#62. Swordsmanship Lesson of the Gods (1)
ââ¦Hmm.â
Damdeok barely got his throbbing body up.
Athena is sitting on a rock and cleaning a spear blade, and Ares is doing push-ups with a piece of metal on his back.
âOh, youâre awake?â
Hercules, who was wringing out a wet towel in the corner, grinned at Damdeok.
I had squeezed it so hard that the wet towel was strangely dry and twisted.
âWhy the wet towel?â
âah? âI was trying to cool you down because you had a fever.â
ââ¦Did I faint?â
I glanced at Athena, but she was engrossed in cleaning the spear blade without any problem.
âdonât worry. Because not much has passed. âThere is still plenty of time to train.â
Damdeok recalled his last memory.
I remember my vision being completely blacked out by Athenaâs one-two-three combo followed by a turning kick.
Even though Damdeok had both swordsmanship and martial arts talent, her attacks were impossible to avoid.
ââ¦Unlike Ares, Athena doesnât have any linear attacks.â
Not only was the trajectory of each attack impossible to read, but each blow was accurate and heavy, which was a bonus.
âIf only I could learnâ¦â
I donât think the sparring with Hades would be so hopeless.
âhmm? Brother, why are you so down? Sister Athena is someone who cannot be defeated in the first place. âThereâs no need to be embarrassed if you lose?â
Hercules spoke words of comfort, but Damdeok got up and approached Athena.
âHey brother. âWhat are you trying to do?â
âPlease teach me swordsmanship.â
Herculesâ hand, which hurriedly followed in panic, suddenly stopped.
Athenaâs hands, which were polishing the spear blade, also stopped.
[â¦Suddenly you want me to teach you swordsmanship?]
âYes.â
Athenaâs expression became strange at Damdeokâs firm answer.
Then he burst into laughter.
[Even if you donât say that, everyone here was trying to help you with your training. Weâre tired of training with the same face and the same pattern every day.]
I didnât know they were helping for such a simple reason, but it was a good thing for Damdeok anyway.
[And Hades⦠So, I didnât like my uncleâs atrocities in many ways. I canât let the god Amon die again.]
âI canât let the god Amon die againâ¦â
I guess this is the first time Hades has tried to kill another god in this way.
âIs this because the enemy of my enemy is my friend?â
Itâs the same in the banquet hall and Athenaâs way of speaking right now. The Olympian gods are generally hostile to Hades.
It was a plus factor for Damdeok.
Athena continued.
[Still, I didnât know you would ask me to tell you first. The posture is correct.]
Hercules nodded with a satisfied expression.
Ares, who was doing push-ups like a machine in the back, cooed! I dropped the iron piece and stood up.
He chuckled, pushing back his sweaty hair.
[Whoa. Welcome to hell. Baby.]
* * *
âCome on! Look straight at him! Concentrate! Concentration!â
Hercules shouted and shook his clenched fist.
Inside the sandbox, Damdeok was confronting a huge bull monster.
âYou said you were going to train me, but where on earth did you get the Minotaur from?!â
âWhat are you talking about, brother? âTraining with the Minotaur is everyday life here?â
Damdeok clenched his teeth at Herculesâ calm answer.
âafter. okay. What can I say?â
Hercules is a hero renowned for being the strongest in the world of gods, so it may be natural that he enjoys such ignorant training.
â Crrrrrrrâ¦!
Damdeok, a monster with the body of a human but the head of an ox, slowly brought back memories from the labyrinth dungeon.
âAt that time, I couldnât even get close to him, let alone beat him.â
It was only natural that I had just awakened.
But nowâ¦
â Woooooo!!
The Minotaur charges with its large horn raised.
âThatâs right, brother! Hit it! âSuppress him with force!â
Hercules shook his fists wildly as if he was excited.
At the same time, the Minotaurâs horn hit Damdeok roughly.
Kwagwaang!! Letâs go!!
As the thick dust slowly cleared, Damdeokâs relaxed face came into the Minotaurâs field of vision.
âWhat, youâre so down-to-earth now compared to back then?â
Damdeokâs sword was accurately blocking the Minotaurâs two horns.
â Huh?! Wow!!
This was when the angry guy flexed his back muscles with all his might.
âItâs noisy.â
In an instant, the X-shaped blade cut off the guyâs horn.
Before the guy could even notice the slowly falling horn, Damdeok grabbed the cut end of the horn and threw it with all his force to the other side.
thud! Craddangtangtang!
âend?â
Damdeok looked back at Hercules and asked.
Hercules just stared with his mouth open.
âWell⦠itâs easy. Whatâs the next training?â
Damdeok asked leisurely.
Ares and Athenaâs eyebrows twitched simultaneously as they watched with interest.
[under! Ignorant training like that has no place in training! I will show you what real training is.]
Ares rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward.
Damdeok shrugged his shoulders.
The expression on his face was that it didnât matter.
âOh brother! âHow ignorant!â
Leaving behind the furious Hercules, the training of Ares, full of fighting spirit, began.
* * *
[Do you understand? Baby. We will defeat them all within 10 minutes.]
Beyond Ares, who was saying that, soldiers made of clay were lined up.
âHmm, is it endurance training this time?â
The soldiers are armed with swords, spears, and axes. Although they are made of clay, their facial shapes and physiques are slightly different, so they really look like living soldiers.
âThe gods are good at making things like this.â
The first thing that came to mind was Thorâs dungeon grind.
âIt was really absurd at the time.â
As Damdeokâs expression became subtle, Ares looked satisfied.
[I got very thoughtful. haha. It has to be that way. This is training that will make even Ares sweat hard. Still, you have to do it, baby! To survive Hades!]
At the signal of Ares, who seemed excited, the soldiers all raised their weapons and aimed them at Damdeok.
Like everything! Cheek!
As a rough estimate, the number of troops appears to be around 500.
Ares emphasized once more with a solemn face.
[You know that you should never use your divine powers, right? Good luck, kid.]
â Waaaa!
The soldiers attacked all at once.
âHow do you shout at something made of clay?â
Damdeok thought of useless questions and began to cut down the soldiers step by step.
Squeak! square! Letâs go!
Every time the white sword danced, the mud soldiers fell helplessly.
âItâs easier than I thought.â
It was much better than when dealing with the fish-man monsters at Neptune Gate.
No, even compared to the sun wolves that fought during Apolloâs time, the mud soldiers were very weak.
Damdeok was already familiar with multiple battles.
âItâs annoying, but I have to sweep it all at once.â
[ Casting the skill!]
Kwakwakwakwakwa!!
The X-shaped blue sword energy spread out, destroying dozens of soldiers at once.
Just as you are about to make the next move
[Stop! STOP!!]
Ares came running with his eyes wide open.
Damdeok stopped his body from jumping out.
âWhatâs wrong with you all of a sudden?â
[Why!! I just said that magical powers are prohibited!!]
Damdeok tilted his head even more at Aresâ scolding words.
âyes? âI didnât use my spiritual powers.â
[what? Are you kidding me? Then what happened to this?]
Ares pointed to the dozens of mud soldiers who had fallen from the wave slash.
Damdeok felt like his head was going blank for a moment.
âwhat? So⦠what is it?â
He never used his divine power.
In the first place, training was based on the premise of sparring with Hades, so there was absolutely no reason to train while breaking the rules.
Then how did you activate the skill just now?
One thing passes through my jumbled mind.
ââ¦Is it mana?â
Aresâ eyebrows went up at Damdeokâs muttering.
[What?]
âMana⦠no, I used magic power. âItâs not divine power, itâs magical power.â
Damdeok looked at both hands alternately and smiled slightly.
Didnât you learn magic from Adele Sharon, albeit briefly?
In the meantime, magical power was created.
âBecause my spiritual power was limited, I naturally drew on my magic power and used my skills.â
In Atlaum, magic is used using the power of magical power, which is condensed mana.
And in modern times, where Damdeok lives, arenât skills used with magical power condensed from ether?
Although they are slightly different, both worlds use magical power.
âWell, for humans, it would be more natural to use magic power rather than divine power.â
Because divine power was so convenient, I never thought about using magical power.
âItâs awesome? Being able to use skills even when oneâs spiritual power is limitedâ¦â
Doesnât that mean that Hades is naked, but he can fight using all his skills?

â
Hehe, itâs killing me.â
It was a moment when the skills in the system window looked even more brilliant.
Ares was looking at Damdeok, who was laughing heartily, with a stern expression.
âGod uses magic power? âItâs not divine power, itâs magical powerâ¦?â
My heart sank as I heard Hercules muttering while watching.
Aresâ frown crumpled.
[What are you⦠human?]
