A Sleepy Summoner Wants To Rest

13 – 1. Academy (13)

#13

Perfect!

Because it contained magical energy, a clear sound and shadows exploded on both sides at the same time, and a huge flock of wolves and crows soared into the sky.

Kahah!! aaa!!!

The appearance of screaming and cacophony in all directions created a creepy feeling for the viewer. It was fortunate that the size of the barrier was larger than expected, otherwise the sky was filled with so many crows that this small area would have been full of crows.

Hive guy, he seemed very excited when he gave me magic to increase the number of crows so that he could control the momentum. It must have been quite a pleasure to be able to display the characteristics that were limited to saving mana now.

I can feel that he is usable even without expressing it like that, but since he wasn’t very active because of Growl, he seems to want to show it clearly this time.

Thanks to that directing, 30% of my magical power was cut into pieces. I used 10% of my initial healing and shadows for the purpose of protecting my body, so the remaining magic power is about 60%.

But I don’t regret it. In fact, the wave of magical power that had just been rough was pushed back in an instant. That performance alone was worth it.

“Grrr!”

As if to protect me, Graul came forward, straightened his fur, and exposed his teeth.

“…A beast?! No, I don’t feel the magic stone. If so, is it a servant?”

“Yes, I am a summoner. It’s a job with Daguri as standard, so the one-on-one match you want is unfortunately impossible.”

I pointed the pipe at him with a grin.

“Come with all your might? There is no need to come back now?”

“Ha ha ha… This must be a pain in the bones after a long time.”

Reus Bagna smiled bitterly and straightened his sword with a serious expression. If it was an aggressive form to deal with only me, now it is the opposite, a form of passive defense that is mainly seen when dealing with multiple enemies.

“A knight is a protector. It shows that we are stronger in defense than offense.”

“Damn it!”

I ran out one step later than Growl, who rushed at my cry.

The opponent has solidified their defense, so it’s me who has to step in. Unlike my opponent, who is leisurely maintaining his sword, I am in a situation where I am maintaining this shadow as well. If you fight, your mana will drain faster.

In order to reduce my burden in real time, I reduced the number of crows and issued an order to attack while sticking out my tongue at the wisdom of the hive that was individually controlling it.

Wheeik! Whiik!!

A whistle sign that I haven’t used in a long time. It is a signal that the level of the [Summoning Book] Has increased and is rarely used.

The guys and I can communicate without exchanging commands like this, but the other party doesn’t know that. Showing these constraints one by one can be confusing. It’s a kind of fake.

I was convinced after seeing the first inspection. I’m weaker than him However, I have no intention of dying peacefully.

The fight has already begun. If you can’t win by force, cheat and cheat again. Draw the enemy thoroughly into the mud. If there is no gap, just make it. The more hands you have, the easier it is to poke your opponent’s gaps.

“Kahah!!!”

According to Hive’s command, dozens of crows rushed towards the one who spewed out a brilliant sword river like a moth. Graul’s claws clawed at Reus’ waist, aiming for the moment when the crow’s attack that came down from all sides was eliminated with a single action.

“Suck…!”

Chack! Empty!

The school uniform was torn and fragments scattered, but it made a sound too dull to believe that it had cut human flesh. It wasn’t the school uniform that used mana, but the physical body. But it wasn’t completely ineffective.

[99%]

The percentage of Reus’ barrier cell has been reduced.

Growl’s strength was close to 30, but the weight brought by the basic body’s physicality was combined, so even though it was a simple swing of the hand, the impact reached the inside of the body. There is no point in attacking an area that has already been fortified.

I moved quickly in line with the shadow crow’s attack and aimed for the leg, but Reus, who passed the crow’s attack with his body, lifted his foot to avoid my attack and stepped on the iron pipe of the shadow.

Thump!

I only stepped on it a little, but it felt like a huge boulder had been placed on it. I aimed for my legs to make me lose my balance, but the weight threw me off balance.

Shake!

At the sword’s attack, which continued like flowing water, I moved my magic power to transform the shape of the shadow and pull it out of my feet, twisting the balance. However, seeing Reus swinging his sword innocently without any movement, I quickly aimed for my arm and extended the tip of the shadow.

The shadow stretched like a pole hit Reus’s body.

Wheeing

Thanks to that, the attack that was originally aimed at me cut through the air. Seeing his expression stiffen a little for the first time, I immediately threw a pole of shadow over his body, which immediately became a sticky form and restrained his body.

I immediately pulled out the next shadow and swung it at the same time, and Graul rushed in from behind and bit Reus on the shoulder.

Boom! Hard!!

His expression twisted, and at the same time his shoulders turned red. The attack worked.

As the blood flowed, Graul’s fur turned a little redder. The [Blood Recipe] Effect was exerted. I backed away with it and Raoul set his claws on and sagged.

Damn it!

With the momentum to bite his neck, he repeatedly chewed the cud.

“Kuk, something like this…!”

Boom!!!

However, due to the small amount of magic contained in it, he pushed back the shadow and Graul who had restrained his body by releasing magic with his whole body.

“Kahah!!!”

“Interfering!”

Having cut the crow in half with a single sword, Reus’ sword steel continued to grow and eventually severed Growl’s back.

Chow ah

Blood splattered. Unlike the hair itself turning red due to the effect of [Blood Recipe], I saw that Growl was soaked and dyed red. Without panic, I pulled out the shadow and fixed it to the beaks and claws of the hive and shadow crows in a sharp form like a blade.

“Grrr…!”

Full of willpower to eliminate Graul first, Reus continued to wield a sword wrapped in sword steel with restrained killing power. With the help of the Shadow Crow, I did my best to evade, but my vitality gradually increased.

I blew my whistle when I had all the shadow blades attached to 10 crows and hives.

Wheek!!

Responding to the sound, Reus swung his sword in a wide rotation as if it covered everyone around him, but he never got hit. Confused, he shifted his gaze to the side. But there were no crows charging at him.

I was taken aback by that fact and looked at Graul again, but Graul, who was out of range of the sword, returned to my side and began to heal his wounds, and crows equipped with shadow blades arrived around him.

“… Ha”

He became a dog chasing chickens in an instant. He forced himself to breathe and correct his posture, but he couldn’t hide the slight trembling in his eyes.

“That pet is too dangerous”

The wound continued to open and the blood did not stop.

Understanding the danger of Growl in that fact, he ignored the crow and moved forcefully to catch Growl, the most threatening to him, but we pulled him out faster than he approached.

The scars gradually increased due to the restraint of the crow with the blade that sometimes appeared among other crows. While the poor Reus struggled with the crow, I focused on healing Graul.

As a result, his choice became the result of strangling himself.

There is a limit to using mana to strengthen the body. Unless there is a skill that directly restores or strengthens the body, the combination of Graul’s characteristics and skills is not easy to withstand due to its structure.

As evidence of that, the red stain from his shoulder had already spread to the point of soaking his shirt.

Excessive bleeding.

From my point of view, the fact that he was holding on even after shedding blood like that seemed like a monster.

“…What a waste. I had to hit you from the start”

“Why don’t you surrender now?”

He shook his head at my words and fixed his sword again. Movement was slower than the first. But his fighting spirit did not cool down. Doesn’t it break with something like this?

It’s a dangerous hunt. A hunt that kills me if I can’t kill it.

Just like the Awakened who turn and hunt the monsters in the dungeon, I have been fighting with the premise of hunting Reus Bagna from the beginning. An overwhelming number can put pressure on a target just by being surrounded.

If there was a blade in it that could take one’s own life, then the psychological fear looming would be beyond one’s imagination. Sympathy does not If I hadn’t done this, it would have been on my side to be trampled on.

It would be a lie if I said it wasn’t a pity that I couldn’t see the end due to Graul’s attack. I was at a disadvantage the longer it led to a long-term battle, so I intended to end it with a short-term battle as much as possible.

As a result, I succeeded in bringing my opponent down to equal conditions with me, but despite coming to this point, there was no picture of a 1-1 win against him.

You have to admit what you have to admit. Because it was Growl, even if I got hit by his attack, I ended up with this kind of wound. If I was hit, my limbs would fly off immediately. Even now, his forcibly bent arm tingled from stepping on the pipe.

It is strange that such an aftermath remains with just a simple shock. In other words, it means that his skill is giving some kind of effect.

Sitting on Graul’s back, which had only roughly recovered from a major wound, I pulled out the shadow in the shape of a long sword and positioned myself so that I could wield it at any time. There was nothing special about the appearance of a long sword, but the sharpness of the blade was different.

I felt the first time I swung an iron pipe. You can’t counter that guy’s attack with half-assed weapons.

If you lack strength, you have to make up for it with the weight of the weapon, but those made of shadows have no weight in common.

The only thing that changes is the softness and hardness of shape, sharpness, and strength. So no matter how big you made it, it wasn’t heavy. However, having no weight means that no matter how big you make it, it is impossible to press it with weight.

Thus, I chose a longsword based on its sharpness and area alone. This is similar to using iron pipes.

“Let’s go”

“Ahhhhh!!”

Now, even though he doesn’t have the [Howling] Skill, Graul let out a cry. It is like a habit that has been formed through constant use even before evolution. Thanks to you, I’m going to attack from now on! It was like advertising, but let’s say it was good to distract Reus.

Despite the quick leap and flight, Reus maintained his defense without change.

Chang!

The moment the longsword I wielded crossed Reus’s sword, the sword steel exploded and turned into a huge greatsword.

Kagagakak!!!

It wasn’t just a sound from colliding with magic. As if being ground in a blender, the shadow holding my magical power was crumbled in an instant, and my longsword, which had been pushed back as if it were being bounced, was suddenly broken in the middle.

I didn’t care and remade the longsword as if I was passing by Reus. I prepared to intercept the upcoming attack, but contrary to my thoughts, Reus did not pursue me and did not attack me while aiming for the gap where the weapon was gone.

On the contrary, he strengthened his defense even more, drawing and gathering mana and at the same time using a huge greatsword made of sword steel as a shield.

‘…Crazy’

Swords like that? How many mana do you have to use such crazy methods? No, it’s ‘black steel’ in the first place. Does it make sense to use a technique for cutting as a defense?

There is a saying that the best defense is offense, but that doesn’t mean you should use it in such an ignorant way.

The principle is simple. Raises a sword with magical power. Use it as a shield It’s extremely simple. Except for the fact that the amount of magical power used in the process was so great that even seasoned wizards couldn’t even fathom it.

Is mana the only problem? The mental power consumed to control the magic and fix the form is also required. Perhaps he is feeling the sensation of his brain being eaten in real time?

By literally hitting and driving mana regardless of fire or recklessness, he obtained the strongest shield that he could not even attack properly.

The bigger problem is that it doesn’t end there.

Right now, Reus is conserving his stamina. Knowing that if he moves while dealing with me, he will collapse without being able to do anything, so he ignorantly uses the magic he can.

He’s changing his body for just one moment. In terms of games, it is no different from clearing your mind before using your ultimate.

“…Tsk, annoying”

You must go on the offensive here. If you give him time, it’s obvious that he’ll use something like the sword sword you saw earlier, or something even more annoying than that.

He could see his breathing harder than before and the puddle of blood at his feet. There are limits to what can be tolerated like that. So, in order to break that limit somehow, I will definitely put in a strong water.

Before that, you have to deal with the bastard.

I clicked my tongue at the sudden start of Time Attack.

“Grow!”

The command issued at the same time as calling the name is an attack. You must stop that attack by knocking it down before it succeeds.

Before Graul’s charge, I jumped up from his back and swung my sword at Reus.

Chang! Kagagak!

I was impatient with his defensive ability to block the two attacks without fail. To make full use of that level of skill while using ignorant mana, the power of the skill is clear. The power of the skill, which works in defiance of all laws, is overwhelming enough to be considered unreasonable.

The fact that I pushed him like this was only possible because he was given the irrational privilege brought by skill.

Chang! Chaeng Chaeng!!

It doesn’t matter if it gets blocked. At the same time as stealing Reus’s gaze, he constantly swings his sword to drain his stamina. Reus, who avoided Graul’s attack by turning around and twisting his body slightly, radiated his magic power and pushed Graul away.

Kung

I stamped my feet at the same time. Confirming that, I kept my eyes on Reus and lowered his waist.

Hooung!

In an instant, my hair fluttered wildly following the trail of the sword river that passed through my head. Despite the fact that he was keeping his eyes on Growl, cold sweat ran down his back as the fierce attack aimed at me.

I swung my sword at the same time as I got up from my seat as if to bounce off my bent body.

Kang!

However, as expected, I easily blocked my attack just by twisting the length of my wrist and sword blade. No matter how much I attacked, I couldn’t see a gap. Then you have to give it a variable.

I used the extended blade of the sword without going against it and drove the sword into the ground. At the same time as he concentrated his mana, the shadow that burst out like an explosion collapsed at the feet of Reus.

“Kahah!!”

Aiming at that gap, Hive, accompanied by all the remaining crows, poured down from the sky. It was a tactic to bring out [Violence of Numbers] To the maximum extent, the higher the number, the higher the damage inflicted.

“…!”

No matter how hard he was, he hurriedly swung his sword at Graul as his two legs, which he had been firmly supporting, floated in the air for an instant, but he did not pose a danger with an attack that lacked power.

Tung!!

“Kong!”

“Kuh?!”

In a power struggle that had never been lost so far, the sword pushed back with counter-elastic force, and the flock of crows that had fallen naturally began to claw and peck at Reus’ body without rest, as if cutting through his empty body.

“!!!”

At that moment, his voice filled with magic resonated, and in an instant, transparent shield-shaped magic flowed out of his outstretched hand as if protecting him from crows.

To Do Do Do Do!!!

The noise of the crows rushing down at the shield that shimmered like an aurora sounded like a heavy rain. No matter how much magic he strengthened, he couldn’t handle the falling attack like crazy, so a crack formed in his shield and his body began to grow more and more.

As soon as he was about to retrieve his shield and swing his sword, Growl appeared through the crow’s gap and bit the sword.

Kwaduk!

The swinging sword stopped. He pulled his sharp spear out of the shadow and threw it at his side, which had stopped in a defenseless state. I tried to swing my sword to stop him, but the biting Graul did not budge.

Pooguk!!

“…!!”

Eventually, a shadow pierced his side. Then, the size of the shield guarding his surroundings grew even larger, and the air currents of magic that swirled around him grew even thicker. The moment he let out a silent scream

Quaaang!!!

I hurriedly cast out a shadow at the unexpected release of huge magical energy, creating a huge shield in front of me and at the same time fixing my feet on the ground so that I wouldn’t be blown away.

Kidduk, Kkadudeuk!

The shadows began to crack and break in real time. I made the most of my mana to reinforce the shadow. When the storm of magic stopped, the many crows disappeared cleanly. Graul also flew far away.

He could be seen holding his stomach in one in the center of the storm, panting heavily. Now, when his exhaustion is evident, is his chance. I molded the shield I used for reinforcement as it is and reduced it to the shape of a sword.

He released his magic once again and raised his sword, and my sword collided with him.

Kang!

I endured. It wasn’t pushed out, and it didn’t get any power. Sword strength, which seemed so powerful, was now simply wrapped in magical power. Possible. I paid tribute to the majesty of a knight who had finally reached an equal position with me.

‘Awesome’

If I were in his shoes, would I have been able to make it this far? I don’t think so. He’s awesome The opponent just wasn’t good.

In the end, the status of a student who is still learning is just that. If he had that much magical power, he would definitely consider another method, but he dealt with everything honestly.

In other words, he was unnecessarily stubborn. He couldn’t put himself down.

In the end of the battle, only the result of death or death remains. The victor is the one who survives to the end. It is said that the one who survives is the winner no matter what.

Boom!!

I swung my sword without hesitation. Unlike me, who had perfect stamina, Reus’ panting got worse as the battle continued. I continued to attack, focusing on the arm that Graul had attacked him with.

Sometimes I stretched the shadow to make it into a spear, stabbing him, and twisting the steps of his feet so that he could not attack properly. He placed the stick of shadow in accordance with the obviously slow attack route, spilled the flow of attack, and stabbed the skewer of shadow aiming for an empty gap.

Even though it was a tactic repeated several times, the other party suffered it. Because you have no immunity against outwitting opponents? No. He’s doing it on purpose. Just to keep the conviction he initially expressed.

He is a knight. A knight who steps forward squarely and protects everyone. A hard being that calls itself a sword.

‘What is that conviction?’

I naturally frowned at the sight of him struggling to protect his life even though his life was in danger. It seemed to me that they were demonstrating with all their might. You and i are different noble me and you

As if I was laughing at it from the front, I repeated the attack that might have stuck out my tongue out of cowardice, far from fair and square.

Aiming for vital points. Cover your eyes. Hide in the gaps of sight and launch a surprise attack. He pulls his hair, scratches it with his fingernails, and scratches the floor, scattering the dust in his eyes. That’s all that can be said, since all I’ve learned is this lowly thing.

For me, this is everything.

Despite being reborn like this, the fighting method deeply rooted in my bones made my body move naturally.

That’s one, two. The skewers stretched all over Reus’ body. He could have retrieved his mana and reaped it, but he deliberately neglected it. It would be harder to move your body that way. He made a hole in the things he had ached on his body and transformed it so that the blood flowed out from there.

“Cool…”

The cell gauge on his chest, which was quietly boiling blood, was already down to 10.

Chang!

[9%]

The moment I used my shoulder to deflect my attack, the double digits became one. At the same time, feeling an indescribable chilling sensation, I reflexively backed away.

‘…What is it?’

That feeling just now was the same as the huge magical storm earlier. As if waiting for my physical strength to drop, I let out a drool at the massive flow of magical power that began to suppress my surroundings.

“Mr. Baal…”

My whole body creaked.

A feeling similar to when Hong Soo-ah oppressed me began to take over this area. This is an obvious anomaly. Hong Soo-ah was able to produce that much output because she limited her subject to me. However, it feels like he is painting the inside of this barrier with his own magic.

[75%]

[74%]

[73%]

The gauge of the barrier cell decreased just by standing still. I chewed my teeth on that fact.

‘It’s late’

I shouldn’t have backed down even if I just forced myself to attack. I had no choice but to look around to find out what to do next.

How is Growl? It wasn’t good.

Even though he said he was avoiding it, it seems that he couldn’t be completely safe from the impact of the storm, and one of his front legs was completely blown off, and his side was also dented and blood was leaking out.

It was a fatal wound to the extent that it could be said that he barely survived because [Berserker’s Fighting Method] Reduced the damage.

Even so, Growl hasn’t given up on fighting yet. [The joy of battle] Moved his body. He was still pleading with me that he could fight, that it wasn’t over.

“…Whoa”

I channeled half of my remaining magical energy into Growl’s recovery. Then, as if shining pieces gathered, they began to fill the void left by Graul. The ship turns later. First of all, you need to recover your legs.

“Do you know why Bagna is called a family of knights rather than a family of swordsmen?”

His body got bigger. No, it felt that way. Giant. The cohesion of huge magical power, like a mountain, further highlighted his presence. He slowly raised his sword.

“Because we cannot be defined simply by swordsmanship.”

Clear, golden magical light flowed from his pupils. As if to have the same size as the giant I felt, the flow of magical energy gathered towards the sword, so I retrieved the magical power directed to Graul and sent him back at the same time.

It’s already too late.

The completed sword of enormous magical power pierced the air. It looked like a pillar of light. I wanted to move forward, but the force of the magical power that oppressed me was so strong that I couldn’t move.

“The first Bagna was able to destroy the enemy’s castle single-handedly. A giant’s blow that can cut down even the thickest walls, that’s the power of the first Bagna.”

Clap

“I will That it is not an exaggerated nonsense.”

At the same time as the magical power felt from his words, the somewhat indiscreet appearance of the sword was condensed into a firm form and hardened. It has gone beyond simple use. I felt the power of skill working on him.

“Sure…”

As he swallowed his breath, all the magical powers that oppressed me disappeared. I was relieved of the stiffness, but I couldn’t think of moving from the spot. No matter how busy he moved now, he couldn’t get out of the sword’s path anyway.

That’s how the technology was designed.

“!! This is truly ‘Gaebyeok’!!!”

The Bagna family secret.

The first sword.

Gaebyeok Sword (開劈劍).

As I shouted, the sword drawn horizontally from top to bottom aimed at me and swung. I laughed at the sight of the giant sword approaching in real time.

‘f*ck’

The real world is full of things I don’t like from beginning to end. I quietly closed my eyes. Then, I channeled all my magical energy toward the shadow beneath his feet.

Flash!

“Kahah!!”

“…?!”

Now Reus was stunned by the appearance of Hive, who was holding his breath and hiding in the shadows, just as he was swinging his sword. However, he is unable to retrieve the sword that has already been swung. That’s not just swinging a sword, it’s a kind of phenomenon that accompanies magical power itself.

All of them are like that. So if you’re aiming for a sword, you should aim for the user, not the sword.

I have never taken my eyes off his body. [Observation] Created a pattern of his behavior based on that information, and the smallest action he took made it possible to know where, how, and how far he was attacking.

“Increase”

The blade of shadow clinging to Hive’s body swelled in an instant and shook the ground he was supporting. A little twisted axis, that was enough.

Ting!

The sword cut through the air.

Hair fluttered in all directions, and a formidable flash burst out in the aftermath. The ground cracked and cracked. If the gates of hell were open, this would surely be the scene. A creator so gigantic as to think so appeared right next to me.

Mysteriously, there was no noise despite that amount of destruction. Only the result of ‘cutting’ was engraved on the earth.

[12%]

The problem is that the cell’s gauge was completely cut in the aftermath. But it was the same with Reus. I walked slowly and arrived in front of Reus, who was holding out half panting.

The cell on his chest was [1%].

If he was the original one, he wouldn’t have stumbled just because the floor collapsed. But he collapsed. The accumulation of accumulated damage eventually exploded. The real-time blood loss must have added to its role.

“…I lost”

“Yes”

For some reason, his expression, calmly accepting the reality, looked cool. I put the sword of shadow that I squeezed out of my last mana into his throat.

“What’s so good about gin?”

“I’ve confirmed that my eyes aren’t cloudy yet, so that should be fine”

After saying that, Reus took a short breath and tucked his sword into his waist and lay down on the floor.

“What is that?”

“Didn’t I tell you from the beginning. I believed Ban Tae-woong’s words of trusting you. But the people around you were saying you were evil. I had to prove my beliefs weren’t wrong, yet I wasn’t an idiot. That’s it.”

I think I know something, but I don’t know. The thing that looked like a stone key was giving out so many things that the subject was all missing, so disharmony came and his head throbbed naturally.

How are you talking about me around the main character’s bastard? It seemed that we needed to meet sooner or later.

“…That’s it. What can I do to know your situation?”

“Keuhehehe, with those words, I learned more about you as a human being.”

What do you think is good? After all, there are no normal people among those who are called geniuses. The source is me That’s because I experienced it myself. If you get to know this guy who seems normal, you can tell he has a screw missing somewhere in his head.

“Just grow up”

I thought if I continued to get involved with these guys, even I would lose the screws in my head, so I decided to end it quickly. He lowered his sword and stabbed the cell on his chest.

[0%]

[The match is over!]

[Winner: Jang Shin-woo]

With that, the barrier surrounding it was broken. Looking up at the sky, there was a sign that I had won. At the same time, a system alarm popped up in one corner of my field of vision.

[You have made full use of the skills you have and made you recognize a target that is overwhelmingly stronger than you.]

[The summoner’s job level has increased.]

[The level of the skill [Staff] Increases.]

[The strength ability has increased by 1.]

[The level of the skill [Endurance] Increases.]

[The strength ability has increased by 1.]

[The level of the skill [Observation] Increases.]

[Intelligence has increased by 1.]

[The level of the skill [Battle Command] Will increase.]

[The skill level has increased by 1.]

[The skill [Sadism] Is learned through repeated mastery.]

I didn’t specifically defeat any monsters, but my level went up on my own. It seems that sparring is also treated as an experience point. Well, that’s why the people who are professionally trained in the family are strong like that.

The system didn’t recognize it. He is much stronger than me Perhaps, if it hadn’t been for the bizarre beliefs of proof and all, it would have been me, not Reus, lying down there.

I won, but it didn’t seem like I won. I didn’t like it because it stayed in my chest.

I looked down at the paramedics running from the other side.

As if he had lost consciousness, his breathing gradually became lower as he closed his eyes, which had been slowly closing. Now, the sound of his breathing was weak enough to question whether he was breathing properly. He looks like he’ll die soon, but he’s not.

The wounds on his body began to heal and disappear quickly, but his physical condition was still not good.

It’s because he shed too much blood, apart from the wound.

A pale complexion and a body that trembles frequently as if convulsing against one’s will. Still, there was a faint smile on his lips.

“…Tsk”

I clicked my tongue and turned the sword of shadow into a blanket and covered it over him. The approaching paramedic looked at this curiously, but ignored it and left.

From the beginning to the end, he was the same guy.
