Chapter 105 Weapon Skills (2)
After training with Levette, I headed to Monty.
Difficult, difficult, dangerous and painful training.
In his words, training was about 5% easier than when I was at my hardest.
Wondering what it was, I went to see Monty, half worried and half excited.
“You’re here.”
At his training center, Monty held something out to me.
“… … What is this?”
“Take it. “It is absolutely necessary for your training.”
When I received it and held it, there was a bead lying there.
“… … “I don’t know what it is.”
“Frondier. I said it last time. “I want to know how I became a Weapon Master and walk down that path.”
“yes.”
“The method was simple. And it took a long time.”
I heard this the other day. So, I was told that it was not suitable for me who wanted to grow quickly.
Monty said.
“That was God’s help.”
“… … yes?”
From Noble mtl dot com
“I received my divine power from Druga. Do you know?”
Druga.
He is a god in Indian mythology.
In mythology, it is said that it has several arms and that each hand holds and uses a variety of different weapons. This is a scene that suits Monty, the Weapon Master.
No, since the god who bestowed divine power was Druga, did Monty eventually become a Weapon Master?
“How can you say God helped?”
If a place and prayers do not come together, God cannot descend. Even if you fight a god, you have to have a target to fight.
“Even if he does not appear directly, God can possess various objects.”
After saying that, Monty walked to the wooden doll placed in the training area. This is a doll made for training purposes to improve posture and movement.
As Monty touched the doll, a purple haze began to appear in my eyes.
When I saw that, I remembered. When fighting Edwin’s golem, Hephaestus, the owner of Edwin’s divine power, transferred from Edwin to the golem.
… … but.
‘God usually wouldn’t do something like that.’
Hephaestus possessed the golem because he was intent on killing me.
God does not possess things unless there is a clear reason to do so. To put it simply, the reason is because it is inferior.
In other words, Hephaestus at that time wanted to kill me to that extent.
“Will Druga help me?”
So I asked Monty, and Monty looked at me as if wondering what I was talking about.
“Why will Druka help you?”
“yes?”
“This is the bead I just gave you. “It is something that Druga and I signed a contract with.”
“What contract is this?”
“It was a promise that if Druga got that bead, I would give my body to Druga.”
… … what?
“Does Druga hate Monty?”
“Hmm. On the contrary, I think I really like it. However, he seemed to be interested in the human world these days. So, the story was that he wanted to possess my body and look around for a moment.”
“… … wait for a sec… … .”
“okay. By human standards, we have no idea how long that moment will last. “What if I give my body away and only return it after it becomes a corpse?”
That’s right.
This is what I felt when I met Rudra, the god of Elodie, but gods should not be easily understood, regardless of their affection for humans.
“Well, something like that.”
“… … ‘Is that something like that?’
“Don’t lose it.”
Monty stepped away from the wooden doll.
Then the wooden doll trembled, stretching its arms as if stretching.
Then he looked around and stood in front of me holding the sword and shield that were on the display stand.
“… … “Are you telling me to fight God now?”
“hahahaha. “Is that possible?”
Monty laughed heartily again.
Now I’m starting to get annoyed by that extravagance.
“It’s just a wooden doll.”
As if it were a signal that Monty said that,
Hiss!!
The wooden doll rushed at me. The speed at which that body moved was truly surprising.
“Hmph!”
Wow!
I quickly took out my short sword and blocked it.
‘Weak.’
I felt it the moment we collided with each other. I am stronger.
If you think about it, it was natural. The opponent is a wooden doll. There is no way that I, who can already use Aurors, will lag behind in strength or speed.
However.
Hiss!
The wooden doll’s sword swung again, this time aiming for my ankle.
The moment I shifted my focus to avoid it,
Whoa!
“Gagging!”
I was hit and knocked down.
what? fist? I was so focused on the sword aimed at my foot that I couldn’t see it.
‘I see! ‘If you try to avoid being aimed at your feet, your balance will shake!’
The moment I lifted my feet off the ground, it was a black fake aimed at my feet.
“Hmph!”
I rolled on the floor with all my might. There was no time to sit back and relax, and there was no time to save face.
Boom! Cough! Wow!
Every space I retreated into, the wooden doll’s scary sword struck the floor one after another.
Cheok!
While I was rolling, I lifted myself up with my hands. I barely stood up and faced the wooden doll.
Without a doubt, just looking at his skills, he is better than Azie.
The first person I met was an opponent who was clearly inferior in strength and speed, but clearly superior in skill.
“Druga, I will give you 10 minutes.”
“… … !”
The wooden doll responded. The purple haze spread again, permeating the wooden dolls around it.
“… … “No, wait a minute.”
And a wooden doll that raises its body at the same time. Including the wooden dolls they were confronting just a moment ago, there were 6 in total.
All of them were holding different types of weapons. Sword, spear, bow, axe, hammer, mace.
“Frondier, I have become stronger thanks to the contract with Druga. “I grew by handling and learning each weapon.”
I understand without you having to say it. How Monty became a Weapon Master.
“But you said you didn’t have enough time. Well the answer is simple. “Learn all weapons at once.”
“The answer is really simple.”
I’m saying this now though.
Is Monty really a good person as a teacher?
“Like I said, it’s 10 minutes, hold on!”
… … .
Appreciation of training.
Difficult, difficult, dangerous, painful,
It was like
* * *
I visited several people.
Anyone who can handle anything other than the weapon you are learning now.
And the first thing that came to mind was Binkiss, the teacher.
I went to Vinkis’ lab. As expected, Vinkis was researching golems.
“You want to deal with a golem?”
Binkis was surprised by my words and asked back.
“yes. “Your golem must have also become more advanced than it was then.”
I said that and checked Vinkis’ golem. The appearance hasn’t changed much from the last time I saw it.
“Is it still ‘Ajie Mk’?”
“I told you I was going to throw away that name now.”
Binkis’ golem was originally modeled after my older brother.
A thought occurred to me and I asked Vinkis.
“Now that I think about it, are there any models for this golem other than my brother?”
“Now we have trained several models. “It wasn’t the case last time.”
“What about the last time I saw you?”
“huh. “At that time, the only model was Ajie.”
Those words reminded me.
I have cloned Vinkis’ golem. When dealing with Eden Pro and his teammates.
The golem was given something identical to the enemy’s weapon. The golem’s model was Ajie, so I was curious whether he would be good at using weapons other than spears.
As a result, Golem surpassed the pro’s skills.
‘Binkis’ Golem cannot perfectly imitate Ajie’s skills. Still, that level of skill… … .’
Of course, because it is a golem, it is much harder than a human body, and can perform techniques with strong strength and joint flexibility.
However, looking at the weapon technology itself, Golem will not be able to catch up with Ajie.
“Did my brother normally use other weapons well?”
“It did. It was quite later that Atjie chose the spear as his main weapon. When I was a freshman, I was famous for being good at using various weapons. Well, there was a lot of jealousy and arguments.”
“… … Was it an argument like, ‘If you don’t choose one weapon, it will be awkward?’
“Okay, okay. “I know very well.”
Binkis laughed as he spoke.
Somehow, Atjie seems to have followed the cliche of the main character of a boy’s cartoon.
“But Ajido did not intend to use all weapons at the time. “He said he was trying out various things and making a choice.”
“You know pretty well, right?”
“Because I was the homeroom teacher at the time.”
I opened my mouth in surprise.
“Teacher Binkis is the homeroom teacher… … ?”
“huh. It was like that back then. I don’t have to be a homeroom teacher anymore because it’s annoying. “After all, I am a researcher.”
“You did it well at the time.”
“It did. “I couldn’t refuse it anyway.”
Yes, that will happen.
In fact, it is strange that we are now concentrating only on research.
“Well, so Ajie chose the spear around the end of his first year.”
“Do you know why?”
“well. “The rumor at the time was that he was laughing out loud and saying, ‘This will do.’”
I can’t imagine. Ajie looks at the window and lets out an eerie laugh.
“Anyway, I want to fight the golem. Is it possible?”
“okay. “I can extract as much data as I want.”
So I started sparring with the golem.
It is the opposite of the wooden doll possessed by Druga. Although he is not as skilled as Azi, his strength and speed are superior to mine.
In this way, I created a cycle of visiting five people, Monty, Ajie, Elin, Levette, and Vinkis, and repeating the training.
Of course, I don’t visit everyone every day, but I am confident that not a single day is wasted.
… … Actually, that’s the problem.
* * *
A few days have passed.
I realized something in my own way.
All strong people say similar things. Even though they all hold different weapons.
Levette’s statement that ‘there will be meaning’ was a little different from Monty’s, but the gist was the same.
They don’t think what I’m doing is funny or strange.
A principle that applies to all weapons that Monty mentioned. I felt like I saw that side of things.
“but.”
At that time, Levette, who was sparring with him, sounded stern.
“If you use other training as an excuse to neglect training with me, I will teach you how to use a weapon with your left hand.”
“Don’t be scary.”
If I let my guard down even a little, one of my arms would fly off.
Of course, I have no intention of doing this roughly. However, it is true that I am worried about my condition.
Will I be able to complete the schedule of handling all weapons in one month?
As Levette said, it may not be stupid, but it is reckless.
“Well, please come as often as you like.”
“Of course.”
… … .
That’s how I got hit and run and rolled around during training with Levette.
I thought it was a natural thing to do because I was used to rolling around through long training with Atjie.
Levette was also taken aback by my poor skills at first, but now he seemed to have gotten used to it and played with me to his heart’s content.
It is a matter to think about whether things are going in a good direction.
“… … But that’s it.”
While training for a while, Levette asked.
“How are you doing?”
“… … “You mean my brother?”
“okay.”
Levette nodded.
To be honest, I had no idea Ajie’s name would come out of Levette’s mouth.
‘I’ve been hearing a lot about Ajie these days.’
But this is from my standards, and if you think about it, it’s natural.
The Roach family and the Lishae family often became friendly with each other. That is why Frontier is childhood friends with Elodie. Of course, my older brother and Elodie’s older brother would be close friends.
Moreover, Ajie and Levette both graduated from Constel.
Perhaps I was worried about my friend, I rolled my eyes for a moment and said.
“Nothing different from usual.”
Of course, Ajie talked about me and my father, but it had nothing to do with Ajie’s own situation.
“… … is it.”
Levette heard those words and nodded. He had a somewhat dissatisfied face.
Levette said when I was thinking that he was dissatisfied with things being the same as usual.
“How long is that guy going to be like that?”
“What does that mean?”
“You know what that means.”
Levette told me as if it was obvious.
“It means that it would be good to decide on something and do it.”
“… … ah.”
When you said that, I guessed it.
Levette said with a sigh.
“Whether you become a professional or a knight, anything is fine. “I don’t know why he likes the word ‘temporary’ so much.”
“… … “Isn’t my brother a professional?”
“To be a professional, you have to receive a mission and work hard.”
Levette sighed.
Now that I think about it, Ajie is working in a very diverse range of positions.
In addition to being a professional, he was also a knight of the imperial palace, and at one time served as a temporary teacher at Constell.
I was wondering how he could move like that, but it turned out that it was all temporary.
“Because he has outstanding skills, there are many people looking for him even if he only works for a short time. But that makes it difficult to gain trust. You can’t increase the value of your name. “Experience is essential to settle down, but how long are you going to stay like that?”
Levette seemed to have concerns of his own.
From Noble mtl dot com
After listening to it, I too became curious. What are you planning to do with Ajie?
‘You also said you would teach me how to use a spear. In that case, it means that I will continue to stay at Roach Mansion. So, there is no decision yet on whether to become a professional or an article… … .’
There I am.
My thoughts bit the tail of my thoughts, and I discovered something.
Although it is one possibility.
If it were the other way around.
“… … Hey, Frontier.”
Then Levette said:
“You’re a complete novice at polearms, but you’re a war hero. Strong enough. “Don’t you think so?”
“… … “The fact that you’re saying that now, after all.”
“okay. “I have the same thoughts as you.”
Levette spoke as if he had read my guess.
“There’s no need for Ajie to raise you anymore, right?”
