The Academy's Barbarian-Chapter 65
(2)
3.
Clash between Ulan and Count.
The moment the gap between each other narrows.
The two disappeared as if evaporating..
Proof that the master's realm has expanded. And the moment the area opened, the general public was not even allowed to see it..
Caang! Kagagak! Caen!
I even heard the clash of weapons..
only until there. It was impossible to see with the naked eye. It looked like they were fighting while teleporting, so Berger frowned at him..
“……what do you see?”
“no, i don't see any.”
Deflin shook his head..
Even if you are a great wizard, it is impossible to follow the master's realm with your eyes..
“I can feel it instead.”
“what do you mean?”
“Only the center of the two realms, that is, the place where the Uhlan and the Count are, the magic flow is cut off..”
“that means?”
“It means that magic power strong enough to cut off the flow of magic power is swirling. It's so twisted that if you get caught up in it, you'll be half dead..”
I mean, that's how dangerous it is..
Verze once again stared at the arena with a worried face. Please, I hope there is no damage to Ulan..
but that's for a while.
He was out of his mind. It was because of Dipplin who kept glancing at me..
“What have you been glancing at since before??”
“hehe, that's it.”
After spitting out a shy smile.
Dipplin spoke softly..
“Now that the situation has come to this, receiving Ulan's cooperation in my research is…….”
Of course, you could extend the period a bit longer.?
Dipplin tried to ask that. But Berger's thoughts were completely different..
“Of course, I had to do something that didn't exist. You couldn't stop Sir Istan and Ulan from meeting.?”
“Ahaha, are you kidding??”
“it looks like i'm joking?”
“…….”
A serious face without a smile.
Did you realize that things were going wrong??
Dipplin quickly drooped his shoulders. Meanwhile, inspectors approached from afar..
“I will report to the dean.”
“Behavior Winner Secured.”
“hmm? what does that mean?”
“There were two students who were hiding in the woods watching this place, so I tied them up..”
students were watching?
As I was frowning at the unexpected words, the inspector held out something. It was a student ID confiscated from the arrested students..
【1Grade 3, Noah Darschen】
【1Grade 3, Ybela Elead】
“3half…….”
I'm in the same class as Ulan.
I feel like I know roughly how things go before and after. As Berger's eyes narrowed, the inspectors asked cautiously..
“What should I do?”
“Whoa, let me bring you here.”
Some time after Berger's answer.
Two girls were dragged tied to a rope.
A face with a clear expression of tension. Verze instructed them to untie the rope and asked the two of them..
“Why did you come here?”
“that's it…….”
Noah is talking gibberish as if embarrassed.
Originally, he was just chasing Ibella, but in this way, it would be like putting the blame on her. So I made a new reason.
“Ooh, because Ulan's coming here!”
“The special task force also said they were going to the Magic Fountain, so I came here because I was curious..”
After the two of them answered, Bergé asked the second question with an expression of as expected..
“Then how far have you seen?”
“uh, that's…….”
This must be answered carefully.
Noah hesitated, but Ibela was different. As if I had no intention of hiding this answer.
“I've seen it all.”
“what?”
“I watched it all from start to finish.”
Immediately after Ibella's answer.
The surrounding atmosphere froze..
So was Noah. It would be natural. The answer I just gave was the worst answer I could give in this situation..
“Phew, then I can't help it.”
Verse sighed in succession..
his eyes shone fiercely.
“have to do that.”
“……!”
Are you thinking of keeping your mouth shut??
Noah's complexion turned pale in an instant. But what came back was an unexpected answer..
“I need to write an oath.”
“stand, oath?”
“okay. A written oath to swear not to reveal everything you saw here.”
More normal answer than I thought.
While Noah was absentmindedly, Berger ordered the inspector to bring the oath..
“It's to prevent Ulan's true ability from escaping, so I'd appreciate your cooperation..”
“yes four! I'll do that.”
After breathing out a sigh of relief.
Then I looked around.
Among them, it was definitely three men and women who caught the eye. Noah opened her mouth with wide eyes..
‘There's Dipplin Cernio in Verze Erkazan, and even Lord Gorfant.?!’
All three named characters.
Even Seoric is famous for being the so-called oldest character that users can play directly..
A being famous for facing the monsters of the abyss on a battlefield different from the seven heroes, rising to the pinnacle of the imperial military in the future..
‘There was never anything like this in the original..’
Verse and Diflin were deans of the Department of Military Science and the Department of Magic, respectively, so even if you said you could meet them, only Ceoric Al Gorfant was an exception..
That man is a hero on the western front.
And at this point, he was concentrating on developing his own power, so he wouldn't visit the academy in the first place..
‘But being here…….’
This is probably also due to the variable called Ulan..
How far is the future going to be twisted? As she let out a sigh inside her, she suddenly heard Bella's voice..
“……dean.”
Staring straight at Berger.
she asked in a trembling voice..
“Is Ulan really an expert??”
Eyes shaking as much as your voice.
Ibella's gaze returned to the arena..
“If so, how can I fight as an equal with Count Deorg? that's like…….”
“I'll answer you when you fill out the pledge.”
The pledge just arrived.
Then Ibella scrawled the signature without reading it. As if this isn't important right now.
“tell me now.”
daring attitude. Berger's eyebrows twitched..
But that's for a while. Retrieving the oath, he nodded obediently and acknowledged it..
“that's right. as you guess.”
“that, that is…….”
“Ulan is not an expert. He is a strong man who has reached the level of a master..”
“……!?”
The Moment When Guessing Turned into Certainty.
There was amazement and disbelief in Evelyn's eyes..
Did you notice this? Berger added an additional explanation.
“Of course, it's hard to understand with common sense. But you can't deny what's happening right in front of you.?”
after answering.
Wrinkled eyes looked at the arena.
A battle that still cannot be followed with the naked eye. Pointing to the scenery only allowed to Master, he calmly said as if giving advice..
“Watch it if you have no other questions.”
The Master has a considerable influence on the swordsmen just by swinging the sword. But what if it was a confrontation between masters?.
“You won't be able to see inside the realm, but that battle will be of great help to those who walk the path of the sword..”
“…….”
But there was no need for advice.
Even before Berger's advice began, Ibella was already looking at the arena..
It is because of instinctive awareness. Even if you can't see it, you have to keep it in your eyes.
It was the same with Noah..
Of course, the reasons were completely different..
‘……Ulan was the master?’
Eyes stained with confusion and astonishment.
It was natural. Because Ulan can become a Master only after he turns 27..
‘Impossible! No matter how imprinted a hero is, the speed is ridiculously fast!’
No matter how good Kazan's ability is, it's not enough to narrow the time of 10 years. Then, what is the variable that can transcend these years??
trembling eyes.
Feeling uneasiness that never subsided, Noah bit his lip..
‘this world is really…….’
did i know?
With a sudden question.
Noah's eyes twinkled. Like a candle moving unsteadily in front of the wind.

istan el deorg.
Commonly known as Count Deorg.
He inherited the family at a fairly late age..
The external reason was that he was originally a collateral, not a direct descendant of the count's family, but the real reason was a little different..
It is because of the long tradition of the family..
「The owner of Deorg must be a master unconditionally. Pedigree is a matter of discussion.」
At that time, there were no Masters or even Experts in the direct lineage. As a result, an opportunity came to Istan, who became a knight of the Empire and was constantly wandering the frontlines..
As the only expert in the family, he received numerous support as a successor from this point on, and finally reached the level of master..
‘It was like a dream.’
The day I officially became the owner of Deorg.
his life has changed completely.
The eyes that had been dismissed as being from the collateral disappeared completely, and all the power and power of the family was placed in Istan's hands..
At this time, the concubine and daughter, who had been kept outside the castle, were also summoned to the castle. I couldn't officially give him the last name of Deorg, but I was satisfied with that..
‘I thought you'd be happy all the time…….’
reality was different.
The sweet times were for a while.
A terribly boring time has come to Istan, who has returned to the frontlines again..
‘ashes syndrome.’
It felt like I had stopped growing..
The feeling of being blocked not by the wall of martial arts, but by the wall created by reality. No matter how many heathens I killed, my thirst was not quenched..
There is only one way to solve this.
It was all about fighting against people who were equal to him or those who were strong. However, the wall of reality did not allow that, and Istan became increasingly lonely..
Eventually, after all emotions faded.
I abandoned everything and lived only on the battlefield.
He did not return to the county and did not take care of his family. It became a monster that only moved for battle like a golem..
Then I received a series of news.
The news that Himel was injured right away. I heard that it was also seriously injured, but Istan did not show any reaction..
‘You don't have to die anyway.’
Defeat is a good foundation for growth.
Rather, I felt a strange envy. Defeat was a very precious experience that he couldn't feel even if he wanted to..
‘however…….’
With the news that Himel was injured.
A significant report was delivered.
It is reported that the opponent who overpowered him broke the sword with his bare hands without a single wound..
It was even said that it moved so fast that even the spectators and referees could not perceive it..
Istan found interest here.
Because it was like the master's realm.
‘So I left the wire.’
He must have had a good justification for going to see his injured son, and he immediately announced his intention to visit Arsene Academy..
The day I arrived at the academy.
First, I went to see Himel. I hadn't seen him in years already, so I wanted to see how much he had grown..
‘and…….’
immediately disappointed.
At least I thought I would have stepped on the threshold of expert by now, but now it's because I've only knocked on the door of a senior knight..
Talent far less than expected.
But the disappointment is short-lived.
The moment he arrived at the fountain of magic and faced Ulan, Istan felt joy..
And finally I was sure.
That this savage is a master!
kaaaang!
With the sound of axes and swords clashing.
Istan's thoughts were shattered.
In a split second, he exchanged countless attacks with Uhlan. But the only ones moving are Ulan and himself..
The scenery outside the arena has not changed.
as if time has stopped.
‘master's realm.’
This means the range that the master can perceive and interfere with, and at the same time, it means the interval in which all powers can be fully developed..
So there is a saying.
While confronting the master, if at all chance you step inside the territory, the fight is already over..
‘but…….’
These words were limited to battles between Masters and those who were not. A story that does not apply to battles between masters.
Then the weapons collided once more..
Couduk! quadruple!
The cold air flowing from the magic sword swallowed the entire area around it. Soil, grass, and even uhlans were made to freeze at once.
But that's only for a while.
As Ulan wriggled, all the ice that covered him shattered. As if windows were shattered by a mighty roar.
Istan's eyebrows twitched..
‘This is no ordinary ice.’
It is magical ice that cannot melt even the sunlight that heats the desert. How did you break it all at once? I don't even use it?
“how did you break the ice?”
“You gave me strength.”
Ulan said it didn't matter.
It's a depressingly simple answer. At this, when Istan made a weak expression.
Awesome! quadruped!
The magic sword spewed cold air arbitrarily. As if his pride was damaged by the broken ice.
But I didn't intend to win twice.
wooooooooong!
with the sound of bursting the air.
Uhlan's ax split the ice in half.
In the process, Gula gobbled up all the magical energy that made up the ice..
and the result.
Gula is much bigger than before.
Now, the term hand ax is awkward. Istan's eyes flashed at this sight..
“It's no ordinary axe..”
“exactly. magic weapon.”
That's why I didn't pick it up in the first place..
We want to fight on equal terms as much as possible. Istan, who belatedly realized what Ulan meant, smiled silently..
like you like it.
and ran again.
Quadduk! kwaaaang!
A battle that becomes more and more intense.
Pitholes were dug here and there in the arena, and the flow of magical energy fluctuated like an explosion..
The situation became so dangerous that even a mistake could result in serious injury. But the smile on Istan's lips did not disappear..
‘It's worth coming this far.’
Every time you clash weapons with uhlans.
It felt like the feelings I had lost so far were being revived little by little. Now, crossing the line of death, Istan finally felt the feeling of being alive..
‘I hope it never ends.’
Vibration through the sword.
Feeling a sense of exhilaration that made his whole body tremble, Istan smiled with joy..
‘forever and ever!’
His sword became more and more ferocious..
This is Deorg's sword.
It is the strongest sword in the south that overwhelms the enemy by tearing and crushing it with the force of the path of defeat..
Wow! Bang! Quaang!
Every time the weapons collided, a loud explosion was heard. Not just a sound, but an actual explosion caused by the collision between the aura and the spirit..
A violent shock wave soon began..
quagga gaga gaga!
The arena as well as the outer forest were swept away by the shock wave and turned into a mess. Insane power that can turn a normal forest into ruins at once.
Fortunately, there were no casualties thanks to Dipplin's use of defense magic..
On the other hand, unlike the ruined surroundings,.
Ulan received Deorg's sword with a calm face. Like thinking about something. It's because his sword was somehow familiar..
some time after that.
figured out why.
‘It looks like Ybela's sword.’
Except for the momentum of defeat, it was strangely similar to the swordsman Ibella is currently using..
The moment I remembered this.
‘Alas, yes. now i get it.’
Ulan's eyes sharpened..
like realizing something.
‘It's a popular swordsmanship in the empire..’
It was a reasonable guess.
After all, they both came from the Empire..
Ulan immediately brushed off his thoughts. There's a reason I've finished guessing, but the real reason is that Istan's sword strikes have subsided..
“woo woo.”
Istan to catch your breath.
I would do just that. The sword attack wielded with the force of the sword consumed a lot of breath. He grinned, controlling his rapid breathing..
“solid. It feels like facing a shield.”
“Your sword was quite good too..”
Of course, it's not the future Ibella..
Still, after returning, he is by far the best among the opponents he has competed with. Then, Istan suddenly pursed his lips..
“Where the hell did you get that skill??”
This is a question I've always had.
Istan immediately spoke up..
“I've never heard of a battlefield fiercer than the southern front..”
“I guess right now.”
“what? what is that…….”
“You don't have to be impatient.”
The crimson eyes sank..
memories of past lives. The moment she recalled the battlefield fighting the abyss, Ulan twisted her mouth and smiled..
“You'll find out soon anyway.”
meaningful answer.
But Istan couldn't answer the question. It was because Ulan suddenly kicked off the ground and ran..
“now it's my turn.”
Ulan's pioneering like never before.
Istan immediately brushed off his thoughts. To get the ax of the barbarians he'll show you.
But this was his mistake. What Ulan was trying to show was something else, not an axe..
‘nine and a half steps.’
This is the realm of Istan.
It is the range he can perceive and the interval at which he can exercise absolute power. On the other hand, the territory of the uhlan was much wider than that..
up to twenty steps.
It is the result of the experience and skills of the past life. one more here. There is a skill that only seven warriors including Ulan know.
‘transcendent realm.’
a new area within a realm.
A momentary gap that can only be created by those who have gained special enlightenment through countless fights with equal or greater strength..
Attacks through this penetrate the boundaries of each domain and transcend even space..
‘but…….’
In return, a huge amount of spirit is consumed, as well as a considerable burden on the body..
Also, even at such a price, the transcendence realm possible at the level of the current uhlan is only half a step.
‘It doesn't matter though.’
It should be enough to let the lonely swordsman, who thinks he is standing at the end of the world, know that there is a landscape beyond that..
jerebuck!
So the moment I took half a step.
Ulan's strike, which transcended even time and space, rushed at Istan with fierce momentum..
Aaaaaaang!
with the sound of the ground digging.
Soon a huge pit was formed.
A haze of dust blocking the view. Uhlan swung her ax and cleared the dust in one fell swoop..
the scenery that came soon.
Ulan honestly admired.
“great.”
The place where the crimson eyes are headed is the other side.
At the edge right before falling into the pit, it was the figure of Istan, who had barely endured..
The moment the transcendent realm unfolds.
At the same time, the moment when Ulan's blow flew.
Istan stood firm like a stone statue and reacted belatedly to the attack. And barely twisted the sword to block the attack.
although I couldn't completely stop it..
Kwajik! patter!
And as a result, the magic sword cracked. Then it shattered like glass.
That wasn't all.
Istan, who had barely endured, vomited dark red blood. It is because the body absorbs the remaining shock from the sword breaking..
“whoops, whoops!”
irregularly beating heart. rough breathing.
Even his vision became hazy, but Istan did not fall. no, he couldn't be knocked down.
Because I still have questions.
So, while spitting out bubbles of blood, I managed to keep my words going..
“……just, that's it?”
“area within area.”
Immediately after answering in an insignificant tone.
Istan's expression changed strangely..
surprise, surprise, awe, etc..
Various emotions blossomed one after another, and before long he muttered with a smile of relief..
“is it. Also, beyond that, there was…….”
At the end of the increasingly blurry words.
Istan fell to his knees.
It's because all of his magic power was depleted while blocking Ulan's blow. Then he fell to the floor like a straw doll blown by a strong wind..
and at that moment.
The venue was enveloped in a desolate atmosphere..
A result no one expected. None of the three observers opened their mouths to the scenery that no one had seen before..
But the silence didn't last long.
“next.”
Uhlan's voice breaks the silence.
The place he looked at was the place where the three witnesses gathered.
Among them, I stared at Seoric, who was making a blank expression..
“you won't fight?”
“……what?”
Seoric came to his senses belatedly.
he asked with a strange face.
“Are you thinking of dealing with me too??”
“For some reason, my eyes want that.”
Eyes of one eager to fight.
At Ulan's words, Seoric smirked..
“thank you.”
A very hostile smile. As if the face that had been stern until now was a mask.
“Actually, I couldn't stand it from a while ago.”
Throwing away hesitation, he stormed into the arena..
an unexpected turn of events.
Berger, who belatedly grasped the situation, tried to dissuade him, but to no avail. In the first place, even if I endured until now, it was a miracle.
After an unplanned duel begins.
Wow! kwaaang!
Two more pits have been created.
It was the sound that signaled the end of the duel..
and that afternoon. Shocking news has been delivered that will turn the imperial military upside down..
Blind Sword, Istan el Deorg.
Thousand Sword, Theoric Al Gorfant.
Recently, the news that two giants called the southern and western first swords were defeated by barbarians designated as 'level 0 management targets', respectively..
This shocking news was reported not only to the military, but also to the upper ranks..
Where the noblest blood gathers.
Right up to the imperial palace.
