Chapter 79 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 79

Encrid engages in a series of intense sparring matches with a highly skilled swordsman from Pollid. Despite the man's superior technique and speed, Encrid continues to challenge him, losing five times but gaining invaluable insights into quick sword techniques and countering. During the training, Encrid's squadmate Jaxon offers advice, while Pollid repeatedly attempts to provoke the swordsman, only to be ignored. Encrid provides Pollid with the blunt advice that he is ignored because he keeps talking. The next morning, Kreise Allman arrives at the inn with a badly beaten man, the leader of a spy unit, who has been captured. The man confesses to being blinded by Krona and causing the recent troubles. Leona requests to ask the prisoner questions before formal interrogation. During the questioning, the prisoner claims he was ordered to target the lady in the inn using available resources but does not recognize anyone in the room. Leona suggests that some fools were simply greedy for her purse, implying the motive was theft rather than a direct assassination order. Pollid's clumsy attempts to defend Leona lead to a confusing exchange, but Encrid begins to realize the true complexity of the situation involving the Rockfreed Trading Company, the succession issue, and the spies, realizing he had overlooked certain connections while focused on his training.
