Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius - Chapter 80

Episode 80

The protagonist’s sword soared high.

His face, which he raised his sword very slowly, looked very complex.

The protagonist’s sword, raised high, was filled with aura.

So much so that the sword containing the aura trembles as if it will break at any moment.

However, as the sword came down, the aura it contained disappeared.

And the sword, whose aura had completely disappeared, lost its purpose and fell into the ground.

“Whoa…”

I felt strange seeing him taking deep breaths as if he was trying to calm his heart.

It was different from the main character I knew.

The main character I know is someone who swings a sword first rather than solving problems through dialogue.

But does he stop swinging the sword in the middle?

It was as funny a story as a passing goblin lying down next to an ogre.

“I was short-thinking. “I apologize.”

It wasn’t an apology at all, but I was shocked enough by that.

What am I looking at now?

The main character, who starts out with fists instead of words, is now apologizing.

‘Why? ‘Why are you appearing in such a low posture?’

For a moment, I thought that maybe he wasn’t the main character.

To that extent, his behavior was so unexpected.

“I apologize like this. So, can’t you accept me?”

ah. Was it something like that?

I realized what the main character’s intention was from the way he spoke, as if he was reading a Korean language book.

“Why do you want to go to such lengths to accompany me?”

“….”

The main character cannot answer anything.

As a result, I became more confident in my thoughts.

‘I covet talent, but I’m not confident.’

There is only one reason why the protagonist acts passively.

When talent cannot be taken away.

When the protagonist realizes that he or she is weaker than the opponent, he bends himself.

In this way, he catches the opponent off guard and kills him at the critical moment.

Since it is a method that the main character often uses in novels, you cannot forget it unless you try to forget it.

“Honestly, it’s hard to understand.”

I took a quick look around.

The devastation he created with just one swing of his sword showed how strong his power was.

“I don’t know why you want to join us.”

“….”

The main character’s eyes are fierce as he looks at me.

He seems to think that the reason the group rejects him is because of me.

If I hadn’t rejected him from the beginning, he wouldn’t have had to make excuses like this.

Even if you think about it that way, I don’t think there’s anything to say.

Because it’s true.

“There’s a saying in the North that you should be more careful of people than monsters.”

When a person I met for the first time approached me warmly and asked me to accompany him, I naturally had to be suspicious.

I don’t know what his intentions are, but accepting his company without hesitation was no different from telling me to catch him.

“Shouldn’t we at least know the reason?”

If they were ordinary people similar to the people he had met before, they would not have said this.

I wish I had dealt with it so that I wouldn’t ignore it, pass it by, or act in vain, but I’m not trying to resolve it through conversation like I am now.

Since he is a different type of person from ordinary people, he wants to resolve the issue as peacefully as possible.

‘You may not lose, but that doesn’t mean you can win.’

If you were confident that you could defeat the protagonist with your current strength.

I would have killed him even if it cost me.

Because my ultimate goal was to survive him.

But I can’t.

Even though he did not acquire the talent for swordsmanship, he consistently walked the path of a monster.

No talent for swordsmanship?

Then you can make up for it with other talents.

No matter how small a talent may be, it cannot be ignored if it gathers together into a great mountain.

‘In this trip to the north, the protagonist gathered many talents.’

If you infer the words of the people who came in for a drink, you could easily guess that fact.

Since there were monsters, humans had to be hunted, so the protagonist wiped out all the monsters.

And the talent he accumulated is still melting into his body and giving him great strength.

Are you sure of victory against such a monster?

This was impossible unless we had a sword master on our side.

“If you say that because you feel lonely going around alone.”

“Then I will refuse. “I can’t help but feel that the reason they want to accompany us is impure.”

It is the complete opposite of having the protagonist accompany you.

On the other hand, I also wanted the main character to accompany me.

It would be uncomfortable in many ways if the main character were together.

It was clear that I had to be on guard at all times and pay attention to the main character’s every action.

‘The problem is that it’s the same even if you’re not accompanied.’

I saw incredible talent.

Perhaps among the talents he had seen so far, there were as many as two of the most brilliant talents in one place.

How can a glutton with a large appetite ignore a feast?

You can never ignore it.

I could definitely guarantee this.

Even if you part ways here, the protagonist will follow you to the end and wait for you to let down your guard.

Knowing that, of course I cannot neglect my guard.

This can’t be anything other than a shitty situation.

“Honestly, it feels weird to even be talking about this with you here. “I have no intention of adding more people here.”

First of all, I thought about excluding him as much as possible.

“It’s also the case that he openly exudes murder because his words don’t work the way he wants. “You have shown yourself to be bad in many ways, so why should we trust you and accept you?”

“Because that way you can live.”

The protagonist responded, losing his momentum as if he had quit acting.

The force was so strong that even Mahol flinched.

It wasn’t as sharp as Count Warrug, nor was it as heavy as Count Millennium.

The main character’s momentum was dull.

It felt sticky, as if I had stepped into a swamp.

“I don’t forget those who ignore me.”

He smiled fiercely, as if he would cut me down if I refused.

Yes, that’s the main character.

It’s more pleasing to me to act like that.

“under. “Did you think we would be scared by such a threat?”

“What should I do? All you have to do is tell me to kill you.”

But the group was different from what I thought.

Perhaps he was offended by the protagonist’s attitude, but he complained without paying attention to the energy he was giving off.

Mahol was openly raising his dagger and looking at me as if asking me to give him an order right away.

When I saw that, I felt reassured but also sorry.

Unfortunately, they will act contrary to their wishes.

“great.”

“…?”

“I like it. “Let’s go together.”

“what…?”

“Red Mill!”

“Lord Redmill! What is that all of a sudden…!”

My words were so unexpected that even the protagonist who had been threatening me was taken aback.

He looked back at the group who were vehemently opposing him and slightly bowed his head to express his apologies.

I can’t explain something to them right away.

They said, ‘Ah, this is the person who will destroy the continent in the future. Isn’t it possible to say, ‘I feel like I can deal with anything if I have someone by my side.’

No matter how much I explain later, it was difficult to give an explanation right now.

There’s a main character in front of you, so you can’t swear in front of him.

“…well thought out. “It’s the right choice.”

The protagonist nodded with a satisfied face and put the sword he was holding into its scabbard.

Then he came closer to me and stretched out his hand as if to ask for my favor.

“….”

I don’t want to hold on to it.

As I was looking at that hand, a hand suddenly popped out from next to me and grabbed it.

It seems like lasers are coming out of the eyes

.

Mahol furrowed his brows but tried to smile.

Since I had made a decision, it seemed like I would follow that decision.

“hmm. “Please take care of me in the future.”

The protagonist was not very offended and offered to shake hands with Beatrice.

Those who are shaking hands with him now can see that he has applied saliva.

Remember that your talent is mine.

“You too…”

But why are you shaking hands with Raina?

Raina’s face as she held the protagonist’s hand was one of disgust itself.

He clung to me, shaking his hand as if he had touched a bug.

The main character shook hands with Ellis and then stood in front of me and said.

“My name is Ahar.”

***

Ahar joined and the group looked at me with dissatisfaction.

Their faces seemed like they couldn’t understand why they accepted him when he was so rude.

Without knowing the exact circumstances, I was able to fully understand their reactions.

“I won’t be involved in all the by-products from now on, so you can share them yourself.”

Ahar first informed us that he would hand over all profits from hunting to us.

One of the reasons he said that was because if he kills it, it’s his anyway, so it doesn’t matter. It looked exactly like that.

However, there was no reason to find fault with it, so we accepted his suggestion.

At least that’s what my companions thought.

Unlike my companions who thought they didn’t even want to receive something from Ahar, I tried to make sure to take it from him.

“I don’t think that will be enough. “We have made a great sacrifice in accepting you, and you should be rewarded accordingly.”

“You said you would give up by-products as compensation.”

“That is not enough. You threatened to kill us. “Shouldn’t you get paid for it?”

“…What do you want?”

He seemed to have given up on arguing with me and told me to tell him what I wanted.

“Give us half of your by-products.”

“….”

Ahar closed his mouth and remained silent.

I looked at him with his arms crossed.

It was clear that he had collected quite a lot of by-products while hunting countless monsters.

Among them, there are definitely some that rank high among magical ingredients.

I wanted to receive it as compensation for psychological damage.

No matter how much he thought he didn’t need materials, the materials he had collected were extremely valuable resources regardless.

If you take it back and ask for it at the blacksmith shop, you could get a good weapon.

That’s why I’m worried.

After a moment, he nodded and handed me one of the four pouches.

“Is this okay?”

“hmm… “Would you like that too?”

“…Don’t you think it’s gone too far?”

When I pointed to the pouch next to the sword, he glared at me and growled.

I have grown too big to be scared by that.

“If you don’t want to, you can go alone.”

I shrugged my shoulders and he gritted his teeth.

After hesitating for a while, he let out a deep sigh and opened the bag for me.

And there was no warning left.

“I will never forget this.”

“yes. Thank you. I will use it well.”

“You bitch…”

I brushed his curses away from my ears, took the bag and tied it around my waist.

It’s about the size of a fist and is very light, so it seems like it has a lightweight magic.

A product of this magnitude must have cost a lot of money.

Well, it has nothing to do with me.

When it started moving again, I sneaked up to Mahol and whispered.

“Mahol.”

“yes?”

“From now on, you must suffocate every enemy you encounter. Can you do it?”

Mahol looks back at me for a moment.

Then he nodded with a face full of determination.

“I will do it.”

There’s no need to take it too seriously.

I felt a little burdened because I felt like I was attaching too much meaning to my words.
