Chapter VII Extortion and Extortion

"Actually, we are looking for a knight's sword."

Hearing what Lenharut said, Du En raised his eyebrows and thought of something.

"You are talking about a long sword forged from fine steel."

Du En asked why a knight's long sword appeared in a junkyard that was selling junk. It turned out to be stolen from the two teenagers in front of him.

The sword in the red-haired boy's hand looked like it was of no ordinary quality. Most thieves probably wouldn't dare touch it, so it was another purple-haired boy who lost the sword.

"Have you seen my sword?"

Realizing that Duen might have the whereabouts of his own sword, Julius couldn't help but ask, now he is not as calm as he will be in the future, and he is far from worthy of the title of "The Best Knight".

Facing Julius's question, Duen pointed to the sales warehouse behind him.

"I've seen it before, it's right here."

Hearing what Dun said, Julius's face lit up with joy and he was about to step forward, but was stopped by Reinhardt.

"Astraea?"

When he heard Julius calling his last name, Reinhardt did not step aside, but said in a solemn tone.

"The other side has no intention of letting us go."

Julius was stunned by Reinhardt's words, and a smile appeared on Doon's face.

"That's right. Although there is a similar sword inside, I can't be sure it's your side sword. A knight can't even keep his own side sword well. This is too derelict in his duty."

Du En's words made Julius's face turn red. Du En was right. Losing the sword was originally his negligence as a trainee knight. Even though this accident was actually an accident, it cannot be denied that it was an accident.

This is the result because he is not good enough.

"Even if the sword inside is really yours, I can't let you take it back easily, otherwise the old man's reputation will be damaged. Moreover, you are knights, if you just take away the sword

, I won’t say anything, but will you just watch this kind of place that handles stolen goods continue to exist?”

Hearing what Du En said, Julius shook his head. He really had never thought of letting go of the thief who stole his sword and restoring order in the capital. This was also his duty as a knight.

"How about you listen to my advice? I stayed in this warehouse for a night and had breakfast. As the saying goes, a favor should be repaid by a spring, not to mention the owner of the warehouse.

Allow me to stay here for one night, I can't just watch you arrest him."

Saying this, Du En pulled out the sword from his waist and pointed it at the two of them, the heroic spirit between his brows clearly visible.

"I can help you convince the old man to return the sword to you. On the contrary, you turn a blind eye to this incident and let the old man behind it go."

"I'm not discussing this with you, I'm just giving you a choice. Either take the sword you accidentally lost and get out of here."

"Or, be prepared to fight me here."

A fierce momentum rose from Du En's body, and the swordsman's soul belonging to Miyamoto Musashi was burning brightly. His intuition told him that the red-haired kid was qualified to let him fight with all his strength.

Shocked by Dun's aura, both Reinhardt and Julius' expressions became solemn for a moment.

While suppressing the dragon sword "Red" in his hand, Reinhardt said to Julius beside him: "Julius, what are you going to do? I don't suggest that we fight her here.

There are too many civilians here, and if a fight breaks out, ordinary people are likely to be harmed."

"Moreover, even if I go all out, I am not sure that I will win against the opponent."

This was the first time Reinhardt saw Dragon Sword so excited. He kept urging him and encouraging him to fight with the opponent.

"Even you are not sure of victory?"

His eyes widened slightly, and a look of struggle flashed across Julius's face. Although he felt that Reinhardt was speaking modestly, and he didn't think that Reinhardt could not defeat the opponent, but since he said so

, this means that even he cannot win the opponent at once.

No matter how unwilling he was, Julius could only agree to Dun's conditions, even if it went against his beliefs as a knight.

Sighing, Julius nodded and said: "I understand, as long as you are willing to return my sword, then I will not hold the person who stole my sword accountable."

"Okay, then it's decided."

Du En put the fierce sword back into its scabbard, put his hands on his hips, and said loudly.

"Then next, it's time to talk about compensation."

"compensation?"

"That's right, as for your compensation for attacking me early in the morning and hurting my fragile soul."

Although he himself was not harmed in any way, Reinhardt and Julius were well intimidated by him, but Duen shamelessly demanded compensation from them.

In response to Dun's shameless behavior, Reinhardt showed a rare wry smile on his young and promising face.

"I wonder what compensation you want from this young lady?"

Miss!?

Hearing Reinhardt's words, Du En's eyes suddenly became a little dangerous.

"What compensation? Of course it's compensation for mental damages!"

"With that kind of incredible weapon, you kid, your family background must not be ordinary. Feel free to compensate me with one or two hundred gold coins. As for your attack on me, I will let you go."

"Just compensate one or two hundred gold coins..."

As a trainee knight, his monthly subsidy is only 10 silver coins. If he becomes a formal knight, he will only get one gold coin, which is not even the slightest difference from the one or two hundred gold coins Duen requires.

She and Julius looked at each other, and both saw the helplessness in the other's eyes. She was obviously a powerful female swordsman, but she was blackmailing an ordinary trainee knight like them.

Although both of them came from unusual family backgrounds, it was impossible for them to just hand over one or two hundred gold coins.

Seeing the embarrassment of the two people, Du En snorted twice and said with some dissatisfaction.

"You two shouldn't have any money, right? In that case, just sign the contract first."

After forcing the two of them to write down IOUs and even plundering all their money, Du En nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, just wait a moment, I will take out the sword, and then you can leave."

I originally thought that Du En would be a little more restrained when he wrote his family's surname, but the other party had no scruples at all.

If it was a rough plot, Du En would still have an impression of it, but how could he remember the last names of the characters in it one by one?

However, for Du En, he wouldn't care about his last name.
