Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 188

The barbarians have gathered.

I don’t know where they gathered after hearing the rumor, but the number of barbarians who were only ten increased to twenty.

‘This is really dangerous.’

For me, it couldn’t have been a worse situation.

The Great Battle alone is incredibly burdensome, and there are dozens of barbarians, each with knight-level strength.

Unless hatchlings appeared, it was difficult for me to run away from them alone.

‘If the Great Master hadn’t accepted my offer, the fight would have been bloody by now.’

When I imagine that, I involuntarily shudder.

There are degrees of fighting, but fighting for life or death doesn’t suit my temperament.

I want to fight when I have the advantage.

And now the conditions were met.

Instead of being experienced warriors, both the great warrior and the warrior commander were dealing with newcomers who were no better than young chicks.

Acas! Acas! Acas!

The savages began to shout the name of the savage in front of me.

“Is Akas your name?”

“….”

He had no answer.

He was breathing heavily, probably excited for the upcoming battle.

Even though the weather wasn’t that cold, steam was rising from his body, which was wearing nothing except pants.

Whoosh whoosh!

The huge double-edged ax he was wielding swung with a menacing sound.

Seeing him completely ignoring my words and getting ready for battle, I gave up on talking to him any more.

I tried to shake my head a little to win comfortably, but since there was no reaction, it would be difficult to hope for.

The only way was to simply press it with force.

Still, I wanted to save my strength in case they broke their promise, but that thought was ignored.

“Let’s start slowly.”

He pulled out his cotton cloth and spoke to Daejeon Temple.

I didn’t want to take too long.

Until I came here, I liked the idea of being able to obtain bloodstone, but entering the Kairos tribe’s territory to obtain that bloodstone was a no-brainer.

Maybe later, after I gained more strength, if I was a great warrior like I am now, doing that would have been nothing short of crazy.

“You are full of confidence.”

The great warrior looked at me with a strange expression.

It’s an amazing face that he can be calm in a situation where he could die.

To be precise, they were surprised that the fearful humans of the kingdom knew their methods.

“What good is there in not having confidence? There’s a saying that if you can’t avoid it, enjoy it, but bending here won’t make a difference, right?”

“If you can’t avoid it, enjoy it… I learned a good lesson.”

The great warrior nodded and stood between me and Akas.

“He who wins becomes a warrior. He who wins will receive all honor and glory.”

The Great Master interrupted mid-sentence and looked at me.

And he said the promise he made to me.

“Whoever wins this battle will gain everything.”

The great warrior slowly walked backwards, raising his ax high.

Akas and I looked at the ax flying high.

The great warrior swung the ax he had raised downward.

Suddenly.

The sound of trampling the ground with all his might and the ax hitting the ground occurred simultaneously.

At the same time that the grass under Akas’ feet was screaming, he arrived in front of me.

He swung the double-edged ax from top to bottom.

Quang!

The hand that held up the cotton pad felt slightly numb.

With that one collision, I could feel that my body had become stronger than I imagined.

I haven’t used the aurors now.

Nevertheless, the barbarian attack was easily blocked.

‘I never thought the effect of bloodstone would be this great.’

Now, my body has become incredibly strong as it has absorbed a large amount of bloodstone.

Even though it wasn’t as good as the battlefield, it was still possible to fight bare-chested against the warriors below it.

‘Wouldn’t it be possible to win against Ahar in a one-on-one match at this level?’

For a moment, that thought occurred to me.

The main character of this world.

I wonder if I can win against him who brings all his talents together.

“Don’t think about anything else about me!”

At that time, a loud roar was heard.

The voice of a warrior telling you not to ignore yourself.

While I was thinking about Ahar for a moment, Akas took advantage of the gap and dug in, swinging a double-edged ax.

Kagak –

He lifted Mu-myeong backwards and blocked the double-edged axe.

It’s good to feel the current sensation, but more important than that is to finish the battle quickly and maintain stamina.

‘Let’s finish it quickly.’

The first move he showed.

That alone was enough to tell the difference between him and me.

Even if he dies and wakes up, he cannot defeat me.

He couldn’t win with strength even against me who didn’t use Auras, so there was no way he could win if I started using Auras in earnest.

It is better for his mental health to destroy him all at once rather than dealing with him one by one and giving him hope.

Although it is strange to care about the mental health of your enemies.

“Hwaap!”

Akas’ double-edged ax narrowly missed my forehead.

He picked up the cotton, hung it on the base of the double-edged ax, and pulled.

“…!”

I saw him panicking and struggling without any strength.

I grabbed his hair and slammed it to the ground.

Kwasik!

The sound of flesh bursting and bones breaking was heard.

Knowing full well that I couldn’t put their strong bodies to sleep like this, I didn’t stop there and struck the ground a couple of times.

-Humans are cruel. But it’s cool.

I heard the hatchling’s voice and I took my hand away from Akas and stepped back.

Akas kneels down with his head on the ground and doesn’t respond.

I was worried that he was dead, but it wasn’t a big deal because it was common among them to die while proving themselves as a warrior.

‘They are people who value honor, so they won’t say anything if I killed them.’

Although it was funny to see the ignorant and reckless people who cowardly tried to carry out a surprise attack consider honor so important.

Thanks to that, I can get through safely.

“Hmm…”

As I was shaking off the blood from my hands, the great warrior who was watching from not far away approached me.

Then, he used his feet to lift Akas’ head.

“…Ugh…”

A faint groan was heard.

I felt a little relieved at that sound.

At least they wouldn’t be blamed for killing their comrades.

If you attack someone for no reason, claiming that you killed a colleague, you will be in trouble.

It was when I was putting my name back in its sheath.

The Great Warrior, who was lifting Akas’ head with his feet, raises his ax to shoulder height.

“All glory to the winner.”

The great warrior’s ax swings.

The great warrior’s feet were lifting Akas’ head like a guillotine.

Quad Deuk –

The ax cut off Akas’ neck.

Akas’ head, which had lost its body, made an eerie sound and rolled on the ground.

“Death to the loser.”

After the Great Master’s low words, the surroundings became quiet.

There is a strong smell of blood.

PASSSSUT –

I can hear the sound of the bushes blowing in the wind.

However, other than the sounds of nature, no other sounds were heard.

I could not see the savages with me breathing or making the slightest movement.

The only thing I hear is.

Thump thump thump!

It was the sound of their hearts beating furiously.

Except for the sound of their hearts that seemed to be coming from right next to them, they were so quiet that it felt excessive.

-How long are humans going to be like that?

If the hatchling hadn’t spoken to me, I would have been caught up in their heavy atmosphere and was in a daze.

‘Why on earth did you kill your colleague?’

I was nervous as I looked at Daejeon Temple.

I raised my alertness to the maximum and held on tightly to Myeong in case an attack came at any moment.

I can’t beat him.

However, with the help of hatchlings, it would be possible to escape.

And if my physical ability has improved significantly compared to before, I might be able to win if I do well.

But since there are always variables, I didn’t want to take a gamble.

Because the moment the great warrior killed his comrade, a variable arose.

“What have you done now?”

As I was staring at him for a while, the great warrior, who was looking at the death of his comrade whose head and body had been separated, raised his head and spoke to me.

I was taken aback by the anger in his voice.

I was the one to ask that question.

It was a good thing he didn’t kill him, so why is he angry?

‘Oh no way…!’

As I frowned, one thing suddenly occurred to me.

The reason why he is angry.

The reason why the barbarians who were so excited about the battle and shouted while Akas and I were fighting are silent and looking at me.

‘Because I didn’t kill him?’

They were crazy about battles and considered dying in battle an honor that could not be compared to anything else.

That means that my not taking action against him was tantamount to insulting him.

Moreover, the other person was angry as a colleague because this person who was going through the process of becoming a warrior had to die an unglorious death due to the existence of me.

‘I forgot he was a warmonger.’

It would have been better if Akas had been killed.

If that were the case, they might not have reacted that way to me, who delivered Akas a glorious death.

My thoughts were short.

I thought I just had to win, but I should have thought more seriously.

‘If I do something wrong, I might have to fight…’

I glanced around.

It was good up until we beat Akas, but things didn’t go well after that.

“Whoa, no… It’s my fault for having high expectations from Easton’s dog.”

The murderous spirit disappeared in an instant, and his boiling energy calmed down.

His reaction was sudden, as if dirt had been thrown on a roaring bonfire.

“It’s amazing just knowing the ritual that proves one’s warrior status in the first place.”

He looks at me intently.

He quickly scanned me from head to toe and crossed his arms.

The barbarians around me are still glaring at me.

If it weren’t for the Daejeon staying still, it looked as if it would rush at me at any moment.

I glanced at them. He seemed angry, perhaps because his colleague had died an dishonorable death.

As someone who values survival more than fame, their reaction is somewhat incomprehensible, but what can I do?

That’s their culture.

“Bring it with you.”

While I was watching them, the Great Warrior gestured towards the barbarians.

Although the barbarians looked dissatisfied, they moved right away without protesting against him even once.

Two savages went through the bushes.

And less than five minutes later, he appeared carrying a heavy-looking sack on both shoulders.

thud.

Just by looking at the sound it made as it hit the ground, I could tell that the weight of the battery was not light at all.

“It was promised. “Check it out.”

“Ah yes. All right.”

Leaving the Daejeonsa’s harsh words behind, I approached one of the batteries that the barbarians had laid down and untied the rope.

“Oh…”

Ore boasting a brilliant red color welcomed me.
