Legendary Hero is an Academy Honors Student – 218



218

‘Are you going to treat it appropriately?’

Austin made a bewildered expression.

This was the case not only for Austin but also for other practitioners.

Garris the trainee that Austin was currently dealing with was an outstanding person.

An opponent that Austin has never beaten in a sparring match between practitioners.

When sparring with an opponent like that please be considerate.

‘What kind of confidence does Master Leo have?’

Austin who was laughing inwardly felt his tension relax.

‘Yes I have been through Master Leo’s harsh training for the past month.’

After experiencing Leo’s training I felt like I could overcome any ordeal.

Austin took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the wooden sword.

A wooden sword in the shape of a bastard sword suitable for his size.

Seeing Austin like that Garris laughed and pointed his sword.

‘bouncer.’

While Austin wielded destructive swordsmanship using a bastard sword Garris despite his size used sophisticated and fast swordsmanship using a rapier.

Austin was unable to keep up with Gary’s speed every time and lost by an overwhelming margin.

As the two people standing in the middle of the training hall looked at each other Garys started to lightly jump in his seat and take steps.

“Tell me the value Austin.”

At the same time as he said that Gary rushed toward Austin at incredible speed.

Hwaak-

Austin swung his sword at Garris who was running at him at high speed.

Huh!

“joy! “It’s still an ignorant attack!”

Woe!

As Garris took a step he dodged Austin’s sword and dug to the left.

The speed is so fast that it makes your eyes dizzy.

However Austin’s sword accurately pursued Garris.

Garris who was trying to evade and counterattack hurriedly swung his sword for defense.

Wow!

A sound so heavy that it was hard to believe that a wooden sword and a wooden sword had crossed each other rang out.

Garris twisted his face at the pain he felt in his wrist.

Austin had incredible strength.

“It looks like you made some progress. then….”

Garris activated his aurors.

Paaa-!

Austin looked perplexed as he watched Gary increase his speed even more.

He was not surprised by his speed but by his own ability to react to Gary’s speed which had been difficult to respond to until a month ago.

Whick!

Garris looked surprised as Austin dodged his thrust.

“What?

And then they began to launch an urgent attack.

Woe! Pabababat!

There was a lot of flashy stabbing and cutting.

Other trainees who thought that Garris had overpowered Austin whistled and cheered.

However the complexion of trainees with top grades changed suddenly.

‘Garys’ attacks don’t work?’

Garris’s swordsmanship is a style that subdues opponents with speed.

The fact that the speed did not work meant that the opponent could not be defeated.

Of course Austin also had no time to counterattack so sparring became stagnant.

However it was shocking that Austin who was in the middle of the rankings had the same number of points as Gary who was at the top.

‘The ability to manipulate the body and Aurors was sufficient from the beginning. What was lacking was technology.’

Leo who was watching the sparring chuckled.

All of Leo’s knights are from low-ranking nobles or commoners.

As a result he is bound to have some shortcomings compared to other trainees who have systematically trained swordsmanship to become a knight since childhood.

Nevertheless his talent was so outstanding that he ranked mid-ranking among the trainees.

Leo identified the most necessary parts of the knights’ swordsmanship and focused on training them.

The results have come out now.

‘Because kids grow up quickly.’

While you are saying things to yourself that would have made others laugh.

“Ugh! “You bastard!”

Garris’ eyes sparkled.

‘What a mess this is!’

He was aiming for a position in the Order of Leo.

But he couldn’t avoid struggling against Austin who he thought was clearly a step below him?

It was an angry situation for Garys who thought it was an opportunity to show Leo his skills.

‘Gap!’

As his composure collapsed an opening opened up for Austin to dig into.

Buang-!

“omg?”

Garris stepped back in surprise.

The flow of sparring changed in an instant.

Austin who had become accustomed to the speed began to put pressure on Gary.

Sparks flew from Garris’ eyes.

“You bastard!”

Gooooooo-!

A powerful aura formed on Garris’ sword.

Austin seeing that concentrated even more.

Ugh-!

Austin’s Bastard Sword also shined.

Seeing Austin like that Gary quickly stabbed him.

In terms of Auror power Jerry’s was clearly superior to Austin’s.

“Sigh!”

Austin also swung his sword with enthusiasm.

At that moment a magic spell appeared above Austin’s sword.

“what?!”

Garris exclaimed in astonishment.

Kwagak-!

“Keuuk?!”

Austin’s sword whose power was increased by aura and strengthening magic smashed Garris’ sword.

Huh!

Austin’s sword stopped right in front of Garris’ neck.

Garris’ face which had opened his eyes wide became distorted.

“It’s a foul! you! “Where is the use of magic artifacts?”

At Garris’s shout Austin withdrew his wooden sword and said.

“I used the magic.”

“lie! “You became a magic swordsman in just one month?”

“okay.”

“Nonsense!”

Garris protested harshly.

We have been trainees together for several years.

I had never heard that Austin had the talents of a wizard.

While the other trainees also looked in disbelief Leo smiled and said.

“It’s the magic Austin used just now.”

“yes?”

“I’ve been teaching you magic for the past month because you have talent as a wizard.”

“What nonsense…! no! Even if it makes sense it’s against the rules! This was a swordsmanship sparring! And we are Gerdinger’s knight apprentices! “Magic is unacceptable!”

“What does this have to do with using magic with a Jerdinger trainee?”

“As someone who aims to become a proud knight of Gerdinger you can dabble in magic!”

“So you’re saying I can’t tolerate it either?”

“…!”

When Leo asked indifferently Garris’ face turned white.

I was so excited at the thought of losing to Austin that I blurted out something and ended up making a mistake.

Leo also uses magic.

“I! That’s right! “I made a mistake…!”

“it’s okay. “Let’s continue the next sparring.”

Leo spoke without even looking at Garris.

Afterwards the sparring took place with Julan Karin Valery in that order.

And in that sparring all of Leo’s knights won.

Julan and Karin demonstrated their abilities as spirit knights without fail.

Valerie achieved victory by actively utilizing the Auror characteristics revealed by Leo.

“Great! Overwhelming victory!”

“Is it because you’ve been harassed by Master Leo for a month? “I can clearly see the movement!”

Julan and Karin high-fived and made a fuss as if they couldn’t believe their growth.

“Valerie! “You too?”

Karin asked excitedly and Valerie nodded.

“huh. “First of all it hurt a lot less than getting hit by Master Leo.”

“….”

“….”

Julan and Karin looked at Valerie with sad faces.

Meanwhile Martina climbed onto the training ground.

On the other side stood an Endian.

Martina gave strength to the wooden sword.

‘Everyone won but I can’t be the only one to lose.’

Endian was currently ranked among the top five skilled practitioners among his peers.

Endian also adjusted his wooden sword while looking at Martina.

‘If you look at the other guys Martina would have gained new abilities too.’

I don’t know what magic Leo used but Leo’s knights achieved the highest level of skill among trainees through the awakening of dual classes or auror characteristics.

‘You must not let down your guard.’

Endian holding the sword with both hands lowered his posture and took a deep breath.

Martina also took the same posture.

Woe!

And without anyone else doing anything they charged at each other at the same time.

To explore Martina’s abilities Endian used defensive swordsmanship.

Huh! Bah!

Endian narrowed his eyes at the heavy sword loaded with aura.

The two people who activated their auras from the start moved their bodies quickly.

But as time passed Endian’s eyes began to look suspicious.

Endian felt that Martina had not changed much.

I can see that my skills have improved.

However he does not use magic like Austin nor does he make a contract with spirits like Karin and Julan.

Furthermore she did not have any special Auror characteristics awakened like Valerie.

I just swung my sword with the same honesty as usual.

“It looks like you haven’t developed any abilities like the other guys.”

Endian curled the corners of his mouth.

“Then the story is easy.”

After completing the search Endian immediately switched to attack.

Grumble!

A blue flame erupted from the Endian sword.

The Terius family an Endian family has been a vassal of Jerdinger for generations.

As such he was given the Auror method by Gerdinger a long time ago.

Martina held her sword tightly.

The Auror mind method that trainees are learning is ultimately an Auror mind method related to flame.

However only by mastering the Auror mind technique could the flame be produced.

It was also the process of finishing my trainee life and being recognized as an apprentice engineer.

The red flame is the symbol of the Gerdinger knight.

When you become an apprentice knight you are given new Auror skills.

In that sense it could be said that Endian who learned the Auror method from his family had a different starting line from other trainees.

It may be a blue flame but a flame is a flame.

Normally I would have been intimidated by the flame aura.

But Martina was not afraid to face the Endian flame.

I saw a boy who couldn’t even use Aurors defeat a monster like a hero in a story.

And the boy showed truly heroic steps.

‘Master Leo said so. We can also enroll in Lumern.’

What is an article?

Wasn’t he someone who followed his master’s words?

‘I will remain as Master Leo’s knight.’

Gooooo-!

‘I’m going to enter Lumern to become a knight worthy of Master Leo!’

With that desire alone I worked hard at Leo’s training for a month.

And the efforts paid off.

Grumble-!

A red flame signifying the trainee’s graduation formed on Martina’s sword.

“no…!”

Endian looked shocked.

Martina was also embarrassed when she saw her flames but soon calmly swung her sword.

Wow!

The Endian sword broke and soared into the sky.

chuck-!

Martina’s wooden sword engulfed in flames stopped under Endian’s chin.

“I won. “Endian.”

“Tsk!”

Endian gritted his teeth.

Then he lowered his head and said.

“…I lost.”

At those words Martina sheathed her sword.

“Sister Martina!”

Karin ran to Martina and hugged her with a bright smile.

All the practitioners looked in disbelief.

Five people who were at best in the middle of the rankings defeated the top students in just one month!

“This has been decided.”

Leo chuckled.

“He proved it with his skills. “If there is any military talk related to my knighthood in the future I will not remain silent.”

In fact the issues that came up related to the Knights were issues that could be easily handled with Leo’s authority.

Still the reason I watched this situation was simple.

They were given the opportunity to solve it on their own.

And they successfully proved themselves worthy of being Leo’s knights.

“Now go do your own thing.”

At Leo’s words the trainees dispersed.

Various currents of energy flowed among the practitioners.

Some people gritted their teeth and went to practice while others still could not accept the situation.

But he didn’t say anything overtly anymore.

This is because he could not help but recognize the skills of Leo’s knights including Martina who was qualified as an apprentice knight.

“This is all thanks to Master Leo!”

Austin bowed his head.

“that’s right! “Thanks to Master Leo I was able to become stronger!”

Karin also smiled brightly and said.

Life for a month was hell but the reward for those hard days was clear.

Leo said while looking at the happy knights.

“I just pushed you.”

It was the knights who endured such harsh training that it would not be surprising if they gave up.

“You are the ones who have become stronger. So don’t thank me you can be proud of yourself.”

The knights looked touched by Leo’s words.

“Now then since no one will complain anymore about the fact that you are my knights shall we name the knights?”

The moment you decide on a knighthood name you now become a true knight of Leo.

Leo said while everyone looked nervous.

“Slayer.”

The knights looked puzzled at Leo’s words.

“Are you a slayer?”

Martina looked embarrassed.

It meant a massacre.

It was a name that did not suit a knighthood.

Leo said while looking at Martina.

“I will continue to fight against Tartarus.”

Leo’s gaze landed on the knights.

“If you follow me you will naturally continue to fight against them.”

“okay. From now on we are Master Leo’s sword. “If that is the path that Master Leo is taking the name Slayer would be appropriate.”

Martina grinned.

Then he knelt down.

The others followed suit and bent their knees.

“The five of us including Martina pledge to become knights who will become your sword and shield from now on and open the path for you.”

Martina who recited the knight’s oath as a representative raised her head.

“Please allow me to serve you as my master for the rest of my life.”

“I allow it.”

Leo smiled as he looked at the knights who would become his right-hand men for the rest of his life.

The knightly oath ended and the Slayer Knights stood up.

Leo said looking at them who had somehow become dignified.

“Oh and since we passed the first stage of training shall we start the second stage?”

Ujijik-

The entire knighthood froze at those words.

“2nd stage? Is there such a thing?”

When Karin asked with a trembling voice Leo crossed his arms.

“of course. Your goal is to enter Rumern. “There is still a long way to go.”

Leo muttered as he looked at the knights turning white.

“I’ve been to the mountains so next time…”

Next to the mountain was usually the sea.

“Sea of ​​fire?”

All of the knights felt dizzy at the training location that far exceeded their expectations.
