All Warriors Are My Disciples

29. Passed

Even city guards can handle low-level monsters.

The outer skin was not strong, and it did not possess poisonous blood.

It is correct to say that they are no different from monsters except for their ferocious appearance.

So far, everyone on the continent has not been in great despair.

Because most of the monsters that appear are of such a low class.

Because I can resist enough, and that resistance is not meaningless.

If I fought, I could endure, and if I endured, I could eventually live.

However, the level is different from mid-level monsters.

The skin is no longer sharp, and the blood is toxic.

It’s not just how ferocious it looks, its savagery is many times stronger.

There is no way to be an ordinary soldier, and skilled mercenaries or knights must stick together.

To borrow the expression of this world, those who handle mana.

Only those who were able to slay mid-level monsters.

‘Then, how about Iris now?’

Unlike other disciples who can handle high-level monsters without difficulty.

The current Iris must be quite difficult even for intermediate level monsters.

Basic stamina, skills, or attitude, these parts are enough.

The problem is a skill that handles mana, which is essential from mid-level monsters.

In other words, drawing out the energy within the body is far less than the other disciples.

“Ha!”

Chack!-

This time, Iris’s sword accurately passed through the belly of a mid-level monster.

Originally, it was right that blood flowed from that blow.

The monster had to be seriously injured.

However, Iris’ sword didn’t have enough energy to pierce the outer shell and damage the inside.

It’s not that it’s not completely unbearable, but it’s extremely fragile.

I even taught them how to practice Mana, which transformed the Heavenly Demon Art, but their growth was too slow.

“Ha ha.”

I let out a sigh.

It’s not that I hate Iris or that I’m disappointed.

He put in a lot of effort, and he worked really hard.

Although he grumbled and used a bit of a tantrum, there was no training he didn’t do.

The problem is that despite all the effort, the achievement is so insignificant.

It was common for other students to rise almost vertically in one year.

Iris had trouble drawing diagonal lines, let alone vertical lines.

Keruk!!-

While wielding hideous claws, the intermediate level monster is about to pierce Iris as it is.

While holding the master’s sword, I prepare to go out before the next thing happens.

I hope Iris succeeds, but I also consider failure.

If you don’t pass, you can prepare for another test, but if you die, that’s it.

Kagak! Kak! Kang!-

He’s still doing the defense part fairly easily.

He thought it might be embarrassing since it was his first encounter with a mid-level monster.

Even so, there is no sign of panic or shrinking at all.

Rather, it was good to see her biting her lip and the hostility burning in her eyes.

I think I’m seeing a little bit of a warrior now.

Now I feel like I’m a true disciple, so I feel proud.

Kerrureuk! Keruk!!-

Even an intermediate level monster doesn’t lose an eye and gets along very well with Iris.

It’s not like a low-ranking monster with no intelligence at all.

Basically, I do what I think, and sometimes I dig traps or lure them.

Of course, it’s so one-dimensional that it’s rarely fooled.

Aside from that, they instinctively attack the weakest.

The weakest ones here are the man and the child that the one-eyed woman is blocking.

And since Iris is perfectly blocking it, there is no way to leak anywhere else.

‘It would be perfect if I didn’t run away.’

The win rate is probably about 8 for Iris and 2 for monsters.

Although it is weak, Iris can certainly damage it.

On the other hand, monsters are in a state where they cannot lay a hand on Iris.

Even a huge rock will eventually crack when water drops continue to fall on it.

It is clear that he will not be able to go far if he is at the level of knocking down with a chisel.

Iris’ movements were quite restrained.

He doesn’t panic, he doesn’t run wild, he doesn’t just look for opportunities.

Perhaps it could be said that it is a normal level with no special features.

That level of passability was what Iris needed.

Chack!-

Just attacked, went in properly.

Perhaps if the energy drawn from the sword was a little stronger.

The monster’s head would have been cut off with a snap.

Keruk! Gehehehe!-

Blood gushed out of the gaping wound.

He’s a guy who came up with human blood as a medium.

Of course, if you couldn’t absorb that blood and instead took it away.

It was only natural that they would eventually disappear.

Rolling around -.

The monster’s bright red eyes roll around.

Looks like they’re looking for somewhere to replenish blood.

Unfortunately, I ate all the blood from the corpses around here.

Then all that remains is to find a new blood sacrifice.

However, even that is impossible. Once Iris is not penetrated, the three humans cannot be approached.

I can’t aim for the weakest looking human, so I’m the only one left….

Kirruk!-

He’s not a complete idiot either.

I am just staring blankly without any preparation.

In fact, I instinctively know that he is the most dangerous guy here.

That’s why he doesn’t even look at me properly, he just looks at me.

“Where are you selling your eyes!”

Looks like it was very annoying to roll your eyes in front of yourself.

While Iris shouted, she raised her sword again and charged at him.

I cut off all of the arms he was wielding, and aim for his torso again.

Blood splatters in all directions from the barrel, which is slowly but surely accumulating.

Since I’ve accumulated quite a lot of damage, I wondered if it would be okay now.

“… Tsk.”

At the end, the tip of Iris’ sword shook slightly.

I’ve already fought well over 20 minutes, and I swung my sword without a moment’s rest.

It wasn’t that her stamina was exhausted, but she couldn’t even keep her breathing constant.

It was a bit rough, and I could feel the slight shaking.

Concentrate, Iris. Don’t mess You just need to trim it.

I watched Iris’s attack again while cheering for the disciple in my heart.

Keruk!-

A tentacle protrudes from the monster’s grasp and flies towards Iris.

Whether to block or evade, Iris chose the latter.

Looks like you chose that method to minimize movement and stamina consumption.

Anyway, the monster seemed to be one step ahead this time.

“No!”

“Oh?”

The previous attack wasn’t aimed at him.

It was Iris who finally realized that it was directed at the family who had been careless behind it for a while.

When viewed from the side, the slightly changing attack path was clearly visible.

From Iris’ point of view, it must have seemed like an attack aimed at herself.

That’s why he didn’t think that he would skip himself and target someone else.

“Keep off….”

The monster followed its instinct and aimed at the weakest.

A child barely surviving.

I was aiming for someone who had no weapon and no ability to fight, and the one-eyed woman who noticed it threw herself.

As a result, she was spitting blood with her torso pierced.

Kirruk! Kiruk!-

It wouldn’t be my mistake to feel that sound as if it were laughing at Iris.

“Oh, Mom. Mom!”

Along with the child’s scream, a violent sound of sucking blood can be heard.

Although Iris cut off that tentacle right after that.

Already mortally wounded, the one-eyed woman just keeps pouring her blood out of her mouth.

“… This bastard.”

For a moment, I wondered if I had heard it wrong.

Has Iris ever cursed? Wasn’t she never there?

In any difficult and arduous situation, even if you grumble or scream.

She was a disciple who had never used abusive language.

Pass….

A hazy halo of light gathers around Iris’ sword.

It’s still not a great development, but it’s incomparably brighter than before.

It seems that the monster also noticed something unusual.

Looking for a way to escape while making a fuss in a hurry.

However, Iris so easily penetrated the turmoil and dug in between them.

“Disgusting bastards. You guys, really from beginning to end….”

A bright cluster of lights, a sword imbued with energy.

From top to bottom, it falls down in a large oblique line.

Blood splatters everywhere and screams fill the underground cavity.

Iris was not satisfied with that one attack.

I went down from the top, now I’m going up again from the bottom.

With the sound of flesh splitting smoothly on a blade.

Iris purses her lips and straightens her sword, this time making a straight, horizontal cut.

Fughak!-

A sound similar to that of a large water balloon popping was heard.

Colossal amounts of blood spurt out in all directions and the monster stumbles.

I tried to absorb the blood dripping from my body again.

Iris wasn’t the kind of person who would just watch something like an idiot.

The guy’s sword draws a big circle and slices through the place that was already split.

As he tried to make a last stand, he stood still and slowly fell backwards.

The moment his body touched the floor, he became a huge pool of blood and scattered in all directions.

With that, that was the end.

“….”

I glanced at Iris, and she still had a furious expression on her face.

Originally, he’s a guy who jumps and jumps happily, but that would be normal.

Seeing that even her hands were shaking, she seemed to be very agitated.

“Iris.”

“….”

“Iris.”

He doesn’t answer even after calling twice.

I just turn around and look at the one-eyed woman who is slowly dying, coughing up blood.

In the end, I got up from my seat and went right to the side.

f*ck!-

It was a guy who barely came to his senses after feeding him honey chestnuts.

“Ah.”

“Are you making me call you three times instead of twice now? You damn disciple.”

“Ah, ah…. I’m sorry. Mo, I don’t think I heard.”

“I am proud of it. Boy.”

“….”

“It took a little while, but in the end it was pretty good.”

“Is that so? Thank god. Really… Relief….”

Still Iris is from a dying one-eyed woman.

And she had a child hanging beside him crying, and a man sobbing as he was dying.

At first, he gave me a look full of enemies.

Now I’ve been looking at it with quite a shaken gaze.

“Are you sympathetic?”

“… No.”

“Then why are you looking at me that way?”

“… I don’t know.”

At Iris’ answer, I nodded her head and turned around.

I’ve killed all the demon worshipers, and I’ve seen the growth of Iris, so I have nothing to do anymore.

As I move toward the entrance I came in, something suddenly grabs my ankle.

Turning her head, she saw the dying, one-eyed woman wringing her last strength to cling to it.

“… She should have warned you not to get tangled up.”

“Boo, please. Ah, only child. Even a child… De, take….”

“What about you? What about your husband?”

Then, a mixture of blood and tears flowed from the eyes of the only remaining woman.

Did you think that you and the man were wrong?

I wonder if he wanted to save even a child who could be saved.

“Are you stupid?”

Perhaps the fool is right. That one-eyed woman.

“Will a child who has lost both his mother and father live well? The child has no mother and no father. Would she be buying that?”

While kicking her tongue, he coldly shook the woman’s hand.

I honestly didn’t mean to do this, but she changed her mind.

“Sixth. Please do me a favor.”

As soon as I finish my words, a pure white light begins to fill the entrance.

And a very clear voice rang out in the flash.

“As of this hour, I will declare my ministry.”
