No Gossip, a Real Extra

36 – Sharpening the Sword # 3

After a delicious meal, I returned to the classroom. There is still some time left before ringing the bell, and after a while, I will go to the training ground and give a training class.

This is my first time doing a dance with my classmates, so I’m looking forward to it.

“Sihoo. If you hang out with me, don’t look after me. That’s an insult to warriors.”

“You sound like a warrior. Geuncheol. You don’t have enough experience to be a warrior yet.”

“Ha. So you’re saying you have a lot of experience?”

“That… You can tell from my skills, but to be honest, I have a little bit.”

“Experienced!”

It certainly is.

“I was educated, no. I was trained since I was young. It was around that time that I woke up.”

“This was a true bone superhuman, right?”

“Jingol? Then what is sacred bone?”

“A person who is superhuman from birth.”

“I haven’t heard of such an example yet… Well, anyway. You’ll get to know your skills very well after sparring.”

“hehehehe, I’m looking forward to this.”

How ‘strong’ I really am. It was so curious that I couldn’t stand it. Well, of course I’m saying this in a joking way. There’s no way I can fight well because I’ve never even learned kendo. Most of the kids here have been educated since childhood.

I’m no match.

But that’s the story so far.

Wouldn’t it be better to learn how to use a sword while raising your stats in the future? I haven’t even passed the first semester of my first year yet. Now is the time to get to know me and build a foundation. No one is good at it from the start. I will grow from today.

“Kim Geun-cheol? Did you eat well?”

While I was talking with Shihu, Leona approached me.

“Uh. Thanks to Chunhui Ryu, I ate well.”

“No, shouldn’t it be because of me there?”

Leona frowned.

Of course, I decided not to use the Leona ticket.

“That’s because I decided not to use the meal ticket you gave me. Hurry up and get it back.”

“Kuh…! I want to make you use this no matter what. I’ll just throw it away like a late night snack.”

What are you talking about!

“No! Forgive me! No, it was unsatisfying, but it was delicious, but I’m sorry if you keep doing that! Well, when you see me, you want to give me something to eat, so I can’t stand any disease!”

“Huh, I’m just feeling sorry for Kim Geun-cheol because he’s so pitiful. You can’t just look at a starving child and pass by, right? That’s the Kinus family’s noblesse oblige spirit.”

Fantastic!

“Don’t suddenly shine…!”

“Look at my brilliance until you go blind, Kim Geun-cheol!”

I really think I’m going blind!

Anyway.

“Well, let’s get past that. Anyway, Leona. Thank you for the last time. I ate so damn well. But I’m sorry if I just accept it. If there’s anything I can help you with, let me know.”

I wanted to say this.

Leona keeps feeling sorry for me and she tries to take care of me like her mother. Enough to bite her bones.

“Can I help you? Um.”

At those words, Leona thought as she put her finger on her lips. By the way, her lips are really red. At first glance, she looks like a quiet young girl, but she’s too condescending.

“What, then, Kim Geun-chul? Take some time on the weekend.”

“At the weekend?”

“Yes. Please match my noblesse and obligatory hobbies.”

“What kind of hobby is that!”

Noblesse Obligatory hobbies!

All I can imagine is horseback riding or golf!

“I’ll know when I go. Then see you on the weekend.”

“Oh, yes.”

I don’t know what it is, but it shouldn’t be that difficult.

“Geuncheol? Weekend?”

Then Sihoo looked at me and said.

“Hmm? Why?”

“Wasn’t you supposed to go out with me for the weekend?”

“That’s how it should be. Well, and see it with Leona. A weekend is two days, isn’t it?”

Let’s spend the day on Leona.

“Hmm.”

“Because I received a lot from Leona. Even if I don’t know what it is, I have to help.”

“Yes. Well, I guess. Then shall we see you on Saturday?”

“Sure.”

While doing so, the bell rang, and soon Instructor Lee So-ra came in.

“Now, this time is sparring. Everyone follow me.”

“Yes.”

* * *

“Oh.”

The arena was very neat and futuristic. Something wide and white. And there were three rings. There are things like various kiosks placed around it.

ㅡBeep.

As Instructor Lee So-ra operated the device, the floor opened neatly, and a cradle with protective equipment and weapons was raised.

“Now, everyone, choose the weapon and protective gear you like. There are no restrictions, so you can choose three swords, twin spears, three spears, and even apostate weapons as much as you like.”

“Sado style!”

How do you do that!

Is it okay to turn it like an infinite apostle?

“Of course, if you behave rudely with a clumsy combination, you will get scolded. What are you doing? Not choosing?”

—-Damn it!

I ran right away and picked out a sparring sword and protective gear and put it on. First of all, safety comes first… No. Still, I’ll have to think about activity.

“Good.”

A helmet for sparring with a sword.

And I packed my gauntlets and leggings.

But this sword for sparring feels a bit like a combination of a lightsaber and a triple bar. Still, the weight and grip are similar to my knife, so I don’t care too much.

“Weapons for sparring have a safety device, so they only give you a slight sense of impact and shock. Even if you get hit, it doesn’t hurt that much. .”

That makes me more confident. No, but how can you get hit with this and not get sick? I had doubts, but I thought so. There must be technology involved that I don’t know about.

“Then, I’ll start class. I’ll arrange a group for you, so wait.”

As I stood and waited, Instructor Lee So-ra tapped on her laptop and called my name.

“Team 1. Sihoo Lee. Chunhui Ryu.”

It’s broken.

“Shihoo, Liu Chunhui, shake that thing off.”

“Hmm, Chunhui is also a bit on the strong side.”

“I can hear you all, you cheeky bastards! Ishihoo! It’s time to decide! Come up!”

Ryu Chunhui showed fighting spirit and climbed into the ring.

“hahahahaha, I’ve been hated for this. Then, Geuncheol. Are you working hard?”

“Yes, yes.”

Please shake it off.

But looking at it, it seems that Sihoo is a bit stronger than Ryu Chunhui.

“And group 2. Ken. Brian. Last group 3. Kim Geun-chul. Yuuri. Everyone, go up to the ring.”

What? Who?

Woo Yuri?

Do you like milk?

As soon as I moved to the ring, a girl with a striking blonde ponytail followed her with her hands in her pockets. Who was he? Seeing that his eyes were a bit ferocious, he seemed to have a bad temper.

Above all, the clothes are a little on the poor side. The top is wearing a school uniform mai, but the bottom is not a school uniform skirt or pants, but black training pants that fit snugly like leggings. And he’s wearing some big sneakers.

Something in the style of Iljin.

“Oh.”

I remembered who it was. It looks like the guy who always slept in the classroom. Anyway, when I came up to the 3rd group ring, Yuuri also followed me.

“Hey. Uuri? You don’t wear protective gear?”

But she wasn’t wearing any of these women’s protective gear. She’s just holding a sword for sparring. Is she really going to fight without wearing protective gear?

Angry against sword expert Kim Geun-cheol?

It must be dangerous.

“Not really. I don’t have to wear it.”

A shrill voice.

“Is that so? Well then, even if I hit you, you won’t say much?”

“Huh? What? Right?”

At that moment, he glared at me and said that.

It’s so scary because I look like Iljin noona.

“No, hey. What are you talking about so scary? You could get hit in sparring. If you don’t wear protective gear, you might get hit even though it hurts.

Wouldn’t it be good manners to wear protective gear when sparring? I’m not someone who enjoys beating people, and if I don’t have protective gear, of course I’m a bit reluctant to hit people.

“It’s okay, just do it.”

“Uh. Yes.”

You’re f*cking cool.

Then you should just do it.

“Ah… That’s right. You.”

“Hmm?”

“That Kim Geun-cheol? A noisy guy?”

“Do you know me?”

ㅡIt’s the beginning of Dalian!

At that time, Instructor Lee So-ra announced the start of the sparring.

ㅡ Ugh.

At the same time, Uuri’s sword was covered with a green light, damn it!!!

“Hey f*cker!!! Sword skill!!! Don’t take out your sword skill during sparring!!!”

“What?”

“Instructor Lee So-ra!!!! Can I do this!!! He uses sword skills during sparring!!!”

—-Damn it!

I immediately cast a high jump and came down from the ring! And run! No, but he’s not crazy! What students look at the swordsman in Dalian! Is there anything you can do to lose your limbs!

ㅡ Tak Tak Tak!

Anyway, I immediately went behind Instructor Lee So-ra and hid!

“Instructor Lee So-ra! Please dry it!”

“… Ha ha.”

But isn’t this woman sighing and putting her chin on my head. And as she strokes her gently, she says.

“Does that look black to Kim Geun-cheol?”

“Yes?”

“A sword for sparring. Give it to me.”

“Yes.”

I handed over the sword right away. Then the instructor who received the sword turned the back of his nose.

Now then.

ㅡuuu.

A green sword was wrapped around the sword.

“This?”

“It’s just a safety device. You can think of it as a kind of force field to reduce damage when hit. It doesn’t hurt much even if it gets hit.”

“Oh.”

“Stop screaming and go up… I didn’t know you didn’t know this.”

Moment.

ㅡ Anger.

Fever rose on his face.

I must have misunderstood something.

“Kim Geun-chul is you! Did you make a fuss again! Go upstairs! I’m more ashamed of seeing you! Do I really have to feed you from one to ten!”

“…f*ck.”

Tumbling.

I climbed back into the ring.

“Poop… Hey. Do you want me to take out the sword during sparring?”

Uryu-ri laughed, as if my screaming was so funny.

“I-I’m sorry. I misunderstood. Yuuri? I’m sorry.”

“He’s such a strange guy. Anyway. Hey. Hurry up and get yours on too. We have to fight.”

“Yes.”

ㅡ A clap.

I turned the back of my nose and put a force field on my knife.

“Come.”

I aimed my sword while taking a kendo pose I saw on the Internet. As seriously as possible. I have to test how much I can fight. I will mobilize all my abilities.

Just the moment I thought so.

—-Paat.

Uyuri lightly stepped on the ground.

ㅡWeee!

Suddenly rushing forward with terrifying momentum!

“aaah!”

I tried to raise my sword to block his attack, but why is this f*cking sword so fast! Some kind of quick sword is f*cking fast, no! That’s not enough, Yuuri’s knife wraps around my knife and pushes it away, aiming at my face-

“Sivaaa!!!!!!!!!!”

My face is splitting up!!!!!

“This crazy…! Hey! Don’t be quiet!”

“Heo Eok?!”

When I opened my tightly closed eyes, the front of my eyes was just green.

The blade surrounded by the force field was right in front of my eyes.

I thought you were really behind.

“Wait a minute! You’re so fast! I thought I was about to split my face!”

“What? No, what are you doing with this… Hey. Stand up straight. I’ll do it again.”

“Yes.”

I have to do it again.

I think I was a bit careless this time.

As expected, this is a real battle. As a beginner in swordsmanship, I don’t think I can handle it. Still, if you’re sober, how can you respond?

ㅡ Cheo-eok.

Uyuri went back to her seat, and I took my posture again. And I focused as much as I could, staring at the front. His sword is fast. You will have to see and deal with it properly.

“Uyuri. Let’s start.”

The moment I said that.

—-Damn it!

The battle from earlier is reproduced! Yuuri rushes in quickly! I tried to block it somehow, but I held out my knife.

ㅡPain!

It was very easy to hit my wrist, and Yuuri came right in and slashed my face again!

“Quaaa!!!!”

“Hey! Hey, f*ck! Be quiet!”

“No! Hey! Sorry! Surprised and reflexive!”

Again, the knife stopped right in front of my eyes!

No, no matter how fast the knife is flying towards my eyes, I can’t help but hear this! Moreover, it is impossible to cope with!

“Ah, bastard, what are you so scared of? Hey. Why do you close your eyes? Are you supposed to close your eyes during a fight? Huh? When a knife comes flying, you have to watch it until the end, so be scared. Ha ha.”

Perhaps it was frustrating, Yuuri started giving me advice… Yes. Just looking at it, I was a bit pathetic.

“Ai-san, that’s… So fast, how can you not close your eyes?”

“Don’t wind it.”

“Okay. I won’t wind it this time. To be honest, wait until the second time. I’m scared because it came so suddenly… Anyway, let’s do it again.”

“If you shout, you’ll get lost, really.”

Uyuri looked at me sharply and said terribly.

“Okay. I’ll do it right this time.”

Anyway, sparring started again.

“Oops! f*ck! Ooooo! Help me!”

“Shut up! Hey f*ck! You! Don’t be quiet!”

“No sir…! This is it!”

The dog was robbed again!

I can’t help it because the level difference between me and me is so great! I can’t cope and try to slash my face at an unreadable speed, so my eyes automatically close and screams come out!

“You can’t sharpen that thing, really! Hey! Don’t get your head around it! You don’t know if you make a mistake, you’ll get hurt!”

“Hey, I’m really sorry about this. I’m trying to be as serious as possible right now, but this is a bit more difficult and scary than I thought, so this…”

“Ha… Hey. Kim Geun-cheol? If you can’t cope with this, what are you really going to do? Aren’t you going to be a hero?

Uyuri started nagging me.

I was too ashamed to say anything.

“If you’re going to be a hero, you have to do the basics. What’s the matter with a boy who can’t even do that much? In actual combat, you’ve lost a lot of time, you bastard.”

Uyuri cravings me with a disapproving face.

But there is something unfortunate about it.

What should a beginner say to an expert?

“No, but it’s my first time, so how are you doing well? You look like an expert. What should I do against you?”

“Even if it’s the first time, you’re not afraid of screaming like that? Be serious. Don’t you know that if you lack combat skills, you’ll die on the spot? You’ll die after closing your eyes once.”

Uyuri spoke so seriously that she could only nod her head politely. I don’t really want to be gullible and I’m doing it as seriously as possible, but if you scream, you’ll have no choice but to think that way.

“Haa. Seriously. If that’s the case, just drop out of school. You could become a hero for no reason and fall behind in battle. Bastard, this is really funny.”

But what?

Quit school?

That’s not going to work.

And when I heard it, I couldn’t stand it because it was unfair. He is an experienced person and I am not the first one today. Advice is also advice. It is too much to ask a beginner to have intermediate level skills.

“No, quit school! It’s my first time!”

“Are you proud of being the first? You’re telling me to quit and not to fall behind. I mean, it’s the first time!”

“Hey! I’ll admit I’m not used to cutting, but I’m not coming to school to learn it from now on! It’s too much to ask you to quit!”

“Even if I learn from now on, it’s already too late for this level of skill, man!”

“It’s late, you bastard! Are you dissatisfied with my skills!”

At that, Uuri shouted!

“I’m so dissatisfied, bastard! I can’t stand it because I’m frustrated when I see a guy like you!”

You say you can’t stand it because you’re frustrated?

“It’s frustrating? Hey! Then you should tell me! Swordsmanship!”

“What?!”

If you twist it, you teach me!
