Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius - Chapter 14
Episode 14
Everyone couldn’t take their eyes off the sparring hall with their mouths wide open.
Is what I just saw real?
Some of them even raised their hands and rubbed their eyes.
The scene unfolding before my eyes was unbelievable.
Raymond Millennium beat Kaham Ruhaman.
Raymond wins.
Something happened that no one expected or expected.
Is that it?
It was impossible for Raymond to win.
Who is Kaham Ruhaman?
There is even talk going around that he has been considered a prodigy since the young age of 5 and that he can beat most knights when it comes to swordsmanship alone.
Although it is now overshadowed by a swordsman genius named Selina.
Nevertheless, Kaham Ruhaman’s swordsmanship was amazing.
Even Count Warrug nodded at his swordsmanship.
The only time he nodded was when he was performing his favorite swordsmanship.
What this means is that only Kaham Ruha is good at handling a sword to the extent that Count Warrug acknowledges it.
There was no way I could lose to an incompetent person who was only in the first circle.
No matter how variable a wizard is, he cannot beat a swordsman in close combat.
Well, let’s say we might lose.
Because there is such a thing as chance.
Coincidences overlap and overlap and overlap again.
I could have miraculously won.
But if that were the case, I wouldn’t have been so surprised.
Raymond Millennium was overwhelming.
Kaham Ruhaman could not even make a proper counterattack once.
Yes, let’s say this is also the case.
Magic has many variables, and if Kaham Ruhaman lost because of that.
If that was the case, I could understand it to a very small degree.
but.
Kaham Ruhaman was defeated by Raymond’s swordsmanship.
That was the problem.
That Raymond Millennium fought him with a sword, not magic, and that he defeated Kaham Ruhaman with that sword.
Plus, he won overwhelmingly.
‘Is this possible?’
‘Is Kaham Ruhaman weak… That’s not true. Kaham Ruhaman is strong. That means…’
The gaze shifted from the collapsed Kaham to Raymond.
The person who created the impossible.
A monster that defeated Kaham Ruhaman, a swordsman prodigy, with pure swordsmanship.
‘Raymond learned swordsmanship?’
‘No, he only learned magic, and that would be Circle 1 at most…’
‘Then did he use magic?’
‘There is no trace of magic being used. He only used swordsmanship.’
His swordsmanship in defeating Kaham without using magic cannot be expressed in words.
People were drooling when they saw Raymond Millennium.
His swordsmanship was not beautiful.
It wasn’t even cool.
Practical swordsmanship that feels clunky.
Target only the opponent’s weaknesses rather than fancy tricks.
That’s why it’s even more shocking.
Precisely targeting the opponent’s weaknesses and disrupting their balance.
Isn’t it like an adult playing with a child?
In everyone’s concentration.
“For all my confidence… I’m disappointed.”
I softly pursed my lips.
The voice was so quiet that only Kaham, who was right in front of him, could hear it.
Still, I thought he would fight back like the youngest knight.
But that was simply my mistake.
I can’t believe I can’t even counterattack properly.
Were you that confident in your abilities?
“Uh….”
I glared at Kaham.
He was in great shock and looked up at me blankly.
Her face, which looked like a gisaeng brother, was swollen from my wooden sword.
I feel a little relieved.
I was already annoyed by his continued provocations.
“Tsk.”
He lowered his wooden sword and briefly clicked his tongue.
I felt it while sparring with the youngest knight, but this body is too weak.
My palm burst after hitting the wooden sword a few times.
It’s a bit bitter.
‘Hmm…’
I glanced around and made eye contact with Selina.
When her eyes met mine, her eyes sparkled violently.
If I were to exaggerate a bit, I could say that I could see starlight in her eyes.
Honestly, the look in her eyes.
‘It’s burdensome.’
The look in her eyes was so burdensome that I turned my head without realizing it.
***
When Raymond accepted Kaham’s sparring, Selina unknowingly looked forward to it.
Because I thought I could see again the swordsmanship that Raymond showed on the day he came to deliver the invitation.
The swordsmanship I saw at that time came as quite a shock.
‘I couldn’t see any way to win.’
Since that day, I have done image training dozens and hundreds of times.
And as a result, he lost.
No matter where you attack or defend.
The attack neither worked nor could be stopped.
My pride was hurt.
Still, she was called a swordsman genius.
An opponent she couldn’t defeat.
I never thought I would feel this way from someone my age.
‘Kaham loses.’
Raymond and Kaham’s sparring.
Selina expected how their sparring would end.
Raymond wins.
This was the result Selina expected.
I couldn’t imagine that I would ever lose with the swordsmanship I saw back then.
Huh.
When Raymond’s wooden sword touched Kaham’s neck, Selina realized that she had been holding her breath.
I focused from the moment the sparring started until it ended.
As expected, Raymond won.
‘What kind of swordsmanship is that?’
After the sparring, I couldn’t say anything.
The momentum he showed before sparring was nothing compared to what he felt now.
Defeating Kaham overwhelmingly?
That was natural.
More than that, I was greatly shocked by the sword technique Raymond used.
The swordsmanship Raymond used contained all the essence she had been exploring.
Just looking at it, it was clear that it was something great.
But there was a problem.
‘The only focus was on killing.’
Every move he made was filled with horrifying murderous intent.
Others may simply be into the sight of Kaham overpowering him.
She could clearly see it.
‘I’ve never seen that kind of murderous intent even in my father.’
Even Count Warrug, who had participated in several wars, did not have such murderous intent.
It felt like a sword that existed only to kill.
‘How is it possible to use a sword like that?’
Awe. And fear.
Raymond’s swordsmanship made me feel both of those things at once.
A new sword technique she had never encountered before stimulated her curiosity.
‘Would I be able to handle that swordsmanship?’
impossible.
If it were in front of me, I probably wouldn’t have been able to do anything because of the pressure that it might kill me.
That’s how subversive Raymond’s swordsmanship was.
‘Would my father be able to accept it?’
She lined up all the people she knew in front of him.
does not exist.
At least among the people she knew, there was no one who could beat him with pure swordsmanship.
How can this happen?
‘He said it hasn’t been long since he picked up a sword.’
But what is that?
It was the same when he came to deliver the invitation, but his swordsmanship was nowhere near that of someone who had picked up a sword for the first time.
It is a swordsmanship that is thought to have been swung and killed several times, perhaps hundreds or thousands of times.
‘I don’t know.’
Who on earth did he learn swordsmanship from?
Although it is correct to think that he learned swordsmanship, strangely, it did not occur to me that he learned it from someone.
‘I’ve never even heard of such a sword technique.’
She met quite a few prosecutors.
While meeting them, I was exposed to various sword techniques.
But I’ve never seen swordsmanship like that before.
No, I didn’t even think it would exist.
Swordsmanship solely for killing.
‘Did he make it himself?’
But that didn’t make sense either.
No matter how genius you are, you can’t create things you don’t know.
What this means is that a lot of sacrifice is needed to create that swordsmanship that exudes a strong sense of death.
‘What on earth is this person doing?’
I was curious about him and his swordsmanship.
Who on earth uses swordsmanship like that?
My heart was pounding like it was when I first encountered swordsmanship.
***
I couldn’t bear to look at her.
It felt like lasers were coming out of the eyes looking at me.
I wondered if I had done something strange.
I did it as usual.
‘It was no different from dealing with the youngest knight.’
Rather, I dealt with him with less strength than before.
Since Kaham was weaker than I thought, there was no need to put in any effort.
Then what is it?
‘Hmm…’
If there is one, there is only one.
I wonder if he likes my swordsmanship.
When talking about Selina in the original, her beautiful appearance is also her appearance.
She explained that she was a swordsman.
Since he was a genius, he had a great obsession with swordsmanship.
So, I was able to become stronger by adding effort to my talent.
‘Not bad.’
Just being able to get her attention was a plus.
As long as it’s not negative, getting her attention is a good result.
“Aren’t you going to announce the winner?”
I turned my head and spoke to the driver who was looking blankly at me.
He looked at me like he was looking at a monster.
Announce the results.
I nodded slightly and the knight came up to the sparring hall with a confused look on his face.
“The winner is Raymond Youngsik!”
Despite what the knight said, the nobles failed to react in any way.
I still can’t get over the shock.
match.
Then someone clapped. I glanced over and saw Selina clapping.
Clap clap clap.
Others, who came to their senses from the sound of her applause, also clapped along with her.
Oh, I’m embarrassed.
It felt strange to be the center of attention in front of so many people.
He returned the wooden sword to the knight and bowed his upper body to them.
This must have changed my perception of myself.
The perception that you are an incompetent idiot is not that easy to change.
What I see now will be engraved in their minds.
The incompetent idiot is no longer incompetent.
‘This is enough fan service.’
The reason for being in sparring has disappeared.
I’ve shown everything I wanted to show here in the first place.
“Raymond.”
“Oh, have you seen it?”
Count Millennium caught me as I was about to go down.
His face was complicated with many thoughts.
‘Are you trying to investigate this matter?’
Even so, things were a little noisy.
I wish I had been humiliated in a place where so many nobles gathered.
That would have been a disgrace to the Millennium family.
Still, it worked out well.
‘It actually turned out better.’
Because of this, there will be fewer people who ignore me, and more attention will be paid to the Millennium Count family.
Whether that is in a good or bad sense.
‘It’s none of my business.’
That is a matter for Count Millennium to take care of.
There was no need for me to worry.
“You…”
Still, it seems that Count Millennium’s thoughts were a little different.
He looked back and forth between my hands and my face, where the flesh was bursting and bleeding.
Those eyes shake slightly.
‘Are you concerned about the swordsmanship I used?’
That would be worth it.
My son, who had never had any proper training, suddenly started using a sword.
What parent wouldn’t be surprised?
‘We can solve that later… But why does that man do that in such a burdensome way?’
He shifted his gaze to Count Warrug next to Count Millennium.
Her eyes were looking hotter than Selina’s.
“Why are you doing that?”
In response to my question, he grabbed both of my shoulders and said.
“What do you think of Selina?”
Yes? What?
[‘Nameless God’ frowns at his words.]
Why is this happening again?
