I Have Come To End This Fight

Episode 68. stimulus (1)

After the first sparring, Yuri sat down on the floor of the sparring arena.

In front of him, Thearesia began training.

shook-.

A very simple stab.

As if it didn’t matter if she looked at this much, Thearesia started training right away.

In fact, it was only a stabbing training, so it was true that it didn’t matter if I looked at it.

He looked at Thearesia, who was repeating spear thrusts in front of him, with interest.

“Tessha-senpai, what was that? The stab of the pure white trajectory.”

In response to Yuri’s question, Thearesia answered without stopping stabbing.

“Brittle.”

“It’s brittle… … .”

“What is that strange thing about you?”

“Anything strange?”

“wind? Barrier? I don’t know what it was, but it felt like the space around you was distorted for an instant.”

At Thearesia’s words, Yuri showed an interesting gaze.

‘Is that how it feels to be in the position of the other person who is being attacked by demons?’

Since you are in the position to unleash magic, is there any way you can know how the attacker feels?

Yuri answered Thearesia’s question in a calm voice.

“Maryu.”

“Maryu… … .”

Thearesia ponders the word Maryu.

And that was it.

Soon, she turned her attention away from Yuri and only stared at the tip of her spear.

It’s like projecting yourself into a single window.

Watching that scene, Yuri was also lost in thought.

‘There was definitely nothing wrong with the demon that I spread.’

Even so, Thearesia’s brittleness went against the flow.

I still don’t know how that was possible.

However, if you continue to fight in the future, you will be able to find out the reason.

At first, it was just a sparring for 10,000 points, but Yuri was also happy because it seemed that he would gain more than he thought.

‘Earn points and build experience.’

Is there anything else in the world that is so beneficial?

Yuri stood up and looked at Thearesia.

Confidence or not, she entered training.

Thearesia repeated the stabbing in the same posture, as if she had started to concentrate perfectly at some point.

Yuri, who was watching the scene carefully, was slightly impressed.

‘It’s neat.’

It was a simple-looking thrust that any spearman could do, but Thearesia’s felt something different.

Even though the motion was repeated countless times, there was no deviation in the path.

In addition, the distribution of power entering the thrust was also constant.

Just by looking at her posture, you can tell how many times she has done this.

In response, Yuri carefully escaped the arena so that Thearesia, who had now become her neighbor, would not be distracted.

Having come to such a new cave, a place that would now be his residence, he looked around.

‘How should I decorate this place?’

Yuri is excited at the thought of transforming an empty space into her own space.

A smile crept across his lips.

‘Let’s go outside.’

Since this is where you will live in the future, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to fully familiarize yourself with the surrounding geography.

I think it would be nice to come find something for dinner.

The glass that decided so quickly escaped the crack.

And even after he passed through the rift, the air-piercing sound continued to leak from the arena.

Hiss- hiss- hiss-.

for a very long time

Monday morning.

“Ughguk-.”

Yuri woke up with a short stretch.

A lot has changed in his cave compared to the previous day.

A wooden door covering the entrance to the cave.

Likewise, a cot made of wood.

It was a considerable amount of stuff for something that was created in just one day.

It was the moment when the dexterity he had learned while wandering around for a long time shined.

But Yuri didn’t particularly like all of that.

‘Assuming that the day was temporary, let’s participate in today’s assembly and then decorate it in earnest.’

There was a lot to do.

From traps to prevent outside intrusion.

A properly made bed, not such a simple bed.

Ventilation, vents and campfire stoves, etc.

It was a place where he would spend a long time from now, so Yuri was thinking of getting everything right.

‘I should have a torch, but it’s not easy to get oil.’

Also, I didn’t particularly like the smell of burning oil torches.

However, light was essential in the dark cave life.

That’s why Yuri chose the lane without any hesitation.

“Let’s porridge.”

The Dalian Dragon Cave I saw yesterday.

Dozens of glowstones embedded in the ceiling of the so-called training arena flickered in front of my eyes.

‘Because there won’t be much difference if one is missing.’

Taking it from the amphitheater is risky, so I thought of stealing one from the sparring cave.

And if you make up your mind, you must act immediately.

‘There’s some time until the meeting time, so let’s go right away.’

Yuri stealthily and quietly left the residence and headed for the arena.

Yuri, who had planned to secretly take one before Thearesia showed up.

His plan went awry the moment it started.

tax amount -.

When Yuri arrived at the arena entrance, the first thing that greeted him was the sound of a gong that shook the air.

And the thick smell of sweat and heat overtook him.

“huh?”

When Yuri entered the arena, Thearesia was already there, holding a spear.

Shack- Shack-.

Thearesia repeated the stabbing in the same posture as yesterday.

She only stared at the tip of the window, as if she didn’t even know that Yuri had come.

Yuri glanced at Thearesia.

‘Since when have you been doing that?’

She must have been doing that for hours, her clothes were clinging to her body from sweat.

The ground she stood on was wet and black with her sweat.

Also, steam rose from Thearesia’s body in the cold air.

Shack- Shack-.

‘I’ll have to come back later.’

Seeing her who couldn’t wake up from her concentration, Yuri eventually turned away.

* * *

With her hands stuck in her jacket pocket, Yuri reluctantly walked down the forest path.

Unlike the hurried run the day before, his steps were overflowing with composure.

Looking at the clear sunlight, Yuri smiled happily.

“Ha, that’s refreshing.”

It was sunny today and the sun felt warm even though it was winter.

If it wasn’t for the first regular gathering, you might want to enjoy sunbathing leisurely.

‘Wouldn’t it be okay to take that kind of leisure once in a while?’

The moment when your heart flutters slightly at the word ‘relaxation’.

At the end of the forest road, I could see the northern clock tower in the distance.

‘It came just in time.’

The time indicated 8:50.

At this, Yuri murmured softly.

“I’ll have to get myself a watch or something.”

Although his biological clock is quite accurate, it is still not as good as a real clock.

Time seems to be quite important in the cradle, but how long can we not rely on the biological clock?

‘I didn’t have the money to buy luxury items like watches outside, so I just lived.’

This is the cradle.

A place where you can buy what you want with points, not money.

If you have points, you can buy a watch.

The question was whether the store sells watches… … .

‘I don’t think I’ll sell anything other than very basic necessities… I should aim for a special edition.’

While thinking so, Yuri was able to arrive near the clock tower.

As time flies, 50 units have already arrived.

buzzing voices-.

The atmosphere of the 50th class gathered in a few days was very chaotic.

He had to do that too.

All they were told at the cradle was the existence of points and that they should be self-sufficient.

Due to the severe absence of information, the 50th class, which had been in the cradle for less than a week, had not finished grasping the situation.

As a result, the 50th class gathered together with friends they had made in the black line or with those who had known each other, exchanging the information they found out.

But even that was information gathered by goofballs, so it wasn’t very useful.

Because those who had information that could be classified as real kept their mouths shut while keeping an eye on them.

And it was in the middle of that little market-like atmosphere that Yuri appeared.

Along with that, the reaction of the 50th was divided into two.

“So that’s what… … .”

“Ah, that… … .”

Regardless of Yuri’s appearance, those who just finished talking.

Those who didn’t care about the existence of Yuri were about 260 people who fainted as soon as the Baekbo ceremony began.

“… Is that guy?”

“Is that guy right?”

“Does it seem right? The black-haired guy.”

As soon as Yuri appears, those who stop what they are doing and turn their heads.

They were about 30 people who clearly recognized the presence of Yuri who was walking ahead of them in the 100-foot ceremony.

With the appearance of Yuri, the 299 were divided into exactly two categories.

Those who know about Yuri’s existence and those who don’t.

Of course, none of them knew Yuri’s name.

Everyone passed out before Yuri could reveal her name to the Sword Master.

Even those who knew of Yuri’s existence simply referred to him as ‘that guy with black hair’.

On the other hand, what other people say about you or not.

Yuri made his way through the crowd and took his place in the front row.

Soon, a familiar energy followed behind him.

“hungry!”

Yuri gasped at the familiar voice.

I guess I’m in a good mood today.

I can even hear that guy’s voice.

The moment she slightly turned her body around, Yuri staggered.

he narrowed his eyes

“You look… Why is it like that?”

What the hell have you been doing all this time?

Here and there, the clothes were full of rotten leaves, as well as animal fur.

“hungry… … .”

Poppy approached, scratching the back of her head, and soon sat down near Yuri.

And Poppy’s shoulders trembled at the voice that came in succession.

“He’s been looking for you for days.”

The one who appeared this time was Arin.

Turning her head in the direction from which the sound came, Yuri’s face hardened again.

“Then why are you the way you look?”

Arin’s behavior was the same as Poppy’s.

Curly, full of fur from a strange furry beast.

It’s like walking around the same place as Poppy.

Yuri opened her eyes and asked.

“… Were you looking for me too?”

To that question, Arin replied by brushing off the hair and fallen leaves on her shoulder.

“no.”

“That’s good… … .”

“I was after him.”

“… … .”

Arin pointed at Poppy with her chin.

At this, Yuri put on a puzzled expression.

‘When did you guys become so close?’

… The words could not be uttered when he saw Poppy hurriedly hiding behind his back.

“I’m hungry… … .”

Poppy crouched behind Yuri and glanced over her shoulder at Arin.

Yuri asked Arin as if he was dumbfounded at the fact that he was extremely wary to anyone.

“Why are you following him?”

“It’s amazing.”

“… Right.”

He was an idiot for asking a normal question to an abnormal kid.

But soon after, his eyes widened to the size of a lantern.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen the Yum in my life.”

“… Yum people?”

“huh? What, you didn’t know?”

“… … ?”

“He’s a Yum.”

“… … ?!”

At those words, Yuri’s head swung back behind her.

Yuri’s eyes were talking to the squatting Poppy.

is that real

Why didn’t you tell me!

Seeing those eyes, Poppy tilted her head.

“hungry?”

Again, it was a reaction as if he really didn’t know.

Yu-ri’s pulse went numb at those innocent eyes that seemed to ask why everyone else knew but only you didn’t.

“Yeah, that’s right, I’m the only one who didn’t know.”

The moment Yuri’s lips, which had become crooked for a moment, protruded out, Arin intervened.

“Don’t you know that you are a Yum at a glance? Where else would a person with that size besides the Yum? Even if there is, it won’t be common.”

“… Right. It was all because of that old man and his grandson.”

Ralph and Muchi grew up so ignorant when it comes to being normal people!

It was all because of them who arbitrarily raised the standards of ordinary people.

Around the time Yuri’s lips twitched again.

Jerk-.

9 o’clock sharp.

Just in time for the announced meeting, the black swordsmen stormed in.
