I Became an Academy Baldo User

Siam (3)

The first time he fell from a white rose, I instinctively recognized that he was a basic swordsman.

The knowledge to know the characteristics of Baek Hwa-cheol, which he would never have had the opportunity to meet, and the ability to deal with speculation at such a young age.

Both were far beyond the level of a freshman who had just entered the academy.

I don’t want to admit it, but I have to admit it. That that guy is one of those people who are often called geniuses.

But, most importantly, he lacked humility and an objective view of himself.

‘The young man… .’

Previously, I was told not to hold the sword again, but sometimes I do stupid things with just one stroke.

For that guy, this opportunity will be a good opportunity to immediately know his skills.

‘There’s no point in trampling on the young shoots here, even if you can’t cut a white rose, it’s nothing I said before… .’

In the midst of such thoughts, an intense fighting spirit that even non-swordsmen could feel emanated from his body.

When I unintentionally raised my head, there was a completely different person standing there, glaring at the white rose with bitter eyes.

As if I had forgotten that I was even here, I swallowed the saliva that had accumulated on my lips without realizing it.

– Dumpling!!

Did he gather speculation in his sword?

The scabbard, pulsing like the heart of a sprinting horse, shook as if it would explode at any moment.

‘That young man has such a speculation… !!’

Feeling that the amount of speculation was unusual, he turned his gaze to the white rose, but the white rose did not seem to be affected by the speculation at all.

In other words, that kid is in complete control of such an intense and vast amount of speculation.

perhaps… I wondered if the unexpected result was actually happening, so I hurriedly tried to stop him… .

“Sorry——!”

Faster than I could call him, a flash of flame like a spark from his scabbard collided with the white rose.

A roar heard at the moment of Baldo and a huge shock wave that blows away the swords around it.

As a potter, I have watched the leading swordsmen wield their swords several times, and I have noticed that this is a phenomenon that occurs naturally when the sword is swung over the speed of sound.

-Keeing!!

With intense fighting spirit, he defeated the White Rose’s helmet with a sound like tearing and killing the black metal of the man who crossed the speed of sound.

If someone was wearing a helmet, this blow would have split the head in two.

The sword that defeated the White Rose’s helmet did not stop there, and then collided with the White Rose’s breastplate.

The sword, which had been slashed with force as if defeating the helmet earlier, ripped the chest to the breastplate, and continued to cut through the entire body of the armor.

But for a while… .

The white rose, which had been in contact with the sword full of intense fighting for a long time, immediately demonstrated its unique ability and prevented the sword from going any further.

If someone had worn it, the sword of the guy who would have cut off all his internal organs continued without stopping, but the sword that could not withstand the speculation soon exploded and ended.

Fortunately, I ended up with no injuries, as fragments of the exploding sword went forward, but it wasn’t a white rose.

How does it feel to meet your runaway daughter at a prostitute village?

The white rose, which had been tanned and torn from the impact of the explosion, had turned into a truly horrific form.

Thinking that the beautiful and innocent fortress of Baek-ah had changed so much, my fists were clenched involuntarily.

I felt like smashing that guy’s face right away. But I thought it was great beyond that.

‘… I have no choice but to admit this.’

The white rose was able to maintain its shape, but it was not a lump of iron placed under it as a pedestal.

Of course, the pieces of iron and even the ground beneath them were torn apart as if trampled by a giant.

I even thought that if the white rose had not acted as a cushioning material, the ground in the area would have collapsed.

No, it was not my imagination, it must have been like that.

“… Who taught you that sword?”

The man who looked into the air with an impression of resentment for not being able to completely cut the white roses said.

“What I formally learned… Should I be a local swordsman? One of the feet I learned from him. I learned the rest by self-study.”

“Is that… .”

Hearing that he learned the power and swordsmanship almost by himself to handle such speculation with ease, he did not feel any surprise.

Even gods sometimes make mistakes, because sometimes people who are not human like this come up.

“Now that you have cut the White Rose’s helmet, I will make you a reverse-edged sword or something.”

“Then the money is here… .”

“No, I don’t need money.”

I declined the money bag he was about to hand over, and I continued to tell him.

“Not just this time, I don’t need money in the future.”

“… In the future?”

I tilted my head as if I didn’t expect the next one, so I continued.

“Literally. From now on, if you ask for a sword, I won’t take any money. If you need special materials, you will have to get them.”

“I don’t understand. So that’s good for me, but what’s the benefit to the old Gong?”

“It’s an advantage… Of course, if it is beneficial.”

For a potter that the sword I made is used by a suitable master, there is an advantage that is more important than anything else.

That alone is worth tens or hundreds of times greater than money.

“… Thank you for saying that.”

I didn’t expect such a word to come out of my mouth, so the blushing man’s lips twitched.

“But can I ask you just one thing?”

“Yes, just say anything.”

“The skill I showed you a while ago… Why did you write it while it was delivered?”

That’s as powerful as shooting from an enclosed space, but wouldn’t it be better to use it after the feet, considering the stamina used to control the fighting and rampaging swords consumed in the scabbard?

I have no intention of denying that it is a powerful technique, but I was curious as to why he did it.

“… … This is because foot swordsmanship is the strongest swordsmanship, so it was more effective to use it in a leaded state.”

“What nonsense… It’s much better to just write it in the state of being bald――.”

It was not explained at all, so when I asked that question, the man who had blushed more than before shouted with evil.

“Leaded!! in condition!! writing!! Because it is more efficient!!! Do you know?!”

“… … Yes, let’s do it like that.”

All geniuses say they’re crazy, but this guy is probably just crazy regardless of his talent.

‘He’s like a troll… .’

*****

I came out of the smithy and looked up at the blackened sky and thought.

‘How the hell did this happen?’

To be honest, I don’t quite understand how this happened.

I just came here to get a reverse bladed sword to safely shoot a sword at people, and now I have a top-notch potter that can be used for free.

‘no way… Is this all thanks to Baldo?’

No, no matter how much I think about it, there is no other reason other than that.

Even so, the only thing I did was to argue with the old man and break the armor that the old man had commissioned with his feet.

Although the old man was ignorant of swordsmanship and misunderstood the effectiveness of his technique, it was clear that he was fascinated by my beautiful baldancing skills.

I’ve known for a long time that Baldo is an all-around technique for all workshops, but I’m sure it will be helpful in making connections like this.

‘I’d rather not send a present to the youngest young-ae, but just show her feet once and finish it?’

As I was seriously thinking about it, I heard a voice calling me from afar.

“Hey, Ian!!”

When I turned my head, someone said that Victor, who had just broken up in the dormitory, was waving at me.

“I think it’s a little late, did it take that long?”

“It’s a popular store, so we had to wait in line.”

Victor said so, but he had nothing in his hand.

“Then, what sweets to present?”

“They said the store would deliver it to Young-ae’s villa. They seem to want to send me the one I just made.”

“Right.”

Hearing that they deliver desserts that are nothing else in this world, I felt a strange sense of incongruity.

However, it is a dessert made for the amount of money for 10 katana, so of course there must be a service like that.

“By the way, what kind of dessert are you bringing? Are you going to come dressed in gold leaf?”

“It might be. But is gold leaf edible?”

“I don’t know.”

I and Victor were also nobles, but I had no such knowledge because I was far from the word wealth.

To be honest, it’s not something we eat, so it doesn’t matter what comes out, but considering it’s a 10-piece katana dessert, I was curious about what would come out.

“By the way, you said you went to get a sword, but seeing you’re here until this late, didn’t you find it?”

“… I did save it. I smashed one in the process. Still, looking at the results, I don’t have to pay any money in the future, so it’s good to see the results.”

Victor looked at me with eyes wondering what the hell happened, but honestly, I have nothing to say.

To put it bluntly, I had nothing to say except that it happened because I was fighting and arguing.

“Well, we’ll talk about this later. I’m out for a bit, but if it’s still dinner, would you like to go eat together? Let’s have some drinks while we’re eating.”

“That’s good. But let’s drink in moderation. I have to go to Jessica Youngae tomorrow.”
