    Chapter 155

    Episode 155

    The Marquis of Schuppen was a man of few qualities and rarely spoke favorably of anyone.

    I rarely praised my son, but hearing him talk like that made me feel bad.

    “As I said before, this is a belated realization. Even if you train your basic skills for two months, how much will you train….”

    “well?”

    Marquis Schuppen cut him off.

    “I have a slightly different opinion. I don’t know what you did, but your movements have definitely improved in just a few days. If this continues, maybe in two months something strange will happen.”

    “!!”

    It was said that Sanin lost the bet.

    “…That won’t happen.”

    Sanin bit it hard.

    “I will show my father myself. I am in no way inferior to those arrogant guys from my family.”

    “…you.”

    That was a dangerous statement just now.

    Because it was a story about not recognizing the main family as a collateral line.

    Marquis Schuppen said coldly.

    “Watch your words.”

    Sanin clenched his fists.

    “I’m sorry for showing you my ugly side. I’ll go now.”

    Before Marquis Shupen could respond, Sanin turned around and disappeared.

    Marquis Schuppen sighed and blew out smoke from his cigarette.

    “Raising children isn’t easy.”

    actually.

    The reason Marquis Schuppen told Sanin this story was because he was thinking of his son, Sanin.

    ‘Arrogance is poison to Sanin.’

    An achievement that stands at the forefront of the next generation of Dark Maga, including direct and collateral branches.

    It was a situation where one could be arrogant enough.

    But that arrogance was becoming a poison that was invisibly eating away at Sanin, along with his inferiority complex.

    ‘Will Prince Christian be able to break Sanin’s arrogance?’

    Of course, objectively speaking, it was impossible.

    As Sanin said, how much can you really improve your basic skills in two months?

    but.

    – Two months is a very long time for a genius like me.

    Indeed, I was curious to see what Christian would look like after the promised time had passed.

    * * *

    Time passed quickly.

    Chris went through the same routine.

    I spent most of the day training my body while wearing the restraints that sealed my magic.

    The rest were trained to hone the basics of magic.

    ‘This is hard, damn it.’

    Chris swallowed a curse inwardly.

    I was struggling, but as expected, it didn’t fit my aptitude.

    ‘Why do I have to go through all this trouble? Damn it.’

    Although he was doing it because he needed to, the anger would suddenly well up in him and Chris would think about his ultimate goal.

    ‘Let us endure, thinking of preventing the destruction of the world and the wealth and honor we will one day enjoy. Wealth and honor! Wealth and honor!’

    Meanwhile, the Dark Lord’s minions who saw Chris like that stuck out their tongues.

    “How many days has it been already? It’s been over a month?”

    “That’s amazing. You’ve been training so hard for a whole month without stopping.”

    The laughter is gone.

    Because a person who puts in effort deserves respect for that alone.

    Of course, that’s it.

    “But even so, how can you defeat the Five Generals with only basic training?”

    “That’s right.”

    “As expected, it was an arrogant request for a duel.”

    That was when the mines shook their heads.

    Some people tilted their heads.

    ‘… Were the movements of Prince Christian originally that good?’

    ‘It seemed like it was a mess just a month ago?’

    ‘How many laps is this? Isn’t it 120 laps? It wasn’t even 50 laps originally. Am I remembering wrong?’

    The mines were confused.

    It’s ridiculous to think that your basic skills will improve that much in just one month.

    There was a reason.

    ‘There’s a secret to everything. There’s no way I, a genius, would do basic training in an ignorant manner.’

    Chris spat, thinking.

    ‘We are sharing the secrets of the famous Yiseon family.’

    Yes, that’s right.

    Chris wasn’t just doing basic training right now.

    He was using the body training method of a famous doctor.

    ‘Even within the prestigious medical school, it remains a secret and forgotten secret.’

    The reason it was forgotten was simple.

    Because it was impossible to put into practice.

    ‘Extreme Annihilation Physical Training Method’.

    It was the name of a secret.

    As the name suggests, it was a secret technique that worked the body to the limit and then strengthened it during the recovery process.

    ‘It is completely ineffective to simply and ignorantly overwork your body. You have to consciously focus on overworking your muscles, tendons, and soft tissues.’

    For example.

    Take a step. Then, after your foot touches the ground, kick.

    This is the running process.

    In the process, I had to ‘consciously’ work myself to death by concentrating on how the tendons contracted, how the muscles moved, and what force was applied to the soft tissues.

    ‘Even when I breathe, I have to focus on my heart and lungs. As if I were breathing and circulating my blood according to my own ‘will.’

    There are several reasons for doing this.

    There is a huge difference in the level of training and overwork between moving around absentmindedly and being conscious of each part of the body.

    Above all else.

    ‘This way, you can let the ‘will’ take hold in your body. The will to become stronger.’

    Highly focused will has a powerful effect on the body.

    ‘So, it’s a secret technique that can only be attempted once you reach 5 stars, which means you can handle at least the minimum willpower.’

    The problem is that there is no need to use this kind of technique if it is a 5-star unmanned unit.

    You must have already trained your body to perfection.

    The first reason why this technique was discontinued.

    ‘The more important reason is that maintaining concentration like this is impossible for most people.’

    I don’t know how many hours it will take.

    But there is no one in the world who can maintain that kind of concentration while physically pushing themselves to the limit all day long.

    Except for Chris.

    Afterwards, take the elixir you prepared before going to bed.

    It was an elixir that strengthened the tattered body.

    Because I repeated that process, my physical abilities improved so dramatically in just one month.

    ‘Training the basics of magic is my specialty. Even if I just put in a little effort, the efficiency is bound to be crazy.’

    Chris went into an empty space to do a quick check.

    Pfft!

    The Aura Blade unfolded.

    I felt a noticeably stronger energy compared to before.

    As your basic abilities become more solid, the vessel that holds your will also become stronger.

    ‘It’s not enough.’

    It was far from the ‘perfect Ganggi’ he had hoped for.

    ‘I guess I should change my methods now.’

    There was no need to stick to only basic training to train one’s body with the secret techniques of a famous martial artist.

    Rather, it was now time to move on to the next step.

    Chris came out and headed back to the training grounds.

    The soldiers were busy training.

    “Please meet Confucius!”

    “Are you training?”

    “Yes? That’s right. We’re planning to form a team and spar.”

    When Chris spoke to him in an unusual way, the drill instructor looked puzzled.

    “I guess you always do this. Why don’t you try changing your method for once?”

    “yes?”

    “I will teach you a lesson myself.”

    Chris took out the baton from the training ground.

    “Everyone here can come at me at once. I won’t use any magic.”

    The drill instructor looked puzzled.

    Even though they are mercenaries, there are currently 200 people receiving training.

    “Are you saying you’re going to take on those 200 people at once? Even though you’re a Confucius, without using magic, that’s….”

    “You are included.”

    “…yes?”

    “You too, rush in with those 200 people.”

    The drill instructor’s face hardened.

    By the way, the drill instructor was a three-star.

    It’s a small achievement compared to Chris’s, but hey, try to join forces with 200 people and take on the challenge.

    Even Christian has his magic sealed?

    “…It’s not our responsibility if you get hurt during training.”

    “Come on, if I lose I’ll shoot the beef.”

    Chris rattled the baton.

    The mercenaries rushed towards Chris, shouting.

    Chris looked at the figures of those thugs with sunken eyes.

    At the same time, I observed my own body. I could perfectly control every muscle, every movement of my entire body.

    Time passed like that again, and the promised time arrived.

    * * *

    People gathered at the training ground.

    I came to see the duel between Christian and the Five Captains.

    Since it was a duel of the original topic, it seemed that most of the Dark Lords’ executives who did not have any missions had gathered.

    “Who do you think will win?”

    “What can I say about that? Of course, it was Prince Christian’s defeat. It was a duel where they were no match to begin with.”

    “It will depend on how hard Prince Christian struggles.”

    No one among those gathered predicted Christian’s victory.

    Just how long can you hold out?

    I thought that even if he lost, the extent to which Christian could be seen was how well he could lose.

    “By the way, is Prince Christian here yet? Where is he?”

    “Really? He hasn’t been seen for the past week.”

    Christian, who had been undergoing basic training, suddenly disappeared a week ago.

    “It looks like you went for secret training, but what results will you get in just a week?”

    Some even secretly mocked him.

    “They say it’s the main house, the main house, but I wonder how great they’ll be.”

    “It doesn’t seem to be as great as it’s been said to be.”

    Although it wasn’t apparent at all on the outside.

    There were people who secretly looked down on the main family in the Dark Lord’s army.

    It was something that was unimaginable when Nord was on the front lines, but after Marquis Langham came to power, his family often showed a noisy and disappointing appearance.

    It’s not like Sanin was just being disloyal to Chris.

    Actually, it wasn’t surprising.

    Unlike the Union, which is obsessed with class, tradition, cause, and lineage, Mine is only concerned with the strong.

    The only reason the main family could reign supreme was because they were strong, so it was natural that when they were shaken, there would be those who rebelled.

    This was the reason why the candidate for the House of Lords had to gain the loyalty of the Dark Lord.

    That was also why this duel was important.

    If Christian fails to show a good performance, it will have a negative impact on the Dark Lord’s loyalty to the main family.

    On the other hand, if you show an overwhelming presence, it will be an opportunity to solidify loyalty.

    ‘Of course, the chances of that happening are slim.’

    At that moment, it became noisy outside.

    A boy appeared in the distance.

    The familiar face of an arrogant nobleman.

    It was Christian.

    “It’s a little late.”

    The people gathered in the training ground suddenly shut their mouths at the leisurely voice.

    I felt something was different about Christian.

    Compared to when I first came to the Dark Army, no, compared to when I last saw it a week ago, it was clearly different.

    As if I had shed my shell and become someone else.

    The mines realized the reason.

    ‘I reached 5 stars!’

    It was unbelievable.

    It was only about half a year ago that rumors began to spread that Christian had become a four-star.

    But it’s already 5 stars?

    But that wasn’t what was truly surprising.

    ‘It’s only a 5-star low, but how can it be so intimidating?’
