I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 118
＃When I returned, the family was ruined (119)
A ranking battle in the special class.
The story of the ranking war spread among the students at the Kingdom Academy in just one day.
Late index of 7th Street.
For them, it was an object of admiration and envy. The ranking match was a competition in which the rankings of such people were decided.
Naturally, I had no choice but to pay attention.
And the result of that ranking war.
It gave a great shock to the students.
“Miss Ysera is number one?”
“wait for a sec. Why is the Kingdom’s First Sword ranked last?”
“I heard you couldn’t even fight properly?”
The skills Mileton showed in this ranking match were poor.
Because he couldn’t even control his own mana properly, he was literally destroyed by the remaining four people.
Considering that other late-stage indices were literally flying high, it would not be strange to call Mileton’s performance an all-time performance.
“Still… it seems like the rankings of the rest of the people are roughly in line.”
“I know. But… is there any meaning in ranking?”
“I heard there is one? “I heard that those in the lower ranks have classes two hours earlier than the rest.”
“Oh, there it is.”
Two people, along with the Duke, were already seated in the academy’s training hall.
It was Mileton and Dorothy.
* * *
Ethan looked at the two people.
Mileton was a case where his energy and blood got tangled up and he couldn’t show his skills, whereas Dorothy was.
‘Actually, this guy is in last place.’
Among the four late-stage exponents, he was the one who showed the most immaturity.
“You were in the bottom tier. Therefore, of course we will have to train more intensely than other students.”
“yes!”
“…yes.”
“First of all, last place. “You come out first.”
Last place!
It was extremely humiliating to hear those words from someone else, not the Duke. Mileton, blushing, stepped forward.
“Let’s swing the sword.”
“…how?”
“Try using the vision sword technique.”
Mileton’s eyes narrowed.
‘Now that I think about it…’
The Duke in front of me had a history of demonstrating the technique using a more perfect form than that as soon as he saw the techniques of other late exponents.
“Are you really trying to steal my family’s swordsmanship?”
“Steal? Ardan is at best a swordsman like Raycian?”
“Don’t insult the family!”
“Then say it differently. “The best I can do is use the swordsmanship that people like you use?”
Mileton, who was silent, looked at the duke. I was moved to tears for a moment.
I feel like I want to try again right now, but the time wasn’t right.
Wasn’t the energy and blood in a tangled state?
‘It’s never because I’m afraid.’
Duke of Ethan.
He was as talented as he was. Is it reasonable to feel fear from someone who can be considered a lifelong rival? My father didn’t teach me that much.
‘Whew. Let’s calm down.’
Soon after, Mileton smiled leisurely. If you think about it, the family’s secret swordsmanship was a technique full of complex tricks.
No matter how much of a peacock he was, it was completely impossible for him to steal the arcane swordsmanship on sight.
‘At best, it’s just a matter of correcting your posture.’
Didn’t Changseong, Mago Confucius, and Dorothy do the same?
The same would be true for yourself.
“…great.”
Soon after, Mileton generated a glimmer of mana into his sword.
The reverse heavenly sword method (逆天劍法).
The trick was simple.
Splitting mana into two branches and rotating them in opposite directions.
It was a sword technique that utilized the interaction that occurred at the point where the divided mana met each other to improve the sword’s speed and even its destructive power.
Ethan stared at it blankly.
Mileton.
The sword technique he used had a thuggish feel, like the sword technique mainly used by the Dragon of Destruction.
‘Rotate mana in the opposite direction.’
If you have general talent.
It would take quite a long time to get used to it.
But Ethan was different.
Just once.
After rotating the mana in the same way as the mile turn.
‘It was like this.’
Because I completely understand the trick.
It certainly had a lot of implications, as it was a method used by the son of a family known as the head of the seven families of the kingdom.
‘I could use it that way too…’
Last time.
When I took over Yongrinmok, I had a fight with the bishop, and there I checked the flow of mana that makes up the dragon’s ‘body’.
It would not be strange to call it dragon-humanization. Since then, Ethan has been improving the methods used by the bishop whenever he has time.
‘Rotation and collision. And even explosions and fusions.’
It seemed that mixing the four techniques properly would be of great help in constructing a new body using mana.
Mileton narrowed his eyes at Ethan nodding.
‘Could it be… no?’
What kind of technology is the reverse heavenly sword technique?
The core technique alone was the highest level of swordsmanship divided into several branches.
Vision technology was not called vision for nothing.
If I could imitate it as soon as I saw it, I would have used dog or sonar vision technology. No matter how much of a duke he was, it was impossible to understand the reverse heavenly sword.
It must be so…
“I understand.”
“…You understand?”
no way!
“The basics are a mess.”
Phew….
Mileton’s face, which had been very tense, suddenly relaxed.
‘also.’
He must have said it like that because that was the only thing he could catch.
The situation was as he expected…
“And it seems like he wasn’t using the sword techniques properly.”
“…yes?”
“The smoothness of rotation is weak, the balance of collision is lacking, the explosive power is not destructive, and the fusion is clumsy. “It’s a total mess.”
Mileton widened his eyes.
Rotation collision explosion fusion.
These four were the most core techniques that made up the Yeokcheongeombeop.
You knew this as soon as you saw it?
“What is that…”
That was then.
The Duke said as he looked at various parts of Mileton’s body.
“Relax the power in these four places when rotating mana. On the contrary, try to rotate the mana powerfully in these five places.”
“….”
After making eye contact for a while, Mileton swallowed his saliva and spun his mana.
‘…Nonsense!’
He was astonished.
At most, the power was adjusted in a few places. Despite this, the rotation of mana was one step smoother than before.
‘You suggested a solution just by looking at it once?’
It was impossible to imagine where the duke had reached.
So much so that one wonders whether he received any information about the Reverse Heavenly Judgment in advance.
Seeing Mileton’s shocked face, Dorothy smiled and asked.
“professor. He seems very surprised? but. “Professors don’t usually teach well.”
Mileton looked blankly at the duke. Now he didn’t have the presence of mind to reply to Dorothy’s words.
‘…He was this expert?’
There wasn’t much age difference.
At most, he is two years old.
But
isn’t this… so unreasonable?
But if you think about it the other way around.
‘…This is how he can be called my rival.’
I also thought that it would have to be at this level to be ranked alongside the best sword in the kingdom.
“Be practicing.”
“Hey. “Now it’s my turn, right?”
“okay.”
Ethan walked towards Dorothy, leaving behind Mileton, who was staring blankly.
* * *
A week has passed since the ranking match took place on the first day.
Over the past week, each member of the special class received customized lessons from the Duke. The sentiment was simple.
“Ha… is that person really our age?”
“That’s right. Haha….”
Leon Zeros.
The two felt both surprise and absurdity as each class continued.
The problem was that the Duke taught too well. Teaching in the most efficient way according to the other person’s level.
They knew very well how difficult this was.
In order to perfectly explain the knowledge in my head, I had to have deep understanding and basic skills.
“Come and experience a wider world.”
Obviously, that was why I entered the special class. Although I understood that.
‘…No, but this is too wide.’
At the very least, shouldn’t that sight be visible to your eyes?
However, no one was able to confirm the duke’s true skills.
As the training progressed, I only confirmed that his skills were deep and wide.
“…Still, there is hope, Prince Leon. “Aren’t our skills improving day by day?”
“That’s right.”
Zeros said with his eyes shining.
“The duke must be letting down his guard now. That’s probably why they are passing on their tricks to us without hesitation. “If it goes on like this for another month….”
I didn’t know if I could achieve victory beyond simply increasing my chances of winning.
‘After learning to die for a month, we compete.’
The two people’s eyes lit up.
It’s not enough to accept a peer as a professor, and if they don’t challenge even once during the entire class period, the kingdom’s magnates will begin to treat them as much lower than the duke.
The most prestigious family in the kingdom.
As a student there, I had no intention of just watching it with my eyes open.
“Still, I’m glad that one class was meaningful.”
“yes. If nothing else, I think we must admit that the duke has the qualities of a teacher. “Even I, a wizard, am learning a lot.”
Leon nodded.
A class that sticks to the core.
Learning such a class was more enjoyable than I expected.
As each day passes, I look forward to what I will learn today.
The two people started walking towards the special class.
* * *
The five heads of the seven families.
They were receiving news about their children every day. As each day passed, what they felt was surprise.
This is because the duke’s education was of a very high standard.
How could they possibly think that even if they conducted the education themselves, they would not be able to continue the class that efficiently?
However, it was not without problems.
The five heads of the family showed their faces through the crystal ball, and discussions on the issue began.
―…The Duke’s classes are definitely very efficient. However… I have a feeling that if I’m not careful, the children will become afraid of Ardan.
last week.
After the milestone flew, the children were unable to easily exercise their right to challenge, as if they were scared.
―Fortunately, the age range between us is similar, so it seems like we still have a strong desire to win and improve, but… it’s not true that I’m worried. If you ever get the feeling that you won’t be able to surpass Ardan through this special class…
It was definitely beneficial to solidify your basic skills while taking quality classes from the duke, but it would be difficult if you became afraid of the name Ardan in the process.
Right then.
The Turian Marquis, who had been quietly listening to the story, began to cry.
“Then, how about giving us a closer goal to reach before challenging the duke?”
―A slightly closer goal?
“There is one person who could be of use. He is Ardan’s youngest child. “I know that his level is slightly lower or similar to that of the later exponents.”
―Hmm…
“If we organize one more person into the special team and put Ardan’s youngest member in…”
―Not only could it be an intermediate goal, but we wouldn’t be afraid of Ardan itself. Good idea, Turian Marquis.
“haha. No, then I will send the letter directly.”
-I guess so.
Just like that, a letter was sent to the Ardan duchy.
