Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 78: Whale Song (47)

Dragon Raja 5

“Aren’t you talking about Caesar?”

“When Caesar showed up, I actually didn’t need anyone anymore. I could handle my own affairs.” NuoNuo turned her head and glanced at Lu Mingfei behind her. “I’m not talking about myself, I’m talking about Lu Mingfei. I don’t want to see his sad face. I know he wants someone to help him, but he just won’t say it. He pretends to be indifferent to everything. But I just want to help him. I have to make him accept my favor. I will fight against anyone who bullies him.”

“Helping him is like helping your past self, isn’t it?” Susie sighed. “Girl, I told you that you’d misrepresent your feelings and misunderstand others. So he fell in love with you, and you became the person he cared about the most, and you were also the one who made him the saddest.”

“I know I did something wrong, but I can’t just run away after making a mistake, right? If I don’t care about him, who else will? You have to clean up the mess you made yourself, and you have to eat the bitter melon you planted yourself even if you cry.” NuoNuo’s tone was still relaxed.

“Are you really going to go down this path? If you do this, it won’t benefit either you or him.”

“Girl, this is really not something you would say. When did I, Chen Motong, tell you that I wanted to walk the honest path? I don’t care about the honest or the dishonest path, I just want to walk my own path.” Nuonuo smiled.

Susie was stunned for a moment, then smiled, but shook her head and sighed as she smiled, “Yes, I said the wrong thing, I’m sorry.”

“No need to apologize. It’s no big deal to say a few wrong words. We are best friends.” Nono said.

“Do you still think we are best friends?” Susie raised her long and beautiful French eyebrows.

Nuonuo nodded.

“Thanks.”

As soon as these two words came out, Susie and Nono took action at the same time.

They have lived together for three years, been partners in tactical training, and rivals in “Free Day”. They have come into close combat many times, but none of them was as extreme as today.

Nuonuo flashed before Susie, and the boy cut from bottom to top, emitting a mirror-like blade. The work of an ancient alchemist, a precious sword for exorcising demons and suppressing evil, its blade so sharp that it could cut even a horse in two.

Susie grabbed the flying scalpel in mid-air, and it seemed as if it was sucked back into her palm by a huge magnetic force. The scalpel cut through the knife light of Tongziqi and silently slashed towards Nuonuo’s wrist. The attack was like a spirit snake. Although it did not have the power of Tongziqi, it was faster and more accurate.

The two passed each other and returned to stillness again.

A piece of white fabric fluttered down lightly. It was the hem of Susie’s skirt. Her dodging speed was fast enough, but it did not mean that the summer skirt could keep the same speed as her. After all, it was just a beautiful skirt, not Doctor Strange’s cloak.

However, Nuonuo did not show any expression of pride or excitement, and still held the knife in a defensive posture. She did not spend much time on the Japanese sword, but this defensive knife stand was also watertight.

With just one strike, she went from attacker to defender, because she could clearly feel the chill at her wrist, left by the scalpel’s blade brushing against her wrist. Only a few centimeters away, the silver rattlesnake had bitten her vitals.

The Golden Iris Academy was such a damn waste of time. The reaction speed of her nerves and muscles had obviously slowed down. In the past year, she had been arranging flowers and learning to make pastries. But Susie was different. She traveled through the nights of Paris or London, and every action made her sharper like a whetstone.

She is worthy of being the best among the new generation of beheaders in the academy.

However, Nuonuo was not the type to panic when encountering a strong enemy. She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, recalled her previous training, and made adjustments quickly.

Susie’s advantage is obvious: rigorous training, extensive experience in combat, and the unused “Sword Control” Word Spirit. But Nono also has an advantage: the Dojikiri in her hand.

This ancient sword can be called a masterpiece of alchemy. It is sharp and sturdy, and it has special lethality against dragons and hybrids. The scalpel in Susie’s hand is just made of ordinary fine steel. If the two weapons are facing each other, Tongziqie will definitely cut off the scalpel, which is no different from cutting a piece of wire.

In other words, her primary target was not Susie, but the scalpel. If she attacked first, there would be a flaw, and Susie’s scalpel would be lurking nearby like a bloodthirsty silver snake. But if Susie attacked first, she could cut off the silver snake and then suppress Susie.

She slowly turned the Tongziqie, held it diagonally, slid her left hand along the back of the knife, gently placed it on the tip, and leaned her body backward.

The “Head-Concentrated Sword Stance” in “Selection of Single-Sword Techniques” written by Cheng Zongyou in the Ming Dynasty is a sword stance that requires eyesight, speed and precision. One must first see through the opponent’s attack, and then strike first.

Seeing through things is precisely Nono’s specialty. Susie’s strength was far inferior to Isabel’s, but for Nono, analyzing Susie is much easier than analyzing Isabel because they were too familiar with each other.
