvious.
How should Chen Heng deal with this situation?
“Let’s hope Mader goes easy on him,” Kelly inwardly sighed.
The moment that Chen Heng got up, the eyes of a girl sitting in another corner lit up.
She looked at the tall Chen Heng standing up and could not help but look somewhat excited. She almost lost control of herself and got up.
Fortunately, she remembered Olivia’s words and controlled herself. She continued to hide in the corner and did not make any noise.
The atmosphere became somewhat tense.
Chen Heng was the only one standing, and he had a tall and straight figure as well as valiant looks. He was someone who easily attracted others’ attention.
At that moment, he felt quite serious inwardly.
With his current strength, his five senses were incredibly sharp. He could sense the changes in the people around him and even hear what some people were whispering.
The terrifying pressure coming from the person in front of him also told him of that person’s strength.
“A true Knight…” Chen Heng’s expression was calm as he thought to himself.
A true Knight…
There were very few people present who knew how terrifyingly powerful true Knights were more than Chen Heng.
During his first simulation, Chen Heng had traveled about as a mercenary. During that time, he had even fought with a true Knight.
That was an incredibly dangerous encounter. Even though Chen Heng was incredibly strong, he could not put up a fight against a true Knight at all and could only tie him up for a short while.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he had other people with him, who were also able to distract the Knight, he might have died at the Knight’s hands.
Moreover, that had been a relatively elderly Knight who was far from the peak of his strength.
Mader was still in his robust years and most likely even stronger than the Knights that Chen Heng had previously encountered.
Even though Chen Heng was far stronger than he was back in his first simulation, he still did not want to face a Knight like this.
However, the circumstances would not permit him to retreat.
If he did not respond to this person’s words, his reputation would greatly fall.
All of the reputation and fame he had gathered for himself would crumble, and his value and impression in Princess Olivia’s eyes would greatly fall too.
Moreover, Chen Heng thought of something else.
“If this person is acting under Princess Olivia’s orders, then his goal should be to test my strength and determine my value…”
Chen Heng’s expression was calm as he thought to himself, “If that’s the case, then he won’t kill me, no matter what.
“Otherwise, if something unexpected happened in front of so many people, Princess Olivia’s reputation would most likely be affected as well…”
Chen Heng did not know about Verna, and he thought that the other side was just testing him out, which was why they were doing this.
However, no matter what, they would not kill him in front of so many people.
After all, it was not just a matter of reputation. They would not be able to give Corripo an explanation.
Based on Chen Heng’s understanding of his teacher, if he was killed by someone, Corripo would most likely immediately draw his sword and go after his killer, even if it was Princess Olivia.
Out of fear of Corripo, this person most likely would not kill him.
Since there was no risk of death, there was nothing to worry about.
Rustle…
A clear sound could be heard from ahead.
At the center of the hall, the dancers all retreated and made space for them.
Chen Heng’s expression was cold as he stretched out his right hand and drew a silver sword.
Under the candlelight, the silver sword seemed to shine with light, and it was especially eye-catching.
“Ha, not a bad sword.”
Mader drew his own sword as he looked at Chen Heng and coldly laughed as he said, “Let’s see how your sword skills are.”
“You’ll see soon,” Chen Heng said calmly before advancing.
Whoosh…
As the guests watched on, Chen Heng’s body suddenly disappeared.
Sharp sword wind slashed out in all directions, the sound of which covered all other sounds.
The faint silver sword slashed through the air.
The two figures simultaneously attacked, savagely slamming towards the other person.
By the time everyone else had come to their senses, the two of them had already collided.
The clear sound of swords clashing could be heard, and both people pushed against the other.
“You…” Feeling the power behind Chen Heng’s sword, Mader looked somewhat surprised.
In the next moment, the sound of wind could be heard.
Chen Heng sidestepped forwards with a cold expression and held his sword with one hand as he ferociously slashed downwards.
As he attacked, the life energy in Chen Heng’s body erupted.
Bang!
The sword’s speed became even more terrifying, and the power that it contained was much stronger than before.
