Philosopher's Stone.

Demonic symbol.

No wonder the man in front of him has such great power.

Kelehe looked solemn and his face was pale.

If this man is a demon, then the Kingdom of Gioral will be in trouble.

An empire's princess and an empire's sword master were all involved in some unclear way with this man... If word got out, what a scandal it would be!

Kelehe subconsciously grasped the sword in his hand, and his body became a little stiff due to excessive tension.

The huge ups and downs even revealed Kelehe's innermost feelings.

If someone with intentions knew about it at this time, I am afraid it would bring huge trouble to the empire. It would also bring shame to my family and the name of the Sword Master...

unless……

Unless he's lying to me?

Kelech only felt that his mind was in chaos.

…

Chen Wei shook his head and looked "somewhat disappointed" after seeing Krech's little action.

"Kerich, relax, you should know that you can't defeat me..."

Chen Wei saw Kraihe slowly loosening his hands, with a tangled expression on his face, and continued,

"Klech, you don't have to be afraid. You should know better than anyone else that I am a human, a real human... I believe that as long as the problem of the Philosopher's Stone is solved, I will not become a demon..."

Krech's eyes remained suspicious,

"So, what is your solution?"

"like!"

Chen Wei nodded solemnly,

"Love is the most powerful magic in the world. As long as you use love to influence me, I believe that even the Philosopher's Stone can be broken and leave my body!"

"..."

Klech was stunned on the spot. As a sword master who had been practicing hard for eighteen years, Klech could find ten thousand ways to defeat the opponent with sword moves...but in her training, there was nothing but love.

As he said that, Chen Wei slowly approached Kelehe,

"Now, we should compete with each other...Kleihe...fighting can help us find [love]..."

…

Kraihe looked like I knew it,

"Sure enough, what you just said was all lies to me..."

Kelehe took a cautious look at the cave. Kai Lulu did not eavesdrop on the conversation between the two, but she was still a little worried.

"But Kai Lulu is still in the cave, we..."

Chen Wei smiled evilly,

"What's so hard about this?"

Chen Wei picked up a stone on the ground.

"Refining!"

A bronze door appeared at the entrance of the originally empty cave, sealing the entire cave.

"This way, no one will disturb our competition."

…

Kelehe's straight legs were tightly clamped. It had been a long time since he had tried swordsmanship with Chen Wei.

But Krech knew that his mood was not strong enough. Outside the tent in Ice Wolf Village, Krech could only block his ears with cotton to keep his mood from falling.

Now, facing Chen Wei's invitation to compete directly...Kleihe had long ago forgotten Chen Wei's nonsense, and instead faced the competition that was destined to fail with a fearless attitude!

"Since you want to compete, hurry up!"

Chen Wei likes the way that Sword Master Cleher grits his teeth but is powerless. As for why Chen Wei said that about the Philosopher's Stone...

In fact, it is to plant a seed in Kelehe's heart. As long as the seed is irrigated, it will take root and sprout.

After all, Kraihe has the potential to be promoted from a sword master to a brave man.

…

As Chen Wei's sword was unsheathed, Kraihe, who was at a disadvantage in terms of strength, once again abandoned his armor... In fact, Kraihe never thought that he would defeat Chen Wei, a hateful man.

Chen Wei saw that Kraihe's face was red due to excessive exercise, but his mouth was still tightly closed.

You will be reminded the next time you make a move.

"Klech, didn't you inherit the name of Swift Wind Swordsman? Why don't you dare to say a word now?"

…

Krech knows that for a true swordsman, "death is like the wind, always with me"!

You should not be afraid, you should face it bravely!

Kelehe gritted his silver teeth, not caring about his long white hair that had become messy due to the fight, and began to take the initiative...

"I, the Gale Swordsman, don't dare to speak?!"

…

"That's right, Kelehe... How can a swordsman dare not face the enemy's weapons?"

…

"nonsense!"

Kelehe's starry eyes widened and he tried to put on a fierce look, trying to intimidate Chen Wei. Although, this kind of behavior would only make the enemy's sword moves more powerful...

Krech used her sparse moves to counter Chen Wei's powerful attacks. Although occasionally Krech could gain the upper hand, it was all because of Chen Wei.

After a competition, Kelehe sadly realized that he was at a disadvantage again, and the winner was about to be decided.

As a prominent member of the Kingdom of Gioral, he inherited the strongest bloodline in the kingdom, possessing perfect skills that were almost born for the sword... but he still could not defeat the opponent...

This can only be said that the other party is not human at all!

At this moment, she suddenly realized.

Maybe the other party is really stronger than you because of the bonus of [Philosopher's Stone]!

Maybe Chen Wei didn't lie to himself?

Kelehe finally began to let go...

…

But suddenly I heard it!

"Klech, it's time to use love to influence it!"

"Ah, this..."

Kleihe clearly knew that Chen Wei's words were problematic...but now he couldn't care less...if he continued to fight according to the previous fighting method, I'm afraid Kreihe would completely lose to him...

So, before a new round of competition, Krech tried to grasp the meaning of "love".

Suddenly, she thought of the day when they parted,

At the entrance of the town,

The stubborn look of love in the eyes of that Ice Wolf Tribe girl...

As the sun sets, the lonely girl is obviously just one person, but she seems to own the whole world, as if she is emitting golden light.

Kelehe's eyes were blurry,

"Is that love..."

Kelehe suddenly realized something, and her body moved involuntarily with the sword in her hand... This time, Chen Wei was no longer an opponent in her eyes, but... her lover who had reunited after a long separation...

…

There is no winner in the final competition, but they are all winners. Sometimes, a small step forward is a big step towards victory.

[Ding, congratulations on getting the favorability of Sword Master Cleher +1]

…

The wind in the wilderness is very gentle, and the forest not far away is green and full of vitality. There are many demihuman races hidden in the endless forest, but now.

Outside the cave, Chen Wei used stones to refine a large bed, and the clouds in the sky and the passing breeze served as a soft quilt.

Chen Wei looked at Kelehe who collapsed in his arms from exhaustion after the competition.

"The strategy... officially begins..."
Chapter completed!
