I Became a Time-Stopper at the Academy

52 – Clava’s Training

Me, Luisa, Elianne, Benedetta, Delia, Caitlin, and Lando all accessed the subspace of the training ground.

To receive guidance from Clava, who works as an instructor from today.

“Awkward….”

Clava muttered as she tugged at her instructor’s uniform.

As a mercenary, it was not a light outfit he wore every day, but a serious style, so it was understandable.

Instructor’s and cadet’s uniforms seem to have paid more attention to design because of their external image rather than functionality.

She approached her and said.

“Let’s start training now, Ms. Clava.”

“But how can I teach? It’s my first time, so I don’t know.”

“Can’t we just talk about what we felt during one-on-one sparring?”

“Um…. Okay.”

What we want to learn from Clava is the basics.

She told her first hitter, Lando, to fight without skill.

To match his weapon, the two-handed sword, Klava also picked up a two-handed sword.

Of course, I don’t want to hurt you even by mistake, so use the [Blunt Sword].

It’s a poor weapon, but that’s why it’s good for basic training because it doesn’t get sucked in.

Lando and Clava stood facing each other.

He shouted loudly in the cool wind.

“Then let’s go first!”

Clava nodded her head, and he ran right up and swung her sword across.

His height was a bit low, as if he was aiming for his side, not his neck.

Sureuk—.

Clava raised her sword vertically to block Lando’s attack.

But it didn’t stop there.

She ran over his blade like her sword gliding.

“Ugh!”

In an instant, the tip of Clava’s sword headed for Lando’s neck.

Counter almost simultaneously with defense.

It was a skill that was difficult to practice even if you knew it in your head.

Clava withdrew her sword and said “Um….” She made a thoughtful sound.

“What should I say? Feeling too honest? I thought it would be nice to try it with the feeling of cheating the other person.”

“Oh yes, I see!”

Next was Luisa.

The weapon is the [Blunt Spear], A blunt-bladed spear similar to the [Blunt Sword].

Because he is a mid-ranking dealer, he distanced himself from Clava more than Lando.

Soon, Louisa took a big step forward with a shout of “Ha!”

At the same time, he stretched out his arms.

The tip of her spear was pointed right at Clava’s neck.

“Oh!”

Clava admired, twisting her body to her right to avoid it.

From my point of view, Louisa’s spear skills were very good.

Clava quickly reached out her left hand as if to grab Luisa’s spear.

Noticing it, Louisa pulled back his spear.

But that’s Clava’s fake.

Focusing on Luisa pulling her spear back, Cyclava thrust the spear of her right hand toward Luisa’s side of her neck.

“Ugh….”

I couldn’t dodge it, and Clava’s spear point came right in front of Luisa’s side neck.

Luisa raised his hands up, announcing his surrender.

Clava drew her spear and nodded her head.

“I don’t have anything to say. I guess I just need to keep building some experience.”

“Thank you.”

Luisa lowered her head slightly and returned to my side.

Next up is Benedetta.

The magic staff used what she usually wears, but made her wear a [Ring of Fire] On her wrist.

Of course, Clava is the same.

Since it’s a lieutenant, the distance between the two of them is about the same as Louisa.

Actually pure magic warfare is not that common, so I was looking forward to it.

“After….”

Benedetta took a deep breath and began to sing.

In a situation where Clava gave up the first attack unconditionally, she seemed to be trying to use strong magic from the beginning.

After about 50 seconds, Benedetta turned her staff towards the clava.

A whirlpool formed at the tip of the staff.

In time, the whirlpool was set on fire.

“Fire Storm!”

A storm of fire rushed towards Klava.

You won’t die from the effect of the [Ring of Immortality], But if you get hit properly, the pain won’t be a joke.

As for how Clava would evade it, she felt like if there was popcorn, she would want to eat it and watch it.

Clava threw her body sideways.

But still within the influence of [Fire Storm].

When I just wanted to avoid it,

“Air Boom!”

She placed a ball of air that exploded like a bomb in front of her.

Boom!

In an instant, both Clava’s body and Benedetta’s [Fire Storm] Were pushed away by the bursting air.

Clava did not stop there.

She made two [Air booms] Earlier.

I tossed the remaining one towards Benedetta.

Benedetta deployed her shield magic in front of the staff.

And then, like swinging a baseball bat, he swung his staff and sent the [Air Boom] Flying toward him to a different place.

“Air Boom! Air Boom!”

“Ugh… !”

Clava continuously threw [Air Boom] At Benedetta.

Benedetta seemed preoccupied with cutting them off.

Meanwhile, Clava was using his other hand to deploy his magic.

It was a double casting.

Apparently finishing the chant, Clava knelt down and put his palms on the ground.

The magic circle in his hand moved to the surface.

“Earth Spike!”

The dirt sprang up at Benedetta at great speed.

Clava kept firing [Air Booms], So Benedetta couldn’t respond even when he saw the [Earth Spikes] Coming.

No matter which of the two hits, if you don’t have the [Ring of Immortality], You’re dead.

“Ugh… !!”

Benedetta stabbed by a sharp awl-like dirt.

The [Ring of Immortality] Changed it like a blow and fell backwards.

Clava said as she approached Benedetta.

“I think learning double casting first is more important than learning advanced magic.”

“… Isn’t double casting a more difficult skill than high-ranking magic that even a few knights can’t do?”

“Is that so? Well, if you can’t, there’s nothing you can do.”

At Clava’s last words, Benedetta rather clenched his fists.

Because Benedetta has a strong desire to win, the fact that she suffered helplessly would split her.

Still, he stood up from the ground, straining his eyes and shouting.

“I will definitely learn it, double casting.”

Caitlyn is next after Benedetta.

In the case of Caitlyn, she has to learn evasive tanks from the beginning.

I told Clava about that in advance.

Caitlyn drew two daggers and stood close to Clava.

Clava put her arms under her own breast and said, “Umm….” She said in a troubled voice.

“As expected, I will attack with multiple weapons, so try to avoid it. I learned to avoid it by intuition.”

“Yes? By feeling?”

“Then let’s begin.”

First, Clava took up her longsword and began to swing it.

Caitlyn dodged the sudden start of the attack with a “Wow!”

As expected, Caitlyn had a talent for dodging.

She didn’t take a single attack from Clava for over 5 minutes.

From noble mtl dot com

Much longer than the monster’s attack during the transformation of the underground dungeon.

Luisa, Elianne, Lando, Delia, and Benedetta all opened their eyes wide.

“This time, spear!”

I was most excited about Clava.

She threw the sword to the floor and picked up the spear.

She changed her weapon like flowing water without the slightest gap.

As the seven minutes passed, Caitlyn’s breathing became more and more difficult.

She narrowly escaped the successive thrusts of the spear.

“Ugh… , Huh….”

Ten minutes passed.

Caitlyn was sweating profusely.

She kept moving her body as well as Clava, but she didn’t show any signs of straining at all.

Clava held up her horse gun instead of her spear this time.

I don’t know anything else, but the speed is the fastest horse gun among all weapons.

Can you avoid the horse gun’s magic bullets while exhausted?

Bang—!

As soon as Clava pulled her trigger, her magic bullet was fired from her muzzle.

A magic bullet headed for Caitlyn’s forehead.

Caitlyn tilted her body to the right as if reading her direction.

But it’s a bit late.

“Aww!”

It brushed her ears.

Her once knocked her balance, causing her to trip over.

“Woo-wook….”

Caitlyn lasted about 12 minutes.

She put her palms on the ground and retched.

It seemed that he was physically at his limit.

Clava approached her.

“Hey, it’s the first time, but this is a genius, a genius.”

“Really? Ug….”

“I don’t know about the knights, but most of the tanks are defeated after I attack them for less than 10 minutes!”

hahahaha, Clava smiled proudly.

Then Caitlyn gave a small smile.

I was praised as a genius by an S-class mercenary, so I can’t help but be happy.

“Let’s do it, Mr. Joel.”

“I do.”

She wore the [Ring of Fire] On her wrist and went forward.

After grabbing her horse gun, she raised her muzzle toward the clava.

“Guess me.”

Clava jumped up like her monkey, alternating her left and right legs in a dance.

I intentionally put in off beats in the middle.

As expected, irregularly moving targets are the most difficult.

When her body came into the sight and the sight, like the last time I caught the slime,

Bang—!

She pulled the trigger.

“I read it!”

While turning the windmill, he easily dodged the magic bullets I shot.

He was such a wonderful person.

No matter how many times it was triggered, it just passed through her hair.

Without her [Her time stop] Skill, it was next to impossible for me to hit her now.

Clava came towards me, she said.

“Actually, Joel-nim is really good at handling horse guns. I think it will be over with a few tips.”

“Tip?”

She pointed her finger at my side and at her trigger point.

“When you put magic power in, you just put in full as much as the magic gun sucks in, right?”

“Isn’t that usually the case?”

That’s how you go one step further.

“No.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Try to put less mana into it. About half.”

She put her finger on the trigger.

The mana flow stopped earlier than usual.

“Shoot it as it is.”

“Can I shoot like this?”

“Ah, shoot it.”

I pulled the trigger with my index finger.

Then, a magic bullet was fired along with a small gunshot somewhere.

From here on, it was a fact that I didn’t know.

… You don’t have to always fill up your mana.

“Can’t you feel the difference?”

“I don’t know. Except for the small magic bullets.”

“Ah, from the point of view of shooting, it is. Caitlyn, look at me from the side.”

Caitlyn, seemingly out of breath, stood side by side with Clava.

Clava instructed her to look carefully at her magic bullets.

Bang!

Bang—!

It fired once with half of the mana, and once with all of the mana.

As expected, I don’t know….

By the way, Caitlyn,

“Ah, different!”

She exclaimed.

Turning her head, “How?” She asked.

“It’s faster with half the mana!”

“Faster?”

Caitlyn explained in detail.

In short, it was said that the less magic power was injected, the faster the bullet speed.

Though it loses that much power.

Said Clava, nodding her head.

“In other words, Joel-sama’s task is to carefully control and shoot his mana!”

It’s easy to say, but it must be a difficult skill to do this in an urgent real battle.

For now, I should aim to learn it before the duel with the son of the Marquess of the Kingdom.

The only one left now is Elianne.

Delia brought her because she was afraid that someone might get hurt.

“Because there is no way to train supporters individually…. Hmm…. Just attack me all at once. Then, support them appropriately.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Clava offers a 6-to-1 so calmly.

I can’t even hit a single one, so we all attacked together.

… I didn’t really hit even one.

I felt with my body that S-class is not S-class for nothing.
