89 – Appointment to a professorship (7)
After being insulted, Professor Mary Fritz’s wooden sword flew towards Johan without hesitation.
– Try to distract John Ivorys appropriately. No matter how much he is a master, he is still a young man. His physical training was taught to him by the Sword Saint, so he will be stronger than anyone else here. Even though he is a man, he cannot let down his guard.
If they were idiots who looked down on their status as a Sword Master, they would not have had a professorship at the Imperial Knight Academy. Regardless of their personality, they know reality well.
But training the mind is much more difficult than training the body.
-We continue to provoke the man and provoke him into a loophole. Then, the consumption of physical strength will obviously increase, and more mistakes in swordsmanship may occur as a result. The goal is to finish with 4 people. And if possible, in a group of 3. No matter how much you call yourself a master, if you give more than that, the position of our western masters will be at risk.
Because they knew the sparring records of other masters, they were able to devise a strategy like this.
And Mary Fritz stepped forward to fulfill her role as a vanguard. He had been practicing swordsmanship for over 30 years since he was young, and was a skilled intermediate knight who was still approaching the advanced level of expert even after he was over 40.
Although he is said to have a personality that exposes sodomy and looks down on others, his skills, experience, and years of training never lie. She was given an honorable place among more than 20 Southern combat professors.
-I do not expect victory from you. However, as it increases, reduce Johan Ivorys’ physical strength as much as possible. Mary Fritz, let me trust you.
‘It is an opportunity for success. If you do well, you might be able to work as more than a professor at Central! ‘Maybe a territory will be created!’
Born as the second daughter of a humble local nobleman, she rose to her current position with outstanding talent, but she was not yet satisfied.
Therefore, in her sparring with John, she tried to put forth all of her strength. That was why she made a cheeky provocation against her Master. Although the back of her neck may be a little chilly on the battlefield, she is a local noble with no background. As a member of the Duke of Freibach, who leads a large army including the 2nd princess and her 4 masters, it would be impossible to harm her carelessly.
Men don’t have the guts to do that anyway.
It was supposed to be like that. Mary Fritz had to do that.
-Taaagh—!!
The swinging wooden sword is blocked by the wooden sword lightly held out by John.
Mary Fritz’s body, which had been holding her sword and training longer than Johan was born, automatically calculated the next move and moved.
A secret attack aimed at the bottom by bending her waist.
Her defense continued to be so stable that it could not be said to be the skills of someone who had been training her sword for almost a year.
As several attacks and defenses continue and the leadership of the offense and defense changes, the reactions of those around them also change.
“Now Professor Fritz… “You’re being pushed back, right?”
“I lost momentum. “The hitting point is getting closer and closer to your body.”
“No matter how much he is a master… “I didn’t strengthen my body with mana or increase my destructive power with an auror blade, so it’s so one-sided?”
At most, he is a 21-year-old man. Even if he had been training with a sword since he was young, it would have been a little over 10 years at most.
Mary Fritz’s position as an opponent like that is bound to be depressing in the future.
And Master Yohan’s skills have been properly proven and will soar even further in the future.
In fact, this position, which was created to break John’s momentum, faced difficulties from the start of the battle of the vanguard.
“aaa—!!!”
-Buuung!!!
Mary Fritz quickly and instinctively realized this fact and swung her sword with all her might.
She treated her sword as if it were her own body for a long time, and her desperate sword strikes were by no means light.
Her quick thrusts targeted various parts of John’s body, as if creating an illusion.
But the opponent was not good enough for her attack to work.
-Tak! Widely! Widely! Percussion–!!
Johan lightly deflected all the attacks, and at the end, he deflected her wooden sword loudly, causing Mary Fritz’s body to lose its balance.
Because he was a skilled knight, it was a problem that would have no meaning after a while, but if given that time to John, it turns into a fatal problem.
John quickly stabs the wooden sword into Mary Fritz’s solar plexus.
-Peoeoeook!!
“Keuuu…” !!”
“Oh, you’re not falling down? “If it were real, I would have died. Are you lucky?”
“Ugh, ugh!!”
She was trying to get angry at Johan’s continued provocation, but
“Then why don’t you try blocking it one more time!”
-Bwaaak!!
From Noble mtl dot com
“aaahhh–!!”
She didn’t have time for that.
Every time John’s wooden sword landed on her thigh, her posture lowered with a scream.
And when you did that about 10 times,
“Off, huh…” “
-Sharp!
“Professor next, please come in.”
Only the unconscious moans of a woman who had lost her mind and Johan’s request to find the next challenger echoed softly in the grand training hall.
* * *
“…You have too much hands, Professor Ivorys.”
When the red-haired professor in front of me falls unconscious and the winner is decided, the head of the department, Fraumkh, frowns and criticizes me.
Are your hands too full? What?
I’m not using mana nor am I using a true sword?
If it had been Jingeom in the first place, there would have been a hole in that person’s solar plexus by now. That’s a harsh thing to say, my water lord.
“I’m sure you decided to let it go even if something a bit extreme happened during the sparring, right? And since it was a sparring match, it was a shame that I used a wooden sword. If it had been a real sword, it would have ended a long time ago.”
“Wasn’t it the master who controlled all of that?”
“Oh, because I’m a man. “Unlike us talented women, we are not very delicate with our hands.”
“……”
Oh, what should I do? You were the one who said something because you were a man. Why are you doing this when you say you will act like a man you know?
After hearing my rather provocative remarks, the other side also showed quite a bit of fighting spirit, unlike before.
“I will be the next opponent. “I think there’s something I can teach Professor Ivoris, who is good at swordsmanship but lacks basic etiquette for sparring.”
“No, wait! “Didn’t I decide to do the next sparring sequence, Professor Nerima?”
“Things have changed, haven’t they? I’m the one who ended up like this… !”
Look at these? Did you see this when you saw the sparring earlier?
Even after seeing the fairly one-sided sparring up until now, the professors’ fighting spirit seems to be on fire.
He probably thought that he could show a better side than the professor who just sparred with me. In that case, regardless of whether you win or lose, you will be able to gain more from your faction.
In the meantime, among the noisy crowd, there was a woman with blue hair who was looking at me closely.
With a sharp look that matches her sharp eyes, she looked at my whole body and then gently tasted me with her tongue.
Seeing her provocation that made me feel like I was winning, I decided to up my game a bit.
“Well, it looks like the order hasn’t been decided on that side, so why not try it like this?”
“Professor Ivorys. Please wait a moment. Tidy up now… “
“This has already come to an end, so everyone is attacking me all at once. “It’s boring because it seems like it takes so much time.”
Not a 1-on-1 fight, but 1-on-10… No, now it’s a 1v9 fight. Anyway, I propose a one-on-one sparring.
As soon as I hear those words, the already bad mood becomes even worse.
“Ha? “Don’t be ridiculous!!”
“You’re ignoring us now!!!”
“No matter how much he is a master, there is a limit to how rude he is, especially the new professor!!!”
“You arrogant bastard-!!”
Reactions are very intense, perhaps because they are all knights who are corpses except for their pride.
“John-!! Now, wait a minute, what does that mean… !”
Even the lady Lana behind me.
Aunt Lana’s voice was filled with worry that was different from anything she had ever worried about.
The fight between one and many is definitely a difficult problem. It is never easy unless the skill gap between you and the other person is enormous.
But I’m not stupid enough to say things like this to make myself more disadvantaged.
No, I made this version thinking it would be more beneficial to me.
‘My physical strength is definitely… ‘I don’t think it will be enough to deal with all 10 people.’
After playing a round with the red-haired professor earlier, I felt like I had definitely overestimated my own physical strength.
After all, even if he was rotten, he was not a professor at the Imperial Knight Academy for nothing. Even in the game, the minimum specs of the professors were slightly higher than Eleanor’s when she graduated. Since Freibach has a lot of money, he would have attracted high-quality professors to his side, so it is understandable that he has good skills.
That’s why I asked for a 1-on-9 sparring in an all-or-nothing manner.
I have experience fighting more enemies than this on my own… Oh, I don’t know! It will work out somehow!!
“…Can you take responsibility for that? “Maybe the sparring gets so intense that an unfortunate situation arises where the professors are unable to properly control their swords.”
“Once we become masters, we can accept as many mistakes as we can make from people who are not even masters. “Would you like the department chair to participate as well?”
“…I will decline. “Still, there has to be at least one referee left.”
Oh, it scratches well. It scratches well. Even the expressionless head of the department showed his ears turning red, as if my provocation was quite effective.
“Are you sure you’ll be okay? Even if we all rush in.”
Without saying a word, the blue-haired woman with her tongue flicking at the corner of her mouth approaches me.
And the other professors follow in silence. Slowly spreading the siege towards me.
“There is no need to say anything. “Even though I am a man, I know from what I learned from my teachers that a knight’s words carry more weight than anything else.”
“And among the things you said, you clearly said that it was inevitable even if something ‘a little rough’ happened during sparring. Yes?”
“Of course. “I said it and I did it, so I can never deny it.”
The woman smiles even brighter at my words and raises her wooden sword.
And the smile she made was a smile I had seen quite a few times in this world.
Typically, Agnes, who tried to rape me in the village warehouse, and Majella Weiberg, who tried to attack me in the academy, made that look.
“…Oh, by the way. Really… “
I laugh out loud without realizing it.
These bastards, they don’t really look like I’m a knight or a master, they look like I’m a man.
No, more accurately, it looks like a meat dildo.
“Department Head. “Let’s start sparring again.”
“Since a mutual agreement has been reached, it seems safe to proceed as is, Department Head.”
“No! What nonsense… ! Fraumuh! Right Now… !”
“Then let’s start sparring again from now on. The moment you raise your hand, you know that the sparring begins. Preparation… !”
Has it been three seconds since I said ‘ready’? As soon as the signal from Department Head Fraumh raised his hand, the blue-haired professor took command of the professors.
“Spread out! Professor Thelin, to the left! I am at the forefront! And Professor Catherine… !”
But I don’t feel like I’m going to lose.
No, more precisely, if my sword was going to be broken by these b*tches, I wouldn’t be able to stand here.
“Hit your head, you b*tches.”
This is the third period of true education, for f*ck’s sake.
With a slightly heated chest, but a slightly cooler head, I grabbed the wooden sword and ran toward the enemies.
