The Labyrinth Kingdom

Chapters 78. Train Tanding

Day after day passed quickly, it did not feel like they had spent more than 2 months together in the kingdom of Aria.

The big meeting that was held 2 months ago is also nearing completion now.

Perhaps because of the kidnapping incident that occurred last month, the country that supports the agenda of the kingdom of Aria is diminishing.

The final outcome of this great meeting was predictable from the beginning. But the Arian government is still trying to convince other countries to help them.

But unfortunately, the support they get instead of increasing is even less.

The kidnapping case took an important war in this regard. The remaining victims have not been found until now.

This is what makes many countries consider the kingdom of Aria is not serious in responding to this important case and disappointed with the performance they have.

While the top officials of the country have entered the last round of discussion on the topic of continental peace that they discussed in a major meeting.

The young nobles had also enjoyed the time they had spent together for over two months.

They manage to form connections with each other and increase the number of friends they have.

Like other ordinary days, Aaron spends most of his time playing with his friends at their secret base.

Occasionally he would attend the meetings that other young nobles held in the open hall.

But... To be honest, he didn't really like coming to that place because, the girls would definitely swarm around like ants finding food.

Especially these past few days, maybe because the big meeting was coming to an end, the girls started to more aggressively pursue him.

It takes a lot of effort to escape their pursuit and it is at times like this that the presence of Arya is very helpful.

Aaron is currently at the secret headquarters, along with his friends.

'Ting! Ting! '

'Ting! Ting! '

The sound of a sword impact could be heard clearly within that cave.

Right now, he was watching Arya and Timoty who were practicing combat.

Both swordsmanship capabilities are already excellent, although Timoty still has more of an edge in swordsmanship compared to Arya.

'As expected of the youngest sword master on the continent.there were no futile moves he made, everything flowed smoothly like river water flowing unhindered. ' aaron said in his heart.

He praised the sword skills Timoty had.

'Maybe his sword skill is currently equivalent or even surpassing mine now, said Aaron in admiration.

He knew how much struggle Timoty had in training his sword skills to this point.

That's why Aaron appreciates him so much as a friend.

'Arya still has some mistakes in her movements, some times she makes unnecessary movements. This is a natural thing! From the beginning, Arya was not a sword user but a spear user.

If he used his spear while training for a match, maybe the fight this time will be more intense than it is now" said Aaron.

He noticed Arya's strange fighting style, the boy mixed the swordsman's fighting style with the spearman's fighting style into one.

This is what makes the movement full of gaps and occasional errors in decision making.

'Tin...!'

After his attack was successfully repelled. Arya continued to launch her attacks, she swung her sword sideways quickly.

But Timoty predicted that. He twisted his body to dodge Arya's attack with a thin distance, then counterattacked.

He thrust his sword towards Arya's shoulder quickly.

Seeing the attack coming towards him, Arya quickly pulled her sword back to resist Timoty's attack.

But that was Timoty's goal from the start. The piercing attack he had done before was just a trick, the real attack coming after that.

In the middle of the road, Timoty's piercing motion turned into a slashing movement from the bottom up that held Arya's sword firmly.

Because of the attack, Aryan's sword was thrown away and Timoty seized this opportunity to end the fight.

He pointed the tip of his sword at Arya's neck as a closure.

"Thank you for the experience! if you used your spear before, I might not be able to defeat you so easily" Timoty said.

He lowered his head slightly as respect for his opponent.

"Huf... Don't say that, winning is winning and losing is losing. I also used the sword earlier to train my sword skill that was starting to rust" Arya said as she wiped her sweat.

He felt extremely exhausted after fighting against Timoty for over an hour.

"Otsukaresama! You two have shown interesting fights before. Take this and refresh yourself " said Aaron walking closer to the two.

He gave the green-colored Potion to the two, the function of the Potion was different from the red Potion used for healing.

The potion is called Energy Booster. As the name implies, the Potion serves to restore the lost energy quickly.

Both of them immediately drank the Potion without a second thought.

In a short time, their expressions which initially looked exhausted, disappeared in an instant and became energetic again.

"Thank you" said Arya as she stretched her growth.

"Thank you for the potion, it was very helpful" Timoty said.

"No need to hesitate, from the beginning you really need that thing" said Aaron with a smile.

After the two felt well again, they walked towards where the girls were huddling.

As the three approached, they saw that the girls were playing 'WarZone' at the moment.

Incidentally, other than fishing, practicing combat and chatting.

Aaron and his friends also often play 'WarZone' together, to ward off boredom.

Especially when Jeanne had just joined the group, others tried to challenge her to a match and the results were quite satisfactory.

Of the ten matches, Roro won 6 times, Timoty 8 times, Alice 4 times and Arya never won against Jeanne though.

Though he was the most eager to challenge Jeanne in the beginning.

Currently, Alice who looks to be challenging Jeanne is competing.

Aaron observes the situation of the second battlefield and assesses that Alice has suffered a considerable loss.

When she realized that her older brother was looking at her almost defeated figure, there were tears in Alice's eyes.

He tried to stop himself from crying.

Realizing Alice's miserable situation, Aaron said to his younger sister.

"It's okay, Alice. Hey, look at that. Think about it. Even in situations as bad as anything, you should not stop thinking. As long as you don't leave the game, the possibility of winning is still there. ” Aaron advised his brother.

Listening to her sister's words, Alice wiped her tears and looked back at the Board game.

He reassembled his remaining troops and arranged them according to the strategy he would use.

And then, after a few minutes it took place in a battle simulation. Alice let out a small voice, 'there', and began to move her final trump card.

It was a small army made up of the combined Light Infantry and Heavy Infantry that Jeanne had neglected before.

Because of that small mistake, victory and defeat are reversed at once. The course of the war changed drastically at the last moment.

After that, Jeanne was defeated in just a few steps and her cheeks flushed red with annoyance.

He puffed his cheeks and looked at Aaron hatefully. Stare, Aaron only returned with a cheerful smile.

“Excellent! your skill has improved so significantly at the moment, you can even corner Alice on stage 3 with ease." said Aaron praising Jeanne.

"If you hadn't come bothering me, I would've won already" Jeanne said a little annoyed.

“Hahahhh, sorry, sorry. You must have thought that I wouldn't interfere, right? But unfortunately, as a good brother, I can't possibly let my sweet sister grieve. Can you forgive me for that? ” said Aaron while stroking his sister's head.

Jeanne seemed to think for a while before answering.

"..., Okay! But, instead, you are the one who is fighting against me now. Hows it? " challenge Jeanne.

“By pleasure, my cute princess. "said Aaron with a smile.
