Chapter 332 Butterfly Wind Istelle
As if she could sense the impure thoughts of Artoria.
Little Jin also hurriedly began to divert Artoria's attention.
She waved her hand.
In front of Artoria, a large illusory mirror appeared, and the scene of the port began to appear on it.
At this time, two groups of people can be seen confronting each other on the screen.
One group is the marine, led by the marine monster Vice Admiral Issho.
The other group was the soldiers stationed at the port of the Kingdom of Corti. They were now surrounding a woman who looked gentle.
He had slightly tied up black hair, with a purple butterfly hairpin on her head.
She wore dark purple clothes inside and a loose white feather woven on the outside.
This gentle-looking woman was the first holy knight that Artoria had met, and she was also the legendary great swordsman.
"Hehe, Artoria, look, Istelle and the guy from the marine are facing each other. I wonder if they will fight. Is it going to be a good show?"
Looking at the fairy on her shoulder who looked like she was afraid of chaos in the world, Artoria shook her head and then watched carefully.
If necessary, she could let Little Jin take her to the port instantly.
Now, it was just a matter of waiting and watching.
Seeing that Artoria was indeed attracted by the picture, Little Jin playfully stuck out her tongue, and then began to watch the picture in the mirror above like watching a show.
••••••••••
At the port.
When Issho was about to go to the palace, a person suddenly appeared in front of them.
With the arrival of this person, countless kingdom soldiers who were originally watching vigilantly around also came over.
At this time, Issho faced the crowd in front of him.
He could feel the strong presence in front of him, and this presence was somewhat familiar.
So he kept searching in his mind, and soon locked the target, and he asked in a deep voice.
"Excuse me, is it Istelle?"
Standing a few meters in front of Issho, Istelle looked at the blind man in front of him with some surprise.
'Can he recognize me just by seeing me? What an amazing observation Haki.'
Istelle made a judgment quickly.
You know, it is not so easy to identify different people with the Observation Haki without using your eyes, especially when she was not noticeable when she met the swordsman in front of her.
It was really unexpected that he recognized her so quickly after only meeting her once.
"What a surprise, you can recognize me so quickly, Vice Admiral Issho."
Istelle put the flying hair behind her ear with one hand, and then a gentle voice sounded.
Issho's face was a little solemn when he heard the person in front of him admit it.
"I didn't expect to meet Lady Istelle here after the Kendo Tournament. It's a blessing, but..."
Issho's tone was a little heavy.
"Why are you here in this country? and why are you blocking my way?"
As Issho spoke again.
The marine behind him couldn't help but take a breath.
The gentle and beautiful woman in front of them turned out to be a great swordsman. Soon, the marine recalled the woman in front of them through the key word of the Kendo Tournament.
In the second round of the Kendo Tournament, one of the ten contestants was her.
Butterfly Wind Istelle.
In the newspaper about the big news of the Kendo Tournament, there was a very small space describing her, a woman suspected to be a great swordsman.
But the space was too small.
In the big news of the Kendo Tournament, the world's number one swordsman, the Sword Saint Yachiru, has occupied more than half of the space, followed by the very dazzling Ice Queen Esdeath.
As for the others at that time, they were eclipsed by them.
Even Hawkeye Mihawk and Muan the Rock, who were confirmed to be great swordsmen at that time, did not attract too much attention.
Not to mention Istelle, who was suspected to be a great swordsman.
Moreover, her fighting at that time was also very simple. If it weren't for her beautiful appearance, people might not even remember her.
After all, apart from the unexpected entry into the battle match at the Kendo Conference, there are few other rumors about her.
Even if there are rumors, they are that she helped some towns drive away some pirates, and it was still a very simple battle.
Unlike Artoria, who will use cannons to wash the ground when she disagrees with something, making people feel very strong at first glance.
"Istelle..., I remember, is she really a great swordsman? The legendary great swordsman!"
"It can't be wrong, even Vice Admiral Issho said so, it must be right."
"Why is she here! Is she just passing by?"
"The soldiers of those kingdoms are all led by her, it can't be that simple."
The marine behind Issho began to whisper.
While they were whispering.
The soldiers behind Istelle also discussed in a low voice.
They were also very surprised when they learned that Istelle was the legendary great swordsman.
Before, many people in this country did not read newspapers at all.
Life was already tight, how could they pay for newspapers?
Therefore, unless they were very famous, they would not take it to heart.
They were not able to eat enough, so how could they think so much?
Even so, they still knew about the great swordsmen. They were legendary figures, powerful swordsmen who were extremely rare in the whole world.
They did not expect that the holy knight Istelle was so powerful.
Now they spontaneously gathered behind Istelle because of her identity.
Holy Knight, a special position established by the king, has a special status and power.
At present, there are only two holy knights in their country. The holy knight Istelle in front of them has the duty of guarding, and her power is greater than that of the captain of the Kingdom Guard.
The soldiers had no objection to Lady Istelle's position.
After all, she was appointed by the king, so the king would not be wrong, and Lady Istelle also showed some strength, cutting off a rock as high as a person in an instant.
With this kind of strength, there is really no master who can do it among the thousands of soldiers in their country.
Now it seems that if she is the legendary great swordsman, it should be a piece of cake and a trivial display!
While Istelle and Issho's subordinates were discussing and shocked in a low voice, their conversation was still going on.
"Yeah."
At this time, Istelle smiled twice at Issho's question before and then said.
"Now I am considered a part of this country. The king appointed me as a Holy Knight, so, Vice Admiral Issho, why did you come here at this time!"
Issho thought quickly in his mind when he heard Istelle's words.
Holy Knight? A position in this country? It's just that how could a wandering great swordsman suddenly join a country? What is she thinking?
Issho knew that in the previous Kendo Tournament, the marines had invited not only him but also other non-pirate warriors.
Obviously, Istelle must have refused at that time.
Now, she would quietly join this country. Was it because of the miracle in the newspaper last time? Or because of the king of this country?
