Excluding the 0.5 mana that has risen at one time, the stat that has risen for 10 days is 1.3. Considering that his stats were already out of the early range, it was a ridiculous number to raise by swinging his sword alone.

‘Because the talent is 11.’

Here, even if you don’t wear the King of Knight’s surcoat that belongs to me, if you are within a 5m radius, all stats will increase by 1. So when I was training my body, I had to keep it a little farther away.

I heard from my master that swordsmanship is at the lower level of Sword Expert, so if you gather magic, you should be able to reach Expert in no time.

‘First of all, I have to go back to that man’s shop in Vulkan.’

Growth Artifacts grow faster as the bond with the owner deepens, so it was important to obtain them as early as possible if you were going to use them.

Since I have reached the level of a beginner I promised, I was thinking of getting a weapon before I started training in earnest.

‘If possible, get a kendo repair.’

I had to repair it because the blade was badly damaged while sparring with my master.

Because I need a total of 6 swords in order to use sword swordsmanship to the limit in the future. Even if you receive a growth artifact, you still need this sword.

I threw away one of the new clothes, but I left the house wearing one of the other three because a total of four sets were sadunteo to rotate the rotation.

After 10 hours of learning how to practice, it was the next day, but Vulkan would still be working in the studio in the morning, so there was no problem even now.

‘Because the studio is a nobleman’s home in the first place.’

He eats, sleeps, creates and repeats.

The only thing she enjoys in her free time is watching dramas, but later I thought I should ask Sun or Seoyoon to teach her something fun.

‘But I’m sure the girls know dramas well.’

I don’t know much because I only play games.

After leaving the house, I went to the station and luckily got on the subway that came directly to Hwagok Station. Now that I had memorized all the directions, I arrived at the steel workshop right away and entered the workshop.

Jjallang-

The bell sounds familiar now. Inside was Vulcan, which was just starting to burn.

“I’m here.”

“You came earlier than expected.”

Actually, I could have come sooner, but I came late because I was learning swordsmanship. Still, as the grace period was one month, it came very quickly that it came in 10 days.

“Wouldn’t it be rewarding for a craftsman to give it to someone who can use the sword better? Beginners should reach it sooner or later.”

“That’s also the case… Ki-do seems to be a completely different person than he was 10 days ago. He seems to have a lot of damage to his sword as if he fought something.”

I hadn’t even taken it out of the scabbard yet, but I noticed that the sword was damaged. It seems that the modifier of the best artisan is attached to the artifact for no reason.

“Would you like to take a look? How much has changed from 10 days ago.”

“Yes. First of all, this place is narrow, so go inside.”

Surely, if you swing a sword here, the whole store will be ruined. I followed his back and moved to the back of the studio.

“This should be enough. Give it a try.”

The back of the workshop is much larger than the shop entrance. There I drew my sword. Seeing the condition of the sword, he sighed.

“It must have been soaked in blood for a long time. Did you go to a dungeon?”

Vulcan can roughly infer what happened just by looking at the condition of the sword.

“That’s right. I happened to find a dungeon while hunting monsters, so I stayed inside for a few days.”

I didn’t have anything to hide, so I just told you.

“Still, it’s not to the extent that it’s unusable, but it’ll probably just need to be trimmed. First of all, show off your swordsmanship skills that you used to be so confident about.”

“Yes.”

The me from 10 days ago and the me now are different people. To show the man’s surprise, he started swinging his sword with all his nerves focused.

From a horizontal slash with 1 meal to a stab with 4 meals. Perhaps it was a more modest movement than the swordsmanship I showed here 10 days ago. However, its power was vastly different from then.

I no longer let go of my power, and I was able to pack more into a single swing than before. The same sword is wielded by the same person, but the result is quite different from before.

After the demonstration, I romantically held the sword in reverse and put it in the scabbard.

“Uh… How…?”

‘It’s… It’s this.’

Yes. This reaction was necessary.

Master was not a class with a particularly good reaction, and in this world, except for me, the only people with a good understanding of swordsmanship were Vulkan and one Kamp.

I am not familiar with Kampf at the moment, so this man was the only one who could show me my swordsmanship properly, but the reaction came out the way I thought and it was very delicious.

“I’ve been learning some swordsmanship in dungeons.”

He made a puzzled expression.

“No… No matter how many people taught you swordsmanship, wouldn’t it make sense to wield a sword at the level of a sword expert in 10 days?”

To be honest, it makes no sense. It takes 10 years for a person with ordinary talent to acquire swordsmanship at the level of an expert entry level.

I heard that it took three years for those called geniuses, and one month for even the king of knights, who were called geniuses, to develop expert swordsmanship skills.

‘Perhaps the talent of the king of knights was 10, 10, 10?’

Because he has the greatest talent a human can have, he must have been able to commit such an eccentricity. However, I have a talent that no one can approach when it comes to using my body.

“I must be a great genius. Of course, there are some peculiar things about my body.”

Talent played a huge role in the tremendous growth in a short period of time, but growing to this extent in 10 days simply with talent alone would have been impossible if I had trained normally.

I rolled up my arms to show the scars on my arms.

“The body’s resilience is very good, so they didn’t care about getting hurt and sparred in a real way. There were four times when I thought I was really close to death?”

Unexpectedly, when Master found out that my body’s resilience was abnormal, the intensity of training gradually increased and he was pushing me to the brink of death before I knew it.

Originally, even though I trained with the Huron training method, the scars weren’t this severe, but new scars were added on top of the scars.

“I don’t know who he is, but he’s a teacher I like. Training should have that kind of taste.”

‘This is not his business…’

Anyway, my swordsmanship skills were forcibly developed by crossing the line.

“Am I worthy to wield your sword?”

Actually, they said it would be acceptable even if only beginners were filmed, but I heard that Vulcan during the Pangenia days was a little more strict. He said he only sold his weapons to those who were qualified enough to use them.

There are no knights on Earth, and it’s hard to make a living if you sell them like that, so it’s a situation where a certain amount of weapons of a certain level are provided to the government every month.

I wondered if I would be the person who would get a passing grade from Vulcan back then. Seeing me like that, he smiled and opened his mouth.

“Yes. You are well qualified to use my sword.”

I was recognized as a knight worthy of using his sword, not relying on his spirit to receive the sword. I feel very proud of something.

While I was feeling that way, Vulkan took out the box containing the Growth Artifact from the shelf.

“It’s yours now. Open it.”

Inside the box was a plain sword that boasted a perfect balance. I really liked that simple form that was faithful to the function of a sword.

Because it felt like a custom sword for my swordsmanship.

“If you drop blood on the pommel and name the sword, the engraving process will begin. Have you decided on a name for the sword?”

“Yes.”

While going to the workshop, I kept thinking about the name of the sword. Because the sword will be with me for the rest of my life, I needed to properly name it.

‘At first, I thought about using Eden.’

I thought the name of the teacher who taught me a lot was fine, but what if the ego nested in this sword is female? Thinking that it was a woman with Master’s name was something.

Then I thought of Master’s name, Eden, so I wondered what it would be like to pronounce the name Eden in a different way.

It is also a gender-neutral name, and as it generally means paradise, it also meant to wish Master that he had gone to a good place.

I lightly cut my fingertips with my sword, enough to bleed, and dripped the blood onto the pommel.

“From today your name is Eden.”

The moment I named the sword like that, the sword began to shine blindingly.
