The Immortal Genius Spearman (124)
“Huh?!”
“If it’s Duke Heinel Fremund… … then isn’t he the Auror Master?”
As Damien left, Diana and Kyle couldn’t hide their surprised expressions.
Jerka, who was next to him, was startled by Diana’s words.
“Oh, Auror Master? Are you saying that the Vice-Captain just went to see the Auror Master?”
I looked at Diana.
Diana asked Leonhark in front of him.
“Really?”
“That’s true. I got an invitation from Heinel.”
Because he was such a hot topic by his very existence, he was also famous for not meeting people unless absolutely necessary.
Of course, if it’s someone you acknowledge, it’s a different story.
In any case, the ripple effect of the three letters of the name Heinel was enormous.
“… … Do you know why the commander went to see him?”
“I don’t know that either. But… … .”
Leonhark recalled the look in Damian’s eyes when he mentioned Heinel.
His eyes seemed desperate for something.
What on earth is he trying to find out by meeting Heinel?
“… … Won’t you let me know when you get back?”
The other unit members nodded at those words.
Damien was the one who always moved when there was a clear reason.
Even if he had time, he wouldn’t be the kind of person who would leave his unit members without any reason.
“We’ll train as hard as we can until the commander returns. We can’t afford to look like we’re in a mess.”
“All right.”
“Don’t worry. I’m working my butt off.”
Diana nodded at Jerka and Kyle’s answers. And… … .
“Haha.”
Seeing Diana like that, Leonhark was making another plan.
There is less than a month left to prepare.
‘It seems like a lot of things will change.’
Leonhark smiled slightly as he thought about the future.
* * *
“Tell me, why did you want to meet me?”
At Heinel’s question, Damian felt a momentary pressure on his chest.
‘What kind of depth does it have?’
I definitely thought I was stronger than my past self. And deeper too.
But Damian couldn’t even guess what level Heinel was at as he sat across from him.
I really began to doubt whether this person was really over 50 years old.
Gulp.
Damien tried to calm himself down and spoke to Heinel.
“I want to learn how to handle magic.”
“How to handle magic?”
“Yes, and furthermore, how to establish an aura.”
“… … .”
The word ‘Aura’ is not something that can be easily contained.
It is not only difficult to get to the level of having the minimum qualifications, but it also requires a combination of tremendous talent and luck.
“Haha, what a cheeky boy you are.”
Are you only twenty now?
I thought it was quite a stretch to say that coming from Damien, who didn’t even look like he was twenty years old.
but…….
‘If he was the commander of the unit that defeated the Rose Knights, then the story would be a little different.’
In other words, doesn’t that mean that he has already reached an absurd level at such a young age?
‘The ability to fight against about ten Rose Knights.’
Dare I say, if a teenage boy had such skills, it would be enough to turn the continent upside down.
Heinel let out a small breath.
“Hmm… … .”
Then he glanced at Damien briefly, then stood up and said.
“You came all the way here, so I can’t just let you go. Would you like to come out for a moment?”
Damian followed Heinel out first, who was striding out.
Soon, Heinel, who was holding two wooden swords that were roughly leaning against the wall, threw one of them at Damian who came out.
widely.
Damien’s eyebrows twitched slightly as he took the wooden sword.
Because it wasn’t an ordinary wooden sword.
At that, Heinel twitched the corners of his lips.
“Are you looking into it?”
“… … I don’t know what kind of wood it’s made of, but I know it’s special.”
“This is a wooden sword made from a branch of a thousand-year-old steel tree.”
Heinel said, lifting the wooden sword in his hand.
“When a steel tree is over five hundred years old, it becomes so strong that it can withstand magical power. And when it is over a thousand years old… … .”
Kururung.
“… … !”
Suddenly, Damian jumped back, raising his sword, at the tremendous momentum flowing out of Heinel’s body.
The moment the aura flowed out of his body, I felt a chilling sensation that made the hairs on my body stand on end.
Damien, who had stepped back about ten meters, had sweat running down his face.
Heinel looked at Damian with a faint smile.
“You have good reflexes. And your sensitivity is good too.”
Heinel simply praised Damian’s abilities. However, Damian could not be pleased with his praise.
Suddenly, a huge thunderclap was raging around his body.
Damian looked at Heinel and asked, trying to suppress his pounding heart.
“That, that’s Heinel-sama’s… … .”
“Yes, this is the form in which my aura is released.”
A red, clearly visible brain lesion.
It was a strange feeling, as if it was hot like a blazing flame, but also sharp and flashing like a blade.
Heinel asked Damien.
“Do you know anything about Auror?”
“… … I heard that each has a unique form… … depending on the caster’s disposition.”
“That’s right. So, in a fight between Auror Masters, it’s important to figure out what type of Auror the other person is using.”
Because you need to know the other person’s temperament so you can compare it with the aura you use and weigh it.
“But just knowing the form doesn’t mean you can figure out the characteristics of the aura. That’s why, even if we use the aura on the battlefield, the form can be revealed, but it’s not easy to figure out the characteristics.”
Swish.
Soon, as Heinel lightly swung his sword, the thunderbolts flowing around his body began to disappear.
“… … Phew.”
Only then was Damien able to let out a small breath and relax.
This is because, while the aura was still there, a warning sound was ringing in my head as if something was going to happen at any moment.
“Then, will you show me your realm?
“yes.”
Damian picked up the wooden sword.
Although his main weapon wasn’t a sword, it didn’t really matter for moving his magic.
Soon, a blue light began to shimmer around Damien’s body.
The magical power that was circulating inside his body flowed into the sword according to Damian’s will.
Woohoo.
It began to vibrate slightly and create a blue-colored dark energy.
When the Delft Magical Energy method reaches 5 stars, it is no longer a simple gaseous magical energy, but a more tangible ‘sword energy’ is formed.
At that sight, Heinel’s eyes shook greatly.
“… … So you can already control the sword?”
“It’s a recent achievement. This is the first time I’ve actually implemented it.”
But unlike the cool sword he had made, Damian’s expression looked quite tired.
This is because the mental power consumed in creating the sword was too great.
Swish.
Soon, the black aura that had been forming a shape disappeared, and a blue gas began to ripple around the sword.
“Phew… … .”
Damien let out a small breath and frowned. Seeing that, Heinel asked.
“Is that the best?”
“If you simply maintain it, it’s a little more possible. But if you’re asked to fight in that state, it seems like it’ll be difficult.”
“I just created my first sword, and it has such a distinct shape.”
It’s talent.
Or maybe you’ve been exposed to magic for quite some time.
‘If not, then I’ve encountered many other forms of magic.’
But considering the age of Damien in front of me, I couldn’t help but think it was talent.
Heinel maintained his gaseous form while increasing his magical power just like Damian.
“Then, shall we take a look at your skills?”
Originally, I had no intention of sparring, but as I watched Damien, I began to feel a strange sense of victory.
Heinel asked.
“How old are you?”
“I’m fifteen.”
“under?!”
Heinel let out a gasp of amazement. Philip, who was watching, made a slightly puzzled expression.
It had been a long time since I had seen Heinel express his emotions so openly.
Heinel’s eyes sparkled.
“Come and see for yourself with all your might.”
Heinel’s voice became slightly excited and agitated. But then… … .
“Excuse me, Heinel, but may I change weapons?”
“what?”
“The window looks familiar.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Heinel looked at Philippe, who was standing in front of the mansion.
Then Philip brought a spear to Damien.
“I’m sorry, but that’s the only window I have. Would you mind using that?”
“yes.”
Although he spoke as if he was just rolling around randomly.
‘… … That’s quite a big window.’
It was a spear made by the hands of a very skilled blacksmith.
Damien moved the window lightly, feeling its center of gravity.
After a while, when I got used to it, I looked at Heinel and said.
“Ready.”
“Come anytime.”
Heinel said, raising the corners of his lips.
I was already excited to see what this man, or rather, this boy, in front of me would look like.
thud!
With strong foot clouds.
Pavat!
Damien’s new form quickly rushed towards Heinel.
Heinel swung his sword lightly as he watched Damian running towards him.
Would this be enough to match his level?
but.
Whoosh!
“… … !”
It was a sword that was swung lightly.
But I never thought it would be easy on the other person.
Heinel couldn’t hide his bewildered expression as his sword cut through the air so futilely.
‘this…….’
What the heck?
Besides, there wasn’t much time to think.
Damian, who had moved to the side to dodge the attack, was now extending his spear towards Heinel.
‘Going full force from the start.’
He was not an opponent that I could fight while looking at his liver.
‘Now is the only time to let your guard down.’
Heinel’s blow just now.
It was a very fast and fierce attack, but Damian knew.
That means Heinel swung his sword according to his level.
But it was Heinel’s mistake.
It was definitely a sharp and fast sword, but it was an attack that looked too obvious.
“Ugh!”
It’s a rare and hard to hear shout from Damien.
Damien’s spear extended towards Heinel’s chest.
Although, unlike Heinel’s wooden sword, Damian’s spear was a real spear with a sharpened blade.
There was no hesitation in Damien’s attack.
He’s not the type of person who would be attacked to this degree anyway. And.
Whirl!
“… … !”
Philip, who was watching the spear’s trajectory suddenly turn downward, was startled.
Even to him, who was watching from a distance, Damien’s attack felt very sharp.
It would be even more difficult for Heinel, who is actually being attacked, to deal with it.
Shhhhhhhhhhh!
Damien’s attack changed direction and rushed in, aiming for Heinel’s thigh.
Even the knights with great swordsmanship were unable to properly block this attack.
but…….
Wow!
“… … !”
The magically charged spear bounced away powerlessly and soared into the sky.
Before I knew it, Heinel, who had been waving his sharp energy right before my eyes, lowered his posture and clung closely to Damian.
“You’re acting funny.”
‘That, that distance… …!’
Damian quickly moved his spear and attacked Heinel, who had stuck close to him without giving him time to react.
The priority was to somehow create some distance first. But… … .
“It’s really great, but I guess I’ll have to stop here for today.”
With those words, Heinel’s sword reached out towards Damian’s abdomen.
Clear point.
The angle of his wrist holding the sword and his shoulder stretched back. And his gaze, and even his breathing.
Everything was captured by Damien’s senses.
Damian quickly turned his body to avoid Heinel’s attack.
No, the moment I thought I had avoided it… … .
puck!
With a dull sound, Damien felt his vision go dark and he lost consciousness.
