Episode 71. Magical energy flood (6)
The girl exuded a rare spirit from the moment she entered.
Fierce eyes and a monotonous white sword.
As soon as I saw him, I knew who he was.
“Is it Gawain’s daughter…?”
“Oh, did you know my father?”
“I am the one who made Gawain’s sword.”
“You mean Judgment Day?!”
“No, not that. There is a sword that he broke while he was young.”
“············”.
Tree’s mouth shut.
Although he was not the one who made the legendary sword, it was clear that he was not a blacksmith of ordinary skill because he made the sword his father used.
“It’s urgent. Please sharpen the blade of this sword.”
“Isn’t this a training sword?”
“Yes. I don’t have enough swords….”
“Hmm.”
The blacksmith took the sword and looked at it.
It seemed to be thick enough and heavy enough to balance the center of gravity even if the blade was sharpened.
“Yeah. I think it will. But it’s going to take some time.”
“If you’re in battle, I’d appreciate it if you could tell me in person. I’ll teach you the name…”
“Aren’t you going to write it yourself?”
“Yes. To an undergraduate named Schlus Heinkel…”
“It’s a refusal.”
“Yes?”
The old woman quickly turned around.
Of course, for Gawain’s daughter, she could not only forge a blade, but also make a new knife for her.
But making a sword just for a wizard.
The sorcerer’s tribe was the ones who knew how to carry swords only in form.
All the blacks I forge and forge contain souls.
Even if they died, they could not see such swords piling up dust for ornamental or decorative purposes.
“The wizard’s sword is neither forged nor forged.”
“Surely Schlus is a magician, but when it comes to swords, he has a talent that is second to none!”
“what?”
The old woman rolled her eyes.
No one knows that Gawain’s daughter has already surpassed the level of a top knight at the age of 10.
If she hadn’t let go of the sword, she probably wouldn’t have been surprised if she was now in the position of the First Sword of the Empire.
A possessor of talent comparable to that of Gawain’s daughter…?
It was nonsense.
“Trust me. Whether he holds a sword or not will definitely determine the course of the battle.”
“Huh. That much?”
“Yes, please.”
“············”.
I couldn’t help but believe Gawain’s daughter’s words.
As she left, the old blacksmith started working right away, trembling.
Even before the work was finished, the sky turned black and the battle began.
I was sweating profusely, sharpening my sword, and putting the sword on the tip of my index finger.
The sword was lying flat and still, like the surface of a calm lake.
“Perfect.”
Perfect center of gravity and clean cutting power.
In an instant, a training sword was transformed into a practical sword.
I heard the battle situation was tense.
The blacksmith quickly wrapped his sword in cloth and ran.
“No, have you seen all these nonsense people…?”
When the blacksmith reached the wall, he was stunned.
The monsters were climbing up the wall in hordes, and the students were running away in fear.
Is this like an imperial university student…?
I don’t think Schlus Heinkel is among those running away.
A boy caught the eye of the blacksmith who was looking around with his tongue out.
He wasn’t even using magic to fight, but he was still standing there alone.
For some reason, I had a strong feeling that this little boy was like Schlus Heinkel.
“Are you Schlus Heinkel?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
“Then take this.”
“This······?”
He handed over the sword and fell straight back.
indeed.
As soon as he grabbed the sword, the spirit of the guy who just looked stupid changed.
He felt the life behind his back, then turned around and took a stance.
Fenrir.
It was a wolf monster with thick skin and large jaws, which even advanced knights could never see lightly.
If they were wizards, would they use magic to fight?
Somehow it got interesting, the blacksmith looked at him with his arms crossed.
“her······?”
Gnome and Fenrir rushed towards each other at the same time.
His movements were not particularly fast, nor did he mix magic.
Even the internal circuit, which is the basis of the inspection, seemed to have not been activated.
Nevertheless, the flowing sword, without hesitation, blocked Fenrir’s claws and penetrated into his arms.
It was only one cut that made the final decision.
“aa!!!”
It rolled over the ground and passed Fenrir, and soon the monster spurted blood from under its chin.
It had just pierced the skin and cut the carotid artery.
Fenrir rioted, splattering blood in all directions, and then ran towards him again…
Koo!
Before he touched him, he rolled his eyes and fell to the floor.
The guy who didn’t look back at Fenrir in the end was running towards the other monsters.
“It’s definitely not serious…!”
Gawain’s daughter was talking about it, so I guess that’s what I was guessing it wasn’t nonsense.
The blacksmith chuckled and looked elsewhere in the middle of the battle.
Quang! Kuwoong…!
Was it a professor at Imperial University?
And next to him is Gawain’s daughter.
For some reason, the two of them were fighting a different level of battle in one stage, no two stages.
Even the corpses of demons were already piled up like mountains everywhere.
“Um. Cancel. The really unusual things were there.”
The blacksmith shook his head shyly and turned around.
***
“It’s just a thing.”
Even a country that doesn’t know anything about swords will understand.
That this is a great sword.
It was simply a forged blade of a training sword, but it was light, elastic enough, and sharp, so it was easy to wield.
Even if I was alone with this sword, I was able to block the monsters that climbed up this fortress wall.
‘Bape is still unappreciated news….’
To be honest, when I was in a crisis, I thought the bape would pop out of nowhere.
Because I thought it was absorbed by my body for that purpose.
However, Bape still did not respond, and instead, a good sword was obtained.
I’m pissed off bro.

Just don’t go out forever.
Your place is occupied by this wonderful long sword.
Nettle…!
A flash of light came from behind and pierced the head of the orc that was climbing the wall.
I’m surprised…
It was almost right.
When I turned around, the students were shooting their own magic from the fortress, the third line of defense.
For some reason, fighting from the rear made me feel like I was fighting better than before.
“Who is not a wizard.”
In any case, in the middle of a battlefield where life and death come and go, I can’t move in fear, and I only show my skills when safety is secured.
Sergei’s judgment of biting the students behind the situation on the verge of collapse of the second line of defense made sense.
It was a decision he made after grasping the physiology of the sorcerer family.
“I’ll just have to stop this.”
Suddenly, there was quite a bit of room on the top of the fortress wall.
When I looked down the wall, the monsters were still pouring out of the forest, but it looked like less than half of the initial amount.
It seemed like it could have been prevented enough.
After tomorrow, the reinforcements will arrive, so you just have to hold on until today.
‘Is Einz still there?’
The battle was slowly coming to an end, but Einz and Team 1 still hadn’t returned.
Something’s unsettling about this.
Also, I was worried that the team would collapse and become food for the monsters after making all sorts of fuss about being alone.
Was it too much greed to wish for Einz to awaken?
No, still, considering the attitude he showed during this practice, it wasn’t that he didn’t look very promising…
“No? Those aren’t Team 1 students!”
Sergei groaned loudly.
far away At the beginning of the forest, a little farther away, students were running towards this side.
The assistant had lost consciousness and was carried on the back of a student.
But I can’t see Einz…
Am I a little behind?
“Prepare to open the front door! Tree, please fire cover.”
“Eh? Yes?”
“In order for the fire to reach that far, it has to be the personnel on the wall! Please!”
“ah······.”
Sergei pounded Trier’s back with excitement.
By the way, every time I got hit by that, I couldn’t get out without stumbling forward, but I was standing upright in the tree.
Is this really the general’s daughter?
“Huh…”
It was magic that even such a great person had difficulty with.
He stretched out his arms and performed the rite, but just looking at him sweating, it was clear that Trier was quite nervous.
I quickly approached Tree and put a hand on her shoulder.
“On the tree.”
“Hey?!”
“Don’t be surprised.”
“Teacher?”
“Concentration. It’s a big deal if monsters surround the first team.”
“Yes······.”
It was a big deal if the demons blocked the path of the first team.
It was now Treer’s role to prevent that from happening.
I was in a position where I had to conserve my abilities right now, so I was really the only one on the tree.
Sergei must have used up all his magic.
“Don’t be too nervous. We’ll get rid of them one by one.”
“Yeah, but, sir….”
“Tell me.”
“My accuracy is very bad…. I might hit my friends instead of monsters.”
“············”.
Trier looked at me with a terrified look.
Since this is what an honest Trier is saying, it’s not meant to be a lie.
sh*t. Then there was no other way.
“Tree. Fill the rite with magic.”
“Huh? I injected it. But why?”
“I’ll shoot.”
“Uh huh?”
He immediately accessed the core of the rite and took control of it.
The security of Trier’s tactics is too bad…
We need to pay more attention to encryption.
It seems that every time I shoot a magic, the tree unfolds, and the time was too precious to repeat it.
So the formula was edited.
From bob to shot.
If this is the case, one shot will suffice without the need for multiple shots.
“Huh? Then it will spread like crazy? It only increases the chances that your friends will get hit, sir!”
“Keep watching.”
Paang!
drunk firing.
A red light shone in the darkness, then spread out in twenty branches in an instant and flew to the front.
All twenty flashes were manipulated one by one to set the orbit.
Under the fortress wall, red beams of light poured down on the demons, drawing their own curves.
“Aww!”
“Aww!”
A flash of light struck the twenty monsters at the same time, and a loud scream resounded.
As they fell, the road leading to the front door was opened.
Meanwhile, Team 1 approached the front door, and the door opened with only a slight gap and then closed immediately.
Success.
I tapped Trie’s shoulder, who was in awe, and ran to meet the first team.
Trier and Sergei will still have to stay on the wall and fight.
“The teaching assistant is fatally wounded! Do you have any recovery pills? Anyone?”
“············”.
The students were holding onto Sergei’s fallen assistant and weeping.
Seeing that he had a pale face, bleeding from his side, it didn’t seem like it would last long.
“I’m sorry, but I’m running out of recovery pills, so I’ll take you to a doctor.”
“If there is no recovery medicine, the assistant will die!”
I closed my eyes tightly and thought for a moment.
I was able to get a recovery potion immediately by paying 2 shop coins.
Even a low-grade healing drug would cure such a minor trauma quickly.
Although it would take some time to fully recover, I was able to save it with certainty.
‘Ummm…’
But I was collecting coins now.
To get a 50-coin Elixir.
If there is a situation where there is a shortage of just 2 coins at the time when an elixir is needed, there is nothing more terrifying than that.
Then I had to weigh the gravity.
This means that it is necessary to examine whether it is really necessary to save Sergei’s assistant.
This pretty… no, handsome man.
The fact that I can’t even remember the name of Sergei’s assistant, let alone remember, meant that there was little or no mention of it in the original work.
But that did not mean that the assistant’s ability was weak.
Although he didn’t write much in the original story, it was clear that the assistant was quite capable considering that he rescued Einz and the first team from a crisis and led the battle to an advantageous terrain.
It was enough just to save him.
[I purchased 1 Lesser Healing Potion.]
A small glass bottle was held in the hand turned behind her back.
Only then did I approach the first team at a fast pace.
“Here is a lesser healing potion. Use this.”
“You still haven’t used the recovery pill…?”
“············”.
The red-haired girl looked up at me and opened her mouth.
After a brief moment of silence, she immediately poured the healing potion on the assistant’s side.
The affected area was neatly connected, and a nice abdominal muscle appeared.
Now, if you just give me a rest, I’ll wake up soon.
I know this well because I recovered from a similar situation like that.
“Where’s Einz?”
“Einz is….”
He squatted down and asked where Einz was.
Then they either avoided my gaze, or bowed their heads and hesitated to answer.
The red-haired girl bit her lips, so she approached her and urged her.
“hurry!”
“Einz is left alone… He’ll give us time to escape.”
“her.”
Did Einz do such a crazy thing?
What did the assistant do without stopping it?
oh you’ve lost your mind
“sh*t······.”
Einz defied my expectations.
From his self-righteous personality, where everything centered on himself, to a hero who knows how to make sacrifices for his friends…
It is only through the awakening beyond the limits of the original.
But if it doesn’t come back alive, it’s meaningless.

Judging from the fact that he hasn’t returned yet, he must have been surrounded by demons on the way again.
He must have died.
Awakening wasn’t enough.
It’s meaningless if it’s only that level of awakening.
It’s not even worth attracting as my colleague.
So this time, it’s better to think that one extra is going to die and leave it alone.
After all, Einz wasn’t that important in the original story.
“sh*t······.”
“Schlus?”
When I woke up, I realized I was walking towards the front door.
Einz.
A stupid and arrogant guy who only trusts his family and his back.
An unlucky guy with a few talents that don’t fit the subject.
Still, I have to admit that he is a good guy by nature.
“The front door. Please open it.”
He said that he had escaped from the yoke of the original, so can he leave him alone as a writer who is no different than his father?
How it changed
I held the sword tightly in my right hand and stepped out of the front door that opened smoothly.
