Black Iron Magician ~ Training Story of the Untalented Disciple ~

Sure, I said I'd be fine while I had a low level of skill, even in bareback practice. But it's unusual to just wave a fist at a boulder and go up. In that one shot, you said you were so sharpening your nerves?

"Looks like we're really leveling up to see what's going on with the mundane Hull... for once, let me check?

"Yes, sir"

Check the status of Hull with the God Question Stone (Kamitoshi), which was puffed from Kanon. Shouldn't I show my status recklessly? The master is nothing else.

Martial arts skills are at level 2. Seriously.

"Hal, what the hell did you do?

"I don't care how they say I did it... as usual, I just did it with the intention of dying"

Are you willing to die? I'm sure you're doing it in a literal sense. Besides, as usual, is it normal for this guy to shrink nerves on a daily basis? There's so much I'm touching it.

"Master, does it look like you're getting any better status?

"Ah, oh. Will we talk about it at last? If the skill level increases, the stats corresponding to that skill will also increase. If it's the fighting technique that Hal just raised, then yes... HP, muscle strength, endurance, agility. Well, actually, I was up somewhat when I learned my skills."

"I see! Improve your skills and also your status. This is how you get stronger!

I knew you were right to actually let me do it. Unlike seating, it looks like it really got into Hal's head. But maybe this is a delicacy, and without saying what a sweet little thing it is for a week, it seems good to judge sooner.

"Hal. Try to continue that workout with a moderate break between the afternoon and preparing dinner. Depending on the outcome, you can officially forgive your apprenticeship"

"Is it true!? Me, you'll do your best!

"Oh, I'm hoping. We're gonna do it. We're gonna take a break, all right? Maybe even if you do the same thing, you're using your strength more than the rest of them."

Even if I don't tell you, Hal will know.

"Copy that! Can I try other martial arts? Judo and Aikido are limited because they don't have any opponents, but they do it with their hobbies."

... are you in a club or something? You do a lot of things extensively.

"No problem. Oh, yeah. I'm gonna cut some lemon."

Then I forgot my job and watched Hal's workout landscape the whole time.

Four hours have passed since the start of the workout. Speak up to Hal that it's the right time, and give him the towel. I also took a good break in between, but Hal, who hangs his whole body and encourages him to work out, is sweaty. Perhaps I should let you have some hot water before I prepare dinner. Fortunately, I have my own bath at home, even though I'm distressed. Baths are nothing but royalty mansions or luxury lodges, and I was desperate back then.

"Wow, it's good to move your body after all. It was becoming a gradual and beautiful move and I could feel it rising to height. I feel great."

"Well, the cancer skill level was rising while I was doing it. You'll feel better too. Hey, let me see your status."

"Oh, now you decide if you can be a master's apprentice, right? I'm nervous..."

When I offered him the Divine Question Stone, Hal let him touch the tablet in a nasty manner.

"- Level, 17!...... k, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo!

"Master?"

"Phew, phew... Phew. No, I laughed. I laughed. Hal, you're really funny."

I didn't know you'd be up here all at once in the last half day. You wouldn't expect to grow so far that you threw him into a monster's nest and let him fight death day and night.

"Yeah, I don't really know what your master meant by what you said... maybe you didn't have any prospects of being a disciple, or something?

"No, no, it was too much. Whoa, do you want me to recover before then? - Heels."

I'll heal the amount of HP you've grown with healing magic. The little light emitted from my fingertips disappeared as it blended into Hal's body. I wonder if this made it all faster.

"Wow, I'm pouting"

"That's a novel expression. So it's a matter of discipleship, but I'm going to allow it. Let's go to dinner."

"Lightly! I'm glad the trial period has been shortened, Master, but it's not a bit too light!?

"Ha-ha-ha."

It's a joke, Master Joke. If you want to officially disciple, you have to do this.

"Right, before dinner -"

Poaching this skill, and. A new notation appears on the status screen.

◇ Specify the subject of the special skill 'Uncrowned Master'.

Target audience: Yuna Guicheng

This skill is activated only once. Are you sure?

Ugh, that's pretty emotional. I never thought about disciples back then - ho, Jesus. This should give Hal a selection screen as well.

"... an uncrowned mentor? Master, what's this? I had a choice to be a master's apprentice."

"Does farewell mean something different? It's like a ritual to officially make you my apprentice. I admit as a disciple you don't have to do anything else, but what do you do? Maybe your old man's trying to trap young Hal."

"In Jesus"

Hal pressed his finger in no time. Don't you get lost in the dust?

"Don't look like such a dove ate a bean cannon. I still trust my master. You don't have to get lost."

"I wonder if I can trust such an adult for a day or so."

"I have good eyes, but I have a good nose. Because the master smells like that."

"Dog or you..."

"One way or the other, he's a cat."

No, it's not. Oh, forget it.

"I'll explain the current contract to you later. It would be easier to understand if we spoke on a set with the occupational level. Don't you dare, wash the sweat out of me in the bath. You'll catch a cold at night."

"Yes. Master, what would you like for dinner?

"Anything but mashed potatoes. I'm tired of eating that."

"No more likes or dislikes!

Dinner dishes came out as soon as Hal got out of the bath to see when he was planting them. Stir up your appetite, bring in a vicious scent. It's just that Hal was in jersey to replace the pyjamas. I thought I'd get a little bit of a bath fragrance, but that didn't happen.

- Day one of training, over.
