Whispers of the Gods

Chapter 5 Mundy I

Seeing this, Monty stepped aside, ready to see how his younger brother was trained by Berdan.Although Alan's physical talent is much worse than Monty's, he is quite concerned about swordsmanship.

Allen picked up the wooden sword and shield, and assumed a combat stance.

"Raise the shield a little higher," Beldan tapped Alan's shield with the wooden sword in his hand, "Start!"

Alan shouted and started to attack, swiping the wooden sword vigorously, but every attack was easily blocked by Beldan with one hand.

"Use the shield to pull into the distance!"

Beldan always kept the sword in front of him, with his arms at right angles to his body, making it impossible for Allen to find any flaws.

Allen listened to the instruction, pressed his left arm on the shield and rushed forward, while continuing to slash with the sword in his right hand.

"Don't swing and slash, this will only give your opponent an opportunity!"

Beldan blocked Alan's slash, pressed down his right hand holding the sword, and moved to Alan's right side with a step, and hit the back with the sword head, causing him to stagger a few steps forward and almost fell to the ground .

After stabilizing his body, Allen threw the shield aside, and rushed towards Beldan with the sword in both hands.

His strength was too weak, even holding the sword in both hands did not put any pressure on Beldan's defense.

After resolving a few heavy cuts, Beldan used his long sword to push Alan's hands down and drew the distance between the two sides, and then pushed him to the ground with his left hand.

"On the battlefield, shields can save your lives, and never take the initiative to throw away your shields." Beldan said after helping Alan up.

"I don't think I'm going to fight," Mundy said.

"If there is a war, don't you go to the battlefield?" Allen asked.

"No," Monty pouted, "I'll run away and take you with me."

"Why?" Allen said with some doubts in his tone.

Monty smiled and said, "Because if the day comes when both of us have to go to war, it means the empire is over."

Feeling that what he said seemed a little unlucky, he quickly added: "But as long as there is father, there will be no war."

Mundi adored his father, Vigrich, and during his 26-year reign he not only cleaned up the mess left by his father, Emperor Ataginus "The Hammer", he also paid off Debts of the empire, rebuilding the economies of key cities, and marriage alliances with the kingdom of Vivaria in the north.

The empire has not experienced any wars in the past 26 years, which is rare in the nearly thousand years of Hastza history.

"Mondy! Ellen!"

A familiar hearty voice came from the outer corridor.

Monty looked over there and saw Chuck coming, clattering in black high boots and a suit of armor.

Draco loved his armor enough, and Monty couldn't understand why anyone would like the feeling of being covered in stone-heavy iron.

Duck's black curly hair just reached his strong chin, his brown eyes were piercing, and he sported a thick black beard.

Compared with the tall and strong Zhuo Ke, Monty felt that he and Alan were like two little kids who could be easily picked up by him.

"elder brother."

Monty and Allen greeted.

Zhuo Ke nodded heavily, "Master Beldan."

"His Royal Highness Prince Zhuo Ke."

Beldan saluted respectfully.

"How are the two boys training?" Zhuo Ke asked.

"Today's training has just gone on for a while," Beldan replied, "Does Your Highness want to teach you something?"

"no problem!"

Zhuo Ke accepted the proposal boldly, and took the wooden sword handed by Beldan.

"I didn't say yes," said Monty.

"Haha, come on, Monty," Chuck laughed, "I'll let you."

Monty sighed, "I've had enough beating today."

After all, he went to pick up the wooden sword and shield on the ground.

"Come on the two of you together."

Zhuo Ke flexibly rotated the hilt of his sword and said.

Contrary to the eager Chuck, Monty is not at all interested in what will happen next.

Zhuo Ke was a disciple trained by Beldan, and he was simply a master of swordsmanship who was more than [-] years younger.

Monty and Allen held a sword and shield, standing on both sides of Zhuo Ke's left and right hands.

"If we put pressure in different directions at the same time, there is still a chance." Allen said to Mundy.

"okay."

The younger brother's serious face made Monty a little nervous.

Allen gave Monty a look, and the two rushed towards Zhuo Ke together.

Mundy knew nothing about combat skills, and he only remembered the sentence "shields can save lives" about the instructions given by Beldan during the training just now.So Monty held up his shield and swung his sword to chop at Zhuoke.

Zhuo Ke held the sword in both hands, while blocking the attacks of the two, he adjusted his position as quickly as dancing, and the heavy armor on his body seemed to have no effect.

Before he knew it, Zhuo Ke had already circled to Monty's left hand, pressed the shield with the blade of the wooden sword, and threw himself to the ground with a kick.This did not allow myself at all.

After solving Mondy, Zhuo Ke seemed more at ease, and every attack by Allen was useless.

"Don't swing the sword indiscriminately," Zhuo Ke instructed, "This will only expose your back to the opponent."

After speaking, Zhuo Ke approached Alan while he was slashing vigorously, and stabbed Alan in the back lightly with the tip of his sword.

Allen did not give up, and after returning to the fighting position, he put the sword on the shield and stabbed.

"Nice tactic, but watch the distance."

Zhuo Ke always kept the distance between the two with his sword, and Alan's attack could not reach him.

After many rounds, Allen became a little impatient. Although he kept moving forward, he couldn't get closer.

Zhuo Ke blocked and circled towards Allen's right hand, but he didn't make a move when he had the opportunity, and even if he did, he didn't make a move.

Seeing that the strategy was ineffective, Alan held up his shield and rushed towards Zhuo Ke, slashing from top to bottom with his right hand.

As if he didn't react, Zhuo Ke let Allen get close and hit the armor with a muffled "bang".

After successfully hitting Zhuo Ke, Allen paused for a while, showing signs of happiness on his face, but it was quickly replaced by anger.

"It seems that Master Belldan taught very well, and the progress is really great."

Zhuo Ke smiled and said to Allen.

"Don't let me!"

Allen pushed Zhuo Ke away and roared.Then, he threw the shield and wooden sword in his hand, and ran towards the outer corridor.

"What's wrong with this kid? I just want to make him more confident."

Looking at Alan's leaving back, Zhuo Ke said helplessly.

"He likes to win, but not in this way," Mundy replied. "You know how fragile Alan's ego is."

Mundy added, "But next time you might consider letting me in too."

"You brat, you obviously haven't made any progress, and it's useless to let you." Zhuo Ke shook his head.
