Chapter 121:

It was late at night, far past the hour of twelve.

Otto trained with Kairos without using mana, solely relying on his wooden sword.

He had learned from Elises guidance that there was more to mastering Invincible Swordsmanship than just using mana and applying more force.

The problem was that Kairos wasnt a very good teacher.

Honestly, as a teacher, it was close to a zero.

*Wham!*

Ugh!

Otto was struck in the head by Kaiross wooden sword and fell to the ground, vomiting blood.

Good, Ill beat the crap out of you!

Argh!

Hehehehehehe!

Kairos took this opportunity to swing his sword indiscriminately at the fallen Otto, landing a series of brutal blows.

Hey you lunatic, this isnt training, its just Ack, stop fucking hitting me!

Otto scrambled backwards, putting some distance between him and Kairos, and then yelled.

Its training, you know, practicing, not a beatdown!

Youll eventually learn from taking a beating!

Ill break my bones before I can even learn, ugh!

Kairos didnt give Otto a chance to perform his sword techniques freely.

Once he scored a hit, he was supposed to pull out, but he didnt, and instead just continued to whack Otto with his wooden sword.

Be gentle. Once you hit me, stop. Im seriously gonna die.

Hmph! You have poor mental fortitude!

What does this have to do with my mental strength? Ive been training so hard that Im going to be sick and die, so you should treat me moderately!

You weakling.

Youre crazy, people arent made of steel, you think hitting them will make them stronger, ouch!

Otto was exasperated by Kairos inability to understand his words, but he had no choice.

At the moment, there was no other opponent as strong as Kairos.

Be gentle. Easy. Be careful. Itll be better if you do it in moderation.

Then it will be training?

Its not just about forcing things. Try to get me to consciously use the swordsmanship imprinted in my subconscious.

Hmm.

Kairos expression became complicated.

It was like he was trying to solve a complicated mental puzzle, and it made Otto pull his hair out in frustration.

Ah, I see.

Did he really understand?

Ill try Ill try to be reasonable.

Please.

With that, Otto lunged at Kairos again.

The next morning.

Otto had only three hours of sleep, and then he was back to training.

His latest training partner was Camille.

Both Camille and Otto were similar in pure skill, so they were pretty good matchups for each other.

Im moving.

Come.

After his morning training session with Camille, Otto took a moment to rest his weary body before heading out to train with Kairos again.

When he was really tired, he only spent half an hour or so training, and then he would spend the rest of the day training from early morning until late at night.

[Alert: Proficiency level in [Invincible Swordsmanship] has increased!]

[Alert: Proficiency level in [Invincible Swordsmanship] has increased!]

[Alert: Proficiency level in [Invincible Swordsmanship] has increased!]

This has increased the level of proficiency in [Invincible Swordsmanship] in a short period of time.

However, the current 2-star accomplishment was by no means enough to reach 3-star.

No matter how much he had been cramming, the boundaries were clear.

Bringing out the true essence of Invincible Swordsmanship, which was deeply imprinted in his subconscious, was no easy feat.

If it were a game, there would be no need to practice swordsmanship like this, instead one could merely level up and be done with it

Because this could be real.

Otto thought back to his conversation with Quran, and decided that this world he was now living and breathing in was not just a game.

Quran was a dragon, the wisest creature in the world.

His words had a nuance that hinted at something, so this world wasnt really a game.

Of course, this could only be confirmed after Quran returned to his senses and they had a proper talk.

Anyway, three days passed, and the day Elise was scheduled to meet him finally arrived.

But she didnt show up until midnight, after the day had passed.

Your Highness.

*Hmph!*

Otto was startled out of his thoughts by the sound of Camilles voice.

Amazed at the sight of the growing child, he was even more astonished than seeing a chestnut shell.

Even the smallest sound startled him.

What are you so surprised about, Your Highness, what kind of sunfish are you?

Huh?

Dont you know a sunfish? A giant fish that lives in the sea.

I dont know?

Yes, there is such a fish.

Camille thought Otto looked like a sunfish, freaking out at the slightest noise.

Come now, get some sleep.

Camille suggested that Otto should retire to bed.

Youd better get some sleep if you want to be in good shape when the lady arrives, havent you been up for three days and nights already?

Otto trained like a madman for three days and nights in the company of Camille at daylight.

And at night, he trained with Kairos for over 20 hours.

For the past three days, hed been practicing with only a couple hours of sleep a night.

Why?

Because he didnt want to die.

The need to survive was stronger than the need for sleep or physical exhaustion.

But what if Im too tired to perform? he asked.

Well, then youll die, right?

So get some sleep, even if its just for an hour. Its almost midnight, and it seems like Elise is running late anyway. It wouldnt be strange to be late for a day or two, would it?

I suppose so?

Otto took Camilles advice and went to bed to rest his eyes for a while.

As Camille had said, if he didnt perform well because he was tired, Elise might be so enraged that she would wring his neck.

Lets get some shut eye.

Sleep was hard to come by due to the tension, but he closed his eyes and tried his best.

Just as his eyelids were half closed.

*Boom!*

Suddenly, the door exploded into pieces.

Huh?!

Otto was so startled that he almost stopped breathing from a heart attack.

A bloody figure.

Elise, whose entire body was covered in blood, spoke up.

Theres still one second left.

One second later.

*Peep, peep!*

A cuckoo popped out of the clock, announcing midnight.

Spa Spare me!

As soon as Otto saw Elise, he fell flat on his back and pleaded for mercy.

The reason was simple.

What the hell has she gotten herself into!

She was covered in blood from head to toe.

There were bits of apparent human flesh and strands of hair stuck all over her uniform.

Even the swords scabbard was drenched in blood, suggesting that it hadnt been long since it was used to cut someone.

The military uniform was covered in blood that had long since congealed, so he couldnt imagine how many people she had killed.

Why are you suddenly groveling and begging on the ground? Are you implying that Im going to kill you for no reason at all?

Elise asked, shaking her head.

Because you came here looking like that!!!

She appeared like a demon fresh out of hell!

Obviously, Elise has a different mindset than most people.

With that kind of mentality and outlook, its no wonder that she could fight near-death battles on the other side of the Wall every day

Well, that, you know. Youve got blood all over you.

Ah. This.

Elise took a quick look at her reflection, then gave him a look of realization.

I was in a hurry to get here, so I only took off my armor. There wasnt enough time to shower and change into proper clothes.

On the other side of the Wall?

Yes.

Is that why youre still dripping with blood?

I encountered bandits while crossing the border.

No doubt this was the crisis of a lifetime for those bandits, and their unluckiest day.

They demanded that I sleep with them. I told them I couldnt because I had a fianc, but they wouldnt listen.

Oh dear.

So?

They ignored my words and tried to rape me.

C-Crazy.

I couldnt let them get away with it, so I killed them. If it werent for them, I wouldve made it in by lunchtime.

Otto suddenly found something odd about Elises words, and asked.

But it took you a whole day to defeat those bandits, Elise? Wouldnt a mere minute have been enough?

How strong are these bandits that it took Elise a full day to defeat them?

Are they the strongest bandits in the universe?

While I was at it, I hunted down every last one of them and eliminated them. The last one was hiding in the bathroom. It wasnt a pleasant experience looking into a maggot-infested toilet, but I figured Id finish what I started.

Well, youve done a good job.

Frighteningly strong.

More brutal than anyone else once she draws her sword.

Also frighteningly tenacious.

The problem is, shes the strongest character in the world.

Ive made it in time, but it seems to be quite late. Do you think it would be possible for you to offer me a place to spend the night?

Sure, of course, Absolutely! Ill make it the absolute finest!

Thats not necessary. Just a little room to keep the wind out and a small field bed for this one body, thats all.

But, youve traveled a long way, you deserve a warm, comfortable place to sleep.

If I sleep that comfortably, Ill lose my strength.

What?

A warriors bed is nothing more than a chunk of hard rock and a piece of blanket to sleep on.

.

Unnecessary luxuries only disturb the mind and body.

With that, Elise turned and left Ottos bedroom.

Why is the door broken?

You broke it down a little while ago.

Did I?

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Elises otherwise expressionless face.

Theres a subtle touch of bitterness in her.

I apologize. Ill make it up to you.

No, its okay!

No, its not. If one does some destruction, one has to make reparations. In my haste to get to you, I forgot that I broke the door.

Really, its fine, this much can be done on the royal budget.

No, it doesnt. I will reimburse you.

Its really fine.

Wait a minute.

With that, Elise rummaged in her pockets and pulled out a small, worn coin purse.

He wondered how long it had been in use, and it was so worn that the leather ends were completely frayed and crumbling.

And.

It has a cartoon bunny on it?

He was expecting a different kind of wallet, but it was pink and had a cute little bunny on it.

Although he didnt recognize it, it was obvious that Elise had been using it since she was very young.

One, two.

Elise took the coins out of the old bunny purse and counted them.

Then.

Hmm.

Elise thought for a moment, then looked back at Otto and asked.

Maybe.

What?

Credit is that possible?

Credit?

I only have Five Bron.

Elise blushed slightly in embarrassment.

[Bron].

A coin made with a percentage of bronze added to an alloy made of copper.

Not exactly precise, but its worth about a thousand Korean won.

Five brons?

About five thousand won.

To think that the worlds most powerful figure, Elise, could only afford to buy a couple of loaves of bread and a glass of milk from a street vendor.

How can someone from such a noble family be so frugal?

Camille, who had been silent, admired Elises frugality.

Then lets start with the borrowing certificate.

Otto unconsciously reached for the white paper.

No, you lunatic!

Camille hurriedly elbowed Otto in the gut.
