Chapter 8
Episode 8 – Training (1)
On that day, the time to practice swordsmanship approached, and we arrived at Tren Park.
As I pulled out my sword and looked at the blade to practice swordsmanship, I blurted out a word without even realizing it.
“What is it, Sibal?”
The sword has changed. Sure that too.
Unlike yesterday, when only turquoise stamps were originally engraved, there were black stamps.
‘Something… Even the feeling has changed.’
I turned on the weapon information just in case.
[Dark Sword of Swiftness]
Grade: A-
An artifact that a young wizard made to show to his master, following his master whose hobby was making artifacts.
It’s the best work of his life, but he couldn’t show it because his teacher died on the day the sword was completed.
Since then, this sword has been forgotten and left in the corner of the laboratory for a long time.
After some time, someone engraved an additional magic mark on it, making it stronger.
A sword that has become much more powerful cannot be broken at all.
※All stats increase by 2.
※Can absorb external magic power.
The absorbed magical power is stored in the black magic imprint.
It is also possible to release and attack when desired.
※ By injecting or absorbing mana, acceleration magic can be recharged up to 5 times a day.
“Can you see that I am crazy?”
Turns out, is this all my dream?
If I’m not crazy….
“The f*cking grade is weird?”
Jumping from C grade to A- grade overnight?
If it’s an A- level weapon, calling it somewhere is worth it.
‘Of course I won’t sell it.’
Rather than that, the problem is that information floating in the information window.
[After some time, someone engraved an additional magic mark to make it stronger.]
‘I’m sure there wasn’t a phrase like this yesterday, right? Right?’
That means that between yesterday and today, someone unknowingly engraved a magic imprint on it.
‘… Even I, who has a [Sixth sense], Was engraved with magic without my knowledge?’
The first thing that comes to mind when looking at the enhanced dark attribute is ‘Dina Polaris’, the main character of [Oeyeongdae], But….
‘It can’t be.’
When Dina, possessed by [Akanakseong], Got angry at me for snatching her talent, she got angry. She had no reason to help.
Although Dina can only use dark magic and she is a munchkin, she came to mind first.
It is not at all impossible for other people to use dark magic.
Most people have no aptitude for the dark attribute, so very few people can use dark magic, and even that barely has the aptitude, so it’s only better to use other magic than to use dark magic.
‘It would be correct to think that it was originally engraved and was made so that it would appear automatically when the owner comes along.’
From noble mtl dot com
In fact, there are many cases where you pretend to be a japtem and actually use it, saying that it has a hidden ability.
And thinking this is more realistic than thinking that an authority in dark magic who is watching over me somewhere has put a magic inscription on my sword.
“Well, is it a benefit anyway?”
With this, you won’t have to worry about weapons for a while.
Now that I have a swordsmanship teacher, the only thing left to do is to become stronger.
‘By the way, I’m glad Se-Rin Pak readily accepted it.’
She honestly expected to be rejected and went with the idea that it would be even better if she made it, but she accepted, which surprised her.
I accepted it because I was sorry that I misunderstood that it was just a date invitation and I liked calling you senior….
‘Maybe the senior was a villain… !’
It was an attempt to eat me… !
I muttered nonsense in my heart, then glanced to the side.
‘As expected.’
It seemed to be popular for some reason before, but I could definitely tell from yesterday when I got a [Sixth sense].
An unknown person wearing an artifact wrapped around his body with faint magical powers was watching me train.
The faint curvature of her robe, which was wrapped around her, indicated that she was a woman.
She actually doesn’t know anything about her except that she’s still a woman.
And now she….
‘… Sweets… Are eating…….’
He had taken off the mask that looked like an artifact and was chewing on it very excitedly.
Because the robe she was wearing was also an artifact, I couldn’t see her face properly….
It was wearing an artifact, but somehow it wasn’t wary.
It doesn’t look like it has any nefarious purpose, nor does it look particularly strong.
If you’re a true strong person, you wouldn’t believe too much in your own artifacts and be wary, but that person….
‘Because I believe in artifacts so much that I don’t even hide, I eat snacks right next to me….’
There seemed to be a high probability that he was watching it purely out of boredom.
It was strange because I felt like I was being stalked…. It wasn’t a person with bad intentions, so it wasn’t anything bad.
‘Is it because I’m an official?’
Come to think of it, even before the possession, I had a bit of an obsession.
‘The day after tomorrow, I will start teaching swordsmanship to my senior, so there will be very few opportunities in the future. Shall we take a walk today?’
I wondered, ‘Am I too insensitive to safety?’, But as long as I have a [Sixth sense], Even if there are artifacts, I cannot fail to notice hostility or intent to kill.
‘Let’s think about it after finishing the training first.’
The first thing to check is the changed sword performance.
First of all, it doesn’t seem like the weight has changed much.
Next, let’s inject mana, and the sword will pull and absorb the mana.
It seems that it is possible to absorb the magic power first in the mark I want.
First of all, the turquoise imprint is charged first, but it consumes more mana than yesterday, perhaps because the number of acceleration magic has increased from 3 to 5.
After charging all the turquoise imprints, I injected magic into the black imprints.
But….
‘Crazy. Is there an end to this?’
The mana flows endlessly.
I thought that even if I put all my mana into it, I wouldn’t be able to fill it up, so I cut it moderately.
Black energy flows naturally from the sword as the black imprint absorbs magic power.
‘If I put magic into the black mark, will it basically add the dark attribute?’
When the sword was created in that state, a sword with a black, dark attribute was created.
For reference, swordsmanship became natural and immediately available after acquiring [Master of Swordsmanship].
‘This will be quite useful.’
Dark attribute is an attribute that is said to be one of the most fraudulent attributes from [Akanakseong] To [Oeyoungdoe].
Compared to other attributes, compatibility is superior, and destructive power is also extraordinary.
I wouldn’t normally use it because it’s so fraudulent that it gets in the way of my growth, but it will be of great help in dangerous moments.
‘But I’ll have to try it.’
As I swung the sword while wearing a black sword, I felt as if the air had been ripped apart for a moment.
It’s more of a scam than I thought.
‘And the next experiment… Didn’t I say that I could release the absorbed magic?’
Let’s wrap the black magic power around the sword again and swing it with the idea of ‘releasing’ it.
The black energy was shot straight out.
‘Wow, crazy.’
It’s a shame that Tren Park is nothing more than an empty lot.
“Ah… this.”
And again. Even though only part of the charged amount was discharged, it left a seriously large sword mark on the ground.
‘First of all, this is a seal.’
If I use it against people, even by mistake, that day I will become a murderer.
‘Anyway, it’s ambiguous to call this black magic every time… It doesn’t even sound right.’
I decided after thinking about what to call this for a while.
‘Because it is a black imprint, it is said that the imprint is a jet-black imprint… The sword is… Dark sword…….’
Then I suddenly thought.
‘I don’t think anything has changed?’
But it must have been because it looked a little more delicate.
For reference, I decided to simply call the sword [Shinam Sword] For short.
There was no name that came to mind when I released the sword skill, so I put it on hold for now.
‘Has the imprint of Swiftness changed?’
Now that the number of recharges has increased, something may have changed.
‘By the way, why is the imprint of swiftness? It’s engraved with acceleration magic, so shouldn’t it be called the inscription of acceleration?’
Probably the one who named the sword [Sword of Speed] Is a young wizard, so he knows why…….
‘I think it’s just a name given to the taste of a young wizard.’
I think it would be better to just say that and move on.
I took a rough stance and swung the sword using acceleration magic.
“Huh?”
When I closed my eyes and opened them, I was flying in the air without missing the sword.
“Evil!”
As it was, he screamed and fell to the floor, rolling over and over.
“Crazy! What?”
Could it be that this happened after being strengthened? It’s so fast that I can’t use it…….
Then, without thinking, I looked at the number of remaining charges….
“… ?”
[Remaining 2/5]
‘Did I use three at once?’
Somehow, I thought it was too fast.
‘I didn’t know I could use several at once.’
Unexpectedly, I came across good information.
However, this was still too early for me to handle, so I decided to use it after I got stronger, and I picked up the sword again and got into my stance.
‘I only use one this time… ‘
Wedge!
I was swung as I wanted! Somehow it seemed to be a little faster than yesterday, but it succeeded in holding on to the spot.
‘Probably because all stats increased by 2 due to the effect of the [Swift Darkness Sword]…….’
As expected, I think it was a good thing to go to the [Tomb of the Young Wizard].
The benefits gained from going to the [Tomb of the Young Wizard] Are not just one or two.
It would be nice if luck continued like this in the future….
‘Thank you, the generous little wizard… !’
I will not forget you.
