Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound Chapter 15

Episode 15 Eating alone (2)

Mansang Bookstore.

It is a large library located deep in the Baskerville family’s main castle, and its size rivals the ranking within the Empire.

“Come to think of it, this is the first time I’ve come in and seen it myself.”

Vikir passed through the entrance guarded by several knights and entered the restricted area.

When I presented the pass signed by Hugo, no one stopped me.

Some knights even gave a salute with a light smile.

Before long, Bikir stood in front of the passage leading to the depths of the Mansangseogo.

This library, made by directly drilling a hole in the black rock wall, is as deep and distant as the throat of a giant monster.

Books piled up all over the place were lined up like huge teeth, looking down at Bikir.

“I’ll have to hurry up a bit.”

Since I was alone every day, my monologue increased.

Vikir looked around the library, thinking about the remaining time.

My heart was in a hurry, but my steps and gaze moved slowly.

The smell of ink and dust that is unique to old books.

But I didn’t think it was particularly cozy.

Books discussing techniques for handling cold weapons, calculation methods for killing enemies with the shortest route, and efficient and logical murder theories.

And the library where they are tightly packed.

Numerous swordsmen from previous generations who existed in the history of the Baskervilles are engaged in a silent war of words, remaining only in theory.

Is that why?

Rather than stepping into a library, it felt like walking through the corridors of a prison where ruthless and cold homicidal maniacs are imprisoned.

I felt a stabbing gaze from the swordsmanship textbooks lined up like teeth.

And Bikir got used to all of this. The sound

of

footsteps sinking into the abyss of the hallway.

The deeper you go into the library, the older books you can see.

‘Cutting incisors’ swordsmanship, ‘Crushing molars’ swordsmanship, ‘Piercing fangs’ swordsmanship, ‘Twice-stuck double tooth’ swordsmanship, ‘Lying Wisdom Tooth’ swordsmanship… Familiar swordsmanship textbooks or swordsmanship

textbooks that I wanted to learn so much in my previous life and dared to dream of. Swordsmanship textbooks that were so strong that there were no enemies were lined up neatly like teeth.

The locks to prevent theft or thieves’ access were firmly locked.

Usually, it is difficult for collateral illegitimate children to learn swordsmanship beyond Type 4, no matter how much mana they have and how much experience they have in combat.

Direct descendents learn at least 5-level swordsmanship, and among direct descendents, elites learn 6-level swordsmanship, while Gaju and Sogaju learn 7th-level swordsmanship.

Hugo Baskerville has now mastered the 7th Baskerville, and the seven teeth he draws have made him one of the few sword masters on the continent.

As it is a rivalry with the head of the House of Morgue, known as the great wizard of the 7th circle, the inaction must be similar to some extent.

yet.

I stopped walking for a moment.

A sea of books that you can’t tell which book is in which place in the vast library.

In one of them, you can see the book Hugo gave you.

A bookshelf with several layers of locks on it, befitting a valuable collection.

When he matched the key Hugo gave him, the book hidden inside was revealed.

< Baskerville carnivore (六式) double-bite crap teeth >

Carnivorous. A book that contains noble swordsmanship that you would never have dreamed of in your previous life.

Bikir picked it up and looked it over.

According to the shape of the teeth drawn by the trajectory of the knife, the methods of cutting, stabbing, blocking, crushing, cutting, and mincing are described.

And this swordsmanship manual was discussing how to draw a total of six teeth.

Naturally, Hugo must have thought it would be unreasonable for 8-year-old Bikir to memorize them in one day.

So, with a certain amount of goodwill and a certain amount of belittling, he would have allowed Bikir to read the book on meat-eating swordsmanship.

However, Bikir is a skilled swordsman who has lived on the battlefield for 40 years of his previous life, and is a Baskerville among elite Baskervilles who has survived even after passing through the age of destruction.

Of course, he had already mastered the theories of swordsmanship from 1 to 4.

To the extent that he has already guessed and established the theory of the 5 meals, which he has not formally learned.

The time when I was stagnant because I did not know the group (Martial Law) that went up to the top of it.

The formula for rising one’s status that one longed for with a burning thirst.

“…I see. I had to cut the flow of mana once after drawing the fourth tooth. That’s why I couldn’t make the fifth tooth!”

Bikir finally felt his brain open.

Knowledge gained like sucking water It took only about 3 hours for him to understand and memorize the theory of meat eating.

Of course, it was thanks to the experience accumulated over and over while staying on 4 meals for almost 20 years.

…widely!

Having memorized the entire book, Vikir soon closed it.

It’s good to have figured out the way to go from meal 4 to meal 5 or meal 6, but in fact, that’s not the real purpose of coming here today.

Bikir returned to the very beginning of the Mansang Library.

It was a space that even the knights who stood guard and the servants who cleaned the library could pass by.

“Huh? Master. Why did you come out again?”

“What did you forget? We’ll get it for you.”

“If you’re hungry, shall we bring you a meal?

The servants talk to you kindly.

Seeing the subtle respect and fear permeated in their gaze, it seems that the rumors of this performance evaluation have already spread.

But Bikir shook his head.

” I’m done with my business.”

The servants were surprised and even the guard knights who were standing guard were surprised

. ”

Already

?”

But he looked very regretful.

He must have said that.

To see the treasure-like swordsmanship textbooks kept in the depths of the Mansang Library and just leave them after a few hours. For

anyone, they are valuable things worth reading even at the cost of their lives. It’s understandable that they were more disappointed because it’s a collection of books

. It would have been the same even if it was Bikir before the return.

But Bikir looked calm.

“I’m thinking of reading other books before I leave, so stop worrying and do what you need to do.”

At the same time, Vicky. Le headed to the shallowest floor of the Mansang Library, a place where miscellaneous books were collected.

A few knights who were shining a watchful eye looked at Bikir and whispered

. I must have memorized it like crazy.”

“Is it because I’m still young that I don’t know its value? When I get older, I will regret today for the rest of my life.”

“I should tell the other elders not to worry. It’s because they’re reading such insignificant miscellaneous books.” However, if they had seen the expression of Bikir with their backs to them, they wouldn’t have been so

thoughtless and chatty like now

.

.In this dusty bookshelf, books are arranged in a jumbled manner.

Vikir searched slowly and painstakingly,

and within a few hours he found what he was looking for. At

the edge of the library, a place that everyone can see, but everyone can pass by without thinking.

There was an old book stuck there.

It was quite dusty and seemed to have no preservation magic.

“…”

Vikir

stood for a long time, staring at the title of the book

. An old book classified as a swordsmanship

textbook .

But who in this world knows the value of this book?

Only Vikir, who lived through the age of destruction, knew.

This book is It is indeed Baskerville’s greatest treasure!

Kikik-

Bikir pulled out the book.

It did not come out well at first, as if it had been stuck in the bookshelf for a very long time.

After pulling out and putting away the few books that were blocking his way, it was pulled out with great painstaking effort and came out to the world. “…… Ambush the

lunatic.”

Bikir, who succeeded in extracting the book, carefully swiped it with his hand,

and turned the pages.

Pararak –

the pages that quickly turned.

And soon this book The reason why it was classified as a miscellaneous book has been revealed.

Torn pages can be seen in the middle of the book.

The book is sparse, as if a few teeth have been knocked out.

The torn marks are evident on every important page. Of course, the contents are also not connected.

Because of this, no one could understand the contents of this book, and as a result, it must have been classified as such an insignificant miscellaneous book,

but…

‘…I know.’

Vikir, only he memorized what was written on the torn pages of this book,

because the memories of participating in the ‘Operation to Recapture Torn Pages’ or ‘Operation to Restore Missing Teeth’

before returning were still clear in his head.

At that time, the hound that had collected all the pages that had been torn and lost across countless lines was Bikir van Baskerville!
