Time Stop Swordsman With Romantic Concept

The rank assignment test mainly looks at three factors.

Fighting power against monsters.

Pure destructive power that destroys buildings.

And combat power against humans.

It was a method of making a total score for these three things, and the highest number of people was ranked first, and a line was formed under it.

Yulia carefully opens the entrance to the room connector and enters.

Then, as the illusion wizards started building the virtual area, the screen was transmitted from the video playback device Zeke took out.

Yulia is standing in a space that looks like a clearing in the forest.

She stands alert and looks around.

She held the battle ax firmly in both her hands, as if she thought the enemy would come soon.

“Look carefully. The first test sees your skills against monsters. First of all, rank D.”

ㅡ A little kid….

Monsters that can be said to be an essential element of the fantasy genre that appear regularly everywhere.

Eight goblins came out and surrounded Yulia.

His armor was only wearing a leather skirt, but he was armed with a black-bladed dagger.

They seemed very excited about the idea of catching and cooking humans.

Yuseong admired his expression, which made him want to kill him because he was evil just by looking at him, including drooling.

‘That level of detailed emotional expression. After entering the game, it’s amazing.’

ㅡ Kiy!

Before long, the goblins attacked Yulia all at once.

By the time I thought the distance had gotten closer.

Booung!

She thought she was frozen, but she spun big once.

ㅡ Queek?

A small gust of wind blew up from the tremendous power, and all the goblins in eight directions collapsed with their backs torn apart.

Concise and moderate.

A slash that is confident in one’s skills and executed without hesitation.

It was a resoluteness that could not be thought of as the same person as the woman who showed such a timid personality in front of Yooseong.

“As expected, he is a black knight. He said he only trains normally, so it’s amazing. It would have been the same if there had been eighty instead of eight.”

Even the cadets who listened to Zeke’s one word evaluation share whispers with each other.

“There are no rumors for nothing. Really very strong.”

“Still, I don’t want to get close….”

“As expected.”

“Honestly creepy.”

“Why did you come to the academy?”

After that, Yulia slaughtered the C-rank, B-rank, A-rank, and even the two S-rank lycanthrope kings.

She seemed to be having a hard time at the end, as her armor was dented and her blood was shed, but she still managed to win.

“Very good. The following is a test of pure destructive power. It’s not complicated either. All you have to do is break down the wall by blocking the front one after another.”

Before I knew it, Yulia was standing in an empty hallway with all traces of her fight removed.

A stone wall rose in front of her.

“Whoop.”

Turning her ax again, Yulia catches her breath and swings it towards the wall.

Bang! There was a sound, and then the wall collapsed helplessly.

Behind the collapsed wall was another wall.

Yulia looked at that and seemed to realize that she stepped back a bit.

She then starts swinging her ax as she runs.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Dash without hesitation and move forward while exploding all the walls that are blocked.

It doesn’t matter if the debris lands on the body or not, it’s literally a Berserker.

The full body armor, which looks heavy just by looking at it, seems to show that it is not worn in form.

“Crazy.”

“Does that make sense?”

“How strong you are… ….”

Hearing the appalled admiration of the cadets, drill instructor Zeke grinned and said,

“Usually, you have to do that to become an S class. Don’t be intimidated even if it seems like a long way. Everyone has hidden talents, and you never know when those talents will explode.”

The second test lasts one minute.

Soon all the walls blocking Yulia’s way disappeared and the space turned into a stadium somewhere.

“The third and final test looks at interpersonal combat power. Just like the first, there are five stages. Based on the scores from the previous two tests, an opponent with an appropriate rank will appear. Cadet Yulia didn’t even need to evaluate it in detail, and S! The opponent…….”

A scion wearing a white military uniform and holding a sword appeared in front of Yulia, who was still in combat readiness.

The name of the man who has a good-natured impression but exudes a sharper spirit than anyone else is Lenhardt.

In Crossen, one of the countries that fought against the Empire, he was nicknamed the world’s best swordsman.

He was also one of the heroes who made a revolutionary contribution in the war against the invading demons 20 years ago.

There is an anecdote that even that Cruella could not deal with Renhardt 1:1, so he managed to catch him with a 3:1 pincer attack using the national power difference.

Cruella recommended surrender, but Lenhardt chose an honorable suicide along with a plea not to trample the people of Crossen.

He was truly a man worthy of being called a legend.

“Renhardt!?”

“I’m not at the level that a cadet can deal with…… ?”

“No matter how S-class it is… ….”

The cadets who were unfamiliar with the virtual realm started talking in surprise.

Zeke explained about Lenhardt.

“Certainly, this man is a strong man called Crossen’s swordsman. However, the illusion created here cannot be said to be an exact copy of the legendary swordsman. This is nothing more than a simple analysis and implementation.”

The so-called degraded version of the degraded version.

Creating a virtual realm is obviously a groundbreaking technology, but it still has many limitations in many ways.

The ability of the strong, who had grown only through actual combat, crossing the realm of life and death on the battlefield as if breathing, was an area that could not be realized with illusion magic.

“But…… It will be harsh for newbies who have never experienced a real fight.”

Bang!

Yulia and Lenhardt clashed as soon as Zeke’s words were gone.

“Laugh!”

A large two-edged ax and a thin sword clash, but Yulia seems to be barely holding on.

Yulia tries to shake it off first, but Renhard stabs her in the armpit area with the gap that was revealed at that time.

No matter how sturdy your armor is, there will always be room for your sword.

When the attack went into the seam, blood splattered helplessly.

“Sigh.”

Still, Yulia doesn’t fall down and straightens her posture.

Hwaaak….

Before long, something like a purple flame rose and blazed all over her body.

Yulia’s personality, ‘descent of evil spirits’.

During the duration, all stats increase and the curse of evil spirits debuff can be cast on the opponent.

Using that is proof that Yulia is doing her best.

She stepped forward with even more force.

How many clashes have there been?

“Ugh… Ugh… Ugh… ….”

Slow-!

Fully exhausted and gasping for breath, Yulia couldn’t react to Lenhardt’s sword and her throat was cut as she was.

At the same time, the figures of Yulia and Renhard disappeared as if they were scattered at the same time.

“Excellent, cadet Yulia! There will be results worthy of her skills. Now come out and go back to your seat!”

At Zeke’s direction, she got out of her room connector and went back to her seat with her head down.

Swoop….

She doesn’t forget to keep her distance from other cadets.

Yulia had a very different atmosphere from her battle days.

“Now, everyone must have fully grasped the structure of the test, right? From the next cadet, I will proceed more quickly. Even if I stay up all night, I’m going to evaluate all the cadets here.”

The cadets begin to mumble again at Zeke’s bomb-like remark.

“Everything?”

“150 People…… All today?”

“Didn’t it just take about 5 minutes?”

“But it was because of the black knight… ….”

“Is it possible to do it within today?”

“It must be all night.”

“Helios is really tough….”

Zeke couldn’t help but laugh heartily at the reaction of the very cute new chicks.

‘I get upset when people say things like ‘It’s only this hard. I still have hell training to go through without a break all week.’

Rolling new cadets is always new and exciting.

Zeke, who was looking forward to the days to come this time as well, shouted with heightened tension.

“Even if I stay up two nights, I will do it to the end! Don’t worry. Instructors who are currently being evaluated elsewhere will also proceed together without a break. Also, I don’t want you to complain about being late for the exam. The order is completely random. Luck is an undeniable skill!”

Having said that, Zeke’s eyes turned to the paper with the name to be called.

“Next is Johan Phone Dry!”

“Yes!”

A white-haired male cadet answered loudly and then walked away.

Johan Von Drymal… ….

Yooseong vaguely knew the name.

Although he is a regular NPC, he is quite skilled. I remember that he was assigned to the S class.

It’s not a playable character, so it’s not weak.

Only 7 out of 150 are assigned to the S class.

Except for Yulia, all of them are normal NPCs.

Playable characters have unlimited potential, but they are still weak in many ways.

Although there are exceptions such as Cruella.

‘Hey, this is more nerve-wracking than I thought.’

Yuseong felt his hands and feet getting cold as he watched Johan walk away from behind.

I knew the contents of the test, but it was because it was a little different from what I thought when I actually saw it.

‘Can I go to the S class by using time stop?’

Yuseong simulated the situation in his head based on the information he had just obtained.

If you take that test now…….
