Becoming the Villain’s Family - Chapter 227
Chapter 227
Bart showed a neat and well-balanced movement to show that he’s really a Black Falcon Knight.
“What is that eyesore doing?”
“If you’re dissatisfied, why don’t you come at me?”
Bart shrugged his shoulders.
“I’ll deal with you as much as you want.”
Bart’s personality was known for being bad, but unfortunately his skills were impeccable.
The Black Falcon Knights, the most elite knights of Valentine.
Among them, Dustin, the second-in-command, was the most talented, but the next strongest was Bart.
Born in a renowned swordsmanship family, he is a natural genius who has been through regular courses to become a knight since he was young.
He is supported by the environment and talent.
“Hmm…….”
Of course, Sabina did not know nor intended to know about his complex circumstances, but she could roughly guess from Bart’s attitude.
He’s probably a pampered young master who only trusts his skills as he grows up.
Sabina fidgeted with her silk gloves and fixed her eyes on the knight.
“Do you have anything to say?”
“Yes.”
“Because I don’t have a relationship with the lady. You could get hurt, so if you want an escort, ask another knight… huuhb!”
Then Sabina took off one of her gloves and mercilessly threw it in Bart’s face.
Bart had no idea that the delicate lady who had ignored him would do something, so was taken off guard.
“I’m dissatisfied, so I’ll fight you.”
“No, I didn’t say that to yo… Ah!”
Sabina tossed the other glove as well. The flowy glove landed right on Bart’s face this time.
“Are you a knight who changes what you said as you pleased?”
“……Lady Valois, do you understand what you’re doing?”
Bart dropped the title ‘Madam’, which Sabina was so reluctant to hear.
She didn’t know why she felt bad when it was what she wanted.
“Unlike Sir, I accurately understand my actions. Throwing the glove is something done to request a duel, so what about that?”
Sabina’s words meant, in other words, that Bart could not differentiate what’s going on around him. The knight’s eyebrow rose to the sky in his face full of arrogance.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t know how ladies duel.”
“What a shame. I don’t know either.”
Sabina looked around and pointed at one of the Black Falcons standing there with a stunned look on.
“You, be the observer.”
“What?”
“Set the rules.”
“N, no… what?”
“I want you to lend me your sword.”
In an instant, the duel was settled.
The knights who belatedly came to their senses after being frozen in bewilderment shouted in unison.
“Calm, calm down!”
“I fully understand the feeling of wanting to beat that guy to death right now, but if you get hurt…”
The knights alternated between Sabina, who was slightly larger than the other women, and Bart, who was overwhelmingly tall.
There’s no way they can fight each other.
Above all, when the Grand Prince found out, they would all be dead meat.
‘Hurt? Well, that’s not bad either.’
Sabina thought to herself.
A scratch in her body would reduce her value in the marriage market. At best, it could be an excuse to break up the engagement.
“Sir, if you don’t set the rules within one minute, I’ll make a random decision.”
“No! In that case, not only should there be no harm to life, do not harm each other’s bodies and do not cross swords…”
“Are you kidding me?”
She stared at the bewildered knight for a moment in dismay. She drew the sword hanging from his waist without hesitation, and set the rules as she foretold.
“Until one becomes incapacitated.”
“Ha!”
Bart burst into an energetic laugh.
Sabina swung the sword with clean and flexible movements like flowing water.
Bart’s eyes were tinged with surprise as he reflexively took his stance and struck at her.
He thought that Sabina would not even be able to bear the weight of the sword, let alone wield it.
But what is she doing now?
‘Does the Valois family teach women swordsmanship?’
Even though Valois is the most prestigious of the knight families…….
At that time, without a moment to think, her blade met his and began to entangle his movements like a snake coiling around its prey.
It was a completely different method of swordsmanship where it was about pushing with physique and strength.
Bart, who suddenly came to his senses, narrowly avoided her blow.
‘No, it’s not a blow. That…….’
He couldn’t keep his senses in this unfamiliar swordsmanship he had never seen before.
One thing was certain.
‘It was a series of attacks.’
If he had been caught off guard, he would fall in an endless trap. He would be incapacitated in an instant. He was sure. He’d rather die than admit it, but…….
‘As expected of the Valois bloodline.’
Bart, who had no intention of dealing with Sabina at all, had no choice but to set his mind on it.
He is a man who has learned the sword properly. He might be the one to lose the duel if he doesn’t fight back.
‘Damn it, this is ridiculous.’
There are several knight families in the Empire.
The most famous of them is Valois.
The next most famous was Rodri.
Bart Rodri.
Born in the Rodri family, he had to listen to the second-in-command countless times from an early age. Even though he has the best swordsmanship skills than anyone else.
One day 10 years ago. Bart happened to meet and confront the Valois family’s eldest son, Gary.
Bart, who was so fed up with listening to the second-in-command, clenched his teeth and rushed at him. He made Gary fall to his knees in just three turns.
“What, turns out Valois wasn’t a big deal as well? It was seriously overrated.” He laughed like that.
He guessed that Sabina, as the daughter of the family, would be no big deal.
Until he sees her swordsmanship.
“Haah!”
Bart rushed in with a shout.
However, Sabina lightly dodged or parried all of his attacks. His strength may be stronger than her, but her speed was no match for him.
Besides, that swordsmanship.
That unfamiliar swordsmanship, which deviated from imperial swordsmanship, perfectly compensated for Sabina’s relatively small physique and weak grip.
