I am the Monarch

< Chapter 21 Tron Academy >

------------------------------------

The greatest spear on the continent.

The greatest genius on the continent.

There were a lot of tinnitus referring to Fields.

But there was a prosecutor one step ahead of Pills who heard the sound of genius.

He was Brian Miles.

Brian was the eldest son of the writer Miles, who had excelled in swordsmanship since he was a child, and had already reached the early stages of Sword Man before entering the Academy.

The Rhine dynasty supported the rising sword and mana for Brian, who may be the first sovereign master of the kingdom, while providing primates with the benefits of magical enhancement.

Perhaps thanks to his extensive support, Brian reached the pinnacle of Sword Man within a year of entering Tron Academy.

I was excited that if I grew up like this, I might be able to truly create the first sorcerer in the Rhine Kingdom.

But...

‘That's it. ’

Roan sighs for a moment.

Why Brian was called an unlucky genius.

Somehow Brian's growth stopped in the second grade of the Academy.

At the age of 17, getting to the top of the Sword Man was a great achievement, but for Brian who was looking up at the higher ground, there was a great difficulty in his growth.

‘He collapsed little by little, little by little.......’

At last another genius, or class, has completely collapsed into the appearance of another genius, Phil.

Expected to become the first sovereign master in the kingdom, the genius killed himself at the age of twenty-eight.

‘Is it the second year since the beginning of identity? ’

Roan looks at Brian.

A face full of weariness.

‘Looks like you're getting tired already. ’

I felt sorry for him.

Then.

“I listened to the special talk. That was an interesting subject, but Baron Tail's presence is a longtime warrior guarding the battlefield, right? I heard your spear skills are great. ”

“Rumors often swell. ”

Roan smiles.

Brian still looks prestigious.

“Please teach me a lesson. ”

He bows deeply.

Polite and polite attitude.

Moreover, knowing his future, Roan felt some desperation in his appearance.

‘You must be looking for a breakthrough. ’

Roan takes a deep breath.

‘Maybe this duel will help him. ’

What wasn't with Roan or Brian in his last life.

“Very well. Let's fight. ”

Brian raises his head in horror at the end.

I was incontinent with a wealthy look.

I felt a little bit, but enjoyable.

Next to him, several students liked it with their fists clenched.

They were the ones who made fun of him when he first arrived at Tron Academy.

"It was them. ’

I smiled bitterly.

‘Maybe if you confront the longevity in action, you'll feel something.' ’

Brian would have reacted with the feeling of catching a straw.

But whatever it was, I wanted to help Brian, too.

If all goes well, the first sovereign master of the Rhine Kingdom may be born.

‘You could be a good competitor for Fields. ’

Of course, I wanted to put it at my side when I had the chance.

“Hey! This is awesome! ”

“A duel between Baron Roan Tail, hero of the Punitive War, and Brian, best prosecutor in the Academy! ”

“Who will win? ”

“Even if Baron Tail has excellent spear skills, Brian would have a much higher level of manna. ”

“Aye. It's a duel, a duel. The Dalian ceremony restricts Mana use. It's all about swordsmanship and spear. ”

The students were excited about a sudden disappearance.

Brian takes a step toward the monolith, regardless of his surrounding reaction.

“Brian! Brian! ”

The students embraced Brian's name.

“That was unexpected. ”

President Fred Brown looks embarrassed, watching the situation.

He soon turned his head to look at Professor Ramble Valley of the Knights Department.

“Professor Valley. I want you to take over the ceremony. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

Ramble nods coldly and rises from his seat.

Soon, he sent a number of students to bring weapons and armor from the training ground storage.

The table on the platform was removed and the arena was set up in no time.

Fred and the academy professors looked odd.

‘I can see the rumors. ’

‘If Brian wins here, he can attract the attention he's been waning. ’

Meanwhile, Roan and Brian face each other on the platform.

“Thank you for taking part in the battle. ”

Brian lowers his head deeply.

Roan shakes his head, smiling faintly.

“It will be a great study for me, too. ”

Meet young talent to lead the Rhine Kingdom.

It was a worthy duel.

Brian picks up one of the wooden swords.

“Baron Tail. ”

“Yes, go ahead. ”

Similarly, Roan looks at Brian, looking at his neck.

“How about a real sparring contest? ”

“Hmm.”

Roan frowns slightly.

There was a big difference between a general struggle and a practical struggle.

If the general contender feels like a training exercise to match each other's skills, the real contender is close to winning or losing a battle.

It was a struggle that could put people's lives at risk if they didn't use a weapon without a blade.

“Is that really necessary? ”

Brian smiles awkwardly and replies.

“I want to taste the raw, live spear. Baron Tail said…..”

My eyes became energized.

“The spear I used on the battlefield. ”

A polite and eager voice.

In fact, Brian has already fought many times with many knights.

Nevertheless, the growth stagnation continued and I felt an unknown lack.

Thirst like burning throat.

‘Wouldn't it be different to deal with real-world technologies? ’

I had such expectations.

I asked Roan to fight, knowing that the teasing of my sisters was just a childish thing.

Brian looks at Roan's eyes.

He sighed for a short time, feeling that look.

‘You must be very frustrated. ’

He nods slowly.

“Very well. Let's have a real fight. ”

“Thank you."

Brian bows once more.

He swings a wooden sword around and relaxes.

On the other hand, Roan, who was picking up his neck, took a step and stood in front of the leather armor.

“Huh? Armor? ”

“You want to wear armor to a duel? ”

“Are you afraid you'll get hit by a wooden sword? ”

The students murmured.

It's the same for professors as well.

Especially the professors of the Faculty of Science frowned and complained.

“Armor for a duel. This is the first time I've seen this. ”

“I see. Baron Tail is not a man at all. Wearing armor in a duel with a student. ”

“That's not a knight. You must be a regular soldier. ”

Chancellor Fred Brown shakes his head as he listens.

“It's a real battle. I don't care if you wear armor or helmets. ”

“Ha, but there's no knight who actually does that. ”

The professor of the University of Knights shouted in protest.

Fred shakes his head.

I sighed deeply.

"Hehe. The folly of knights... Tsk." They are those who seek respect even when their lives are at stake. ’

Fred, who was originally a Gatekeeper, was fed up with the knights' chatter and unnecessary manners.

In the meantime, the noise became louder and louder.

However, he wore leather armor thoroughly, regardless.

I also wore a leather hand lamp guard and helmet.

‘It's looser than I thought. ’

Roan swings his neck a few times and once more hits the armor's joint.

I jumped lightly, bent at the waist, and carefully checked that there was no discomfort.

“Are you wearing armor for the duel? ”

Brian smiles.

“It's a real battle. ”

He taps his breastplate and says,

“Armor is required in practice. ”

“Hmm.”

Brian spills a low tear.

It was hard for him to understand, given his education in the Ministry of Knights.

Don't you feel cowardly and drowsy? ’

The idea of a classic knight.

He shakes his head, looking at Brian like that.

‘Knights of this age, especially undergraduate students, were engrossed in worthless vanity and looks. ’

The battle is like a battle.

It was reckless not to have the proper armor in a situation where your life could be at risk.

‘The difference between Fields and Brian. Maybe that was the difference between a hands-on experience and a mind. ’

Pills began as a regular soldier and studied on the front lines even after he became a disciple of the Earl of Rail Baker.

Brian, on the other hand, went to the Academy and was trained in swordsmanship, and since graduation he has focused exclusively on his training as a member of the Royal Knights.

‘If I'm right.......’

You catch a faint smile on Roan's mouth.

‘I want you to show me what's going on today. ’

I was about to change my mind when I was bitten by vanity.

After a brief greeting, Roan and Brian open the distance.

The sticks and the wooden sword point at each other.

You are ready for a duel.

“Ready!”

Lemble raises his right hand.

At that moment, Roan's eyes changed.

There was a spark in his blasphemous eyes.

At the same time, there was a choking sensation all over me.

It was a period and a lifetime reminiscent of a sharp blade.

Suck!

Ramble swallows up the false wind as he announces the start of the duel.

My hair became soft and I was sweating cold.

But at least he was better off.

Brian stands facing Roan, choking for a moment.

‘Mana? No. This is strength.'

This was the first time.

‘This is the true form of a longevity fighter! ’

My eyes trembled.

Distant professors and students, on the other hand, did not notice the changes that were happening on the ground.

It was only Brian and Ramble who felt the choking life and vigor of Roan.

Gulp.

Brian swallows his thirsty saliva.

Somehow my heart was pounding.

‘Yeah, I was hoping for this. ’

I feel a rush of energy in my hand with the wooden sword.

There was a strange silence.

However, the students who did not know the situation above the stage tilted their heads and raised their voices.

“What? Why don't you start? ”

“What is it?”

“What's going on? ”

The noise became louder and louder.

Then Ramble wakes up late and screams.

“Go!”

At the same time, he dodged the body into a single phase corner.

Even a professor of the undergraduate degree, it was not easy to endure Roan's strength.

‘You look like you've been on the battlefield for decades. ’

It was not at all appropriate for Roan's age.

At that time, the shouts of the students erupted.

“Waaaahhhh!”

Excited when the duel started.

Brian bends his knees slightly, feeling the heat of the students.

‘I'll get the ball first…..’

He aims for the First Men.

But it was Roan who moved first.

Blame!

Roan kicks the floor and flies toward Brian.

The end of the staff trembled and split the space.

Brian quickly pulls back out of the range of his neck.

‘There you go.'

I'm relieved.

Roan's scepter grows longer.

For that brief moment, he once again stumbled onto the ground.

Suck!

Brian twists, swallowing the false wind.

Pa!

The end of the staff grazes the side.

‘Clearly there are no piles. ’

Brian realizes that Roan's spear is very efficient in just one race.

‘Is this a real spear? If so, I.......’

He turns, rubbing his feet against the ground.

The edge of the wooden sword was cold dancing through the space.

‘This is the way the royal and noble swords rise! ’

It was the most powerful sword made of only essence and essence among the Kingdom's elite swords.

To do this, the Royal Knights, as well as all the powerful officers and gatekeepers, joined forces.

Pa!

The wooden sword moves dizzily and draws a complex sword.

‘Hmm.'

Roan grips his teeth at the vision of a wooden sword that seems to have chopped off his entire body right away.

Jiaying.

Kalian's tears have risen.

At that moment, Brian's wooden sword slows down, along with everything in the world.

‘Clearly a splendid sword. ’

Roan sticks his tongue out, looking at the sword that seems inevitable.

He swiftly swings his scabbard to mark the connection point of the sword.

Tongue!

The wooden sword bounces off with a cheerful strike.

‘Heavy.’

Roan is stunned by the heavy power that is being conveyed with the blow.

It wasn't just Brian's black splendor.

‘I shouldn't have called you a genius. ’

It would have been difficult for Roan to ensure victory without his tears.

Brian, on the other hand, is greatly astonished.

"You cut off your sword with one single blow? ’

I broke through the connection point precisely.

Never in this case.

‘There were not enough rumors! ’

Brian shrugs his lower lip.

The bouncing wooden sword twists once, and it flies toward Roan again.

Thump, thump! Tong! Tong!

The striking sounds followed by intense workshops.

Roan actively uses his tears to stop Brian's fierce attacks.

That's why, over time, Brian's momentum grows stronger.

No, to be precise, he became more and more amused.

In any direction, with any skill or force, Roan was too easily stopped.

Thanks to this, I was able to unleash all the skills and skills I knew.

‘This is the first time. ’

In the meantime, it was only a long struggle before the sum of fifty was reached.

Within fifty seconds, the opponent loses or himself loses.

I couldn't remember swinging my sword as much as I wanted.

But now it's different.

‘Now I think I can spill everything I know. ’

I became famous by myself.

You forget that this is a battle, and you focus your mind only on the edge of the wooden sword.

Ugh!

When the concentration reaches its limit, Mana follows the wooden sword without even knowing it.

Pa!

The bluish Mana glistens lightly along the blade.

Mmm!

As Roan flicks his wooden swords, he frowns at the sudden change.

You step back and try to shake it off, but Brian comes at you fiercely.

‘I can't help it. ’

Roan shakes his inner head and operates the Flamdor Mana method.

A pure and powerful force rises from Manahall.

Pa!

Along the staff, a clear, light Mana settles.

Bam, bam! Bang!

Even the sound of the strike has changed.

A sharp sound struck my ear.

"Ugh!"

Roan grips his teeth.

I feel like my hands are hanging loose.

Brian starts using Mana in earnest, and it's not easy to deal with.

Obviously, Brian was one or two steps ahead of Manat's achievement level.

‘But we can't back down like this. ’

Roan shed Mana's tears.

Moment.

Pot!

The whole world was filled with golden light.

‘Well, that's how you're using Mana. ’

Roan smiles at Brian's body and Manah, who wields his wooden sword.

Just by knowing Mana's flow, you can predict when and how Brian's attack will begin.

"Huh?

At that time, there was a strange flow in Roan's gaze.

As Brian's body softly flows, Mana pauses for a moment and bounces off the wall.

The bounced Mana flows along the manaroed to the wooden sword, coalescing together and gently moving.

What is it?

So short a time.

It happened so fast.

If it wasn't for Callian's tears, you wouldn't even notice.

Then.

Pa!

The wooden sword passes by your ear.

However, all the movements in the world seemed slow enough for him to yawn out, avoiding it easily.

“Ow!”

“Did you see that? ”

“I thought my head was smashed in by a wooden sword! ”

The students who were watching were startled and screamed.

It was the same for professors as well.

“You're using Mana, right? ”

“Manara in the Dalian! It's too dangerous."

There was a commotion.

Fred, on the other hand, was cautious.

"Have you ever seen Brian so passionate? ’

There was none.

Especially now, Brian has always looked wealthy.

‘We'll see. ’

Fred shakes his hands as if to calm down at the professors.

“When things get dangerous, let's stand up. ”

The professors nodded, trying to say a few more words.

Meanwhile, Roan and Brian's workshop has become increasingly intense.

The more he did, the more intense Brian's focus became.

I can't even see Roan anymore.

All you can see is the end of the wooden sword.

Just a little more! Just a little more! '

I felt like I could break the congestion just a little longer.

Sweet expectations soar below the altitude of concentration.

That was the problem.

Desire shakes with Brian's focus.

"Just a little more!!!!!!! ’

For a moment, Brian's momentum changed.

The ferocious but stable aura changed to a violent frenzy.

The first person to notice the change was Roan.

"The plant is shaking! ’

Roan steps back, fending off a stormy attack.

Manah's body goes crazy.

"Leave it like this and Mana will go crazy!" ’

I could have lost my life, not to mention being a lung.

Roan empowers the clutches of his neck.

But we can't just attack.

‘It would be easier to kill…..’

The problem was that you only had to overwhelm them.

Then.

Again? ’

Manah's insides bounce off the ground as if he had been blocked by something again.

‘It's a very short moment, but every time Mana bounces off, Brian's movements are unnatural. ’

Roan bounces back and raises his concentration.

Waiting for Mana to bounce off Brian's body.

Fortunately, as Brian started to lose his mind and panic, it became very frequent.

Thung!

Once more, Brian's manna bounces off the ground.

"Now!"

Roan twists his neck, twisting his feet.

Pa!

The end of the staff slams into Brian's chest as he cuts through the space.

An electric quartz attack, in fact.

Brian, who was on the verge of an attack, was unable to evade or stop him.

Puck!

“Ugh.”

Brian stretches his left shoulder out in agony.

Roan turns around and swings his neck.

Puck!

The staff slaps Brian's left side firmly.

“Hehe!”

Brian pulls back, grabbing his side.

However, the eyes were still as intense and the Mana in the body was also going crazy.

"A little more, a little more!!!! ’

Brian lunges at Roan with a burst of ferocity.

‘Poor guy. ’

Roan sighs for a moment.

He could feel the tremendous pressure and pressure that a genius would have to carry.

‘I'm sure you were very optimistic that you didn't meet people's expectations. ’

That urgency would have led to the current rush.

Roan glances at the wooden sword that cuts through the space as if it were going to cut off his face.

Ugh.

Brian's wooden sword grazes his nose as if it were touching him.

Perfect distance calculation.

Fit!

However, I couldn't touch it, but my nose was cut open and I was bleeding.

It was Mana.

“Ugh!”

“Wow!"

Elasticity burst out among the students.

Roan frowns slightly, but does not stop or bite.

Blame!

He dips his foot into Brian's arms with a flowing wooden sword.

“Huh?"

“Huh?"

“Changsoo in melee combat? ”

Students and professors all look confused.

On the other hand, Roan's expression was very bold.

He tucks himself under Brian's right arm.

Spot.

Roan turns to Brian's back, as if riding a tree.

At the same time, he wraps his right arm around Brian's neck and grabs his right shoulder with his left arm.

Perfect jog.

“Hehe.”

Brian lets out a heavy sigh.

He struggles to take him down, but he hangs on tight.

‘This is the neck choking technique of the Reid Act. ’

Roan spills Mana into his arms.

My muscles swell up tightly.

Eventually, Brian, struggling, falls back.

“Hehe. Hehe! ”

Brian drools and rolls his eyes.

Literally right around the end of the day.

I lost all my strength.

“Whew.”

Roan just released his gag.

“Queek! Queek! ”

Brian coughs, breathing heavily.

Roan gets up from his seat and clears out the loose armor.

Of course, his gaze was on Brian.

‘Once Mana stabilizes somewhat….. hmm? ’

When I thought about it.

Brian's Mana bounces back and forth from his body as he regains his composure and begins to boil again.

“Cough!”

Brian gets up from his seat after a deep cough.

Blood splashes from my mouth.

“We're not done yet. ”

It was a normal tone, but I felt mad.

Brian's still in a frenzy.

"Trouble. ’

Roan frowns.

Then.

Shhh!

Brian pulls up all the Mana in his body.

Boo-hoo.

The wooden sword couldn't take it. It was incontinent everywhere.

“Ahhhh!”

Brian crashes to the ground with the creature.

He was determined to spill everything with this last blow.

It was never a good idea.

"At this rate, you will become obsessed!" ’

Roan quickly tugs at the staff.

You examine Brian's rushing Mana flow.

"Just once! Just one more time! ’

There's only one way to stop the runaway.

When Brian's Mana bounces off his body for a moment, stabbing his Mana at that moment.

Even though Brian's Mana could have all been lost, it would still be better than being lung or dead.

‘Just once, just once. ’

Roan holds a spear and stares at Brian's Mana Flow.

In the meantime, Brian is at his doorstep.

A wooden sword full of Mana could shatter your head.

Gulp.

The drowsiness dries by itself and cold sweat flows along my forehead.

Do we have to avoid it? ’

All at once.

Then.

Thung.

Brian's Mana bounces off the ground.

Twitch.

Brian may not have felt it himself, but the tip of his wooden sword trembles slightly.

"Now!"

Roan quickly plunges his left foot into the staff.

Boom!

Seriously.

With a loud bang, your left foot digs into the single phase.

The scepter slashes through the space and slaps Brian's wooden edge.

Boom!

Once again, a noise erupted.

Brian's wooden sword bursts out everywhere.

We were unable to resist Roan's attack because the Mana flow had been cut off for a while.

Roan shoves his neck back.

Phew!

The end of the staff slams Brian's abdomen.

At the same time, a stalk of Mana digs into him.

Pa!

Ronan's mana roams through Brian's manaroed.

Thanks to this, Brian's mana, which had bounced around for a while, returned to Manaho without regrouping.

“Cough!”

Brian falls flat on his chest.

Boom.

Sitting on his knees.

“Cough! Cough. ”

I vomited dry cough several times.

Roan stares at Brian's body, thirsty.

‘Whew. Luckily it calmed down. ’

A sigh of relief passed.

Ronan's mana, which was exploring Brian's body, was disappearing naturally.

Phew!

Roan sticks his neck in front of his feet.

“Cough!”

Brian coughs and looks at Roan with a rotten face.

The frenzy that filled my face disappeared.

“I'm sorry. ”

Brian knew exactly what he was doing.

He bows his head.

Roan smiles faintly at his appearance.

“Student from Miles. I think.......”

Soft voice.

“I don't think we should use that Mana method. ”

I can't be sure, but Brian's growth identity seems to lie in the damn Mana Act that the talents of the kingdom put together.

‘The Mana in the body does not flow naturally and is bouncing off gradually. Obviously not normal. ’

When I put all the good stuff together, I had an unexpected problem.

“And……"

Roan taps his armor.

“Be sure to have your armor ready next time. The fundamentals are always the most important. ”

He takes a long breath and steps back.

Somehow I didn't feel clean.

"I thought you were helping me. Why are you so upset? ’

He shakes his head and looks at the students.

Students were half mesmerized by Roan's victory.

The same was true of the Academy professors.

There was a breathtaking silence.

Finally, Roan opens his mouth, smiling awkwardly first.

“The duel is over. ”

Then a low elasticity burst from everywhere.

“Ah!”

“Wow…"

Elasticity soon turned into screaming.

“Waaaahhhh!”

“Awesome!”

“Hey, what's the last skill? ”

“What about that stew earlier? ”

A clapping sound erupts.

"Roan Tail! Roan Tail!"

"Roan! Roan!"

Roan glances at you, smiling and raising his hand.

‘Is this really the end…..’

I feel like I've had a long day.

Roan greets Ramble, who was on one side of the platform, slightly and moves on.

Then.

“Te, Baron Tail! ”

I hear Brian's voice.

Roan stands at the end of the statue and turns his head to look at him.

Brian is still on his knees.

His expression is dull and lonely.

“Do me a favor. ”

Strong voice.

It was a desperate voice at the same time.

Brian sets his hands on the ground.

He looks at Roan's eyes and speaks.

“Take me with you! ”
