Episode 47 Swordsman (2)
5.
What is a sword?
Some say the sword is a weapon for killing people, while others say the sword is a weapon for self-defense.
Considering both opinions, the end result was that the sword was a weapon.
A weapon was ultimately a tool used to fight.
Tools were like extensions of the body.
In other words, the sword is no different from my body.
I came to this conclusion:
People called my conclusion the unity of the body and the sword.
Cheaeng-!
Sword body, Ban Isu’s sword and my sword collided.
I continued to swing my sword while watching Ban Isu’s eyebrows twitch.
I could clearly see the path of the sword with my eyes, and I could clearly see Ban Yi-su’s movements with my hwan-eye.
Chang, Chaeng!
Still, I couldn’t cut Ban Isu. Sword God, Ban Isu said while leisurely blocking my sword.
“Is this your first time swinging a sword?”
I thought about how to answer that question.
In this episode, it was my first time swinging a sword. However, this was not the case in previous episodes.
Who said that a man’s dream is to become a prosecutor?
There was a time when I thought a sword was the best weapon, so I swung it with a lot of effort because I wanted to swing it in a cool way.
As a result, I was painfully aware that I had no talent for swordsmanship.
So in the end, what I chose was bare fists.
Maybe it’s because I learned Taekwondo before I was possessed, but fighting with bare hands was more comfortable and suited me better than fighting with weapons.
“Yes, this is my first time.”
Since I had to give an answer first, I answered Geomshin’s question.
It was my first time swinging it in this episode, so it wasn’t a lie.
Ban Isu’s expression became serious at my words.
“Nonsense!”
At that time, senior Minji Choi, who was watching us, shouted.
“It’s your first time holding a sword, and you’re saying that it’s a new sword union?!”
Choi Min-ji looked shocked when she saw me swinging the sword so naturally.
When I heard those words, I felt sorry for Choi Minji.
Actually, if you think about it, this talent was senior Minji Choi’s talent.
‘But I have to do this at least for Ban Isu to contact Choi Kang.’
My goal is to become the main character of Part 1 of ‘Ise’. It was about meeting the strongest.
To do that, he needed the help of the other seven heroes. And Ban Isu was a macho who enjoyed raising awakened people.
“Ha!”
I swung my sword again.
As I watched Ban Isu’s sword strike, aiming precisely for the loophole that he deliberately exposed, I thought it would be nice if Ban Isu would counterattack just once.
‘You have to be attacked to receive the sword spirit’s talent… … .’
Cheaeng!
“Hmm, I’ve thought about it before, but it’s a talent I really want to develop.”
Sorry, this talent. It is the talent of someone who will later become your disciple.
“But, I felt it clearly through this inspection. “A sword suits you better than a sword.”
Shoo!
As Ban Isu said that, his sword trembled.
With just one strike, my sword flew up into the sky, and with the second strike, I almost got decapitated.
“Look. “Even though it was clearly a critical situation where you lost your sword, you have already found yourself in my arms.”
Almost getting decapitated by the second sword strike, I dodged the sword and instead dug into Ban Isu’s arms to reduce reach.
The best defense is attack. I was about to extend my fist towards his body, but I stopped my fist when Ban Isu said.
“The prosecutor doesn’t move like you.”
At those words, I bowed my head. It was a complete defeat for the prosecutor.
“Thank you for the teachings.”
A smile was blooming on my lips as I said that.
Because a system message was flashing before my eyes.
[I was physically attacked by an awakened person. Talent ‘transfer’ is activated. Receive the awakened talent. The slot is full. Would you like to delete one talent and add the talent ‘Divine Sword’ to the slot?]

“Still, it was said that the more talents you have, the better. “I’ll teach you something while you’re in the guild.”
“thank you!”
Ban Isu looked satisfied with my answer.
I raised my head and saw senior Choi Min-ji looking at me enviously, and said to Ban Yi-su.
“Sword God. “I have one more favor to ask you.”
“hmm? “What is it?”
“Can senior Minji Choi over there also take lessons with me?”
At my words, Ban Yi-soo turned to senior Choi Min-ji.
“Hmm?”
“I daresay you will have a better taste for teaching than I do.”
At my words, Ban Yi-soo called senior Choi Min-ji.
“This is also fate, but can I take a look at your sword?”
Senior Minji Choi’s eyes sparkled at those words.
“yes! of course!”
I chuckled as I watched the two priests aim their swords at each other.
In the third time, the two met a little earlier.
What that meant was that senior Minji Choi could also become stronger faster than in the second round.
I thought it was a good thing.
Now that the future is changing all the time, I also needed to prepare for the future.
As my colleagues became stronger, it became my strength, so I looked at senior Minji Choi with a happy expression.
“Hmm, you. “Are you in a relationship like that with that woman?”
Startle.
When I heard a thin voice coming from next to me, I turned to the side and saw a girl with her hair braided into two pigtails.
“you… … .”
“Oh, sorry for startling you. “My name is Ban Hye-jin.”
I visibly stiffened at the girl’s words.
I never thought I would meet this child here.
“Is there something on my face?”
I shook my head at Ban Hye-jin’s words.
I knew this kid very well.
Geomshin, Ban Isu’s daughter, Ban Hyejin.
‘Now that I think about it, it was just around this time.’
As the future changed, I met Ban Hye-jin, whom I would not have met before.
Why I never met her.
That was because she, who had a chronic illness, died soon after.
At that time, the sound of swords clashing with swords was heard.
Cheaeng!
Ban Yi-su and Choi Min-ji were clashing swords in earnest.
While watching this, I glanced at Ban Hye-jin.
As Ban Isu said, this too was fate.
If we hadn’t come to the Sword God Guild, we wouldn’t have met Ban Hye-jin.
She would have died lonely in this episode as well.
If only she could be saved… … .
I felt like I could owe Geomshin a debt.
By now, Geomshin is probably aiming for the gate underneath Awakening High School.
However, even the compensation obtained there could not cure Ban Hye-jin.
A way to save Ban Hye-jin. Only I knew that.
Because among my combination talents, I had a combination talent that could treat Ban Hye-jin.
I said this while thinking that I had to save Ban Hye-jin in this episode.
“My name is Lee Si-woo.”
***
After sparring with Minji Choi, Geomshin spoke with a satisfied expression.
“Okay, I passed. Don’t tell your principal. “I’ll teach you how to use a sword, at least while you’re here.”
“thank you!”
We bowed our heads and walked out of the training hall.
Ban Hye-jin asked Ban I-su, who was watching.
“Both of you, I guess you liked it?”
“Girls tend to have more talent with swords than boys.”
“Hmm, but the stronger one is the male one?”
Ban Yi-su looked surprised at Ban Hye-jin’s words.
This was because his daughter rarely told anyone that she looked strong.
“Hehe, is that so?”
“yes. “I remembered the name Lee Si-woo.”
“Hmm, just like the video I saw on each tube, that guy is really smart.”
“fit… … .”
Ban Hye-jin, who was about to answer those words, suddenly clutched her chest.
“Huh.”
“daughter!”
Ban Yi-su quickly placed his hand on Ban Hye-jin’s back. As I blew on her back, Ban Hye-jin’s expression became relaxed.
“… Thank you. “It’s okay now.”
“but… … .”
“It’s okay. I guess I overdid it. “I think it will be okay if I go in and rest.”
Ban Yi-su looked at Ban Hye-jin with a sad expression.
Ban Hye-jin, who was born weak, was having seizures more frequently.
I tried numerous methods and even called Yoo Da-hee to ask for a medical examination.
They said there was no way.
But Ban Isu couldn’t give up.
I wanted to somehow find a way to save my daughter.
Ban Isu thought as he looked at his daughter sadly.
‘The gate in the basement of Gakseong High School… That gate is our last hope.’
I felt sorry for my friend Won Tae-jin, but family was more important than friends.

“But how did you get the opportunity to learn sword skills from the Sword God?”
When Senior Choi Min-ji came out and asked a question, I held up my smartphone.
A video uploaded by Yoo Ah-ram was prominently featured in popular videos that appeared as soon as you turned on your smartphone.
“Thanks to this video.”
“Each tube?”
“yes. Hero Ban Isu left a comment in the comments of this video. Thanks to you, I was given a great opportunity.”
“Maybe I should thank the channel owner?”
I nodded at Senior Minji Choi’s words.
“I was already thinking about repaying the favor.”
I was thinking of asking Yoo Ah-ram to upload another video to his channel.
Perhaps with just that one video, the number of subscribers will double.
If Yoo Ah-ram can establish himself as a YouTuber, there will be nothing more worthy of his title.
‘The angler in this episode will be an online angler.’
There was work to do before that.
I headed to the room assigned to me by the Sword God Guild.
***
“During the second round, I saw a lot of this talent.”
When I arrived at the single room, I sat down on the bed and opened the status window.
Minji Choi’s talent, the talent of Geomshin, which she received after getting rid of ‘Geomdo’, caught my eye.
[Transferred talent]
-New Sword (S Class): You can summon a new sword for 5 minutes.
When I saw that talent, I smiled brightly.
Because this talent was a special talent, unlike other talents.
I used my talent ‘Divine Sword’ without hesitation.
“Activate the Divine Sword.”
[Use the sub-talent ‘Divine Sword’ of the talent ‘Transfer’. A divine sword is summoned for 5 minutes.]
Keying.
With a sparkling light, a brilliantly shining sword was summoned before my eyes.
The reason I summoned this divine sword even though I wasn’t fighting was simple.
-What? Sibeol. Who are you?
Godsword, Godsword.
It was the name of the Ego Sword that would help me a lot in the future.
There wasn’t much time.
I quickly picked up the cutter knife on the desk.
-huh? What are you doing?
Seeing me suddenly thrusting a cutter knife at me, the divine sword Godsword tilted its sword.
This raises doubts about the sword system.
I grinned while looking at that.
“As the owner of the divine sword, the God Sword, I command you.”
-What?! Why are you my master?!
“For the God Sword and God Sword, move the soul house with the cutter knife I am holding.”
-Red color?! What are you?! What are you talking about, using a chant that you can only use once?!
I didn’t care whether Godsword, the Godsword, shouted or not, so I held the cutter knife to Godsword, the Godsword.
OK.
Flash!
-Sigh!! What on earth are you!!
I smiled as I watched the sword that was the God Sword, the God Sword, rolling around on the ground.
“me? “The person who will be your master from now on.”
In any case, the Ego Sword the Sword God had and the Ego Sword I summoned were different entities.
Therefore, by transferring Godsword’s ego with a cutter knife, I was able to permanently attribute Swordsword’s talent to me.
