The Standard of Reincarnation Episode 55
Aslan abandoned Feilker’s last name and created Adenka.
And 500 years passed.
‘In the end, Adenka and Feilker also remained.’
If so, there might have been a record that originally Aslan had a surname of ‘Failker’, but there was no such record.
Just as Daven’s correct record was gone, so was Feilker’s record.
‘Do you really not remember anything?’
-yes. Didn’t you see your brother in vain? Why didn’t I see Sir Merlin?
Julian couldn’t remember the Merlin he had seen that day.
I wondered if this was also artificially interfered with by someone.
Vincent stared at Merlin blankly.
“Why is that?”
“No, because Sir Merlin is a greater person than I thought.”
“It’s not that great. I’m just a soldier carrying out my family’s orders.”
Vargon cleared his throat.
“Anyway, I will register Sir Merlin as the official teacher of Cadet Vincennes. It will take effect from tomorrow.”
Vinchen nodded.
Yulian still didn’t seem to realize it.
-Oh my God, one of the 12 swords in the former squadron claimed to be your brother’s teacher.
Vinchen, still a senior, reached out to Merlin.
“It is an honor to meet you as a teacher.”
“no. Thank you for remembering my name.”
And the day passed.
Vinchen, who was sleeping, opened his eyes to the sharp death.
I hurriedly moved my body to dodge the blade.
hooked!
A sharp blade stabbed the bed.
Vincen said with respect.
“It’s been hot since day one.”
There was no voice or face of the intruder.
The dormitory was so peaceful that it was hard to believe that there had just been a sword attack.
No answer came.
-Brother, this attack can’t be…
Vinchen nodded.
‘okay.’
This must have been Merlin.
Vincent fell asleep again.
– Do you fall asleep again after being attacked like that?
‘I should sleep.’
That way, you can recover your physical strength and be able to start training in the morning.
– Then what if another attack comes?
‘If Sir Merlin really tried to stab me, I couldn’t avoid it even with my eyes wide open.’
-That’s true.
‘After all, what Sir Merlin wanted to see from me on the first day was whether I could make a proper decision after an ambush and regain my composure and rest.’
– I know with my head.
What you know in your head and what you can actually do are two different things.
Yulian laughed and laughed.
-No matter how much it is…
It’s actually because Vinchen fell asleep within a few seconds.
-What kind of world did you live in? Like a crazy old man…
How could he fall asleep right after being attacked by an ambushes?
It was said that being forced to sleep was also an area of training, but I didn’t know there would be a human who showed it so well in real life.
Fortunately, there was no further ambush and the morning sun was bright.
* * *
Private training room.
Vinchen met Merlin there.
The two did not say a word about the early morning raid.
As if we made a promise to each other.
“Adenka’s swordsmanship is so diverse and excellent that even I can’t understand it, but it is largely divided into 7 swords.”
Adenka Swordsmanship was a martial arts that dealt with 7 tricks.
Jeong (正) Medium (重) Kwae (快) Hwan (幻) Width (爆) Point (尖).
These six were the basics, and
in addition to them, there was a yeonhwan (連環).
“I don’t know if you know it, but the sword I handle is the Yeonhwan Sword.”
Merlin’s nickname was Gore.
He was a swordsman who used the ‘Yeonhwan Sword’ among Adenka swordsmen.
Vincent’s heart pounded.
‘This is the sword Aslan left behind in Adenka.’
Aslan continued.
“The characteristics of the natural world are applied and used in the Adenka test.”
“Among many characteristics, the swordsmanship that combines the characteristics of the natural world is expressed as a Yeonhwan sword.”
“Yes.”
“Master is using brain power.”
“Yes. Which of the six swords do you most want?”
“I want a straight sword.”
A straight sword is a sword that doesn’t have that great of a characteristic.
It’s not as powerful as the heavy sword, and it’s not as fast as the quick sword.
It is not as flashy as the Hwansword, does not have the mass killing power of the explosive sword, and does not have the penetrating power of the pointed sword.
“A straight sword is a sword that is neither one nor the other.”
“So everything will be harmonious.”
Vincent asked.
“Master, what type of swordsmanship are you using as your body swordsman?”
“It’s a straight sword.”
Vincen laughed.
“I will humbly learn.”
Merlin liked Vinchen’s attitude.
Jeonggeom had no special features, but it was also the most basic swordsmanship.
‘Usually at that age, children avoid regular inspection.’
Merlin continued, hiding a happy heart.
“In order to learn Adenka’s technique, you must learn Adenka’s breathing and create images.”
“…”
In fact, this was the most challenging.
Vinchen had no intention of creating images.
It is true that it is a very efficient study, but it has clear limitations.
“Do I really have to make images?”
“The Adenka method was designed and developed that way.”
“What will happen if you operate the Adenka Census without Adenka’s breathing and imagery?”
“The Adenka sword ceremony is the martial arts of ascension. It is very dangerous if used without the aid of imagery theory.”
The lower level of martial arts poses no danger even if used incorrectly.
Because there wasn’t much detail involved in the first place.
However, if the martial arts of the ascending state are used incorrectly, serious injury or danger to the body may result.
The ‘depth of martial arts’ was also a double-edged sword.
Merlin glanced around.
I spread the feeling widely and checked to see if there were people around.
After confirming that no one was there, he opened his mouth.
“But images do not exist for me.”
Vincent opened his eyes wide.
“To be known to the world…”
“Yes, an 8-star soldier.”
It was so known to the world.
“no way…!”
“Do you have any tips?”
“there is.”
Merlin looked at Vincen with curious eyes.
“What is it?”
“Isn’t Master also creating and operating virtual images?”
“…”
Merlin was speechless for a while.
That’s right.
‘I knew… did you?’
In fact, Merlin was an unmanned man with a very late start.
Vinchen was not able to create images at all, and Merlin was a constitution in which imagery was not properly operated.
‘I realized this method at the age of 20.’
Until then, it was just an ordinary soldier.
By the time he turned 20, his friend Railsa had already raised his name, and Merlin hadn’t.
That’s why Merlin started late.
Now, more than 20 years have passed.
He was called the warrior of the 8th star, and the rail company was still staying at the 7th star.
“When did you learn about imaginary images?”
“Not too long ago.”
“Do you know how to create imaginary images?”
“yes.”
“Show me.”
By stimulating the thunderstorm giant’s protection, Vinchen drew out the microcurrent characteristics.
In the process, a virtual image in the form of a ‘triangle’, which is most advantageous for the expression of microcurrent characteristics, was created.
Merlin recognized it immediately.
“Did you compose a triangular image?”
“That’s right.”
“why?”
“Because it is the most advantageous form for expressing [microcurrent characteristics].”
Merlin admired inwardly.
‘What I barely found out when I was 20…’
This child had already figured it out and was operating it.
“Do you know anything else?”
“We also know that the characteristics of the microcurrent change little by little depending on the shape of the image.”
A triangular image was transformed by adding strokes to it.
An image in the form of a rectangle.
Then, the color of the current changed to blue.
“This way, the power is reduced, but it has the characteristics of spreading farther.”
“….”
This was what Merlin was capable of at the age of 22.
‘This child…’
Who called Vinchen ugly?
It was very different from what was known to the world.
‘It’s a genius.’
Not many people knew how to do this.
As far as Merlin knew, it was only Merlin himself and the old man who had taught him this method.
Merlin doesn’t even know the old man’s name.
I only see him as a teacher.
‘I barely finished it with the help of the old man.’
I checked again.
“Have you awakened yourself?”
“That’s right.”
It is said that the earlier you learn martial arts, the better.
There is an expression that one year of childhood equals 10 years of adulthood.
Vincen is now only fourteen.
After Merlin learned how to create imaginary images, it took another two years to transform them.
‘What I did at twenty-two, Vincen did at fourteen. That too myself.’
What does this mean?
“It wasn’t luck that I overcame Samion, it was inevitable.”
Merlin’s heart began to beat as well as Vincen’s.
* * *
Six months have passed since Vincen was assigned a teacher.
In the meantime, Vincen has solidified his position as a representative cadet.
The Red Fort’s mission statement was delivered to him.
“It’s about subjugating monsters…”
Selvira sat next to Vinchen.
Selvira, who gave up her position as a representative cadet, stood by Vincen and helped Vincen.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Selvira was acting as the representative cadet for the actual administrative work.
Selvira read the mission statement together.
“Um, so… A mission involving mutant goblins?”
Selvira tilted her head.
“I heard that monsters are rampaging a lot these days, so it must be real.”
“What do you mean?”
“Usually, there are very few cases where missions are handed down to us.”
Most of them said that they ended up on the 5th grade cadet line.
However, when the monsters are rampaging like this, the mission is passed on to the lower cadets.
He said it was the first time in 10 years that a 9th grade cadet was given a mission.
“Let’s see. Grade 9 Beast Mutant Goblin. And…”
Selvira’s eyes widened.
“Is it Elder Adenka who gave the mission?”
The elders were the real power that supported Adenka.
“You pointed out Vinchen yourself… and the name of the person who pointed it out was Tilovan?”
Julian interrupted.
– One of the elders who doesn’t like me.
‘Isn’t most of them like that?’
– Why do you beat me to the bone with facts?
Anyway, there was one important fact.
It is said that the elder, who was not very friendly to Vinchen, deliberately pointed out Vinchen, a 9th grade cadet, and handed over the mission.
– Now I guess I’m going to be checked or tested. In other words, the competition for the succession of Adenca began in earnest.
Then
Selvira opened her mouth.
“Hmm, I don’t want to part with Vinchen.”
“….”
“Do you have any plans to take me, Vincen?”
“doesn’t exist.”
“why? I might be of help though. Until you came, I was a promising representative student.”
“Because only my name is written on the mission statement.”
“But you can hire people and take them.”
Selvira looked a little disappointed.
“Selbyra. You are the one I trust the most among the 9th grade cadets.”
“…suddenly?”
“If I, the representative cadet, fall out, he is the only cadet who can lead the cadets instead of me.”
Vincen laughed.
Selvira’s heart is grateful, but this mission must be carried out alone.
“So please follow me, Selvira.”
Selvira’s face turned a little red.
“Heh heh. If you are, then I will.”
After escaping from Vincen’s dormitory, Selbyra hummed and went back to her bed.
She looked pretty happy.
After Selvira passed away, Vinchen continued to train with Merlin as always.
After training, Merlin asked.
“Why do you want to carry out the mission alone?”
In Merlin’s view, there was no need for Vinchen to carry out the mission alone.
It was a task that would be much easier with the help of colleagues.
“Because that’s a mutated goblin.”
“Is that the reason for your choice?”
Words that Merlin hadn’t thought of began to come out of Vinchen’s mouth.
