Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius - Chapter 10
Episode 10:
The leader of the Millennium Knights.
Gordon Coryman didn’t like Raymond.
As someone from a famous magic family, I could understand how he made comments that were dismissive of the article.
Aren’t wizards and knights always enemies?
However, it was difficult to understand tarnishing the family name.
‘Because my reputation is diminished.’
Gordon Coryman was becoming a joke among the knight commanders.
It was still unfortunate that I couldn’t lead the knights of the swordsman, but it was okay.
Because he was proud and satisfied with being the leader of the Millennium Knights.
If only it weren’t for Raymond, who had been causing trouble and becoming an asshole a few years ago.
Although the momentum of the Millennium family was not waning, it was certain that Gordon Coryman’s reputation was at least tarnished.
Because the image of the knight commander of a famous magic family as the knight commander for incompetent idiots began to emerge.
The moment when he clearly turned his mind away from Raymond was when Raymond kicked the servants.
If Raymond becomes the head of the family in the future, she will have to follow him.
I couldn’t bear to open my eyes to the way he treated his subordinates carelessly and made excuses for anyone who seemed even slightly stronger than him.
Still, while I was trying hard to let go of my anger, I came here in person.
There was no way the words could come out nicely.
“I guess you were frustrated that your magic training wasn’t going well because you came to see us, who only know how to swing a sword ignorantly.”
He said that and naturally thought that Raymond would either be intimidated and not be able to answer properly, or would answer randomly and withdraw.
But things turned out completely differently.
“It seems ignorant, that’s for sure.”
He so clearly countered Gordon Coryman’s words and even went as far as to provoke him afterwards.
“You show swordsmanship that even a child could do, and are needed by the family?”
After hearing those words, Gordon Coryman couldn’t bear it any longer.
Because I thought that the incompetent fool who couldn’t do anything on his own and was rude to his subordinates was now even ignoring swordsmanship.
“If it’s a swordsmanship that even a child can do, you can probably do it too. “Well… sparring or something.”
Of course, he won’t come forward himself.
Because it loses its shape.
Still, no matter what knight comes forward, wouldn’t he be able to crush the incompetent young master right in front of him?
Of course, it will have to be adjusted appropriately, but at least it will be able to inform the reality.
‘I’ll clearly show you that you shouldn’t look at the article lightly.’
Gordon Coryman stared at Raymond, thinking to himself.

“Couple…”
Coupon. Let’s spar with me.
Isn’t it funny?
Originally, the fact that he was asking me to spar with him made no sense.
Raymond was basically a member of the Millennium Count family, known as the magic family.
Has anyone from the Millennium Count family ever sparred with a knight with a sword?
To put it bluntly, there was none.
To begin with, the people of the Millennium Count family had never held a sword before.
The only swords they use are short daggers that they carry around for emergencies.
Are you asking Raymond to spar with you?
Of course, the intention was to bring shame by destroying it horribly.
Even though I knew the whole intention, I couldn’t help but laugh.
The first thing I enjoyed was being able to hold the sword once again.
Since you know roughly what level your opponent is, if you do well, you might be able to win, right? It was fun because I thought about it.
“Of course, if you’re afraid, you don’t have to do it. “I’m not forcing it at all.”
The middle-aged man in front of me said that.
It is a soft voice, not the sharp voice that appeared just a moment ago.
Trying to lead people in the direction of sparring as much as possible.
“Master, for no reason…”
Ellis, who was worse than the last, tried to step forward, but raised his hand to stop her.
“I like it. “What are the rules?”
At those words, Gordon Coryman opened his mouth, trying hard to hide his laughter.
“Hmm… I guess you’ve never learned swordsmanship before, so I think you could spar with our youngest.”
As he said that, he made a subtle gesture and called a knight.
The driver who was sitting on the floor watching the situation got up and came over.
Gordon Coryman, who confirmed that the youngest driver was coming, continued speaking.
“Since this is a sparring match, mana cannot be used, of course. And… well, I will assume that you win if you hit our youngest son even once. On the other hand, the youngest wins when the master calls for surrender.”
Gordon Coriman looked at me as if he thought this was pretty good.
These were conditions that he could never have won if he were the original incompetent idiot.
Even though he was the youngest, he was a knight and it was not easy to hit him even once.
‘But…’
Raymond is not just an incompetent idiot.
He is a swordsman genius.
If it’s just one hit, there’s a good chance.
“Bring the wooden sword.”
“yep.”
Two wooden swords were prepared.
It was a wooden sword with an iron core that gave it a similar feel to a real sword.
I grabbed the wooden sword.
Even though it wasn’t a real sword, my heart was beating strongly.
The desire to swing quickly spread from my heart to my entire body.
Muscles that have not yet been trained are writhing and tense.
“Now then, let’s start sparring.”
Gordon Coryman glanced at the knights sitting in a circle and spoke.
I want to swing my sword right now. But not yet.
“I don’t think we’ve said anything important yet.”
“which…?”
“compensation.”
“Ah… If you win, I will recognize that swordsmanship is something even a child can do and I will resign from my position as knight commander.”
Gordon Coryman came out strong.
Hearing that, he shrugged his shoulders.
It means to continue.
“But, if you are defeated… you will have to acknowledge that our knights’ swordsmanship is not something even a child can do and make a formal apology.”
He said he acknowledged and apologized, but in fact, what Gordon Coryman wants right now is for Raymond to get beaten up by the knight.
I looked around.
The knights were looking as if they had discovered something interesting to see.
For them too, Raymond wasn’t a very good master.
“Then let’s begin.”
I smiled slightly and looked at Gordon Coryman.
Gordon Coriman announced the start of the sparring.
“start.”
***
I grabbed the wooden sword.
It has a pleasant grip with a reasonable weight.
A light smile appeared on his lips.
I just saw the knights’ swordsmanship skills clearly.
A condition where you only need to hit once without using mana.
He slowly raised his sword and took a stance.
It looks pretty good.
“Please come first.”
The youngest driver said as if he would give in.
Still, I had been obsessed with the idea of continuing to swing the sword since a while ago, so I didn’t hesitate to do so.
There is no reason to refuse to come in because you are so confident.
He took a deep breath and began to ‘act’, kicking the ground and shooting forward.
Sigh!
The wooden sword and the wooden sword clashed in the air and made a sound.
“Hook?”
The youngest knight let out an embarrassed exclamation.
It was a much faster and sharper sword than he expected.
A sword that knows the loophole well and clearly targets it.
I smiled slightly at that reaction.
If he had not twisted his body at that moment to block, he would have been instantly defeated for being caught off guard.
The youngest knight’s eyes were seen trembling slightly.
It must be confusing.
Because the guy who didn’t seem to have learned anything about swordsmanship swung the sword properly.
His wooden sword strikes towards my chest.
widely!
With a dull sound, the wooden sword held above the head sent the youngest knight’s wooden sword flying.
Since it would be difficult to block the youngest knight’s sword due to the difference in strength, I instinctively decided that it would be better to let it go.
I only struck the sword twice, but pain radiated from my palm.
‘It hasn’t been long since I started, so what is this?’
My body is weaker than I thought. I felt like I had to end this sparring as quickly as possible.
My strength and palms also hurt, so if I drag it for a long time, I will be at a disadvantage.
He focused strongly and thrust his sword forward.
In an instant, my wooden sword was aimed at the youngest knight’s neck, and the knight quickly twisted his body to avoid it.
“Ha!”
The youngest knight attacked me, slashing with his sword.
Instantly, he took a step back, dodged it, swung the wooden sword he had recovered, and struck the youngest knight’s arm.
puck!
The wooden sword and arm collided and made a sound.
If I follow the original rules, I win here.
But neither the youngest driver nor I had any intention of stopping here.
I was no longer in a state where I could stop.
I was drunk on the sword and tried to vent the emotions that were overflowing inside me.
Just like last time, Seonghyuk swung his sword and unleashed his inner emotions.
Woe!
The suppressed emotions circulated throughout my body and caught on the tip of the sword.
Life radiated out.
Everyone around them flinched because no one expected that sharp, deadly force would suddenly extend out.
The youngest knight gritted his teeth and swung his sword.
In order not to lose to my fierceness, he also instinctively showed his fierceness and used his sword to kill his opponent.
I didn’t use my mana because I still had some reason left. If I had been a little more murderous, I would have used my mana and swung my sword without realizing it.
He flicked it away with his sword, then raised his foot and kicked the youngest knight’s leg.
It’s a little different from the swordsmanship of knights who honestly only swing their swords to win.
He thoroughly considers efficiency and uses sword techniques that can be used in actual combat.
Because this is the swordsmanship that the main character of ‘Master of Talent’ possesses.
The reaction of the youngest knight, who had always dealt only with knights, was bound to be slow.
Wow.
The force with which he swung his sword and the shock from my kicking his leg.
Those two things added together made the youngest knight stumble for a moment.
Naturally, I didn’t miss that moment.
Even if you don’t have any talent for swordsmanship, you will know that now is your opportunity.
My wooden sword moved quickly and split the air.
And just before slashing the back of the youngest knight’s neck.
The sword stopped.
No one could react after seeing it.
I couldn’t say anything.
“…”
The silence was there.
In that silence, a message appeared before my eyes.
[‘The nameless god’ is clapping and enjoying himself.]
