108 – New Skill # 4
I am overflowing with joy right now. With this momentum, you might be able to acquire new skills. It was the first time I had just done it, but I’ve been successful so far!
“Totally just, huh? Mana Master! Sword Master done!”
So I go and brag to my friends.
“hehehe, Geuncheol-ah. Please stop the obscenity.”
“Seriously f*cking.”
Sihu said while giggling, and Yuri laughed and hit the candle.
“No, Yuri. What if I blow the candles here? How good am I now?”
“I’ll do well with that, you bastard. Hey. There’s still a long way to go to be happy with trivial things, right?”
“That’s true. Well, should I say I’ve seen my potential? It looks like a small thing, but it’s sure to be a great improvement.”
If I hone my skills one by one like this, I will be able to use my strength to some extent even if a major incident erupts later. You’ll be fighting alongside your friends, but don’t hold back.
Why are you giggling so much?
“Sheesh.”
Isn’t that what Mr. Ryu suddenly said while crossing his arms?
“You’ve grown tired of talking about trivial things. It’s noisy, you Taliban bastard. It’s just that he likes it after doing just that much trick. There’s really nothing to brag about.”
You dare say such harsh things to me!
“No, Mr. Ryu?”
“Do you have something to say?”
As I approached and put my face to you, he avoided my gaze and spoke exasperatedly. If you look at this guy, he has something like that to seduce me.
“I went to your house and had a meal with my father and mother. If I said such harsh things, eh? Ryuna might scold me.”
“Shut up! Just one bite to eat…! But what is Ryuna?”
“Ryu’s older sister. Ryuna for short.”
This is Ryu Ara.
“It’s such an absurd abbreviation that I’m so excited I can’t even say it! Anyway, it’s too early to like that kind of trick!”
Is it too early to like it?
This bastard can’t…!
“Hey! Mr. Ryu! Seeing you say that!”
“What?”
“You bastard is jealous when he sees my shield skills! Hi-go! You childish bastard! Hey! Why are you angry with me like that!”
This works 100%.
You talk to me with a giggling thought of teasing me like that.
“Ha ha ha…!”
As expected, Mr. Ryu’s face started to blush really rapidly.
“Sounds absurd!”
“Well, even if Mr. Ryu is good at cutting, he might be weak at this kind of trick. I understand. But if you work hard, you can do it like me-“
“Please stop f*cking!”
—-Damn it!
Suddenly, the guy took a pose!
“From now on, I’ll show you a real shield, so stop talking about bullsh*t!”
“What? Showing skill?!”
“Shut up and watch! Haap!”
The moment Ryu got excited!
ㅡFalchik!
A small circular protective plate was suddenly created in front of Mr. Ryu’s eyes!
“Ohh! A perfect circle!”
The shape is very neat!
I’m also a bit of an authority now. Just by looking at its shape, you can tell how well it handles magic. Making such a neat prototype itself proved Mr. Ryu’s ability.
“But one?”
“You have a lot to ask for! Haap!”
The moment Mr. Ryu got his spirits up again.
—-Damn it!
—-Damn it!
The plasma membrane begins to proliferate.
Two pieces. No, four?
“I can’t believe it! Eight?!”
While I am in awe, the protective plates begin to circle around Mr. Ryu like a satellite to protect him. It’s also quite fast…!
“It would be more comfortable to cover the whole body with a protective film. Well, this has its own advantages.”
ㅡPain!
At the moment, the protective plates that had been spinning around Mr. Ryu exploded and completely stuck to each other, forming a circular protective shield. So Mr. Ryu, who became like he was inside a soap bubble, looked at me and said.
“Do you understand now, Taliban? There is such a gap between you and me.”
“What crazy! This bastard is already at this level…!”
“Heh, I know that. So, don’t be satisfied with playing jokes that are not as good as those little tricks.”
Mr. Ryu, who left those words, avoided the seat with a very satisfied expression on his face. Every time I see that bastard, I feel like I’m dying of laughter because my emotions are so honest.
“Bastard. Your skills are certain.”
“Yes, Kim Geun-cheol. Mr. Ryu, no. Ryu Chun-hwi, there is nothing wrong with that.”
“No Leona?”
“I did well, but I can’t be satisfied with that.”
Leona, who walked confidently, joined me. This is a big deal. If you go on like this, listen to her nagging again.
Let’s ask a question!
“Wait Leona! I have a question for you!”
“What is it?”
“So, what do you think is the difference between making such a small shield and putting on a shield?”
“That’s it, well. Wouldn’t that be magical efficiency?”
Efficiency?
“If you put on a full-body shield, you don’t have to worry about it, but it consumes a lot of magic power. Besides, it covers the whole body, so the defense is equal, and it has the downside of being a bit low.”
“Yes.”
“However, if you make this miniaturized shield exactly where it is hit.”
—-Paat.
Leona created a shield-shaped protective plate.
A shield with a cross pattern on it.
“It consumes little mana, and as Instructor Kawar showed me earlier, it is possible to instantly make the protective plate thicker to defend against a powerful blow. Of course, it is inconvenient to have to operate it yourself.”
“Oh.”
In other words, this was a skill only for deceased people. The skill of blocking an attack by consuming only the necessary amount of mana with extreme control.
If you are not a master, it will be difficult to use.
“In other words, the specialized part is different.”
“Yes.”
Leona nodded her head as she continued her explanation.
“A hero with overflowing magic power can fight with a shield on, but a hero with low magic power needs to make the best use of this miniaturized shield to cover the difference. Whatever it is, you can train according to your own characteristics and style. Will.”
“Exactly what I just thought. Thanks for the nice explanation, Leona.”
“What? Anyway, Kim Geun-chul did a good job. As expected, he’s really good at things like this even though he’s not good at studying.”
“Hey. What do I always say? I’m a real propaganda.”
“This is a real battleground. Whoa whoop. Stop pretending to be cute!”
“When did I pretend to be cute!”
No matter what, Leona seemed in a great mood. Because he hasn’t been particularly nagging since then. Then that would be good
Anyway, I practiced shield creation using class time. In this case, you need to quickly build up your skills.
“Geuncheol-ah, do you keep practicing?”
“Oh Sihoo. I’m continuing.”
“Would you like to take a look?”
“Hurry up! Hurry up, what are you doing!”
“Stop making a real fuss.”
Sihoo came right next to me. I proudly showed Sihoo my shield. It definitely came out better than when I first did it.
“Still, it’s really good for the first day.”
“Isn’t it?”
“Should we practice a bit more since we started? Geuncheol-ah. I’m going to hit you with a knife, so try to block it.”
“Practice blocking?”
Good!
“It just feels like a real fight and it’s good. Sihoo. That’s exactly what my favorite training is.”
“Do it quickly, do it. Geuncheol-ah.”
“Okay, Ahab!”
—-Damn it!
Creates a shield right in front of my eyes. The shape is a bit out of square, but that’s great.
“Move it like a satellite.”
“Uh…!”
Concentrate and move little by little.
“Sihoo, hurry up. Attack.”
“I’ll take it slow.”
“Come on!”
—-Damn it!
Sihoo grabs the sword and swings it in slow motion. I slowly moved the shield to the expected impact point.
ㅡToouk.
From noble mtl dot com
Sihoo’s blade touched my shield.
“Ohhh! Good! Successful defense! Hey, but it’s been a while since I’ve been able to block this slow sword. If I’m going to play on active duty, shouldn’t I also block bullets with this?”
“Well, that’s right. But actually, it’s an advanced technique. Learning this… Is probably an exercise to get used to making a shield. It’s like a prerequisite skill, so to speak.”
A prerequisite skill?
“If you learn the basics with this, you will be able to properly handle the shield.”
“Oh.”
In other words, it is the tech tree of skills.
As Shihoo said, before making a whole body protective shield, it is to develop a sense by making and operating such a small protective plate.
Why isn’t that common in games? In order to learn a specific skill, you have to take the previous skill level up to a certain level.
“Roughly understood.”
I think this will be more difficult than the shield. Anyway, let’s do some practice with this.
* * *
After school.
As usual, I gained experience by sparring with Yuri. Yuri distributed workshops according to my skills, and at the end, I repeated the sparring in the form of using a little more skill to suppress me.
“Ugh, it’s hard!”
“Wake up dude. Where is this bastard lying down?”
“Let me lie down.”
“Oh!
Yuri giggled and tapped my shoe with the tip of her toe.
“But it still feels good.”
“What? Have your skills improved?”
“Uh. You cut all the antilarries to death last time. I think it’s probably because of that. Should I say that I’ve lost a little bit of fear? I can feel that.”
“As expected!”
Yes.
I have also grown up.
I don’t know much about it myself, but my teacher will figure it out right away.
“This is all, huh? It’s because Yuri taught me well. hehehehe.”
“Damn it. Words really f*cking make me laugh. Hey. But these days, Kim Geun-cheol and you and Leona.”
“Me?”
“Are you two dating?”
What?
“No. Dating. It’s not like that.”
“No? Hasn’t Leona taken care of her like her mother lately?”
“That’s the way it is.”
This isn’t because we’re dating, it’s because Leona takes good care of people. Look at Leona’s spirit of service. No matter how you look at it, she is an angel herself.
“Then are you dating or a son?”
“No! What are you talking about!”
“Big… Or not.”
Yuri giggled even after Gee said it was funny.
Yuri laughed for a while and said.
“Are you free on your weekend?”
“Weekend? I can’t go on Saturday because I go to volunteer work. I haven’t decided anything on Sunday yet.”
“Then let’s go to the dojang together with me.”
“What?”
A stamp?
* * *
After that swordsmanship lesson.
I sent a message to Sihoo and headed for the dormitory. I said we’d go grocery shopping together and cook together today.
“Shield!”
I’m practicing making protective plates on the way.
ㅡ Tiring.
