The worst and strongest villain. I became a narrow-eyed character Arsene Adel. DBT,Korean,Novel,Translation,Academy,NEVDA,Fantasy,Possession,Assassin
For a moment, I lost my hearing.
That fact shocked me greatly.
The recoil of the Chaos magic.
It was too great of a penalty.
For a whole week, I repeatedly studied the penalty of Chaos.
At first, it was my hearing.
Then, my sense of taste and touch.
And then, I even lost my sight.
Of course, it wasn't a complete loss.Exactly two hours later, the lost sense would recover on its own.
'Fortunately, it's only a short-term loss, but there's the problem of not knowing which sense I'll lose.'
It's certain that I lose a sense as a penalty when using Absolute Stealth.
However, I couldn't choose which sense I would lose.
'And the duration is only about 3 seconds…….'
That was the result I found out through the watch.
Exactly 3 seconds had passed after I used Absolute Stealth.
'It's a real last resort.'
Losing a sense in a combat situation is like committing suicide.
It was a skill that could only be used on the assumption that I would definitely kill my opponent.
That was the conclusion I came to.
For the time being, I'll seal Absolute Stealth.
'...It's all for nothing.'
I had finally gained a powerful ability, but I couldn't use it.
I tried to graft the Chaos attribute onto my other traits as well, but...
Things weren't going smoothly.
I even failed to manifest the Chaos attribute.
'Then, what I need to do from now on is…….'
The Chaos attribute, which left me with only regret, was put on the back burner.
Then, I needed to focus on my original strengths.
Swordsmanship and the amount of mana.
'The tasks I need to solve in the future are these two.'
Let's say I drink an elixir for mana.
But what should I do about swordsmanship?
It was a difficult problem.
Ares, the swordsmanship instructor, had not allowed the students to even hold a sword until now.
He only made them increase their stamina.
Just like now.
“…….”
As usual, the students were running around the training ground.
In Ares' first class, only a few students were able to finish the course.
But now, everyone was able to finish it.
Ares nodded his head for the first time.
“That's enough physical training.”
At those words, I raised my hand and stopped the students.
“Halt, it's the instructor's orders.”
Creak-.
The students stopped in their tracks at my hand signal.
At this, a vein popped out on Ares' forehead.
It had been like this ever since I became the class president.
‘What’s he so dissatisfied about?’
Ares has been expressing his displeasure with me being the class president with his whole body.
At first, I was taken aback, but now I’ve adapted.
I glanced at Ares indifferently.
Ares narrowed his eyes in displeasure at my reaction, but soon realized that many of the students were looking at him and continued speaking.
“From now on, we will reduce the amount of time spent on physical training and incorporate swordsmanship lessons.”
““Ooh.””
The students cheered.
The anticipation of finally being able to learn proper swordsmanship.
I also looked at Ares with eyes full of anticipation.
“First, let me show you a demonstration.”
Clang.
Ares drew his sword from its scabbard.
Then he pointed the sword at me.
"Class president, come forward."
“……Understood.”
Is he trying to humiliate me?
I felt uneasy, but I had no choice but to follow the instructor’s orders.
“Can you infuse mana into your sword?”
“Yes, I can.”
I nodded.
I wasn’t at the level where I could draw out sword energy, but I could use mana to strengthen my body and sword.
There’s no such concept as a Sword Master or Expert in the Demon Realm.
To put it simply.
You can think of it as a line like a circle.
It’s different from human mages.
For the Demon race, the size and type of tattoo, not the circle, signifies strength.
Swordsmanship is the same.
While humans classify the strength of swordsmen as Sword Masters or Experts.
The Demon race is judged by their swordsmanship skills and how much mana they can infuse into their swords.
‘In the first place, being able to infuse mana into a weapon is not an easy task.’
Probably most of the students won’t be able to infuse mana into their weapons.
Thanks to my genius talent for assassination, I was able to infuse mana naturally.
To make it easier to understand, let’s compare it to the human world.
‘A little less than Expert level.’
It wasn’t a bad growth rate.
Since Peltz, who attacked me in the human world to kill me, was about Expert upper level.
Peltz is at the level of an instructor at the Imperial Academy.
That’s why I was curious.
How strong is Ares, who is similar in level to Peltz?
Clang.
I also took out my usual weapon, the dagger, Fang of Darkness.
Ares spoke to me, pointing his sword at me.
“Attack me using mana, I won’t use mana.”
“Then are you saying that you will only use swordsmanship?”
“That’s right.”
“……Huh, I understand.”
