chapter 42
42. Trial Period (2)
I went up to the podium and swept the students in a depressed state.
Ailon, who received the highest score of A-, and Luina, who received a failing score, both had similar expressions.
It may have been a problem for students who were still young.
But false praise doesn’t help.
Do you think warm praise and encouragement make people grow?
it’s dog shit
Comfort causes laziness.
They should never be idle.
[LIFE TIME : 25 months]
Now there are only two years left.
Two years later, a terrible invasion of Grasco takes place.
In order to survive in that horrific scene, it is not enough to just be satisfied with it.
improvement spirit.
You must be higher in order to survive.
Wait, I’ll fix it.
for me to survive
“You go to a higher place.”
It will demand a higher level of you.
Accept, absorb.
For the first year of the academy, or for those who have not yet experienced the field, it will be a very difficult day.
However, don’t worry.
“I will help.”
Surely, I will save you… No, I will survive.
“Let’s finish today’s class with this.”

[The Holy Empire opens its mouth about the full story of ‘Professor Lucas’ arrest case’]
[Professor Lucas, it was cooperation, not arrest.]
[A grateful existence that removed the dark clouds that fell on the Holy Empire.]
[(Exclusive interview) President Alan, ‘Professor Lucas is more perfect in both theory and practice than any other article I’ve seen.’]
[Aerok, ‘I want to be revealed in detail in the three-party talks.’]
[Bert ‘I apologize for the loss of Professor Lucas’ honor.’]
[(Special Report) What happened in the Holy Empire that day? (Subtitle: Birth of a Hero)]
“…you’ve inflated it needlessly.”
It was a scenario that I had told you beforehand, but somehow it is exaggerated.
Alan’s exclusive interview with the president of the Society was a series of sequels, and ‘Sul’, which was published with a special report, was topped with a large amount of MSG.
Thanks to this, people’s aggro was definitely attracted, and I was able to keep up with Yuren-related matters, but…
It’s terrifying to think that these eyes will pour on me.
To the last, it happened because of the perks that I got from passing 10,000 in advance, so if you ask me to reproduce it, I can’t do it.
‘That’s why I’m trying to be strong.’
In particular, the level of students should be raised sharply.
That is why I am enduring the pain of being crushed in my head, reading the basic swordsmanship book, analyzing various papers, and dismantling all known swordsmanship methods.
He folded the newspaper he had picked up to cool his head, put it aside, and threw himself into the pile of papers and books spread out in the office again.
The mental fatigue is considerable.
This is something that cannot be fixed even with daily recovery,

I have the same support as Park Ha-soo.
Thanks to that, the accumulated gold is considerable.
In addition, the points are also very accumulated.
I was able to overcome it by raising the stats of ‘concentration’ and ‘spirit’ to the limit.
The essence of all these efforts will be put into one lecture.
‘This will suffice for lectures before the exam.’
I got up with a perfectly organized lecture summary in my bag.
Now is the time to pass this knowledge on to your students.

A commotion that can be felt from afar.
The whole of Grasco is engulfed by something like a strange heat, and it makes a lot of noise, but it’s the same for the classroom I’m heading to.
Bump-
As soon as you open the door, the noise stops.
Instead, eyes filled with subtle expectations fill that void.
“I will start the lecture. The core task of this lecture is <realization of ‘hyung’>.”
It seems like everyone has heard the news.
Strangely overestimated records come back warmly with anticipation.
But there is no time to release those expectations.
“There, Professor. If you don’t mind, what happened at Berthe…”
Sureung-
Someone mustered up the courage to speak, but he pulled the sword out of its sheath as if to cut it into pieces.
“You must have lost your mind yet.”
School Academic Award. Deyan- Locke Sword, Infinity Slash.
At the tip of my sword, the decisive cause that gave Deyan a B- yesterday, the Infinity Slash, was reappearing.
But it was different, like Deyan’s.
[The skill of <Infinity Slash> is linked with <Basic Swordsmanship> due to the effect of <Manryu Demon>.]
For now, I focused only on ‘form’, excluding power.
What I want is not to follow Infinity Slash as it is, but to add my understanding.
So- Replica goes beyond the real thing and approaches perfection.

After the inspection, I couldn’t even hear the sound of breathing.
as if it were a luxury.
I posed the key question of today’s lecture to Deyan, who was lost in his mind.
“Deyan, tell me what is the difference between your Infinity Slash and mine.”
“Well, that’s… that’s why….”
Again, Deyan did not answer easily.
He would have simply thought of the ‘center of gravity’ I pointed out.
However, it is a factor to be considered when the overall completeness is achieved.
“Look.”
I drew my sword again and slowly disassembled and divided the ‘Infinity Slash’ one by one.
“This attack, which continues indefinitely, eventually begins with one line.”
All attacks eventually start with one line.
It all depends on how perfectly you complete this line.
“This line goes down from top to bottom.”

“From left to right, from right to left. diagonally-”
Hook, hoo- Hook!
After all, the basics of all groups are to start with ‘basic cutting’.

fundamental.
“Let’s try to rule out the movement just to succeed ‘hyung’. Then what is left?”
basic fencing.
The basic swordsmanship, which was considered to be just a wielding, became a ‘line’ and melted into all swordsmanship.
“But a question arises here. Should all ‘lines’ be straight lines?”
not.
“A line is just a line. Curves are also lines, and those that contain countless vibrations are also lines.”
It’s just that my basic swordsmanship takes the form of a straight line.
“Let’s look at that example with other things.”
The tip of my sword shook, and the eyes of the students followed.

The students had been through Lucas and thought that there would be no special admiration for them.
But it was their arrogance.
Lucas was now disassembling their vision.
A vision is a vision because it is transmitted secretly.
Such a vision, Lucas was very naturally and accurately embodied and dismantled one by one.
Lucas was doing all of this with just one eye.
Of course, there were some who showed widely known techniques, but most showed their own vision, the vision of the family.
They were using those skills precisely, more perfectly than they did.
It was unbelievable astonishing.
There was a taboo in which their visions were being dug up in front of them, but their visions that were being disassembled in his hands were not wasted at all. Rather, I just wanted to send a praise filled with awe.
There is more to be realized by the vision than the loss caused by being exposed to it.
Above all, it is correct that this type of research should have been hidden from Lucas.
But he was generously sharing his knowledge.
It was like a ‘society’ level lecture was continuing.
‘Writing… handwriting!’
For the first time in their lives, the students felt a strong desire to take notes.
I felt the need to record it anyway.
However, there was no way for them to carry writing instruments with them, who had spent their whole lives taking notes.
Valuable knowledge and enlightenment were about to fly into the air.
That was then.
As if possessed by someone, he pulled out his weapon and started following Lucas.
It was a signal, and everyone in the classroom pulled out their weapons, even though no one told them to.
Then I started drawing ‘lines’.
Start with Lucas.
“Your ‘goodness’ does not have to be the same as mine. like an auror Embrace your character Find the ‘good’ that best suits you.”
As Lucas said, he gradually added his own color.
ignorance.
I forgot the passage of time and concentrated on the lecture.
Have they ever shown such intense concentration in their lives?
Even these thoughts flowed unconsciously, and all consciousness was directed towards Lucas.
4 hours passed in an instant.

“That’s all for today.”
“ah······.”
Without realizing it, I sighed.
He was so focused that his muscles began to scream as the tension relaxed.
Some fell to the ground, while others were exhausted and lay flat on their backs.
The end of the lecture was disappointing, but if Lucas hadn’t cut it off, it might have had the adverse effect of being ill for several days or fainting without even having to repeat the lecture.
Lucas, the only intact person in this classroom, opened his mouth as he straightened his clothes and swept the students scattered around.
“Everyone knows that the midterm exams will start soon.”

Midterm exam.
As with all academies, this is one of the biggest events.
Unlike other faculties that examine theories, the combat department, which focuses on practice, also takes the form of practice in its test method.
It might be more appropriate to call it Dalian rather than a test.
Groups are formed, each competes against each other’s skills, and based on the results, opponents are evaluated.
The midterm exam is especially important because it also serves as a prelude to the academy competition called the ‘final exam’.
Representing the academy beyond simple grades and advancing to the ‘final exam’.
That is the main purpose of the ‘midterm exam’.
“You will participate in the midterm exam as students of ‘All About Combat’, not simply ‘Combat Faculty’.”
The ‘All About Combat’ course, which has been special since its birth, is by far the hottest potato in Grasco.
“There will be many eyes watching you.”
In particular, as Lucas became famous for building the Holy Empire, the phenomenon was further exacerbated. It is clear that they will have to turn on their eyes and watch to determine what they will look like in the first midterm exam they face after admission, and whether Lucas’s eyes are right or wrong.
“They will judge you, they will evaluate you. Even if you’re not a supervisor.”
At Lucas’ words, the weight of the title of a student of ‘All About Combat’ came to me.
“Don’t worry about that look. I will bear all of that. You only need to prove it to me in the midterm.”
When he said that he would bear all the weight alone, the eyes of the students turned to Lucas.
“The only thing you need to care about is me.”
That was correct.
The ‘All About Combat’ students came to Grasco to ask Lucas to learn, not to prove it to others.
Their priority is Lucas.
“So, I will replace the test in this lecture with a midterm exam.”
And a startling remark erupted from Lucas’ mouth.
“For the midterm exam, use only the realization of ‘hyung’, which is the core of this lecture. In particular, the preliminary round is limited to the use of the ‘line’ learned today. As soon as you use mana, you fail.”
There is no division of grades in ‘examination’.
In other words, in the preliminaries against the 1st year or against the 4th year, you have to pass the exam only with ‘Sun’.
Even if you go to the finals, you can only use the implementation of ‘hyung’.
In fact, it can be said to be the worst difficulty.
Fortunately, whether or not to advance to the final exam is not included in the evaluation.
“It will be natural for me to advance to the final exam, so I won’t have to talk about it.”
Oh, was it natural to go to the final exam?
