Episode 322. The Third Lesson (2)
“Huh? Teacher Nadia, why do you have such a happy expression?”
Iris Paqueta asked with a puzzled look on her face, seeing Nadia’s expression that was noticeably different from before.
Nadia’s expression was really dark when the new semester started.
It was obvious something had happened, but I couldn’t bring myself to ask.
But recently, his expression has been quite good.
“Oh, the thing I was worried about worked out really well.”
“You looked like you were dying. Was that why you did that?”
“Yes, fortunately I got help.”
Nadia blushed in embarrassment as she said that.
“Hmm? This, this, did you think of the person who helped you? But why are your eyes red? Do you think this is love, teacher?”
Iris smiled slyly and poked Nadia.
“Oh, no. No, really. Was it Mr. Ethan who helped you?”
“Huh? Mr. Ethan?”
Iris asked back with a surprised expression.
“Did Mr. Ethan help you with that?”
“yes.”
Iris, who had been smiling secretly, smiled openly and deeply.
“This is love, this is love.”
“Oh, no! What are you talking about!”
Iris laughed out loud as if she found Nadia’s bewildered reaction amusing.

“Today’s class will be divided into two classes. It will be difficult for students who use archery to proceed together, so students who use archery will come to the front first.”
There were a total of fifteen students who wanted to use the bow as their main weapon.
Ethan placed a special golem in the place where the platform had been.
“Just hit here. Everyone, use your practiced routine to keep your composure and shoot. I’ll break your composure.”
As soon as Ethan gave the signal, the students took out their bows.
“Huh.”
“Huhhhh!”
Ethan told us to create our own routine, but he didn’t tell us to stop following his example of deep breathing.
Deep breathing is the most basic routine.
Just breathing regularly can help you regain some sense of calm.
“Breathing, blinking. You’ve created some great routines.”
Ethan smiled brightly.
Ethan instantly moved in front of the students who had pulled the bowstring. Ethan, floating in the air, changed the flow of air.
“It’s so easy to break.”
Ppaang-!
A faint mana spread out from Ethan with a cracking sound.
The mana that spread out around Ethan to the point where it was enough to cover the students took their breath away.
Then their routine was broken.
He was so flustered that he couldn’t even shoot the arrow properly, let alone dive in.
“I didn’t do anything special. You all know that mana is extremely limited. I just used a very basic method. Using mana to apply pressure. If your breathing is even slightly disturbed, the routine will be broken. It’s the easiest routine, but it’s also the most easily broken.”
As Ethan spoke, he corrected the postures of the fifteen people who had come forward, one by one.
‘It’s archery skills learned from Jumong and Robin Hood.’
In addition, Ethan had the trait of being a master of martial arts.
“And it’s too slow. It can’t even store mana properly. There are two of them, Pedri and Gabi. They have the family’s vision archery, so they are the best among the fifteen. That’s why you two should worry more.”
As soon as Ethan lifted his bow, three arrows shot out and accurately hit the special golem.
“Ha, I shot it once… … .”
“Why three legs… … .”
Ethan briefly explained the principles and how to operate the bow.
“Try it again while keeping up with the routine. You’ve seen it with other students, right? If you feel the pressure of mana, the dive will be broken in an instant. Then you’ll enter a vicious cycle of repeating the routine for the sake of the routine. Pick up the bow again.”
At Ethan’s words, fifteen students took up their bows again.
“Be quick, be precise, and focus on the bowstring. Shoot!”
Wedge-!
As the arrows were fired, Ethan’s wooden sword corrected their posture.
Fifteen people were simultaneously knocked out of their positions by Ethan’s wooden sword.
“Again. Hang on and shoot.”
Wheaaa …
This time I was able to shoot the arrow faster.
Bam-! Bam-!
Ethan hit seven of them in the shoulders this time and the rest in the waist and thighs.
“Again. One more time. This time with two feet.”
Wheaaa …
Even though I clearly fired two shots, it felt like I fired one shot.
“uh……?”
“What is this… … ?”
The students looked dumbfounded, even though they had shot themselves.
Only the students with the vision archery that Ethan had talked about were astonished when they realized what they had just done.
“Sir… … .”
“Use the posture and routine I helped you with to get used to it by next week’s class.”
Ethan let fifteen students in and called the rest forward.
“Today’s class will be like before.”
In addition to the routine, each person demonstrates their own specialty.
“Routines are for dives. Dives are for you to perfectly apply the skills you have in any situation. Routines, dives, skills. You have to think of these three as one.”
The students who came forward understood Ethan’s words and took up their positions.
“Each of you unfold one form. The magicians may immediately complete their magic circles.”
At Ethan’s words, the students used the routine they had been developing for a week: Dive deep and focus.
thud-!
But it wasn’t easy to dive in, because Ethan was determined to break the dive.
‘It’s easy to force a situation. So, we use all the situations that could happen in real life.’
Ethan is experienced. The stronger the enemy, the more he prioritizes breaking their composure.
Because of this, Ethan had many experiences where his dives were interrupted.
I can now use the dive function quite naturally, but up until now, I have been interrupted and failed to dive more than once.
‘This is quite an advanced technology.’
In fact, Ethan didn’t think he would be able to perfectly master this dive in a short period of half a year.
But at least I wanted to show that there is something called diving and that with this dive, you can focus in any situation.
‘Whether you acquire it or not, there is a world of difference between knowing and not knowing.’
“!”
“shit.”
“Fuck.”
Due to Ethan’s sabotage, the students were unable to dive properly.
Rather, there were many students whose routine was broken and their mental focus was disrupted, so much so that it would have been better not to even try.
Ethan took a quick look and then started making corrections.
“The most important thing is to stay calm. You just got caught up in the thought of doing a routine and did a routine for the sake of a routine, right?”
This is correction for each individual, not correction for the entire group.
“The routine itself was good. The dive was halfway done. I just need to take it one step further.”
“Yes, sir!”
“Alden, I was obsessed with diving in. Just let it flow naturally.”
“yes!”
“Lutein, you too. Flow like water. Remember that routine is just to keep your composure.”
“……yes!”
A black sword, a spear, a spear. Ethan’s correction changed depending on the weapon he had.
Students of magic in particular received very detailed corrections.
Since magic is a vast discipline, the methods of creating and unfolding magic circles are incredibly diverse and unique.
Magic is cast by adding personality to the classics.
Despite this, Ethan adjusted everything to suit each individual’s individuality.
‘This is where my experience of clearing Mepan dozens of times comes into play.’
All the students’ eyes sparkled. There was something they were all looking forward to in Ethan’s class.
And today, in this third class, their expectations were completely met.
Regardless of weapon.
It is possible to receive an education that is suitable for each student while properly considering their unique characteristics.
Ethan showed confidence because he was able to do something that other teachers could never imitate.
Because even if I know it, I can’t follow it.
“I said it was okay to take it easy, but I guess there should still be some tension? There are already several students who have completed the routine.”
At Ethan’s words, the students began to look around.
“Exactly ten people.”
Ten out of one hundred and fifty.
“I still need to polish it up a bit, but in the future, I will be able to teach students who can definitely use the dives I teach.”
At those words, ten people stepped forward.
Ethan seemed confident because he already knew the name without having to say it himself.
As Ethan gave the signal, ten students simultaneously dived in using the routine.
match-!
Among them, there was a student who dived in most clearly.
Oz Lasers.
The concentration of the returning prodigal son was quite sharp. After clapping his hands once, he drew his sword quite naturally.
Already dived in with applause.
Oz’s swordsmanship was displayed while he was in a state of complete concentration.
Explosive speed and destructive power.
The most distinctive feature was the sword that could grow longer for a moment.
It was the cloud sword technique that the Razor family was proud of. The Razor family, which once enjoyed its heyday in the Magic Empire, became famous for this cloud sword technique.
Shaaaaak-.
The cloud swordsmanship of Oz that was displayed by Dive had a magical power that made one look dumbfounded.
Cloud swordsmanship was performed gracefully from the first to the fifth form by Oz’s hands.
Oz, who had finished the fifth form, slowly took a deep breath. Before he knew it, the dive was over.
“Well done, Oz.”
Ethan’s voice pierced through Oz.
“Did I… do well, me?”
“Yeah, that was a great dive.”
Oz needed nothing else.
compliment.
Encouraging words to tell someone they did a good job.
Oz needed something like that.
Oz stared blankly at his sword.
The students became nervous as they looked at such an odd prospect.
Oz, who had been abandoned for a year, returned and showed himself in such a state, so I couldn’t just sit still.
‘Oz was definitely the trigger.’
“Okay, let’s go again.”
Ethan closed his bloodshot eyes once and opened them again.
Training 150 people was extremely costly.
I had to close my eyes right away to recover from my red, bloodshot eyes, and I was so tired that I almost lost consciousness as all the strength in my body drained away.
‘But this will allow each of us to do our part.’
The three apostles will soon come to the academy.
Naturally, there will be enormous confusion and damage.
But Ethan can’t protect everyone.
So what you have to do is to teach them as much as possible and improve their skills.
‘So that not a single one of those I taught will die.’
