The Immortal Genius Spearman (92)
A large number of troops gathered.
The unit members surrounding the training ground where Damian and Kyle were standing tried not to miss Damian’s words.
“It’s too focused on strength. It’s better to swing the sword a little more lightly, but to have multiple directions for your attacks.”
“Ugh!”
Boohoo!
“Even now. There’s only one way to hit the shoulder. I told you to mix in a fake attack when the opponent dodges, or before they dodge.”
“Whew… … Whoosh… … .”
Although he attacked for a long time, Kyle’s wooden sword did not even graze Damian’s collar.
As if he already knew where to attack, Damian moved his body with ease.
Before he knew it, Kyle was covered in sweat and panting for breath.
Although he was quite confident in his stamina, he felt like he was going to give up as the empty attacks continued.
“again.”
Damian said.
Kyle held his sword lightly, thinking about the advice Damian had given him.
‘Relax… …and think of multiple attack routes?’
Honestly, at first, I didn’t understand what Damien said.
I thought that if I attacked with strong force even if the opponent blocked it, I could break through their defense and inflict damage.
But his thoughts began to change as he was struck by an attack that didn’t even graze his opponent’s collar.
Swish.
Kyle relaxed his grip on the sword and relaxed his shoulders.
Damian looked at him with a little surprise at his slightly relaxed appearance.
‘……under?’
Because he never thought the guy would take his advice.
‘I thought you were quite stubborn.’
Having experienced it firsthand, I don’t think that’s true.
Damien smiled and made a slight gesture.
“Come and see.”
“Put the pressure down!”
Pavat!
A brisk but fairly fast pace.
It was still a charge full of honesty.
‘It’s much better than before.’
Damien quickly stepped back and extended his staff towards the guy.
Swaaaak!
Three hits in a blink of an eye.
When Kyle first received this attack, he was startled and stepped back.
but…….
Kwakwakwang!
This time, he raised his shield, calmly blocked the attack, and then shook his body greatly from side to side.
It was a similar feeling to what Jerka had shown in the previous sparring.
‘Look at this?’
Suddenly, the applicability increased significantly.
When you relax your body, you can do all the movements you want.
“Ugh!”
Kyle moved his body to the left and then quickly moved to the right.
The guy swung his sword at Damian with a roar.
WHEEK!
A sword strike that falls in a straight line.
It seemed simple though.
‘This guy… … ‘
Perhaps the biggest takeaway from this matchup is Kyle.
Kyle twisted the sword he was swinging downwards and extended it to the side.
Taaak!
Damian blocked Kyle’s attack with his staff.
The corners of Kyle’s mouth went up at that.
“Hehehe, did you know that I blocked it first?”
“The attack just now was pretty good, I admit.”
“This is just the beginning!”
Kyle, feeling confident, shouted and raised his sword. But… … .
‘I’m sorry, but I can’t do this anymore.’
Anyway, I’ve already taught him what he needs to know.
From now on, you just have to make it completely your own through countless training sessions.
Because there was no reason to continue the sparring any longer.
“Ugh!”
Damien quickly extended his staff towards the guy.
An attack with a different feel than before.
Shhhhhhhh!
Kyle quickly swung his sword at the outstretched pole aiming for his right shoulder.
It was to knock down Damien’s seal.
But at that moment.
Whoosh!
“… … !”
The extended pole suddenly changed direction and hit Kyle’s thigh.
Bam!
“Ugh!”
The force of the blow was enough to pierce the thigh if it had had a blade.
Kyle’s body lurched violently from Damien’s blow, and he fell to the floor on one knee.
Wham!
Before he knew it, Damien’s staff was aimed at Kyle’s neck.
“… … I lost.”
Kyle said with a regretful expression.
I was thinking maybe it was time to try something.
‘How much… has happened?’
I knew Damian was strong.
That it’s special.
But I knew it, so I tried so hard not to let it happen… … .
Swish.
“… … ?”
Kyle looked at Damian, who had reached out his hand, and smirked without realizing it.
Finally, Kyle said, holding my hand and getting up.
“I won’t give up next time.”
“That’s right, train harder and harder.”
After finishing his duel with the two men, Damian returned to the barracks.
And the window that was set up in its place.
“… … .”
At some point, I definitely started feeling regretful.
Especially after fighting the general of the empire, wasn’t it almost in ruins?
‘I tried to shed as much as possible, but… … .’
It seemed like it would be difficult to use it any further.
Besides, it is quite burdensome for such a standard window to withstand Damien’s magic power.
It didn’t break until now because I was using it with fine control of force, but if I had swung it hard and deliberately, it could have broken at any time.
‘We need a slightly better weapon.’
As your skill level increases, the more equipment you have to support it, the greater the boost you can achieve.
In that sense, Damien fought purely based on his own senses.
but.
‘Now… … we’re going to start fighting those guys for real.’
This is no longer something that can be delayed.
Swish.
Damien looked at the calendar on the wall.
It’s not yet time for him to be active, but…
“Still, I think it would be better to start looking for it now.”
Later on, when he becomes famous, it will be difficult to even buy weapons from him.
It won’t be long before we’re deployed on another mission.
I felt like I had to move quickly before then.

The royal palace of the Spanish kingdom.
The palace was filled with tension, but eventually something happened.
“That’s why I said you absolutely had to do it.”
“Ugh… … Ugh… … !”
King of the Spanish Kingdom.
Itelior Spanian could not believe the tragedy unfolding before his eyes.
“How dare you… … How dare you think you can get away with something like this!”
“yes.”
Itelior let out a roar of anger, but the man in front of him responded politely.
Three swords are engraved on the left chest of the uniform he is wearing. And red roses and thorns surround the swords.
It was the emblem of the Rose Knights, the knights of the empire.
And the man is the commander of the Rose Knight Knights.
It was Piaren.
Red hair that has settled down calmly.
Although they had a strong momentum that seemed like they would explode at any moment, the eyes looking at them were filled with peace.
He wiped the blood off his sword and put it back in its scabbard.
Only one.
There were hundreds of soldiers in the palace, but no one could stop him from killing the royal family.
The Empire’s Auror Master, Fiarren Tail.
He looked at Itelior with a leisurely expression and said.
“If you fail again next time… … the prince may have to put his head out. And even this, you must know, is a mercy from His Majesty the Emperor.”
Swish.
Piaren glanced briefly at the people present.
All those gathered here were royalty or high-ranking officials of the Spanish kingdom.
Piaren’s eyes sparkled.
“I think we should kill half of the people here… … .”
Piaren turned around slightly.
“It is Your Majesty’s order that I will withdraw for today. Please proceed with caution in your next operation.”
The palace that Piaren turned to.
The sadness of those present remained vivid along with the blood stains he had carved.

Southeast of the Baroque Kingdom.
Miltobern, located there, was a small city, but it was crowded with quite a lot of people.
The so-called city of artisans.
It was also called the city of art because there were many artisans engaged in various artistic activities.
“It’s been… long time since I’ve been here.”
Damien, who came to Miltobern using his ten-day vacation permit, looked around the city as he entered.
‘You can get a spear from the 6th Corps’s weapons warehouse, but… … .’
Still, it is no match for the weapons made by artisans.
Damien headed somewhere across the city.
This is because there was a separate sector in Miltobern where blacksmiths gathered.
The Blacksmith Sector, located to the west of the city, had a different atmosphere from other places.
“Hey, it’s still hot in here.”
Blacksmiths can be easily seen just by turning your head.
Damien raised the corners of his mouth at the sight of blacksmiths hammering away, sweating profusely and taking off their shirts.
Because this suited Damien’s tastes better than others who drew music or pictures.
“Huh. This is the first time I’m seeing your face. Are you a mercenary?”
As Damien was loitering around the blacksmith shop, a man who was outside smoking a cigarette spoke to Damien.
After a while, he glanced at Damien up and down.
“… … It looks like you have pretty good skills.”
He spoke softly to his well-balanced body.
Damien said to him.
“Is there a blacksmith named Tor-El here?”
“Thorel?”
He tilted his head at Damian’s question.
I know the names of the blacksmiths here quite well.
“Is this your first time hearing the name Tor-El?”
Because I had never heard of such a name.
Damien’s expression hardened at the man’s words.
‘I thought it would be easier to meet you if I knew your name… ‘
I only knew about him through rumors, but I had no detailed information about his appearance or anything like that.
Damien stood there, looking embarrassed.
But then.
“what’s the matter?”
Someone approached the man who had been speaking to Damien and said:
It was a blacksmith from another blacksmith shop who came out to cool off.
The man asked him.
“Oh, this young man asked if I knew a blacksmith named Tor-El.”
“Tor-El? Is there a blacksmith by that name in our city?”
He also tilted his head as if he was hearing it for the first time. But… … .
“Oh, I think you are referring to the apprentice at Meister Wiltron’s blacksmith shop.”
“Oh, that brown hair? But didn’t she get kicked out a while ago?”
They spoke one by one as if they had just remembered.
And the man who first spoke to Damien said:
“There is such a guy, but he is not a blacksmith yet. He is an apprentice who is learning. But… … He is not even that anymore.”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
Damien asked with a surprised look.
Did he ever serve his apprenticeship in a city like this?
‘Well, I don’t know everything about him… … .’
Besides, the timing is quite fast.
What Damien knew about him was that he was a craftsman who had blossomed in extremely difficult circumstances.
Black skin, a rare sight in the kingdom.
I heard he got criticized quite a bit because of that.
But when he created the Shin Chang Drain Killer, the world began to judge him differently.
Black diamond.
There are people who call him that.
After that, all the weapons he made began to gain enormous fame.
He must have been so bad that even in the great advance of the empire that took no prisoners, an official document was issued stating that he must be captured.
But now wasn’t the time, so I just came to look for it… … .
“Can you elaborate a little more?”
“Well, who doesn’t have a story?
At Damien’s words, the man began to tell about something that had happened a few days ago.
