The Only Swordsman of the Magic Academy

16 – Really Don’t Know

*

[The engraving of ??? Begins.]

[The ego is awakening with your blood.]

Engraving is what breathes life into growth-type artifacts. The sword that drank my blood was using it as its material to realize its self.

The growth-type artifacts that have awakened their ego can travel around in human form, not just as tools, but whether they are male or female is determined now.

‘Honestly, this doesn’t matter.’

It has different abilities when transformed into a humanoid, but gender doesn’t affect those abilities. Of course, I’m a man too, so I like the female version better, but what’s more important than that is the characteristics of the sword.

In the future, as the artifact grows, all the attributes you will get are related to you, but the first attribute to awaken is because there is a chance that something irrelevant to you will appear.

I closed my eyes and prayed, since if I had an effect related to magic, I would lose one of the attribute slots.

‘Please, sword-related attributes… If not, physical-related…’

There was a time when a growth artifact obtained from a game showed a trait such as a 1.5X increase in strength for 1 minute.

As the burst of light faded and the shape of the sword was revealed, a voice came into my head.

– The owner..?

A woman’s voice sounds like a whisper, but of course it must be the voice of the ego connected to me. Is there anyone other than Eden who would call me master in the first place?

First, I checked the information by placing my hand on the handle.

[Eden (1%): A masterpiece and Ego Sword made by Vulkan, the best artisan of Pangenia, by burning the craftsman’s soul to the limit for a true knight. There are a total of 5 stages of growth. It belongs to Hajun Choi.

Stats▽

Strength +0.5, Sense +0.5, Stamina +0.5

Shin Gum Il ▽

The sword does not break until the heart is broken.

Yukchamgoldan(肉斬骨斷)▽

Ignore 50% of the defense when fighting someone who has damaged you within 10 minutes.

“Nice!”

I succeeded in gacha. I thought anything other than magic-related effects were good, but an ability that was helpful in overall combat came out.

Ignoring 50% of the defense literally means ignoring 50% of the entire defense, but it includes the defense summoned by the opponent, the strength of the armor, and the protection of the skin and bones.

It is said that no matter how hard a monster is, my sword can only show half its hardness.

Instead, there is a penalty to be hurt by the opponent, but considering the infinite power and the stamina stat that will increase in the future, there will be an angle to start with about one hit.

There was no cooldown, so after the time passed, I just had to get hit and fight.

“What kind of ability did you get so excited about?”

Vulkan looked at me with a surprised expression, probably because of the sudden shout.

“If I get hit by an opponent, I can ignore half of the opponent’s defense. I was wondering what to do if I get an ability I can’t use at all…”

I’m really glad.

“I’m sure you’ve got abilities that will be of great help. Congratulations.”

“It’s all thanks to Vulkan. What?”

Because it’s like this, I’m curious about his abilities when he’s in human form.

“Do you want to change into a humanoid?”

-Yes.

The sword in front of me shone again and changed into a human form this time. A girl with black hair like me, golden eyes, and a face similar to mine when I was younger.

Honestly, she’s my little sister, so I can trust her even if I introduce her. In the future, whenever the sword grows, the child will also grow, but if every growth goes up by 2 years, it will eventually become a 20-year-old.

If you succeed in growing up before graduation, you might look like my older sister.

“Wait a minute.”

First, I checked the information by placing my hand on her head.

The upper part is the same as before, so I skipped it and started looking at the part with characteristics.

[Resonance▽

Resonates with the sword within 30m for 10 minutes and can share one of the characteristics it had when in sword form. (Cooldown 12 hours)

‘Oh… I like this too?’

Doesn’t that mean that if you use fish sword technique while leaving Eden in human form, you can share one of the effects of Mind Sword Unity or Six Cham Bones?

It is a characteristic that greatly increases the value of swordsmanship because it can harden the sword or increase its penetrating power. Of course, you won’t be able to pick up Eden when using this attribute, but you can bring another sword.

‘Then he’ll need a total of 7 swords…’

Even if you try to match everything to hero level, you will lose a lot of money. Still, it will be of great help in the future, so I can’t stop buying it, so I need to quickly sell the bomb back and buy the sword.

“For now, I’ll fix that broken sword, so give it here.”

I opened my mouth as I handed over the iron sword I had been using until now.

“Could I possibly get 5 more swords of the same level as that one?”

Vulkan makes a puzzled expression.

“Isn’t that boy in black enough?”

I pointed to Eden and said, “One hundred words are worth one thousand words.” I immediately used the swordsmanship. Looking at the swords floating in the air, he made a surprised expression.

“Among the abilities I got this time, I have 5 swords floating in the air for 10 minutes, but Eden’s human form has awakened an attribute that gives the sword its own effect. So, excluding Eden, I need a total of 6 swords. “

The price of swords without magic is about 2 million won per sword. Excluding the sword I received for training, I need at least 10 million won.

“Do you have any money?”

‘I’ll have to go back to that dungeon.’

Among the dungeons you can go through before entering school, there is a place where you can make a good profit.

“Hmm… It’ll happen in three weeks, so just get ready. How much does it cost?”

“5 Bags cost 15 million won.”

It is more expensive than general swords, but considering the quality, the price is cheap. I just nodded. After a while, he received the repaired sword and transformed Eden into the form of the sword.

“Take this too.”

He handed me a scabbard in the shape of Eden.

“Is this…?”

“Check it out.”

I did as I was told.

[Unfinished Sword Sheath (only): A masterpiece created by Vulkan, the best artisan of Pangenia, who has begun to rekindle the craftsman’s soul, with scarce materials. It can be reinforced with better materials.

Stats▽

Strength 0.5, Sense 0.5, Stamina 0.5.

Baldo(抜刀)▽

The power of the next blow with the sword drawn from this scabbard is increased by 50%. (Cooldown 10 seconds)]

Even though it was just a scabbard that wrapped around a sword, it contained a significant amount of stat increase and useful abilities.

“Isn’t the original sword and scabbard one?

KANG- KANG-

Vulcan starts a new project just in case someone says I can’t accept it. If I was a real young woman, I think I would have asked her crazy helper to marry me.

‘I’m glad I’m a man.’

After bowing down to thank him, he left the studio with Eden put in the sheath.

“First of all, I told Seoyoon to come by 3 o’clock…”

It is now 7 am.

It will be around 7:30 when I get home, and since my magic power has reached 2.0, The next step in training the Hurons is possible, so I’m going to seriously hurt myself until Seoyoon comes.

‘f*ck…’

It is a training that you have no choice but to do even if you don’t want to. Still, she said once she got into level 3, she would no longer have to ostensibly self-harm, so she needed to reach level 3 proficiency ASAP.

-Seo Yoon-ah, you can come to this address by 3:00 later.

-Yes! (Rabbit nodding emoticon)

“The kid’s reply speed is no joke.”

I don’t think so, but she seems like she waited for my text. She replies in 5 seconds.

But since this often happened to her when she texted Suna, I wonder if the girls are just quick to reply.

When I play games, there are times when I can’t reply for 10 hours, but even if Suna couldn’t, she replied within 30 minutes.

-Sunah, did I solve my mana problem?

First of all, on the subway ride back, I thought I should tell Sun-ah first, so she texted me.

-Really? How much mana do you have now?

Even though it’s still 7:10 am, Suna answers like a knife. As expected, my hypothesis that girls reply quickly was correct.

-2.0 I got the minimum chin-up required for admission

The stability level is 2.5 Or higher, but if it is 2.0, It does not take the elimination standard.

-That teacher must be really great (cute bear exclamation emoticon)

‘That teacher is me…’

Because I got a secretary from Yeokcheon. Still, she couldn’t say that, so she replied moderately.

-Oh, you are such a wonderful person.

It feels a bit odd to do gold lacquer with my own hands.

-Then would you like to have dinner together as a commemoration? I’ll give you a chin

She always bought me food whenever something good happened. She has a lot of knowledge about restaurants, and every time I buy her food, she never disappoints me.

The moment I was about to answer yes, I suddenly remembered Seoyoon.

‘If we call them at 3 o’clock and practice together for 3 hours, it will be 6 o’clock…’

At that time, I wondered if it would be right to have a meal with Seoyoon, who I trained with. After all, it would be unreasonable to ask Seo-yoon to buy food for her first meeting with Sun-a.

-I don’t think I can because I have an appointment today. Let’s eat together tomorrow.

-Promise..? You have no friends but me

Sunah hits my bones. To be honest, it’s true that I have a very narrow relationship and I don’t have anyone I can say I’m close to except for Suna, but I never thought I’d say it so bluntly.

I sent a somewhat irritating text message because I was feeling repulsive.

-Ah, I’m going to have a meal with a cute girl. Talk to you later.

I sent a text like that and turned off the screen, but several text messages came in, and when I didn’t check, Suna started calling.

‘Suddenly why…?’

What the hell are you trying to say? I really don’t know
