Chapter 78 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 78

Encrid engages in an intense series of sparring matches against the Border Guards in a vacant lot behind the inn. He begins by sparring with Torres, then moves on to a guard who uses twig daggers and specialized techniques reminiscent of a sword breaker. Jaxon provides meticulous tactical guidance, advising Encrid to consider unconventional responses like kicking and to focus on countering specific weapon techniques. As the day progresses, Encrid spars with all six Border Guards, absorbing their unique styles and receiving various critiques regarding his balance, center of gravity, and tactical deception. During a break, Leona engages in playful banter with Encrid, teasing him about his indifference to her beauty and mentioning rumors that they have a child together. The Company Commander also offers advice, including wrestling techniques. Despite the physical toll and bruises, Encrid remains exhilarated and focused, driven by a desire to improve through constant repetition and contemplation. The session concludes when a fencer from Pollid, intrigued by Encrid's intense passion and ability to inspire others, challenges him to a match. Despite the potential tension of their status as enemies, Encrid accepts. As the duel begins, Encrid enters a state of intense concentration, visualizing the combat as a life-or-death battlefield, prepared to dive into the moment.
