A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 480



Physical (3)

The difference between a duel and a life-threatening real battle is like the difference between heaven and earth. This is the belief of Yilong, the general of the Huan Empire.

Yilong is not from Changcheon, the capital of the Huan Empire, but is the son of a small farmer in a distant region.

Usually, most people of this origin would take over the family business, but the Huan Empire is also famous for its large population.

In other words, it means that he is destined to only do farming, let alone take over the family business. However, Yi-ryong refused that fate.

Rather than just doing boring farm work, I will become a monk and become successful. With this in mind, I left, holding a crude sword in my hand.

His parents tried to dissuade him, saying that it was dangerous and that he would have a hard time if he left home, but they could not stop his young temper.

[Are you alone?]

[If you don’t want to be hit, then give me everything you have.]

[No? One per nyang.]

And then they were all robbed by the bad guys. Yi-ryong’s first ordination ended with only bitter pain.

However, he did not give up as he rose to the rank of general in the military. Rather, he achieved great success through these large and small battles.

The beginning may be shabby, but the ending will be great. This dragon is a model of self-made success.

That’s why I keenly realized how important sparring is and how different real combat is from sparring.

‘You’re such an arrogant guy. It’s a completely different story when your life is at stake.’

There is a so-called winning percentage. For example, let’s say there is someone who has a 30% winning percentage in sparring.

If this happens, similar results are bound to come out in actual life-threatening combat, but surprisingly, there isn’t much difference.

You might wonder what it means to lose 7 out of 10 times, but conversely, it means you win 3 times.

To induce this, the situation may be steered in a favorable direction, or an unexpected variable may arise.

It is not the strong who survive, but the survivors who are strong. That is the reality and the history.

And the dragon has been through countless battles and even has a record of blocking the invasion of barbarians in the border area.

At least, I can be proud that my level of martial arts skills is not inferior to others. On top of that, I also have practical experience.

The determination to throw away what needs to be thrown away. The ability to turn a situation to your advantage. Even the ability to improvise to prepare for variables.

This explains why he is called the strongest general in the Huan Empire, and why he was able to start out as a commoner and become the commander of a country.

‘Even if you survive in the forest, the wild and civilization are completely different.’

Yi-ryong stroked his beard with a pretended unpleasant expression. He was currently riding in a carriage and returning to the palace.

The princess of the Hwan Empire, Dan Yerin, and her companion, Shivar, whom I had just met. Our meeting was intentional.

A kind of psychological warfare that puts pressure on someone to prevent them from doing something useless. But that psychological warfare went in a strange direction.

‘If only that guy hadn’t done something so weird······’

Yi-ryong knows very well what kind of person Dan-ye-rin is. Past traumas will hold her back and prevent her from making decisions at important moments.

The cause of that trauma is none other than the prince, the lord she serves. One of the people who resolved all political issues.

The reason why Yiryong is loyal to the prince who has the qualities of a tyrant is because he was on his side from the beginning.

That’s why I know Dan Ye-rin’s personality and various situations in detail.

‘We should consider that his overall physical abilities are amazing.’

A series of defeats at rock-paper-scissors. Those defeats scratched Yi-ryong’s pride.

But at the same time, I thought it was foolish. If you think about it, Sivara had already shown his weakness.

Since we already knew in advance what could be considered a variable, we cannot call it a variable. We have already stored it in our heads.

Besides, Shivar is a person who has caused various incidents and accidents at the academy. Naturally, all kinds of rumors are bound to spread.

‘You have to be careful about using red lightning.’

To use lightning is to be a Gulag believer, and a very favored one at that.

I don’t know why the color of the lightning is red, but that alone is enough to make me interested.

‘There was a lot of talk that the force itself was excellent, but the technique was lacking.’

It’s a phrase that always follows me. It’s about a lack of skill.

There is a saying that overwhelming power requires no skill, but that only applies to ‘overwhelming power’.

I don’t think the difference will be that big. If it were, I would have won against Hector, the King of Destruction.

Even though Hector declared defeat first, I thought it was only a ‘taste’.

‘By the way, Princess Dan Ye-rin is pitiful. Why would she trust such a worthless person?’

Yi-ryong stroked his beard and clicked his tongue inwardly. He also knew a little about Dan-ye-rin’s past.

He aspired to become the emperor according to his dead mother’s will, but the crown prince blocked everything.

Beyond simply blocking it, it goes so far as to cut off all its limbs in a political sense.

The most impressive part was when Dan Ye-rin’s favorite bodyguard’s head was blown off right before her eyes.

‘I heard that you basically took on the role of father. It’s kind of sad.’

Dan Ye-rin has no ill will towards him. Yi-ryong just does his job silently.

He also felt sorry for her situation. It means that even if the prince is crazy, he is crazy as hell.

But if the prince was truly a madman, he wouldn’t have followed. He’s just cruel, but his other abilities are excellent.

No matter how much of a tyrant you may have, as long as you bring trouble to the royal family, it doesn’t matter. For the people, the most important thing is to eat and live.

If I had to choose between a king with a great character but who is incompetent, and a tyrant king who makes his people live well, I would overwhelmingly choose the latter.

That is the state, that is politics, that is reality. The prince has the qualities to lead the Huan Empire to a peaceful era.

‘After I deal with that guy who is worse than that savage… Princess Dan Ye-rin will die too.’

The dragon had a bitter smile on his face. He was already looking forward to the next day.

Although it is regrettable that we may lose such a great talent, they showed their teeth first.

If you tread on a special seedling carefully, there will be no later trouble. Especially if that seedling becomes a huge threat to you in the future.

‘I’m looking forward to it. I wonder how long that confidence will last.’

The dragon leisurely returned to the palace, waiting for the next day to arrive.

*****

The dragon I met at Namgung Se-ga. As I expected, he was a person with great self-esteem and pride.

A general who is praised as an icon of self-made success and the best warrior in the Huan Empire. Just looking at this should give you a rough idea of ​​what he is like.

Of course, sooner or later, there’s nothing left for me to do but get beaten up. No matter how strong you are, it’s meaningless if you can’t get through my sturdy body.

It’s not just Hector, but Porori as well that is the standard for dealing significant damage to me.

Even these are users of the lightning ability, one of the evil abilities. On the other hand, the dragon has nothing.

On the other hand, it is a drone that focuses on ‘power’, which can be said to be the worst compatibility. Of course, I am from that side.

‘Should I just beat him up enough to recover just in case?’

The probability of the assassination of the crown prince is also low. If this happens, the future will be easier if the dragon is neutralized first.

The rebels would feel relieved if they were beaten to the point where they had to recuperate for at least a month.

Even if that’s not the case, it’s a good idea to retire Yiryong at this time.

That way, in the future, we will be able to establish Ui-ryong as a pillar and firmly support the country.

The most powerful and simple means of maintaining a nation is the military. So I plan to avoid killing as much as possible.

“That······ Shivar? Can you come for a moment?”

“why?”

“It’s an important story, so it’s difficult to talk about it here.”

By the time we had settled down for dinner, Marlboro had cautiously called me over to the buffet restaurant in the hotel.

I thought I knew what was going on, but I had to pretend not to know and just follow him. I followed him with a questioning face.

Finally, we arrived at the empty break room. Marlboro looked around, sighed deeply, and spoke to me.

“Did you get into any trouble again?”

“······yes?”

Marlboro said that as soon as he saw me. I was the one who was embarrassed.

I thought it was because I was called by the palace, but I guess not.

While I was blinking, Marlboro washed his face dry and explained it step by step.

“You have been formally invited to the Imperial Palace of the Hwan Empire. No, rather than an invitation… it seems like they are calling a witness.”

“Are you a witness?”

“Yeah. Have you had any fights with anyone recently?”

“That’s never happened······”

From noble mtl dot com

No. There was something. I had a meal at a guest house with Kara.

This was an incident where a typical chaos in the martial arts world occurred, but I was able to overcome it without any problems thanks to my appropriate response.

If that’s what you’re talking about, then I have nothing to say. Marlboro sighed as I just rolled my eyes.

“Ahh… I don’t know much about the Hwan Empire either, so I won’t ask what’s going on. It seems like someone connected to the palace was involved in that fight. The government doesn’t really intervene.”

“··· ···”

“Anyway, someone is coming tomorrow, so get ready. Yerin is also coming as a reference, so you should know that.”

“yes.”

Malbork looked at me intently after hearing my answer and asked in a questioning voice.

“You really didn’t have an accident, did you?”

“I spilled my rice while I was eating.”

“With just that?”

“Human hands were added as a topping.”

“··· ···”

Then he patted my shoulder without saying anything and left. It was a gesture of understanding.

Anyway, it wasn’t that surprising since it was something I expected. Dan Ye-rin probably heard similar news.

So as the day went by and I prepared to head to the palace, I realized belatedly that I had another companion.

“······Lize?”

“Hello, Brother Shivar.”

“Are you going to Lize too?”

That person is none other than the saint, Lize. In the place that Marlboro had told her about, not only Dan Ye-rin but also Lize was there.

Dan Ye-rin also looked quite flustered, as if she had not expected Lee Jae’s company at all.

“You too…were you invited by the palace?”

“No. I’m going because I have some business to attend to.”

“That’s possible······”

Dan Ye-rin was about to say if it was possible, but stopped herself. That would be the case, because who is Lize?

She is the only being who has two titles related to stars, being both a ‘Saint’ and a ‘Powerful’.

“Usually when I go, everyone welcomes me.”

“··· ···”

It sounded really cool that no one could refute it.
