Chapter 228 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 228

Encrid engages in a duel with a rapier swordsman who utilizes 'Intimidation,' a technique based on willpower that manifests as intangible, slashing blades. Despite the psychological pressure, Encrid uses his Heart of Great Strength and Focus Point to deflect the blades, but he eventually misses one and faints from the mental strain. His allies—Rem, Ragna, Audin, and Jaxon—intervene to protect him. Upon waking, Encrid remains undeterred, expressing interest in the technique. Ragna explains that to overcome Intimidation, one must develop a strong enough 'Will' to deflect the intangible blades mentally. The dueling continues over several days, with the swordsman testing Encrid's limits until Encrid faints again. Later, a mysterious young man with dark skin and multiple weapons arrives at the castle gate at night. Bell, the gate guard, tests the stranger's strength in a brief skirmish. The stranger proves superior but remains non-hostile. Bell informs Encrid, who goes to meet the visitor alone. As they begin to duel, the stranger's blade grazes Encrid's forehead, causing Encrid to collapse and die. This triggers a time loop/curse, resetting the day. Bell loses his memory of the previous day's events, and the cycle repeats, with Encrid approaching the visitor with renewed excitement.
