A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy

Chapter 16

16 – Adaptation (3)

I was just eating, but a sparring was suddenly concluded.

The other side expressed their dissatisfaction first, so this side responded, but something is strange.

Wouldn’t it be a jousting battle? Given the circumstances, it is not possible for Rod, the president, to step forward directly.

I have to follow the storyline anyway, whether I like it or not, so I guess I should think of it as taking a picture of my eyes.

I also need to figure out how strong my power is. It was the first time I faced a person who was not a monster or beast.

“I beg you, but killing is absolutely not allowed. Do you understand?”

“f*ck (okay).”

“Student Ellie says she considers her to be her own kind, but she’s worried.”

When I arrived at the gymnasium and was preparing for the sparring, Rod asked me to trust him.

Looks like you’re very worried that I might kill Erwin. I understand.

Still, I feel like I’ve really become an idiot when I emphasize it while gesturing. Even if you nod your head, keep asking.

‘But why are people flocking here?’

United Academy has a separate building for the gymnasium. It is more like a stadium than a gymnasium.

It was originally intended for events during or after the entrance exam. The entrance exam is over, so it will be used in sparring.

It is often used even if it is not an event. There is no training that can improve your skills like sparring.

However, I know that there are very few people watching, that is, the audience, unless it is a couple of well-known students.

‘There’s something to see. Is it because of that man?’

I looked at the crowd of spectators in the stands. I don’t know why, but people flocked to me while I was preparing.

There’s no way rumors will spread throughout the academy in that short amount of time, and a guy named Alvin is probably the main cause.

‘It doesn’t matter.’

All I have to do is deal with people. There is only that.

In order to do so, I must prepare myself. I followed the road’s guidance and listened to various explanations.

If the opponent faints, that’s it. Killing is absolutely forbidden. If there is any sign of killing, he will do it himself, etc.

If you think about it, this person also seems to be kind to me. Does he feel like he got caught in a car he was bored with?

“Choose a weapon you like.”

“Oh…”

I admired the iron weapons hanging from the weapon holders.

Until now, I had only used stone axes or stone spears, but seeing iron weapons gave me a new feeling.

Can that weapon really withstand my magic? The stone ax and stone spear were destroyed unconditionally once used as if they were disposable.

“If you’re in trouble, why don’t you try using a sword?”

A rod subtly recommending a sword. It seems that he is a swordsman himself.

But I can only swing or stab. Therefore, a blunt weapon or a spear is much more comfortable.

At this, I easily ignored the load who quietly pushed out a sword and picked up a one-handed ax and a spear of appropriate size.

“Sorry. You don’t know the coolness of a sword?”

Then the rod reacted slightly sullenly. Why are old people like this?

‘Can I take some more?’

I want to take this or that weapon, just in case. It is to utilize one of the techniques, throwing.

So, just as I was about to pack some more weapons, the road next to me stopped me with a stern voice.

“No. You can only carry two weapons.”

“f*ck (why)?”

“The rules… It doesn’t make any sense to explain it. Anyway, it doesn’t work.”

Rather than explaining, he shook his head and expressed his disapproval.

I don’t know what the rules are, but I can’t help it. That’s enough.

“Maybe I have a habit of collecting them.”

No. I’m just curious about iron weapons.

“I beg you again, but you must never kill him. He is definitely not a prey. Got it?”

“f*ck (yeah).”

“I accepted it because I was curious about your skills, but it seems like I did something stupid…”

If you’re going to regret it, do it sooner. I’m just making you suffer.

I grunted inwardly and followed the road ahead. It was decided that he would be the referee for this match.

It’s unexpected because he’s a nobleman who eats popcorn in the crowd in the game. I don’t know what you’re thinking.

-Is that the guy?

– I guess so? Aren’t you from the Hwan Empire?

-The first time I saw it, it was wild itself. It looks like you got a haircut.

After everything was ready, I walked to the center of the arena, and I heard all sorts of voices in my ears.

The songs of birds and the cries of grass insects are different from the forest where they are in harmony, but it is very different.

Once in a while, gossip was mixed in and I felt uncomfortable. Even if you don’t want to, you hear it all because of your excellent physical abilities.

As I followed Rod without saying a word, I could see Alvin approaching from the other side.

The outfit is different from what we saw earlier, and it’s a comfortable outfit for activities. He had a handsome face, so he looked good no matter what he was wearing.

‘I use the sword as I remember.’

The sword itself looks normal. However, what technique he uses is more important than the sword.

I am strong only in hardware, but very poor in internal capacity. It is said that you can never be relieved.

“As you know, killing is prohibited. If there is any sign of that, I will take immediate action.”

“Okay.”

“Sivar Jane too…”

Okay. Got it.

He said the same thing at the level of nagging, so I heard it with one ear and passed it off with the other.

Right now, the priority is to figure out the other party. If Elvin is great, she’s a pretty useful character.

Even if it’s still mediocre, you shouldn’t be vigilant.

Wheek!

While standing there dumbfounded, Rod took a few steps back and whistled hard.

There must be a whistle, but I don’t know why they bother whistling. It’s really a person you don’t know even if you know.

“I don’t like savages, but now even wild people creep in… I don’t know what the president is thinking.”

“?”

Are you telling me to listen? I tilted my head at Erwin’s murmur.

Looking at the expression full of dissatisfaction, it’s not a friendly look at all.

“Is the United Academy coming to an end? Seeing even those who are less human than the fundamentals are trying to enter.”

“··· ···”

“I’m not a monster, why are my eyes so red… Are they really human?”

Hey, mister. Even if I mumble, I can hear everything.

If you’re going to say it, say it a little quieter. Are you telling me to listen?

Anyway, after talking about prestige, it seems that pride is really great.

While she was contemplating whether she had any room left to rehabilitate, Elvin put on a serious expression and began to stance her.

Ferocious momentum simmering at the same time. Even if I don’t have wild instincts, I can tell that momentum is directed at me.

Since we broke up the dispute over there first, we should respond here as well. I frowned and went into action.

Pain!

The way she suddenly threw the spear she was holding in her right hand. I threw lightly on purpose.

When I threw his spear without warning, Erwin was greatly taken aback, but quickly turned his body to avoid it.

Crack!

The spear flew far away and stuck into the wall. It did not explode because it was thrown only with pure power without containing magic power.

The only thing left now is the ax in my left hand. The ax will be used as a weapon.

I want to throw down the ax and fight with my bare hands, but it’s a waste to reveal my bottom line.

Seeing!

Meanwhile, Elvin ran up to me and cut her sword diagonally. Judging by the sound of the wind cutting, it seems that one skill is outstanding.

It’s not bad to end the fight quickly, but we plan to check Alvin’s skills.

So, while avoiding Elvin’s colorful attacks, I retreated behind her.

Shaak!

A horizontal slash attack can be avoided by taking a step back.

Shh!

A slashing attack was avoided by turning the body.

As for the other attacks, I evaded all of them with minimal movements.

‘It’s slow.’

Alvin’s attack is neat. But she is honest and slow. By my standards anyway.

The movements are not big and there are no gaps. It’s just slow enough that you can see it and avoid it.

At least, even the snakes that live in the forest of chaos are agile enough to activate their wild instincts.

‘It’s true that the technology is excellent.’

It’s just slow by my standards, but the technology itself is excellent. First of all, as I said before, the attack is clean.

That means the sword doesn’t shake. There is almost no shaking when cutting diagonally, horizontally, or stabbed.

On the other hand I?

It’s because the overwhelming specs cover it, but it’s infinitely lacking compared to Alvin.

For now, I only focus on avoiding, so it won’t be revealed, but the moment I attack, my weakness will be exposed.

“Whoa…”

The merciless attack of Alvin stopped. Judging by the hardened expression on her face, she must have sensed something was wrong.

Since the attack has stopped on the other side, this side will have to step in now.

I walked forward before he could catch his breath.

Jeobeok- Jeobeok- Jeobeok-

As I slowly approached Alvin, he was very tense even as he caught his breath.

Judging from the fact that both hands hold the sword tightly, it seems to be waiting for its turn to counterattack at any time.

But I didn’t take any action. Even though he could see Alvin right in front of his nose.

“··· ···”

“······What are you doing?”

Kaang!

Of course, that doesn’t mean they don’t attack. To induce distraction.

Before Alvin could get her question out of her mouth, I swung her ax up from under her.

It was her random swing without any preparation, but it should be much faster than Elvin’s attack.

“Keuugh…!”

Surprised, Elvin hurriedly raised her sword to block it. Normally, the sword would break, but it is fine.

It may have been that it strengthened its durability by putting magical energy into it. However, the shock itself could not withstand it, and he was pushed back.

I lowered my stance, bending my knees as Elvin was pushed away. Eventually, when Alvin stopped, he kicked her foot hard.

Boom!

My body jumps forward quickly due to the strong recoil. At the same time, the distance between him and Alvin was shortened in an instant.

I hit the ax that I was holding in my left hand just like before. The point of attack is precisely Alvin’s head.

The power will be much stronger than before. If you block it with a sword, the weapon will shatter.

I wonder if Alvin had a premonition that it would be a big trouble if he took my attack as it is. She moved her body hastily.

She thought it was not enough to just move her body, so she threw her body aside.

Booung!

The ax slices through empty space. The attack failed, but it’s not too bad.

It’s nothing more than a check anyway. Attacking her head was a habit, so it couldn’t be helped.

Tadat-

After touching the ground with his empty right hand, he turned around and put both feet on the ground.

Compared to the attack while throwing the body, the landing is as soft as a feather. I straightened up and looked at Alvin.

She is perplexed as she never expected to be pushed back like this. She looks completely incredulous.

She didn’t block the attack, she dodged it all. One more drink, my attack was dodged by flying her body.

It is technology, it is nabal, and there is an overwhelming difference from the specifications.

“······What a beast indeed.”

I know. But since I live in the forest, I couldn’t help it.

Because large monsters such as Mankey often appear here, nimbleness is essential.

Since you get seriously injured in one mistake, you have no choice but to improve your body movements.

“··· ···”

Elvin glared at me as if she wasn’t attacking and she was waiting for the right moment. Her two hands hold her sword firmly.

It seems like he’s trying to counterattack when I made the same attack as before.

Are you really treating me like an animal? I understand, but you need to tell me.

It’s true that he lived like an animal, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have thoughts.

Boom!

Without delay, I swung the ax as I did before.

Even though the distance closed in an instant, Alvin remained calm.

Ssiik-

Then Alvin gives her a smile of conversion. She looks like she got it right.

Then he moved her foot gently to her right. For a short time, Alvin disappeared from my sight.

Seeing-

Instead of that, the sharp blade of the sword is approaching my face.

This is a method that reverses the charge of the beast. It’s a tactic I often use.

If we continue like this, the blade will cut our face. There is a ‘Steel King’ trait, but I don’t know.

So.

Quack!

Bite it with strong teeth. It’s a bonus that he protected it with magic so he wouldn’t get hurt.

“What…!”

Her stance collapses as Elvin is carried away. Because the speed of the rush was the same.

Even after landing on the floor, she did not remove the sword from her mouth. Seeing me like that, Alvin’s expression was quite worth seeing.

From noble mtl dot com

“This, this beast…!”

Elvin struggles to get her sword out somehow. But my teeth are stronger than that.

The wild is where you have to use your teeth. I used it when my limbs were broken.

Occasionally, there were cases where my teeth were pulled out or broken, but they all recovered every time. Thanks to that, I was able to use it with peace of mind.

Awesome!

“Uh…”

Are you asking too hard? An ominous sound is heard from Elvin’s sword.

Elvin also paused giving her powers and stared blankly at the sight.

It’s going to break anyway, so I bit harder.

Kwajik!

A sparring sword that breaks beautifully. Even though it would have been made of steel, it was destroyed too easily.

I just need to consider that you blocked my attack just now. Maybe that’s when the durability went down.

“Two.”

I spit out all the metal pieces in my mouth. Alvin looked at me alternately with the sword whose middle part was completely destroyed.

It’s a look that I can’t tell if this is a dream or reality. What I have to do is to make him realize that it is real.

Tup!

“Keuk!”

While he was caught off guard, he ran fast and grabbed him by the neck. Startled, he struggles to escape.

Looking at the aura felt in his hand, it seems that he is trying to use his magic power. In response, he threw it hard to the ground without delay.

A choke slam that can only be seen in wrestling. Of course, but I never learned.

Kooung!

“Creepy!”

If you fall from your back, it becomes difficult to breathe, even temporarily. Seeing that Alvin’s eyes were wide open, it was clear.

Because I threw it away before protecting the inside with magic, it would be difficult to move.

All that remains is to deliver the final blow.

Aww!

“Kuuu…!”

I held Alvin’s neck tightly so he couldn’t move. And she raised her ax from that position.

If you hit it like this, Elvin’s head will split in two. I won’t really hit you.

“That’s it.”

Just before she struck her ax down, she heard a familiar voice. Feeling an unknown force, I instinctively stopped.

Then, when she raised her head, there was a road standing there, not knowing when it had arrived.

I had a gentle smile, but I felt an unknown pressure.

“I said killing is forbidden. I hope you understand what I mean.”

“··· ···”

I know. I took a sneaky look.

I want to hit at least one, but I can’t and it’s ambiguous. If you openly curse in front of people, you should be right.

Sug-

It was when I was just staring at you with the ax held up. Rod pulled something out of his pocket and held it out to me.

Looking over there, he sees a brown candy in his hand. It said it tasted like scorched rice, but it was really delicious candy.

My instincts shouted, probably because I had tasted it once before. Eat it now and feel happy.

My mouth is salivating, and the ax that I have lifted up is slowly going down.

The strength of her hand that was holding Alvin’s neck gradually diminished.

Hwiik-

Rod threw a candy lightly as if I thought I was out of the battle.

The candy flies right into my face in a parabolic arc.

I immediately opened my mouth and took the candy into my mouth.

Nurungji-flavored candy’s unique sweetness and savory flavor spreads throughout your mouth.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes, yes. I’m fine.”

When he was feeling a little happiness with just one candy, Rod stood up Alvin.

Elvin looked back and forth between her half-broken sword and me with her fish-eyed expression. She still seems incredulous.

“I know you lost, but I hope you keep what I said earlier.”

“··· ···”

At Rod’s words, Alvin looked at me. I gulped down the candy and looked at him.

It is a complex looking face in many ways. It must have been natural since he was overwhelmingly defeated by some kind of beast.

Moreover, he showed an incredible eccentricity, breaking a steel sword with his teeth.

Would he really apologize to me? There is a high probability that he will do it because there is a person next to him who is equivalent to the president.

“·······Sorry.”

As expected, Alvin lowered her head and apologized.

But, as if something came to mind, he raised his head and asked Rod.

“But do you understand me?”

“I don’t know. But I’ll remember later.”

“··· ···”

It’s an expression of embarrassment. Still, he bowed his head and apologized to me once again.

Even if I don’t understand it, there are many people who see it. Even the people who have gathered to watch it right now are densely packed.

“Give me some candy just in case. Then I might recognize you as a nice person.”

“This is…”

“Nurungji flavored candy.”

Rod handed Alvin one of her scorched rice-flavored candies. Naturally, Alvin was confused.
