76 – Tempered (2).

the next day.

I immediately devoted myself to training. The deadline is until the subjugation team is confirmed. Until then, I had to stretch my skills to the max at all costs.

When the basic skills, namely the basic soil for mana and the body, were prepared, he planned to immediately join the subjugation party and recall his former senses through actual combat.

I summoned the knights from the morning.

The knights followed my instructions without saying anything, and I told them I would be guiding them in place of Sir Lucas for the time being.

“So, sir, are you guiding us from today?”

“yes. This is a matter ordered by His Excellency Johannes. I may seem lacking in your eyes, but… … Still, I intend to do my best. Somewhat arduous training will continue.”

The reaction of the knights to my words was quite friendly. Certainly, living in Rodenov and sharing the joys and sorrows with the knights seemed worthwhile.

They also knew that I and Adyllun were very harmonious anyway, and at this rate, it was clear that I would play the role of the next commander of the Rodenov Knights, so they had no complaints about me guiding and training them.

Moreover, since they know that I have grown explosively, there was no particular reason for them to refuse.

They are well aware that the current situation may become quite serious.

I moved with them and trained very hard. The training was much higher than usual, and the knights’ bodies began to sag little by little as if they were not used to the training.

“Move faster! Are you going to die! Those who are more proficient in monsters than me can only use them by moving so slowly!”

I slammed them hard whenever I saw them hit. In particular, it stimulated their pride as specialists in combat against monsters and encouraged them to move more actively.

After the joint training to develop physical strength, an endless fight against each other unfolds.

They were knights who were already well versed in their swordsmanship, and I preferred fighting over swords, so I couldn’t directly tell them what their swordsmanship lacked.

Certainly, Sir Lucas is much better than me in this respect, but Sir Lucas is currently away.

In the end, all we can do is target each other, sharpen our senses, and develop the ability to cope with any situation.

However, this method was also sufficient to improve the skills of the knights. At least, the knights of Rodenov were the ones who could quickly find out what they were lacking as a result of sparring.

The magic circle that increases the concentration of mana isn’t ready yet, so Adilun said that it can be done tomorrow.

“Then you’re saying it’s possible from tomorrow?”

“Yeah.”

“It’s a lot of trouble. Thank you so much, Adilune.”

“Nope. I’m glad I could be of help.”

His Excellency Johannes and Lady Claudia looked at us with satisfaction as they watched us hone our skills in preparation for any unknown threat.

“I saw him training fiercely with the knights.”

“Oh, did you see it?”

“yes. The training seems to be going pretty well, seeing as the momentum from my sharpening ripples over to where I stand.”

“Fortunately, it was because the knights followed my instructions well. To be honest, I was a little uneasy… … I think it was because of what we have done so far.”

“Because you’ve done a lot for Rodenov over the past few months. This should alleviate your worries about Sir Lucas’ absence for the time being.”

“It’s an overstatement.”

“What? It’s all because of your hard work. It’s good for Adilun to work hard in the magic workshop, but take a break from time to time.”

“I will do my best on my own. I don’t know what will happen if I enter the punitive force, so I’m increasing the number of magic types that can be used.”

“yes. You did well. As soon as Sir Lucas returns, we will organize a subjugation party, so be aware of that.”

“Yeah. dismissal.”

“Yeah. father.”

and the next day. Finally, the magic circle designed by Adilun was laid in the gymnasium.

Gradually, the surrounding mana gathers around the magic circle, and you can feel the cold and cold mana sinking into the gymnasium.

“Is this enough?”

“that’s enough. great job.”

“Then train hard. I will be going to the magic workshop, so please come to the workshop after training.”

“yes.”

“Are there any prizes?”

“There are many eyes to see… … .”

“How are you? Everyone in Rodenov already knows.”

Having said that, Adilon put his arm around my neck and kissed me.

Heat rushed to his face. From behind, we could hear the whistles of the knights watching us. They looked at the two of us with curious eyes, and as soon as Adylun saw that, he stuck out his tongue at me and teleported away to the magic workshop.

“Yeah. When did you become so hot?”

It was Lord Tyr. Even when I first met him, he had a knife-like hostility towards me, but now he has become quite friendly with me.

“It’s been a while.”

“That is very fortunate. It is fortunate that Rodenov has a bright future.”

“It’s a matter to think about once the monster subjugation is over, but… … I also feel new.”

“Well, until last year, I thought it was impossible.”

“Good is good.”

“I hope that the two of you will be in harmony in the future. That way Rodenov will become rich and strong, and that way my salary will go up.”

“A knight’s salary, isn’t it enough?”

“That’s enough, but isn’t more money better?”

“It is not… … . I get it anyway A salary increase, I’ll consider it after this subjugation is over.”

“Oh, really?”

“It’s the same with other knights, so it’s not just about you. If you want something a little less, tell me. I’ll take it away from you.”

“Are you sure you’re the second son of wealthy Ortaire?”

“Because I have nothing to write about.”

“Well, you don’t need to top it off with sabi. Please use that money to buy me a gift for the princess. You will probably be delighted.”

“I have already thought of a present for Adiluun.”

“That’s enough.”

“Okay, let’s stop chatting here… … Adilun will also set up a magic circle, so let’s start training in earnest. Everyone gather!”

The knights who came out from behind and whistled while watching Adilyn quickly lined up at my call. As refined knights, there was no place to find fault with their attitude.

“Should we start with what we always do? We’ll start with physical training, then we’ll do melee training. Since the concentration of mana has increased through the magic circle, always be aware of mana and keep in mind that you move with your will.”

“Yeah!”

“great. Then, let’s run from the gymnasium.”

The knights and I all ran through the gymnasium at full speed. To push your stamina to the limit as much as possible. As I continued to circle the gym at full speed, my breathing started to get a little rough. After that, we went through strength training, and immediately pointed knives at each other.

A large-scale melee broke out as they pointed swords at each other, aiming for gaps. Even if they were injured, it was not a problem because there were many skilled priests and wizards in Rodenov, so it was devised.

Originally, the more intense the training, the faster a person becomes stronger.

Lord Tyr’s sword flew towards me fiercely. Judging by the clear glow of the mana that contained the cold chill, it seemed that he wanted to insert his sword into me today.

But it didn’t matter. I immediately grabbed his sword and pulled him into my gap. I don’t know if it was before, but my skills are already better than anyone else here. Lord Tyr tried his best, but in the end he was hit in the stomach by my iron fist and flew far away.

As soon as Lord Tyr flew away, the next two knights’ combined attacks aimed at my flanks, and I quickly regained my stance before them and wrapped mana in my gauntlets to defend against the sword attacks coming in different directions.

Caang!

I heard the sound of swords and gauntlets clashing, and I didn’t miss the chance.

Stepping on the advance, I punched the knight on the left who was slow to recover. Perhaps it was because he couldn’t maintain his posture due to the recoil of the sword strike, he had no choice but to accept my fist right away, and he had no choice but to fall off to another place like Sir Tyr.

And after shaking off the article, I immediately stepped aside to avoid the incoming sword attack aimed at my back.

Another knight whose attack had just been blocked by me fired another flashing stab, and I grasped the path his sword was heading and grabbed it with my gauntlet.

“… … !”

He felt a bit embarrassed, but he was also a skilled knight. I let go of the sword I was holding and switched to melee combat.

The knight who had asked me to teach him about the kwonjuk technique last time struck me with a rather skilful skill, but I slammed his shoulder with the handle of the sword, just as I was holding the blade.

Kwajik!

A loud noise was heard, and his armor buckled. In the end, the knight collapsed as if he couldn’t stand the intense pain.

However, I could see knights still waging a melee around me, and I could feel that some of them were paying attention to me, who had already defeated three knights.

I put a smile on my lips They know it too. Who is the most threatening in this position, and who will be most helpful in his training.

I gladly accepted their challenge.
