Chapter 173 – Dope (4)

Hearing support from Do-jin, Ilone joins the knight candidates and goes hunting.

Naturally, her knight candidates didn’t look at her with good eyes.

Isn’t it a situation where you seem to be benefiting from flirting with a man who has no skills?

Among the female knights who were recognized for their abilities alone, it was considered unsightly to get something from a man on their back.

“Ha, when it’s only about that much…….”
“Why don’t you go out and look?”
“You’re going to train with us with crappy, garbage, skills like that?”

The female knights touched Illone while looking at Dojin.

And the moment she realizes that Dojin isn’t intervening, she pours out every single insult that can come out of a human mouth.

Ilone endured all the insults and silently hunted her monsters.

With her fear of losing her life gone, she was able to step out a little more boldly and confidently.

‘Still… It’s not enough.’

As for her practical experience of her, she was superior to anyone in this position, but her life of her in the world was not something that could be solved by her experience of her alone.

The improvisation and responsiveness from her experience were the best of these, but after the first number, the foundation she had built so far showed the bottom.

‘If only I had swordsmanship…….’

As one of her guards her, the only martial arts she learned were very rudimentary, used only when catching criminals.

She even built up her skills in real battles rather than practicing for a long time…….

Do-jin, who was watching from behind her so that they wouldn’t get hurt or die, was able to figure it out right away.

Tell Ilone that her swordsmanship is lacking.

However, that was not something Dojin could do.
Ilone is old. She wasn’t even a genius.

Even if her Do-jin her teaches her her swordsmanship her to her her, such a magical thing does not happen that her dazzling growth her takes place and strikes everyone around her.

‘Those who have now come and learned the canonical way… It must be difficult to even pull-up a knight.’

It was not her swordsmanship that you had to cultivate.
At least, the exceptional combat experience and the combat method using it.
It was the only way for Ilone to grow.

The fact that a day is 24 hours makes no sense.
The reality that a week is 7 days is brutal.
Dojin’s time passed quickly like a beam of light.

He ran dungeons with his comrades during the day, elves in the afternoon, and knights at night.

Most of the 24 hours a day was spent in the dungeon.

‘Is this a human life?’

If I hadn’t had time to chat with the girls in my room every night, I would have exploded and charged into the dungeon right away.

I was living such a busy day.

Then one day.

“…… I have a favor.”
“Yes, Captain of our guard. What would you like to ask for?”

Ilone came to Dojin. When she first visited Dojin’s mansion, she hesitated and couldn’t open her mouth easily.

Perhaps, it’s because she doesn’t have easy words for her to say.

If you think about her recent events in her and the complexes she usually has, what she will ask for is fixed.

“Great.”
“A sword at me…….”

Looking at Do-jin, who he had accepted before he could even speak, Ilone asked if he was serious.

“No, I will really teach you…… ?”
“Then, you didn’t expect to teach me, but you came? That is even greater.”

When Do-jin exclaimed a teasing exclamation, Ilone stuck out her tongue as if he had made a mistake.

Yes, she believed in herself too. The fact that he was going to teach me the sword…….

Dojin looked at Illone who hesitated in front of him and said.

“Should we start with the Gubae rite?”

“Gradient… Jirye? What is it?”

“To bow nine times.”

Do-jin, who spread false knowledge to the people of the other world, taught Ilone the sword from that day on.

However, the swordsmanship taught by Do-jin was quite different from what Ilone had imagined.

“Oh, you are wrong there. Again.”

“Ugh, ugh…….”

Do-jin, who was staring at the night sky blankly, hit Illone’s thighs and shoulders with a wooden sword to correct her posture her, and then ordered her to do it again from the beginning.

Hearing that, Illone put on a screaming expression, but he didn’t give up.

In the first place, this training of hers was what she requested first, so if she had given up because of her difficulty her, she would have been greatly disappointed.

“Whoop, whoop! Ha, hook!”

Do-jin taught Ilone the swordsmanship he made. He didn’t bother to put a name on it. It was a swordsmanship that was embarrassing to attach a name to.

‘I can’t help it…….’

Since ancient times, swordsmanship required consideration not only about how to wield a sword, but also how to wield it.

It’s not just how fast and strong the sword is, but the angle of the foot, the width of the hand holding the hilt, and so on. The difference in class appears from the smallest details.

And those were all fields that required sense. It is a realm of innate ability where even learning is impossible without sensory talent.

There was an extremely difficult part for Ilone, who had no talent, to learn.

So— Do-jin used a very simple method to solve it.

“Come on, I told you to hold your hand in the wrong direction, the angle of your wrist, and your thumb to look at the sky, right?”

“Yeah, but—why do you need that kind of movement here… ?” ….”

“Why? Why are you curious about that? Just shut up and memorize it?”

It is to remember all the cases in which the sword can be wielded.

If it had been a normal disciple, or if it had been a talented disciple.
Do-jin would have taught her delicately from one to ten.

‘I can’t do that.’

However, Ilone was not a formal disciple, nor did he have any talent.

She said that if she was going to be strong like everyone else, she shouldn’t be like everyone else.

The road that others don’t go.
She had to walk the path of Sura.

“Ilone, you know…… You have no talent.”

“Hoo-wook! I know!”

“If you learn ten, you forget the first thing you learned, and you have to swing your sword a hundred times or a thousand times to memorize that ten.”

“What do you want to say-!”

“If you, who are not talented, want to beat those who are talented… No, if you want to follow…… It’s true that you have to work really hard.”

Back with this. Having swung the sword exactly one hundred times, Nee glared at his Dojin while holding his breath.

Seeing her lively attitude of her, Dojin smiled at her. There is only one thing that the untalented hard worker can keep up with the talented ones.

Just physical strength, Ilone’s physical strength his, which had been trained for years to arrest criminals, was excellent enough to be called a decent article.

“Good good. Are you full of stamina?”

“Huh, let’s get some rest!”

“You have to train next. Don’t worry. I haven’t seen anyone in another world who was crippled by overtraining.”

A world where the more you crave it, the stronger it becomes.
A world where the more you train a human being, the stronger he becomes.

So, it was a world where the more you train, the better.

“It’s impossible to become the world’s strongest, but…… I’ll make you the world’s strongest guard.”

Saying that, Dojin swung her sword at her.

* * *

A few weeks have passed since Ilone learned the sword from Dojin…….

With even the slowest horseman leveling up in front of his eyes, Ilone calmly went hunting with his knights.

“Shield!”

She, who had experience managing the guards as the captain of the guards, skillfully led the other candidates.

Her candidates also knew that it was better to have one conductor than to act individually, and they followed your orders very well, not rejecting your orders because they were of a lower rank than themselves.

The moment the hunt was completed safely, beams of light began to emerge from the bodies of the knights.

So, the moment the last knight candidate leveled up, a beam of light came out from Ilone’s body his.

“Ah, ah- ah ah……”

A feeling of ecstasy all over the body of her. A pleasure that cannot be replaced by any other experience.

Perhaps some of the adventurers who have experienced leveling up are going to the dungeon to feel this pleasure again.

After going through such a great experience that I can be sure of – Ilone looked at Dojin and bowed her head.

“…… Thanks Thanks to.”

Thanks to him – as he said, he has reached the level where he can claim himself as the strongest guard.

Of course, she wasn’t satisfied with that. Since she had leveled up, she decided to aim for a knight.

Upon hearing her words her, Do-jin burst into admiration for her and blessed her.

“You want to become a knight? You?”

“Yes.”

“It won’t be easy.”

“I have already finished talking with the lord.”

Ah- how the hell was he able to talk like that, Do-jin finally started to understand.

The lord of the dungeon must have been considerate of Do-jin and tried to accommodate Ilone’s convenience for her, and in the process of investigating what the two wanted, he must have figured out that Ilone wanted to become a knight.

After that, it’s very easy. The reason it’s difficult to become a knight is because no one hires a knight with no skills.

‘Networking is also a skill, isn’t it?’

And Ilone, who was expected to be Do-jin’s lover, became a candidate for a knight who must be appointed regardless of skill.

Since it happened to be level 2, there was no need for any special conditions.

If she wanted to, she would be able to become a knight of the lord at any time, and even if she immediately quit her job as a guard and turned to being an adventurer, she could still make dozens of times more money than she was making now.

“To work hard.”

Whichever one he chose, there was no doubt that he could live without lacking in fame or money.

Leveling up was like that. Grace bestowed by God. I reaped that grace too easily, but… Those who leveled up were still less than 1% of all mankind.

She had now reached the top 1% of humanity.
