NOVEL NEXT chapter 26
(26)
an honorable defeat
“Is your teacher’s friend really the Heavenly Demon?”
“Then is there a fake Heavenly Demon? But how do you know that guy?”
Anyone who has read martial arts novels a few times will know.
The Heavenly Horse is an axis that bisects the Moorim, which is divided into the Jeong faction and the Sa faction.
Because he is the absolute leader of what is called the Demonic Cult or the Heavenly Demonic Cult.
Even when my work was being serialized, Cheonma was quite a hot subject.
In addition to existing martial arts novels, there were also novels about going to a fantasy world and killing a dragon, reincarnating in modern times to become a gang leader, reincarnating to open a bakery, and even raising children.
“I don’t remember the details, but I think I was looking for an old story.”
“Well, he was quite famous in Moorim. Still, I never won.”
I thought it would be strong enough since I even defeated a dragon, but I would never have thought that my friend would be a thousand miles.
“You said you had two close friends, right? Then who is the other one?”
“There is a Malco guru who likes to drink, called Sambong with the surname Jang, who always talks about Taegeuk. I made a modang or a shaman or a munpa. Isn’t that him too?”
ruler… Jang Sam-bong?

Perhaps he thought that it would be enough to avoid sympathy, but he moved his body to the left to avoid the flying sword, but it was useless.
bang! Quaang! bang! Quaang!
Most of the sword steel fragments flew towards the sympathetic side, but some hit the barrier and caused an explosion.
There were as many as three layers covering the arena, from the magic stone barrier installed in the existing arena to the barrier made by the two teachers, but all but the last layer were smashed.
The last barrier also looks pretty precarious… . Even though most of the fragments went to the vice-principal, it was this much. If my inspection had been perfect, an accident might have happened.
I didn’t know because I’d never put my energy to this level in practice, but as the master said, at least one moment of destructive power is really the best.
However, most of the sympathy that was hit by fragments is still standing.
Of course, things don’t look that good.
There are holes in the clothes here and there, and even blood seeps through the torn clothes.
It seems that the steel body of sympathy, which is said to withstand even the auror sword, could not be stopped until the sword steel.
“It’s more than I thought. I never expected to be able to attack like this with a sword.”
It was just as the master expected.
No matter how much experience you have in practice, sympathy is a method that can never come out in this world without martial arts.
“It was ingenious, but now you don’t have a sword. The promised advance service is over.”
That’s right, there’s no sword anymore, and that guy will start attacking too.
But the match has already been decided.
“Look at the situation now. Surely you’re not going to insist on saying it wasn’t a valid attack, are you?”
The face of sympathy suddenly darkens.
“no… .”
“No what? Didn’t you agree earlier?”
It’s very embarrassing.
If the vice-principal concedes the first attack, this was my intention from the beginning.
It’s been a while since I learned it, and it’s an imperfect swordsman, but if you fight properly against a monster that’s still standing after receiving the Heavenly Demon’s sword, you’re sure to lose.
The attack was only once, but there were 5 holes in the communion’s clothes… No, 10 is more than enough.
Even though I couldn’t kick his butt, it’s as if I’ve already done what I said to the master ten times.
I was really lucky.
“wealth… I definitely said that, but I didn’t do anything, but to end it like this… .”
“Did I first ask you to give up the first attack? It was the vice-principal who made the concession.”
“… .”
“If you have nothing to say, I will call the referee.”
I thought it would come up right away, but it seems that I’m busy trying to deal with it because my sword fragments destroyed a lot of barriers that were installed.
“ruler… wait for a sec. Yes, I will let you pick up the sword again.”
I don’t know if it’s because he’s worried about losing his face if he loses like this, or because he wants to fight me properly, but he’s so nasty.
“I don’t like it. I already won, so why fight more?”
“There are so many students waiting… Yes, the students Mr. Kang teaches are cheering for me like that, isn’t it a pity to end it like this?”
“My teacher is the best!”
“Swordsmanship is the future!”
“You’re handsome, Shinhyuk Kang!”
When I made a good save, our disciples went into a frenzy.
But I think Jinsu shouted that at the end, but thank you for your support… Boy, am I your friend?
You are the 2nd semester attitude score score.
Anyway, seeing the students cheering me on, my heart was a little shaken, but I couldn’t help it.
“I don’t regret it at all.”

Just in time, the outside of the arena seemed to have been settled to some extent, and the referee came up to the arena.
“The magic stones that maintain the barriers in the arena are severely damaged, so two magician teachers decided to put more barriers on them.”
“You don’t have to. Because the fight is already over.”
“Yes? ah… .”
The teacher in charge of refereeing can’t hide his embarrassed expression when he sees the state of sympathy.
“What do you mean, Mr. Kang? It’s not over yet.”
No, this old man… .
“Vice-principal, you look pathetic, so please stop.”
thud-.
As Kim Man-dong stepped on the advance with his horse, a part of the arena made of solid rocks cracked.
It seems like you’re just venting your anger on the floor, but if you do, I’ll never fight.
“Surely, didn’t I say that it was a valid attack before the sparring started? As you can see, I am unmoved.”
look at your status now
The clothes are full of holes and even blood… No, has the blood stopped already?
Anyway, this is absurd no matter who sees it.
“If the vice-principal said so, it would be so. Then we’ll continue sparring.”
I’m so dumbfounded that I’m speechless.
under… . yes. I forgot for a second.
The teacher in charge of refereeing is also a practical teacher and a hunter.
Of course, all the practical teachers at school hate me, so I expected that there might be a biased judgment.
However, since Kim Man-dong is not the kind of person to stand by for such an absurdity, I thought it would be okay… .
“Sensei Kang, shouldn’t we go and grab the sword? I will give you that much consideration.”
It seems like there will be real swearing.
What on earth did the original author have in mind when he called such a character fair and just?
What is the right thing to do with such nonsense?
It’s not because of his face, but even if he really wants to fight me, it’s not like he’s forced to.
I was completely disappointed in the man named Kim Man-dong, whom I was looking good at.
“All right.”
It’s absurd, but I grabbed the sword that fell on the floor again with an answer.
If I argue that I won’t do it here, it won’t be accepted and I’ll become a strange person again.
Fortunately, after reaching the peak, the speed of recovery accelerated, and most of the inner energy that was used earlier was recovered.
Even if the chances are slim, you can’t lose to a person who uses such nonsense.
I distanced myself thinking that I would somehow embarrass myself.
“Then we will resume.”
Before the referee goes down, Kim Man-dong quickly runs towards me.
It seems to be faster than anyone I’ve dealt with so far, but it’s not that I can’t react.
Booung.
A fist almost the same size as my face came flying at me, but I barely twisted my body to avoid it.
Quaang!
However, I couldn’t avoid the left hand that followed, so I blocked it with my sword.
I was pushed back with a mad sound, but it was dumbfounded.
Even if it wasn’t sword steel like before, it was definitely a bare fist that bumped into a sword with young sword skills, but it was fine without a single wound.
Each shot went beyond heaviness and felt as if a large steel rock flew in and collided with it.
Booung.

Just now, I bent my head to barely avoid a fist flying at my face, but the wind pressure brushing my cheek naturally chilled my spine.
Quaang! Quaang!
Attacks are pouring in succession.
Perhaps because he was aware of the counterattack, he didn’t use his feet, but it was quite difficult with only two hands.
I avoided as many things as possible and blocked the rest. I haven’t crashed in less than 10 times, but I feel like I’m going to break my wrist.
I thought there would be no hope if I just blocked it, so I took advantage of the recoil generated when I bumped into it and stepped back.
He knew he would catch up right away and prepared for it, but maybe he thought he had a chance to win, so he didn’t catch up and took his time.
“Are you thinking of using the same technique again?”
No way.
As the power of the Heavenly Demon sword is explosive, it consumes a lot of inner energy.
There’s nothing that can’t be used if you overdo it, but I don’t think the skills I’ve already shown once will work again.
It doesn’t look like you’ll be waiting in the first place.
He didn’t answer and focused only on infusing the sword with energy.
As the black energy gradually deepened, they rushed in quickly as if they would not give it time.
Now there is no such thing as the number of prepared trump cards.
There was not much difference in speed, so I blocked and avoided it well, but the difference in durability was too great.
The old man’s fist, which had collided dozens of times with a sword with poor sword skill, is perfectly fine, but if I block it a few more times, my wrist bones will break.
To be honest, it was enough to prove my skills just by enduring without major damage with an S rank.
I think I can give up, but I don’t want to save the energy of Yeonggamtaeng, who started the sparring again by force.
All the disciples are watching, but that can’t be the case.
Unlike before, I did not block the flying fist with my sword, but with my left arm.
f*ck! Pududeuk-.
Despite the injection of internal energy, the pain came with the sound of bones breaking, but he endured it and swung his sword as it was, slashing the left arm of the sympathizer diagonally.
It felt like being stabbed with iron rather than flesh, but I pushed the knife all the way in.
Yukchamgoldan (肉斬骨斷), give the flesh and cut the bones.
Even if my skills aren’t enough, it’s only the Gool Cham Team instead of the Yuk Cham Gol Dan.
Because this is the best I can do right now.
* * *
When I open my eyes, I see an unfamiliar ceiling.
Rubbing my eyes and looking around, it doesn’t seem like a hospital… Ah, it’s like the school health room I’ve been to a few times before.
Did you pass out?
At the end, I gave up my left arm and cut the vice-principal’s left arm.
Of course, it wasn’t sword steel, so it bounced out in the end.
And it seems that he couldn’t react to the attack of sympathy that followed, so he probably passed out at that time.
It’s a bit embarrassing to faint in front of so many people, but I’m satisfied.
The sword I made on the vice-principal’s right arm.
It was a very small sword wound, less than three inches long, but I could clearly see that blood was oozing out of it.
Surely you didn’t claim that it was an invalid wound?
a… well, it doesn’t matter anymore
Regardless of whether I won or lost in Dalian, I intend to receive an exemption from training unconditionally.
I set the rhythm to the absurd force, but if you have a conscience, you will of course be exempted.
“Oh, Mr. Kang, are you awake?”
I heard the sound of tossing and turning, and the curtains were drawn.
I saw a health teacher wearing a white coat, but it was also the health room.
“Ah yes. How long have I been here?”
“It’s been about four hours.”
So, I heard that it is past 11 o’clock now.
I’m sorry that you haven’t been able to get off work until now because of me.
I get up right away and give strength to my arms thinking about going back… uh?
My arm doesn’t have enough strength.
“Lie down a little longer. I’ve been cured with magic, but my bones are completely shattered, so it will take another two hours for my senses to fully return.”
I thought I was crippled for a moment, so I was worried, but after hearing what the health teacher said, I remembered.
Even in the original work, most wounds are healed with healing magic, but there was such an inconvenience.
“sorry. You can’t even go to work because of me.”
“No. I also live in a dorm anyway. And the vice-principal specifically asked me to watch it until he woke up.”
It’s not about getting sick and giving medicine.

Just try not to exempt me from training tomorrow.
“I’m fine, so you can go to the dormitory.”
After all, the health teacher is also a hunter who uses healing magic, so he won’t look very kindly at me.
Besides, since she’s a young woman, it’s just awkward to be with her.
“You don’t like it?”
“Yes?”
“Actually, even my father told me to leave it there during curfew, but I deliberately waited.”
Did you wait on purpose… No, wait. father?
