The Only Swordsman of the Magic Academy

chapter 19



19 – Swordsman Newbie

*

“Huh..?”

Seoyun was surprised to hear her mother’s voice. I, too, would be very surprised if suddenly a girl who looked like her friend called her mother.

“Dad. I found my mother.”

‘That’s not it. You bastard.’

Eden tries to shift the responsibility of her lack of pleasure to Seoyoon. She was too harsh for a still fresh high school girl.

“Could it be that Hajun is your daughter..?”

She is now beyond professional self-harm, she was trying to create an image of a single man with a little older daughter at the age of 17.

“No. Not that…”

“Isn’t it..?”

She was trying to explain what had happened, but when Eden looked up at me sullenly from the side, Seoyoon made an expression as if she were looking at her trash.

‘That’s not it.’

She was ashamed of her daughter’s presence, and she was feeling that she was telling her not to call her daddy.

“This is my growing artifact, and now it’s transformed into a humanoid. It was born with my blood, so I call it daddy.”

“Honestly, it makes no sense to have a daughter like this at my age…”

Her judgment was clouded when Eden suddenly started f*cking her mother in her wire, but she seemed puzzled after hearing my explanation.

If I wanted to have a daughter like me, she would have to be at least 10 years old.

“Mom… Can’t you do it?”

I can’t believe it’s 10 hours since I was born when I see that they appeal to their emotions now.

When I made Ego as a character in the game, it didn’t show such a distinctive appearance.

Is it because my blood is special? Or is it because of the inclination? The first thing I had my child do was to watch cartoons and play games, so he might have learned common sense that way.

“Okay! I’ll do it for you.”

‘Do you really do this?’

I heard that there is no tree that cannot be felled after taking 10 shots, but I did not expect this to happen.

“Are you okay?”

She nods her head.

“Yes. If the child is lonely, will he look for a mother like this? I will act as a mother even when we are together like this.”

‘She was less than 10 hours after he was born.’

The activity time was too short to feel the loneliness.

Still, she seemed to like Eden too, and Seoyoon didn’t seem to be in a bad mood, so she didn’t bother setting the candle.

Seoyoon bent her knees and hugged her Eden.

“But he’s really cute. What’s his name?”

“Eden.”

“I heard that she was born with Ha Jun’s blood, so she resembles Ha Jun a lot.”

‘Isn’t this a bit double-interpreted?’

Eden is cute. She resembles Eden is Ha Jun.

This felt like it was not much different from saying Ha Junie was cute.

‘Is it because I’ve never been in a relationship?’

You keep giving meaning to what you say without much thought.

“Does the growth artifact grow more here later?”

“Uh. I think he’ll grow up to about 20 years old.”

“Really? Then maybe it’s only now that we can see this.”

She gnaws at her cheeks like Eden’s glutinous rice cakes.

“The growth rate of growth-type artifacts doesn’t rise very well, so I’ll probably be able to see them in this state for a few months. For now, I think I’ve introduced Eden enough, so shall we move on to training?”

“Yes!”

Originally, it was supposed to be done right away, but Eden’s sudden action dragged on for about 15 minutes.

Well, if you continue to meet me, the day will eventually come when you will be able to explain Eden, so doing it now is not necessarily a waste of time.

“Eden. You too come back with a sword.”

“Okay.”

Eden returned to my hand in the form of a sword. And I handed the iron sword I had placed on the table to Seoyoon.

“This will be heavy at first, but you’d better get used to the weight than with a lightweight magic sword. It’s hard to get the power you need with a light sword.”

I don’t know if it’s a sword that specializes in stabbing like a rapier, but since I’m not just teaching stabbing, I needed her to get used to the weight of the sword.

“And as long as you don’t apply light weight magic to the sword, you can fill it with other offensive magic, so if you can just adapt to the weight, it will be of much help in battle.”

Think of putting cutting power enhancement or penetrating magic in place of lightening magic. When you collide with a weapon with light weight magic, you can win unconditionally.

“Okay. I’ll try to get used to it.”

Her strength talent is 7. It might feel heavy right now, but if you exercise for 3 hours every day, you’ll probably have enough strength to feel that sword light before the end of the week.

‘Actually, there is a more convenient way…’

If you enter into a relationship with the King of Knights, the last option of the King of Knights’ surcoat, 君臣有義 (君臣有義), she will share 10% of my strength, 0.31, And she will be able to easily lift the black sword.

All other stats are bound to be helpful, especially with a mentality of 5.3, Which will accelerate her growth.

“Yunah Seo.”

“Huh?”

“Would you like to sign a contract with me?”

“Contract?”

Usually, this kind of ability can only be triggered by telling the opponent all about the penalty and advantage.

He explained everything about what kind of ability God of Warfare is and what kind of effects it would have if you were to bind it.

“So… If you use this ability, you can never betray each other until the other wants to break the contract, and you can share each other’s physical abilities and magical powers, right?”

“Uh. You’re right.”

Even though it was low for a wizard, he had definitely higher intellect than ordinary people, so he was good at memorizing and understanding.

“Then let’s make a contract right away. I don’t think there’s any reason not to say that we’ll become more trustworthy and stronger.”

As a daughter of a wealthy family, she seems to be quick in calculating profit and loss. I don’t think there’s any reason to reject this offer. But she’s a long way to go when it comes to profit and loss.

‘Don’t you believe in me too much?’

The absolute time we met was very short, but I wondered if it was too easy to trust others. Didn’t I even wield a knife from the first meeting?

Still, the person who puts her trust in me didn’t bother to doubt her because I was determined to trust her too.

“Okay. Would you like a hand then?”

She gently places her hand on her palm. I covered her hand with my other hand and opened her mouth.

“Do you agree to have a relationship with Choi Ha-joon?”

“…Yes.”

Seoyun blushes slightly and answers with her head bowed. Even though he doesn’t have much deterrence, he seems ashamed to be my subject.

[I have a relationship with Han Seo-yoon.]

[You cannot betray each other until you want to end the relationship.]

[Share Han Seo-yoon’s stats by 5%.]

It was as if I didn’t receive strength, senses, or stamina, but I felt quite a bit of intelligence and magic, which were originally low.

Judging by the increase in her magic power by about 0.2, It seemed that her current magic power was over 4.0. Her sanity has also risen by more than 0.2, And she is feeling it, albeit a little.

Aside from that, it had the effect of feeling like she and I became very close. Do you feel like you are connected to each other?

I feel like I can confidently say ‘this person is mine’ in front of others.

“Seo Yoon-ah. Do you feel close to me too?”

“Ugh… Huh..?”

She looks surprised at my words. Maybe it’s because my body-related stats are on the high side, so I’m getting used to it, but it seems like I’m surprised when I suddenly talk to you.

“Doesn’t it just feel like we’re connected?”

“Yeah… I definitely feel that way.”

I don’t know because we haven’t been far apart yet, but it seemed like we would know right away when there was a problem with each other.

“If you feel bad, I’ll let you go right away.”

I didn’t know if it had this kind of effect, so I thought about letting her go if she didn’t like it.

“No! I’m fine. It’s a strange sensation, but I feel much lighter and it doesn’t feel too bad.”

I’m glad you said it wasn’t bad.

“Then it’s good. How about the sword now? Do you like it?”

“Yes. It was a bit heavy before, but I think I can swing it now without any problem.”

As expected, it must have been the correct answer. Having shared my strength and sensory stats, she was holding a more plausible stance than before.

“Then I’ll show you how to do it first, and then I’ll look at your posture. Ah! By the way, you may need to touch your body a little while holding it. Is that okay?”

I also learned from Master in such a way that my whole body could be touched, so I thought my teaching would go that way too, but I didn’t think of this.

Of course, if you continue to explain with your mouth without touching it, it will be possible someday, but it is several times faster to tell you where to put strength and how to hold your posture while touching your body.

“It’s okay. You’re just trying to teach me, right? I don’t think that’s strange.”

What is the strange idea? I thought that I should teach her more diligently, thinking of her who believes in me even though she wants to.

“Okay. I’ll start.”

First of all, horizontal cutting. Rather than showing all the movements now, I was thinking of letting them learn one slowly.

Since her sensory stat is still on the low side and she doesn’t have super senses, you won’t be able to figure out all the movements of her joints or muscles just by looking at her once.

It was a very helpful act for me to show the swordsmanship slowly as much as possible until I got used to it, distinguishing the movements.

I was feeling where I could improve more by slowing down my swordsmanship, which I used to do quickly.

Her first thing is to teach her, so after showing her about 20 cross cuts, I talked to her.

“Would you like to repeat what I showed you?”

“Okay.”

After watching her 20 horizontal cut demonstrations, her first cross cut she showed me… Was a mess.

‘I never thought I’d do well from the beginning.’

I also made mistakes in swordsmanship at first, but if she could steal and learn from what she had seen a few times, Seoyoon would have been the successor to the King of Knights, not me.

“How are you…? Are you okay?”

“It wasn’t bad for the first time. Do you want to try it again? I’ll look at it and tell you where to fix it.”

My hands were wriggling with excitement at the thought of educating newbies in swordsmanship.
