Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 103:

The knights’ attention was focused.

It is extremely rare to have the opportunity to see a sword master spar during one’s lifetime.

Each of the Sword Master’s actions can be a great insight for them as knights.

“Are you here?”

“Wow… I never thought a day like this would come in my life.”

“Don’t even blink. “I don’t know when a day like this will come again.”

Perhaps that was why all the knights in the count’s house gathered in one place.

More than 100 knights gathered at the training center, which can accommodate up to 50 people.

Fortunately, because it is a magic family, the number of knights is small.

A typical count family would have over 200 knights.

Because Millennium was a family with overwhelmingly more wizards than knights.

“come in.”

The Mercenary King smiled fiercely and waved his hand.

And then he turns his back.

I felt like they were watching over me and telling me not to worry and to attack as much as I wanted.

He raised his sword at an angle and looked at the mercenary king.

Even though it seemed to be standing roughly, there was no gap visible at all.

“I need to know your skills so I can tell you the right training method. So, come in first.”

He told me to come in, but I couldn’t.

I don’t know where to attack.

His body looked like Mount Tai.

“Aren’t you coming in?”

The mercenary king kept smiling and urged me to attack him quickly.

I tried to go in without any prompting.

I took a step forward and lightly swung my sword.

Tooung.

The sword bounced off the mercenary king’s fist.

“Hmph!”

Paaang –

The Mercenary King’s fist hit the air and made the sound of an exploding firecracker.

Paang Paaang –

The Mercenary King swung his fist without stopping as if he had been waiting.

My vision was covered with fists.

It felt like a wave crashing in.

But what was even more surprising was that he was doing the fist pumping at such an incredible speed with one hand.

Quaaaang!

I realized this after blocking just one attack.

His attacks should never be blocked.

I almost lost my sword just by glancing over it.

It was the strongest force I have ever felt.

Maybe even more than Ahar.

“Is this it? “Then I’m a bit disappointed!”

I was being made fun of.

Even though I am a sword master, I never thought I would be pushed this far.

Still, he also fought against Taurean, the sword master of the North.

The Mercenary King seemed like a person of a different class.

“Where has the image from back then gone?!”

As soon as I stepped back to get away from him, he quickly clung to me.

It seemed like he only walked a few steps, but he was already catching up to me a short distance away.

He gritted his teeth and swung his sword.

Boom!

It kept making a sound like hitting a bouncy ball with a stick.

There was no time to marvel at the fact that such a sound could be made when it collided with bare skin.

The mercenary king’s fist swings became faster and faster.

I can’t even remember how I’m holding on right now.

“Do it right! “I can’t even digest what I ate yesterday!”

It was my first time being pushed this far, so I felt pretty bad.

If I lose cleanly, I feel less dirty.

But this was literally a joke.

They deliberately kept me in a tight spot.

I could see that he was confident that I would not be the first to shout surrender.

If it had been before, out of pride and all, I would have shouted surrender right away.

I didn’t think of myself as being great enough to take care of my pride.

‘I’m going to go up and turn around.’

It’s different now.

I can see that they are openly making fun of me, but I don’t want to shout about surrender.

I want to hit him at least once.

“Oh, are you smiling now? “Are you a pervert?”

He trembled when he saw me.

He was looking at me like I was crazy, laughing as I kept getting hit.

“Okay, this is it. “I have to endure this much!”

He seemed to like seeing me like this even more and burst out laughing frivolously.

“Aaaah!”

I screamed and ran towards him.

It was quite frustrating, perhaps because it was difficult to swing the sword properly.

If I swing the sword just a little bit, I think I can find a way.

“Do more! “You did better than this back then!”

The mercenary king’s voice was quite annoying.

I don’t even remember exactly how I fought back then.

No, most of the memories from that time were gone.

From the third day onwards, my memory of what I did and how I did it disappeared.

It seemed to move as the body moved.

Honestly, I think it’s a miracle that I survived.

‘How is there no way?’

In order for me to fight properly, I have to get away from the Mercenary King.

To do that, first of all, what should I do with these fists?

“What are you giving up already?”

He was quite obnoxious as he never stopped moving his mouth while swinging his fist.

“This is so disappointing. You can do more. uh? I know you. “Please show me what you looked like back then!”

Even if he shouted hundreds of times that he didn’t know, his face didn’t believe him.

I gave up answering him and grabbed my sword with both hands.

‘can do. I did it back then, and there’s nothing I can’t do now.’

Isn’t it still holding up well like this?

Although he says he is matching my movements.

‘Let’s get out. I have to get out.’

I focused only on that and watched the Mercenary King’s movements.

His fists, his wrists, his cuffs, his shoulders.

I saw his muscle movements and predicted where he would attack.

Fuuuuuuu!

I didn’t care about the fist passing by my head.

I looked at the attack that would come next and thought about the timing to swing my sword.

You should not swing your sword hastily.

The sword I swung carelessly comes back to me in a big way.

‘It’s taking advantage of your guard down.’

He is letting down his guard.

At first, it seemed like he was serious about dealing with me, but as time went by and I couldn’t fight properly, he became more and more relaxed.

‘now!’

After dodging the fist, I saw him trying to extend a new fist.

This time, I pulled my arm back as far as I could, as if I wanted to use a lot of force.

Even that was so fast that five fists flew before I could even blink.

I could only see it if I kept concentrating without blinking.

I swung my sword.

Huh!

The sword split the air.

The mercenary king avoided it by turning his head to the side instead of blocking it.

I aimed for that.

“Now to attack…!”

He closed his open mouth.

I let go of the sword I was holding.

The mercenary king was embarrassed by this and his reaction was delayed.

Wow –

the blow went right.

Two fakes with the sword were successful.

My fist landed squarely in his abdomen.

“Whoops…!”

He moaned for the first time.

“What is it? “Did you succeed in your attack now?”

“crazy! “I punched the Sword Master!”

The cheers (?) of the knights were heard.

It’s a sword master.

I successfully struck a monster that couldn’t be defeated even by advanced knights, and couldn’t be defeated even by ten sword experts.

There was no time to rejoice at the first blow.

Kwaaaaang!

There was a loud noise and my vision darkened for a moment.

I felt like my body was floating, and a thrilling sensation spread across my back.

“young master!”

“Raymond!”

I saw Mahol and the princess running.

As I raised my upper body, holding my sore nose, I saw the Mercenary King looking down at his fist with a blank expression on his face.

“Ugh… it hurts.”

“Why don’t we stop now? “That’s enough.”

The princess said as she grabbed my shoulder as I tried to get up.

There were tears in her eyes, as if she was about to cry.

I looked at her quietly.

‘If you see me playing around with this, I’m sure he fainted when he saw me in the North.’

I woke up with a small laugh at the foolish thought.

For a moment, my head started spinning and my vision became blurry.

“Are you okay?”

The mercenary king looked embarrassed for the first time.

“I didn’t mean to do this. “Did I hit you too hard?”

Was he embarrassed because he couldn’t control his strength?

If that’s the case, it doesn’t really matter.

In fact, I felt better. Because I brought out his true feelings to some extent.

“Are you going to continue?”

“yes.”

But from earlier, the princess was very clingy.

It was quite annoying and strange, perhaps because he was doing something he didn’t normally do.

“Would you please come out? “The sparring is not over yet.”

After speaking to her as politely as possible, I looked back at the knights.

“What are you guys doing now? “Shouldn’t we stop anyone from entering the sparring hall?”

“I’m sorry!”

“Mahol, you too. Are you coming in with me just because I’m a little hurt? “At least you should have stopped the princess.”

“sorry.”

The knights and Mahol bowed their heads.

Entering the sparring hall where sparring has not yet finished is an action that must be taken with extreme caution.

Coming in and interrupting someone before the sparring had even finished was like ignoring them.

It is not strange to cut off the head of an interfering person on the spot.

“As a knight, shouldn’t you know and act in advance before I tell you?”

“….”

The knights bowed their heads without saying anything.

I can’t make excuses because there’s nothing wrong with what I said.

Even when the knights spar, they are on guard so that there is no interference.

Moreover, it is a sword master’s sparring.

They were more alert than when they sparred, not less.

“If the princess wants to live here in the future, she must know. “During a sparring match, you must not invade even if one of you dies.”

“…yes.”

The princess nodded.

I looked at her and let out a small sigh.

Even though she was a princess who didn’t know much about the world, I didn’t expect her to know something like this.

Still, since there are palace knights and faction fights, he must have the necessary knowledge.

‘I lost my nerve.’

My body, which had been heated up by her and Mahol’s intrusion, cooled down.

The Mercenary King was also scratching the back of his head.

It was difficult to spar again in this atmosphere.

The knights stiffened and bowed their heads to me, and the princess left the place with red eyes.

“It’s difficult.”

I sympathized with the mercenary king’s words.

They can’t spar properly and the princess seems to be in a very bad mood.

“I’m in a bad mood, so let’s spar again.”

“what?”

To relieve this irritating feeling, it is best to exercise vigorously so that you don’t have to think about it.

And there is nothing like sparring among those intense exercises.

“Let’s spar now?”

“yes.”

The Mercenary King’s thoughts were different from mine, and he was quite taken aback by my words.

“Is there something wrong?”

“…No. “There is no problem.”

He shook his head and moved back to the center.

Then, as he did the first time, he took his stance and waved his hand at me.

After sparring, I went back to my room and rested.

I was tired.

The Mercenary King was an opponent I couldn’t beat no matter what I did, so I was able to do my best.

Maybe that’s why I was quite tired after sparring.

Knock knock knock.

As I was rolling over in bed, there was a knocking sound on the window.

It was a sound like being struck with a hard wooden stick.

When I headed to the window, I saw Jeon Seo-gu tapping on the window with his beak.

‘Who is it?’

I unwrapped the note tied to Jeon Seo-gu’s leg and read it.

-Preparations are complete.

It was a very rude message that did not even reveal who he was.

“It’s William.”

The pattern of a wild dog’s head drawn at the bottom of the note.

That alone was enough to guess who sent this note.
