The Bastard’s Way of Life of the Returning Swordsman

Episode 5

theo ragnar (5)

‘ah… … !’

Theo let out a sigh involuntarily.

It was because he was well aware of how important the ‘sammaegyeong’ he had been experiencing before was an important moment for the prosecutor.

Critical situations that can sometimes jump several levels of realm.

In fact, Theo was able to succeed in catching the clue of arcane swordsmanship, which he had only been vaguely aware of.

And just as I was about to enter beyond that, I was interrupted.

Of course, Theo’s face couldn’t help but be irritated.

But it was the same on Rendon’s side that his face was red.

‘Looks like you heard something from your mother.’

Are you here to protest?

For a moment, Theo felt all fussing with him was futile.

Wasn’t he an idiot who didn’t even notice that he was soaked in samadhi?

Mixing things up was a waste of time.

It’s a hundred times better to focus on arcane swordsmanship again at that time.

Theo said, not even looking at Landon, as he set his nose up again.

“Are you still there?”

“what… … !”

“Have you not heard from your mother? I must have told you to vacate the room by this morning.”

“that’s!”

“As you can see, I’m a bit busy. If you have nothing else to do, please leave.”

Rendon’s face flushed redder with anger.

Being ignored by Theo, whom he had been treating as a semi-asshole, made him angry.

But either way or not.

Theo moved slowly again, swinging the Zweihander.

＜Three Claws of the Dragon＞.

It is to try again the swordsmanship that failed.

* * *

Theo’s presence fueled Rendon’s anger even more.

‘This asshole dares to stand in front of me… … !’

The title of teacher of Ragnar’s direct lineage was always a title that ‘eats’ wherever he went.

Rendon never intended to give it up.

He was about to threaten him if it didn’t work, but just in time, he was training his swordsmanship so that he wouldn’t become Theo.

If so, wouldn’t it be okay if you personally realized the gap between him and yourself?

Dig!

Rendon immediately drew the sword hanging from his waist and swung it.

The target is Theo’s neck.

‘If you give me even a little scar on my skin, I’ll get scared and sleep on my own…’ … !’

But Rendon’s thoughts were short-lived.

Suddenly, Theo’s Zweihander cut through the ground, then suddenly jumped out in front of Rendon and deflected the attack.

Chaaang!

“… … !”

It was an inexorable force.

Rendon flinched back, startled by the pain that seemed to tear his arm off.

At that moment, Theo’s sharp gaze turned to Rendon.

flinch!

For a moment, Rendon felt his heart sink at Theo’s spirit.

“more.”

“what… … ?”

“Try more.”

Theo’s eyes were shining more intensely than ever.

[You have succeeded in mastering your first swordsmanship. (1/10)]

[Your strength has increased by 2.]

[Your HP has increased by 1.]

Messages floating in the middle of the retina.

Do you judge that you have mastered swordsmanship simply by blocking an attack?

In addition, the physical ability rises?

In fact, I felt a surge of strength in my body.

Theo is already fascinated by the mysterious ability of messages.

So can you stay still?

At this point, I have to pull out the mulberry.

Sizzle.

Theo saw Rendon as the golden goblin for the first time.

‘I blocked that attack once, are you ignoring me? You bastard is really going to die!’

dig-

Rendon gritted his teeth and moved quickly. He thought Theo was making fun of him.

Theo, on the other hand, was calm.

He focused all his senses on Rendon.

man’s breath. pupil movement. muscles used. direction of the footsteps. The angle of the sword… … .

The vast amount of information quickly caught Theo’s eyes.

‘The amount of magical power inside the Aura Heart has increased significantly. Thanks to that, my body vision has also improved.’

All bodily functions were elevated.

Thanks to that, it was easy to judge.

how to respond

‘I reverse the third herbivore of ＜The Clown’s Game＞ and prevent it.’

Zweihander drew a soft curve.

A swordsmanship with a completely different feeling from the previous swordsmanship that used fierce momentum.

Chae Ae Aeng-

Rendon’s attack was blocked this time as well.

‘Are you sure. The power carried by the sword has become stronger. Breathing became much easier.’

It was absolutely not an illusion.

Rendon stumbled and was pushed away as evidence of that.

I could be sure of this.

The more you fight, the more you fight.

The more you learn swordsmanship, the more you learn.

He was getting stronger fast.

And.

Tring!

[You have succeeded in mastering the second swordsmanship. (2/10)]

[Agility has increased by 1.]

[Intelligence has increased by 1.]

Again, a change occurred in the body along with the message window.

You feel your muscles tighten and your body feels lighter.

‘Then does it speed up too?’

Theo, who had only defended so far, tried to attack first this time.

widely!

The strength of the leg power that spurred the ground surprised even myself.

Of course, the time to arrive in front of Rendon was much faster than expected.

“… … Suck!”

Rendon was also startled, his eyes wide open and he hurriedly tried to draw the sword inside.

Theo, who had regained his composure earlier, was leaning inside him.

Zweihander slapped him across the chest.

＜Reverse Divergence Tax＞.

It was an arcane swordsmanship that was only faithful to strength.

Kwaaang!

“Aagh!”

Rendon narrowly blocked the attack and was pushed back by three or four steps.

Then I stepped on something wrong and fell backwards.

[You have succeeded in mastering the third swordsmanship. (3/10)]

[Your strength has increased by 1.]

[Agility has increased by 1.]

[Your luck has increased by 2.]

‘Until luck?’

Paha.

Theo gave a light laugh.

I could feel myself getting stronger every moment.

‘this… … the power of the message. And Ragnar’s talent.’

It wasn’t just because the message changed the ability.

The talents of Ragnar’s body strengthen his quick judgment, coping skills, and reflexes, and show a synergistic effect in harmony with the message.

‘In addition, there is also the power that the heart gives.’

message.

Ragnar’s Talent.

dragon heart.

As long as you have these three things.

Theo could become infinitely stronger.

‘I can win… … Maybe.’

Thanks to this, Theo was greedy for ‘victory’ from simply trying to fight with Rendon.

“Kill it, kill it, kill it!”

On the other hand, Rendon, who looked ridiculous, was now in a state where both eyes were turned upside down.

Wedge love!

What was young in his eyes was an obvious murderous intent.

But.

Theo moved his body with the Zweihander indifferently, still without a hint of shaking.

Chow ah!

* * *

‘It became faster again.’

Julius’ eyes twinkled as he watched Theo and Rendon’s unmatched match.

At first, he tried to restrain him until Rendon interfered with Theo’s realization and started a fight.

No matter how swindler Rendon is, he is also a 2-star entry-level swordsman. It was absolutely not a level that a beginner who had just started holding a sword could handle.

However, Julius gave up on that idea before long.

‘The longer the fighting time, the sharper my senses are. The posture is stabilized.’

Clearly, on the face of it, Rendon had the upper hand.

Rendon was pushing Theo frantically, and Theo was doing all he could to defend it.

But his eyes were different.

While Rendon wielded his sword randomly, unable to calm down his excitement, Theo was calmly responding.

Even so, every time he counterattacked, he could see Rendon flinching in surprise.

‘I got a clue about ascending swordsmanship from Sammaegyeong! Already at such a young age… … !’

Julius saw it and realized.

Theo is not sparring with Rendon.

textbook. I thought of it as a stepping stone for my own growth.

“A dog like this dog!”

Rendon must have noticed that too, and his face was dedicated to evil.

‘Is this possible?’

A beginner practicing ‘swordsmanship’ against a 2-star swordsman.

No matter how great Ragnar’s talent is, isn’t this more than common sense?

‘genius. He’s a genius.’

Julius’ misunderstanding, not knowing the existence of the message, grew as it grew and turned into a longing for Theo.

If it’s a friend like that, I’ll have to get it somehow.

Chew.

Julius drool involuntarily.

“… … .”

Evelyn, who was watching it from the side, shook her head.

This man got sick again.

The nickname of childhood Julius came to mind.

– Talent desire… … No, collectors.

He was an aristocrat who never gave up on talented people.

* * *

“No, no way… … !”

Even while he was collapsing and collapsing from exhaustion, Rendon expressed his disbelief at this situation.

[You have succeeded in mastering the tenth swordsmanship. (10/10)]

[Your strength has increased by 2.]

[Your luck has increased by 1.]

Theo was intoxicated by the afterglow of victory.

Each fingertip and each toe throbbed with adrenaline overflowing.

Do Ragnar’s swordsmen always live in this mood? Then it made sense that they were crazy about fighting.

If you feel like this for the first time, how would other people feel?

But there was something else that left the deepest impression on Theo.

triumph.

uplifting.

desire to achieve.

From the first life to the previous life and the present life. The fact that he had done something with his hands for the first time in his life inspired him.

The skills that had been lagging until the first time he faced Rendon were now enough to overwhelm Rendon.

It was an incredibly steep growth.

‘Finally I did it. I… … can do.’

Isn’t this the biggest fruit Theo has achieved in this life?

[Congratulations! You have successfully completed Tutorial Quest #7.]

[Rating: A+]

[I got ‘■■■’s arm■’ as a reward.]

[Obtained the ＜Observation＞ privilege as an additional reward according to the evaluation.]

observe?

Then, at the new message that came to mind, Theo widened his eyes.

‘Has the magic compensation ended now? I’m sorry.’

However, for some reason, I strongly felt that this additional reward would be no less than that.

‘How do you use this? coffin… … kick?’

The moment when Theo muttered softly while looking at the fallen Rendon.

[Observing ‘Rendon Harvey’.]

+

Rendon Harvey (age 32/male)

· Title: Swindler Mercenary

Talent: Cheating

Status: Disappointment or anger due to unexpected defeat

+

‘… … Isn’t this personal information about a person?’

It seemed to be the ability to find out information about the object ＜observed＞.

I thought it would output not only the talents of the target, but also the current state.

Depending on the use, it seemed to be a very large weapon.

‘Then can you see mine too?’

But Theo couldn’t open up any information about himself.

In the first place, the act of ＜observation＞ can only be done by a third person, but it seemed to be because I couldn’t see myself that way.

‘This time, there are no broken parts at all. What’s different from before?’

Theo narrowed his eyes as he suppressed the momentary question.

The contents of Rendon’s ‘status’ were absurd.

– Disappointment or anger due to unexpected defeat.

‘Yes and now. I don’t like it until the end.’

“I think this is enough, so leave your room until today. If you stick to it any longer, I’ll call the lawyers.”

 Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Law prosecutors were those in charge of the family’s internal rules and security.

With the exception of the family head, he had the right to punish the elders, so he was known as the grim reaper to the family members.

Rendon’s head dropped, as if he had heard of their notoriety.

swish-

Theo stopped caring about him and turned away.

Originally, he would have to continue his swordsmanship training, but now it seemed more important to review the swordsmanship he had mastered.

By the way.

“You bastard dog! die!”

Suddenly, Rendon raised his head and threw something towards Theo’s back.

It was a completely unexpected raid.

‘… … !’

Was pretending to be in despair a ploy to get out the memorization?

Theo hurriedly tried to turn away, but the dagger was already running towards his face.

thump thump thump!

Just when I thought the dragon’s heart was beating that fast and the vision around it was slowing down.

flash-

A flash of light seemed to fall from the sky, but I bounced it off casually.

Chaaang!

And then it appears.

A middle-aged man with fierce eyes like a tiger stood in front of Theo.

“Backpack… … Courageous Captain?”

Julius Ragnar.

Why is he here, who has the highest rank in the family?

Before Theo can even question it.

“I mean winning. You have to be careful until the end. The most dangerous moment for a swordsman is not during battle, but when he thinks he has won and loses his guard. And-.”

While Julius taught Theo in a calm voice, he swung his sword with a ferocity that didn’t match his voice at all.

“If you once decided to use your hands vigorously, eat vigorously until the very end.”

A flash of light seemed to flash from Julius’ sword, and the aura that was released cut through Rendon’s neck at once.

Spark-

Woo woo!

Crimson fountains of blood stained the floor of the gymnasium.

Rendon’s face, full of miasma, still seemed unaware that he was dead.

“Aagh! The gymnasium is dirty! Captain! What if you suddenly use your hands like that! That means I have to clean it!”

Ignoring the screams of the 4th gymnasium manager, Evelyn, echoing from behind.

Julius turned his head to Theo.

“Are you hurt anywhere?”
