Eternally Regressing Knight Chapter 745

745. The day I dreamed of

“The article is not over.”

At Encred’s words, Fel lifted his head. His cheek was bruised and his arms were hanging down.
His muscles were cramping from the blows to his shoulders and elbows. He couldn’t raise his arms.
The fight between the training sword and the idol slayer was simple.

‘Avoid and hit.’

It’s the basic principle of swordsmanship. You need to use your feet a lot for that.
Fel also knows this, but after being hit, he wondered if what he had known up until now was right.
Instead of using his feet a lot, Encred saw through the attack and struck faster and harder to ward off his own attack.
Why did it end up like this?
A flower of doubt bloomed brightly in his mind. And when he began to wonder, Encred’s words struck him.
A knight is not the end, but the beginning.
Now, he would be considered one of the best in the wilderness, but not here.
Encred still swings his sword like a madman every day. Everyone who was influenced by him trained repeatedly. That’s what Fel saw every day.
With one training session, his omnipotence was reduced to a reasonable level, and Fel distinguished between what he could and could not do.

“What about that guy, Lawford?”

Among the things he could do, there was one thing he could do now, which was to beat up Lawford.
Pel found Lawford, and Lawford entered the Knights’ Training Grounds a day later. Naturally, he also broke through the wall.
The difference between him and Pel was that Pel was intoxicated with omnipotence, but Lawford had overcome that process.

‘There are a lot of monsters around.’

All the mad knights, including Encred, were good milestones and targets.
Lawford had seen them and considered what they had done, so he was not intoxicated with a sense of omnipotence.
This was a process that came from the difference in their personalities, not the difference in ability.
In fact, Lawford had not yet been able to clearly distinguish what he could do.
In any case, both Pel and Lawford had now learned how to use Will naturally, and so they still treated each other as the greatest competitors.

“You’re barely catching up.”

Pel said with a wicked laugh.

“Who is who?”
“You are me?”
“Who am I?”
“Oh, would you feel better if I denied it?”
“Who am I?”

The verbal quarrel between Fel and Lawford was endearing. It was also endearing to see them fight with swords.
Of course, one of the soldiers who came to deliver the letter was a little surprised to see the two fighting, but if you enter the knights’ training ground, you shouldn’t be surprised at this level.
They often saw Rem and Ragnar, Rem and Audyn, Rem and Saxon fighting, so they should have developed a tolerance for this.
The letter was from the Eastern Pioneer King.

-Dunbakel didn’t wash for a month and then broke the wall.

Why is the content like this?
There were many things that happened in the East, but the main content was Dunbakel.
These days in the East, it is called the Golden-Eyed Lion.
They won’t give it to you anymore, so if you want to go find it, you have to go through some trouble.
That’s what it said.

‘I never arrested him in the first place.’

If Dunbakel decides to stay in the East, I will respect her decision. It is not something I would go looking for unless Anu forces me to keep her.
Of course, I will ask her at least once.

“Are you busy?”

After reading the letter, Shinar came to see me.

“If you’re not busy, let’s play together.”

It wasn’t really a playful message, but a twisted truth unique to fairies.
They had called Encred from the fairy village. They had something to give him.
Before leaving, I saw that Fel and Lawford were sparring at a reasonable level, testing each other’s strengths.
When they became knights, their individual characteristics stood out more.
Then there would be no need to kill each other.
And this was the knights’ training grounds. Even if it wasn’t him, there was someone who could stop them at the last minute.

“Yes, that’s right.”
“What an interesting person you’ve become. My fiancé.”

Shinar’s eyes widened as he saw her standing up. He didn’t know why she was smiling, but the fairy’s smile was like a thief stealing the hearts of humans.
Of course, Encrid could look at it indifferently.
When you become a knight, your mental power also becomes different.
If your mind wavers, your body wavers too.
Once you know this principle, you will develop the habit of calming your mind at any time.
When you enter the fairy city under Shinar’s guidance, Woodguard Bran is the first to greet you.

Ouch.

White smoke rises from his mouth. The tree is holding a flame.

“Do you still smoke cigarettes?”
“It’s a demon. Once you start smoking, it’s hard to quit.”

As I passed the tree fairy guarding the entrance to the city and smoking a cigarette, one of the fire-handling clans from before followed me from a distance with a nod.
This was not the end. The eyes of the fairies were all following me.
Encred was the hero who saved the city of fairies and was their idol.
Everyone had gathered to see his face.

“Everyone has eyes to see.”

Sinar looked around at them and said, the satisfaction in his voice must have been an illusion.

“Isn’t everyone busy?”

A group of fairies chasing her from a distance, making only rustling sounds, just staring blankly between the bushes and trees. It
might seem scary at first glance, but Encred let it go.
It was better than being forced to attend a ball and being surrounded by dozens of ladies.
At least they were watching from a distance.
Then, the representative of the fairy clan stepped forward.
Encred forgot the middle-aged fairy’s name again.
It seemed like it was a similar situation when he woke up after killing the One Killer.
He barely remembered and asked.

“Ermen?”
“I got it right this time.”

He nods with a satisfied smile.

“Do you often forget my name?”

As Sinar blurted out words from beside him, Encred suddenly remembered the past.
The fairy was still mischievous then and now, but he himself had changed since then, so he could now accept such words calmly.

‘Quite a bit of time has passed.’

There are more things to protect, but the things I have protected have also increased. It would be a lie to say I am not proud.

“Was your name Janar?”
“You got hit.”

Shinar smiled at the joke. Unlike before, the fairy smiled often.

“Take it.”

Ermen had called Encred to give him a gift. The clan leader handed him a folded cloth.
When he took it and unfolded it, the cloth swayed in the wind. It was a dark green cloak.

‘Vitality?’

Encred felt the life force emanating from the cloak, as if from trees or blades of grass.

“As soon as we settled in here, Druids spent months spinning yarn and pouring his heart into it.”

The dark green cloak seemed to be radiating a soft light. Encred draped it over his shoulders.
The length, which had been down to his thighs, stretched out on its own to cover his ankles.

‘It’s a cloak imbued with a spell.’

The length was adjustable, and the inside of the cloak filled with the fresh scent of grass.
It was an item that made me feel like I was taking a forest bath just by wearing it.
Originally, a cloak was not a tool needed for fighting, but knights used it as a necessary tool.
Even the Knights of the Red Cloak used their cloaks as a tool to block spells.
You can tell just by looking at it. It was an item filled with sincerity and heart.
Strangely, I thought of the boots I received from the shoemaker.
He also gave me the best I could within my ability.
Just like the elf clan now.

“It looks nice. Especially the color.”

The symbol of the Knights Templar changed slightly from a blue cloak to a dark green cloak.
The Border Guard’s step pattern was already engraved on the cloak, as if it was intended for something.

“What? Change the color of the cloak?”

On the way back, Chrys saw him passing by and asked, and Encrid nodded.

“That’s what happened.”

Meanwhile, Shinar was following along three steps behind with eyes full of anticipation.

“Grass color is love.”

Shinar smiled and said with satisfaction. He seemed very happy that he had the fairy symbol on him.
He received precious gifts, and in the afternoon, Esther asked him to go out with her to look around the market.
It was a rare event, so he nodded and walked around the market.

“It brings smiles to people’s faces. It’s amazing.”

Esther observes humans. She now sees and knows things she had not noticed or missed when she was in the forest.
In her view, this city is full of abundance.

“Hey, buy something.”

Then I saw a giant sitting on a bench.

“Why are you here?”

I also saw Seiki selling herbs and such.
A girl with saintly divinity was digging up herbs and selling them. Seiki originally lived as a ranger, so she was used to sorting out and digging up herbs.

“How long are you going to live off of this with a healthy body? People need to have a job.”

It is good to live a life of playing, eating, training one’s character, and just looking at the stars in the mountains, but one must be wary of boredom and not forget to be diligent.
It is an attitude that contains one’s own thoughts and principles.

“Huh? Uncle?”

Then Encrid met his lost uncle again.

“Hic.”

I forgot his name. His appearance was different than before. He had his beard neatly trimmed, his hair cut short, and he seemed to have lost weight.
But I couldn’t forget that expression. My pupils were unfocused and my mouth was wide open.
Once, Encred was a friend of Leona, the head of the Lokfrid Merchant Association, and he had boasted that he was the uncle of the Iron Knight. He was also a merchant who had been caught harassing the Merchant Association led by Enri and got beaten up.
It was strange that I could not forget Malton while easily forgetting Ermen’s name, but how could my mind be structured like this?

“The knight of iron wall.”

Encred nodded at his muttered words.

“It’s nice to see you again, you’ve changed a lot though. What about the allowance?”

Malton was living a different life than before. It was different from the days when he lived with poison like a toad.

“Yes, as much as you need.”

Malton says with his eyes focused.
Something has changed.
Encred nodded in recognition. People change. It could happen.
I heard that he is currently working as a merchant under the Lokfrid Group.
A merchant is a leader of several merchants. Among them, peddling was his specialty.

“I’ve been to that village too.”

Encred even told him about the village of hermits he had visited before.

“He said that I was always welcome and that I could come whenever I wanted. He said that he had not forgotten my kindness.”

Well, it was not exciting, but it was warm news.
From Dunbakel to the hermit village.
Today seemed to be a day when I heard interesting stories here and there.

“The hot apple pie just arrived. Would you like to take it?”

Then he passed by and talked to the innkeeper, Allen.
Vanessa, who had more wrinkles than before, sat on a chair in front of the inn and called him.
Several fruit vendors greeted him.
The shoemaker smiled, saying it had been a long time since he had seen him.
I had dreamed of such a day.

An apple seller who cut out the rotten parts of apples and gave them to others.
An old waitress who roasted potatoes over a campfire .
A hunched, swearing old woman who once sold her body.
A mercenary who ran away from fighting and battles and dreams of peaceful days.

It was a day where Encrid walked around and greeted everyone and spent the day in a place where they could all smile.
Today, swinging the sword was more fun than usual, and joking with Shinar was also fun.
Esther talked a lot about seeing new things as a witch. Should I call this chatter? She talked more than usual.

“I’m a little free today. So, here it is. Here’s the salon plan.”

It seemed as if Crys was on the verge of realizing his dream.
He said that if there were a group of nobles gathered within the Border Guard, they would need a place to talk.
Leona also saw it in the middle.

“That’s not what I brought from the village I found this time. Let’s talk later.”

Kin Baisar was also there with him.

“It seemed like several ladies who were after you were sighing.”

As I walked with Esther, there were quite a few stares that followed me, probably referring to them.
The sun was clear, the clouds were moderate, and the sky was blue.
When I returned to the Border Guard training grounds, I saw Ragnar teaching something to ten of his men.
Encred had told me about the system for training knights, and I had applied some of it.

“Let’s not just fight over feelings today, let’s have a real showdown.”

The duel with Rem before dinner was also fun. I was drenched in sweat, and Rem’s wit, which burst out every now and then, always threw my calculations out of whack.
Even that confusion was once again accepted as part of the realm of tactics.

“yes.”

After Luagarne was impressed and the sparring was over, I had to talk to her for hours.
In a city full of things to protect, there are those who are with me.
This is the day I dreamed of.
And in the dream, the boatman appeared. Then he made a suggestion.

“Not a future of loss, resentment, and despair awaits you, but a today of contentment and joy. Take your own life before you go to bed. That’s it.”

Yes, the boatman’s suggestion sounded reasonable to Encred now.
