Public Ranking Match (3)

Fernando vs Roman Dmitry.

people flocked

All of the top 30 players have rejected the ranking match, so the anticipation of what kind of confrontation Fernando, who is called the top 30, will show, has risen.

“Can Fernando last one minute?”

“It seems impossible to me. Fernando showed a very weak side against swordsmen who display 4 or higher auras. If Roman Dmitry actively manifests his aura, he won’t last 10 seconds, and if it’s the other way around, he’ll still be pretty good.

“I think the same. Although Fernando is different, his solid basics and swordsmanship tend to be recognized.”

People’s expectations were negative.

Fernando.

People called him “the limit of effort.”

Clearly, reaching four-star status is a great thing, but the innate talent has been shown to falter over the years.

It was frustrating to the people watching.

Obviously, the swordsmanship overwhelms the top performers, but the power of the aura was not supported, so I had to always be satisfied with the top 30.

1 year ago.

The confrontation with Bertov was an example of Fernando’s limitations.

Bertov, who was ranked 99th at the time, succeeded in defeating Fernando even though he was completely overwhelmed with his swordsmanship and skill.

Aura explosion. One powerful blow completely changed the composition of the confrontation.

It was still the same today.

At Fernando’s face to face Roman Dmitry, people looked a bit sad.

widely-

went on stage

Fernando took a deep breath and looked at his opponent.

‘ The world is so unfair.’

The taste was bitter.

Roman appearance.

too young

It’s hard to believe that he’s in his early twenties just by looking at his appearance, but that guy was Roman Dmitry, who is causing a stir in the Cairo Kingdom rankings.

From 99th to 30th.

The monster that appeared in front of him after only a week was showing what the realm of age-defying talent was.

There was a feeling of inferiority.

I was genuinely envious.

people didn’t know

Every day I open my eyes and try as if I’m going to die until I close my eyes, but every time the sun changes, I feel like the people behind me are getting ahead of me.

Fernando was 30th in his later years.

When it collapsed simply by being blocked by a wall of talent, it was overrun with a sense of inferiority towards people like Roman Dmitry.

It was good even if it was a stale feeling.

If it wasn’t for the poison from a sense of inferiority, Fernando would have collapsed in no time.

‘Roman Dmitry. make me a scapegoat Instead, let me take even one step forward. Show me the world you live in with this showdown.’

closely.

grabbed the sword.

I had no intention of being distracted.

He is clearly weak.

Let go of arrogance and face reality.

flap-

The flag flew in the wind.

That moment.

Quiet rumble.

Fernando’s aura caused a powerful explosion.

* * *

I did my best from the start.

Fernando raised the aura and exploded it in both legs to maximize speed.

bump-

‘Starting in front’

last fight.

Roman’s method was studied.

Roman Dmitry was a very arrogant swordsman.

No matter what the opponent’s attack was, he never took more than three steps back.

hook.

stabbed the sword

The wind blew in the sword fluttering in an aura, and Roman diddge Fernando’s attack with a face with fluttering hair.

It was as expected.

Roman Dmitry only took a step back, and Fernando launched a chained attack he had prepared.

pop-

one side of the sword.

Aura exploded.

The direction of the attack was forcibly changed, and the sword that was moving in a straight line bent to the side and aimed at Roman’s neck.

It was an anomalous attack.

At the same time, Fernando raised his aura in case his opponent would dodge.

hook.

Roman leaned over.

It was an astonishingly flexible movement, and Fernando suppressed his startled emotions and immediately slashed Roman’s body.

It was a situation that was difficult to avoid.

Roman Dmitry showed extreme movements in the series of attacks, and it was impossible to dodge the slashing sword with his body fully reclined.

nevertheless.

with a bang.

turned his head

While looking straight at Fernando, he attacked as if nothing had happened this time.

And then.

hit straight up

Like a spring, Roman defied the force of gravity and attacked Fernando.

Quang-

arm bounced off

Aura clash.

Again, there was a difference in strength.

The moment Fernando clenched his teeth into a follow-up attack, strangely, Roman Dmitry did not attempt a finishing attack.

Tak Tak-

stepped back

widening the distance.

People cheered for the action-packed showdown, but Fernando knew his opponent didn’t finish him on purpose.

‘why?’

My stomach was boiling.

Fernando was planning to win from the beginning, and he launched a chained attack by boldly digging into the opponent’s distance.

Roman Dmitry’s move against him was perfect.

It would have been difficult to avoid if he attempted to attack the moment his arms were opened, but it is safe to say that it was Roman’s intention not to attack it.

mistake?

Absolutely not.

Judging from the preceding moves, Roman Dmitry is not a person to make such a mistake.

‘I’m happy with this.’

fast.

messed it up

Roman’s actions.

Always finish the opponent quickly.

Considering that even the best 40th place couldn’t last 30 seconds, it seemed that he did not intentionally end the match against himself.

Why? Because it’s the number 30 gatekeeper?

Now, in the process of going over 30 in earnest, is Roman Dmitry intending to send a clear message to the top performers?

whatever it was

My self-esteem was hurt.

He wanted to put aside the occasional confrontation, but Fernando had something more important than that.

‘It’s okay to trample on my pride. Show me the path to progress, even if it’s a glimmer of hope.’

Remaining in 30th place.

Self-esteem was long gone.

Fernando struck again.

Attacks attempted by exploding auras were systematic and threatening.

It was the most overwhelming among the swordsmen he had dealt with in terms of simple swordsmanship, but the power of the aura did not fully support the swordsmanship.

I also knew

The fact that the more the confrontation progressed, the more people laughed.

Fernando covered his ears and did his best to defeat Roman Dmitry.

Quang!

Again, the attack was blocked.

The timing was good.

It was an attack that should have worked in a common sense, but the power of the aura was not enough to break through Roman Dmitry’s defense.

I cried.

I was annoyed and angry.

But then.

[From now on, move your mana as I say. Then it will be easier.]

A voice that pierces your ears.

Recognizing that his opponent was Roman Dmitry, Fernando opened his eyes and looked at the man in front of him.

* * *

My mind was complicated.

what the .... kind of craft is this?

Head told him to ignore that bullshit, but Fernando unwittingly stopped the rushing attack.

[Four-Star Aura Swordsman Fernando. The reason you’re weak compared to your abilities is probably because the aura’s ejection isn’t smooth. An aura is a power that exerts destructive power with a powerful eruption. If you know your physical limitations and stick to the same methods, you will never progress in your life.]

The corners of my eyes trembled.

Roman came in.

Clearly, his lips did not move at all, but he could not understand how he was speaking to himself.

Kaang-

Kaka Kaka!

exchanges were made

Fernando was pushed unilaterally, and listened to Roman.

[Normal aura eruption refers to receiving mana and exploding mana through the passageway it has been ejected. However, there is not only one channel of mana. The swordsmen of the Salamander Continent all follow a uniform system and use the same channel of mana, but in reality, that means that it is not all. If the passage of mana you use was cramped from birth. Why didn’t you think of opening another passage?]

mana trick.

The skills he had been honing since he was a child formed a passage suitable for the eruption of the aura as the years went by.

The mana spread in the body moved along a certain path, so swordsmen of high rank were able to unleash powerful auras and explosive power due to their solid and wide passages.

Fernando was just like everyone else.

Forming a channel through a commonly known system, he saw the faint aura emanating from it and thought he had no talent.

that’s.

was different from the truth.

The system the world speaks of suppressed Fernando’s creativity.

[It is difficult to open a new path after many years have passed. However, it is worth a try.]

It was a sweet word.

completely enchanted

people’s eyes?

own honor?

It didn’t matter.

Fernando concentrated on Roman’s words, and did not care at all when it seemed as if he was being unilaterally teased.

Ready to embrace new changes.

Even after decades of hard work following the existing system, it collapsed like a sandcastle at the words of Roman, whom he did not know well.

It was so desperate.

I’m not sure I can trust Roman, but my instincts told me to follow her.

It was from then.

The map competition has begun.

Roman pushed Fernando and told him how to do it, and Fernando managed his mana accordingly.

one-sided match.

The showdown that seemed likely to come to an end within a minute has now reached 10 minutes.

When people express boredom.

sure-

Mana woke up.

Fernando’s eyes widened at the feeling of moving little by little towards the new passage.

‘ Was it really possible?’

It’s just a slight change.

I haven’t quite reached the stage of Aura Eruption yet, but I know how difficult it is to start a change.

eating.

Roman laughed.

That moment.

[Let’s just finish this.]

flash.

A sword that fills the field of vision.

Fernando raised his sword to block it, but a powerful shock shook his head.

puck-

* * *

how pissed off

Fernando came to his senses and looked up blankly at the sky.

‘Why didn’t I think of opening another passage?’

It was stupid.

Even though there was room for improvement, he failed to recognize it and repeated the same mistakes for decades.

In fact, it was a natural result.

It was difficult to deviate from common sense, and I didn’t know what the price would be if I mishandled mana.

It’s a dangerous challenge. So people had no choice but to follow the existing system, and Fernando thought that birth was the problem rather than the problem of the method.

Everyone else does well in the same way, and I couldn’t blame the way I did it if I was the only one having problems.

Besides.

In the beginning, the existing system was also born after a lot of trial and error.

“It’s terribly broken.”

“He said he was the number 30 gatekeeper. It just proves how great Roman is.”

“Roman Dmitry is definitely a monster. Still, you’re ranked 30th, how can you show me how to play tricks for 10 minutes? Fernando was completely pushed aside like a child. I’ve seen him get pushed back by Aura’s explosive power, but I think it’s the first time I’ve seen Fernando so helpless.

“That’s the class difference, huh?”

People were chattering.

Around Fernando.

There were still spectators who had not left.

Hearing their words, Fernando was instantly awakened.

‘Roman Dmitry… !’

People’s ridicule was not important.

A being who showed me a new path.

In order to somehow make use of new possibilities, he had to follow Roman Dmitry.

got up from his seat

Roman didn’t go far.

engulfed in crowds.

Roman Dmitry was moving.

People looked at Fernando pushing them by, and looked suspiciously at what was going on.

“Roman!”

fell flat on the floor.

Seeing Roman’s gaze looking down at him, Fernando shouted with a blood stick around his neck.

“Thank you so much for teaching me! I will never forget the grace of this Fernando, Roman Dmitry!”

murmur murmur.

“What is this?”

“Teaching?”

People were bewildered.

Roman versus Fernando.

It was a one-sided fight.

I thought Fernando looked unsightly, but what the .... is this?

Roman stopped walking.

Turning his head, he saw Fernando lying face down.

‘The top 30 gatekeeper.’

I wasn’t upset.

this situation.

May Fernando find himself.

Roman Dmitry was waiting from the beginning.
