Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 568



568. First game at the Grand Colosseum

***

next day.

In the early morning hours, the Grand Colosseum stadium was filled with many people.

It was the time of the long-awaited first match, and the protagonist of the first match was also one of the cadets who attracted the most attention, so expectations were even higher.

From noble mtl dot come

And right before the first game.

Jerk.

As a man slowly walked into the solidly prepared stadium, the mere sight of him caused huge enthusiastic cheers to erupt from the audience.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡ!!

When the huge cheers were heard by the man in the stadium, he slowly raised his head and looked at the crowd filling the Colosseum.

The stage arena inevitably cannot be higher than the audience seats filling up all sides. That’s why he had to look up at the Colosseum that was filling up everywhere, but even so, the man looked around calmly.

Relatively rare black hair.

Yet, his calm face had an appearance that could be said to be special.

The representative cadet of the Central Academy and one of the cadets who caused the most buzz yesterday.

Han Cheon-seong.

It was him.

“……”

Even though I took a deep breath, a strange laugh escaped me.

As it was my first game, I was not completely nervous. Still, his strange excitement and anticipation felt even greater.

There are probably tens of thousands of people looking at me.

And their enthusiastic shouts and gazes filled with interest and curiosity made me feel something strange rather than burdensome.

Sreuk.

Even though the spear I was gently holding was straining, laughter kept leaking out.

Although I was nervous, I didn’t hate this atmosphere.

Now that I was hot and had everyone’s eyes on me, I actually had a strong desire to play the game quickly.

Jerk.

And when the other cadet started coming up from the other side, I just stood there and stared.

The name of my opponent in the material is Demil Thurn.

“Whoa… .”

Even as I looked at the cadet staring at me with a loud sigh, I gathered my composure.

‘Don’t let your guard down.’

Since it was our first match, I thought we should face it more sincerely.

No matter how much of an objective advantage I have in terms of strength, I should not approach the game lightly.

“Grand Colosseum! A noble and glorious duel between cadets with the most brilliant light is about to begin! Before we start, let me say something to everyone at the Colosseum! “I earnestly ask the cadets who are competing in the hottest game to remember their honor and position, and the spectators to not forget their elegance and courtesy while watching the game!”

With the host’s powerful voice, the heated cheers subsided immediately.

The host took a look at me and the opposing player who was standing in my seat before, smiled and continued his next words.

“Then let us begin our great journey to endless glory! “Starting from the cadet on the left, please tell us your name, academy you are from, and characteristics!”

When I heard my name called, I calmly opened my mouth.

“Han Cheon-seong, a member of the Central Academy, is a common grade and has the level 6 ‘Spearmastery’ trait.”

As soon as I finished introducing myself with a strong voice, the cadet across from me spoke up.

“Demil Thurne. He belongs to the Eastern Academy and possesses a unique level 4 current discharge…”

His voice was noticeably trembling as he spoke.

Even though he was facing me, he seemed to have some kind of fear.

“Now, everything is ready. “Both cadets, for their own honor!”

As the host immediately left the room with his unique comment announcing the start of the game, I looked straight ahead.

‘I want to give up the ball first.’

Along with the thought of not letting down my guard, I still wanted to respect the other cadet.

Rather than vaguely seeing the opponent as below me and trampling them with my strength, I wanted to look at the opponent as an ‘equal’ so that he could reveal the power he had built up.

Chichichik!

And as if my thoughts were correct, I saw Demil emitting electric current all over his body.

He looked as if blue lightning was covering his whole body, but his eyes were still shaking.

“……”

I could tell he was afraid just by looking at his eyes. However, seeing as he was trying to exert some kind of power towards me, I lifted the spear I was holding and aimed it at him.

Slurp… !

The spiral airflow rising along the red spear blade of Drakaris began to emit a clear presence.

‘I’m looking forward to it.’

The opponent is showing a completely different strength, but even so, I was planning to confront him head-on.

That’s what it meant to me to respect a cadet whose objective power was significantly lower than mine, while still looking at him as an equal.

-Do not avoid the force, but face it head on.

Rather than making the other person feel helpless and unable to do anything. You must have put in a lot of effort to compete at the Colosseum.

“Ugh!!”

I saw it rushing towards me at a fairly high speed with a strange sense of coordination.

Without any additional armament, I just stretched out my hand, which was engulfed in a huge electric current, and it seemed like a lightning bolt was rushing at me all at once.

There were two things I felt while watching that.

‘Discharge of electric current, additional hand-to-hand combat.’

Electric current rushing primarily through the outstretched hand.

And he even threatened me further by throwing his body engulfed in electricity at me without stopping.

A linked attack that seems to perform two attacks at once.

Sreuk!

In response, I twisted the spear I was aiming at and quickly hurled it towards the front.

Clap la la la rock!

A huge wind like a storm that burst through Changsin completely swept away the path of the initially rushing current.

“…!”

I stopped the window as I looked at the cadet who had stopped, as if he had not expected an electric current to flow like this.

Just as he rushed towards me, I also hurled the blade of my spear at him.

That’s why it was so close.

Tuk.

And the red spear blade clearly existed in between.

Just before reaching the shoulder of the cadet who was trying to reach me. The sharp blue blade of the spear was emitting a cold light.

gulp.

“…”

Those eyes staring at the cold spear blade were constantly trembling.

The opponent will also know that he could have stabbed a vital point such as the heart or head at any time.

I deliberately twisted the trajectory of the spear blade at the end and aimed it at the shoulder instead of the heart… .

Chichik.

As I watched the electric current surrounding his whole body fade away in an instant, I didn’t want to hurt him.

“I lost.”

“It was a good game.”

I responded lightly and slowly lowered the window.

“The winner of the match is Han Cheon-seong of Central Academy!”

It felt like my ears were ringing for a moment as the host’s voice rang so powerfully.

ㅡWow!

Huge cheers echoing from all directions.

And, amid the simultaneous gazes, I looked blankly at my surroundings.

Among them, there are countless spectators who chant me or just look at me with cheers.

I really didn’t feel the slightest bit of pressure from their numerous gazes or that my movements were heavier than usual due to tension.

rather… .

I stood in this arena with a more transparent spirit.

‘I’m glad.’

It felt like I was proving my existence in front of so many people, and my heart felt more excited than ever.

***

Choi Sang-seok in the Colosseum.

It was a space where even high-ranking nobles could not enter, and it was so extravagant that it felt like extreme luxury.

This was because it was the space where the imperial family visited the Colosseum.

“Han Tiansheng.”

And when one of them, a man watching the game, opened his mouth, the surrounding royal family also looked at Han Tiansheng in the center of the stadium with eyes full of interest.

It’s vague yet relaxed.

It also showed a unique spirit that did not seem at all intimidating even under the gaze of countless people.

It implied something more than the content of the game that was immediately played.

The royal family was paying attention to that more than anything else.

“The author said he was the most noteworthy talent at this year’s Central Academy.”

“It’s just as I heard.”

“It’s amazing. “Are you saying that attribute levels really don’t mean much?”

“I guess the difference in level is that big.”

As words passed between the various royal families, their interest in Han Cheonseong was quite large.

Although he was a commoner, he possessed great talent.

Yet there is nothing arrogant or presumptuous about it.

On the contrary, Han Cheon-seong had a strange atmosphere that made him feel relaxed and uncharacteristic of commoners while maintaining good manners even in the eyes of the royal family.

“…”

And among the royal family, there was a woman smiling softly.

Her blonde hair was so bright that it brightened up the surrounding space, and her beauty stood out especially compared to other members of the royal family in the same space.

Rachel Luabella.

She was one of the members of the royal family who was quite high in the line of succession to the throne, and she was also a woman who already had a close relationship with Han Tiansheng.

‘His value will continue to rise in the future.’

I knew that the imperial family had been paying attention to Han Tiansheng for quite some time.

However, this was not the case when several members of the royal family took direct action. Everyone was interested in the fact that he was a commoner and his trait level was common, but there were some things that made it difficult to contact him.

In fact, I was like that too, except for the first time I met my brother.

If I were to ask if there was something I needed to contact, it would be because my position as the princess was at stake.

But now everything was different.

The more he grew and overcame various crises, the more I thought of his name.

That’s why I walked all the way to the Magic Tower to meet in person, and after making contact, we formed a relationship of some kind.

He was the man I chose, and his remarkable growth seemed to have no end.

“Rachel, are you that happy?”

At the sound of a voice from nearby, my eyes turned to Pick’s side.

The eyes, which had the same blonde texture as mine, and were staring at me with a strange look, gave me a strong feeling of strength.

Even as I looked at my brother who was disapproving of me having contact with Han Tiansheng, my heart did not waver even a bit.

“then. “He is the man I chose.”

“under… .”

Even as I saw him laughing, I focused my eyes on Han Tiansheng again.

Then, naturally, my heart beat faster.

‘I want it.’

Is it because he rejected me?

Strangely, my feelings for him grew bigger.
