Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 53 Sword Training
"My lord, I heard you right." Korodov suspected that something was wrong, the lord wanted to teach him how to be a knight himself!
Stannis deliberately pretended to be thoughtful, "Because I have thought about it for a long time. The reason why those soldiers are unwilling to accept your training is because your training methods need to be improved."

"Because you have been using knight standards to strictly measure others, of course others are not happy. Therefore, I am willing to sacrifice myself for the lord, so you treat me as the son of a farmer who knows nothing, and train me to be a knight with all the methods. A warrior, then train to become a knight, and find ways to improve from it, isn't this idea a genius!"

The three subordinates looked at him without speaking for a long time.

It seems that they are impressed by their wit. On the surface, they can improve the training method, but they can also quietly learn how to become knights, killing two birds with one stone. I am really a genius!The lord thought proudly.

At this time, Robert expressed their common thoughts on behalf of everyone.

"Boss, are you full and have nothing to do?"

Unexpectedly, the plan that he had thought hard was treated like this, and Stannis was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"I said, do you have any opinions on my plan?" He glanced at the three guys viciously.

"What the boss said is very true, and I agree with it!" It was Robert who reacted quickly and was the first to change his position.

The rest of the people also nodded without principle.

Stannis nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, it's decided like this. The old man is on vacation, and Carrot is on guard. Big man, let's start in the afternoon."

in the afternoon.

Accompanied by the salvo of archers not far away, Stannis and Korodov in casual knight clothes stood in the school grounds.

"So, my lord, where do you want to start?" The knight commander asked first.

"Let's start with the most basic sword training." Stannis pulled out the long sword on his belt. The battle with the dark wizard yesterday made him feel powerless. If he knew how to fight at that time, maybe it wouldn't make Yi Flynn was injured.

Although compared to a purely physical fighter who is tired and sweaty and can only be used as cannon fodder, he would rather be a mage who destroys his enemies in a flash of laughter, but because there is no mage in the territory to teach him, he can only choose a swordsman as his first choice. first occupation.

However, Korodov on the opposite side looked confused.

"Practice sword? But your swordsmanship is better than mine!"

Stannis couldn't help but look sideways at himself. It turned out that the guy before was not only good at drinking and picking up girls, but his swordsmanship was even better than this knight commander. He could be called a master.

"So you are stupid!" After thinking for a while, Stannis figured out a countermeasure to deal with him, "Now you want to treat me as a newbie who doesn't know anything, then you say, teach me the first What is one thing?"

"Practice the sword." Korodov really didn't have a good brain.

Stannis chuckled, "Let's get started, I'm ready to accept the challenge."

10 minute later.

Already exhausted and almost paralyzed, he stood there panting while leaning on his sword. As an otaku, he didn't expect that swinging a sword was not as light and unrestrained as in the animated movie. His shoulders would be dislocated if he kept his long sword still, and he even tried to cut people with it.

Just now, he had just practiced against Korodov for a while, and he was in a hurry because he was exhausted and his breathing was disturbed. It is impossible to simply prevent the attack from the opposite side.

"Huh, huh, let me take a break." Stannis, who was about to collapse from exhaustion, begged and fell to the ground.

Korodov frowned, this amount of exercise is not even a warm-up, "My lord? You..."

Stannis's chest kept rising and falling, "Huh, huh, haha, huh, look at me in a novice outfit! Huh, huh..."

The big man shook his head, it was really difficult to figure out the situation with his limited IQ.

After resting for half an hour, Stannis regained his strength.

"Why is it so tiring to swing a sword? It obviously feels very light?" He squeezed the sword in his hand curiously, and he deliberately picked out a light one.

"With all due respect, my lord, it's you who can't adjust your breathing." Korodov said.

Stannis understood what he was talking about. It seemed that the technique of breathing and exhalation was a common law in ancient and modern times, both in reality and fantasy.

"Then teach me, use all your housekeeping skills, and see if you can teach me this newcomer." Although Stannis was telling the truth, he knew that no one in this world would believe him.

For example, the big stupid guy in front of him, he thought it was his lord who was testing him.

"Oh." Korodov replied earnestly, and began to seriously teach him how to maintain an even breathing and properly distribute physical strength in battle.

Stannis began to swing the sword under his guidance, and sure enough, the shortness of breath just now disappeared.

"Also, when you swung your sword again, you used too many movements that consumed your energy in vain. Relax your body, and then release all your strength at the moment of the strike." Korodov corrected him patiently. in the role.

However, his instruction was really useful. After an hour of training, Stannis had roughly mastered the basic movements of using a sword, such as slashing, stabbing, and chopping.

Now start further training.

"Hey, do you have any sword skills that you can teach me? You can't swing a heavy sword like a stick and defeat your opponent with brute force, right?" In his subconscious mind, he always thought that the medieval western knight's fighting style was not There are moves and techniques to speak of.

Korodov was very puzzled when he asked this question, "My lord, don't you remember that you learned the sword slashing technique, which is the most powerful and flexible sword technique in the Western Continent, and it is a real fighting art."

[Sword Slashing Technique] is a popular court swordsmanship in the upper class of the Western Land. The movement relies on the center of gravity of the weapon and the attack method to penetrate the enemy's head and destroy the central nervous system, rather than relying on the power of the weapon itself to slash. There is no reasonable explanation for why it is called sword cutting instead of sword stabbing.

"Ah um..." Although Stannis could speak the theory clearly and logically, asking him to use it would be tantamount to nonsense.

"That kind of swordsmanship is too flashy, let's learn from the most basic swordsmanship, don't you want to teach people like this?" He just found an excuse and fooled it.
