Eagle’s Glory

Chapter 128: 16. Agnes

Under the watchful eyes of the Trevilles, the boy and the girl fought happily.

The two of them swung their swords vigorously, and the pace under their feet was also non-stop, and the transition between attack and defense was only in a flash.

They were so engrossed in the battle that they lost their minds.

In Aegron's eyes, the whole world had sunk into darkness, with only the square inch around him and his opponent in his eyes. As the blades collided again and again, he unconsciously laughed-he hadn't been so happy for a long time. pass.

What is he fighting for?

In order to win, to prove their skills, and to overwhelm those who dare to challenge them...

Apart from that, he does not fight for any other purpose.

Purely enjoying his own fun, for him, this is almost a new experience.

Maybe this is the value of freedom.

Two people in the sword, light, sword and shadow, you come and go, and you can't tell the winner for a while.

Of course, this is purely a contest of skills. Although both of them are full of momentum to completely defeat their opponents, they do not have any killing intent, nor do they have the determination to die if they are invincible, so they both have a bit of restraint.

At first, they each had some luck with their opponents, and felt that they should be able to win quickly, but after the beginning of the fight, by now, they have correctly recognized the strength of their opponents, so they are much more cautious.

The stormy attack rhythm at the beginning has slowed down, but because they are familiar with each other's opponent's style, their swords have become more tricky and more difficult to deal with.

With the passage of time, the physical strength of the two also declined rapidly, but Agron and Agnes still swung their swords, only expecting the opponent to fall before them.

Aigron only felt a little sore in his hands, and his eyes began to become a little hazy, but he did not flinch or fear, he gritted his teeth and continued to swing his sword, because he believed that the opponent's situation would be as uncomfortable as him, or even more uncomfortable than him. .

The more uncomfortable he became, the more aggressive he became. He stabbed the opponent's chest, and then took a step forward when Agnes swung his sword to block, and pressed down heavily.

Must bring you down!

Agnes also did not give in, staring at the young man fiercely, without flinching.

Although her hands and footsteps were no longer as light as before, she still swung away the opponent's sword with a sword, and then stabbed him in the abdomen.

"Chong!"

The crisp metallic sound resounded in the open space again, and Aegron only felt his hands numb.

"Stop!" At this moment, Alice shouted.

Alice has already seen that the two of them are almost reaching their limit. She is afraid that if they continue to fight, they will lose control and cause a terrible tragedy - after all, they are holding weapons that can really take people's lives.

Her screams woke up the two people who were already interested.

Aigron responded.

He remembered that he had promised Alice to stop whenever she called.

Yes, it can stop there.

He took a few steps back and took the initiative to distance himself from Agnes, and Agnes seemed to have the same mind as him, and took a few steps back in the opposite direction. The two ended their duel like this. .

Aigron breathed a sigh of relief, then put down the sword in his hand.

Only then did he realize that his left hand was so numb that he almost lost consciousness, and he even suspected that he would not be able to hold the cutlery until dinner.

But it doesn't matter, he's happy.

Although there is still some unfinished business, but he is satisfied enough.

He was breathing heavily, his chest heaving and heaving, but he quickly regained control of his body, and then he looked up to confirm Agnes' state.

Sure enough, Agnes is also a little embarrassed now. Although she is trying hard to hide her weakness, Agron can clearly see that her hands are shaking slightly, and she is breathing uncontrollably.

Her skirt was already scattered, and the amber hairpin she just wore on her head had fallen to the ground at some point, causing her long hair to pour down to the back of her head like a waterfall.

And her eyes were still stubbornly staring at herself, as if she wanted to prove that she could still win the competition.

Still cute... He couldn't help but smile.

Before escaping Vienna, he had a duel with his teacher, Captain Foresti. The two fought with their lives in the snow, and finally he put the sword into the teacher's body with his own hands.

At that time, he could do everything in order to win, because there was only one way for him to go.

But now his mood is different.

He was relieved that he believed that he should be able to win in the end, but he felt that it had lost the meaning of learning from each other - in the end, as their bodies reached the limit, they could no longer restrain each other's proportions, and then they would fight. There will be casualties.

It wasn't a life-and-death fight. Since both sides had already had a good time and Alice had spoken out to stop it, there was no need to continue.

"Miss Agnes, you are really powerful." Agron put away his sword, then bowed and saluted Agnes, "I have to admit that you have the same strength as me."

"I... I can win..." Agnes pouted stubbornly, but her slightly trembling voice revealed her weakness at the moment.

Aigron didn't answer, just looked at her with a smile.

After a while, perhaps Agnes felt guilty and had to bow her head, "Okay, you are really good, I admit that you are similar to me!"

Then she couldn't help laughing, picked up the umbrella from the ground, and put the sword into the umbrella.

Then, she walked in front of the young man and looked at him curiously.

"It seems that you are not bragging, you really have the strength to dare to say what you just said..."

"Am I so untrustworthy in your heart?" Aegron couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"No... I certainly didn't mean that..." Agnes looked a little embarrassed, "You know, some frivolous guys in Paris like to brag the most, and they like to put on a show in front of others even though they can't do anything. You look amazing, there are several people like me who have challenged me and have been taught a lesson by me, so when I saw you say that just now, I thought you were the same..."

At this time, she has recovered, her breathing has been adjusted, and her hands are no longer shaking.

Aegron could only spread his hands, "Then I have now proved that I am different from them?"

"Yeah, it's different, it's much more powerful." Agnes raised her left hand and raised her thumb to pay tribute to the young man, "I apologize to you, Mr. Memmingen, I hope you can forgive me generously. My offense~"

After speaking, she raised her head and looked at Aegron pitifully.

Although her mouth is stubborn and her character is strong and unwilling to admit defeat, on the other hand, she is quite open-minded and can afford to let go.

Since she said so, of course Aegron wouldn't care about such trivial matters.

But he was in a good mood at this time, and he couldn't help but want to tease the other party.

"Do you just want to dismiss the humiliation of my personality in a few words?" He deliberately sullen.

"Then how can you be satisfied?" Agnes was a little anxious.

"I want you to stand still for ten seconds as punishment." Aegron said word by word, "In this way, I will forgive your mistakes."

"Is that all?" Agnes froze for a moment, then couldn't help laughing again, "Okay, then I won't move."

After she finished speaking, she immediately fulfilled the agreement and stood still.

Aigron, on the other hand, took advantage of the situation and moved forward, bowing his head and pounced on her.

"Hey!" Agnes was shocked.

With surprise came anger, her body tensed instantly, and then her hand clenched the umbrella in her hand.

Although her hand is still very sore, it is not difficult to swing the sword again to defend herself.

Just when she was about to swing her sword and cut down this shameless guy, she was stunned to find that the young man was not pounced on her, but at her feet.

Then she clearly found that the young man bent down and picked up an object from the grass.

The golden amber stone is shining lubriciously in the sun.

-Isn't this my hairpin...? It was only at this time that Agnes realized that she had just dropped this thing during the battle.

Then, while she was still in a daze, Aigron had already stood in front of her, and then, as if giving a laurel crown, put the hairpin she had just dropped on the ground back on her head.

It only took him a few seconds, so he still had a few seconds left...of course he didn't do anything, just stood silently in front of him, waiting for the time to pass.

And Agnes seemed to be at a loss during this period of time, with surprise and hesitation in her eyes, as well as a little bit of annoyance at being pranked, but she finally decided to keep her own promise, and never moved, originally tense body also relaxed.

Maybe only a few seconds, maybe a long time, Agron nodded to Agnes with a smile on his face.

"Ten seconds have come, Miss Agnes."

"You really know how to joke!" Agnes finally spoke, and she gave the young man a vicious look.

"This is the compensation I have the right to ask for, isn't it?" Aegron replied with a smile. "You just made a promise, and I didn't do anything to harm you—"

Agnes was a little embarrassed, but she didn't retort, she just frowned and stared at each other.

She had already discovered that although she could be on an equal footing with the opponent in terms of swordsmanship, her ability to argue with words was indeed far inferior, so she gave up her plan to quarrel with him.

"Okay, I'm very happy today... In fact, I haven't been this happy for a long time." Aigron nodded to the other party again, "I thank you, and I hope to have the opportunity to enjoy the same fun again in the future-"

"I'm also very happy, it's been a long time since I had such a fun comparison." Agnes' anger disappeared, and she agreed with the young man's words.

Then, she changed the topic again, "You are so powerful, you must have been instructed by a famous teacher, can you tell me who your teacher is? Of course, if you don't want to disclose, then I won't ask, this is just to satisfy Just curious."

"Captain Foresty." Aigron answered directly without any hesitation.

There's nothing to hide anyway.

"Is that the Austrian?" Agnes was a little surprised.

"You actually know him?" Agron was even more surprised.

He originally thought that the captain was just an ordinary Austrian officer, and Agnes had no reason to have heard his name, but unexpectedly miscalculated.

"I just heard my teacher mention this name... He said that he is a very powerful expert. Of course, there are a lot of names mentioned at the same time, so I only heard about it." Agnes smiled embarrassedly. He smiled, "It now seems that he must be very powerful if he can teach an apprentice like you..."

"It's quite powerful." Aegron replied with a wry smile, "However, he went to the battlefield and was injured in the Battle of Wagram, so it can be seen that no matter how powerful he is, he can't compare to guns."

"That said, but it's fascinating." Agnes raised her umbrella gently, then waved it slowly, "Personal force may not be enough to change the outcome of a war, But... can't we be happy?"

"That's right, this is also my personal hobby." Aigron nodded.

Agnes looked at the young man again.

"So, are you from Austria...?" she asked in a strange tone after a moment.

"Yes, yes." Aegron replied succinctly. "I'm here to join my relatives and take a break in Switzerland for a while."

"Are you really a relative of the farm owner?" Agnes hesitated, then asked, "I don't think so...you seem to be out of place here, more like an aristocrat, and from Judging from your knowledge and demeanor, you should not come from an ordinary noble family. Ah, my God...!"

Aegron laughed without saying a word.

It seems that even Agnes, who is as insensitive to politics, should have something to think about when it comes to this.

But what does it matter?

Since Alice wouldn't tell him, Agnes certainly wouldn't either.

Agnes seemed to think of something, then opened her eyes wide and stared at Agron in disbelief.

Then, she slowly turned her head again and looked at her sister and brother-in-law in the distance, as if she wanted them to explain to herself.

Alice in the distance also smiled and nodded to Agnes, signaling her to calm down first.

"It seems that she has a very speculative talk with His Majesty," Edgar whispered coldly.

"Yeah, I feel like they can become friends." Alice nodded. "Even aside from his Majesty's identity, he is enough to be a friend... This is an honor for Agnes."

"Then Agnes may be even more honored..." Edgar blinked, seeming to be moved, "If Your Majesty is willing... You see she is really cute, and she is also interested in His Majesty. ."

"Where did you go!" Alice glared at her husband.

Then, she shook her head, "I wouldn't do that... Agnes is my dear sister, not a bargain, she should have her own life, and we don't need to rely on her to please Your Majesty. Besides, Your Majesty Don't you have a fiancée?"

"He has abandoned the princess." Edgar looked disapproving. "Otherwise, how could he get here?"

"Then it's not our turn to worry about him! If he really achieves great things, then there are so many princesses in Europe for him to choose and wear crowns, what does it have to do with Agnes?" Alice seemed a little angry, " Edgar, I don't want you to talk about this again. I repeat, only Agnes herself can decide her future life! Just as I decided to marry you instead of obeying my father's betrothed to someone else."

Seeing his wife's rare anger, Edgar hurriedly smiled. "Honey, don't be angry, I'm just joking...don't take it to heart."
