A genius gamer is reincarnated into a famous hero episode 191

Junction of Fate (3)

The disciplinary action was final.

Harang and Chorien were locked in solitary confinement for three months for damaging the property and nature of the Heavenly Palace in the middle of the night, eating only Byeokgokdan (穀丹) for food.

This solitary cell, where you can tell the difference between morning and night by the faint light coming in, is over 30 pyeong (large) enough to practice swordsmanship, and the facilities are relatively good and not old, so it seemed like there would be no problem for me to stay there for three months.

‘Bob is Byeokgokdan.’

I never thought I would actually see something I only see in martial arts novels.

The ingredients are said to be a mixture of dried and ground pine tree pollen, pine needles, etc., and the calories are so high that eating just one every two days is enough.

Even though it contains soybeans, I thought it might be lacking in protein, but since it was made using a special elixir recipe, there seemed to be no need to worry.

Eating this doesn’t mean you’ll suddenly become stronger. Because you just eat it instead of a meal.

It doesn’t taste very good, but it’s effective.

Being trapped here for three months may seem like a huge loss in many ways, but surprisingly, it was perfect because Harang’s plan required this kind of time at least once.

From the time I became able to handle Seongi to some extent, there were things I really wanted to do.

Although it was lonely to be alone, Harang had someone to talk to.

-Huh, your condition has definitely improved compared to before?

Cardion, the Elemental Emperor of Chaos. As soon as he was summoned, he first examined Harang’s body.

“Were you worried?”

-Damn, I’m not worried, but if the contractor gets weaker, my level will also drop? Anyway, I thought there was absolutely nothing I could do unless a fairy came forward, but judging by the feeling, I didn’t receive any help. Did you achieve it alone?

“I trained with the help of many people. “There is nothing in this world I can achieve alone.”

-You seem disgustingly humble. So sick of it. Are all heroes like that? Anyway, I want to give it all away.

“haha.”

Harang smiled awkwardly and sat cross-legged in his seat with his hands clasped together.

Then, as he raised his mana, Cardion looked interested.

-I dealt with Seongi a little bit… … Have you learned how to use natural power? Haha! Want to use my power? There’s no way around it, you idiot. Humans cannot understand the power of chaos. You’ll just lose your mind.

Cardion had such great power, but the reason why no contractor had appeared anywhere, including the elves, was because of the intricacies of the power of chaos.

While elemental spirits such as fire and water can be handled intuitively and their destructive power is immediate, the power of chaos cannot.

“that… … “It probably happened because most people tried to use spirit power destructively.”

-what?

Cardion looked embarrassed at Harang’s strange sound. Her face did not have a human expression, but rather an emoticon like (○ _ ○).

-Are there any other reasons why you humans learn the power of spirits?

“I’m a little different.”

Even without having to deal with spirit power, he had many strategies he could use. So, this means that there is no need to learn elemental magic aggressively.

“I plan to accept the power of chaos as it is, rather than in a destructive way.”

-Hmm… … The words are flashy, though.

There have been countless people who have tried to sign a contract with Cardion, but most of them have failed. But Harang succeeded in signing the contract anyway, so wouldn’t something be different?

-Well, it’s all good, but it won’t be easy if you have that much anxiety.

“… … “Can you see it?”

-I can see everything. My head is full of random thoughts. Tsk tsk. Judging by the feeling, isn’t this a heavenly palace? It doesn’t teach you how to control your mind, and it doesn’t have the same old reputation.

“… … .”

As Cardion said, in fact, Harang was currently unable to concentrate properly on training.

I was just trying to force myself to do something because I was running out of time.

His biggest worry was none other than Chorien.

‘It’s clear that that girl will be a bad influence on me.’

Do not keep it close. It is better to get as far away as possible and live your whole life without being involved anymore. It was not Harang’s own judgment, but a secret revelation given to him by Calantatis.

‘… … Let’s not get involved in the future.’

I wondered what that mysterious sleepwalker was and why I had come across it by chance in the Heavenly Palace, but the more I tried to think about it, the more complicated my mind became.

-Tsk, I can’t help it if you do it that way. I will help you deal with chaos especially on your own. Instead, let them know that we will never tolerate giving up midway.

Harang smiled at his words. It would be great for Seongi training if he directly helped.

* * *

A month passed like that.

There has been quite a bit of progress in Harang’s practice of spirit magic. Although it is about the size of the palm of your hand, it succeeds in summoning chaos.

Cardion praised him for doing just that well, but he was not satisfied.

“At least everything within my sight should be covered with chaos.”

-Crazy, it wouldn’t be easy for a human to do something like that, right? Right now, my strength is so weak that I can barely cover one building with chaos.

“One building… … Then let’s aim for that. “I want to be like Cardion.”

-Huh.

There was a simple reason why Harang set this level of goal.

‘A place covered in chaos can significantly increase my synchronization rate.’

While dueling with Chorien the other day, I realized a lot. The overwhelming special move she unleashed was enough to send her harang into shock.

The current Harang never had the confidence to defeat a 7-star swordsman with just one skill. Even if you use a dragon sword.

The moment you go from 6-star to 7-star, the level itself jumps tremendously, so in order for the current Harang to beat a 7-star swordsman, he will have to pour out all of his skills, including magic and the dragon sword.

Even the premise was ‘a 7-star swordsman who is not a blood relative of a master swordsman’. If the opponent is a 7-star with a special bloodline… … It will never be easy to gain the upper hand.

However, Chorien showed a level of force that could easily overwhelm a 7-star.

Without using anything else, just pure swordsmanship!

Until now, Harang had never thought that he was inferior to anyone in terms of swordsmanship, even though he was learning magic.

But, we finally got to meet each other.

While Harang was learning things other than swordsmanship, a true genius who had lived a similar number of years and had only learned swordsmanship appeared and overwhelmed him with swordsmanship.

‘If we hadn’t used the dragon sword and the illusion sword… … Still, if I hadn’t used magic, it would have been difficult to defeat Chorien.’

In that case, naturally, Harang’s mind would think of ways to strengthen his swordsmanship, but he was not impatient.

We already know that learning only one sword technique is not the answer.

That’s Chorien’s way.

Even if Harang belatedly said that he would only learn swordsmanship by watching Chorien, the time he had invested so far in learning magic and spirits would have been wasted.

‘My strength is dealing with all the martial arts that exist in this world.’

Magic, spirits, swordsmanship, martial arts.

A person who understands and trains everything perfectly, so that no matter what enemy he encounters, he shows no weakness and can always stand ‘perfectly’ at the top.

That was the ultimate strength that Harang pursued.

‘Magic and swordsmanship. Those who become strong with only one of the two will inevitably have weaknesses.’

Even if he reaches a level that transcends humanity like Duke Kal-El Paul Kaladan, his weaknesses are clearly common. I was sure. If someone who has trained to a level similar to yours uses weapons or martial arts that give them an edge over swordsmanship, they will definitely be at a disadvantage.

Even if I am a little behind in terms of swordsmanship right now, someday in the distant future, I will definitely prove to the world that my methods are not wrong… … .

Knock knock-!

While I was in a trance practicing the power of chaos, I heard a knock on the wall.

-anybody home? Dear Confucius!

It was Chorien’s voice.

-Huh, is he your lover?

“no.”

-Why don’t you answer me? They kept calling me.

“… … .”

Although he wanted to keep his distance from Chorien, that didn’t mean he had the personality to ignore people who called him. His unique personality of being polite became toxic in times like this.

“huh. I’m here.”

-oh! also… … Well, I want to apologize. He was disciplined because of me… … .

“are you okay. It was an interesting experience. sincerely.”

-Is that so… … .

The voice gets quieter. He also seemed embarrassed.

“Three months of discipline is a cheap price to pay for such an interesting duel.”

-Seo, three months? It’s been a month since I came out today… … .

“I even used magic.”

-ah.

Magic is a form of witchcraft that is completely taboo in the Heavenly Palace. The fact that he came from a famous swordsman family probably played a role in the fact that he only received about two months of additional disciplinary action despite using magic.

“So, what brought you here?”

-yes? ah. I just want to apologize… … .

“I don’t think that’s the only goal?”

Chorien hesitated beyond the wall and slowly parted his lips.

-Yes, that is… … I ended up having a duel with the master of Manryu-geom.

“A hold-back sword? “Are you talking about the Gulf Forest?”

-yes.

“It’s not the right level. “That person is a 7-star, so it’s the realm of high-ranking knights.”

Since a 7-star knight uses ‘sword light’, there is a high possibility that 6-star Chorien’s sword power will be easily clogged.

-I heard that sword skills are not used at all. It is said that they do not use any auras and duel only with natural energy and swordsmanship.

“Then there is a possibility, but… … .”

-In addition, Confucius Ha-rang also won against Geom-gang when he had just barely awakened his sword-power, right?

“… … “That is a different case.”

Harang once won against a 4-star player when he was at a 2-star level.

However, this was possible because at the time, Harang was only a 2-star horseman, and his actual swordsmanship skills surpassed a 4-star swordsman.

In addition to the other party’s lack of experience, Harang’s experience was, on the contrary, very rich.

Unless such conditions were met, it was very difficult to gain an advantage over a prosecutor of a higher rank than oneself.

Moreover, a 7-star level who starts using sword light has a sense and physical ability that easily exceeds that of an ordinary warrior, so even if sword skills are banned, it will not be easy.

-Of course I said there was no need to win. They said that the most important measure of your skills is how well you can endure against him!

“but. “The duel between the strong and the weak has always been fought that way.”

If a 7-star and 6-star swordsman fight a duel, the 7-star swordsman will naturally win with a 99% probability. The reason for the duel despite the predetermined outcome was simple.

‘How well did a 6-star swordsman respond against a 7-star swordsman, how many more effective hits did he land, and how long did he last?’

That was the perspective from which the duel was viewed.

“Okay, I hope there are good results.”

-yes! I heard that if I show results this time, I will finally be able to receive lessons from the Fairy Emperor! Thanks to the support of Confucius Harang, I will fight hard in the duel!

And just like that, Chorien left.

Not long after, news arrived.

-… … It is said that Grand Princess Chorien of the Emblitz family was completely shattered in a duel with the Manu Rim sword and received fatal injuries, and she is currently unconscious.

“… … .”

It is said that Chorien could not last even 5 minutes in a duel with Manurim. That means one thing. This would mean that the opponent was attacking Chorien with the intention of killing him, not as a duel.

“Didn’t Emblitz make a protest?”

-It is only natural to get hurt and collapse during a duel. They must be well aware that protesting here would be even more embarrassing for Emblitz. but… … First of all, the Emblitz delegation is coming. I’ll probably make an appropriate protest, but I won’t be able to put Manryu Sword at a disadvantage.

“No matter what, if there is a difference in level, won’t you look at the inside of your hand a little?”

-Manryu-geom said he tolerated it. It’s just that the opponent was too weak… … .

“… … .”

Harang clenched his fists.

Chorien was too weak?

No way. Judging by her growth rate, she will reach 7 stars before she even reaches her 20s. She had never seen a genius as great as her in her life, and she was weak?

‘It’s ugly jealousy.’

Manwoorim himself barely reached the 7th star level when he was in his 20s, but since Chorien was growing too quickly, his intention was to crush her before she could grow any further. If you don’t fight again later, it will forever be recorded that you won.

Crack!

Harang’s fist was tightly clenched.

“… … “Didn’t Manryu Sword challenge me to a duel?”

-Anyway, once Prince Harang is released, he said he would formally challenge him to a duel.

“Good.”

Harang grabbed the sword.

“Please tell me to fully enjoy my victory until two months after I am released.”

Anger leads to anger. Even though I knew I should never get excited, I just couldn’t hold back this time.

“I, too, will treat you with sincerity.”
