chapter 25
Tina Maple
Green haired escort.
Her name is Tina Maple.
He had a surname, but was not a noble.
Maple’s surname is a tribal name, and she is not a human, but a mixed race of Reeves, a forest fairy, and a human.
And Leon had watched her from a distance before returning.
When Leon was in full swing, she also performed brilliantly as the commander of the knights representing the Farostel magic family.
At that time, her level was 9 stars, but now she is still in the 7 star level.
Perhaps according to the past history, she will achieve radical growth within the next six years, moving from a member of a Knights Templar to a leader who leads a Knights Templar.
But it wasn’t the fact that she was going to grow radically in the future, it was the fact that she was half Reeves.
The Forest Fairy Reeves was a very unusual race.
Although they apparently looked like humans on the outside, they had both animal and plant characteristics.
Their tears and blood were sweet, and their life span was as long as a tree, reaching a thousand years.
Leon expected that the Reeves would have a long lifespan because their metabolism was very slow.
So they love peace.
Once injured, they cannot easily recover, so their genes have evolved to avoid fighting for a more successful survival strategy.
Because of this, Reeves hid in the forest and lived an exclusive life away from the world.
The expression of the forest fairy was also a title derived from their attitude.
However, the fact that wounds are not easily healed was a story only applicable to ordinary Reeves.
When Reeves awaken the Auror, they gain overwhelming metabolic ability.Read at NovelNext.com
Just like a plant that performs photosynthesis, it is possible to produce a large amount of ATP, bio-energy, by creating magical light with properties similar to the sun with Auror even by drinking only the morning dew. .
It seemed that the reason why this was possible was that the blessing of the sun god resided in Reeves’ aura.
If Leon were to learn martial arts, he wanted to learn Reeves’ martial arts.
But for now, the first thing to do is to attack the dungeon.
Since then, Leon’s fighting style has changed.
Until now, if the fighting style had prioritized safety, from then on, Leon started fighting in a daring way that never retreated.
If you can utilize the transcendent reaction speed of hatching thunderbolt and the overwhelming speed of levitation in battle, you can become stronger than you are now.
However, in order to achieve that, it was necessary to acquire enough knowledge to react to the enemy’s attack on an unconscious level.
It is also true that the hatching thunderbolt responds to external stimuli at the speed of lightning just like thunder follows when lightning strikes, so there is no time to think for itself and decide what to do.
In order to become more accustomed to battle, it was necessary to push himself.
As Leon, who was still fast, decided to jump into the arms of the demons, the tempo of the battle accelerated once again.
Such Leon’s appearance is truly the incarnation of lightning.
At the blow of Sumatra that had the power to destroy even the walls, Leon jumped into the man’s arms and punched him.
At that moment, you can feel the magical reaction right away.
Leon’s body reacted spontaneously and twisted his upper body, and the Auror brushed past Leon’s chest.
In response, Leon’s magic shield and daily protector all exploded, and Leon’s skin, strengthened with stone skin, cracked.
One of the Sumatra who rushed to Leon came in and stabbed Leon with an auror on the horn that grew on the back of his hand.
At the sight, the complexions of the bodyguards who followed Leon late became pale and tired, but Leon’s eyes were rather cold.
Lightly swinging his left hand to dislodge the Auror’s horn,
Quarreung!
Thunder broke out and Sumatra’s aura was broken.
Not only that, but the expansion of the air caused by the thunder made Sumatra’s arms hunched over.
At that moment, sharing his gaze with Sumatra, who was stained with astonishment, Leon grabbed his right hand and extended his fist toward the man’s chest.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
A thunderbolt that emanated from that fist pierced through the space like Leon’s limbs and pierced his chest.
Leon looked at the heart of Sumatra, which had been charred into the chest with a large hole in it, and estimated the remaining magical power.
‘It’s definitely not a magic that can be used for a long time.’
Apart from the hatching thunderbolt, Leon had no choice but to consume a huge amount of mana whenever lightning was poured out of his body.
Although Leon became a superconductor, it was Leon’s magical power that created the current flowing through his body.
Each time it was consumed, it had to be refilled with electrons so as not to lose the properties of the superconductor, so the consumption of magical power had to be extreme.
Soon after, Leon created a new magic on the spot.
Put your hands together and let an ultra-high voltage current flow between them and remove them little by little.
Supporting!
What was created in between was arc discharge.
A phenomenon in which an ultra-high voltage current causes a chain breakdown of insulation in the atmosphere and releases hot electrons into the air.
However, at this time, Leon’s mana consumption was extremely small.
They were recharging electrons in the form of absorbing electrons emitted by one hand with the other.
Leon processed the flow of arc discharge in the form of a sword.
“Arc Blade.”
To put it simply, it only forms a blade made of electrons, but the arc heat generated at this time is at least 5,000℃.
The melting point of steel is about 1,500℃, so it was like a blade made of super high heat that would melt even a steel sword in an instant.
Feeling threatened by Leon’s blade, the Sumatras covered the horns that sprouted from the back of their hands to fight against Leon.
The horns that sprouted all over their bodies were keratin that had magically mutated, that is, keratin, a weapon and armor that boasted strength that was harder than steel.

Jiying——!
Even the arc heat generated by the arc discharge could not be tolerated, so it was cut off at once.
Leon cut off the horns with that blow, and then cut off Sumatra’s limbs with the sword he swung.
Kuo!
Sumatra, whose thick arm was blown off by the sword attack, struggled in pain and roared, but nevertheless, his people were more excited and just rushed towards Leon.
As if slicing butter with a hot butter knife, Leon cut out the heart of Sumatra struggling with pain and swung his arc blade as he rushed towards the Sumatras that were constantly rushing at them.
What springs up from him is bright red blood.
With that single movement, Sumatra’s neck flew off, and blood splattered everywhere.
Seeing this, Leon smiled satisfied.
‘It’s definitely saving mana.’
Intoxicated by that extreme magical efficiency, Leon flew madly toward Sumatra.
While their gigantic size was the strength of their strength, Leon’s small body had the advantage of being able to move freely between them.
As it was, it flew down, avoiding their fists, slashing the armpits, cutting the crotch, nape of the neck, arms and legs without covering them.
At that speed, the Sumatran could hardly come to their senses, and in the end, they had no choice but to be slaughtered without being able to attack properly because their movements were limited by their large size.
“Woo…”
And around Leon, who was breathing heavily, Sumatra’s corpse was piled up like a mountain.
Leon felt his magical power and mental power run out at that moment, and released Levitation and Incubation Thunder.
Looking at the scene, the guards couldn’t help but feel suspicious.
“Did the master really need an escort?”
Leon’s inaction was overwhelming enough to raise such a question.
I can’t believe I’m only 10 years old now.
“I will restore my magic from now on. In the meantime, I’ll leave it up to you to deal with the monsters approaching.”
Then Leon sat down on the floor, crossed his legs, closed his eyes, and started meditating.
Even though they felt a sense of absurdity and loss, the guards had to be vigilant about their surroundings and protect Leon.
Fortunately, their skills reached the highest level among the so-called knights, and they were able to deal with the Sumatras flocking to them with the smell of blood.
However, the process was never easy, and their armor had no choice but to be dented here and there.
Even though he strengthened the strength of his armor with Auror, he could not stand the might of Sumatra.
As they went through that, the guards could not help but be surprised to look at Leon anew.
Leon, who had been meditating peacefully as if sitting down to sleep, was soon able to recover his magical power and started running again.
And Leon was soon able to reach the space where the dungeon core was enshrined, the so-called core room or boss room.
Considering the fact that in a C-grade dungeon, even if 8 C-grade attackers cooperate to attack it, it can easily pass 6 hours. .
And Leon opened the door of the boss room without hesitation and entered.
The identity of the boss monster guarding it is King Sumatra.
It was a monster whose circumference was larger than that of ordinary Sumatra, and had a shape as if its whole body was made of a mace due to the denser horns.
Obviously, the appearance was meant to stimulate a sense of fear, but Leon simply consumed all of his remaining magical power to deliver the greatest blow.
“Halo Blast!”
He resisted Leon’s attack with the shield he created by raising the Auror, but
Cuoo!
Leon’s magical resonance, which has the same principle as Dragon Breath, and the torrent of electrons pouring out from Leon pierced the Auror’s shield as it was.
Leon, who had been depleted of his magical powers again, took a deep breath, but that was not the point.
“To subdue King Sumatra, the symbol of fear, so easily…”
The escorts who followed to protect Leon were thoroughbreds in this dungeon.
Even if the three of them joined forces to work together, could they have subjugated King Sumatra so easily?
They shook their heads inwardly.
Leon, who had been picking his breath for a while, immediately gave orders to the guards.
“Recover the by-products of the monsters that you have been grooming on your way here. The destruction of the dungeon core will be held after that.”
“Yep!”
At Leon’s command, the attitude of the guards had clearly changed.
Leon wasn’t just an ordinary master who enjoyed the benefits of being born into a good-blooded family by just being lucky.
Rather, the bastard has been confined to an attic due to his birth.
But nevertheless, Leon proved his genius to the world and went beyond the limits of his birth, and he was a man worthy of respect, who knew how to work hard without being complacent with his genius.
In particular, the Knights of Cheol-Eung, who worked hard as a commoner to get to this position, had no choice but to feel sympathy for Leon’s position.
In addition, the fact that Leon’s age was rather young had no choice but to be an advantage.
If you already have this level of skill at such a young age, the possibility of sleeping in it is unimaginable.
Being able to serve Leon like that right next to him was an honor as a knight.
The escorts were able to exit the dungeon and return to the villa by filling the porter’s bag they had prepared before finding the dungeon full of Sumatran leather and horns.
“···welcome. young master.”
The old butler, Aylan Bastia, who greeted Leon like that, tried not to show it outwardly, but he was very surprised to see Leon covered in blood and the by-products of the monsters that the guards had carried like a mountain.
“…what happened?”
In the end, Leon shrugged at Aylan’s question, unable to hold back his doubts.
“I’ve been attacking dungeons for a while as training.”
And when the guards put down their bags with a thud, Aylan’s expression became even harder when he looked at the contents.
It was because he knew that the owner of the by-product was Sumatra, a class C monster.
Leon obviously said it was training, so he didn’t entrust the hunt to the escorts, and at the young age of 10, he had already reached the level of being able to hunt Sumatra?
While Aylan was arranging his complicated feelings, Isaac, the leader of the Iron Knights, also appeared after him.
“What is this?”
Rather than the fact that Leon hunted the C-class monster Sumatra, it seemed like he was chasing the guards who did not break up Leon who wanted to attack the dungeon.
“Don’t push them. Captain Isaac. It is my responsibility to persuade them into my work.”
At Leon’s words, the three escorts lit up their eyes as if moved by Leon’s words that strengthened them.
In the first place, the reason they were scolded was because of Leon, but it looked like he didn’t care anymore.
Isaac, the general manager, knew the position of such escorts better than anyone else, so he had no choice but to answer with a sigh.
“All right. young master. But if something like this happens again in the future, we will not be able to avoid being held accountable.”
Leon nodded his head at the sight of Captain Isaac like that and said afterward.
“And from tomorrow onwards, we are going to practice swordsmanship together with honing magic. Can you give me a swordsmanship teacher?”
At Leon’s words, Director Isaac tilted his head, but he shook his head as there was no problem.
“All right. Then, starting tomorrow, I will teach you swordsmanship.”
“no.”
Captain Isaac said that he would teach swordsmanship himself because he was the most talented in the Knights of Repentance, but Leon flatly refused it.
“I will use Tina as my swordsmanship teacher.”
What surprised Leon the most was Tina herself.
That’s probably because Tina already knew Leon’s skills well.
The magic that Leon developed to conserve his magical power, the Arc Blade, looked like a sword of great power from the point of view of the knight who was training the sword.
What on earth is he going to teach Leon like that?
But regardless of her will, the story revolves around Leon and General Isaac.
In order to understand Leon’s intentions, Director Isaac, who had been quiet for a while and organized his thoughts, had no choice but to let out a frustrated sigh as he knew nothing in the end.
“All right. young master. Tina Maple, starting today, you will perform your duties as Master Leon’s swordsmanship teacher. So that I can serve you closely in the future.”
“···insect!”
Tina still couldn’t figure out what was going on with her bewildered expression on her face, but in the end she had no choice but to obey.
