Chapter 498 Duel Request


Chapter 498 Duel Request

After promotion, the Earth Bear did not leave the competition ground, but walked towards the stands again.

The two teams of imperial guards responsible for protecting His Majesty the Emperor pressed their sword hilts upon seeing this, and the captain headed by him rushed to the Earth Bear Road.

"Stop, civilian, if you dare to take another step forward, I guarantee that your head will leave your neck!"

"It doesn't matter, Tolbert, let him come over. He is a priest of Cornelia and comes from the Boleslaw family. He is not a suspicious person." His Majesty the Emperor said.

The leading royal guard stepped aside after hearing this, but still did not remove his palm from the hilt of the sword.

Edward II said to the Earth Bear again, "Come here, come closer, let me have a good look. I haven't seen such a brave warrior for a long time."

The Earth Bear took two big steps forward, bowed and saluted respectfully to the Emperor and Queen.

"Very good, very good, come here, give him a hundred, no, two hundred golden lions. We should all thank him for the wonderful competition he just presented." The emperor said with satisfaction.

The Earth Bear saluted and thanked you again, "This is my honor, Your Majesty, my martial arts skills are nothing compared to yours."

"Hahahaha, why are you all so humble now?" Even so, it seemed from the look on Edward II's face that he was also very impressed. He paused and continued.

"I remember you, and I hope you can continue to work hard and continue to fight for honor and the final championship."

However, the Earth Bear did not take the two heavy bags of gold coins from the guards.

"Why, are you too young?" His Majesty the Emperor frowned.

"No, of course not, it's just that I want something else more than these gold coins."

"What?" Edward II asked curiously.

"I want your permission to duel a man."

After hearing these words, the second prince Claudio's face changed slightly, and Miss Rabbit in front of him also looked at him sympathetically.

However, Edward II was not stupid. He did not agree immediately, but asked, "Who do you want to duel with?"

"My duel partner is the lord of the green field, your personally appointed dragon-slaying knight, Sir Ilea from the Arias family." The Earth Bear said every word.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Ms. Rabbit, the person involved, was completely dumbfounded.

"Why do you want to challenge Sir Ilea?" the emperor continued to ask.

"Because she killed my nephew."

"Your nephew? I have never met your nephew, how could I kill him?" the female lord couldn't help but ask.

"My nephew's name is Maxin, and his nickname is Honey Bear. I wonder if you have some impression of Sir Ilea now?" There was an undisguised murderous intent in the eyes of the Earth Bear.

"Marcin has admired me since he was a child. Not long after I left the family, he was framed and soon expelled from the family. His original marriage to the daughter of Viscount Hammond also failed.

"After that, Maxin took their love token and went to the Western Region alone to become a mercenary. Then he accepted a commission to help a noble lady find her daughter."

“He didn’t take this commission too seriously at first, because the men in the Boleslaw family are very good at finding people, and he found the target easily.

"Unexpectedly, I was involved in a dangerous internal fight among the noble families, and ended up having my head chopped off by you and your men, Sir Ilea."

"The token of his and Dalia's love, a string of pearl necklaces, should still be in your hands now."

The Earth Bear said coldly, "I have no wife and no heirs. I have always regarded Maxin as my own son. I must avenge him."

"You're lying. Mi Xiong clearly came to arrest me on my stepmother's orders. It wasn't just a matter of asking someone to entrust me. Moreover, they were the ones who took action first."

The female lord retorted, "Merlin and I only had to take action to protect ourselves. Besides, it was obviously Jude who killed him."

"So where is this Jude now?" Earth Bear asked.

"He went to help me find the dragon, but he died in the swamp."

"So you recognize him as yours."

"He is a mercenary. I only hired him briefly... Strictly speaking, our employment relationship had not started when he killed someone."

"Then he helped you kill my nephew and several other mercenaries who came to find you. Do you believe this nonsense?" The Earth Bear let out a contemptuous sneer.

"Okay, okay," Edward II interrupted the quarrel between the two, "It's all in the past, why bring up these disappointing things.

"Qiboni, you want to challenge Sir Ilea to a duel to avenge your nephew. I can understand your mood, but it is impossible to agree.

"Because you are just a commoner now, and Sir Ilea is an imperial noble. According to the laws of the empire, civilians are not allowed to challenge nobles in a duel."

The female lord was slightly relieved after hearing this, but before she could be happy, she heard His Majesty the Emperor continue.

"But if you can keep winning, and Ser Ilea can keep winning, you will meet at the Tourney, and you may be able to settle your scores there."

Miss Rabbit was stunned again when she heard this, and then a huge feeling of fear hit her.

But there was a hint of joy in the eyes of the Earth Bear under the stands.

Because Edward II agreed that both of them could kill each other in the competition.

Although it has always been common for people to lose their lives in martial arts tournaments, even without the emperor's words, no one would hold the Earth Bear responsible for killing Ilea.

But no matter what, the female lord is now considered a popular person in front of Edward II. If she dies, she might make His Majesty the Emperor unhappy.

The Earth Bear especially did not want this incident to affect the relationship between the Cornelia priests and Edward II.

Therefore, he took advantage of today's rare opportunity to clarify this grudge in advance.

The Earth Bear could also completely let go of his hands and feet, and a ferocious smile appeared on his face again.

In contrast, the female lord's face instantly turned pale, without a trace of blood.

Edward II was very happy, because in his opinion, the Dragon Slayer Knight and the Earth Bear were both top-notch masters, and the showdown between them would definitely be exciting and exciting.

As for Queen Heloise, she continued to taste the wine in her hand, her eyes wandering, as if she had no interest in what was happening at the moment.

Ilea only felt that she was being separated from the world at this moment, and both the pictures in front of her and the sounds in her ears became very distant.

She vaguely felt someone approaching her and saying something, but she couldn't hear a word. (End of chapter)
