Sword Emperor Reincarnated as a Sword Master Chapter 16

Geomje reincarnated as a swordsmith (16)

Unlike when they came, the children who came out of the forest were able to ride back in the family carriage.

They were already exhausted, and they gave rewards to trainees who performed better than expected. Five or six people could ride in one carriage, so it was a unique sight to see nearly a hundred carriages gathered in one place.

After re-checking the number of people, the instructors gave a hand signal, and the wagons that were parked in front began to leave one by one.

Of course Leonard was on the first carriage,

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

For some reason, numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 were riding together.

The atmosphere inside the carriage was extremely awkward.

Number 1 with both eyes closed and arms crossed, number 2 glaring at him from the side, number 3 glaring at everyone but Leonard, and number 4 smiling shyly.

“so.”

Leonard, unable to bear it any longer, opened his mouth.

“Why are you all gathered here?”

The carriages were not loaded in any particular numerical order, and everyone came on their own, except for Leonard.

I don’t know about number 3, who worked together as part of group 6, but I don’t know what the other three were thinking.

Number 2, who reacted to those words before anyone else, spoke.

“Because today’s protagonist is you?”

Number 4 also nodded with an expression of sympathy.

“A person who went from number 381 to number 1 in less than a month is bound to be interesting, right?”

“Our leader is not something you talk about!”

Number 3, who lit a double wick, shouted at the words of the two people.

“He’s a much bigger guy than all of you losers!”

Numbers 2 and 4 blinked at the unexpected words.

The number 3 they remember was a girl who was always picky and growled like an animal whenever she saw them.

But number 3 is not enough to protect someone else, especially a man, and even praises him?

“It’s a little different from the number 3 I knew. Did anything good happen in the forest?”

“what?”

Number 3’s face turned bright red as he thought about what he meant for a moment.

“That can’t be possible! “You idiot!”

The children who were bickering with the person in front of them soon turned their eyes to Number 1, who was silent.

Of these, he was the most difficult person to understand.

Wasn’t he the embodiment of self-esteem, who had no doubt that he was the strongest and the best?

“… Aren’t they all chaffs who lost to me except number 25? “It’s not worth paying attention to.”

Number 1 glanced at the three people with a laughable expression and responded with a sneer.

At those words, numbers 2, 3, and 4 exploded all at once.

“What does this talented person say!”

“The one who laughs last is the winner! “You don’t even know that?!”

“I surrendered to number 25. No matter how many times I look back on the memory of losing to you, nothing comes to mind?”

Number 2 is waving the collar of Number 1, Number 3 is yelling so hard that it makes you drool, and Number 4 is barely maintaining a respectful tone.

These were things that no one would normally show.

Children who had grown up prematurely because of their outstanding talent were behaving appropriately for their age. It also happened because they all unconsciously stopped pretending to be strong in front of one boy, Leonard.

‘It’s noisy. ‘I can’t kick them all out.’

Of course, Leonard had no idea why these kids were showing such silly jokes in his carriage.

I used up a lot of energy to teach the wolf how to teach the wolf, but the noise from the children was enough to give me a headache.

Fortunately, the mess calmed down quickly.

“It’s good to be excited because training is over, but if you keep talking like you are now, you’ll have to get off the carriage and walk.”

“”””sorry.””””

When Bruno stuck his head out of the carriage window and said that, the children pursed their lips without any hesitation.

Leonard closed his eyes, enjoying the peace he had finally regained.

It was easy to recover the mental energy lost from the previous task.

I didn’t suffer any internal injuries, and I was able to pull it off in one go without overdoing it.

‘In a world where natural energy is this abundant, I might be able to become a mid-level spirit creature in just a few years.’

Leonard, who was thinking about the guy, opened his mouth.

“no. 1.”

Everyone who had been silent since Bruno’s scolding was shocked.

Among them, the person who was most surprised was number 1, who had no idea that number 25 would call him.

Number 1 answered after several pauses.

“… “What is it?”

“I’m curious about the training process that will begin next. Do you know anything?”

Not only Number 1 but also Number 2 and Number 4’s eyes widened at Leonard’s bold question.

Because I knew what those words meant.

“Of course. “I guess you heard it too.”

Only Number 3 listened with a puzzled look on his face.

“Starting tomorrow, we will receive training resources based on our grades at this training center and begin the process of becoming true descendants of Cardenas.”

At that moment, Number 2 intervened, interrupting Number 1’s explanation.

“I also need to explain the details of the , right number 1? You didn’t leave it out on purpose, right? huh?”

“Be quiet, number two. “I was planning on doing it from now on.”

Leonard’s eyes narrowed upon hearing the unfamiliar word.

Blood ceremony?

The explanation that would solve the question began immediately.

“It is said that we, Cardenas, have organs dormant in our bloodline that are different from those of ordinary people. “It is said that if you awaken and form it with a special consciousness, you can see several or even tens of times the growth rate.”

“energy… “No, you mean Mana?”

“Yes.”

Number 1 briefly agreed.

“The reason why the children of Cardenas do not practice mana from an early age is to wait until they are at an age when they can handle the ritual and form an unknown organ first.”

Leonard carefully created the image and scanned his entire body, but he could not find any parts that could be called ‘organs’.

Apparently, observation itself was impossible without going through the .

I wondered if it was some kind of magic or evil art, but I had never seen anyone with such power until now. This may not be a phenomenon that can be understood through common sense in martial arts.

‘I guess I’ll have to experience it somehow.’

While Leonard was thinking this, he heard three voices that solved his doubts for the first time in several years.

“aha! “Is that why you were not allowed to eat spirit nuts or spirit stones before entering the training center?”

“They say that the mana accumulated before performing the can become an obstacle in subsequent training. “It’s just something she heard, but if it’s not true, there’s no reason to not be able to build up mana.”

“I wondered why they piled up training resources so much that only the kids couldn’t eat them. “There was a reason for everything.”

An inexplicable sense of discomfort passes through my mind.

If you look back at what number 1 said and what number 3 said, there is nothing particularly strange. So why does Leonard and ‘Yeon Moo-hyuk’ feel that something is a little strange?

Yeongcho? Spiritual stone? Eat training resources?

What do those words have to do with laying the foundation of Naegongsimbeop?

“no. 1.”

“What.”

“In general, what should I do to build up mana in my body?”

At the same time, the eyes of four people looked at Leonard.

The emotion contained in that gaze was surprise.

It seemed as if they didn’t know why they were asking such common sense, which was so obvious.

Number 2, who opened his mouth before Number 1, spoke.

“Before forming a mana-hole, it’s normal to consume elixirs or fruit fruits that are heavily imbued with mana, right? “It is difficult to handle spirit stones because of their density.”

“It is said that once a mana hole is created, its volume increases slightly every time it is emptied and refilled.”

Leonard waited for more words to come out after the fourth explanation, but there was nothing after that.

That was it.

In this world, there was no way to gather mana other than consuming it from outside and super recovery. The spirit of was shaken by the statement that even basic Tonap laws, let alone Naegongsim laws, did not exist.

‘Can that happen? how?’

It was very difficult to mentally shake up the master of Harmony Sutra. This was the reason why even in the Salsu faction, the request fee rose to ridiculous levels beyond the peak level, or the request itself was rejected.

Because they were monsters that could sense and react to surprise attacks from all directions even while they were sleeping.

Just by circulating the internal energy, you can basically get a chance to attack the poisonous poison, and if you are using a self-defense device, even a bullet will not work. When you move into the realm of strong energy, you become close to invincibility in both attack and defense.

‘… It was dangerous. ‘There was almost a coin attack.’

However, after hearing what the children had just said, Leonard was shocked as if he had been stabbed in the heart.

If I had been stabbed through that gap, I would have been killed by an assassin a few levels lower.

There is no inner public mind law?

To the martial people, this was no different from saying that a building was built without foundation stones and pillars.

‘No, maybe my perspective was wrong from the beginning.’

Leonard barely regained his composure and thought about what was different between the martial arts world and this world.

and.

‘Ha, was I stupid!’

He soon realized.

The kids were right.

In this world, the method of accumulating energy and mana could never be Neigongsimbeop.

‘Nature’s energy is so numerous and strong that it is impossible to even bring down energy unless you are an expert who has reached the state of harmony.’

When Leonard found memories of his past life, his heart reached the realm of Harmony Sutra.

Sangsangjeon (上丹田).

A state where you go beyond your body and energy and interfere with the world with your mental power.

Once you reach that level, you can ignore and control the amount and density of natural energy. So he didn’t feel any difficulty when he drew in natural energy or breathed it into the wolf’s body.

‘But what if you are just starting out in Naegong?’

It is impossible to attract natural energy into the body.

Even a person who was famous for his body accumulating energy just by breathing, a body with empty spirit, was like an insatiable waste if he were born into this world.

Moreover, even if it was possible to attract mana, it was a problem.

Unlike in the central plains, the natural energy in this world was so powerful that it was sure to be like pouring river water into a small, shallow rice field ridge.

If you get out of control even a little bit, that energy will rip your eight vital organs and shatter your body from the inside out.

‘It was dangerous to give to a wolf. Once that mental method is completed, it automatically circulates, so there is no problem with it, but if I fail—.’

Leonard shook those terrible thoughts out of his head and considered the common sense he had now learned.

If this is truly a world where the Negongsim method does not exist, wouldn’t someone who can use it on their own start at an overwhelming advantage over the people here?

Even without consuming training resources, you will be able to absorb energy, build up your strength, and advance to the next level.

Wow.

Leonard thought about that and clenched his fists.

It was to stop the thoughts that flow only optimistically.

‘It is true that I have an advantage. However, just looking at this family, there are quite a few warriors who have reached a high level without even knowing the inner gongsimbeop. It is highly likely that they developed their own new system of martial arts.’

It was a stroke of luck to be born into the Cárdenas lineage.

The knowledge and experience you can learn here will be so excellent and valuable that it cannot be compared to what you can gain outside.

The same goes for or something else.

It is a secret that outsiders can never access.

Sigh.

At that time, the carriages returning to the mansion all stopped and the sound of horses neighing was heard.

“You’re back. “Today may be the last day.”

At what number 1 said, number 2 frowned and said.

“Ha, starting tomorrow it will be more difficult and bothersome.”

“I’m looking forward to seeing what is!”

“You’ll find out tomorrow. Thank you all for your hard work.”

Unlike her, Number 3 was excited about being able to become stronger, and Number 4 left a polite greeting as always.

Then the four of them looked back at Leonard as if they had planned it in advance.

“My name is William, number 25. “Remember.”

Number 1 said that and jumped out of the carriage.

“Anyway, that talented guy is showing off to the end. I’m Belita. “You can call me Betty from now on.”

“This is Dylan. “I don’t have any nicknames or nicknames.”

Numbers 2 and 4 also told Leonard the name.

Because I knew that starting tomorrow, the trainees would be called by their names rather than their numbers, I was in a hurry to make a clear statement.

Number 3, who was one step behind them, also shouted to them to go back.

“I’m Heather! Next time, I’ll help you lead the team!”

Leonard smiled at the awkward approach, then nodded once in response.

Passing by and then being tied together like this must also be fate.

“Leonard, that’s my name.”

Yeon Moo-hyuk is dead.

It was Leonard who lived in this world, and his previous experience and strength were just the wind pushing his back. If you rely too much on it, you could end up in a big mess like this time.

As always, without looking back.

Leonard got off the carriage and walked to his room, which would be his last for today.

‘I’m looking forward to tomorrow.’

That was the last night in training camp.
