Warhammer 40: My Fiancée Fulgrim.

Chapter 27 Fighting to Survive!
To be precise, it should be Aqua Duna.

The Second Company Commander of the Third Legion, the strongest swordsman during the Great Expedition, and the strongest, most powerful, and most domineering swordsman among the two hundred remaining imperial princes.

She was known as the "leader of the two hundred swordsmen," the "first court swordsman," and "the eldest daughter of Fukugen."

With his outstanding performance of lasting five minutes in a one-on-one fight against a Primarch and stabbing him twice during that time, he achieved the third-best result among mortals in terms of combat record against Primarchs.

(The first two are from Nukelia)
She possesses superb swordsmanship that is almost divine, and unparalleled and formidable one-on-one combat ability.

And that historical culinary skills, emotional intelligence, and artistic painting and papermaking.

After all, the Third Legion has always been a team that produces many extraordinary individuals.

Since joining Casca, it seems that all that's missing now is a talking white Labrador.

Aqua, who had just returned, had neat and capable-looking head of short white hair, a polite smile on her face, and was wearing a baker's uniform the size of a Space Marine.

On his left and right hips were two Shanabar sabers.

The sword on the left is simple yet elegant; even though it's sheathed, you can still feel the cold glint of its blade.

As for the right side, it was wrapped in golden silk.

Even when she was just making cookies, she still carried those two military knives with her, never leaving them behind.

"Were they two imperial prince recruits arranged by Fugrim?"

Seeing that the two people in the room were still unaware of her "background", Aqua raised the tray in her hand with great hope.

"Would you like to eat something first?"

Then she saw her two new apprentices shaking their heads faster than space travel.

"Tsk."

Having long been accustomed to this, she clicked her tongue in exasperation.

"Then let's get started."

She drew her sword from her left side with a crisp sound.

In an instant, her aura immediately subsided.

It was as if a personality switch occurred the moment the knife was drawn.

Even though she was only wearing a chef's uniform, her cold eyes and sharp gaze that seemed to see through everything revealed her extremely rich combat experience.

"Lucius, you go first."

After drawing her sword, Aqua walked into the training cage, her tone turning noticeably colder.

"Attack me with your best swordsmanship, don't hold back."

"Then, Master, please forgive me!"

Now, Lucius, unaware of his opponent's background, got excited and wanted to put on a show for his new master.

He casually picked up a dueling sword of mortal size and rushed towards his opponent.

As they charge towards their opponent, they also perform a beautiful sword dance with their dueling swords.

Even when he was still on Chemos, Lucius was a renowned gladiator in the Carax Arena.

With his dazzling swordsmanship, despite his young age, he was undefeated in duels, with no equal among his opponents.

He is hailed as the strongest young swordsman in Chemos.

He was confident that even though he, as a mortal, couldn't inflict much harm on his master, his magnificent swordplay would be enough to earn his master's favor.

when!
Facing Lucius's dazzling swordplay, Aqua simply watched him coldly, her saber deflecting his attack with a swift, concise, yet exceptionally elegant movement.

At the same time, he took a step forward and slammed the back of the blade heavily onto Lucius's calf, making him feel numb.

The entire sequence of movements was extremely slow, as if deliberately taking care of the opponent's actions, rather than being as swift as those of a Space Marine.

Snapped!
"Unsteady gait."

Lucius desperately wanted to turn around and stab back, but this move had already been anticipated by his opponent.

Snapped.

"Fancy moves."

Another powerful blow with the back of the blade sent him flying, sword and all.

Hope everyone is okay.

Seeing Lucius's miserable state, Casca prayed silently in his heart.

"It's all flashy and superficial, with absolutely no substance."

Aqua shook her head coldly.

"He has good talent, but he's not up to the task."

"Next is you, Casgar."

Seeing Aqua raise her sword in a gesture, Kaska picked up the small mortal training sword Shanabal beside her and nodded toward her.

"Concession."

The sense of oppression from facing them head-on is far stronger than from watching them from the sidelines.

Fortunately, the thirty years he spent learning and training with Fugrim had allowed his swordsmanship to improve by leaps and bounds.

He was certain that even the exceptionally talented Lucius would not be his match in a real fight.

Casca lowered its center of gravity, focused its attention, and charged towards its opponent.

when!
But the opponent easily blocked it and instantly counterattacked. *Smack!*
The back of the other person's knife slammed into his right hand in an instant, making his arm go numb and nearly causing him to drop the military knife on the spot.

"Hasteful actions".

damn it!
He had anticipated that his opponent would attack like this, and he had seen the attack, but he just couldn't block or dodge it!

A fierce fighting spirit and a sense of unwillingness to admit defeat welled up in my heart.

"Go Casgar!"

As for Lucius, who had just stood up, he gloated and egged him on.

Seeing that she had successfully knocked her opponent's weapon away with her first strike, Aqua swiftly placed her knife against Casca's neck to signify that the battle was over.

when!
"Arrogant and haughty—hmm?"

But his incredibly fast parry was actually blocked by Casgar.

He raised his two-handed military knife using only the strength of his left hand, blocking the attack with the horizontal blade.

Although she wasn't using any force and was only preparing to put her arm around his neck, Casca's ability to react so quickly was indeed somewhat unexpected.

Use one hand to wield a two-handed sword.

Aqua inexplicably remembered the other knife tucked into her waistband.

"interesting."

"Although his movements are hasty and impulsive, he seems to have good talent and practices diligently."

"Judging from your footwork and swordsmanship, Lord Fugrim must have taught you quite a bit, right?"

Casca nodded.

"That's a real waste of time."

Aqua usually doesn't mince words.

Casgar could only respond with a wry smile.

"Both of you are only considered average in terms of basic talent."

"But unfortunately, one is vain and values ​​fame more than reality; the other is impatient for quick success and always thinks about getting to the top in one step."

Aqua shook her head with displeasure.

As for her advice, it was indeed very insightful.

“No matter how much you teach, it’s useless if you don’t correct these bad habits.”

"You two, take your training swords and practice on your own."

"Master."

Lucius smiled obsequiously and moved closer to Aqua.

"When we have a duel, we always have to have some kind of prize involved, right?"

As he spoke, his gaze fell upon the wall covered with master-crafted military knives hanging there.

"You said, how about—"

"it is good."

Aqua agreed quickly.

She turned around and picked up the tray: "You two, the loser gets to eat my cookies for dinner."

!

!

In an instant, the way Casca and Lucius looked at each other changed slightly.

Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet!
when!
Their weapons collided instantly at an extremely fast speed.

"Lucius! You damned bastard! Go eat by yourself, why are you dragging me into this!"

"This—how was I supposed to know it would turn out like this! Take this!"

"What the hell! A sneak attack? What happened to your honor as a duelist?"

"What do you know! I'm fighting to survive!"

"Hmph! You despicable bastard, try this!"

"You?! You actually—"

"Hehe, I'm determined to win!"

The two new apprentices were indeed full of enthusiasm.

"Is what I made really that bad?"

But Aqua, as his master, didn't seem happy about it.

dong dong.

Beneath her white coat, Chief Pharmacist Meluxin, with heavy dark circles under her eyes, gently knocked on the door.

She interrupted their fight, where each of them was displaying their unique skills.

"Recruit Lucius, come over here to prepare for your modification surgery."

　Oh no, could someone really be mistaking me for a father-in-law?
