Genius Gamer, Reincarnated into a Heroic Family Episode 28
Vision of the Black Star (3)
Black Horse 2nd Raw Stone Training Squadron.
Delacroix Hall.
All the inspectors here are no longer called trainees.
Those who are not of the family are called ‘apprentices’, and the Kaladan bloodline is officially granted the title of ‘Semi-Folden’.
Each of them was at least 3 to 4 stars, and if they went out, they were strong enough to hold a decent official position as a low-ranking knight.
“Harang Paul Caladan. Top graduate of the 3rd Black Horse Gemstone Training Squadron. Is that correct?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
However, just one person.
A young boy who seemed like he couldn’t do it entered.
The condition for becoming a junior knight was to reach 3 stars, which was also the minimum requirement to learn the swordsmanship of the Kaladan family at Delark Hall.
You will be appointed as a 3-star junior knight, and you will be given the right to learn the swordsmanship of Kaladan by swearing loyalty to Kaladan forever… … .
“They said a two-star young master came in this year. Is that true?”
“Are you the young master? Your physique is perfect… … .”
“You’re only ten now?”
“That’s ridiculous. How low has the training camp standard gotten?”
“Well… I heard that the average level has actually improved since Instructor Lauren came in. I heard that this year’s ranking duels were incredible.”
“But why? Didn’t the Kaladan bloodline have to be ranked first to graduate from the training center?”
“A two-star inspector beat all three-star inspectors and became first place?”
“Surely Your Majesty would take in an adopted child and then discriminate against him… … .”
“Watch your mouth. His Majesty makes no exceptions under any circumstances.”
The junior knights of Delark Hall had a much freer atmosphere than the trainees at the training academy.
The knights’ gaze turned to the ten new recruits.
Unlike the nine graduates who were standing stiffly with stiff expressions, Harang stared at the article he was reading in front of him for a long time with a look of discontent.
“Is that written in a foreign language?”
How many times do I have to read this?
“Ahem, no. I just need to make sure… … .”
The knight had to read the certificate several times because Harang’s entrance was unbelievable. However, it is impossible for the Kaladan clan to have received a false certificate, right?
“Whew, good. Third Army disciples and Semi Folden, please come forward.”
The knight, who had been checking the certificates for a long time, put Harang’s certificate aside and went up to the stage, and the ten trainees walked confidently between the students and stood at the front.
“From now on, we will begin the inauguration ceremony for the 3rd Army disciples and Semi Foldun.”
Those who are not of the Kaladan bloodline are given the title of ‘Third Army Apprentice’, which is also a promotion system.
Third-class students learn the second and third styles of the Kaladan swordsmanship, second-class students learn the third and fourth styles, and first-class students learn the fifth style.
In addition, the Kaladan bloodline can learn swordsmanship beyond the 6th level, in addition to the five arts and seasons, so if they had a teacher within their family, they could learn their vision.
For example, in Harang’s case, after completing all the training courses… … it also meant that he could receive visions from Duke Kal-El Pol Caladan, who could be called his ‘master’.
The ultimate goal is to train for years to learn all the basic techniques, prove one’s skills, and become a ‘Folden Knight’ or ‘Moon Hagi Knight’, thus completing all the training courses and being able to proudly wield one’s sword against the world.
You might ask, why is the training process so difficult and complicated? The answer is simple.
‘Because it’s Caladan.’
The title of the world’s strongest swordsman was not given for free.
Even after the death of the heroic Kaladan, the Kaladan family continued to develop and advance in order to maintain its legacy.
The result is this.
The number of scholars who proudly bore the mark of the main family was small, with less than 20 coming out each year, but they boasted such powerful influence that they could make a name for themselves anywhere in the world.
Rather, it would be shameful if I didn’t train at this level of intensity.
‘The eyes here are no joke either.’
A tingling sensation shoots out here and there.
The students consider Harang’s existence as irregular.
But this place is different from the training camp, so it is impossible to harass someone under the pretext of a duel.
The training center had little distinction between blood relatives and trainees, but from here on out, the treatment of the Kaladan blood relatives changed.
“… … The following ten trainees are hereby notified that they have been appointed as the 3rd Army Semi-Folden and disciples of the 1st Knights’ Company Delark. Please swear that you will stake your lives on the sword of Kaladan with honor.”
Chuck! The oath was completed when ten boys raised their swords vertically in front of their chests and swore an oath.
I thought that was the end of it.
“First-team Semi Folden, Ridan Paul Caladan. I object to the appointment.”
… … As expected, it wasn’t going to be easy.
The instructor nodded after hearing Ridan’s words. He was acknowledging that it could be so.
“Speak.”
“Being officially recognized as a Semi-Folden means being recognized as a knight.”
Ridan points with his finger and speaks without even looking at Harang.
“But look at him. He is a young child who has not even learned how to properly hold a sword, let alone be a knight. This is an act that tarnishes the long history and tradition of Baekya Castle. He is only a 2-star, but he thinks he must prove that he is worthy of being a true Semi-Folden.”
Behind Ridan, there were several children with silver eyes standing, and they were also glaring at Harang, as if they were very unhappy with his presence.
They were all descendants of Kaladan, blood relatives who ascended to become Semi-Folden.
“Well, I guess the opinions of the parties involved or the reasonable ones are important. Semi Folden Harang. Will you prove your qualifications according to their opinions?”
Harang thought about it for a moment.
Even if you call it proof, it’s obvious. Isn’t it just a request for a duel anyway?
‘Can you win?’
Although it was the first time I saw them today, I simulated them in my head by understanding their aura, the sense of pressure they gave off, and even the flow of mana through their silver hearts, and the results showed that the odds of winning were extremely slim.
‘Ridan Paul Caladan… … .’
He is 9 years older than Harang and has probably reached 3rd star by now, having reached 4th star a few years ago.

It’s a different level from Kyle, who had just reached 3 stars and couldn’t even handle the sword properly.
Not only does he freely use the Kaladan sword technique, but if he had been trained for several years in Baekya Castle, it is estimated that he can use at least the 4-second technique.
It would be right to say that Ridan was already at the graduate level here.
‘Does it make sense for a high school student to pick a fight with an elementary school student?’
It is impossible to predict victory against the four-star powerhouse we met for the first time today.
‘Using verbs may increase your odds of winning, but… … .’
Is it really okay to use verbs?
The immediate duel is not the issue.
Even now, his brothers seem to be openly keeping him in check, so how much worse will it get when it becomes known that he has a dragon tongue?
‘This is going to be a total mess.’
At that moment, Harang was organizing her thoughts and thinking about her answer.
“The rookie welcoming ceremony from the first day is a bit too much, isn’t it? 1st Army Semi Folden Ridan. What kind of proof do you want from the 3rd Army?”
“… … !!”
At that moment, the disciples and Semi Folden were all startled by the voice coming from behind the stage and bowed.
Harangdo also paid tribute and looked at the newly appeared knight.
He was a middle-aged man with a dignified image and silver-white eyes, and the emblem of his family and his hometown was engraved on his chest.
Darian Kaladan. A seven-star swordsman and the Royal Guard General of the Black Knights.
“Surely, the 1st Army didn’t try to challenge the 3rd Army to a duel? No matter how honorable a duel is for a knight to prove his skills, it only applies when the level of education is the same. Semi-Folden Ridan. As a pureblooded Kaladan, you should know that it is shameful.”
Kuk… … !
At Darian’s words, Ridan bit his lip and clenched his fist.
“There are so many faces that look full of complaints.”
Darian, who was looking around at all the Kaladan bloodlines, said with a very unpleasant expression.
“Don’t worry. Semi Folden Harang will soon have to prove his skills.”
After looking at his relatives for a moment, he turned his gaze to Harang and met her eyes.
“Semi Folden Harang. You will be participating in the Honorary Sword Tournament held in half a year as a member of the first team.”
‘Eh?’
The ones who were shocked by those words were not Harang herself, but the Kaladan clan, including Ridan, who had been picking a fight with her up until now.
“Su, Guardian General! He has just been granted his qualifications as a knight. How can you send him to the Honorary Swordsmanship Tournament as a first-class soldier?”
“This is an absurd action!”
What could it be? Harang didn’t quite understand the situation. Was he jealous and angry about the special privilege that the rookie had already received to become a first-team member?
Or do you genuinely think it is too much and are trying to stop it?
‘Or maybe both are the same.’
Jealousy was the main factor, but some collateral blood relatives showed slight concerns.
It is absurd for a 10-year-old boy to be a first-team member of the Honorary Swordsmanship Team.
“… … Guardian General. That is impossible.
The backlash was not limited to Semi-Folden, but also exploded among the knights who had come as instructors.
It was a groundbreaking thing to send a 10-year-old prosecutor, who was so young that he was almost too young, to compete as a ‘semi-folder’, let alone the first team?
“This is not it, Guardian General!”
“I’m sure my family won’t tolerate this!”
Darian stroked his beard at the knights’ protest.
As the right-hand man of the Grand Admiral who commands the Black Knights, Guardian General Darian had influence over all internal affairs within the White Night Castle, and the candidates for the Honorary Swordsmanship League’s Kaladan were also determined based on his abilities.
The Honorary Swordsmanship Association is aimed at children, but even among them, they are divided into weight classes and compete against each other.
Young inspectors who have just turned 10 and achieved 1st or 2nd star are in Group 3.
The second group consists of those who have reached 2nd or 3rd star in their mid to late teens and have learned the swordsmanship of each family to some extent to become the face of the family.
Lastly, the first team was made up of geniuses who were in their late teens and at the end of their 3rd star or at the beginning of their 4th star, and they were practically the real highlight of the Honorary Swordsmanship Club.
The last Honorary Swordsmanship Tournament three years ago featured the appearance of an unprecedented genius girl, Cho-Rien, from the Emblitz Grand Duke family, and the 3rd Army Group received the spotlight as a matter of course, but usually, the 1st Army Group receives all the attention from the world.
Therefore, it was natural for each family to select and select first-team players and send out the most outstanding ones.
however.
“How can you send a young Kaladan, who is only 10 years old, to be a first-class duelist in the Honorary Swordsmanship Association?!”
When even the adjutant objected, the guardian general, who had been listening silently with his eyes closed, slowly looked around the group.
Of course, I can understand why they are opposed to it.
The knights who fear that the status of Kaladan will be ruined by involving a child, and the disciples of the first corps who do not want to hand over the position that could have been theirs to the young Kaladan.
But what can we do?
‘… … It is the Lord’s command.’
I didn’t want to make such a ridiculous decision just because I was Darian.
‘What on earth are you thinking?’
This is the decision made by the Duke of Kaladan, a 10-star swordsman who has reached the end of the sky.
It is impossible for a mere guardian general of the 1st Black Knights to change his mind.
“It has been decided by the higher-ups, so make sure to understand it.”
Everyone fell silent at those words.
The ‘higher-ups’ of Kaladan were a powerful group that could control the world.
It was not something that Semi Folden and his disciples could dare to say anything about. The same was true for the knights of the Black Knights, so they all had no choice but to keep their mouths shut.
‘Tch, why would you do something like that to a guy like that… … .’
Ridan looked at Harang with an annoyed expression.
I don’t like that pretty face with her black hair tied up in a ponytail and that expression of boredom that she’s been making since a while ago. I was planning to roughly crush her face while proving my skills.
“Master Ridan, please calm down.”
“If you challenge a blood relative who is less than half your age to a duel, you may be disciplined by your family for breaking the code of Kaladan.”
“That’s better. It’s obvious that he’ll be defeated and lose everything at the Honorary Swordsmanship Tournament, but wouldn’t it be better for us to just wait and prove it to everyone?”
“I’m not qualified.”
“Oh, right. That’s right.”
As they gathered together and whispered to each other to calm Ridan’s anger, Darian opened his lips.
“And… … … Semi-fold Harang.”
With a complex and subtle expression, he spewed out a remark that shocked everyone there.
“The lord has been waiting until the inauguration ceremony is over. Go to the audience room immediately.”
Everyone looked at Harang with their eyes and mouths wide open.
