Chapter 126: Chapter 14: The Result and Promise
Walking to the weapon rack, Bianka chose a plain knight's lance without any hesitation.
"Hmm..."
But when she pulled out the lance, Bianka couldn't help but frown slightly.
So light...
"Hey, Bianka, are you really not going to wear protective gear? And you're good with this heavy lance?" Maria, who was standing next to her, said in surprise after seeing Bianka's actions.
"Protective gear is not necessary. I'm not used to it, and it affects my flexibility. As for the lance, I am indeed better with it." After listening to Maria's words, Bianka shook her head slightly and explained.
After speaking, Durandal swung the lance in her hand lightly and quickly.
"Bianka, you are amazing. I have tried this kind of weapon before, but it is still too heavy for me." Maria stretched out her hand and scratched her head, looking at Bianka's movements, and said a little embarrassedly.
Maria can pick up this heavy type of spear and swing it. However, using it as a common weapon and attacking the enemy in a coherent manner was still too difficult for her.
"It's okay. Everyone is good at different things. Just find and use the weapon that suits you." After comforting Maria a little, Bianka walked towards Zofia, who had been waiting for her with the weapon.
"I'm ready. Miss Zofia, we can start."
After Bianka stood opposite Zofia, she spoke to her calmly.
"Although I can control my strength, if you don't wear protective gear and get injured, Miss Bianka, you can't blame me." Zofia gave a final warning, her expression serious as she wielded her whip blade, which she hadn't used in a while.
Although Zofia was a little surprised that Bianka chose this heavy spear suitable for riding and charging, she still didn't think the young Bianka in front of her could defeat her.
"Well, Miss Zofia, just go ahead."
Hearing this, Bianka nodded without saying too much.
Out of respect for Zofia, Durandal quickly focused her attention and took the spar seriously.
"Let me make the first move..."
Looking at Bianka's composed look, Zofia raised her eyebrows slightly and muttered softly.
However, since someone had handed the initiative to her, she would not hesitate.
Zofia's eyes narrowed as she waved the whip blade in her hand and attacked Bianka quickly and flexibly for afar.
"Shua——"
"Bang, clang——"
Although Zofia's attack seemed very sharp and flexible to others, even difficult to dodge, Bianka blocked all the attacks with the spear in her hand without any effort or movement.
"..."
Seeing this, Zofia raised her eyebrows again, slightly set aside some of her worries, moved faster, and began to look for flaws.
However, as time passed, Zofia's expression became more and more surprised. No matter how she let go of her hands and feet or looked for flaws, Bianka, who seemed to be passively defending, perfectly defended all the attacks, leaving her no chance at all.
"Shua——"
Just as Zofia was surprised, Bianka, who had been passively defending, suddenly moved, and the traditional heavy knight's spear entangled with the whip blade, then suddenly exerted force.
"What..."
The terrifying force transmitted along the whip blade, dragging Zofia forward for a distance, and caused her weapon to slip out of her hand.
Then, before anyone could react, the tip of the spear, which was shining with cold light, stopped in front of Zofia's slender neck.
The outcome of this spar was self-evident.
"Huh..."
Then, Bianka flexibly manipulated the spear and moved the tip away.
"You win, Miss Bianka. You are indeed very strong and have the strength to participate in the Major."
Zofia looked at the girl in front of her, whose expression had not changed from beginning to end, and said in a calm tone. But the surprise in her eyes betrayed her composure.
"Miss Zofia is also very powerful."
After listening to Zofia's words, Bianka affirmed without any hesitation.
"Hmph... You don't need to tell me, I know my own situation well." Hearing this, Zofia snorted lightly, shook her head, and stopped talking.
"Wow, Bianka, you actually beat Sister Zofia!"
After seeing the two finish their competition, Maria, who was standing not far away, rushed over, with a hint of excitement on her face.
"Well, so, are you relieved now?"
Looking at Maria who ran in front of her, Bianka patted her shoulder with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
"Hey~ Of course, I'm completely relieved."
Maria stuck out her tongue and smiled lightly after noticing Bianka's helplessness, trying to get away with it.
"Heh~"
When Bianka saw Maria's smile, she knew that the purpose of her competition this time had been achieved.
"Although you have enough strength, don't be arrogant." When she said this, Zofia seemed to remember something and continued: "You signed up late this time. Have you thought about how to arrange the next points game?"
"I have thought about it. Time is indeed a bit tight, so I have planned to give up other forms of competition and choose the free-for-all competition directly." Bianka nodded slightly after hearing this and then explained in a calm tone.
The decision to directly participate in the free-for-all competition was made when Durandal was determined to participate in the Major.
The reason is, of course, because it is very simple.
If other modes still need one-on-one, slowly accumulating points, you can accumulate a lot of points in a free-for-all competition.
If you are strong enough, it is no problem to accumulate enough points to advance in one game.
"Well, since you are strong enough and have your own arrangements, I won't say much." After listening to Bianka's words, Zofia nodded in praise. Then she continued: "If you need any help later, you can come to me for Maria's sake."
So far, Bianka has exceeded the test in Zofia's mind. In this case, whether it is because of her little expectation in her heart or for Maria's sake, she is still willing to give some help when necessary.
"Okay, thank you, Miss Zofia."
