Sword Emperor Reincarnated as a Sword Master Chapter 6

Sword Emperor Reincarnated as a Sword Master (6)

Number 1, whose complexion was flushed red, immediately gritted his teeth and glared at the two people as if they were going to kill them.

“… Ha, that’s it. “He was so foolish that he didn’t know how to recognize those who were supposed to serve him. This body wasn’t even worthy of being presented to him in person.”

Unlike his angry appearance, his eyes are precise. Leonard’s attitude and atmosphere made it clear that he was someone who could not be included.

In that case, staying here any longer would just be a waste of time.

Number 1 turned around without saying a word of greeting and left the room with unstoppable steps. The sound of followers waiting in front of the training room rushing after him rang out.

Only then did the two laughs finally stop.

“Ahaha, ha, ha… “It’s been a while since I laughed so hard.”

“That’s good, that’s it.”

Leonard, who used all his strength until the end and stopped speaking in accordance with the tempo of the exercise, returned the answer.

“I’ve never seen anyone deal with number 1 like you.”

“Is that so?”

“Yeah, it was fun. So, I will repay you too.”

Number 2 said while gently rubbing the corner of my eye.

“I didn’t mean to overhear you, but didn’t you say you wanted to skip basic sword training?”

“okay.”

Leonard wasn’t surprised by that.

The Cárdenas bloodline has very high overall physical abilities, and this includes sense organs as well. The hearing ability of number 2, which corresponds to a direct blood relative, would be close to the level of geocheongjutsu even without using energy.

Even if I picked up what he muttered even outside the training room, there was nothing strange about it at all.

“Why did we suddenly create a faction?”

The second time, I asked that question out of the blue.

“well.”

“lets think. I also hate doing things that are bothersome even once. No, is it any different because he wants everyone to hold him up? anyway.”

Leonard gave a simple answer.

There’s only one reason to do something you don’t want to do.

“I guess we need to form a group. Or it just appeared.”

“oh.”

Number 2, putting his palms together, agreed to those words.

“that’s right. Are you also perceptive? “I think he guessed number 3 from his intuition while watching us, and number 7 probably went with what he said because he was an idiot so it was for collateral.”

“Are we about to start training where we have to move as a team?”

“If you want to hear that, stick with me.”

Number 2 did not answer his question but smiled meaningfully.

But Leonard turned his head away without a single regret.

“done. “You don’t have to listen.”

“… … .”

Except for No. 1, who had been irritated since the first time we met, No. 2’s cheeks were swollen when he first met a boy who couldn’t get his way.

Even the instructors who had experienced all sorts of hardships had a face that made them look down on their souls and endure it.

However, Leonard, who looked like a 14-year-old boy on the outside but was an old man crazy about sword fighting on the inside, did not move at all.

“Let me help you once. “Be satisfied with that.”

It was a principle that had been followed since the era of Geomje.

As a result, returning the minimum amount of favor to the person who benefited him. It was the same reason as No. 7, who gave information about the factional strife at the restaurant six days ago.

No matter how those words sounded to Number 2, she puffed out her puffy cheeks and giggled.

“huh. “I’m looking forward to it, number 25.”

Number 2, smiling and waving, left the training room, and Leonard, who was alone again, grabbed the exercise equipment.

‘It’s finally quieter.’

That was the only impression I had after meeting the direct descendants of the two people in person.

* * *

When Leonard returned to his usual routine after a week of rest, the way people looked at him had changed a lot.

For a group of about 500 people, number 381 is a bit below average, but the fact that it rose to number 25 in less than a week was something no one expected.

If it weren’t for the instructor who watched with his eyes wide open, the area would have been crowded with children swarming like bees.

“I didn’t know your skills were that good, number 25.”

The problem was that these instructors also annoyed him,

“Your ability to control your muscles is amazing, isn’t it? “Let’s increase the weight.”

“I will support you. “Just three more from now on!”

It wasn’t just annoying, it was worth putting up with.

Since I learned all the tools I didn’t know how to use, I would be able to use them efficiently even when I came alone.

‘It’s not a waste of time to learn what you don’t know.’

His open-minded way of thinking only in martial arts was one of the reasons why the martial arts community could not distinguish him from any other martial arts or martial arts group. If he had something to learn, he would seek guidance from ronin and demons, and if he had nothing to learn, he ignored even famous people.

Leonard finished his morning training with the instructor’s support and immediately headed to the cafeteria.

“hey! Number 25!”

At that time, Number 7, who followed behind him, approached Leonard.

“I never thought it would be 25 in one week. As expected, my eyes were correct! “I heard that yesterday, even though number 1 and number 2 visited in person, they all turned me away?”

“… “Rumors spread quickly.”

“It means that the battle of wits among the factions is that fierce. “It looks like there’s a competition over who can take you.”

Leonard shook his head at those words.

“I told you. “I have no intention of clinging to anyone.”

“Did you really mean it? “I thought it was an attempt to raise the price.”

Number 7 looked him up and down with wide eyes, then shrugged his shoulders.

“Well, as long as you don’t fawn over your immediate superiors, there is no reason for us to treat you harshly.”

The two walked side by side, received their food, and naturally sat down at the same table.

Number 7 spoke unilaterally, and Leonard only gave a short reply, but the conversation continued. It’s not that there were no attempts to get between the two, but if he got even a little closer, Number 7 glared at him harshly, so he had to stop right away.

“Is number 3 your captain?”

Leonard asked a question after almost emptying the tray.

“hmm?! Uh, okay. Because he’s the only one who gets into a fight with number 1 or number 2. “I’m not very smart.”

Since this was Leonard’s first comment, Number 7 responded with a puzzled yet angry expression.

Although it was only a little, it felt like the distance had decreased.

Leonard immediately put down his spoon and said.

“What about number 4? “Didn’t you say you were a direct descendant too?”

Number 7’s face scrunched up in displeasure at that question.

“Oh, he’s a bat. They were talking about being neutral and sticking with the guy who won. “The guys who didn’t want to get caught up in factional strife and the guys who didn’t want to take risks all joined that side.”

“If I touch it first, I’ll stick to the other side? “It’s not a bad haircut.”

“He’s such a cunning guy even though he’s directly related to him!”

Leonard, thinking that it would have been meaningless if it were a demonic religion, analyzed the position taken by number 4.

At this training center, killing another child or causing serious injury is prohibited. If it couldn’t be completely dislodged, it was a structure that would only result in loss if it was touched for no reason.

‘I have a rough idea of ​​how to trick me.’

With No. 7 raving about why No. 4 should not interact with him, Leonard, who had even put the food trays in order, turned around.

I was planning to meditate until the sword training that started in an hour.

It was that moment.

Clink—, clink—, clink—.

The trainees walking around all froze and soon began moving in the same direction.

This is a signal:

The interval is slightly different from the bell that announces class time.

‘It doesn’t seem like an emergency or anything of that sort… , Is what number 2 said already starting?’

In contrast to the very nervous children, Leonard’s face was calm.

‘Then I guess I don’t have to do basic swordsmanship.’

It didn’t matter what training I received as long as it wasn’t a waste of time. Even if we had to fight as a team with an instructor or fight each other from now on, we were able to enjoy it.

Unlike number 2, who had almost figured out the characteristics, I was curious about the abilities of number 1, number 4, and other higher numbers.

Leonard’s steps naturally became lighter.

“Quiet! From now on, this instructor will disseminate the instructions!”

It was some time later.

Less than 10 minutes after the bell rang, all the children were lined up on the parade ground.

The instructor standing in front of them, a middle-aged man whose epaulet on his right shoulder was red in color, shouted in a loud voice.

“This instructor judged that this team’s trainees had mastered basic swordsmanship to a satisfactory level and decided to proceed with outdoor training!”

Outdoor training.

The children didn’t move even after hearing those words, but they couldn’t hide the feeling that the air was moving.

Leonard found a few children who were not shaken even while everyone was upset. It was not a case of composure, but rather a case of calmness and weakness, as if he had known it in advance.

‘Numbers 1 and 2 are obvious… Excluding the guy who looks like number 4, there are about three of them.’

One of them would be number 3, and the rest would either be second-in-commands in each faction or just smart guys.

There is a big difference between direct and collateral relatives who can understand training information in advance. Even in number 3, you only guessed the direction, but you have no idea how it progresses or what awaits you.

It’s all good for Leonard.

“From today on, you will live in a forest built similar to the northern winter mountains that exists within the Cardenas mansion! “Basic camping supplies will be provided, but you must do everything from securing food and drink and a place to sleep to hunting!”

The children seemed even more nervous at the words of the senior instructor.

Even children who are strong for their age and have confidence commensurate with their abilities are afraid of what they do not know.

Because I have never experienced being left alone in a difficult world, and because I have never had the experience of handling my entire life alone. Because the children were only 14 years old, the training felt even harsher.

“Rest assured! Everything you just said is true, but you are not alone! “The trainees standing next to each other, in front and behind, can all become each other’s strength!”

The senior instructor, who read the anxious atmosphere, chuckled.

“Make a group from now on! The number of people does not matter! I will also accept being a team leader regardless of the number! “Now, let’s get started!”

Then the trainees began to move.

The flow of movement was a total of four things, and it did not deviate in the slightest from what Leonard had expected.

Number 1, Number 2, Number 3, Number 4.

The children gathered around the four leaders, and the parade ground where they were lined up was empty in some places.

‘As expected, those guys were numbers 3 and 4.’

Leonard’s eyes quickly scanned the two people.

Number 4, whose identity was obvious due to his blond eyes, was a boy wearing glasses, a rare sight.

Number 3, a black-haired girl surrounded by collaterals, including Number 7.

The children were unfazed by what the instructor said earlier.

‘And five groups including the children who couldn’t decide on a side. If this is the case, is there a high possibility that I too will belong to Group 5?’

The number of people in the factions was in that order: 1st group, 2nd group, 4th group, and 3rd group.

Except for group 1, which accounted for nearly 40% of the total number of people, the rest were all similar in number.

Are there about 60 trainees who are independent and can be considered Group 5?

‘… decided.’

After thinking that far, Leonard moved his feet.

At the same time, the eyes of the higher-ranking numbers watching him lit up, and the instructors also wondered which direction the choice was towards.

and.

“Number 25!”

“yes.”

The senior instructor asked with a rare expression of surprise.

“Explain what that action means.”

Leonard dispersed into four groups of trainees and went to the outskirts of the sparsely populated parade ground.

There was no one left by his side.

Number 1, who had an intuition of what he had chosen, rolled his eyes and said, “He is a cocky bastard.” Number 2 gave a round of applause to Leonard, who again exceeded my expectations.

Number 3 made an interesting face, and Number 4 updated his evaluation by pushing up the frame of his glasses.

“It’s just as you see it, instructor.”

Leonard answered while facing the senior instructor directly.

“I will go in alone.”
