Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 900



900. [Western Front] – Application of Force (175)

***

Slurp… … !

Between the released spiral air currents, we soon encounter ice fragments rushing in like rain.

Raise the spear and concentrate your consciousness to the extreme.

Then, the change was fleeting.

“… … .”

Between the golden-colored vision, everything reflected in my eyes slows down.

The reverberation of the blooming spiral passed by my eyes,

I could also see the cold air of countless ice shards approaching me belatedly.

Just as my consciousness adjusted to the flow of time, I also understood that this phenomenon was Bicheonsuwol’s ‘omen phenomenon’.

This reality, which I could not originally encounter, is brought into the realm of ‘cognition’ by extremely slowing down the perceived time.

Whilick!

And then the window moves larger.

Just like I did with Eustea in the past.

However, I was strongly conscious of the spiral that had spread earlier through such movements.

‘If you can’t face everything with just one window.’

Based on the spirals I have largely solved, I also deal with spirals that are not windows.

… … !

And I was visible.

Among the several ice shards that came across through my window, I could see the ice shards rushing in as if they were digging into a void, being swept up in a spiral.

“… … .”

The corners of my eyes immediately frowned.

My head, or rather my consciousness itself, shook incompletely.

It was absurd.

Even I didn’t think that the reality I wanted was possible.

In this reality where it is not enough to fully concentrate your consciousness on a single window,

I was hoping to treat the spread spiral as if it were another window.

In addition, through such numerous spiral air currents, even other ice fragments are reversed and returned to the opponent.

And now.

miracle.

No, even if you call it a miracle, a reality that is difficult to dream of was unfolding before your eyes.

Pasasasasak… … !

My extremely focused consciousness was making that unreality a reality.

Whirririririk ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ!

Even the way to handle the spear is to rotate it as if it is completely blocking the frontal area, rather than just brushing past the ice shards. Then, the rotating spear blade encounters countless ice shards and returns them as is.

It was ‘application of power’.

Rather than cutting, swinging, or stabbing hard with the spear like before.

By rotating the window like a spiral that circulates infinitely, a completely different expression of power is created.

Damn it!

Crispy!

The countless ice shards are starting to offset the ice shards I returned by reversing them.

It’s completely different from yesterday.

I can definitely say that I thought we had created a result that could not even be compared.

Tight.

However, my awareness of swinging the spear while maintaining extreme concentration began to gradually strain.

It was natural.

The size of my consciousness was so enlarged that no matter how much I concentrated, its limits were clear.

‘But just a little… … .’

Please just a little more.

Even now, in one corner of my field of vision, I could see Anastasia’s gaze, which was close to astonishment.

And even for me, it was difficult for me to believe in this miracle I had created.

It was a reversal of power that even erased Bicheonsuwol’s weakness to wide-range attacks.

It has complete practicality, and I can be confident that I will deal with this power in the future.

however.

… … The burden of that force made no sense.

Arddeuk!

With the sound of teeth grinding, the hand rotating the spear is busy. And the spiral that spread through my consciousness rushed like a tempest along the rotating window.

In the meantime, even the ice fragments that try to penetrate my blind spot are reversed.

Five minutes in extreme concentration, like a string pulled taut.

… … Only 5 minutes passed.

Whilick!

The spinning window shifted as if out of my hand.

And as soon as he recognized it, he immediately threw the spear with all his might towards one side of the training ground.

As I looked at the spear rushing like light, I saw numerous ice shards crashing towards me.

‘transition!’

As I barely managed to move my body, I fell to my knees on the spot as if I had collapsed.

“Cough!”

Even though I was coughing loudly, I couldn’t breathe.

Bar… !

Both hands on the ground were shaking like crazy, and even my vision was greatly blurred.

“Sigh… … !”

When I let out my breath, my throat stung.

A strange physical sensation, as if the muscles of the whole body were stretched to their limit. And in the meantime, I didn’t even have time to come to my senses.

“Ugh… … ! Cough!”

Exhaling too,

Breathing again.

Each one is painful.

And in between, coughing continues to leak out.

Even though I was not in a serious condition where my body was broken and vomiting blood, my body could no longer endure it.

“… … ha.”

And then, suddenly, I heard a sigh from beside me, and without realizing it, my head turned blankly.

ㅡ!

A burst of blue light suddenly brought me to my senses, and my breathing, which had become a complete mess, finally began to calm down.

“Calm down, take a calm breath, and just focus on that for now.”

Her voice rang in my ears, and I had to follow her words without even being able to give a proper answer.

***

“ha… … ha… … .”

The sound of breathing gradually becoming more stable.

And I can see that my face, which was extremely red, is slowly subsiding.

Sreuk.

“… … .”

Anastasia, who was infusing mana with her hand carefully placed on Han Tiansheng’s back, just stared.

Han Cheon-seong looks like he’s about to collapse at any moment, but somehow manages to regain consciousness without ever collapsing. And before I knew it, it had already been over 30 minutes since I took a break to catch my breath.

It was said that the response afterward took longer than the training time.

“… … “Are you calming down now?”

“yes… … Okay, thank you.”

There is no strength in the answering voice either.

It seemed like he didn’t even have the slightest strength in his whole body, so I criticized him.

“… … “Relax completely and rest more, so that when you resume training, your body will be fully prepared.”

“Okay… “Yes.”

Even as I watched Han Cheon-seong struggle to answer, a sudden glimmer appeared in my eyes.

A spear blade that rotates almost quickly.

And a spiral air current like a storm blowing around.

At first, I thought it was not Bicheonsuwol, but a completely different power. That’s how different it was from yesterday.

However, I realized that the sight of my ice shard being turned and reversed made the same sense.

‘… This level of application is already possible.’

Even now, I couldn’t believe it.

It’s only been a few days since I realized my new power, following Eustea’s progress.

From noble mtl dot com

However, when you apply it, you can even see a change in power.

… … Normally it wouldn’t have been possible.

When you think about what a transcendent power a skill is, and how much power it can unleash that its original characteristics cannot express.

So skill was a power that was complete in itself.

Changing it is like twisting the completed power and reconstructing it again.

“… … ha.”

Even now, I could see Han Cheon-seong, barely breathing, clenching and opening his hands.

Anyone can see that he looks exhausted.

Even though he exerted his strength for only a few minutes, the consumption of his strength was extremely extreme.

But it made sense to me too.

“How do I feel about the power I displayed today…” … “Have you seen it?”

There was obvious tension in his eyes as he cautiously asked me.

“I saw potential.”

“… “It’s a possibility.”

He smiled faintly at my answer, which gave me a strange feeling, as if he was extremely transparent and ready to break at any moment.

Even now, we are crossing a dangerous border.

Before I could stop him, he tried to stop his spear himself.

It was just a moment.

“… … .’

Even though we made eye contact, I didn’t like it.

That he smiles at me like that.

He felt that he was in extreme danger and stopped his spear like this in order to survive.

For a moment, looking at Han Tiansheng, I couldn’t think of anything to say.

‘What the hell is this guy…? … .’

What happened to my mental structure?

Just such thoughts filled my mind.

Every day that he begins to spend with me, he faces his limits and overworks himself to the extreme. He goes beyond the harsh intensity of my training and brings danger to himself.

Even now, you will be more aware of the risks you took.

But he keeps smiling.

And that too in front of my eyes,

He was smiling so transparently, knowing clearly what an absurd risk he was willing to take.

As if he was satisfied… … .

“I think the plot of Bicheonsuwol should be limited to 30 seconds at best. “In the case of ranged attacks like now, unless it is unavoidable, you should choose to avoid it altogether.”

“I know.”

Even without me telling him, he thinks of the answer to what he should do.

Even though I was so tired, my head was spinning at an extraordinary rate.

“… … Yes, that’s because I overdid it and ran into it.”

And the successive answers felt a bit scandalous to me.

“I understand that you want to use this power in an emergency or to catch someone off guard. And I admit it’s worth it. however… … “Now let’s stop here.”

He nods his head slightly, finally not denying what I say.

“Bicheon Suwol will stop here. to be honest… … “I also have a hard time consciously handling this power.”

“That’s right, because you’re looking at reality with extreme concentration, splitting every second.”

“Is that something you can tell just by looking at it?”

When I blinked blankly and asked, I sighed again.

“… … “While you are extremely focused, do you think I won’t be able to concentrate?”

“Ahaha, that’s true too.”

He smiled awkwardly and understood what I meant, but now Han Tiansheng was not the only one walking on the tip of a sword.

I was also concentrating my consciousness with the same intensity, moment by moment, wondering when my power would lead to Han Tiansheng’s death.

The border of consciousness that can almost be called hyper-concentration.

It deals with such minute gaps in time that one second feels like 10 seconds.

I know that Han Tiansheng also displayed strength in that area, but I also felt quite tired when I encountered him.

A little while ago, I realized that Han Tiansheng was moving his body, but I had to stop my power by almost a piece of paper.

Because you have to control hundreds or thousands of falling ice fragments in less than a second.

“… … Major Anastasia. “I have a personal favor to ask.”

“ask?”

“Yes, please.”

I wondered what on earth he was trying to say with that suddenly serious voice.
