Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 186

Elf looked around blankly with a wet face.

The elf’s face turned pale when he saw me.

His face, which was already pure white, turned bluish.

Behind me, his companion was leaning against each other’s backs.

Some kind of magic had been used to make the ground rise above their bodies and eat their lower bodies, and tentacles that made them uncomfortable just by looking at them were wrapped around their bodies.

His eyes rolled and he looked to the side.

The amount of bloodstone powder they had worked so hard to bring and poured out had almost decreased.

How did this happen?

As he continued to roll in embarrassment, his eyes were stuck between bloodstones.

‘What on earth is that?’

His eyes trembled violently as if an earthquake had occurred as he looked at Mu-myeong.

The nameless figure in his field of vision was literally sucking up the bloodstone.

A vein appeared on the nameless sword body. The veins, as red as the bloodstone, continued to squirm, and each time the veins wriggled, the amount of bloodstone also decreased.

I held his head in a daze as it was difficult to understand how this had happened.

“Why do you keep looking at me like that?”

I forced him to make eye contact with me, but even with me in front of him, his eyes wandered in all directions.

But I couldn’t stop eye contact, so I gave up making eye contact with him and let go of my hand that was holding his head.

Instead, he pointed to Mu-myeong, who was holding his neck and sucking the bloodstone deliciously.

To be precise, he asked, pointing to the bloodstone powder that was filled near the unknown area.

“Where did you get those?”

“….”

As soon as I asked, his trembling body subsided as if it were a lie.

In that state, I bit my lower lip.

‘What is this? It’s the level where a person has changed.’

It wasn’t just about not saying anything and keeping my mouth shut.

Just as people’s tendencies do not change easily, the same was true for elves.

The elf, who had just been swaying in my hands like a reed blowing in the wind, was now holding on firmly.

His eyes, which had been shaking mercilessly and looking in all directions, focused on the bloodstone, and his body, which had been shaking violently, calmed down to the point where there was not even the slightest tremor.

“I guess you’re not going to tell me?”

The elf didn’t answer.

I bit my lip tightly as if I was never going to answer.

I bit so hard that my lower lip burst and blood flowed.

“It doesn’t really matter if you don’t say anything.”

There is no need for me to use my strength to keep my mouth shut.

Even if it’s not me, I have hatchling magic, so why would I do that?

There is a way to achieve very efficient performance, so there is no reason for me to relax.

“Oh… the absorption speed is faster than yesterday. “I ate up so much so quickly.”

As I was looking around, I laughed out loud as I saw Nameless eating a lot of bloodstone powder before I knew it.

There was quite a lot of it, but the large amount of bloodstone powder disappeared and Nameless was left alone, calling out to me.

It seemed as if Moo-myeong was still hungry and pointed to where the bloodstone powder was.

“no. “That’s later.”

I pulled out the cotton, stroked it as if I was handling a baby, and placed it in the sheath.

Then he pointed to the bag containing the unused bloodstone powder and said to the hatchling:

“Can you keep this for me?”

The wizards I know basically had subspace.

Of course, those wizards were wizards of the 4th circle or higher, but hatchlings had long since surpassed that level.

-Of course! Because I am great!

As communication became easier than before, Hatchling was able to express his feelings more freely.

The hatchling raised his paw and pointed at the bag of bloodstone powder.

Patter.

The bloodstone bag was lifted into the air, and the dirt on the bag fell to the ground.

All the bloodstone batteries floated in the air and disappeared without a trace.

The hatchling had put it into subspace.

After all, being a wizard was essential when going somewhere.

It’s so easy to have just one wizard.

“Hi! “How!”

At that time, the elf who was lying on the ground was foaming at the bloodstone bag that had disappeared in the air.

When I saw that, I thought, Oops.

Now that I think about it, the hatchling has currently disappeared.

He was hiding himself so perfectly that not even the sword master, Count Warrug, could notice.

No matter how sensitive the elf’s senses were, they were not as sensitive as the Sword Master.

‘I didn’t think of this.’

There were many obstacles to saying I did it.

First of all, I spoke to the hatchling.

And the wave that was felt as the hatchling opened the subspace was not aura, but mana.

The exclusive property of wizards.

Basic common sense states that mana and aurors cannot coexist.

I used Aura, and the elves who knew it could not help but be surprised by the sudden reverberation of magical power.

‘Should I just kill him?’

If an elf speaks poorly to other elves, I get in trouble.

In that case, I think it would be better for me to kill him.

‘No, no matter how elf he is, would he believe the words of a traitor?’

Above all, there is no evidence that I used magic.

Even if the elves had a tendency to fight among themselves, there was no way they would take care of their compatriot who harmed their mother.

On the contrary, if you kill them without mercy, they will kill you.

To them, the World Tree is their god and everything.

It was questionable whether the elves who messed with the world tree would be treated as compatriots.

‘Let’s just leave it alone. He’s going to die anyway, so what can he do by talking about it? It’s actually a relief if I don’t get treated like a crazy person.’

I think that would be fun in its own way.

An elf who is treated like a crazy person by his own people.

That stimulated interest in its own way.

“By the way, I’m really curious where you got the bloodstones.”

At least once I tried to find the culprits.

To obtain additional bloodstones.

However, that period was unintentionally brought forward.

That’s not a problem, but it was actually good.

Because you don’t have to waste time.

“Stop walking around like that, come here.”

-Why are you calling me?

I pointed to the elf who was looking at me like I was crazy as I spoke into the air.

I said to the hatchling, ignoring him.

“Isn’t there some kind of magic that can control minds?”

“…!”

The elf is startled by my words.

I shook my head back and forth trying to figure out who I was talking to.

But he couldn’t find it, and fear appeared on his face.

Apparently I was talking to someone, but I couldn’t find that person.

However, he was so nervous that he couldn’t possibly have thought that I was talking into the air.

-Um… what does that mean?

The hatchling tilted her head as if my words were difficult.

“Can you make me tell the truth?”

-there is! I can do it!

The hatchling said he understood and approached the elf.

The elf trembled at the sight of an invisible threat and looked around with anxious eyes.

The hatchling’s mana surrounded him.

“Uh oh! no!”

He rolled around on the ground holding his head.

What do I hate so much?

A lot of red blood vessels appeared on his face as he rolled around on the ground.

Perhaps because the skin was so white, the red blood vessels stood out even more.

“100 million…!”

The elf’s struggle ended with a final scream.

The elf, whose body had been grotesquely bent, slowly began to stand up.

His arms and legs, which had been twisted a lot, returned to their original form and his eyes were empty as he stood up completely.

“This is okay, right?”

-When I withdraw mana, it returns to its original state. Reap?

“no. Leave it alone. “If that’s you, then that’s probably it.”

The dragon’s magic is close to omnipotent, if not omnipotent.

Even with hatchling magic, there are almost no mistakes.

That’s what hatchlings are like.

“Then can I ask now?”

-Yes.

The hatchling nodded confidently.

I trusted the hatchling and asked the elf the simplest questions.

“What is your name?”

“Rumar.”

“What does that name mean?”

“Bringing happiness.”

“Your actions do not match your name.”

“….”

The elf answered exactly what I asked.

Seeing that gave me even more confidence.

After finishing the fairly light questions, I asked a proper question in earnest.

“Why did you betray the World Tree?”

“I received a promise that I could escape the South.”

Leaving the South?

Wasn’t the forest everything for elves? Even though each person has a different personality.

I didn’t really understand why an elf who had never left the forest wanted to leave the south even after leaving his hometown.

“Why are you trying to get out of the South?”

“Because I want to see a lot of things.”

“How many elves in total betrayed with you?”

“Five people.”

I glanced at the elf tied to the tentacles.

There are only three elves.

Even with all the elves with me, there was still one person missing.

“What about the other one?”

“It’s somewhere else.”

“where? And with whom?”

“With the tribal chief from the Kairos tribe.”

“Then how did you get the bloodstone powder?”

“The Kairos tribe provided us with as much support as we needed.”

“There must have been a price to pay?”

“Mother’s Fall.”

Wow… these guys are really crazy.

No matter how much I want to escape the South, I can’t believe I’m trying to kill my mother for betraying her.

No matter how much they do it for their own benefit, these guys are just not good at it.

“Where is that place?”

“The tip of the South where all the mines are located.”

“Can you guide us?”

“….”

The elf stands up without saying a word.

I stumbled as I got up, probably still feeling the shock I received, but after a while, the elf started to walk.

‘It’s so sudden.’

I just asked if he could guide me, but I didn’t ask him to guide me.

Well, I guess it’s not a bad thing since I can save my words.

The other elves are properly tied up.

Unless they are stronger than the hatchling, they cannot escape the clutches of the hatchling.

Among them there was none stronger than the hatchling.

Perhaps they were being paid for betraying the World Tree, but they couldn’t even summon spirits.

If you knew how to use spirits, you wouldn’t be defeated by me so easily.

“Just in case, use detection magic.”

-I get it!

The hatchling nodded willingly and spread his mana widely.

Although the elf is under the hatchling’s spell, we don’t know what will happen to humans.

I walked after the elf.

The elf may have been following my pace, but it moved at a reasonable pace, neither too fast nor too slow.

The direction the elf was heading was opposite to the entrance to the World Tree.

I squeezed my body through a very small gap and entered the tangled bushes.

I didn’t think it was strange to act in secret because I didn’t want other elves to discover me.

How far did it go like that?

The elf suddenly stopped. Then he turned to me and stared quietly.

“Are you here?”

“….”

I looked ahead, leaving the elf behind who didn’t respond.

“What are you doing here?”

I bit my lip tightly at the scene unfolding before my eyes.
