A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 389 Duel
He didn't take a bite of the meal, but his stomach was already filled with gas. This may be the true portrayal of Beckman and his son after they came to Vincent's house as guests.

Seeing his son Nemancha impulsively wanting to duel with Arthur Morgan, a Western rogue, Old Beckman barely managed to keep his composure. He stood up from his seat, slammed the table, and shouted to his son:

"Nemancha! Stop messing around!"

Arthur held Linda with one hand and responded with a smile:
"Listen to daddy, Nemancha, and stop messing around."

Let’s just say that the damage was real damage, but Arthur really told Nemancha not to mess around. After all, this young man named Nemancha was a bit stubborn, but Arthur didn’t hate him very much. After all, , as young people, it’s understandable to be impulsive.

It's just a pity that young people are young people. On this occasion, not only his fiancée is in front of him, but his 'love rival' is also 'provoking' him in front of him. How can the hot-blooded Nemancha endure this?

Nemancha didn't care what his father said. He only had Arthur in his eyes now. He shouted:

"Are you going to be a coward! Arthur Morgan?!"

"Nemancha!" Old Beckman was still trying to dissuade him.

"Father, the duel has been initiated! I will never cancel it!" After saying this, Nemancha no longer paid attention to his father, but stared at Arthur who was blocking the way and continued: " If you admit that you are a coward, then apologize to all of us and stay away from Miss Vincent! Otherwise, you will accept my duel!"

Hehe, is Arthur a coward?
It is the behavior of a coward to have no fight with the world or others.

Not fighting when being humiliated, not fighting when being harmed, but this is the behavior of a slave even lower than a coward.

Arthur was not in the habit of being a coward. As the saying goes, good words can't persuade a damn man to die.

"Okay, what weapon do you want to use for the duel?"

"Mr. Morgan!" Seeing that Arthur agreed to the duel, Brydon Vincent, as the host, could no longer sit and watch the show. He said in a somewhat stern tone:

"You two, let's not say that dueling is illegal. This is my home. I will not allow you to duel here. Sit down now. Mr. Morgan, don't be arrogant, you..."

"Mr. Vincent." Arthur interrupted Brydon.

Brighton's face looked ugly, but Arthur didn't care, he said:

"What I just said has been made very clear. I will have the money returned to you tomorrow. As for this meal, you can just eat it by yourself. I want to leave now, but this little Mr. Beckman must Stop me and still want to duel with me, according to your noble creed? I agreed. Now, tell me what weapons you are going to use for the duel, and let us finish it quickly, okay? If we can't duel here, I don't mind going outside at all. solve."

Nemancha accepted Arthur's proposal. He didn't know which wall or corner he took two bladed one-handed narrow-gauge long swords from, and then followed Arthur outside.

It has to be said that although Nemancha seemed to be overwhelmed by anger, he still retained a certain amount of reason.

His experience in the West made him understand that dueling with a gun like Arthur Morgan, who was mixed up in the West, must be a death-seeking and irrational act, so he chose the sport he was best at, the sword.

Speaking of which, this was Arthur's first time playing with a sword.

Linda asked worriedly and angrily:

"Arthur, can you use a sword? This Nemancha is so bad, he actually chose to duel with a sword!"

"Don't worry. Although this is my first time using a sword, I think the only difference between this thing and a dagger is the length, right?" Arthur comforted the nervous Linda.At this time, the servants and housekeepers in the mansion, as well as Brighton Vincent and Old Beckman who were standing at the door, also followed them out.

"Brydon, don't you give me an explanation for this matter?"

Brighton was also furious at Old Beckman's question. His eyes were fixed on the two duels in the field. Seeing that they were already holding long swords and beginning to test, he said:

"Explaining everything is a matter for later. Your son is still intact. Do you really want to let him do whatever he wants?"

What can old Beckman do? If he stops his son now, he will also go to Arthur for a duel tomorrow.

"I've already asked people to call the bodyguards. If things go beyond my expectations, I'll let them shoot. Let me tell you first, Brighton."

"..."

Brighton immediately understood Old Beckman's plan, which was to let his men shoot Arthur when the situation in Nemancha was not good...

In the field, Arthur held his sword horizontally in front of him, as if he was holding a dagger that was a few sizes larger in his hand. Arthur was no stranger to fighting people in close quarters, but the weapon was a sword, but it was really a head. Once, if nothing else is considered, it is quite interesting.

"Nemancha, didn't your swordsmanship coach teach you? When fighting for your life with others, you should stare at your opponent with wide eyes?"

Seeing that Nemancha was distracted and looking at Linda standing aside, Arthur gently tapped Nemancha's sword hand with the sword in his hand.

The startled Nemancha quickly withdrew his attention, and then, being made angry by Arthur's words, he did not test or withdraw his strength, and slashed at Arthur with wide open and wide strokes.

As for this reckless attack, no matter what an expert might think, Arthur, a swordsman layman, knew that he was looking for death.

But no, after sideways dodging Nemancha's slash from the upper right to the lower left, Arthur directly hit Nemancha's forearm holding the sword with the hilt of his sword, knocking off his weapon in one fell swoop. The moment Nemancha tried to pick up the fallen sword, Arthur put the sword in his hand on Nemancha's neck.

This scene frightened the onlookers Old Beckman. In the end, Bryton saw that Arthur had no intention of harming Nemancha and stopped the bodyguard who was about to shoot in advance.

It was precisely in this way that Braton also saved the life of the bodyguard who still knew nothing about it. After all, Carmen had been holding the handle of the gun and staring at him since just now.

"you lose."

"...!" Nemancha didn't think so.

At the risk of being cut in the neck by the blade, he still picked up the weapon and slashed at Arthur again. Although the momentum was commendable, the movement was too slow. After Arthur dodged easily again, this time, Arthur Se directly used the sword in his hand to knock away the sword in Nemancha's hand. Because the difference in power between the two was still too great, Nemancha's weapon fell away.

"The second time, Nemancha, I will not give you a third chance." After saying that, looking at Nemancha who was stunned on the spot, Arthur thought that Nemancha had finally given up, so he threw it away. He drew his sword, then turned and walked towards Linda.

never thought.

Nimancha, who was standing on the spot, looked at the sword that Arthur had dropped on the ground. The feeling of being hit by a huge sense of failure prompted Nimancha, who wanted to get rid of it, to pick up the sword that Arthur had dropped. sword.
