Afterwards, the black hemisphere disappeared, revealing the fallen Allen and the towering Aslan, which ended relatively blandly.
But the aftermath was not refreshing at all.
Regina officially proclaims that Aslan has become Master Knight.
Originally, it was not something to brag about in front of many people that the mind sword was awakened as much as compatibility was important.
However, Aslan’s mind sword is a space-holding mind sword that cannot be recognized from the outside.
Exactly what happened inside the black hemisphere.
I couldn’t tell just by looking at what effect that had.
Aslan also showed his sword in front of others because his sword was a space-holding sword, so there was no problem with confidentiality.
After that, Aslan was summoned to Stellarium, and the students had to wake up from excitement and come to class the next morning.
“What’s the mood like?”
Entering the classroom, Noah caught Carlos in a strange atmosphere that he felt from the morning and asked.
“That happened yesterday, so why is the atmosphere so stagnant? I fell asleep when I fell asleep. What is this again?”
“Why why? Of course, since that happened yesterday.”
The birth of a new Master Knight is definitely something to celebrate, transcending the distinction between degrees and apostles.
But someone’s victory meant someone’s loss, and in this class was Allen’s younger brother, Felix.
“So everyone is watching?”
“If the situation is like this, I have no choice but to be concerned, right? Because all of our jockeys don’t want to look bad at Felix.”
“Hmm.”
Unlike the others, Noah had no intention of just watching this.
He immediately sat down next to Felix and asked directly.
“What about senior Allen?”
“They say it’s better to be relieved than to lose awkwardly.”
Felix was also uncomfortable with other people looking at him.
He was told as if he had been waiting for Noah as soon as he arrived.
“Well, in many ways it’s an unprecedented case.”
In the past, it was common for hermits who were stuck in the mountains to have skills beyond that of knights.
However, it was the first time in history that a student within the regular curriculum became a master knight before becoming a knight.
I can’t help losing to Master Knight.
I lost, but it didn’t sound like a good fight.
Among the many knights in this world, there are very few master knights.
Genius talent and bone-breaking effort were just the minimum conditions.
This wasn’t something that Jin lacked.
“Still, it seems that the shock was quite big. He said he would go to closed training before graduation.”
“Lung tube training?”
“Because you got all your grades.”
There were still four final semesters left before Allen and Aslan’s graduation.
If Allen could awaken his mind sword by the end of the year, it would not be without a chance.
Of course, it’s not something that can be done by working hard, but it’s also true that there’s quite a bit of time left to give up without even trying.
“You are strong.”
Even if he just lost, it was a person who was resentful.
But being hit by such a shining star and still being able to burn with enthusiasm was definitely something amazing.
– Hung-seong-gung-seong.
“hmm?”
Anyway, while Noah was talking to Felix, whispers arose around him.
-Come to think of it, Noah also lives in the Black Moon Dormitory, right?
-It is the same as the apostle and the degree. Something about the composition is similar to those two.
‘Are you comparing me and Felix to senior Allen and Aslan?’
At the time Aslan had done such a splendid thing, he already knew that the Black Moon would also receive attention.
Tiu and other seniors, who had a relatively quiet school life, would also become noisy around them.
“Never mind those words, Noah. By the way, when are you going to return to ranking matches?”
“You care most.”
Absorption of a disaster-level elixir is not something that can be done in a day or two, but Noah felt something while manipulating his superpowers with the principle of an intangible sword.
‘Auras that have not yet been absorbed can be used as external powers.’
However, unlike the intangible sword, this was something that happened inside the body.
If you touch it wrong, it goes to the goal.
really.
So, I needed time to practice so that I could use it in real life.
“I’m going up first without waiting. No matter how much you raise your ranking, you will catch up soon.”
“Seeing that you’re confident, there’s no need to worry.”
The aftermath of the 1st place match shook the ranking match between the high rankers and even the ranking match among the immovable 15 players.
Amid such chaos, Noah silently learned to win by following the traces of the sword recorded in the Promised Land.
And the point where ten days were left until the end of the third semester.
Noah, who had withdrawn the whole time, appeared in the ranking match for the first time.
* * *
Anais Valen, ranked 752 in the Nightray ranking.
Her specialty was to read the opponent’s movements and subdue them in an instant while both swords were facing each other.
Through the swords facing each other, it reads the opponent’s breathing, muscle movements, direction of gaze, and even the flow of thoughts.
“No matter how much you are a hot topic rookie, I won’t be easy!”
With this counter-sword skill, she was able to secure a place in the top ranks of Nightray.
but,
“Sorry, but I read better.”
“… … !”
As soon as he came to his senses, Anais realized he was lying on the arena floor.
Noah, who knocked her down, wasn’t looking at her anymore.
“next.”
#696 Chuck Preston.
He comes from a well-to-do family belonging to the 8th generation family.
He has only one child, so he is a high-ranking player with a huge number of Auras, having been invested in his family since he was young.
“No matter how great you are, the fundamental difference in strength cannot be helped.”
Although he was good at slashing opponents with the power from his aura,
Quaang!
“Sorry, but my strength is stronger.”
He couldn’t beat Noah with the amount of aura.
517 Kara.
From noble mtl dot com.
An Ambu Knight-style apostle student.
A top ranker who showed a tremendous uptrend this semester through special matches such as team matches and survival matches on the day of the ranking match.
“He knocks them down without even knowing what happened to them. Can you find me?”
“I’m sorry, but Mia hides better.”
Noah’s stormy winning streak continued even after that.
433rd.
365th.
256th.
189th.
and 100th.
A high ranker in the top 100 who is sponsored by the imperial family.
Kane scratched his head as if in trouble and came out of the arena.
“Why does everyone seem to be wondering how I will lose? Is this the feeling of a sacrifice?”
Now that the 3rd semester is over.
The craze for ranking matches that had swept Night Ray had also subsided, and it was an atmosphere where everyone was looking for their seats according to their skills.
Even in the midst of that, the only ones who kept raising the rankings were Noah, who started late, and Felix and Tiu, who started at the bottom.
Perhaps even Yunia thought that catching up in the rankings in one semester was unreasonable, so she was slowing down with the goal of becoming a top ranker.
“Ahahahaha… … I am sorry about that.”
“it’s okay. Anyway, 100th place is a high ranker, so if you don’t run to the top quickly, you’ll leave. Even if it wasn’t you, the challengers lined up.”
The 100th place, which separates high rankers from high rankers, was a place where one could not settle down even if one tried to settle down.
‘I can’t be more complacent.’
Even though Noah had been chasing this far, Felix had risen to 41st place.
The majority of the opinion was that it was natural for Felix to rise like that since he was the descendant of the 8th family, but Noah didn’t know about that.
He has to catch up to Felix, and to do that, he can’t be stuck in 100th place.
“However, that doesn’t mean you can’t remain a rogue hurdle that can easily jump over dogs or cows. I want to stay here as long as possible.”
At the same time as each other’s swords pounded the floor, Noah rushed forward while casting black magic.
Kwaaang!
As a high ranker, Kane skillfully blocked Noah’s attack.
‘Is it not easy being a high ranker? Still, I have the upper hand in strength.’
The power from the disaster-level aura was unmatched by anyone in the same generation.
However, Kane was not such an easy opponent.
Kiyiing!
It detects intangible swords that are about to be created in all directions with its sixth sense and cancels them out.
However, Kane was superior to Noah when it came to handling the intangible sword.
Papabak!
An intangible sword that could not be counteracted aims at Noah.
Since the intangible sword was inevitably less powerful than the sword you wielded and wielded, there was no problem in blocking it, but it was unavoidable to be pushed back in a number fight.
Inversely, Kane’s attack was blown away.
Noah started with the first attack, but had no choice but to turn to the defensive.
‘It’s like when I fought Ophelia-senpai in the past.’
At the time, Noah, who could not use the intangible sword, was unable to respond due to being stuck in the air due to the continuously flying spears.
Kane’s intangible sword was much lighter than that, but it was fast enough to tie a person down.
“As expected, is this the limit for a half intangible sword?”
“… … !”
everyone knows,
However, during his winning streak, Noah has never used a technique yet.
Jigsaw Jigsaw!
“Brain Myungsin.”
Noah, who took out the attribute transformation for the first time, moved out of the opponent’s attack range with a high-speed movement that the intangible sword could not follow.
If I can’t pull out my intangible sword, I use the opponent’s intangible sword as a stepping stone.
Unlike Thunder Myung, which was uncontrollable by increasing all speeds, Thunder Myungsin can be controlled by purely focusing on movement speed.
Stepping on the intangible sword and digging in while showing off splendid three-dimensional maneuvers.
But surprisingly, Kane reacted to that speed.
‘I can’t do that!’
If it was an ordinary sword skill, Noah’s Black Eye shouldn’t touch it at all, and it was impossible to block and drain it normally.
The fact that the first attack was blocked was only possible because the intangible sword was overlaid.
But this time, I didn’t have time to cover the intangible sword,
Kagagagak!
Noah’s black child sharpened Kane’s sword skill.
puck!
The Aura recoil that occurred when the sword was forcibly broken.
Noah kicked and blew Kane, who had been weakened by the shock.
It couldn’t be said that he had defeated someone as strong as Kane, but this was a ranking match, not a real match.
“Keuk, is it an unexpected outing… … .”
Defeat high-rankers at high speed.
“Let’s go up first.”
Kane looked at Noah and smiled broadly.
A new wave was coming to the Nightray.
* * *
At the same time, Stellarium’s Purple Sector.
Aslan, who was certified as Master Knight by the Emperor of Luminosity, was stuck in the Purple Sector, the highest level of the Imperial Archives, until graduation.
A Purple Sector that Master Knights can browse in exchange for leaving their swordsmanship behind.
This place was no different from a sanctuary where the swordsmanship of all master knights that existed in the history of the empire remained.
“But it’s not here.”
However, in the Purple Sector, which is said to have ‘all’ records, there was no swordsmanship that Aslan was looking for.
“No matter how much I look around. That means… … .”
All the books in this place were no different from the treasures of the knights.
But that wasn’t what Aslan wanted.
What he is looking for is just a swordsmanship record of an anonymous knight recorded in a diary without even a title.
“Is the Book of Unknown Swords kept by the Emperor himself?”
