Chapter 368
Basically, people don’t change that easily.
If he changed so easily, why would Giselle suffer so much in the Tower of the White Tiger?
The students of the White Tiger Tower, no matter how beaten up they were and locked up in the punishment cell, would prefer the fun of the outdoors over their studies. Even the beasts will listen better than that.
“Moradi. what do you think about it?”
“…but it sounds like you’re serious.”
Unlike the very suspicious two, the Knights of the Beech Tree were really sincere.
Although Lee Han did not feel it, the fear felt by the knights who directly faced the wrath of the Duke of Ikaldoren was on a different level.
The fear that I could really die here.
Such fear had the power to make one look back on one’s actions and repent.
The knights who barely escaped from the crisis were genuinely ashamed of what they had done.
“Well… it wasn’t a big deal. I’m glad everyone is okay.”
Since he couldn’t understand the other person’s intentions, Lee Han gave an appropriate answer.
After matching the rhythm, I was thinking of widening the distance.
“Are you okay with that knight who got hit and flew… no, fell a bit further back?”
“I’ve broken some bones, but I’m fine.”
‘I don’t think it’s okay.’
Lee Han sneaked up behind Giselle. It was to prepare for an emergency.
“It was a really great magic. I knew that Ein Rogard students had excellent skills, but…”
“No…”
“That’s…”
Lee Han and Giselle both tried to deny it at the same time.
Not only did he cast all of the strengthening magics before the duel started, but in the case of Yumidhus’ water octane, he dragged time to complete it before the duel started.
In fact, it was a foul that would not have been allowed if Lee Han hadn’t cheated, but to wrap it up with magic skills.
“There is a hidden backstory to it…”
“Be humble.”
“Originally, the fact that magic takes so long is not acknowledged that you have learned it properly…”
“You are truly humble.”
“……”
Even if you say that the knights do not know magic, there was a limit.
Lee Han tapped Giselle on the shoulder. I meant to say it instead. Giselle, of course, ignored it.
‘for a moment. Back when?’
Realizing that Lee Han had moved backwards, Giselle turned her head and frowned.
This bastard…
“I want to repay you.”
“What return?”
“I will teach you swordsmanship!”
“……”
“……”
Lee Han and Giselle looked at the knights in bewilderment.
* * *
It was more often than expected that knights teach swords to nobles.
There were quite a few nobles who learned swordsmanship for culture, hobbies, or light self-defense, and it was only the knights who could teach them.
No matter how talented they were, there weren’t many nobles to learn from adventurers and mercenaries whose status was unclear.
It was a good opportunity for nobles to learn swordsmanship and for knights to make friends with nobles… but
Lee Han’s case was a little different.
Isn’t it a case of severely learning proper swordsmanship beyond culture or self-defense?
Having one of the best skills in Einrogard’s swordsmanship lectures meant that he was not inferior even when compared to apprentice knights of the same age throughout the empire.
If you want to develop swordsmanship to this level, you shouldn’t teach it lightly, thinking about culture or self-defense.
I had to make him break through the wall himself by digging deep and determined…
‘No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think I said it with that much determination.’
Lee Han’s thoughts were the same as Giselle’s.
No matter how you look at it, it felt close to trying to teach lightly.
The situation would be embarrassing for both of them to find out about Lee Han’s skills after mixing swords for no reason.
Lee Han decided to trust his friend and leave it to him.
“Please refuse me. Moradi.”
“What a crazy thing to say… what to say no to!”
“What if I say that I’m weak to learn swordsmanship because I’m sick?”
“……”
Giselle looked Lee Han up and down like a madman.
Calling this sickly, Giselle might be rumored to be blind with her eyes open.
“You usually create lies like breathing… Any other lies?”
“You can’t think of something like that right away. You have a better relationship with the knight family than I do, so please refuse instead.”
“Are you talking about that now?”
It was quite a burden to reject the proposals of the knights who were speaking so earnestly right now.
Lee Han is not a knight’s family, but Gisele’s is not a knight’s family. He might hold a grudge right away, saying, ‘The bloodline of the Moradi family prevented me from repaying the favor…!’
“…We must have made another rude request. Stop trying to repay the favor somehow…”
The knights suddenly became depressed after seeing Lee Han and Giselle whispering.
“Well, you don’t want to learn swordsmanship from knights like us. understand.”
“Oh no. That’s… It’s good to learn swordsmanship. I want to learn.”
“Is that true!?”
“okay.” Searᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Lee Han gave up.
It seemed that it would be better for the knights of the Beech Tree Order to feel embarrassed than for Lee Han to become a bad guy.
“Well done. Then I…”
“Moradi will also learn.”
“……”
* * *
As expected, less than 30 minutes later, the knights became embarrassed.
“Kuhm.”
“Hmm.”
“Your swordsmanship…is excellent.”
Lee Han silently nodded.
Lee Han did his best.
It was almost self-inflicted for the knights of the Beech Knights to feel embarrassed.
“I wonder if there’s a way to infuse magic into the sword…”
“I haven’t completed the cycle, but I know how to infuse it.”
“……”
The knights became even more embarrassed and exchanged glances.
They were looking at each other saying ‘what should I teach now’.
-Isn’t there nothing to teach? what to teach
-If you want to go further, it’s impossible to teach today…
-Any other sword techniques?
-Having already mastered one swordsmanship in his hand and digging into it, what is the meaning of teaching another swordsmanship…
-Wasn’t he a wizard rather than that? Why did you go so far with swordsmanship…?
The knights were feeling the same emotions the White Tiger Tower students felt.
…Why did you seriously practice swordsmanship like that?!
No matter how you think about it, it was not a hobby that a wizard born into a noble family would do.
While the knights silently exchanged glances, Lee Han waited, managing his expression.
It was awkward with each other, but in the end, when there is nothing more to say, the other person will be embarrassed and let go.
Then, if Lee Han goes out saying ‘I had fun today’…
“I can’t help it. I have no choice but to teach you one of my secret tricks.”
“Biggie?!”
There are numerous swordsmanships in the empire, and among the famous swordsmanships, quite a lot of techniques were known.
The Byeokam sword that Lee Han learned right away, such as < Rock Slash >, were quite famous enough to be known to those who had properly learned swordsmanship.
As swordsmanship becomes more famous, swordsmen who learned swordsmanship also become famous, so rumors naturally spread about the techniques used by those swordsmen.
However, prosecutors did not disclose all their techniques.
Exposing all of his skills is like telling him to attack his swordsman’s weaknesses.
Experienced prosecutors tried to avoid showing some skills unless absolutely necessary.
Those skills were secret.
‘Can I learn it right away just because I’m teaching it now?’
It was surprising that they said they would teach secret techniques, but it was also questionable whether Lee Han could learn them.
Even in the case of Allarron, who immediately taught Lee Han swordsmanship, he did not bother to teach secret techniques or difficult skills until Lee Han was fully proficient in the Byeogam sword.
It was Allarron’s belief that a swordsman who was faithful to basic food was much stronger than using difficult and complex techniques that he could not handle well.
“I wonder if I can learn because of my lack of skills. Are you really okay?”
“Enough. If it’s that genius talent, it must be…”
“…I don’t think it’s to that extent.”
I knew the other person was grateful, but it was almost unbearable to praise him so much for every word.
The knight took Lee Han to the courtyard.
It was a skill that was not shown to other knights. I couldn’t teach it in a place where everyone could see it.
The cautious attitude of the knight gradually sparked Lee Han’s interest.
Even if the Beech Knights aren’t renowned for their military strength, aren’t they knights in their own right?
It’s a skill that such an article values so much.
‘what?’
Lee Han felt his anticipation rise in an instant.
Whether it’s a skill that helps with mana circulation, or a skill that helps infuse mana into a sword, or condenses mana…
“Look carefully.”
Hiss!
The knight drew his sword and stabbed it quickly. It was an ordinary stab, nothing special.
But at that moment, the tip of the sword lengthened.
Lee Han exclaimed in surprise.
“Did you make the blade with an aura!?”
When it goes beyond the stage of infusing and stably circulating mana into the sword and condensing it, the mana contained in the sword becomes a bloody weapon in itself rather than a mere aid.
Just as the magical power woven by the will of a wizard becomes a miracle called magic, the magical power woven by a swordsman’s will becomes an invincible spear called an aura.
But to go beyond that level of aura and camouflage it like a blade.
From the standpoint of the prosecutor he was dealing with, it was a surprise.
An aura that penetrates quite a few armor like cutting butter changes its appearance like that.
Even if it doesn’t seem like a big deal, that was a great skill.
Unlike when there was only an aura, if the appearance was indistinguishable from the sword, the opponent could not be caught off guard.
When dealing with a sword that gradually increases and decreases, I had to worry about not only the sense of distance, but also whether or not I was using an aura. It was fatal in a fight between equal masters.
‘what? Was it really a great swordsman?’
“Oh, no.”
“…is not it?”
“exactly.”
The knight cleared his throat as if he was a little embarrassed by Lee Han’s fuss, then stabbed the tip of his sword into the wall.
Then, surprisingly, nothing happened. Aura would have lightly punched a hole in the wall.
“…is it an illusion?”
Lee Han, a wizard, now realized the identity of the blade at the tip of the sword.
It wasn’t an aura, it was just an illusion.
A very limited illusion realized through swordsmanship, not magic.
In terms of magic, it was insignificant magic, but swordsmanship was a different story.
Because I almost fell for Lee Han right away.
“exactly. Of course, compared to something like an aura, it may seem a bit shabby. But this is quite useful…”
The article started with an excuse for being nervous.
Wouldn’t you want to write an aura just because of that?
But there are things in the world that you can’t do even if you want to.
Rather than just giving up, even a skill that’s more like a trick like this…
“This is a really good technique!”
“…Do you think so?”
Lee Han’s reaction brightened the knight’s face a little.
The response was much more enthusiastic than expected.
* * *
“Thank you very much. You teach me this.”
“I thought it was such an insignificant technology, but it would be embarrassing to say this…”
“No. It’s a really good technique. Thank you.”
Lee Han said with sincerity.
Isn’t it a skill that is not difficult to learn and can be used to confuse opponents?
It was a technique that suited Lee Han’s taste.
I think I’ll be satisfied. Lee Han said something that the other person would like.
“I knew the knights of the Beech Knights were great, but I didn’t expect them to be this good. Really great.”
“……”
The knights who were watching from the side looked at their colleagues with slightly jealous eyes.
It was getting more compliments than I expected.
After returning to the Knights, I couldn’t stay still thinking that I would be praised by others for that anecdote.
“Wait a minute…”
“?”
“There is one thing in Biggi that might interest you.”
“…Originally, isn’t it okay for Biggie to tell others like this?”
