Asher sat still in the training ground and closed her eyes. The whole body's muscles wriggled like living things and moved on the body.

Controls the strength of the force and coordinates the state of the whole body. It brings back a sense of power.

Asher slowly raised his fist. It was at the same speed as a snail, but slowly, but surely moved toward the ground. Finally, the ground and the fist met.

Coo-oong!

The ground shakes. The sand flaps and spreads and dust rises above the ground. The people in the castle are puzzled by the unknown tremor.

"…it's awkward as expected.”

Asher opened her eyes.

He gained strength after reincarnation. I don't know if it was because I became a sodmaster or reincarnated, but I had to deal with this power.

Superpowers beyond human power, but it was very difficult to deal with.

"It's already been two years since I've had it."

Nevertheless, it was still not properly handled. The control of power was very difficult.

A transition point was needed. As soon as Asher tried to raise his fist again, the door opened with a bang.

"…Asher."

"Why?"

Asher's nonchalant answer pushed her forehead.

"You hit the floor again, didn't you?”

"You're quick-witted."

"It's weird you don't notice that. I told you to stop doing that, didn't I?

Leica gnashed her teeth.

"Do you know how surprised I was?"

"It's already dozens of times, but I'm getting used to it now."

"You're doomed."

Laika clicked her tongue.

"Stop for today. No one was surprised, but I'm afraid I'm going to ruin it."

"I'm taking that into consideration.”

"You can't even control your strength."

Laika grumbled and grabbed the sword. Rather than wielding it, he just stretched out his hands and breathed.

"How are you today?"

"As usual. It's the same as usual."

Laika frowned as if she didn't like something.

"We need a change. I think we can have a fight....”

Leica turned to Asher with sparkling eyes. Asher dismissed.

"Just call a caron, not me."

"Huh. It's already been a year. It's worth a try, isn't it?”

A year has passed since the Goblin attack. Since then, monsters have been attacking small, but not as many as Goblin did, so it was easy to stop.

Other than that, there was no big change. The biggest change was that Asher quit the battle with Reica.

"You and I. There's nothing to learn from both of us.”

The reason why he quit the fight with Reica was simple.

"Now I can't beat you."

I can't believe it's only been two years. Now it is no exaggeration to say that Caron is being played on by Leica. Whenever there was a fight, Caron's expression was vague, whether it was joy or sadness.

But Leica had a questionable face.

"I still don't think I'll beat you."

"If it's real, it's a different story."

He also gained a great deal of power that was not in his previous life. If we really fight for each other's lives, he'll get through it.

But in terms of swordsmanship, he couldn't beat Leica anymore.

"You crossed the line.”

What Asher can win is a below-scaled sword. And Leica goes beyond that.

"Even if you ask me to deal with Karen... He seems to have a lot of worries these days, so it's hard to touch him. I'm talking to my parents. Phew."

Laika clicked her tongue.

"That's enough. I'll just have to get a feel for myself."

Laika grabbed the sword and closed her eyes. She hasn't wielded a sword in the past few days. He was just quietly coordinating his condition like that.

"I don't know. I think it's going to work, but it's not going to work. I have a headache…."

'It's amazing every time I see it.’

Asher knew what Leica was doing now. It was a kind of stagnation, a slump.

Some of his close friends experienced low conditions. Everyone had spent the night drinking with their heads in knots.

And the moment I fell, I became a sodmaster.’

It was the speed comparable to other heroes. She was slower than Le Penia, but she was an exception in Le Penia. It's been only a year since I caught the sword, and I've become a sodmaster without a state of stagnation. Lephenia was the norm among heroes.

Swordmaster.

where he had spent his whole life barely reached the end of his life, in just two years.

The door opened while Asher admired Leica. A woman came in and leaned over.

"Laika, Asher. Excuse me."

"What's going on?"

"The lord calls you."

"Well...okay."

Laika followed the girl's footsteps.

***

"What?"

Upon arriving at Rebecca, she shined her eyes. She asked back with frightened eyes.

"Is that true?"

"Yes."

Rebecca clenched her fist with joy, with Rebecca nodding her head.

"Thank you, Father!"

"Because times have changed."

This is the age of war. The monsters returned, and they did not discriminate between men and women.

"I'm familiar with it from Caron. I told you you had a gift for swordsmanship. I think it would be better to save it."

Rebek is an outsider in swordsmanship, but both Charon and Haiban admired Leica. I didn't mean to rot it as the times were the times.

"Don't worry about the territory. Luke has come to his senses, and the soldiers have been strengthened... It wouldn't be a big problem if you weren't there."

"Thank you!"

"Yes, be ready. It won't take that long.”

"Yes!"

Laika went out in a flap. There was someone who wanted to let the news out first. She ran to the training camp, opened the door and shouted.

"Asher."

"What is it?"

Asher answered calmly. She smiled and stretched her arms.

"I'm going to the Academy!"

"…what?"

Asher paused. Leica said with excitement.

"What do you think! It's an academy! The place in the capital where most of the Sodmasters, who produced the great swordsmen, graduated!"

Leica mumbled with a hazy face.

"I can't believe I'm going to a place like that.”

"Well."

The academy was definitely a good place. I was able to meet a lot of people and grow up to compete with them.

But Asher was a subtle response.

"What's wrong with the reaction?"

"Can you learn something?"

"Of course!"

Leica grabbed the sword with an excited face.

"It's a place where all the competent prosecutors gather, so of course there must be someone stronger than me!"

"Who's stronger than you?"

Asher burst into laughter.

"I don't think so."

"What are you talking about? I'm her now. Isn't a lot a given?"

Leica had never been out of this small estate. Prosecutors Cho Woo-han were Swordmasters Heiban and Asher, and top prosecutor Caron.

Asher answered roughly.

"If you do, you do.”

***

The atmosphere of the land was not bad. Luke also came to congratulate and people were happy. They were all intuitively aware that Leica was not a vile talent in such a place.

"When is the schedule?"

"One... Three days later?"

"You're so fast. Are you sixteen now?"

"That's right."

Asher was nineteen. Academy at sixteen.

"You'll be treated like an old bridge."

"Well, you're the best at learning. Ah! That's right."

Leica clapped her hands as if it was a good idea.

"Asher. Why don't you go to the Academy?"

"Academy?"

"Why. It's not bad. There's nothing else to do."

Asher grinned. Academy.

He had already graduated from the academy that Leica had gone in her previous life. It wasn't such a pleasant memory.

"I'm going to follow you."

"Oh? Well....”

"But I'm not going to the Academy."

I'll just accompany you. He and Leica had different purposes.

"I've already been granted permission from the lord. I'm leaving the territory this way."

He had his goal. the sword gate of the capital It was a year earlier than planned, but there was no big problem.

"Huh?"

Asher's words must have been unexpected, Leica stammered with a shocked face.

"…are you leaving?"

"Yes. Did you think I'd be here all my life?"

"That's not true. Hmm…."

Leica stuttered. She shook her head as if she had come to her senses.

"Yes, you should leave. That's too bad."

"We're going the same way, so we'll go together."

"Then you and Charon. Like this."

"What's your watch?"

"It's all over. Charon alone is the only security, and now I'm getting out of the land, and I'm getting used to it."

"I'm taking a good rest.”

Asher left Leica outside the training camp.

Asher picked out a quiet alleyway.

"Come out."

"You call me early.”

In the dark, Kayers, a man with a haggard face, walked. He gnashed his teeth at Asher.

"You're doomed."

"You were the one who said yes. You can't blame me.”

"Oh, my God. Why did I say that?"

Cayers regretted what he said a year ago. He pressed his eyes hard.

"This is crazy. Freaking heroes."

"After a year, I would have saved one. Tell me."

Now he leaves the estate soon. Before that, I had to know something.

"Hmm."

Cayers scratched his head with a troubled face.

"I'm sorry, but I don't have any information.”

"What?"

"Really. Not at all. Nothing. I'm sick and tired of it."

Caius waved his hand.

"I don't know if you know it, but it's not normal to have none."

"I know."

If you search for information for a year, you can get the least amount of information no matter what the quality of the information organization is. In the end, the target of information is living creatures, and living things leave a trail.

But if you didn't get anything, it was information in itself.

"We did our best, too. But it's the first request from an employer, so you shouldn't waste it. So I found the ones that were close to me first. Swordmaster Hiban, the owner of the bottom master. And Dragon Slayer."

But no information came in. Cayers frowned.

"Hi-Ban, you've been to this estate, so you'll know. He left the empire again. We don't know more than that. And the owner of the bottom master.

"The owner of the bottom won't come out."

"That's true, but we've had minimal interaction before. But I don't even have it now. I can't even see my nose in there. Above all, the Dragon Slayer is the biggest problem."

a great mercenary He killed the dragon and became lord of the count.

"Dragon Slayer has a territory. Then, of course, we need more information than the others, and that's it. We can't get to the land."

In the end, he said he knew nothing. Asher tapped on the wrist. Cayers grumbled defiantly.

"They're all heroes. They're the ones who'll keep records just by breathing."

"But nothing."

Asher closed her eyes. He thought for a moment and opened his mouth.

"Okay, that's enough."

Anyone else will meet the owner of the bottom. To be exact, we had no choice but to meet. The capital city was the home of the very bottom owner.

Then let's meet in person and find out. Caius groaned and groaned.

"I feel like it's useless for some reason. You said you were going to the Empire, right?

"Yes."

"Smoke this if you need it."

Cayers threw a paper ball. When I received it and checked, it was paper soaked in oil.

"If I smoke it, it smells like I'm the only one who can smell it. I'll be there in two days."

“…주제의 화지?”

애셔가 옅게 웃었다.

“네가 주제의 후인이었나?”

“…어?”

애셔의 중얼거림에 카이어스가 눈을 뻐끔거렸다.

“네가 그걸 어떻게…?”

“알고 있으니까.”

“아니. 어떻게 알고 있냐니까.”

"Good job. Goodbye."

"Hey!"

In defiance of his yell, Asher walked out of the alley.
