5 – Map Match

Evan and Cynthia went to the training room in the research building.

I received envious glances from the teaching assistants before leaving. They are also swordsmen before being teaching assistants. That Professor Cynthia’s private lessons, you couldn’t get it even if you gave 10 million won.

Something the usual Cynthia would never have done.

Cynthia was just a special situation, she comforted herself.

There was no one in the training room in the professor’s research building.

First of all, it’s a building for a knight academy, so it was a place that was made ceremonially. Each of the professors has a familiar and luxurious training room in their own mansion. There were no professors who dared to use the training room in the faculty research building.

Still, management was steady, and many wooden and iron swords glistened with grease on one wall. Cynthia chose a hard steel sword with a blunt blade. She could choose her long sword, her sword, but since this was also a sparring with Evan, she chose a sword similar to the one Evan was holding.

Unfortunately, the master and the disciple thought each other taught each other.

“I’ll tell you just in case, but don’t put your hands on me.”

“Are you saying you won’t fight?”

“……….”

Body fight, sword wrestling.

In real combat sparring, you don’t fight with only swords. The majority of knights use both fists and kicks. However, Cynthia was constantly suspicious of Evan’s intentions. Should she use her sparring as an excuse to touch her own body?

“Yes.”

It should be fine as long as you look after the sword.

Evan said nothing more. It seems she only wants to learn the sword honestly. Although the thinking is somewhat narrow-minded, I respect Cynthia’s enthusiasm. Evan straightened up her wooden sword. It was the middle posture, the basic posture to defend the waist.

“I will give up the first attack.”

“It’s okay.”

When Evan starts to open her sword, Cynthia loses her focus on her own sword. It is only natural to concede the first attack in Dalian. Evan was a little excited.

‘This is my first time teaching others.’

It is said that an experienced swordsman gains enlightenment while teaching his disciples. Wouldn’t it be possible to experience the experience that I have only heard about in words?

Cynthia put on a somewhat bewildered face.

“…… Under.”

What should I do with this cheeky student? Cynthia was the daughter of her proud Gramberge, enough to ignore Cynthia to the extent that she had been working hard the past few days. Didn’t she acknowledge Charles and all her academy professors?

“Don’t regret it.”

Cynthia said in a cold voice.

Evan waited quietly.

Cynthia hated that appearance. She draws an iron sword and holds it with one hand as if wielding her three sword.

‘I have to press her nose down.’

A student’s duty is to be humble. It’s not that I trust my humble skills and ignore the professor. It’s rude

Cynthia glared at Evan as she slowly adjusted her posture.

Evan is just looking at Cynthia with her lightly open eyes. To be honest, Cynthia was surprised. Cynthia and all of her sparring students were more than nervous, fearful, or more excited than they needed to be. She seems to have to shed all of herself before being overpowered by Cynthia.

Evan didn’t see this kind of impatience as a novice swordsman. She’s just sinking deep. Cynthia was puzzled by the features she saw in the old swordsman.

‘…… I must have copied her appearance.’

Because if you act, you can imitate her appearance.

The important thing is a real sword.

Putting aside her thoughts, Cynthia remembered the attack. Numerous avenues of attack drifting through her head.

Gramberge’s arcane sword technique 「Winter Queen’s Sword」 Was removed from her selection. If you use it on Evan, who will surely have a thousand magical powers, she will kill Evan. It is impossible to use Gramberge’s arcane swordsmanship without magic.

For this reason, Cynthia chose the basic swordsmanship listed in the textbook.

‘First of all, have a learning attitude.’

Cynthia prepared to slash down with all her might. This is to ruin Evan’s cheeky attitude rather than give her lessons. Evan must have missed the sword.

The iron sword swung with that intention cut through the air riding on the wind.

Hooung!

“…… ?”

I couldn’t feel the taste. Cynthia looked back and forth between her knife point and Evan with her sullen face. Evan’s wooden sword is pressed against Cynthia’s iron sword. There was not even a power struggle. Evan dodged Cynthia’s iron sword and shed her Cynthia’s power.

This was the way a person with two levels of skill would do it to a subordinate.

“…… You are lucky.”

From noble mtl dot com

But Cynthia denied it because Evan could never have a higher level of skill than Cynthia.

‘Admit it. I was excited.’

I was momentarily blinded by Evan’s cheeky attitude. Cynthia took a deep breath and considered the next attack route.

Evan is waiting for Cynthia’s attack like a rock. The fact that she seemed to be teaching Cynthia was very disturbing, but Cynthia did not make the same mistake twice.

With her eyes wide open, she swings her sword the best path she can draw. The afterimages of countless snowflakes embroidering Evan’s eyes dizzy.

It wasn’t Gramberge’s arcane swordsmanship, but it was unstoppable at the level of a student, with its trick intact.

‘It is an honor to know you.’

Even if it is an imitation of 「The Sword of the Winter Queen」, It is very rare to be seen by outsiders.

Perhaps a reward for stopping Cynthia’s first attack.

It is courtesy to the other person.

The cold snowflakes in full bloom and the art of the sword, which seemed to swallow Evan, was blocked by Evan’s single swing.

Took.

Pak!

Again, Evan’s sword occupied the top of Cynthia’s iron sword.

Cynthia’s sword pathetically attacks the ground.

Cynthia’s face was grotesquely distorted. Once is a coincidence, not twice. Then she has to admit that Evan is superior to Cynthia, at least when it comes to her swordsmanship, which didn’t make sense.

“……… Are your eyes good? Or, where did she find the Winter Queen’s sword?”

“I’ve seen it briefly.”

“Aha.”

Evan in his previous life liked Cynthia so much that he watched her every move. Then she saw Cynthia unfold the Winter Queen’s sword.

But the reason why Evan is blocking Cynthia’s sword right now is just by watching Cynthia swing her sword. The Winter Queen’s sword didn’t even come to Evan’s mind.

“Even if you know the Winter Queen’s sword, it’s amazing. It seems like I studied hard without knowing it?”

‘Has been training for nearly 100 years, so I did my best.’

“Will Evan attack me this time?”

‘An opponent who can’t even attack properly will block my sword?’

Looking at Cynthia, whose complexion had calmed down before she knew it, Evan thought it was funny.

‘Strike.’

It must be the stroke of Cynthia, who is still in her early twenties.

But there is nothing she can’t show to those who ask to learn. It is the virtue of a superior that she cares more for her subordinates than for herself. Since the shape is also a map, Evan recalled the Winter Queen’s sword she had seen one day.

Snowflakes in full bloom, the chilly northern wilderness.

Gramberge’s arcane swordsmanship, which seemed to capture the North as it was, was splendid but cold and light.

Evan swung her sword.

In his swordsmanship, which removed all superfluities, there was not a single dazzling swordsmanship. While each one was a real blow to inflict a fatal wound, the overall shape was large and splendid.

‘Similar to the sword of the Winter Queen… Different!’

And it was slow. This happened because Evan’s abilities were very low, but Cynthia did not know this.

Evan unleashed his own Winter Queen’s sword as best he could. That improved form is a form that Cynthia could never have imagined.

Cynthia wanted to see what kind of picture would be drawn if magic was put into this path.

A huge snowflake was eventually completed, and a wooden sword flew into Cynthia’s neck as if making a point.

Pak!

Because it flew slowly, she was blocked by Cynthia’s iron sword.

Evan’s eyes widened slightly. This sword, which would have overpowered Cynthia originally, was blocked because Evan’s strength ability was E.

‘…… It’s simple, but I overlooked it.’

When immersed in her sword, she keeps thinking of her previous self. He should have accepted his weak self right now, but Evan felt that he was lacking in training.

Cynthia felt her joy and excitement at the same time. The relief of blocking Evan’s sword, and the fact that his abilities are at the student level.

Also, a huge snowflake that gives Cynthia infinite inspiration.

Evan’s snowflakes were bright and calm, as if they contained the northern sun.

‘Maybe… You followed me not because you saw me as a woman, but because you wanted to see Gramberge’s arcane swordsmanship?’

This unexpected appearance made Cynthia think.

Cynthia was offended by Evan, if she was right. She dared to steal the Winter Queen’s sword, which was allowed only to Gramberge’s immediate family.

But on the other hand, it gave me goosebumps that Evan was so crazy about swords. It’s because they want to become stronger by stealing and learning other people’s swordsmanship, which is not allowed by social norms.

Of course, this was Cynthia’s misunderstanding.

“Originally, foreigners shouldn’t use Gramberge’s arcane swordsmanship, but… I’ll close my eyes this time. I got to see you again No, did I get it wrong? It sounds like you’ve researched the Winter Queen’s sword a lot. However, you cannot use it anywhere else.”

“Aren’t you going to sparring anymore?”

“Yes? Aha, Evan If you want more…….”

Evan shook his head. In order for the superiors to be more impatient in map sparring, the sewage must be as talented as that. Evan wasn’t particularly amused by Cynthia.

She said she learned something new while teaching, but it was nonsense. I just found out that this body is trash beyond imagination. I need to raise her ability as soon as possible.

Evan retrieved her wooden sword and left her training room.

“Am I going as is?”

Cynthia looked at Evan’s back with her strange face. She shouldn’t think like this, but Cynthia didn’t look like today’s Evan at all as a student.

A cold-hearted swordsman?

There is such a person. While their physical strength is low, their knowledge of swords is great. It’s not that Evan is the same as them just by showing it for a moment.

Cynthia naturally thought of them.
