Tomb Survival: Evolve from Skeleton

"I lost."

A calm and rational voice sounded, and the originally boiling arena became strangely calm because of this voice...

"...I don't have the strength to fight anymore."

Kress, who stood proudly on the other side of the arena, had already sheathed the long sword in his hand.

Almost all viewers don't get it.

On the other hand, looking at the current situation of the two, it is obvious that Lancer is at the end of his battle, his armor is broken and detached, his body is seriously injured, and even his identity as a woman has been exposed.

As for Kress, there were only a few tiny cracks on the armor. How could it be that he lost?

The host of the Knights Tournament was also at a loss.

But after seeing that Kress had started to turn and leave, he had to announce——

"In the Hesmu City Knights Tournament, the winner of the final laurel is the Freedom Ride... "Silver White" Lancer."

The host originally wanted to say "Freedom Knight", but after a brief pause, he changed it to the nickname "Silver White".

And Lancer, who heard the last voice, also fell to the ground, looking... like a proud warrior after a bloody battle.

It's just that, compared with Kress who left voluntarily, Lancer is more like a loser who is really unable to fight anymore.

……

Outside the Hirschwood Arena.

This time, led by the Jesker family, it was the most grand knightly tournament in the history of the kingdom, and it was also the one with the widest spread.

Not only because of the wonderful duel of knights, nor because of the mysterious drunkard swordsman of the empire, which made this game mixed with a bit of fighting between countries, but, the one who won the knight crown in the end... was a woman!
……

"Kress!"

Not long after the tournament ended and the arena staff took over to evacuate the emotionally agitated audience in the Kingdom, an unexpected visitor came to the lone knight lounge where Kress was.

The silver-white armor on Lancer's body was still a few broken pieces, and even the scattered long red-brown hair hadn't had time to tie it completely before it appeared in front of Kress.

Obviously, Lancer rushed over immediately after regaining consciousness.

"...You, why did you admit defeat?!"

Lancer's words were obviously angry, and he was not at all happy that he had won a huge bonus and the title of "The First Knight of the Kingdom".

And Kress, who was about to pack up his things and leave, stopped because of Lancer's sudden arrival.

"Mr. Lancer...Miss, since I voluntarily admit defeat, it is because I am unable to fight anymore..."

"fart!"

Even though Lancer has just recovered from the coma, he can still clearly feel the pain from the previous energy shock and the side effects caused by the "crazy battle".

But even so, Lancer directly cursed with a grumpy face...

"...The chivalry you think you are, is it because you find out that I am a woman, so you stop fighting?!"

Lancer seemed furious. She knew that she had no ability to fight anymore, but...

As a person with the blood of ancient heroes flowing in her body, she is unwilling to win such a victory given by others!
Kress looked indifferent...

He ignored the woman who was slightly shorter than him, put the things in his hand into the storage bag, and walked slowly outside the arena.

"Kress!"

Lancer tried to stop the other party aloud, and she needed a reason that she could also convince herself.

only……

Kress didn't want to explain.

At this moment, Rubia, the knight attendant who hurried over from the attic to watch the battle, also saw Kress leaving and Lancer behind him...

"Master Kress! Be careful behind..."

Rubia exclaimed and reminded that behind Kress, Lancer had already raised the epee he had dragged...

"bump!"

The two knights' long swords collided again, and Kress had obviously sensed it a long time ago. Otherwise, with Rubia's belated reminder, it would be impossible to achieve such a perfect defensive counterattack.

"Miss Lancer, I admire your fighting ability and will, and it's not surprising that you lost to you..."

Kress's voice was rational, but even if it sounded like heaven at the moment, Lancer would not believe it.

Lancer, only believe what you feel!

Fighting energy collided with death energy, and the two separated...

Lancer's face was obviously a little pale, which made her, who had always shown a strong attitude, show a kind of pity for the first time... although Lancer never needed this kind of thing.

Rubia rushed over in a hurry, trying to win a powerful terrain opportunity for Kress, and said loudly to Lancer with his hips on his hips——

"You bastard, you really don't know what to do! If Mr. Kress continued to fight, you wouldn't be able to survive at all, okay? Now you can't control yourself!..."

Rubia hadn't finished all of her words, but Kress put a hand on his shoulder to signal to stop.

With Rubia backing away, Kress began to speak honestly——

"Miss Lancer, I don't have any disrespectful intentions towards you, and I don't care whether you are a woman or a man. I have caused you to suffer enough injuries when you broke my armor. The glory of the champion , you deserve it."

After Kress finished speaking, he turned and left without any extra explanation...

Lancer looked at the back of the other party leaving, and forgot the words for a moment.

"correct……"

Kress stopped suddenly, turned to Lancer and added——

"...The reminder you gave me that time, I should also give it to you. You shouldn't be intertwined with the Jesk family."

After the last words fell, Kress left slowly.

Rubia on the side also followed Kress, heading for the location of the "Golden Shining Hall".

"Kress, you are the only one who has ever beaten me, and I will beat you!"

Lancer yelled at Kress's leaving back, with mixed emotions...

"...I will defeat you! I will!"

……

Hesmoor City.

City streets.

As a Mithril-level adventurer and the top adventurer team in the Hesmu City branch, "Dawn" captain Kress will undoubtedly become the focus of discussion in any corner of Hesmu City.

But now, even through the curtain of the carriage, Kress could still hear the loud discussions of traders and pedestrians in other places.

It's all about the finals of the Cavaliers Tournament. Kress, who clearly has an absolute advantage, will take the initiative to admit defeat!
and……

"Silver" Lancer, who has always been famous in the kingdom, turned out to be a woman!

All of this is far more outrageous and legendary than Kress' defeat of the mysterious swordsman of the empire yesterday.

The rarer things tend to spread more quickly and widely.
