I Regressed to My Ruined Family Chapter 194

#When I returned, my family was ruined (195)

Ethan looked at the host. I was so shocked that I couldn’t even think of closing my mouth.

but.

It was not an incomprehensible sight. Because he was still known to the outside world as a knight who had reached the level of superhumanity. I guess they both thought they were similarly talented.

“Is it over?”

“Uh, can you wait a moment?”

The embarrassed host called the security guards. If William, the opponent, had fainted due to the clash just now, the match was virtually over.

That could be said to be not very good news for the organizers.

The opening match of the round of 16.

In fact, it was a section that could be called a real ‘final round’. Therefore, it is normal for the first game to be much more spectacular than other games.

‘No way… in just one shot…’

Desert Kingdom Deacon.

The warriors there, who grew up in harsh environments, including sweltering heat, were all famous for their fierce tenacity. I wouldn’t have collapsed like this. Several guards were sent into the gaping hole in the wall.

After a while.

“Not even a movement!”

“It looks like you fainted…”

Boom!

The audience immediately became engulfed in commotion after hearing the security guard’s words.

As much as the host was surprised, the audience also widened their eyes. Even though I didn’t know the details of the game, I knew through numerous previous games how knights clash.

At least one thing was certain.

Assuming that the two knights’ realms span the same section.

At least I didn’t fall down helplessly from a single hit like before. You have to compete for at least a few dozen sums to get a result.

“…oh my god. “He was knocked out in one hit?”

“I heard you’re both superhuman? “Does this make sense?”

“…my dividend!”

“Holy shit!”

The host closed his eyes tightly.

If the opponent fainted, there was no need to look any further.

“The winner of Group 1 of the round of 16 is… His Excellency the Duke of Ethan!”

Amidst the embarrassment, shouts erupted belatedly. The Duke was seen walking towards the interior of the Colosseum.

“…Ardan was like that?”

“Isn’t that enough to knock Prince Damian out in one hit?”

“Watch your mouth there! “Where are you saying such nonsense?”

“No, isn’t Prince Damian also a superhuman? “I heard that the knight who just fell out was a superhuman?”

“Have you ever seen such an ignorant person! You may think that all superhumans are at the same level, but even among the same superhumans, their levels are different! “That knight from earlier must have been a very weak superhuman!”

“Hmm. Are you saying that the young chick was a superhuman?”

“Oh, of course! Perhaps he was a lucky knight who reached superhuman status! Otherwise, at most I would have been knocked out in one hit?”

“After hearing it, it seems to be true…”

More than 80% of the audience gathered here were citizens belonging to the Kingdom of Limedel. As such, Damian, who could be called the hero of the kingdom, had a very large protective force. In the end, public opinion headed in one direction.

The opponent must have been a very weak superhuman. This also happened because no one saw the blow just before. Whether you are a weak superhuman or a strong superhuman, you had to have a level of at least 8 stars in order to properly witness their movements.

However, the judgment of those on the upper floors of the Colosseum was completely different. The nobles located here were accompanied by knights who were said to be quite powerful. At least this means that the possibility of making a misjudgment is much lower.

“…Lord Laxion, how did the match just go by?”

“I didn’t check it exactly either…”

The distance narrowed rapidly.

This happened because Duke Ethan’s speed was twice as fast as William’s. After that, William didn’t even have time to strike with his sword.

‘The speed of the sword… was beyond imagination.’

It was to the point where I couldn’t even see it properly. William widened his eyes after seeing a very blurry black image. In the end, he was the one who created the gaping wall.

The nobles’ eyes lit up at the knight’s explanation. They were people who had their own sources of information. Unlike the public in the lower class who evaluated William as a ‘newbie superman’, they already knew that William was a superman with considerable strength. If we had to divide it into high, middle, and low, it means that it is an article that can at least occupy a middle level.

By no means was he a rookie superhuman. They dealt with such a talented person so quickly that he couldn’t even respond?

That meant that Duke Ethan’s skills far exceeded their expectations.

“Hehe… Does this make sense?”

It was a common thought among nobles. Even if it were the famous Sir Damian, it would be extremely difficult to neutralize William with a single blow.

“…It seems that Duke Ethan’s skills have reached their peak. Perhaps we have reached the Wall of Transcendence…”

The nobles swallowed their saliva at the guard knight’s words.

A wall of transcendence!

That was a critical turning point that divided the superhuman and the transcendent. If I couldn’t overcome this wall, I had no choice but to live in the confines of being a ‘superman’ for the rest of my life.

Even facing that wall is extremely difficult. If there were ten superhumans, at most one or two would be able to face the wall, and only one out of a hundred would be able to completely jump over the wall.

That is why the Transcendent was treated like a strategic weapon for each kingdom.

Because it was such a valuable and powerful being.

“…Amazing.”

surprising.

This was all I could say.

This was especially true when thinking about Duke Ethan’s past.

What knight from the Western Continent could face the Wall of Transcendence in just one year?

All of the superhumans who are said to be nanda are likely to have reached this level through decades of training, elixirs poured like water, and new training methods.

‘The rumor was not exaggerated… but rather downsized.’

Rumor has it that he has reached the level of superhumanity.

However, that was no different from minimizing his level. Even if they were the same superhuman, their skills were clearly differentiated depending on whether they faced a wall or not.

Some nobles gritted their teeth as they remembered their children. The Duke of Ethan faced the wall of transcendence in at most one year, but his sons…

That’s right.

It’s just that the seed is different.

Wasn’t he a descendant of the famous Ardan? The nobles talked to relieve their sore stomachs. The conversation was filled with a lot of rhetoric, but the gist was the same. It was true that a strong candidate for the championship had appeared in this continental swordsmanship competition.

* * *

It was Damien who took part in the second game. A knight from Limedell who received a golden invitation.

He looked at the other person.

‘At best, he’s a superhuman.’

Even though the match was just around the corner, the only thing that came to his mind was Duke Ethan’s blow, not analysis of his opponent.

An overly clean and neat blow.

It was an unbelievable feat to have wielded a great sword. The blow, which was full of enlightenment, was that clean.

It was truly strange.

It’s just a neat, quick strike.

‘…If you block it, the picture cannot be drawn.’

In a split second, I imagined it dozens of times. What would the outcome be if you were to receive Duke Ethan’s sword?

It was the same every time.

No matter how he defended himself, the great sword hit his body like it hit William.

That indicated one thing.

Ethan Ardan’s level is at least one step ahead of his own.

‘…Are we really facing a wall?’

Naturally, my grip on the sword gained strength. What would it have been like if he and William had faced each other in the previous game?

The result would have been the same.

William must have tasted bitter defeat in the end.

However, the process will not be the same. Duke Ethan completely neutralized him with a single blow.

Damian also knew very well how difficult it was to see such a scene in the same situation.

Although he was a highly skilled person among superhumans…

‘It would have been impossible to finish him off in one blow.’

Even if they had decided to end the game quickly, they would have had to compete for at least ten matches.

Taking that into account, it was not strange for some nobles to predict the duke’s strength, saying he had encountered a wall of transcendence.

Because there was no one who accurately understood the state of dukedom.

At least that was the case for the knights who participated in this competition. Ethan was truly a strange man. The force felt from him gave only a very vague feeling, as if a shadow had been cast over his body.

However, there was one thing that everyone had in common.

‘…probably not a transcendental person.’

Is it possible that he could have overcome the wall of transcendence at the age of twenty?

Even if you look at literature recording hundreds of years of history, there has never been a monster who surpassed the wall of transcendence at the age of 20.

That’s why everyone thought that way. That he would never be a transcendental person.

But one thing was certain.

Contrary to people who thought he had simply stepped into the realm of superhumanity, Ethan was an incredibly talented person.

As such a person stood out in the previous match, Damian’s mental burden was bound to increase.

His opponent was a knight at a similar level to William.

What will happen if time goes on for a long time in this game? In all likelihood, that’s what you’d expect. Damian Ploten is just a knight who is no match for Ethan Ardan.

It is obvious that he will be reduced to a subject of ridicule by wealthy people.

Duke of Ethan.

The culprit who brought his father and himself to their knees. I couldn’t stand being compared to him.

That’s why Damian decided to give his all in this game.

“…The game begins!”

The moment the host finished speaking.

The new forms of the two superhumans disappeared.

bang!

One sum.

bang!

Two sums.

The other person shows a perplexed expression. It seemed like they didn’t expect that they would give their best from the first game. Normally, it was normal to hide one’s level as much as possible and prepare for when one rose to the top.

But now was not the time for Damian to risk his life. That decided the outcome.

“Wow!”

In just three moves, Damian’s sword pierced the opponent’s chest. Mana exploded from all directions and penetrated the knight’s body.

dump!

The knight who received the gold-level invitation fell down.

“…I’ll count to three! If this doesn’t happen, the game is decided! One, two, three!”

Even while the host was counting the numbers, the driver was unable to get up. It was a very vain defeat for a superman.

“The winner of Group 2 is… Sir Damien Plotten!”

“…Waaah!”

A shout rang out.

However, it was a much more enthusiastic shout than the first game.

Just one room.
