I Became the Only Buffer in the Academy

229 – The King’s Sword – 4

Excalibur.

This sword, said to have been used by King Arthur, is one of the most famous swords in many creations.

And it was the same in Hero Academia.

It is a top-tier relic and provides bonuses to all types of swordsmanship, while also providing good stat-raising options and skills.

Additionally, after going through a few events, I was able to shoot beams from my sword.

People who played Hero Academia also looked at Elizabeth standing blankly holding Excalibur, the equipment that sword-type characters are required to wear at all costs.

He waved his hand at her, who was just staring at the sword in her hand, as if she hadn’t come to her senses yet.

“Ah! Gwae, it’s okay!”

“Really? That’s good. Why don’t you try your hand at swordsmanship?”

“Ah yes…”

She too would know the power of Excalibur. With a flushed face, she let out a small breath and began to use the Taylor sword technique.

Each time Excalibur, enveloped in golden energy, was swung, the traces left around were very beautiful.

“…Amazing. The sword is improving her swordsmanship greatly.”

“This is why it is a famous sword…”

The level of her swordsmanship has risen to the point where even those who have seen her swordsmanship cannot help but be amazed.

Excalibur was a great sword that greatly improved the user’s skills.

“It’s a good sword, right?”

“Oh?! Ah… yes!!”

After practicing Taylor’s sword technique, Elizabeth came to her senses and nodded at the lady’s words. The noble lady, who was looking at her happily, raised her hand.

“Now. I want to see if you can handle the Lake Sword well. Please come back.”

“Uh… but hey. Can I use this nice sword?”

“If the sword chooses you, it’s okay to use it. Oh, and when the final test is over, throw the sword into the lake.”

“yes?”

“I need to make sure you passed the test and that the sword chose you.”

At the noble lady’s casual words, Elizabeth looked at Excalibur again. And he nodded slightly.

“All right.”

With that, the noble lady disappeared just as quickly as she had appeared.

The events that had just happened were like a dream. However, Excalibur in Elizabeth’s hand showed that this was now reality.

“It’s an amazing sword, Elizabeth. How much do you think your skills have improved?”

“Hmm… I think it’s at the same level as when I received Johan’s buff to its maximum.”

“Then, if you receive Johan’s buffs as well… you will become stronger to a level that almost rivals mine.”

Old Man Breath’s expression brightened. And Jeong Soo-yeon was also happy and stroked Elizabeth’s head.

“Wow. Excalibur… how much will it cost if I sell it?”

Ki Ki-yeol, who was watching from the side, had his eyes shining.

You wouldn’t know unless you told him, who isn’t even a swordsman, how good Excalibur is.

So, in the end, we have to speak in numbers.

“Isn’t it worth the price?”

“Wow. I’m jealous of that dog… Hey. Can’t I get something else?”

“It’s something else…”

“Don’t just help Elizabeth get what she’s getting, help me too, huh? A friend, huh?”

“Okay, okay. If you help me later, I’ll help you when I go get something decent.”

“oooh~!”

Secure a healer to participate in the fight against the apocalypse!

He’s an easy guy after all. I said after lightly patting him on the back.

“Now let’s go take the test.”

“Ah! That’s right! Let’s go!”

Holding Excalibur in her hand, she smiled brightly and nodded. Is it that good? I walked up to Elizabeth, put my arm around her shoulder, and said,

“You really like it?”

“Of course! It’s a sword that my family has been looking for for a long time! No, it’s not just my family! Anyone who uses a sword in England, or in the world, would be interested?!”

“It’s perfect for Elizabeth~! It suits her really well!”

Considering the golden hilt, sword hilt, and other subtle golden colors, it suited Elizabeth quite well.

Elizabeth smiled shyly at Yoo Cho-ah who mentioned that.

“Okay then, let’s go. What is the first test?”

When we walked across the lake and arrived at the place to take the first test, what was waiting for us was a corpse.

“That’s…”

“Oh my god! Draug…!!”

Old Man Breath seems to know what that corpse is. While he was shocked, light began to emanate from the corpse. When the corpse, enveloped in an ugly red light, rose, we were horrified and aimed our weapons.

The draugr, who was under so much pressure that one could even call him a lich, opened his mouth at us.

– ■■■■■■■■!!!

“W-What are you saying?!”

“Ugh…! It’s an unpronounceable language. To roughly translate…”

“…I guess you understand without translating?”

No sooner had Yuchoa finished speaking than the draugr waved his hand. A vicious red energy shot out like a cannonball and flew at us, and Cheon Su-ho was horrified and raised his shield.

-Quaaa-!!!

He survived because he cast the Diamond Buddha before Cheonsuho defended himself. If it was at the level of the Diamond Sutra, even Cheonsu Lake would not have been able to stop it.

He was pushed back and trembled.

“Hey! Why are you so strong?!”

“Because he’s not just a draugr. He’s the king of the draugr!! Come on, everyone! Attack! Attack!”

Even if you freeze, you will only end up being attacked again and again. I immediately used multiple buffs and then gave Elizabeth soul protection and soul power.

“The center of this battle is Elizabeth!! Elizabeth!! Run wild!”

“Ah…!! Yes!!”

Now that I have a new sword, I need to use it properly.

Elizabeth nodded, lightly holding Excalibur and quickly rushing forward. As she ran, leaving behind a trail of golden light, and got closer, the draugr roared again and swung his arms at her.

-Quaaa!!

Dust explodes with a loud noise like a bomb exploding. It’s not even a skill, it’s just a normal hit, but it’s powerful enough to make a big dent in the ground. I wonder if this is really too harsh.

But our Elizabeth was not easy either. After easily dodging the attack, turn around and perform a quick spinning slash.

While the Draug was staggered by the attack, Jin Si-yeon’s quick attack, which was already close by, began to leave scars on its body.

“Guys!! Get back!!”

Elizabeth and Jin Si-yeon’s attacks and attacks continue. We work well together because we have been fighting together for a long time. And what follows is Yu Choa’s bombardment.

At her cry, Elizabeth and Jin Si-yeon took a step back, and Yoo Cho-ah suddenly threw the magical transformation that had been completed with increased magical power at the guy.

-Kuuut!!!

Dust rose up along with a huge explosion. Those who stepped back swallowed their saliva, and Cheon Su-ho spoke in an uneasy tone.

“I want to say that…”

“sun.”

Because he didn’t die anyway.

“Did you kill it?!”

– ■■■■!!!

I knew it would be like this. As the dust settled, the draugr roared and lightly stepped on the ground.

We aimed our weapons again at the sight of the creature running towards us, accompanied by a powerful sound that shook the ground.

It will be real from now on.

.

.

.

The draugr king was so strong that we were all exhausted.

But in the end, he was decapitated by Excalibur.

We shouted out how many times we had killed him just in case, but he didn’t wake up.

Ugh. Disgusting guy. It’s really a shame that this guy doesn’t appear in the main story, so it’s scary to even think about it.

“…This is the first test…”

Everyone looked fed up. I like Excalibur, but I didn’t expect the test to be this difficult.

“Phew… Are there three exams left?”

“Yes.”

“…This is terrible.”

Even he, an S-class hero, is having a hard time, so what does everyone else think? But I can’t help it. Because I have to take the test.

I rested for a day at the house in the picture and took the second test. The opponent for the second test was someone who failed to become a dragon.

In other words, it is a story about an Imoogi.

Against an Imoogi whose power was almost that of a dragon, we fought a harder battle than the Draug King. It was a good idea to bring two real healers. Otherwise it would have been dangerous.

Still, I thought it was okay because I somehow passed.

After the second exam, we were completely exhausted when we took the third and fourth exams of similar difficulty.

“This doesn’t relieve fatigue…”

“It’s not because of the liver…”

Is it possible to make a joke even in a situation like this? It’s really amazing. I patted Yoo Cho-ah, who was completely helpless. She grinned as she felt my touch and leaned against me.

“…Huh… I passed all the tests, so now all I have to do is go to the lake.”

Old Man Breath also looks tired. But I passed all the tests, so I just thought it was over.

Everyone sat down and rested for a while and headed to the lake with a relaxed mind. When they arrived at the lake, the noble lady was waiting with a smile.

“You passed the test with flying colors. Now all that’s left is to see if the sword will choose you.”

-Wooow…!!

An exit from the ruins is created with a low vibration sound. and.

“Ugh?!”

“what’s this?!”

A rope of light was hung around my body. While she was panicking about the rope being so strong that it would not loosen even if she used all her strength, the noble lady spoke to Elizabeth in a warm voice.

“If the sword rejects you, you will never have this sword.”

“……”

“So, child, I will give you a chance. If you let me become a resident of Avalon… I will persuade the sword to give it to you.”

“…What do you mean?”

“It’s not a bad offer, either. Avalon is an eternal utopia. It can truly be called paradise. You can rest comfortably there. So…”

The noble lady offered a very sweet temptation.

“Would you like to exchange that sword for interest?”

And at that suggestion, Elizabeth threw Excalibur toward the lake without hesitation.

“Excalibur is a good sword, but there are some things it cannot compromise! Ohhohohohohoho!!!”

The noble lady who accepted Excalibur at her confident words smiled with satisfaction.

“You have something that cannot be given up, and you also have the heart to protect it. That’s great, knight. You are fully qualified.”

“Now! Come check it out! The Sword of the Lake has chosen me!”

“Confirmation has already been completed.”

The noble lady smiled and raised her hand. At that moment, a water droplet was created in the air and headed towards Elizabeth’s hand.

“The Sword of the Lake has already chosen you. So, knight, will you promise me one thing? If the time comes for you to die, you will return this sword to the Lake.”

Elizabeth smiled brightly at those words.

“As much as you want!!”

“Thank you. Then, in return for your promise…”

The Lady of the Lake raised her hand again. The small but luxurious-looking bottle contains the softly glowing water she extracted from the lake.

The noble lady who handed it to Elizabeth nodded with an expression full of satisfaction.

“I will give you water from the lake that can cure all diseases. Use it where you need it.”

From Excalibur to Elixir!

It’s worth going through the difficult ruins!
