9 – Blind vs. Narrow-eyed
Students were stunned by his provocation for a while.
Because I didn’t know that a blind man who thought he would be silent would do such a crazy thing.
But, at the same time, everyone thought the same thing.
‘It’s all cool inside. Really.’
Look at that smirking, teasing smile.
No matter how much you are a professor, you can’t really be mean when you’re in the position of being victimized.
Moreover, even giving the last feedback somehow makes me feel feverish.
Is that so?
Most of the students looked at me and no one tackled me.
“Funny. I never thought I would get mirror treatment like this.”
“Wouldn’t it be natural to not know about worldly affairs? Professor.”
“Yes. Yes, then let’s see if you have the skills to match those words.”
Dale kicked the ground.
Dale is approaching at the same speed as before.
Usually here, most of the students were at a loss.
There is a difference between watching from the sidelines and facing them in person.
However, Baran has the characteristic of being calm.
-Whoop!
Without panic, I shot a magical arrow at him.
Dale raised the corner of his mouth as he watched the magical arrows fly towards him.
‘Certainly more calm than other students.’
Not to mention, his sniper skills are exceptional.
Aren’t all the arrows flying towards the eyes?
It seems like this is going to cover his sight.
“Compared to his sniper skills, his strength is lacking a lot.”
Anyway, that’s all.
No matter how good your skills are, if you lack strength, you will eventually be there.
Isn’t the flying speed still cool?
Dale leisurely avoided the flying arrows by spinning around his body.
Then, when he spurred his foot once more, he reached right in front of Baran’s nose.
“It seems I was expecting too much.”
He smiles bitterly and waves his hand.
So of course I thought he wouldn’t be able to escape.
“Hmm?!”
Contrary to expectations, Baran narrowly avoided his attack.
In an instant, all the students watching the situation, including Dale, widened their eyes.
“You just dodged that?!”
“No one has been able to avoid it until now?!”
“What is he really?”
Amid everyone’s surprise, Baran, on the other hand, was swallowing dry saliva.
‘Crazy. It’s very hard.’
To others, it may seem quite relaxed, but in fact, it was quite close.
Even though he has the trait of Eye of Mind, avoiding his attacks is not an easy task.
What do you do when you see an attack?
I can’t move properly because my ability is low.
‘It’s fortunate that I sparred like crazy with the Skeleton Knight.’
If it wasn’t for that, it’s clear that it would have been extended to one sum.
‘But it’s still worth doing.’
Dodged without using high-speed movement.
If everything goes according to plan like this, it will definitely be possible to land effective hits on him.
The moment Baran thought so.
“You’d better stay focused. The desired student.”
Dale, who came close to him, stabs him in the palm of his hand this time.
Baran threw his head back and dodged his attack.
At the same time.
-Huh.
I let go of the bowstring with one hand.
Then, magic arrows rushed at him once again.
‘First of all, let’s keep the distance as much as possible and make them vigilant.’
With that thought in mind, I continued to attack Dale, who had a creepy smile.
***
Same time.
Sherry, who was watching the situation, was in a state of astonishment.
‘How could that be?’
She also sparred with Dale.
However, unlike Baran, she couldn’t even react to Dale’s attack.
‘But how could that man do that?’
Hopefully you can hold out against Dale.
Of course, seeing that she kept being pushed back by him, it was clear that the gauge would go to zero at this rate.
However, one thing is certain: he is holding out against Dale longer than anyone else.
She looked around her just in case she was surprised.
Then, the other students were just as shocked as she was.
‘I wasn’t the only one surprised.’
Even Luden, who is considered to be a rival, has his eyes wide open.
Even Lilia, who usually smiles only with a relaxed smile, shows a somewhat surprised reaction.
‘If I do this, I won’t be recognized by my father.’
She has to become a first-year senior in order to be recognized by her father.
I have to do this much for my father, the head of the family, to acknowledge it.
‘I have to work harder.’
She quietly watched the two of them fight with her searing eyes on her.
***
At some point, Dale’s attack left only about 10% of my gauge.
My breath fills up to the end of my throat.
At the same time, you can feel the sweet taste in your mouth, and at the same time, rough breathing comes out naturally.
“Heo-eok… Heo-eok…”
I watched Dale smirking.
Unlike me, Dale seems quite relaxed.
At this rate, you will lose without even getting an effective hit.
‘This should be enough.’
Thinking of that, I took a deep breath.
At this point, he must be off guard.
‘No. To be precise, they’ll think I’m doing my best right now.’
That’s why, there is no way to give him an effective hit other than now.
“Now let’s finish it slowly.”
I shot an arrow at him.
“Huh?”
A magic arrow that moves faster than before.
Looking at that, a smile was drawn on Dale’s lips.
“Looks like he was hiding his power.”
“Can you do that against the professor?”
As I answered that, I waited to see how he came out.
The next moment, as expected, he rushes forward.
And then.
-Paat!
Dale moved behind me, dodging all the magic arrows as if it was natural.
It seems like he is trying to knock me out by hitting the back of my neck like the other students.
Ordinarily, you would miss his movements here and get hit.
But, what are my characteristics?
Isn’t it none other than a 5-star attribute?
Because of that, unless he uses magic, there’s nothing he can’t follow with his eyes.
-Ugh!
Condensed magic into the soles of his feet.
Then, let’s kick our feet with all our might.
-High-speed movement.
“Whoa!”
Inversely, I succeeded in moving behind him.
That’s how the back of Dale’s head became defenseless.
I quickly made an arrow, then let go of the bowstring.
-Love drink!
An arrow that cuts through the atmosphere.
However, it is impossible to give him an effective hit with one foot.
As expected.
“The attempt was good, but the opponent turned out to be bad. If he had been a professor without high-speed travel, he would have taken a hit.”
He turns his head and leisurely dodges.
But at that moment.
“Hmm?”
The last remaining magic arrow is directed in front of him.
Seeing that, Dale’s eyes narrowed.
The time when you want to hit it like that.
-Gasp!
He manages to catch the magical arrow with one hand.
Students watching from around burst into pitiful exclamations.
From noble mtl dot com.
“Wow, it’s really a waste.”
“Recognized.”
“If it had been a little faster, it would have been possible to feed him in one shot.”
While the students were conversing, Dale burst into laughter again with a smirk.
“Ahahahahaha, sorry. If the strength of the desired student had been a little stronger, it would have been an effective hit.”
The corners of his mouth go up as if he is quite happy.
Whoever sees it will know it’s the end.
“Professor.”
“Yes?”
“I’m sure the professor said that, right? Could there be a sudden surprise attack?”
“Yes. I said so. Even though I stopped that surprise attack~”
“Who said it was a surprise attack?”
“Yes?”
The moment Dale has doubts.
– Hwaaak.
The magical arrow he was holding began to emit light.
At an unexpected situation, Dale puts on a genuinely surprised expression.
The moment he was about to throw his magic arrow.
-Perong.
The magic arrow that emitted light exploded in small pieces.
Dale sweeps away the dirt from him with one arm swung by an unexpected little explosion.
And then, look this way.
As if asking how this happened.
“Funny. Then let’s see what else there is…”
“I surrender.”
Cutting his horse at the waist, he raised both his hands.
Then, all the students, including him, put on dumbfounded faces for a moment.
I continued to speak regardless of their reaction.
“There is nothing more. If I fight anyway, I will be defeated. So, I will surrender here.”
“·······.”
The corners of his mouth trembled, as if my words were quite sarcastic.
Yeah, just surrender.
Inwardly laughing at the world, I looked at his gauge.
‘As expected, it was only about 1 level.’
Actually, that is natural.
All I did was concentrate the magical energy as much as possible.
No more, no less.
‘Sup. After all, it’s still too much for a level 1 application of magic power.’
Well, if it goes according to plan anyway, you should be able to use the completed technology later.
Anyway, this is not important.
Even if the gauge only decreased by 1, it is clear that the effective hit was successful.
Thus, it is as if I have succeeded in my quest.
Therefore.
‘Give me the reward.’
[·······.]
The system seemed to have a lot to say, but it didn’t matter too much.
