Chapter 217 - Chapter 217: Light Sword? How Can There Be Such a Young Sword Saint!?

Shirou, as Eris's sword teacher, naturally agreed with Eris's idea.

Of course, in reality, Shirou almost doesn't call himself Eris's sword teacher anymore.

After all, Shirou only taught Eris basic swordsmanship. After she reached the upper level of Sword God Style, her foundation could be said to have become quite solid.

At the same time, her talent in swordsmanship was even more obvious than Shirou's.

Unlike Shirou, who was a fake sword genius, Eris was undoubtedly the real genius.

As long as she continues on the right path and doesn't get lost, she will definitely become stronger and stronger.

Shirou no longer has the ability to teach her.

So the next day, Eris went out alone to accept a request from the adventurer's guild.

At the same time, Ruijerd also had something to do and went out alone.

It is said that he was going to visit an old friend in the Holy Country of Milis.

Shirou naturally didn't pay too much attention to Ruijerd visiting friends and family. After nodding silently, they separated.

Shirou himself also had things to do.

After some simple thought, Shirou decided to go to the church in the Holy Country of Milis first to seek the help of a priest to remove the toxins from his body.

Although he had almost adapted to this body being poisoned for so long, and could even fight for a short time while slightly poisoned, which shows that his poison resistance has increased significantly, and maybe he can completely neutralize the toxicity himself in the future, but if he could, Shirou naturally still hoped to get rid of the poisoned state as soon as possible.

After all, no one can guarantee that there won't be a sudden battle, and Shirou must ensure that he is always in a state where he can fight.

He walked all the way towards the seemingly magnificent Milis Church.

But on the way to the church, Shirou suddenly noticed movement in a narrow side alley.

Although Miriishion, the capital of the Holy Country of Milis, is a city that looks incredibly sacred and solemn, no matter how sacred a city is, it is bound to lack evil.

Just like light and shadow, they always exist together.

And in most cases, the brighter the light, the darker the shadows become.

The moment Shirou sensed the strange movement, his intuition as an ally of justice instinctively became alert and drove Shirou to take action immediately.

Although his body hasn't recovered yet, Shirou already has the ability to fight easily, but he didn't act recklessly, but tried to check the situation first.

With his cautious attitude, Shirou found a group of men walking hurriedly from the other end of the narrow alley towards him.

These men looked very flustered, even cautious, their eyes were watching the surroundings from time to time, and also instinctively looking at the sacks in their hands.

Although they were careful enough, Shirou could still see at a glance that the sack contained a person.

A kidnapping?

Shirou hesitated slightly, but didn't strike immediately, but quietly followed.

With his Clairvoyance ability, he can now even track from a very far distance, and he can even wait until they arrive at their hideout before following them in one go.

But because Shirou was worried that these kidnappers would strike directly, he remained in a state of following them.

Soon, the men arrived at a warehouse.

The warehouse doesn't face the main street and can only be entered from a narrow alley.

After the men brought the person in the sack into the warehouse, they breathed a sigh of relief and began to discuss things in the tavern next to the warehouse.

Shirou realized that this might be the kidnappers' hideout and began to think about whether to rescue the person directly or simply go to the guards of the Holy Country of Milis for help.

His thinking didn't last long, then he came to a decision—

Just do it directly.

Shirou is a Sword Saint, after all. He used Clairvoyance to observe the situation in the tavern, and found that most of these people were just ordinary soldiers and adventurers, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

So he strode forward directly and walked into the warehouse.

"Who is it!"

Shirou's appearance caused a reaction from many soldiers.

They either stood up in a panic, or hurriedly picked up their weapons, while some people hurriedly left, wanting to find someone to notify.

Shirou didn't care about all of this, he just silently drew the magic sword Wind Break from his waist and said: "Hand over the child you kidnapped."

"Tsk, is that the bodyguard or soldier of a rich family?"

The other side seemed to misunderstand Shirou's identity, thinking that someone hired Shirou to come over.

Shirou was too lazy to explain, he just came to stop the evil from happening.

These criminals have only one end, and that is to be handed over by him to the place of law enforcement.

"Boy, don't go looking for trouble. It's still too late to leave now, otherwise we won't show mercy."

The one who spoke was a female knight wearing sexy, exposed armor. She didn't seem to have any plans to kill, and advised Shirou to leave quickly.

Shirou was a little surprised by the female knight's relatively gentle attitude, but he wouldn't just run away like this.

He showed Wind Break with the back of the sword facing the enemy and said silently: "Don't think you will be forgiven for committing a crime."

"Hey! Kid! If you want to play the hero, go somewhere else to perform! We didn't commit any crimes!"

"Can you say that your actions aren't kidnapping?"

"This…"

Faced with Shirou's question, the female knight couldn't explain herself.

And the soldiers around her had already lost their patience, and all picked up their weapons and said arrogantly: "Don't care so much, just take this guy down quickly, don't bother the leader to deal with it."

"This... okay."

The female knight gritted her teeth and finally agreed to the fight.

Several soldiers holding weapons rushed over.

They surrounded Shirou from all directions.

But this undoubtedly couldn't pose a threat to Shirou.

Even if the poison hasn't been removed, Shirou can easily get rid of these guys.

"Pa!"

The Light Sword was suddenly waved.

The silver-white blade turned into a moon-shaped blade of light, and in the blink of an eye, it tore through the space.

"Ooh!"

"Eh!"

Shirou only used one sword, and all the soldiers in front of him lost consciousness.

Seeing this scene, the female knight was undoubtedly shocked. She had seen a lot, so she exclaimed on the spot: "Light Sword? You're a Sword Saint!? How can you be so young!!"

While the female knight was shocked, Shirou had Wind Break in his hand and approached further.

Even if he doesn't turn on Clairvoyance, he can still clearly see the movements of all the soldiers.

Not only how many enemies are on the scene, including possible reinforcements.

For Shirou, these opponents are nothing. Opponents who can't stop the Light Sword are like weeds by the roadside to him, and can only face the fate of being harvested.

"Whoa! Everyone has been defeated!"

"How can there be such a young Sword Saint? It's as exaggerated as the leader's son!"

"There's no way, go call the leader over!"

"But the leader drank a lot today!"

"That person is still very strong even when drunk!"

The soldiers spoke noisily.

Although Shirou was curious about the so-called leader, he couldn't waste time at the moment. The toxins in his body prevent him from maintaining a high-intensity battle for a long time, so he must fight quickly.

"Swish!"

Another silver-white slash.

Shirou only swung the sword with the back of the blade, but the speed was still so fast that all the soldiers present couldn't keep up.

Those who rushed over without thinking had no time to react and were easily defeated by Shirou.

And until this moment, Shirou finally noticed the strangeness of the situation.

Most of these so-called soldiers are ordinary people without weapons, and even magicians are rare. It's really hard to imagine that this is the configuration that a kidnapping group should have.

Instead, it was a group of people who were temporarily put together.

While Shirou was suspicious of the situation, the soldiers had completely fallen into panic and had no courage to fight Shirou at all.

"There's no way, we can only hold him back, we must wait for the leader to arrive!"

The female knight wearing exposed clothing drew her sword from her waist and had to take the initiative to attack.

A magician lady next to her was acting as a partner to cooperate with her.

"The cool shallow stream appears here—Water Bullet!"

Faced with this kind of magic that can only be activated with slow chanting, Shirou really didn't even have the idea of caring.

He continued to move forward without changing his pace, and just as the water bullet was about to hit him, he tore it apart with one sword.

"Pa!"

Compared to Shirou's fighting spirit, this level of magic was as fragile as a thin piece of paper, and directly turned into a tide of elements and dissipated.

"So, so strong!"

The magician showed a shocked expression. She showed a moment of surprise. She didn't expect that the magic she had carefully prepared would be solved so easily.

This is because Shirou has fought against too many powerful magicians so far.

The magic used by the army under the Undead Demon King Atofe can be said to be a thousand times stronger than this.

However, the current problem is not just magic.

The female knight's sword had already been swung towards him.

Judging from the action, it should be North God Style.

Her strength seems to be lower level.

She can be considered excellent among ordinary people, but she is really too far from Shirou.

"Pa!"

Shirou only used one sword to knock the female knight's weapon flying, and by the way, kicked the other party, causing her to lose her ability to move.

Too weak.

Shirou felt this way more and more.

The quality of this group of soldiers is much worse than the group of Giles.

It doesn't seem like a kidnapping group should be this bad.

Confused, Shirou came to the sack in the distance. After untying the sack, he found that it was indeed a boy lying inside.

He originally didn't pay too much attention, but he inexplicably felt that the boy was very familiar.

After hesitating for a long time, he suddenly exclaimed: "Somar? Hey, are you Somar?"

"Who…"

Somar woke up in a daze. He instinctively responded to Shirou's words, and after opening his eyes, he saw Shirou's appearance and showed a scared expression, "Devil, devil! No, Lord Shirou, you, why are you here!"

Somar first used Shirou's childhood nickname instinctively.

But time has made him a little more worldly and slick, and the address was quickly corrected.

Shirou completely realized that something was wrong.

This matter revealed weirdness everywhere.

The target kidnapped by the soldiers turned out to be Somar, whom he knew in Buena Village when he was a child, and the quality of this group of soldiers was not as strong as that of a real kidnapping group at all, and this was the Holy Country of Milis.

A possibility emerged in Shirou's mind.

And it was quickly verified.

A blond man suddenly broke in from outside the door, drunkenly shouting: "Okay! Let everyone wait! No matter what evildoer comes, I alone will be enough!"

The man swaggered in from outside, and his words were full of confusion and nonsense.

He seemed very confident in his strength, but he looked very drunk.

From a distance, you could see that he was staggering and his face was flushed.

"Tsk, he's actually messing around so arrogantly. Hic... don't you guys need to do anything. Why do so many people need to deal with a kid? I'm enough by myself."

As the man's words fell, the soldiers looked like they had seen a savior.

But the blond man was suddenly stunned after walking into the warehouse and seeing the situation inside. Then, when he saw Shirou, the man's movements suddenly stopped, turning into stiffness and unease.

But in the end, he didn't avoid it. In great shock and suspicion, he muttered to himself: "Shirou... you, are you Shirou?"

"Paul…"

Too sudden a reunion.

This was too unexpected an event for the father and son.

The two were stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.
