Became a Swordsman Genius in a Pretty Girl Game - Chapter 290



290. Test (3)

‘I haven’t gotten any stronger, so why do I like it so much······?’

The party members reacted violently.

Like, “Now I can finally stretch out my legs and sleep well,” “Do you know how worried I was every day sending you off?” “My junior has finally come to his senses.”

I looked dumbfounded at their reaction.

Gukbap-i, who had been watching, said.

“We train so that we don’t leave you alone in dangerous situations.”

“······ah?”

“That’s right, Jin Yu-ha, whenever you’re faced with an unpredictable and dangerous situation, you always throw yourself into it first, right?”

Shin Se-hee answered Gukbap’s words in a voice mixed with scolding.

Well, that’s it.

But since I have experience playing the game, I know the best about strategies and weaknesses, and since I am a sub-dealer, I can freely take appropriate actions at that time, so that’s why I did that······.

It seems that I have unintentionally caused a lot of worry to the party members.

‘······Still, I’m grateful to see you trying so hard to protect me.’

And my prediction was wrong, in a good way.

In a world without gacha, I had to somehow get through it with my bare body, so I was constantly feeling impatient······.

‘You’re much stronger than I thought.’

This time, after checking the strength of the party members,

Of course, it’s far from the level of the whales with fat wallets who spend hundreds of dollars from the beginning and play Munchkin by fully strengthening all characters and painting them with SSS-grade exclusive weapons.

At least it was a much more hopeful result than just spinning the gacha and strengthening it with the daily attendance check reward.

‘Well, if I make it to the final stage with my current skills······.’

Considering that the Demon King was caught early and the party members’ growth rate······,

‘I think I can clear it somehow······?’

The result was more hopeful than expected.

However, I did not let my guard down.

Well, without a single casualty?

If you ask that, there is still a question mark.

In a world where you can’t retry even after death, it’s essential to become much stronger than you are now!

At least I decided to be satisfied with the fact that I saw some hope.

‘We need to strengthen our power further.’

One of those solutions is probably,

A woman with a cynical air, who is now standing a step away and watching us blankly.

It was going to be Alice.

I greeted the party members appropriately, turned my head to her, and said.

“Then, can I see your skills now?”

For a moment, as the party members’ eyes turned to her, Alice’s expression hardened.

I looked at her and remembered what the inspector had told me.

– My granddaughter may not look like it, but she’s quite shy······. She may look cold, but it’s only because she’s cut off from the outside world. On the inside, she’s quite soft.

A personality that is strong on the outside but soft on the inside.

Well, I think it’s possible up to this point.

The character of a cold and aloof woman who doesn’t open her heart to others is actually a tofu-like mentality.

Because it’s a popular character personality that has been used for a long time in bishoujo games.

However, what confused me was something a little different.

– That kid is originally supposed to use a spear······. But because he follows me around so much, he insists on using a sword, which is the problem.

– So, would it be okay if I ask you to please help that child develop his talents?

Srrrrung─

At my request to show her skills, Alice drew the sword she had on her waist.

As expected of the granddaughter of the inspector, her manners look quite plausible.

“Summon the enemy.”

Then, Shin Se-hee manipulated the training ground system window and summoned the enemy.

The giant golems that had been hitting Yuri’s shield earlier were summoned in droves.

It seems that if you want to belong in Utopia, you should be able to handle at least this much on your own.

Alice, who had been staring at the golem, nodded and kicked her foot.

Alice’s new form rushing towards the golems.

She twisted her body to the side and swung her sword.

A sword wrapped in mana cuts through the air.

Crunch─!

The golem’s body can be easily cut as if cutting tofu.

In an instant, one golem with its core cut off is finished,

Alice immediately kicked the body of the falling golem and headed towards the next one.

“Wow······. This is, more······ than I thought.”

“Hmm, your skills······are not bad.”

“Also, there’s a great junior······.”

However, the party members were keeping their eyes wide open to find and point out flaws.

Alice’s actual inaction was more than they had imagined.

I too was watching Alice’s skills.

Simply fast and strong.

Even considering that the Utopia party members and I have grown so much that we could almost be called completely different people compared to a year ago, Alice’s current appearance was extraordinary.

It wasn’t that I didn’t understand.

Well, didn’t you experience it together in the Forest of Swords with Yuri Lee and Dohee Kang?

Alice has been training in a place where her physical abilities and mana are limited to nearly 90%.

I grew up in a place where they had iron bars attached to my entire body, from when I was very young until now.

I’m probably feeling overflowing with energy right now.

As if to prove that, a faint smile was on Alice’s blunt lips as she cut down the golems.

‘It seems like I still can’t control my overflowing physical abilities and mana······.’

It’s just a matter of adaptation and will naturally resolve itself over time.

There are still some areas that need improvement in terms of power control and movement control before it can be used as Utopia’s power right away.

With just a little bit of polishing, it would have been immediately comparable in terms of power.

but.

‘······Uh, um.’

I couldn’t help but lick my lips awkwardly as I watched her movements.

Certainly, the way he handles the sword looks quite plausible on the surface.

Cuts well, stabs well.

The movements were well-coordinated and precise, as if they had not been learned in vain from the sword master.

Yeah, Alice definitely deserved the limited edition character.

‘······But why is the tip of the sword so light?’

Well, I guess he imitates swordsmanship and swings his sword around pretty well······.

It felt as if I had forcibly pulled it out using my innate physical abilities and mana.

really.

I never thought that someone like me, who was only a 1-star player and wouldn’t even be able to talk to them if it weren’t for the early-stage talent, would be saying something like this when looking at someone······.

It is visible.

It catches the eye.

Alice’s talent.

This was not Alice’s path.

* * *

“Swoop, hoo······.”

Thump thump.

She managed to kill all the enemies, finishing off the last golem a little while ago.

She forced herself to suppress the laughter that was bubbling up in her mouth without her knowing.

It can’t be helped.

Right now, his swordsmanship was truly top-notch.

The body stretched out as intended.

The feeling of power being applied to the tip of the sword was incredibly vivid.

I guess you can see how inhibited I was when I originally lived with my grandmother.

Now Alice felt omnipotent, as if she could do anything.

I was worried that I might make a mistake in front of Jin Yu-ha, but honestly, even in my opinion, my sword was perfect right now.

It was also the fact that I had implemented my grandmother’s sword, which I had always tried to follow but failed to do, into my own body.

‘As expected, it was a lie that I had no talent.’

purple.

The people of that great utopia.

Aren’t even those who used to look at you with displeasure looking at you with their eyes wide open?

She felt goosebumps lightly running up her body and controlled her expression.

“That’s about it.”

“Hmm, to this extent, definitely······. Haa, I understand why you brought me to the main party······. Tsk, I pass.”

The first one to shout out that she had passed was surprisingly Shin Se-hee.

As everyone stared at her with their eyes wide open, Shin Se-hee clicked her tongue and said.

“Everyone, why are you looking at me like that? When Jin Yu-ha was brought in, I tried to accept it if it was at a reasonable level. But now that it’s gone beyond a reasonable level, there’s no reason not to accept it.”

“······Shin Se-hee, you─.”

“Oh, don’t worry about that. That’s a different story. I don’t think I’ll compromise on that part either.”

The party members exchanged glances.

Jinyu tilted his head, not knowing English.

“Huh? What do you mean? That part?”

“Umm, Jin Yu-ha, you brought Alice to increase our party’s attack power, right?”

“Of course······? Otherwise, why would you bring me to our party?”

“···Haa, I knew it.”

Then, the other party members who had been exchanging glances also raised their hands one by one to express their agreement.

“approval······.”

“approval.”

“I agree too.”

Alice was accepted into the Utopia party unanimously.

She could now understand exactly what Shin Se-hee meant.

‘So, you’re saying that it’s okay as a party member, but not as a new woman?’

Alice had already talked to them separately last time.

‘······It was my intention to begin with, if only I could learn swordsmanship!’

What’s more important to her right now is…

This is how this guy just viewed his own skills.

Although she can’t compare to her own grandmother.

A talent recognized by that grandmother.

Because I showed the sword in front of that person.

Jin Yu-ha’s black eyes stare blankly at him.

“Ms. Alice, can I speak more freely from now on?”

Nod.

“Welcome to our utopia party.”

however.

Jin Yu-ha said that and then scratched the back of his head and made a strange expression.

And, something he absolutely did not want to hear.

“But, Alice, do you really have to use that sword?”

Those words came out of his mouth.

“I don’t know how this will sound, but······. This sword doesn’t seem to suit you.”

At the same time, thump—Alice’s heart sank.
