I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 11

11fury

In fact, in a place like this, the problem is after it rises..

You need to choose your landing point carefully..

So, while I was hanging on the rock wall, I looked for a place in advance..

I soared into the air, landed in a place I had planned, and then ran straight away..

Kurrrrr.……!

The cliff path shook due to the impact of the landing, and soon began to collapse..

This means that it was a dangerous path from the beginning..

“collapses!”

“Run, run!”

Only then did the rest of the guys follow me after realizing what I had just said and the situation..

No need to look back.

I immediately felt the road I was running on collapsing..

It's not a landslide, but it's not that small either..

If you get swept away, you literally won't be able to recover a single bone..

I could feel people coming close behind me..

He looks somewhat frustrated..

“Can't you run a little faster?!”

“huh. this is the maximum speed.”

“Pfft…….”

Seeing the knights overcome with impatience somehow made me feel cheerful..

Even though I was out of breath, I burst out laughing and ran, with the knights and Arjan running after me..

We raced like crazy until we completely left the cliff road..

Each attribute has different pros and cons..

For example, the forest greening technique mastered by the great master is the simplest martial art and is characterized by its linearity..

It means that, like a giant tree growing straight up, the greatest effect is achieved when you cut off the twigs and focus on just one thing..

So, in the grand scheme of things, there is only one martial art that the great master has learned..

In addition, the rock metal magic technique practiced by the second sister-in-law and the Manbyeongeumgang technique practiced by the fourth sister-in-law also have their own characteristics..

So what is the greatest strength of Cheonhwa Jeilgong that I learned?.

It's resilience.

You may ask what is the relationship between flame and recovery, but since ancient times, flame has also symbolized life and rebirth or something..

In any case, just learning this new skill greatly increases your physical recovery, and this recovery does not simply refer to the regeneration of wounds..

The biggest effect is seen in physical training, and because it maximizes metabolism, overworked muscles regenerate very quickly..

In short, this means that the time it takes to create a body can be drastically shortened..

This is also the reason why I went hiking without using my strength..

Of course, it is not without drawbacks..

First, the pain felt in the body is beyond imagination..

It's better when I'm moving, but when I'm resting, my whole body hurts as if it's being torn apart due to the side effects of ultra-fast recovery..

And secondly, the amount of food.

“Give me more food.”

I scratched my head and held out the tray to Osel..

“…I think you've eaten enough.”

“You need to eat a lot because you are growing up..”

“Food should be conserved as much as possible.”

“why. If it doesn't work out, you can at least eat a wild animal..”

Osel sighed at my words..

“… Master, we are knights, not hunters. Do you know how easy it is to hunt animals there? In some ways, it's much trickier than killing monsters..”

“…….”

Even though this guy's way of speaking is harsh, it's not actually wrong..

Hunting animals in the mountains is not easy..

Plus, this is a mountain range full of monsters.

The animals that live there are probably much smarter and more perceptive than other creatures..

‘If I can't decide, should I at least pick some fruit and eat it?.’

That's a bit.

Meat is essential to replenish energy..

Looking at Osel's attitude, it doesn't look like he'll just give me food..

I regretfully took out some beef jerky from my pocket, chewed it, and said,.

“Anyway, I heard monsters appear at the beginning, so it's quieter than I thought..”

Arjan, who was standing next to him, nodded and agreed..

“okay. Maybe you can pass by without encountering a single person..”

“oh.”

If you say something like that-.

Whoa whoa!

Suddenly, a monster appeared ahead, cutting through the bushes..

* * *

The obstacles you encounter most while working as a mercenary are not people but monsters..

Of course, I also fought various monsters during my years as a mercenary..

Those who appear before my eyes are no exception..

Goofy looking face and primitive outfit.

Synonym for regenerative power.

A monster called a relatively high-ranking species among Green Skins..

troll.

There were a total of five trolls that appeared, and after encountering these monsters, I realized for the first time why the Jewel Mountains were banned..

‘It's big.’

It's not appropriate to apply the expression "average" to monsters, but trolls usually don't exceed 3 meters in size..

But these guys seem to be at least 1.5 times bigger than the trolls I used to know..

If we take the standard of 1.5 meters and 3 meters, this means that their size is close to 4 to 5 meters, which is equivalent to a monster the size of a house walking around..

“ready for battle!”

The moment Osel shouted in a loud voice, the knights quickly lined up..

Whoa whoa!

The trolls seem to have sensed this speculation and are making a reckless attack..

‘I also want to fight at least one guy myself..’

Even though there is quite a bit of physical fatigue, I think there will be no problem for at least one person..

I've been itching to use Hundred Eclipse in actual combat, but I don't think Arjan, let alone the knights, will allow it..

So first, let’s watch this fight with interest..

This is an opportunity to truly observe the skills of the renowned Fang Knights..

Partschut!

Blue sword energy rose from the knights' swords..

Those commonly called knights are all mana blades that can be wielded..

However, the deep color of the shimmering blue flame shows their level..

In general, the higher the density of mana, the more transparent it appears visually..

“Avoid unnecessary attacks! Must be finished on the first attack!”

I was a little surprised by Osel’s instructions..

Killing a troll with one hit is quite tricky..

Of course, since it is a higher species of monster, its skin is thick and its bones are also strong. Needless to say, the regenerative power hurts my mouth..

But tricky doesn't mean impossible..

The brain and heart are common weak points of living organisms..

No matter how much a troll is, if those two parts are damaged, there is no answer..

In short, Osel's instructions were difficult but accurate..

‘however…….’

Apart from these precise instructions, I discovered some loose ends in the knights' ranks..

Was the battle so intense that they didn't realize it??

At this time, one troll forced his body into the weak spot and eventually collapsed the battle line..

“Oops!”

“be careful!”

Amid the puzzled voices of the knights, a troll could be seen running screaming..

At the same time, something fast passed by from the side..

pot!

Then there was a blinding flash of light, and the troll's movement stopped..

The troll's appearance seemed unchanged at first glance, but I could see a small hole near its uvula..

“That's right…….”

There was bloody phlegm in my throat..

When I looked to the side, Arjan suddenly had a thin dagger in his hand..

“Butler, you're great.?”

“That's too much praise..”

I wasn't being sarcastic, I was purely admiring, but seeing Arjan retract his dagger right away made me nag..

“But it seems like your experience is biased towards interpersonal combat..”

“yes?”

“Trolls don't die like that..”

Sooooo!

When the troll jumped up and charged again, I turned the ring on my middle finger once..

The ring sword, an artifact brought from the mansion..

A faint halo of light appears from the ring, and its appearance changes into a sword with a neat design..

He took a big step forward and plunged the blade into the scar that Arjan had made earlier in the troll's throat..

Whoops, the troll's throat was clogged and blood poured out. The eyes that looked at me turned blood-colored and immediately shed bloody tears..

thud-.

Since the same vital point was attacked twice, even the most persistent person would not have the courage to withstand it..

Trolls are monsters that cannot let their guard down in many ways..

Considering the fact that this monster was a mutant, I finished the job by stabbing the blade into its vital points several times..

By the time I wiped the blood from my face, the knights' battle was slowly coming to an end..

“young master?”

Belatedly, Osel came running towards me..

I looked at his face for a moment without responding..

I can't find any sense of discomfort in his urgent expression and attitude as if he is worried about me..

“-ah.”

At this moment, I remembered the incident on the cliff road..

road suddenly collapsed.

Even though I was exhausted, I wasn't enough to miss the weakened ground..

It wouldn't be surprising if Arjan, who was walking in front from the beginning, missed me, but the knights behind me?

They must have seen me stumbling, and they weren't that far away..

If I had made up my mind to do that, wouldn't I have been able to catch it before I fell?.

Of course, it was too vague to be sure, so I put it on hold for now. Maybe I'm thinking too much.

But a similar coincidence occurred again..

The gap that just appeared in the battle line.

It's a low-level loophole that doesn't match the quick movements shown by the knights..

As I said, I have an annoying habit..

Always assume the worst case scenario.

At this moment, I remembered someone's face with a budding doubt..

Not only psychological warfare, but also all kinds of schemes, tricks, and maneuvers... … . Anyway, the fourth executioner was an expert in mud fighting..

There was something that the fourth executioner often said..

‘Treat your friends with a smile, and treat your enemies with a deeper smile..’

“Are you okay??”

Osel approached just then and asked in a puzzled voice..

I smiled as my brother-in-law advised..

“I'm fine.”
