Chapter 6 – 006 Give the Flesh and Take the Bones!
The point where Claire and Yuha ran towards each other.
Minsu. No, his head has already been hurting from this sparring, which has so many things to take care of.
‘First, Claire Anasta. The daughter of Duke Anasta.’
One of the four dukes of the Empire, Anastasia, with her unique azure blue hair, is a talent that can never be missed in the ‘adjustment period to the other world academy’, and was the best party member to be with from the beginning to the end.
Its characteristic is competent steelmaking.
An attacker who boasts the best cost-effectiveness by shedding power with Anastasia’s unique soft swordsmanship and making a fatal attack with a counter, no matter how strong the opponent is.
In terms of martial arts, it’s a swordsman that feels like a non-partisan.
Claire, who has a high probability of owning evasion due to her sword skills and a fatal attack with a counter, is definitely a character that pays for any raid.
However, as it is specialized in interpersonal battles, it is relatively weak compared to other characters in quantity battles, but it is a disadvantage that can be sufficiently covered, so there is no problem.
Due to his easy-going and honest personality, which is not like a high-ranking aristocrat, the recruiting conditions are not difficult.
Therefore, this position was a great opportunity for Xerath to check her skills, which is the easiest to recruit.
Of course, she couldn’t concentrate properly because of her gray-haired man who was dealing with her.
‘Claire seems to be as strong as I thought she was. There’s no problem…’
However, if it’s a problem, she is Yu-ha, a gray-haired guy who acts as Claire’s opponent.
When she heard the name, she guessed that she was probably from the eastern part of the country, but it cannot be ruled out that her name could be a pseudonym, given that she travels with Lilith.
Actually, Lilith herself doesn’t have much intention of hiding her name, so the fact that she uses the name Lily is humorous.
A man named Yu was fighting hard against Claire using crude swordsmanship and a greatsword that suited him.
No, if you look closely, it seemed to be pushed a little bit.
However, Claire has enough manpower to carry out quests outside the academy right away.
She didn’t mean that her gray-haired man was weak, since she wasn’t already at the level of a mere cadet.
‘Does it feel like I’m filling it with experience rather than being talented?’
The man named Yu, while struggling to block Claire’s sword, did not miss any gaps he could see, and counterattacked gracefully.
However, he was frustrated several times by Claire, who turned the counterattack back into a counterattack.
‘As expected… I haven’t seen anything particularly outstanding yet.’
In terms of skill, that is.
In the first place, the fact that he was with Lilith, the strongest being in this land, was what disturbed Xerath the most.
“You seem to have a lot on your mind.”
“!!!”
When I looked to the side in amazement, Lilith was there as if she had always been standing next to Xerath.
Maybe he thought he might reach out to him, but not so soon.
He never thought he would do that outright.
“Since you got some help earlier, let me give you a special piece of advice.”
“…”
“I’d rather keep my mouth shut if I don’t know what to say… That’s not bad. Then, keep things simple.”
Even though Lilith’s pupils were not looking at him, but constantly looking at the man named Yu, Xerath had no choice but to close his eyes tightly at the intangible gaze he could feel.
“I honestly don’t care what you know or what you’re curious about. ‘Just ignore it.’ If that’s the only thing you keep in mind.”
If you only hear the lines, the bad ending route is confirmed.
Because Lilith, whose identity is suspected, always gave me a bad ending.
However, Xerath knew that Lilith’s words contained a hint of mercy, albeit weakly.
Otherwise, she would have already died.
“Whoops. Then I’m alone. I can’t show my master I’m talking to an outsider.”
I saw Lilith, who was next to me, sitting in her original seat and looking at Yuha.
‘A hallucination magic.’
Power is also strong, but her own magic that tells why Lilith, the vampire queen, becomes her worst boss.
The psychedelic magic pattern from phase 2 has always been the main reason why raid builds are meticulously organized.
Xerath, who had already realized that she had been under a hallucinatory spell without even realizing it, laughed hysterically.
She thought there would be at least some kind of prognostic phenomenon, but the game and reality were different.
‘A hallucination magic was implemented in the middle of the academy, but no one noticed.’
Even the target would be all the people here.
‘Isn’t the academy principal here… If it were her, she might have noticed.’
Rather, Xerath thought it was fortunate that he wasn’t here.
The academy principal is strong enough, but in front of Lilith, she is only vaguely strong.
I decided that the gray-haired man and Lilith should be put on hold indefinitely.
It’s too dangerous to act hastily now that you’ve been caught watching.
Right now…There’s nothing I can do about it.
I lowered my head naturally from lethargy, and I tasted a fishy taste from my lips that I had bitten too hard, but I didn’t care.
At the point of thinking like that, the battle between Yuha and Claire was already reaching its end.
***
I was honestly careless.
She has long, straight hair that sways in the color of water, and a beautiful appearance that may not be as good as Lily’s, but if you run into her while passing by, you’ll probably make her look back at least once.
Unfortunately, I didn’t expect that this delicate-looking girl, who was full of regret in her heart (physical) side, would be this strong.
I tried to mix up various improvisations, but the blue-haired friend didn’t get any seeds, perhaps because the basics were already solid, so it was just a big difference in skills.
Besides, since I had never learned swordsmanship, the blue-haired swordsmanship gradually found the optimal path and put pressure on me, as if my promiscuous swordsmanship was getting more and more familiar.
‘I’m leaving at this rate.’
In fact, even if she was defeated like this, she didn’t think she would be eliminated from the academy.
Right now, the blue-haired friend was showing too overwhelming talent, and I was also in a situation where I showed enough skills.
Even after seeing this, I am a man who has the record of breaking through to the 19th floor of the dungeon.
Although the sad truth is that he did miss the Ria bus.
But since I’m stronger than I was back then, I wonder if I’ll be able to break through the 19th floor by myself.
Perhaps if it were me in the past, I would have just resigned at this point and admitted my defeat.
‘Still, I really want to win today.’
The reason doesn’t matter.
I was about to declare to Lily that I would fuck you today, but I thought that if I lost in Dalian, I would not be able to keep my dignity as an owner.
And I knew one sure way to win in this situation.
In a state where the ‘safety’ of my life is guaranteed like this, I can become very, very strong.
“To be honest, I didn’t expect you to last this long.”
“To be honest, I think I’ve been too conceited all this time.”
I tried to hold on until the best chance to win by matching the words properly.
It’s a method that can have the opposite effect if you do it clumsily.
If she continued to attack like this, her blue-haired friend’s victory would be almost certain, but she stopped her attacks for a moment, stepped back, and tried to catch her breath.
Those words are no different from blowing a trailer to me that they will soon attack with all their heart.
Are you planning to properly impress the academy?
“Certainly you are strong.”
Hearing her words, I gently took her left hand off the greatsword she was holding with both hands, raised it with her right hand, and pointed at her proudly.
This is a kind of provocation.
It’s a small trick to attack me with more power and hope that the timing I want will come.
“I think this Dalian will be your victory.”
“…Are you admitting defeat? Now?”
That’s not it. A girl who likes to have her own way. Don’t make assumptions.
“To? That’s not it. Winning or losing is something you have to go to the end to know.”
“Yes. Is it so. That attitude of not giving up. It would be okay to see you again.”
It’s an honor.
The blue-blue lady who tensed the muscles of her whole body, let out her exhaled breath, and then attacked me again.
Where are you going to aim for?
She was able to predict the destination by quickly calculating in her head the extension of the tip of her sword stabbing at an unprecedented speed.
‘Left shoulder.’
Although it was fast, it was a strong attack that felt like a checker because it wanted to pull me back to its own pace.
If I defended my shoulder, it would have taken my soul out with the linkage.
“But sorry!”
“To?”
Woowook.
Without any defense or evasion, I rather accelerated from my side and jumped out in order to receive the sword that came toward my shoulder with my shoulder.
The speed of Mr. Parangga and the speed of my run combined to make Mr. Parang’s effort to retract the sword was in vain.
Before long, the blue sword was deeply embedded in my shoulder.
‘Write! Sick.’
It was an act I was aiming for, but it still hurt badly.
However, with this, Blue’s sword was sealed with her shoulder scabbard, so she was completely defenseless.
This situation is my goal.
“It is over.”
The embarrassment caused her body to stutter, but soon she regained her senses and Parangi tried to pull her sword off her shoulder.
However, there was no means to defend my sword, which I was swinging at the same time as being stabbed.
The only way to avoid my sword, which is already swinging in a trajectory, is to let go of the sword.
Rather than letting go of the sword, I tried to pull it out, so my greatsword quickly reached Parang’s neck very easily.
“Life is a real battle, kid!!”
Puhelhel. Easy, easy.
Anyway, with my regenerative ability, my shoulder will all heal within today.
There are times when the regenerative ability deteriorates a little, but this much is healed in about a day.
Wouldn’t it all be better when we eat supper?
This is the real flesh and bone.
“Stop!”
The judge’s shout to announce the end of the match.
The blue-haired guy with his pupils shaking, only looking at my shoulder that had been pierced by his sword.
How about it, you can’t even open your mouth to my bold strategy?
Whoops. This is the strategy.
“It is your failure to fight without assuming the worst possible move.”
Got it, Ningen.
So, please, judge, let me tell you the winner.
Ah, but I understand the mental burst, but will you take the sword off my shoulder soon?
Why did you take it off
Siftal hurts so much.
“Victor! Exam number 144 Claire Anasta!”
What the heck
***
Mistress… You did something stupid.
I never dreamed that there would be a rule that says even getting a fatal blow is considered a defeat.
Unlike others, I have amazing regenerative powers, so I just gave up my protest because the judge’s eyes were fierce when he tried to argue that it wasn’t a fatal wound.
It’s absolutely not because the process is cumbersome! Greatness.
They even said that the rule was repeated several times when I was messing around with Lily.
Haha. This is my fault
‘Anyway, what about this?’
Lily’s mouth is smiling, but for some reason her eyes aren’t smiling at all.
Anyone can see that he is very angry! This.
“That… I’m sorry?”
Then Lily, who was looking at me with mysterious eyes, sighed once, took my right hand, which was not injured, and started dragging her somewhere.
Lily Lily, I’m sorry for the poor owner.
So won’t you have her mercy?
