Episode 14. New talent, end-of-month evaluation, and Muan Gong
gain!
The wooden stick, loaded with strong momentum, fell down in a neat line.
As if he had trained for several years, the tip of his sword did not even shake.
“how is it?”
When I asked Nickel, who was watching me, the guy who stroked my chin soon nodded with an expression of apprehension, although he was impatient.
He had a history of being an Auror Master, so it seemed he didn’t like my swordsmanship, but from my point of view, it was a great achievement after only training for nearly a month.
It’s been 3 weeks since I used the recovery and regeneration potion.
I felt the virtue of the potion and was working hard on training every day.
And during training, he also acquired amazing abilities.

Nickel By continuing to summon, the necromancer has risen to the beginner level.
And more important than that was the fact that I had a new talent.
That, too, was a gifted talent.
‘I didn’t know that such a thing would happen.’
About a week ago, I was just in the middle of learning swordsmanship from Nickel with potions as usual.
It wasn’t that I had achieved anything great or accomplished.
-Titling!
[As a result of his endless efforts, some of Kim Jin-hwan’s talents will be inherited.]
[The talent ‘Exercise (Gifted)’ has been acquired.]
The screen that suddenly popped up blocked my view while training.
And you don’t know how surprised I was after checking the contents.
First of all, it was a talent that there was no other line to skip anything from the content to the grade.
‘Exercise’
was an A-level talent.
The shorter the content, the better.
If it’s something like “exercise, running,” among sports, then it’s a C-class talent.
‘I knew I had talent in my previous life, but seeing it in person, it feels like a great ability.’
Due to the evolution of potion-making talent, I felt a while ago that there is a huge gap between even the smallest talent, but I was a gifted talent.
Well, at least that much would have been enough to survive in the unit.
It’s not that I did my military service without any obstacles for nothing.
Thanks to that, as soon as I inherited my talent, my swordsmanship skills improved.
Even though it had only been three weeks since he started taking the potion, he was able to wield the sword quite convincingly.
‘Now, if you just wake up a new mana… ….’
Those who have already awakened to mana once, their paths diverge depending on the place of the first awakening of mana.
Those who learn magic have a mana store in their heart, and knights have a store under their belly button called Danjeon.
Depending on this location, it was divided into whether to use magic or a sword, and there was no way to change the location of the storage once created.
But I had the characteristics of a dual core.
‘I can use magic and I can use a sword.’
Of course, I’m not the only one who can use both with the same probability as a kind of mutation.
However, most of those who had such a possibility ended their lives after mastering only one without knowing that they had an unusual constitution.
It was strange to try to do both in a world where it was possible to try only one in the first place.
If you already know like me or have a blank head, give it a try.
Anyway, it was a day that I was looking forward to because I thought if I did a little more, I would have a cut off.
“I have to stop here for today.”
I finished training earlier than usual.
Nickel stopped swinging his stick and approached with a tilt of his head.
“I have a midterm evaluation tomorrow. I don’t know what kind of test it is, but I should take a break.”
While other major subjects had evaluations next week, the first announcement was for combat magic, which was evaluated tomorrow.
I didn’t know what I was going to do when I went to the Engineering Department, but I hoped that it would be an easy assignment.
* * *
To say that the site of Rodlenn Academy is huge is not enough.
First of all, in the east, there was Monas Academy, an academy attached to and subordinate to Rodlen Academy, with a total of 1,000 students.
A living space and educational space for 1,000 students were needed, and various other facilities such as a training center, a training center, a research building, a collection building, and a breeding building existed.
And in the full-fledged Rodlen Academy, there were facilities almost 10 times the size of Monas.
There was a separate mini-mana train operating only inside the academy, from educational facilities and living spaces, entertainment spaces, and forests where all kinds of ecosystems live and breathe to the site of the secret Rodlen Magic Tower.
Since it was such a large place, the physical distance between the Faculty of Knights and the Faculty of Magic was inevitably far, even though they were inside the same academy.
The only opportunities for exchange were living spaces and entertainment spaces visited during non-lecturing hours.
“ha.”
Yurihi clicked her tongue and watched as Diene sighed with a flushed face like a girl lost in a dream.
“Do you really like going to the Knights Faculty?”
“huh? No, am I okay?”
“Wipe your mouth and speak.”
Diene hurriedly fumbled with her lips at Urich’s words.
“I’m kidding. Do you believe that?”
“It was bad.”
“I should have just seen your expression. Did you really think you were going to drool?”
As Diene feigned pouting and looked out the window of the mana train, Urich apologized and begged for a hand.
In the end, the male students in the same car were admiring Diene’s smile and looked sideways.
“ah. It reminded me of engineering department, but didn’t Carlos oppa come to this year-end event?”
“uh. They say they’ll come this time.”
“Oh, would you like our Diane? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the face of the oppa I love so much?”
“What are you talking about? What do I like about that ogre?”
“Hehe. Our Diane is really disingenuous.”
“Aww. I can’t hear you!”
After teasing Diene, who covered her ears and shook her head, with a smile on her face for a while, Yurihi’s gaze turned to the back of a male student’s head.
“Diene Diene.”
“Why again?”
“Have you heard the rumors lately?”
“What other rumors?”
“They say there’s been an odd magician working out lately.”
“Why is exercise so geeky? I exercise too. Professor Tolman said that too. If you don’t just study as a magician, you should develop your stamina through exercise so that you can avoid a crisis even in a really emergency situation.”
“No, you say you do sports like real knights do instead of those kinds of exercises?”
“okay? Well, if it becomes a rumor, I guess it’s not at a decent level?”
“uh. But do you know who the rumor is about?”
Diene looked sideways and followed Urich’s gaze as he spoke.
There, a figure with long hair that still bothered him was immersed in a book, as if cut off from the world.
“Adrias?”
“Ding dong deng! That is the correct answer.”
“Hey, let’s not talk. I have no interest in him.”
“Hehe, even Diene, the lover of knights in the world, refuses!”
“What are you talking about? why is he a knight If all you do is exercise and become a knight, there will be no one in the world who is not a knight.”
Diene, grumbling like that, secretly tried to check the book Adrias was reading.
Fortunately, in the seat next to him, several books he had brought were piled up.
‘Definition and understanding of the basic mana arrangement of magic and the use of basic formulas? Why are you reading that?’
My head tilted toward the basic books that I wanted to cover at Monas Academy.
I thought I was reading something a little difficult the other day. What is it?
“No, by the way, don’t you think things have changed?”
“what? Adrias? Well, I’m not interested.”
“No, it’s because I heard you exercise, but your body.”
At Yurihi’s words, her gaze returned without realizing it.
Are you sure your body is a little stiff?
Of course, I heard the story.
In the first place, he was wearing a magician’s robe, so his body shape was not revealed well.
“Last time, you whipped up a new potion, and this time you suddenly started exercising and you finally got some iron?”
“If you’re that interested, why don’t you confess?”
“I? What about Adrias? Fuha ahahahahaha!”
All the students on the train stared at Yuri at the sudden loud explosion.
Diene was filled with shame, but she pretended to be unconcerned and looked out the window with dignity.
“iced coffee. sorry. I suddenly had a funny thought to myself.”
After apologizing gracefully and looking away, Urihi called to Diene, who was looking out the window.
Diene, as if she had never looked out the window before, calmly resumed her posture.
“Diene, I thought you would joke like that.”
“Isn’t that a joke? If you’re that interested, date me. Our academy always supports healthy dating.”
“no way. Does anyone have anything to spoil the wedding road? If rumors spread that you were dating Adrias, your life as a woman would be over from that moment on?”
“Look at that though. I still seem to be living hard while reading books, but I may have grown up just like you said.”
“sorry. Diene. I won’t mess around again. Please don’t mess with Adrias.”
Just in time, the Mana Train sounded announcing the arrival.
“This station is the Auckland Training Center Station. After stopping for 3 minutes, we depart for the next station Rios Dormitory.”
When the broadcast sound ended, Professor Tolman, who was sitting in the front seat, stood up.
“Please prepare to get off. Im here.”
After his words, a strange atmosphere began to permeate the inside of the train.
The students hardened their expressions and put a lot of energy into their bodies, as if they were on the battlefield.
“Oh oh. The atmosphere is bloody?”
“I guess so.”
knights and wizards.
The story of who is stronger among the two has been a topic that has continued from the beginning of the history of this world to the present.
In terms of talent, it was harder to become a wizard, so wizards had a sense of privilege without knowing or knowing, and in the case of knights, wizards without physical mortification were called saengnim and ignored.
Their rivalry was quite strong because they tended to subtly ignore each other.
This became the reason for the division of factions not only in the academy, but also in society as a whole, and it also became the beginning of a struggle for rights.
When the train finally stopped and the door opened, the 3rd year students of the Faculty of Magic began to get off, led by Professor Tolman.
There were already students from the Faculty of Engineers waiting there, and they were emitting tremendous energy as if they were about to fight.
The professor in charge of the Faculty of Knights was also watching the Faculty of Magic approaching with an arrogant expression, as if he had no intention of stopping it.
It was then.
“haha! Tolman! How have you been?”
“Your Highness Cloche!”
A completely unexpected person came out of the Knights Faculty waving his hand.
The Faculty of Magic students who saw him, as well as Professor Tolman, were frightened and approached quickly.
A man of the size of a beast with red hair stretching out in all directions grabbed Tolman’s hand and tapped him on the shoulder.
“It’s been a while, Tolman. Almost a year!”
“Your Highness, have you been well?”
“of course. I’m glad you look healthy too.”
At the sudden appearance of Duke Cloche, the students of the Faculty of Magic looked at him with their mouths open.
Even Diene, the daughter of the duke, looked at him in amazement.
No matter how fierce the fight between wizards and knights was, few wizards dared to ignore the Aura Master.
“But what’s going on here… …?”
“Oh, I came to meet someone for a while. Now that my business is over, I was going to see old Alven, but I heard that you were coming here and waited.”
“okay. It’s nice to see you after a long time.”
Just as the chatter seemed to begin, Duke Closche’s gaze turned to someone.
“hmm?”
He looked over Gingamin for a moment and then began striding toward the figure.
The students looked at him approaching with nervous hearts, but soon saw the student at the place where he stopped and couldn’t hide their wonder.
Why on earth? Not Diene Alven, the daughter of Bahat Alven?
Sinclair Cloche, duke Muan of the Cloche family, asked if he knew the feelings of such students, showing a smile revealing his teeth.
“Are you Adrias Cromwell?”
Numerous eyes were focused on Adrias, who had been asked the question.
People expected Adrias’ unsightly reaction in front of the Duke of Cloche, who felt numb just by approaching him.
Contrary to their expectations, however, Adrias looked up at the giant standing in front of him calmly and answered.
“Yes, I am Adrias Cromwell.”
