How to Live as a Half-Dragon

026. miracle (2).

“I’ll tell you what I need within two days.”

As if seeing enough potential, Drake said so.

“Do you have two days to spare?”

It was Drake who just said he didn’t have time.

There’s no way I’ve suddenly run out of time… .

“Things have changed. Like you said, I saw the potential.”

“ah… . yes… .”

First of all, I’m happy because it’s a compliment, but it’s also true that it’s somewhat burdensome.

Anyway, Cyan put aside that and asked while copying the movements Drake showed earlier.

“hmm… . But can you become stronger in such a short time with something like this?”

Xian struck down the dagger.

Compared to the previous one, a blow that was more than twice as powerful unfolded.

This is the power of Drake’s guidance.

Thanks to his efficient stance and mana management, he became this strong in a short period of time.

Even Xian was very surprised by this.

‘but… .’

Xian knows this is not a radical solution.

This isn’t enough… .

The difference between the Dragonian and himself was great.

Of course, Drake won’t let go of everything and leave everything to himself, but even taking that into consideration, it doesn’t make sense to use him in real life, who has just begun to walk.

As Xian was thinking about it, Drake said.

“Of course there are limits to that.”

something like this?

I don’t think this deserves that kind of treatment… .

Although he didn’t know it, Xian was surprised because he was experiencing a noticeable effect.

“sure?”

“What do you think the basics of combat are?”

basics of combat.

Well, even when I asked such a question, I hadn’t really thought about it, so I was vague about the answer.

Until just a few days ago, Xian lived a life completely unrelated to that, so there was not much to speculate on.

“I don’t know.”

Drake, who giggled at Xian’s words, showed white teeth.

“It doesn’t fit.”

It was at that moment that Drake’s voice reached my ears.

Xian’s pupils caused a big earthquake.

It was because Drake’s new model, which said so, split in an instant and left many afterimages.

However, there is no sign.

The body… .

‘Behind your back?’

Cyan felt the presence behind him, so he stopped without turning around.

It was because Drake’s blade was stabbing the tip of his neck.

If this was a sword, he would surely be dead.

“You just have to hit it accurately.”

“hmm… .”

Hearing Drake’s words, Xian couldn’t help but put on a puzzled expression.

Surely his words could be said to be key, but the problem was that anyone would have played Slayer if it was easy.

“I know what you are thinking. But again, this isn’t completely out of the question.”

“I think it will be difficult… .”

“It will be difficult, but it’s enough to cheat your eyes in the first place. I don’t even expect a level of perfection from the beginning! Well, in real life, you only need to fool your opponent once.”

That’s right.

Unless you’re merciful when you can stupidly take your opponent’s neck.

And as Xian watched, the current technique was a fairly effective technique that could surely take the opponent’s vitals when successful.

Because it was a technique that could grab the opponent’s back at once.

“I plan to complete in two days what I just showed you.”

“uh… . Are you just learning that?”

It seems like there are a lot of things I need to fix… .

More than anything else, Xian was honestly unreliable because he knew his condition well.

Drake said.

“It’s okay, don’t make white noise and follow me. That’s how you do it.”

* * *

“Like this?”

“No, that’s not what I mean! Because he seems like an incompetent guy… .”

Contrary to the smooth teaching before, Drake’s voice was screaming.

If that’s the reason, of course Xian.

It was because he, who had been absorbing it like anything, was wandering.

“I’ll show you again, so follow me.”

Drake gave another demonstration and sprinkled eyes full of anticipation.

Xian, who confirmed the movement, put on a spleen expression.

It was when Xian’s new model, which had been twisted with silence for a while, created many afterimages.

With a sigh, Drake grabbed the face of Xian who was moving quickly behind him and stopped him.

“again.”

Sian pressed his nose and complained of injustice.

“That’s right… .”

“Speed is the lifeblood of technology. The body that moves behind your back should never get caught! You must move to the background before you can discern the afterimage. If you read it before that, I think there will be nothing after that!”

“hmm… . all right. I will try again.”

Drake let out a light sigh when he saw Xian return to his stance.

However, in the corner of his eyes looking at Xian, there was impatience, not distrust or frustration.

‘I expected it wouldn’t be easy… . Is it impossible in the first place?’

In fact, it was because Drake himself knew best that it was only natural that Xian was lost.

If the things he had taught before were just the basics of the basics, it was a technique that could be considered one of the Ferreira family’s best practices.

A move to quickly go behind the opponent and pierce the vital point.

Originally, it was a skill that showed off the characteristics of Ferreira, who boasted fast and accurate swordsmanship.

It would be strange if Xian, who couldn’t even walk, learned it easily.

“It takes too much strength in my right ankle.”

“How can you move so fast without force… .”

“I think afterimages are made with flexibility, not strength!”

In other words, feeling anxious due to the limited time only raised his voice, but originally, it was not something to be angry with Xian.

It was something I had to blame myself for making nonsense.

‘But now I have to rely on a miracle.’

I knew it was an unreasonable request, but it was a gamble that I believed in the transcendent talent.

It was time for Drake to stop Xian once again and try to point out the problem again.

Drake hesitated, looked outside the cave for a moment, then said.

“Don’t go away for a while.”

Xian said.

“sleep… . where?”

Before Xian could even bury him, Drake disappeared like a ghost.

Xian, left alone, murmured.

“Did you go to the bathroom?”

“It must be because of the monster.”

Xian was startled by the sudden voice.

Even though he was sensitive to his presence, he didn’t notice it until he arrived close by.

As Xian hurriedly looked toward the aisle of the secret room, a pale-looking boy stepped out of the wall.

Xian asked after checking his appearance, who looked like he was about two years older than himself.

“Is it because of the monster?”

“From the moment we’re trapped here, monsters attack from time to time, they’re probably trying to drain their power… .”

Xian checked the expression of the boy sitting against the wall and asked.

“But was it okay for me to come?”

Xian thought that the reason the boy was locked in a secret room was because of the poison.

When a seizure begins, the poison energy must be driven out, and even if it is a trained person, it is because the general public can be sufficiently poisoned by the poison energy.

As expected, the boy spoke resolutely without any hesitation.

“no.”

“Then why did you come out?”

The boy looked at Xian’s face intently at Xian’s question, then opened his mouth.

“I was curious.”

“what?”

“This is the first time Grandpa has taught someone so enthusiastically.”

In other words, I came out to see your face.

I’m curious, but somehow, the excessive interest is burdensome.

Xian said.

“so? How is it?”

“I don’t know yet. He looks handsome, though.”

“okay?”

“Yeah, so I want you to show me.”

“Training?”

The boy nodded quietly.

Is voyeurism a hobby for people in this family?

Well, it’s not a common thing to show training, but I showed it to the person in the same household as the person who taught me the technique anyway, so when I thought it wouldn’t matter, Xian agreed.

“good.”

* * *

Xian stood up.

“So what?”

“… … .”

As the boy nodded quietly, Xian’s eyes filled with determination.

For an instant, the cyan shook vaguely and then disappeared leaving behind three afterimages.

Xian asked the boy with a dry expression who was watching everything.

“Do you know what the problem is?”

“There is too much movement. Too much force is applied to the ankle, and the afterimage is still not enough to fool the eye.”

It’s something that Drake pointed out earlier, so I feel like I’ve been hit in the stomach.

It was at that time that Xi’an’s self-esteem plummeted.

“But it’s great.”

“huh?”

“You only learned four hours, didn’t you?”

“uh… . It seems to be about that, but… .”

Since it’s inside the cave, there’s no way to know exactly how much he trained.

As Xian swallowed the end of his words, the boy soon lost his thoughts with a rather serious face, then muttered something only he could understand.

“I mean… .”

Of course, the technique Xian demonstrated, that is, non-spirituality, is a technique of the Fereira family.

If you are a person who has achieved high achievement, you should be able to follow similarly, but it is impossible to understand deeply enough to teach others.

In other words, since he was a boy who knew these facts, he had no choice but to confirm with Xian again.

It was hard to believe that it was an achievement achieved in just four hours.

The boy opened his mouth.

“That was the condition of my going out.”

“huh? what?”

“The technique you used earlier. If you don’t learn it, my father said you can’t go out.”

That meant that the boy knew how to do this skill.

They said it was great, but in the end it was a deception… ?

“Ouch… .”

The boy braced himself against the wall and struggled to get up.

It was to the point that I felt sorry for all the Xian I saw.

“Are you sitting still?”

When Xian spoke to the boy, who was breathing so fast that he barely stood up, he shook his head.

It was a difficult look, but only the eyes were alive.

“I’ll show.”

“Show me? what?”

“That a little while ago.”

“I don’t think I can do it now… .”

“At least once… . And above all, I think I know what your problem is.”

I would like to decline if possible because of the boy’s pale complexion, but…

Unfortunately, the boy’s words that he seemed to know the cause of his wandering were very attractive.

‘Yes, just once… .’

Despite my shame, I decided to ask.

The boy trudged and caught his breath on the other side of Xian.

The boy facing him took a deep breath and said with a slightly relaxed expression.

“I will. You have to take a good look. I can’t do as many times as you say.”

Xian’s eyes widened.

It was when Xian raised his eyesight.

A fair wind blew, and after a while, a boy’s voice was heard behind Xian’s back.

‘Only five afterimages… .’

It was two fewer than Drake’s, but it was a superior proficiency compared to Xian, who only had three afterimages excluding the main body.

still… .

“saw?”

Xian nodded at the question.

“huh.”

I saw.
