How to Live As a Returnee Munchkin Swordsman

26 – Fifth Necessity (3)

Meanwhile.

In the fierce battle on the battlefield, there were women who tried to reconcile.

When the sediment accumulated, it is said that it will be solved after fighting coolly once, but this father and daughter were in the relationship of resolving quarrels through real ‘fighting’.

“How many did you catch, Akina. This father is the fifth.”

“I have six.”

“Don’t lie. I must have confirmed with my own eyes that it was the fourth.”

“If you don’t believe me, why are you asking?”

The Crowlin family is the kingdom’s greatest swordsman.

These are beings who do not refuse an approaching fight and rush head-on into any danger they encounter.

Thanks to this, even though I am in a position where I do not have to step forward as the general manager and collaborators… The two father and daughter took the lead and led the knights with their swords drawn.

To the example of the highest commanders.

And the sight of him defeating monsters with his brilliant swordsmanship…

It was natural that the morale of the members who participated in the battle soared to the sky.

Duke Crowlin leisurely swung his sword and gave a small exclamation.

“That sharp sword is still the same.”

“What are you trying to say again?”

“ha ha ha. It’s real this time. Seeing my daughter fighting for the first time in a long time makes me feel like the star of the kingdom has returned. After all, Akina, you are suited to the battlefield.”

“I like my job now.”

“okay. “I have no intention of forcing you.”

The conversation about Akina’s career path had already ended.

At one time, Duke Crowlin was extremely opposed to being an instructor, but now he actively respected his daughter’s wishes.

No matter how many petty quarrels there may be, in the end, Duke Crowlin is also a father.

I couldn’t break my daughter’s stubborn will.

Kaan-!

Kagang, kang-!!

Off!!

Even after the conversation between the father and daughter, the battle continued.

Under the ＜Crowfly Swordsmanship＞, which is said to be the best swordsmanship in the kingdom, the Hellhounds who filled the surroundings collapsed helplessly.

And that’s not all.

The fierce battle of the senior knights who participated in the battle and the assistance of the staff of the Mage Tower in the rear-.

Although it was embarrassing to see high-ranking monsters from the start, the Royal Knights of Clepe defeated the enemies more easily than expected.

The battle was going very one-sided.

“however… Somehow, there is one swordsman who fights better than us.”

but.

The most outstanding hero among them.

A swordsman holding a sword that glows blue and slashing down hellhounds without hesitation.

When Duke Crowfly glanced at the man, Akina nodded as well.

“The ability that was shown at the beginning, as well as the special swordsmanship now… It’s a very aggressive fight. It’s also the first time I’ve seen Instructor Edgar fight monsters.”

I’ve seen Edgar Mullik’s ＜Balut Sword＞ a few times.

In the course that will be opened as a new lecture this semester, during the course of the lecture demonstration, Akina also personally inspected the sword method.

At that time, I thought it was a fairly revolutionary swordsmanship, and it was evaluated as a martial art that could be used in real combat.

However, the swordsmanship that Edgar is now using is a step forward and has become much more diverse and aggressive.

‘really… ‘I’m a junior with nothing to teach you.’

In fact, creating sword techniques can be done by any swordsman hero who has reached a certain level.

No matter how new the sword technique is, it is ultimately about transforming existing herbivores and combining them effectively.

However, creating a sword technique that was effective in actual combat was not an easy task.

This is not simply about whether the level of the crossroads is high or low.

This was only possible if there was clearly specialized talent in this area.

In that respect, it is safe to say that Edgar Mullik was already a finished hero as an instructor in the Swords Department.

“well. In the eyes of this father, that swordsmanship is rather a defensive swordsmanship.”

At Duke Crowfly’s objection, Akina tilted her head.

“That one?”

“hmm. There are a lot of evasion moves between herbivores, and the connection of attacks is very smooth. In a word, it is an attack with a reversed purpose. What can I say- yes. It must be seen that attack was used as a means to survive. It’s like… .”

“… War?”

“Accurate. It’s a swordsmanship that seems to have been born in war. hahahaha. How did Sir Edgar, who had never experienced war, come up with such a sword technique?”

The battle that Edgar Mulick showed today was definitely amazing.

First, that special ‘tidal wave’ shown at the beginning of the battle.

The second is the ‘sword method’ that massacred the enemies based on the collapse of the formation.

Lastly, Edgar’s realization as a ＜Prosecutor＞ hero who has completely embodied all of this -.

I kept thinking that the public rumor that the fourth fork in the road had blossomed wasn’t completely absurd.

‘No, maybe… .’

perhaps.

Really, maybe, isn’t it different from the fourth?

It’s a word that can never be rushed out, but all the heroes who watched his battle couldn’t help but have such a question.

The same was true of Theodore Crowfly, the ‘Sword of the Kingdom’.

“No matter how you think about it, you’re a talent to bring to the Knights.”

“That will never happen.”

Even so, the fact that he belonged to the Tristan Swordsmanship Faculty did not change.

Akina was as resolute as a sword when it came to her junior’s skirmishes.

* * *

“The battle is over! The number of victims suffered 1 serious injury and 7 minor injuries! There are no fatalities!!”

The fierce battle was over.

In fact, it was a battle in which the Knights and their collaborators unilaterally hunted monsters, but the battle, which was never easy when viewed objectively, ended well.

The number of deaths within the Knights is 0.

Enemy monsters are annihilated.

No matter how much the subjects were the Royal Knights of Clepe, it was an overwhelming level of complete victory.

‘I’ve acquired quite useful abilities.’

I nodded in satisfaction.

The combination of ＜tsunami on the sword＞ contained in the galleyd and ＜bellum swordsmanship＞, the main swordsmanship, was surprisingly effective.

The opponent is restricted from moving and interrupting the battle, and this side continues to attack specialized for many-on-one battles… Naturally, the effectiveness of the attack had to rise.

Thanks to that, the number of Hellhounds I cut down was exactly 12.

It was the highest achievement among the participants in the battle.

‘If I manage the time well, I’ll be able to use it often against monsters.’

＜Tsunami on the Sword＞ was not a coincidence that I could write whenever I wanted.

The treasured sword ＜Gallid＞ also needs a warm-up period to prepare to use this special power.

This ability can be used up to four times per day.

Therefore, it seemed necessary to coordinate the time between battles well.

‘If there’s a good sword in the future, I’ll have to get it.’

Coincidence contained in a treasured sword requires a warm-up period, but ＜Sword of Resonance＞ inevitability does not have time to prepare.

That is, if there are only several swords available.

You can take turns using your abilities.

Until now, I had no particular desire for a famous sword, but I think it would be okay to keep one at a time now.

Well, even so, the important thing in the end is the ‘swordsmanship’ itself.

“Instructor Edgar.”

“Ah, senior.”

After the battle, a familiar face came.

Unlike usual, she was looking at me with a rare smile.

“Everyone is looking at Instructor Edgar in surprise. It’s a really great swordsmanship. As a swordsman, I did well.”

From noble mtl dot com

“thank you.”

You don’t have to be humble.

The pure admiration he gave as a soldier was only accepted as a positive greeting.

“Still, you seem to be the type to keep what you say?”

“At times like this, when else will you raise the status of the instructors?”

“Put- Instructor Edgar is a really interesting person.”

Actually, there are some things I was a little worried about.

Externally, I am a hero who has just graduated from the Faculty of Magic and has just attained the fate of being a ＜swordsman＞.

A hero like that showed an overwhelming battle by hunting 12 high-level monster hellhounds alone, so is this really the level of a new instructor? because you will think

Surprisingly, however, the people around him only showed great admiration rather than doubt.

The reason was simple.

‘… Because he’s a hero.’

After a hero appeared on the continent, too many things happened that couldn’t be explained by common sense.

Among them, there were geniuses who grew incredibly quickly, and there were also people who were born with multiple destinies at the same time and showed multiple abilities.

Therefore, you may have doubts until you see it with your own eyes, but after seeing it, it is only an object of awe.

“Maybe future investigations will be a little easier.”

“Is that so?”

“yes. Monster lairs usually have such strong monsters in the early stages, but they are often spacious in the mid to late stages.”

It was as she said.

When the Royal Knights of Clepe, which had completed some maintenance, began to move again, the investigation was able to continue in a process that was much easier than expected.

The route was simple as we followed the area where demon energy was concentrated, and since it consisted of a forest area, the surrounding terrain was not particularly difficult.

Above all, not many monsters appear.

There were a few raids along the way, but the level wasn’t that high.

Only Keleil, which I had hunted before, or a mid-level monster of a similar level, came out.

The first high-level monster I encountered, Hellhound, was the strongest monster here.

Thanks to this, I was able to quickly reach the ‘source’ of the red bush area of the monster’s lair.

“We have arrived at the source! Put all forces on alert!”

The source is the central area where the monster’s den was created, and the place where the monster who plays the role of the head of the den is located.

You don’t know what kind of danger may be lurking, and you need to be careful because it’s getting stronger to the point of demons.

Especially if it was the source of such a monster’s lair.

There may be ‘monsters’ that far exceed the level of monsters.

This was the reason why the Klepe Knights attacked this place more carefully.

“Captain! There are traces on this side!”

In the meantime, one of the knights who was investigating the source raised his hand.

Duke Crowfly immediately moved, and Akina and I followed suit.

In one area made like a big pit, there was a ‘trace’ as the member said.

“Um… .”

“This… .”

Somehow, the skins were torn and scattered.

Nearby, scattered weapons, shields, armor, etc… various weapons.

And above all.

In that area, demonic energy that was too strong even considering it was the source was bursting out.

This is obviously-.

“It’s a trace of the witch beast, Captain.”

The traces of the witchcraft that everyone expected little by little.

However, there are only traces, and its appearance cannot be found anywhere within the source.

“The witch… Did you escape the monster’s lair?”

“What is that… .”

It was a completely new phenomenon that had never been discovered before.

and.

“Time to work, Edgar.”

“… … .”

At Tristan Hero Academy, the new semester has finally arrived.
