Episode 306 – Academy (39)
“I just need to get stronger.”
There was no hesitation. Just fight with all your might. He swung his sword at the blue orc.
-Wow!
His response was simple. With his belt tied to his belt, he threw away the regime.
Kwaaaaang!
A gust of wind blew from his fist. The bundle of steel that I used during the surprise attack was reproduced exactly as it was.
The force poured down like a bomb, but it did not retreat.
Jeez.
Rather, it moved forward. All his mind was focused on the offensive. I sharpened my senses by walking among the bundles of steel that would shatter if I touched them.
‘Geukye (極銳).’
Infinitely sharp. I imagined a silver blade that would cut through anything it touched.
Sigh!
The gust of wind split from the upward slash. A clear path to the oak was revealed. He took a step forward and straightened his sword.
Suddenly!
I cut it off with my forearm. A piece of severed flesh hovered in the air. Blue blood was scattered everywhere.
-Aaaaah!
With blood bursting out. My arm grew again. On the outside, he was still fine. The cutting seemed meaningless.
But is that really the case? Is there really no cost to playing like that?
‘That can’t be possible.’
I was sure. If it really was like that. You probably didn’t even try to avoid it in the first place.
-Crrrrgh!
The blue orc threw itself down. It became covered in dirt and rolled around on the ground. I rolled around to avoid the swinging sword.
‘···Where on earth did you learn that gesture?’
The skill of rolling on the ground is quite good. It seemed like he was rolling around recklessly, but he managed to protect his head. He desperately defended the only vital spot he had.
I survived by sacrificing my arms and legs, but that was as far as I could go.
Hiss!
Just before the silver long sword struck like a thunderbolt and split his spine.
My skin stood on end from a chilling sensation. I reflexively tilted my head back. It was an instinctive action that occurred before I was even aware of it.
Pee it!
Blood spurted out from my cheek later. My skin was cut by a sharp blade that passed by.
I took a step back and observed the orc.
-Geek!
Suddenly, a white long sword appeared in the guy’s hand. No, to be exact, it is a bone knife. Long, sharp bones protruded from the palm. He swung it like a long sword.
I glanced down. He said, flicking away the drops of blood that were flowing down.
“Let’s join with the sword?”
A laugh came out. It was what I hoped for.
Cheaeng!
The metal clanging sound rang out as the blades clashed with each other. Even though it was bone, it was harder than steel.
“Is the sword good?”
Quad Deuk!
As if competing for strength. The two blades pressed against each other. The blades that touched each other creaked.
The orc’s muscles swelled. He pushed in aggressively, but he had no intention of dealing with him.
Slurp!
Sparks flew from the blade. The silver long sword slid along the bone knife. As the sword surface was pushed away, it penetrated all the way to the wrist.
Sigh!
The tendons were cut out and the wrists were made into rags. But he was still strong.
He swung his regenerated arm in an instant.
-Kyaaagh!
His swordsmanship, which was clumsy as a child, grew rapidly.
Cough!
The bone knife and the blade met and sparks flew. Before the sparks fluttering in the air hit the floor.
Dozens of sums continued in that short period of time.
Chachaechaechaeng!
The one-sided offensive was stopped. The sword wielded by the orc pierced his veins.
‘Oh..’
The corners of his mouth rose. As the swords were divided, the gap narrowed. It feels like fighting a rapidly growing genius.
Before I knew it, my clumsy swordsmanship had reached its peak.
Pee it!
The shoulder collar was cut off. The orc’s sword suddenly became sharp enough to touch me. I couldn’t look at it funny anymore. Still, strangely, I laughed.
‘Good night.’
The more dangerous it became, the more enjoyable it became. We’ve finally reached a level where we can fight.
Hiss!
He jerked his head. The white blade of the sword grazed her forehead and cut off her hair.
‘Is this my swordsmanship?’
The sword he was swinging was familiar. Total attack. It was like looking into a mirror. So it looked better.
‘It’s full of gaps.’
It was evident that he had learned the sword through actual combat. We were so focused on the offense that our defense was lax.
If the attack fails, a gap is created. It was a natural way of life. I lashed out my sword and aimed for the moment when my balance was lost.
Sigh!
A short swing of the blade split his side. Blood poured out from my wide open waist. If it were a human, the wound would already be fatal.
However, he is a monster that can regenerate even severed arms. The fight continued.
-Crrrrgh!
Every time he stabbed a gap, his swordsmanship changed. He worked on his weaknesses and gradually got closer to perfection.
And… It was the same for me.
Wow!
The red-hot blade collided with the bone knife. As much as his sword has become sharper. My blade also became sharper. The more I swung the sword, the more it constantly improved.
Like learning by looking in a mirror. We copied each other’s swordsmanship. I wandered around looking for gaps and honed my sword skills, which I lacked.
Whoops!
The swords collided and a shock wave exploded. Before you know it, the sum of tens becomes hundreds. We exchanged swords constantly, but there was no resolution.
-Gigeek! Humans are great!
Suddenly, their swordsmanship became equal. Unable to find any more gaps, the Baek Middle Ages continued.
The orc burst out laughing, and so did I. I wondered how far this guy could follow me.
Actually, my swordsmanship is not that great. Basic sword techniques that every hunter knows. It was refined in practice.
‘My main focus is Honwonil Qigong.’
A technique that wields the inner energy itself as a weapon. We began operating Honwonil Qigong in earnest.
‘Heavy.’
Quang!
The bone knife that collided with bounced off violently. The lightly wielded blade contained a great deal of strength.
The next steps were filled with the energy of extreme yin. Tooung! A cool wave of air swept through the surroundings.
Damn it!
The temperature dropped sharply. Frost formed all over his body. Movement slowed down.
-Kruk!?
I barely managed to block the thrust of the sword, but my balance was already broken. The nape of the neck was clearly visible.
‘That’s it.’
When Honwongi was put into full operation, it could not keep up. It was a shame, but I had no intention of watching it.
‘Green onion (破).’
The energy of crushing seeped into the man’s muscles. I swung my sword at the stiffly paralyzed orc.
The moment when I tried to cut off his head with a single sword.
-Craaaaagh!
The guy’s shoulder split open and his new arm sprouted. The bone knife that grew on his palm was a bonus.
Cough!
Just before decapitating. The silver long sword flew out.
‘···I thought one sword wasn’t enough, so I made more arms.’
It was absurd. The guy swung two bone knives viciously. It looked threatening on the outside, but it was meaningless.
Kwasik!
The floor I was standing on cracked. The weight of the whole body was amplified. The mass, which had increased by several dozen times, was swung like a mace.
Quaaaaang!
The bone knives bounced off at once and collided with each other, and that was the end.
-Grrrr!
The guy was embarrassed. He hurriedly swung his sword, but it was clumsy. He couldn’t even straighten his posture because his swords were intertwined.
It couldn’t have been easy to handle dual swords that I wasn’t familiar with. The vital point was clearly revealed.
Shhh!
He swung his sword mercilessly. The silver long sword cut his throat. The moment when more than half of the thick muscle was cut.
Crack.
The blade stopped. The guy’s muscles swelled to the point of bursting and grabbed hold of his blade. Thick tendons sprouted and blocked the forward movement.
I frowned.
‘It won’t be cut?’
I applied force, but it didn’t cut any further. It was so hard and tough that even his strength could not cut it.
Gurgling!
The sound of something writhing gave me a chill. The guy’s whole body swelled as if it was going to explode.
He let go of the sword that could not be drawn and walked away.
Puhwaak!
The blue orc’s muscles expanded rapidly. The sword stuck to his neck was not even visible. It disappeared, buried in the swollen flesh.
-Gwaaaaah!
In an instant, it grew bigger than the house and roared. It waved its huge tentacles and glowed.
A foreign energy swept everywhere. It was so unpleasant that it made skin crawl.
All battles stopped due to the overwhelming force. The surrounding Orcs and Paladins stiffened. I didn’t dare move and looked at the monster.
‘···Is this the energy of foreign media?’
He hit his arm as if he was having a seizure. A forearm thicker than a log slammed into the dirt floor.
-Wow!
I made a mess around me and beat myself up. I went on a rampage, hurting myself like crazy.
‘It doesn’t even look like an orc anymore.’
Just a monster. The height alone has already exceeded 5 meters. Every time the bundle of tentacles moved, the ground cracked. The ground shook as if there had been an earthquake.
I took out a new sword from my inventory. That time when I was staring at that guy. The constant waves of air stopped.
‘Hmm···?’
The soaring momentum died down, and the continued expansion stopped. The size, which had grown as large as a small building, began to compress.
-Krr..Luk!
As if being forced into a narrow box. Returned to human form. This time it wasn’t even an orc. It became just a blue mannequin with no eyes, nose, or mouth.
The energy of foreign media that was pressing down on all sides also hid its presence.
Sigh!
The guy pulled out the sword stuck in my neck. I grabbed it and took the top position. He pointed his sword at me.
-Kikigeek.. Let’s fight, humans.
A strange thing that cannot be understood. I frowned.
He gave up his huge body on his own. Overwhelming mass is great violence in itself. There are sometimes stronger humanoid beings, but they are not monsters. I could tell just by looking at the energy I felt.
Clearly weakened.
Why bother returning to human form? I couldn’t contain my curiosity.
“Why did you come back?”
The blue mannequin spoke in response to a short question that left out many things.
-You have to learn. Technology. You have to be strong.
It was the same thing as before, but somehow it sounded different.
“···Right.”
I still couldn’t understand it though. At least the doubts are gone.
I aimed my sword at the guy who had returned to being a prosecutor. There wasn’t much reason needed to share swords with each other.
