"This child Fiona..." Jarvan III laughed, "It's really hard for Sebastian, with such a worry-free daughter, this trouble will bring chaos to the Crown Guard's family and the Laurent family. "

Jarvan III removed the chess piece. "That Laurent daughter named Fiona is so scary? I think you all think of her as a monster."

"Of course it's not a monster, but it's almost the same." Jarvan III shook his head and said, "Last year, this king went to see the competition of the younger generation, although you and Garen, who were already in the army, didn't participate, Ben The king thought that the tournament would be boring, but after all, it was a conference held by various nobles, so I attended it anyway."

Jarvan III nodded. In recent years, the war with Noxus has become more and more tense, and the barbarians of the northern Freljord have become more and more rampant. In addition, the Silas incident in Biangou Town a few years ago has made the mage more and more violent. The problem became more serious. Demacia, who was suffering from internal and external troubles, started military reforms. The truly talented and capable younger generation in the nobles joined the army early for training, and even he was a prince. So the so-called competition The meeting should be just a pastime with little gold content.

Jia Wen III sighed, with a complex look in his eyes: "But this king didn't expect that, I thought it would be boring to think about the competition, but instead I saw a wonderful scene."

"Fiona of Laurent..." Jarvan IV had heard a little about this girl's deeds, "I heard that she was brilliant in the tournament?"

"It's more than just a show." Jarvan III patted his leg and said, "She beat all the people who participated in the competition into pig heads! Everyone crying and calling their mothers is a shame for the Demacians."

"Is she so strong? A girl?" Jarvan IV was very interested. He also knew many strong female warriors in the army, but the environment of the army was different from that of the nobles. It was between hard training and comfortable life. The difference between them, nobles who have not joined the army must have strong self-control if they want to become stronger.

"The swordsmanship of the Laurent family is not suitable for the battlefield, but it is unmatched in dueling." Jarvan III stroked his beard, "but Fiona's swordsmanship, even in the army, has at least reached the level of a sword captain. ."

Jarvan IV was a little surprised, it must be extraordinary to be evaluated by his father like this.

He looked at Xin Zhao again: "Uncle, did you see it too?"

Xin Zhao nodded: "Reporting to His Royal Highness, I will go with His Majesty the King to see it."

"What do you think of that Fiona."

"The talent is outstanding, there is no one in the ten thousand, given time, it will become a great weapon."

Jarvan IV was even more surprised that Xin Zhao rated the girl a little too high, even higher than he rated him.

Jarvan IV suddenly became interested: "It seems that I have to go and see this duel."

Jia Wen III also nodded and said, "The father will also go with you. You rarely come back from the army. You should accompany the father more."

"Yes," Jarvan IV asked Xin Zhao. "When will the duel begin?"

"Three days later."

"It's still too late." Jarvan III thought for a while. "By the way, what about Robert, who is a sideline of the Crown Guard family? He should have some skills if he dares to accept a duel with Fiona?"

Jarvan III also said: "Yes, what about Robert? Why doesn't this king have any impression of him, did he not come to the last competition?"

"Report to Your Majesty." Zhao Tao said, "Mr. Robert of the Crown Guard family appeared in the competition last year."

"Really? Why don't I remember?"

"Because he was defeated by Miss Fiona like everyone else."

King Jarvan IV was a little unconvinced: "He certainly won't be that bad, right? Why don't you let him accept the challenge?"

Xin Zhao hesitated for a moment: "I have seen Robert's swordsmanship, with all due respect...he is not a martial artist. Contrary to Miss Fiona, his talent is quite poor."

Jia Wen and his son looked at each other.

That being the case...

How dare that Robert accept this duel?

—————————————————————————————————————————————

More than 700 years after the founding of Demacia, the throne has been hereditary, and the Light Shield family has always been a member of the royal family.

- Battle of Noxus

Chapter 661 Duel Venue

Dragon hunting grounds.

It is named after the place where dragon birds were once domesticated. Although the army no longer domesticates dragon birds here, the name has remained.

The stage for the duel has been set up, and most of the nobles of the Xiongdu have attended the duel, all of them are here to watch the fun.

"His Majesty the King is here! His Royal Highness is here!"

Following the shouts of the guards, the nobles stood up and saluted.

Jarvan III and Jarvan IV got down from the carriage and took their seats in front of everyone's eyes, with Xin Zhao following closely behind Jarvan III and protecting him.

Jarvan III was expressionless. In public, he was accustomed to being unsmiling. As a king, being too easy-going is not a good thing, and he needs enough majesty.

"Thanks to His Majesty the King and His Royal Highness the Prince for coming." Sebastian, as the patriarch of the duel side, saluted Jarvan and his son.

On the other side, the representative of the Crown Guard family had the same luggage, but she was not Catherine, but another stern looking blond middle-aged woman.

Tiana. Crown Guard, Marshal of Demacia, one of the highest-ranking members of the Crown Guard family.

Catherine, as a collateral line, cannot represent the Crown Guard family. At this time, she stood quietly beside Tiana without saying a word.

"If I rush over and kill the old king now, it will definitely cause a big panic..." Evelyn, disguised as Catherine, thought.

But Evelyn just thought about it. Rorschach didn't like her rash actions. She had already failed once in the cloud, and if she made trouble again, Rorschach might really kill Evelyn directly.

Moreover, that old king is not very easy to kill.

Not to mention that Evelyn had already discovered a lot of guards lurking in the shadows, the foreign man behind Jarvan III alone made Evelyn feel that he was extraordinary.

The man was high-spirited, but deep and restrained. At first glance, he was a man of firm mind.

What the devil hates the most is a person with a firm mind, and it is difficult to do any harm to such a person.

But Evelyn was more worried about another thing now.

The guard was clearly Ionian in appearance.

"Rorschach sees him...wouldn't he have any thoughts about his own background..." Evelyn knew that Rorschach's original identity was an Ionian-looking boy.

"Viscount Catherine." While Evelyn was thinking about it, King Jarvan III had already exchanged a few words with Tiana and Sebastian, and began to talk to her, "What do you think your son will have in this duel? ?"

Evelyn smiled lightly: "Your Majesty, I naturally believe in Inuzi. I think Inuzi will definitely win."

As soon as Evelyn said this, everyone's expressions were different.

Jarvan and his son were interested, Tiana was still expressionless, but Sebastian was pessimistic.

Sebastian knew how strong his daughter's swordsmanship was, she had grown to a point that surprised him, and it was almost impossible for Robert to win.

Jarvan III asked Sebastian and Tiana what they thought.

Sebastian smiled bitterly and said something against his heart: "I think Robert will win."

Tiana said unselfishly: "Fiona has a better chance of winning."

Jarvan IV thought this scene was very interesting. Usually, both sides of the duel would brag about their players, but Sebastian and Tiana both supported the opponent's players.

It can be seen that the Laurent family represented by Sebastian wants Fiona to lose, and the Crownguard family represented by Tiana does not seem to welcome a girl with such an extreme personality to become a member of the Crownguard family. .

The nature of this duel is rather strange.

King Jarvan IV tapped the armrest with his fingers. Fiona's strength seemed to be recognized as strong, so the variable in this matchup was the strength of that Robert.

He seemed to be beaten by Fiona last year, so what about this year?

Could it be that he has practiced martial arts for a year with pain and pain? But practicing martial arts is not something that can be achieved overnight. How much growth can be achieved with hard training in a year?

Just as Jarvan IV was thinking about it, Jarvan III suddenly spoke to Tiana: "Tiana, why didn't your little niece come?"

Tiana nodded and said, "Unfortunately, Laxana was still studying at the Glorious Envoy during this period of time, so she couldn't come."

"That's a pity." Jia Wen III said, "I want my son to meet her."

King Jarvan IV raised his brows and said to himself, "Marshal Tiana's niece... Laksana... seems to be Garen's sister... Why do you want to meet me... Is it possible that the father wants her to be with me... …”

Jarvan IV knew in his heart that the Light Shield family and the Crown Guard family had been friends for generations, and it was normal for them to marry each other. Father King and Tiana moved through Jarvan IV and Laxanna to make the relationship between the two families closer. mind.

"Laxana..." Jarvan IV vaguely remembered that he had seen that girl when he was a child, a few years younger than himself, a crying little girl who followed Garen's ass, Jarvan IV's impression of her She was the only one with beautiful blonde hair.

"Political marriage..." Jarvan IV sighed slightly in his heart, "If it is possible... I still want to marry the woman I like... But if it is beneficial to Demacia, accept it..."

As Jarvan IV thought so, the duel began.

Under everyone's attention, the two protagonists of the duel, Robert and Fiona, entered the arena.

Fiona was fully dressed, wearing the Laurent family's iconic gorgeous duel costume, with feathers on her shoulders, a small cape on her back, and a rapier on her waist.

Everyone who saw Fiona couldn't help but their eyes lit up. They had to say that although this girl caused a whole mess, she was indeed a heroic woman.

Robert on the other side looked very ordinary in comparison. He didn't have gorgeous clothes, and his temperament was much weaker than Fiona, and he only held an ordinary broad sword in his hand.

"This duel is not about life and death! It's only about winners and losers!" a notary judge said loudly, "Take it all the way! Don't take the opponent's life! Don't cause serious damage to the opponent! Otherwise, the decision will be lost! The two of you will know!"

"clear."

"clear."

"Then I announce! The duel officially begins!"

Fiona drew out the rapier, raised the sword with her right hand, and put her left hand behind her back.

This is not because Fiona is releasing water, but this is the standard posture of the Laurent family's swordsmanship.

The lightweight rapier is enough to swing with one hand, and the other hand is not responsible for attacking, but is used to maintain the balance of the body.

"Dare to accept the challenge, I remember your courage, and thank you for it." Fiona said, "If you insist on not accepting the challenge, I can't force you."

"I still want our marriage to be happier." Rorschach smiled, "If a duel can make you accept all the results, then so be it."

"As you wish, if you win this duel, I will marry you without complaint." Fiona started to tiptoe, ready to attack at any time, "But I won't hold back, you are ready Just tell me."

Rorschach nodded, and he assumed a standard sword-raising posture: "I'm ready."

Fiona moved.

Her body was as light as a swallow, approaching Rorschach with dazzling speed, and the tip of her sword pointed directly at Rorschach's vital point.

"Robert has lost."

Chapter 662 The unexpected ending

At the beginning of the duel, Fiona made a move, and all the people with high attainments in martial arts, such as Jarvan and his son, Xin Zhao, Tiana, and Sebastian, saw that the outcome was decided.

Although Robert has already put on a standard swordsmanship stance, holding the sword in both hands and standing in front of him, this stance is a relatively conservative starting style, which can attack and retreat, defend and block.

In the face of the Laurent family's offensive-minded knife, passive defense is actually a good strategy, but the difference in swordsmanship and experience between the two sides is exposed at this time.

Fiona chose a snake-shaped sword path very cunningly. The sudden left and right sword path made Robert unable to calculate the direction of her attack at all, and she didn't know where to block with the pose, so she could only be blind. to the right.

But Fiona's blade had already spared Robert's right line of defense and invaded his defenseless arms.

All the audience sighed and were amazed at the speed of Fiona's offensive. Most of the people sitting couldn't even see Fiona's movements. It is hard to imagine that this is a young girl who already has so powerful.

And the masters of prostitution martial arts such as Jarvan IV have seen the doorway - Fiona's swordsmanship has reached the realm of transformation, and can even be compared with her father Sebastian.

Considering Fiona's age, this achievement is incredible, and it is conceivable that Demacia will have a powerful female swordsman in the future.

However, it is a pity that Fiona practiced duel swordsmanship, which is not good at the battlefield. No matter how high her achievements are in the future, she can only be a high-ranking official in Xiongdu to protect the members of the royal family.

But even so, Fiona's strength still amazed everyone, and Jarvan IV even had the urge to go off the court and compete with Fiona in person.

Everyone was amazed at Fiona's performance, and the other protagonist of the duel, Robert, was completely ignored.

He will surely lose.

The tip of Fiona's sword had already pierced Robert's body.

Ding!

But the sword did not pierce.

A muffled collision sounded, and Fiona's sword tip was bounced off.

There was an uproar.

King Jarvan IV was taken aback: "Is it possible that Robert has cultivated some martial arts that can make his body hard against swords?"

Everyone looked at Tiana, the stern female marshal said indifferently at this time: "The Crown Guard family does not have such martial skills."

Just when everyone was wondering, Fiona on the field said angrily: "Shameless! You actually came up in plate armor in a duel!"

Everyone looked at Robert, and as Fiona said, under the clothes pierced by the tip of her sword was a thick plate of dull silver light.

All the audience were dumbfounded.

It is still tacit approval to wear inner armor during a duel, but this is not a battlefield. Who would wear a plate armor?

And judging from the color of the plate armor, this is the best dark silver armor produced by Demacia.
