A Different World That Started as a Slave

In the afternoon, the square, sword training.

The horn of the training camp sounded.

Reens and Ben hurried to the square with the crowd.

When they arrived at the square, Reens saw that the place where the wooden swords were originally stacked was now neatly placed with iron long swords.

"Is this... finally going to let us use real long swords?"

Reens thought to himself.

It has been more than 4 months since the instructor started teaching basic swordsmanship.

The number of them has also dropped from 100 to less than 40 now.

They have always used wooden swords as tools for sword training, although the wooden swords in the training camp are not light and the feel of the strike is also good.

But after all, there is a big gap between it and a real long sword.

Reens has a deep understanding of this.

Thinking of the scene in which he used a wooden sword to fight against the enemy in the dungeon and was hacked to death by those guards.

Reens couldn't help but twitch his mouth, and his mood suddenly became a little unhappy.

He wished he could enter the dungeon right now and hack those guards to death seven or eight times.

"What's wrong? Your expression is a little strange."

Ben asked Reens after noticing that Reens's expression was a little wrong.

"Nothing... I just suddenly remembered some bad scenes in the past and felt a little uncomfortable."

Reens also realized that his emotions were wrong. After adjusting himself, he shook his head at Ben.

"Bad scenes... You should have remembered the dead people in the past."

"Every time there are new changes in the square in the afternoon, it means that the content of the training has changed again."

"That means the possibility of death has increased again. It's normal to feel a little uncomfortable."

Ben also sighed after hearing Reens' response.

His eyes were fixed on the long swords not far away, and they were somewhat deep, as if he was recalling something.

Ben, whose dream was to become a bard, had richer emotions, and nothing could touch people's hearts more than death.

Reens was silent.

He understood that Ben's words were actually meant for himself, and he was the one who was hurt by his own kind.

Is the appearance of these long swords a good thing or a bad thing?

Only when the instructor actually announces the content of the training can we be sure.

Reens did not wait long, and the instructor who seemed to have never changed his clothes came in front of them.

However, it was not only the instructor who had not changed the style of his clothes.

Except for Marvin, everyone else in the entire training camp basically wore the same clothes back and forth.

Just like a prison, different clothes represent different identities.

"You should have seen the long swords over there."

"Yes, that is the weapon that will be distributed to you later."

The instructor said calmly, and his words confirmed Reens's guess just now.

"First of all, congratulations. From now on, you are very close to successful graduation."

"From now on, you don't need to practice basic swordsmanship anymore, nor do the physical training in the morning."

The instructor paused for a while, as if giving Reans and others time to react.

Hearing this, Reans did not feel excited.

Reans still knew the truth that a journey of a hundred miles begins with a single step.

Before leaving this training camp alive, everything is still uncertain.

What's more, even if you graduate successfully and leave here alive, you will be a slave after you go out.

Thinking of this, Reans really couldn't be happy.

Only freedom... Only getting rid of the identity of a slave and gaining freedom is the goal that Reans has been fighting for.

Moreover, Reans actually has a little bit of reluctance to leave the training camp in his heart.

There are people he wants to kill everywhere here, and he will not feel any guilt for killing those people in the copy or even in reality.

The existence of those people satisfied Reens's desire for killing.

But after going out, if the people he met were all strangers without hatred, would he still be able to kill them?

Reens' answer to himself was - yes.

His worldview had changed to a certain extent, and Reens was not opposed to killing now.

But the education he received in his previous life made Reens somewhat dislike the behavior of turning the butcher knife towards strangers.

"I hope that after I go out, I can find a group of guys who make me unhappy as soon as possible."

Reens said silently in his heart.

"From today to the graduation assessment, you only need to do one thing every day."

"Fight, fight a real battle, fight continuously."

"Next, you will each get a long sword, and you need to fight with the long sword in hand."

"What you need to do is to defeat your opponent or kill him."

"In short, it's the same as when you fought before, except that the weapons are replaced with real long swords."

"Don't fight passively, otherwise, you will die!"

The instructor continued with a serious expression.

Hearing the instructor's serious speech, the trainees who were a little excited that they finally made it to graduation suddenly felt much colder.

Fighting with real swords? This is forcing them to death.

There is no big problem with a wooden sword hitting a person except that it hurts a little.

But if a real sword scratches a person's body, it will at least be a bleeding wound, and a deeper one will be a fatal wound.

The battle changes rapidly, who can guarantee that they will not be injured?

What's more, this refers to the situation where the winner is always the winner.

The loser cannot be considered a loser if he is not injured... The instructor will not allow this situation.

How can you be considered a loser if you haven't even fought hard?

Once the instructor determines that you are passive in the duel, you will die.

Even Reans is troubled by the current situation.

Before, Reans had always maintained a mixed result in the duel, so that he would stay in the middle position and not be too conspicuous because of the winning streak.

As for the whipping punishment of the guards, Reans has been used to it after being beaten many times, and it will pass after a little resistance.

Now that it has changed to a real sword duel, Reans cannot lose.

Losing means getting injured, and getting injured will affect the state. If the state becomes too bad, even if Reans is very strong, it will be difficult to guarantee that he will continue to survive in the duel.

The duel is not just one game, but one round after another.

Just like the instructor said, it is the same as the previous wooden sword duel.

"It's troublesome. Many people may die in this situation."

"Reans... Do you think we will be the ones who survive?"

Ben whispered to Reans beside him with some worry.

At this time, the scene was a little noisy, because Ben was not the only one who spoke.

Facing the pressure of death, even if the instructor had a great reputation, it was difficult for everyone to remain quiet.

"Try to survive, we have no other choice."

Reens responded to Ben with a serious face.

Reens was thinking about how much strength he would have to exert later? And whether he needed to... kill people?
