Episode 73 Defense Completed
I boarded Arleo and confronted the twelve executionersâŚ
âI am the Kingdomâs SS, Captain Bilkea, Ludia value 18,000, and I shall demonstrate by my power the legitimacy of this sentence! Defending attorney, identify yourself by name and show your intent!â
I donât know, maybe itâs a kind of self-introduction, I had no choice but to say the same thing.
âI am Yuta of the Iron Knights! I will demonstrate their innocence with my power!â
âWhat are you talking about? With a Ludia value of 2, you canât even move a toy! How can you ride a magicraft?â
It doesnât matter what they sayâŚâŚbut this time there was a guy there who knew my Ludia value, Mikage followed the captain.
âCaptain, what Iâm saying is true, I can assure you, I was there when it was measured.â
âWhat the hell, Mamoru?âŚâŚIf you say so, it must be like that. But a Ludia value of 2 is âŚâŚ if thatâs true, what are we going to fight now, itâs not even a battle.â
âHuhâŚâŚ.I donât care what the Ludia value is! Take him down!â
Mushym seems to be short-tempered, and he doesnât want to watch such an exchange, so he tells them to start fighting right away.
âThen letâs hear the arguments, counsel, upon the signal begin your plea.â
The official in the center of the room was holding a yellow flag, which would probably start the battle when it was waved.
The yellow flag was waved and at that moment, the magicrafts of the executioners started to move all at once. I raised my right hand to the captainâs magicraft, pointed my magic bullet at it, and fired it at his neck.
Whoo! The captainâs magicraft neck was blown off; he fell to his knees and collapsed on the spot. The other enforcers stopped moving, staring at the captainâs broken magicraft, as if they couldnât understand what had happened, and I took advantage of the opportunity to accelerate and close the distance to Mikageâs magicraft.
Mikage was also shocked that the captainâs magicraft was disabled by a single magic bullet and he couldnât react quickly enough when I approached. I hit the defenseless Mikage with the tonfa and the body of the magicraft dented. He collapsed backwards with a thud.
After the Mikage was defeated, the other enforcers finally cooled down and attacked. First, I destroyed the head of the magicraft that attacked me with the sword by poking it with the tonfa, then I avoided the attack of the enemy who attacked me from behind with a large axe and blew its head off by hitting it while spinning.
I hit the leg of an enemy magicraft approaching from the right to stop it from moving, and then I crush the head of the enemy plane with a knee kick as it gets into a low stance.
After twisting my body to avoid the simultaneous attacks of the two magicrafts, I blow off the head of one with my right tonfa as I thrust it up from below like a boxing uppercut, and rotate the tonfa in my left hand to deliver a powerful blow to the body of the other.
Having defeated the Highlander, which was the main force at first, the remaining enforcers were slowed down by fear and agitation â normally they would be able to fight a little more, but they feared the enemy and were rushing in without coordination.
While moving, I rotate my body and swing my tonfa to destroy more and more enemy magicrafts that come near meâŚâŚThe next thing I knew, there was only one enemy left. The last one has already lost its will to fight and is only slowly falling back, not willing to attack. I think the battle has already been decided, but I thought it would never end if I didnât defeat it, so I gave the neck of the magic machine, which was too scared to do anything, a quick poke with my tonfa to disable it.
âYouâŚâŚidiots! Twelve magicrafts in such a shortâŚâŚtime, and youâre all elite members of the Kingdomâs SSâŚâŚ.â
To the surprised Prince Mushym, Linnecarlo said proudly.
âYou seem surprised, Brother Mushym, but Iâm afraid you miscalculated by underestimating him, a rider who could tie with me.â
âIâve never heard of such a mercenary other than the Sword Saint.â
âWhy donât you declare the outcome of the trial, the crowd is waiting for it.â
As Linnecarlo said, the people watching the trial were looking at Mushym with great interestâŚâŚ.Mushym seemed to feel some power in their gaze, and reluctantly said these words.
âAcknowledging that the defenseâs argument is validâŚâŚI find all those here not guiltyâŚâŚ.â
The moment Mushym said that, there were loud cheers from the crowdâŚâŚ.Some of them were probably the families of the innocents, and I was very happy to be able to help them.
