chapter 8
(8)
The location of the duel was decided as a spear training ground.
Of course, I didn’t suggest it, but I agreed to do it because I thought it would be troublesome to organize it again at the swordsmanship training ground.
There is a saying that even a mutt eats half of it at home, but that only applies when your skills are somewhat similar.
Looking around, there are quite a few people.
According to the dueling rules, it is enough to have three notaries, but many people came to see it because the incident took place in the teachers’ office.
There is a sympathetic principal who intervened earlier, and it seems that almost all the teachers in the office have come. Of course there are no students.
It would be better if the students were embarrassed to watch, but it seems the teachers controlled it.
In fact, in this honor duel, only murder is not allowed, but it is not good emotionally because it is actually a fight where a lot of blood is cut off in one place.
“What are you procrastinating on? If you’re not scared, come out quickly.”
Be quick-tempered too
I gave a smile to Mr. Park, who was looking at me with a worried expression, and I took my sword and moved to the center of the gymnasium.
“Everyone should know the basic rules of an honor duel. Just be aware that if you find yourself in a dangerous situation or think you’ve won, you can intervene and finish it off.”
It seems that the sympathizer thinks that I will lose when he warns in a heavy voice, not looking at me and looking at Mr. Jung.
They replied that they knew each other and stood a little apart.
The duel began with the sympathetic whistle.
When I use the unique energy in the danteon, my body is full of energy and I feel like I can do anything.
Of course, it hasn’t even been three months since I’ve been practicing my inner energy.
I didn’t eat wild ginseng like the main character, but I bought red ginseng instead of pheasant and took it every morning.
In addition, the master said that unrefined mana is weaker than inner energy.
I don’t think I’ll lose because I’ve converted all the mana I had into my energy.
I thought I would run at the same time as the start, but I’m keeping an eye on me to see if I’m completely sewage.
Did he decide that since the spear is longer than the sword, it is better to strike back?
Certainly there will be disadvantages depending on the length of the weapon, but I don’t particularly care.
“You confidently challenged me to a duel, so are you thinking of just defending yourself?”
“Puhahahaha! Total bullsh*t. I showed consideration by conceding the first attack because I thought it would end in an instant without being able to swing the sword once. If you’re scared, I’ll give up even now.”
“You don’t need that consideration, so come in.”
As I spoke, I flicked my fingers, and the fever rushed at me.
It is embarrassing to draw a spear diagonally from a distance where the sword cannot reach, perhaps because he does not want to miss the advantage of the weapon’s reach and length.
It was slower than I thought and it was a very honest attack.
thud-.
Still, the ground dug up a handful of power as if it were not at a level to be seen lightly.
Then, he swings the spear horizontally and vertically, and at this speed, he seems to be able to avoid it even with one eye closed.
I don’t know how far you are underestimating me.
I’m trying to tell you to do it right, but why do you look so hard on your face?
Is this true?
“Whoa, you dodged well like a rat.”
Seeing him provoking while breathing heavily, his mouth is still alive.
At first, he was so slow that he completely ignored me, so I thought he was fighting without strength, but he must have been attacking with sincerity.
This is only slightly faster than the students I teach.
Of course, since I am currently operating my inner energy, it may feel slow because all the senses have risen dramatically, but even so, it is disappointing that it is at this level.
I don’t think I’ll be able to stop it with just one light knife, let alone a skill check.
I thought I would never get tired of it, but since it was my first real match, I was a bit nervous, but I lost my energy and lost interest.
It seems that Cholyuyang also felt this way when he sparred with me, so it was annoying.
“It’s so slow that I’m about to burst out yawning. Are you calling this an attack?”
“This bastard is alive with only his mouth!”
I was able to dodge the incoming attack by piercing the spear once again with spirit, but this time I raised my sword to block it.
If we actually meet our weapons, the lost interest might come back even a little bit.
visor-.
hahahaha… . I only put 3 stars in my sword, but I didn’t feel any repulsive force.
I blocked Mr. Jung’s attack a few more times with my sword, but it’s not different from the first time.
“It’s half a penny, and it’s quite different from what it looks like, but it’s over now.”
Do you think I’m pushed because I just dodge and block?
As if it wasn’t a simple provocation, I don’t know what kind of technique he used, but his attacks became faster than before.
Yes, but it’s only slightly better.
If you think about it a little, you will be able to judge who is more at a disadvantage between me, who has always been relaxed, and Mr. Jeong, who is breathing heavily.
“Is this the best? It’s disappointing. I feel sorry for the children in the spear class.”
It seems to be less helpful than training alone, let alone checking your skills.
There is no point in fighting, so I must end it now.
Of course, I have no intention of winning moderately.
Perhaps angry at my remarks, he now wields his spear at random.
How can such a person be a teacher?
I evaded them all, breathed a little more energy into the sword, and cut the throat of the spear that stabbed again.
Took-tuk.
Only the spearhead remained, and the blade fell to the floor.
Not only the blade but also the spearhead seem to be made of metal, but my sword with 8-star energy can cut through steel.
If I had raised a sword skill, I would have cut it a little more smoothly, but among the hunters, sword skills were used from A rank, so I adjusted it a bit.

Just like you don’t use a cow slicing knife to kill chickens, you don’t have to show everything to deal with this guy.
Mr. Chung looked flustered when the spear blade fell, but he has no intention of stopping there.
Stepping on the steps, he approached and this time cut off the middle of the spear with the missing blade and thrust the knife into Mr. Jeong’s throat.
Of course, Mr. Jeong did not respond.
“It is over.”
There was a nurse who could use healing magic on standby anyway, so I thought about cutting off one of my arms or legs, but there were not only hunters among the people watching, but also teachers who taught general subjects, so I was considerate.
Took-.
In the end, Mr. Chung threw the bladeless spear that split in half to the floor.
“It seems that the match has been decided. From what I can see, the winner is Mr. Kang. Do you have any objections?”
The vice-principal approached and talked to me, but I still didn’t pick up the knife.
Because I haven’t exactly said that I’m abstaining yet.

Jeong’s face is red as if it’s about to burst.
Did you really know you had an advantage?
“No… There is not.”
I thought it was very embarrassing to speak with a face as red as a carrot, as if embarrassed, and withdrew the knife.
There was no applause or cheers, and everyone who watched, including the sympathy, looked surprised as if they didn’t think I would win.
“Mr. Kang can exercise the right of a winner.”
yes. winner’s right.
Even without applause or cheers, this was there.
Mr. Jeong demanded an apology from himself and Mr. Kim, but I did not say anything in particular at first.
What should I do?
To be honest, I don’t like Mr. Kim, who is the starting point of the work, more than Mr. Jung, but an honor duel can only be demanded from the loser.
In addition, since it must not go against the law and social norms, it is not something that can be ordered.
What, should I ask him to crawl on all fours like a dog and bark while passing between his crotches?
No, it doesn’t seem like much anyway.
There are so many teachers, but if you order something too strange, it could only damage my reputation more, and it would be difficult if Mr. Jeong committed suicide.
yes. I showed my skills earlier, so now it’s my turn to show that I’m a good person.
“All right. Well, from the time Mr. Jeong challenged me to a duel, it seemed like it was forced, but Mr. Kim seems to have stepped up because he was his girlfriend. Now that you have had this experience today, from now on, you should sort out the places you won’t go to and figure out your subject well.”
“So you’re saying you won’t exercise your rights?”
“The fact that Mr. Kim said nonsense to the students will be corrected through the mediation of the Vice Principal, and Mr. Jung was also shamed like this, and it would be pitiful to say more here.”
“Who would give me that kind of sympathy… .”
“Sympathy? Come to think of it, didn’t you say that you are older than me and have a long career as a teacher? If your pride is hurt, then at least rationalize yourself thinking that you have been considered.”
* * *
When I woke up to the sound of the alarm and checked my phone, it was the last alarm.
After yesterday’s duel, Mr. Park tried to persuade me to have a drink, so I drank too much.
It’s a little better because it raises your inner energy and reduces your alcohol energy a little.
skip breakfast?
It seems a bit tight, but I can’t give up rice, one of the joys of school life.
After simply washing and changing clothes, I headed to the restaurant hoping that bean sprout soup would be served this morning.
“uh? Hello, Sam.”
“hello.”
“yes. good morning.”
I greeted the students who greeted me casually and naturally took the table.
There are two types of breakfast, Western and Korean, but for Koreans, rice is more important than bread in the morning.
Coincidentally, today’s side dish is stir-fried sausage and vegetables, fried eggs, bean sprouts and boiled potatoes, and beef radish soup.
It’s not the bean sprout soup I was expecting, but the beef radish soup isn’t bad either.
I liked all the other side dishes, so I thought it was a good thing to come, so I received the food and settled down in the corner.
I took a spoonful of the cold soup and poured the sausage, which was coated with a ketchup-based sauce, into a bowl of white rice and a bite.
Hey, you’re a teacher for this taste.
After all, school rice is the best.
Fortunately, I wasn’t late when I went to the teachers’ room after eating.
I take a work card and go to my seat, but somehow it feels like all eyes are on me.
Is it because of yesterday?
“Good morning, Mr. Kang.”
“Yes. Good morning.”
“Good morning, Mr. Kang.”
“Good morning, Mr. Kang.”
“Yes. Good morning.”
what?
Teachers who usually don’t greet first say hello.
Of course, there is not a single Hunter, and all of them are general subject teachers.
Yesterday’s duel must have left quite an impression.
It’s a bit daunting, but… well, it’s not a bad thing
I came to my seat, tidied up lightly, and attended the faculty meeting.
Except for the fact that Mr. Chung applied for a leave of absence, there was nothing special about it.
It seems that he thought that he would not be able to carry his face even though he did not use his winner’s right.
If I had known you would leave like this, I wish I had been considerate yesterday.
After the meeting, the vice-principal called and talked to him separately.
Not only Mr. Chung, but Mr. Kim also applied for a leave of absence.
However, it is said that the vice principal turned it down, saying that he should properly explain and apply again.
After the meeting, we arrived at the swordsmanship training ground.
I’m boiling water with a pot to drink a cup of coffee, but it’s noisy outside.
There are still more than 20 minutes left until class starts, but it seems that the kids have already come up.
When I opened the door and went out, there were no other kids, but two guys, Jinsu and Minhee.
“hello.”
“I can’t say hello.”
“why?”
“Why, some ignorant guys come early and interrupt the teacher’s golden break. Can’t we go somewhere else for love?”
“Because it’s not like that!”
“that’s right. What nonsense is that? Rather, I heard you had an honor duel with teacher Jeong from the spear class yesterday?”
I remember there were no students, how did these guys know?
“How else did you know that?”
“You came up on the pitch.”
“Touta?”
“Don’t you know Together Time? A lot of teachers do this, not just students.”
hehehe, is it something like SNS?
no… Wait, a video of a duel uploaded to social media?
