Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 605



605. End of the game – strong will to continue

***

A half-melted sword body spouting blue flames.

As the spear blade suddenly disappeared, the powerfully burning blue flame also disappeared.

To steady his staggering body, he forced his sword down to the ground.

Coo!

Although he barely managed to avoid falling, Leonhard let out a laugh that was almost nihilistic for a moment.

‘Now I’m completely at my limit.’

Apart from the fact that I had gained so much strength, my whole body did not have any strength at all.

The body is completely limited. That was also the limit.

The hand holding the sword felt like every joint was going to break, and I didn’t have the strength to lift the sword again.

My body was so devastated that it could not even be compared to the vision that had become infinitely transparent.

And I saw it in there.

Han Cheon-seong’s eyes looked down at me as he suddenly retrieved his spear.

The eyes were still engulfed in golden mystery, and the golden spear blade, spreading its brilliant presence, was still alive and well.

‘I have the energy.’

It was different even for me, who was completely limited.

And perhaps it is because I am smiling now, as I look at Han Cheon-seong, who bursts into laughter, my heart is now slowly acknowledging and accepting it.

No, I have been acknowledging Han Cheon-seong for quite some time.

His overwhelming growth always seemed dazzling and brilliant, to the point that I naturally thought I should follow Han Tiansheng’s path.

So now, I was able to open my mouth relatively lightly.

“… “I lost.”

Even though I admitted defeat, my heart was very pure.

As the blue sky exists in my heart, I knew the value of enlightened power. That alone was a great harvest.

“The intense match between the two cadets has finally come to an end! The winner of the match is Han Tiansheng!”

I slowly lowered my head as the host’s voice chanted for the winner.

“ha… … .”

Even though I wanted to raise my sword and face the spear again, I accepted reality.

It was just ugly to be reckless and show off any more.

Sreuk.

When I finally relaxed my grip, I saw the sword leaving my hand fall towards the ground very slowly.

“… … .”

The handle, stained bright red with the blood flowing from the torn grip, was strangely impressive.

Clink!

As the half-melted sword body rolled on the ground and made a sound, I just bent my knees.

Even as I breathed out in a daze, my mind felt surprisingly relaxed. Now I felt like everything that was so heavy on my heart had disappeared.

It felt like I had let go of everything.

‘Because it’s all over.’

In the end, I failed to live up to the expectations of Loriant’s vassal.

The result of the match was a loss, and I was eliminated in the quarterfinals.

Knowing that this was a reality that could not be denied at all, my heart was filled with feeling sorry for my vassals.

‘Everyone encouraged me a lot.’

Since the vassals were all good people, I felt even more strongly that I had failed to live up to their expectations.

Amidst a lighter heart, a slightly painful heart.

Jerk.

Then, I lifted my head in a daze at the sound of footsteps.

“Leonhardt, you were truly amazing.”

“… … “Han Cheon-seong.”

Even though I answered blankly, I could see it in my field of vision.

A face with a refreshing smile. And the hand held out strongly towards me.

Suddenly.

When I carefully held his hand, Han Tiansheng immediately pulled me up.

“Ugh!”

And at that moment, I gasped in pain.

“Oh sorry. Leonhardt. “Your body must not be normal right now.”

Apologize as if you know my condition. Even though it was really hard, I managed to answer with a smile.

“no, that’s fine.”

Because I know that I didn’t act with the slightest malicious intent.

And as I faced Han Cheon-seong, who had returned to his original state after releasing the opening, I also accepted it with peace of mind.

It was disappointing that the result of the game was disappointing, but reality was reality.

‘Let’s admit defeat.’

I accepted it coolly, as if I had completely let go of my feelings.

Now I can’t reach Han Tiansheng. Even though I had acquired a skill with enormous power called ‘Changcheon Oil Painting’ a little while ago, it was not enough.

Then, I was able to acknowledge Han Cheon-seong more.

It’s not a wall I can’t overcome, but a person I’m thankful for who shows me the path I need to take.

“Then I’ll take you to the healer right away. Oh, no. “There’s no need for me to do that.”

While I was trying to accept Han Tiansheng’s favor, I found out later when the words changed.

Grumbling… !

Red hair that reminds me of ruby ​​brightens the air. And inside, I saw Yumia running towards me with a face that looked like she was about to shed tears at any moment.

“Leonhardt!!”

As he shouted loudly and reached in front of me at once, I steeled myself and opened my mouth.

“… … “Uh, Yumia.”

I felt like if I let my guard down even a little, I would scream in pain, but I didn’t want to show that in front of Yumia.

“are you okay!? No, really… I think you did very well. “I hope you think about your body.”

When he accepted me as if robbing Han Tiansheng with a voice full of worry, I smiled slightly and shook my head.

“Don’t worry so much. “There are no serious injuries.”

My body just felt a little… creaky.

It was obvious that it would be very difficult to move for a while, but there were definitely no serious injuries.

“still! Really, anyway, it’s okay, let’s go get treatment quickly.”

As Yumia, who carefully changed her posture so that I could lean on her, walked slowly, I naturally accepted her favor.

Still, he slowly turned his head.

There was Han Cheon-seong, staring at me with a bright expression.

“Be sure to win.”

I spoke with a bit of seriousness.

This Grand Colosseum.

Even though it was a huge honor that I could not achieve… … .

I wanted Han Tiansheng, who defeated me, to win.

“don’t worry. “I will definitely win.”

And when he responded to my words with a firm, confident voice, I smiled and nodded.

“Really, Leonhard. How can you say something like that so naturally when you look at Han Tiansheng?”

Yumia, who asked innocently, seemed quite displeased with Han Tiansheng who won me, but I sincerely hoped that Han Tiansheng would win this Grand Colosseum more than anyone else.

“Because it really deserves recognition. “I think Han Tiansheng is the most respectable person in my life, next to my teacher.”

And inadvertently, my inner feelings leaked out.

“… … Even respect?”

I nodded blankly at Yumia’s surprised voice.

Well, I had no choice but to do that.

Even in the midst of a crisis worse than mine, an extreme crisis of having to face the apostle over and over again, Han Tiansheng was shining like that.

He sticks to his beliefs without hesitation in any situation.

Even though he was overwhelmingly ahead of other cadets and possessed great power, he was not conceited or looked down on anyone.

That was a mindset that was possible because Han Cheon-seong’s mindset was at a higher level than the uprightness I had gained through years of training my mind.

Regardless of his strength, even just in terms of his attitude, Han Tiansheng had to be seen as superior to me.

‘and.’

More than that, I received so much from him.

There are so many things that can’t really be put into value… … .

“Because I received so many things from Han Tiansheng.”

Because of Han Tian-seong, I was able to correct my mind even at the worst moment when I lost my characteristics. And after that, I was able to find a straight path for myself.

At that time, I leaned on Yumia and received a lot of comfort, but it was clear that I also received great help from Han Cheonseong.

“I don’t know. Did Han Tiansheng really help you so much that you could say that? … . That’s what I felt while watching the game. If the opponent wasn’t Han Tiansheng… . “You must have climbed to a higher place.”

When Yumia didn’t hide the regret in her heart at all, I started laughing without even realizing it.

“That’s just an if. Because I met Han Cheon-seong, I was able to have such a strong will. “I have no intention of blaming Daejin.”

I was extremely grateful for Yumia’s loving heart for me.

Yet my heart was just pure.

I’m not upset even though I lost.

On the contrary, it was even a little enjoyable to see how great the power this guy had.

“Yumia, I’m actually looking forward to Han Tiansheng now.”

“expectation?”

“The power that Han Tiansheng will show is not the same as the power he showed when dealing with me just a moment ago.”

power.

At first, I thought Han Tiansheng showed me his full strength.

When he pushed me so hard and completely overwhelmed me, I couldn’t believe it wasn’t his full power.

But it wasn’t until the last minute of the game that I found out.

A golden spear that faced my sword and spiraled endlessly. The appearance of Han Cheon-seong, who suddenly retrieved it. It definitely had some power left.

It was said that it was not power in the true sense.

“No way, Han Tiansheng is more… … “Can you become stronger?”

From noble mtl dot come

When Yumia asked in disbelief, I slowly nodded.

“There is definitely one more way.”

A move that Han Tian-seong did not show, which even I, who had learned the skill called Chang Tian Yu-hwa, could not bring out.

I was thinking that this was close to the essence of the enormous power that Han Tiansheng had achieved.

“… … Nonsense.”

I just smiled faintly as I looked at Yumia shaking her head and denying what I said.

Even if I were to say more, people who have not experienced Han Tiansheng’s power would probably not understand.

It is clear that there is still endless potential in Han Tiansheng’s body.

Even with all the power he showed me, Han Cheon-seong still had power.

Again. That… … .

As I walked, relying on Yumia, a person suddenly came to mind.

‘Azazel Shineleaf.’

I wonder if it might be possible for her.

The 7th level attribute is still an unknown level for me. If she is, she might be able to bring out her full power against Han Tiansheng… … .

With that thought, my consciousness disappeared.
