chapter 19
Episode 19.
The Sword Master approached me with a refreshing expression.
“I thought this guy would react a little bit.”
“How would you react to that… .”
I can’t remember anything from training. It was a series of repetitions that made me faint when I came to my senses.
“Didn’t I tell you to rely on your senses!”
Now, I doubt whether the swordsman’s training is really helpful in developing his senses.
“But I’ve dealt with that golem before, and my intuition didn’t help at all.”
In the ruins, I tried poking at a place where the golem’s essence might be, but it was futile.
“What do you mean by that?”
“As I went, I stabbed where the golem’s essence might be, but it wasn’t.”
The swordsman raised his head and sighed.
“What the hell do you think it is? Does your persimmon look so omnipotent?”
“is not it?”
The swordsman told me about new senses.
“Perception refers to something that humans cannot easily feel. Do you remember when you felt mana?”
warm yet cool,
I felt such conflicting energy.
“yes.”
“The senses are like that.”
Is it an act of sensing mana? I don’t understand.
“I do not understand?”
“Have you ever seen Mana?”
“yes.”
I’ve seen it. Something that glows softly on the sword of a skilled swordsman. Isn’t that what mana is?
“It’s the aura that glows softly from the sword.”
“That is mana created through people, that is, mana processed through mana breathing. ask again Have you ever seen mana floating in the air?”
I swear I’ve never seen one in my life.
“doesn’t exist.”
“Perception is feeling the invisible. It’s like living.”
It makes a little sense. Perception is the feeling of something invisible.
Then why couldn’t I find the essence of the golem?
Such a question was answered by the Sword Master’s next words.
“Well, the senses don’t allow you to see mana. The world is overflowing with mana. That’s why you can’t feel mana.”
“Ah, the essence of the golem is also made of mana, so I guess I couldn’t find it?”
“What the intuition can feel is the will of the other person.”
The swordsman told me that mana synchronizes with a person’s emotions or will.
After all, it was a sense to be able to notice the other person’s impure intentions in advance. So, he said it was important to develop a sense of humor.
Thinking like that, I suddenly had an idea.
“If it’s an attack with an impure intention, the ones I’ve been hit by the Sword Saint-nim so far… .”
Doesn’t that sound like they all had nefarious intentions?
The swordsman laughed as if he was cool.
“Keuheup, I don’t mean it, so don’t be sad.”
“If you’re not sincere, you can’t feel it with your senses, right?”
“Only when he wields his sword does he put fake sincerity into it.”
“Is that really possible?”
Let me look suspiciously at the Sword Saint… .
“All sword masters know how to do that!”
“What is certain is that my senses seem to be working properly today.”
It was because he recognized the impure intentions of the Sword Master’s sincerity from outside the garden.
In a more brutal atmosphere than usual in the garden.
“From tomorrow, I will adjust to your skills again.”
fortunately out of misfortune If, by any chance, the swordsman who is less angry continues to fight the opponent on the highest difficulty level… .
‘Revenge or something, I should drop out and run away right away.’
***
The third lecture of the Sword Master has arrived. The opponent this time was Freed. To be precise, it was Fried and Seton.
After exchanging glances with Fried, he prepared for a fight.
‘I prepared a lot to deal with Fried.’
First of all, since Fried himself told me about his swordsmanship, I should use it.
I did a lot of training to deal with the talismans. It was like asking the swordsman separately.
“Fried, I will show you. A completely different me.”
“Ohh. I haven’t shown you anything before, but I’m going to show you something.”
Oh, that’s right. It is the first sparring with Fried.
“I’ll correct it, I’ll show you my skills.”
“I mean.”
Fried assumed the stance of Baldo.
I asked the Sword Saint to show me the sword sword several times in order to counter Fried’s sword sword.
I focused my eyes on Fried’s sword. You have to watch out for the moment.
The distance is gradually closing. I didn’t do anything, but I was sweating because I was nervous.
“now!”
Fried drew his sword. It is a sword that only seems infinitely slow to me who have seen the sword master’s sword.
However, Fried’s movement was never slow. It’s just slower than the Sword Saint.
I twisted my body to avoid the sword that was aiming at my stomach. Then he twisted his body and swung his sword with the rotation he received.
thud.
The sword felt heavy. Freed had retrieved his sword and unleashed it again.
I distanced myself from Fried to avoid the ensuing attack.
“Wow, that’s fast.”
It was a bit different from Freed’s sword swordsmanship, which contained everything in one attack.
“My sword sword is not the end of one attack, but dozens of consecutive sword swords.”
The speed of retrieving the sword and throwing it was very fast. I couldn’t think of a way to win.
I can avoid and block Fried’s attacks sufficiently. Even if I can’t win, I won’t lose.
‘An unexpected attack will be needed.’
I threw my sword into the sky. Then, he took out another sword and charged at Freed.
It was Freed who held out his sword as if he had been waiting. Concentrating on the tip of the sword, I continued to dodge.
As if I was annoyed by my constant dodging, Fried’s attacks got faster and faster.
cried Fried.
“Finish!”
The sword that Fried used all his strength aimed at me.
But that was the number I was aiming for. Matching the tip of the sword, I also swung.
I put the sword in my hand at the repulsive force I felt from the sword. As a result, Fried stumbled.
Fried smiled while staggering.
“I won.”
Fried was confident of victory.
I stretched my arms up. The sword I threw before fell at the right time.
He immediately grabbed the sword and slashed it down.
It was too late for the unbalanced Fried to block my attack.
“crazy!”
I slammed down with all my might, and Fried tried to block it with an unstable posture, but it was not enough.
My sword pierced the top of Fried’s head, and Fried lost consciousness as he took out the white of his body.
During Sword Master’s training, I was hit the most, and the part that hurt the most was the top of my head.
A thrilling sensation rose from the fingertips.
“It tasted like this!”
The Sword Master who always hit me on the top of my head made me understand. This hitting feeling was a new world itself.
A problem arose in Fried’s next turn, the match against Seton.
“Should I say that Seton was out of luck?”
Seton, who is a balanced type like me, was my inferior. Their skills were inferior to mine, and even their physiques were different.
That’s why I threw my sword at Seton to do it lightly.
“Take the sword!”
Seton smashed the sword that had been thrown at him to the floor.
And in an instant, I rushed at Seton and swung my sword.
Seton, who stepped back to avoid my sword, stepped on the sword he struck and fell backwards.
f*ck.
An unusual sound came from Seton, who hit the back of his head on the floor.
“Hey, are you okay?”
I shake Setten, but there is no response.
I assumed it was a serious situation.
“Patients, patients!”
Soon Seton was carried on a stretcher to the infirmary.
‘Phew, the quick response was very nice.’
While I was congratulating myself, I felt eyes on me. The students around me were watching me. It was definitely not a look with a good meaning.
I listened intently to their whispers.
“Really, how can you break the back of the head in Dalian?”
“I heard you cut off the opponent’s head in the previous match?”
“Wow, that’s really great. I hate fighting with him.”
Something seems to be misunderstood.
Some were intimidated by me, others looked at me with a warlike gaze.
It seems that this Dalian has made her a target of caution or attention from her classmates. I felt the need to clarify.
“excuse me… .”
I was about to explain, but the swordsman clapped at me and approached me.
“You relieved the stress you received while training with me. Good job, Suhar!”
“Uh, Sword Saint-nim, wait a minute…”
what. This isn’t it.
In the end, the misunderstanding could not be resolved. I became a public enemy of my classmates.
Moredt came up to me and patted me on the shoulder.
“You were a bit harsh.”
“No, I didn’t do that on purpose… … .”
Ea also came to me.
“At least I’ll be on your side. When stress accumulates, it is not good for the body. I understand.”
The moment Ea comforted me, the eyes of my classmates became more intense. Ea’s words confirmed that my actions were caused by stress.
‘Eh, I don’t know.’
Now that he has become a public enemy, he should take on the role of the villain of this lecture. I shouted to all who were looking at me.
“If you’re going to deal with me from now on, you’ll have to watch your head!”
That’s how I brought on the villain.
After becoming a villain, a lot has changed. The classmates who were confident in their skills attacked me with the momentum to kill me.
Conversely, those who were not confident in their skills wrapped up something on their heads and engaged in sparring.
Suddenly, a nickname came into being.
‘Supreme demon tribe.’
To be honest, in my opinion, finishing with the top of the head was the neatest. Why don’t you go in one room?
That’s why they aimed at the top of the head.
Everyone will notice my consideration only when the whole body is evenly hit.
Moredt came to me with some students.
“Now, the time has come to deal with the head horse tribe.”
“I’m counting on you.”
I reached out my hand to Moredt, but he didn’t accept it.
“Are you going to shake hands with the demons?”
Then some students surrounded Moredt and cheered. The appearance was like a cult follower and cult leader.
Moredt seemed to be enjoying the situation.
“I, the third son of the Faust family, will declare here that I will defeat the Matriarchs!”
“No, a little… .”
Moredt’s eyes were not serious, perhaps because he was overindulged. He was really looking at me like a demon.
“Huhu, I can’t wait for Dalian.”
With a sinister laugh, Moredt led his followers and left somewhere.
Laughter came out of nowhere.
“It’s ridiculous.”
“Well, who would say such a thing?”
Ea’s voice came from behind me.
Ea followed behind.
“But it doesn’t seem like everyone is serious, so it’s okay.”
“Seton told the truth. It’s not like you did that. You stepped on the sword and slipped. He said it with a lot of embarrassingness.”
“I don’t even have to talk.”
It’s not that the current situation is so bad.
No, on second thought, if Seton hadn’t done anything weird, he wouldn’t have been treated like this.
‘Seton said it honestly and well.’
But is Seton’s fault for the current handling?
One could say that the culprit was the Sword Saint. The words of the Sword Master were decisive.
‘I have to take revenge on the sword saint in the final match.’
If there are 40 students, I’m sure I’ll be able to give the Sword Saint a shot.
It may be the only opportunity while attending the academy.
“Sword Saint, let’s see.”
