How To Survive as a Crazy Prince

Chapter 15

“… … say it again let’s fight Mustafa.”

After washing the salty body clean, I put on clothes and the training ground, I brought out the words I said in the bathroom. There was a process of breaking the flow, but my motivation was not dead yet.

“I don’t know what kind of enlightenment you got in the bath, but it hasn’t been long since you recovered. I think it is better not to overdo it.”

Mustafa politely responded to my request. Katyusha also nodded and silently agreed. I sighed.

“Come on, if I tell you to do it, can you still do it? Am I so complacent?”

“It doesn’t mean that. I just… … .”

“I don’t hate advice. But let’s report the atmosphere as well.”

As I spoke in irritation, Mustafa took hold of the sword at his waist after silence. It was an expression that he would engage in Dalian.

“Yeah, that’s how it should be. Katyusha. Bring me the sword.”

“All right.”

I ordered Katyusha to bring the sword and looked at Mustafa who was ready. Even just holding the sword, I feel a sense of intimidation. Even without magical powers, Mustafa is strong.

“Mustafa. The rules of the sparring are the same as the ones you boasted about before. but… … .”

With that disciplined swordsmanship,

“I won’t use lightning.”

I really want to meet you.

“… … Are you saying you want to fight with swordsmanship alone?”

“I don’t know if I’ll fight with swordsmanship alone, but I won’t use electric shock.”

I wonder how far I can go now.

“Anyway, I’ll do my best to deal with it.”

“okay. It should be.”

Katyusha brought the sword. It was Alexei’s sword, which he also used when fighting Neza.

“Then let’s do it. Mustafa.”

I drew my sword with my now completely healed right hand.

“let’s begin.”

Mustafa lowered his stance and closed the distance. And cut diagonally from the bottom left. It was an attack aimed at the tip of the sword.

Kaaang!

“It’s much heavier than I thought!”

Blocked. Mustafa’s sword, which he received for the first time, was surprisingly heavy. It was as heavy as being hit with a hammer.

“Keep going!”

Mustafa withdrew his sword and struck again quickly. It was three consecutive shots from top to bottom. I thought the unique movement, which was different from the normal Sangvis knights, was impressive, so I dismissed all of them.

“… … hmm!”

Suddenly, Mustafa’s face showed surprise. And as if trying to bounce this off, he grabbed the sword with both hands and swung it obliquely.

Kaga gagagak, taang!

Sparks flew from the swords they encountered, not from lightning, but from pure sword friction. I slid Mustafa’s power through the blade and let it flow, and I swung it from the tip and deflected it. It is a technique that Neza used. The recoil widened the distance between them.

“… … !”

Mustafa, who had lost his posture for a moment, hurriedly corrected his posture. It was an expression of disbelief.

‘The response is much better than I thought.’

In fact, the unbelievable thing was me too. Even moving on its own was amazing. I never thought it would become this much better just by changing the way my body moves.

“Now let me go from my side.”

I straightened my sword, preparing for an attack. And at the same time as taking a step forward——.

“… … !”

Mustafa’s sword collided with mine. It was a blow so fast that the trail of the sword could not be seen.

I continued to swing my sword with momentum. A simple but quick attack continued. The weight of the unfamiliar sword sometimes distracted him, but he hit Mustafa’s sword faster than Mustafa’s movement to aim for that gap.

There is no such thing as technology at all. Can not help it. I still have no idea how to handle a one-handed sword like this.

It just pushes with overwhelming speed and power.

“… … hahahaha!”

I must have bumped my swords close to 20 times. Mustafa, who had read the trajectory, cut my sword sharply. I followed the recoil and retreated to open the gap. I felt the muscles in my hands and arms twitch at the onslaught beyond their limits.

“… … It was a frighteningly fast and heavy attack.”

Mustafa said, wiping the sweat from his cheek. It was a complex face mixed with admiration and astonishment.

“If my reaction to the first attack had been a bit delayed, I might have missed the sword.”

“Is it so? Thank you for the compliment.”

That’s natural. It was an attack that was hard for even me who wielded the sword to perceive. Mustafa, who managed to figure it out and knock it out, was rather remarkable.

The human body thinks, commands. It moves.

But now I was missing the middle part. The moment you think, you move at the same time.

‘The reaction is so fast that it’s hard to control myself.’

At first, I tried to block certain senses and bring out others, just like Katyusha did.

But there was no need to cut off my senses. Even if you cut it off, it’s a last resort.

The method I found was to apply magic power to the electrical signals flowing through the body and amplify them minutely. That alone increases the body’s reaction speed and strength several times.

It was a true way to use the magical power of electricity that I realized when I faced myself in a space of nothingness and my senses were running out of control.

But this wasn’t the only way I got it. There was another energy that I felt during the fine control.

I stretched out my left hand and fine-tuned the electricity in the atmosphere.

“… … ?!”

Instantly, Mustafa’s face contorted as if he couldn’t understand it.

“Kuh! what happened… … ?!”

No wonder.

Anyone would be surprised if the sword tried to get out of their hands as if it had a will.

I stretched out my hand and amplified the energy acting on Mustafa’s sword. As if trying to shake it off, he panicked and matched it with the direction of Mustafa’s power as he swung his sword, pulling it at once.

“oh!”

The sword slipped from Mustafa’s hand and flew into the air. And——.

“… … All right.”

It flew into my left hand as if it had a will. I swung my arm and grabbed Mustafa’s sword. Mustafa’s sword vibrated as if resonating, then slowly quieted down.

“What the heck, what happened… … ?”

Mustafa asked as if he didn’t understand at all. Katyusha, who had been silently watching the match, was shocked with her eyes wide open.

“Should I say new technology?”

Another energy newly learned while controlling minute electricity.

It was a magnetic field.

Electricity is not the only thing that can be done. If handled delicately, the magnetic field can also be controlled.

I used it to draw Mustafa’s sword and bring it to my left hand.

I was nervous because it was my first attempt, but thanks to Mustafa’s embarrassment, I was able to succeed more easily than I thought. The reason why the sword escaped from Mustafa’s hand must have been due to the strength of Mustafa’s swing rather than the pulling power of my magnetic field.

‘If I can use it well, it will be a very frightening ability.’

This was the use of new electric magic that differentiated him from the emperor.

If I can use it skillfully, it’s as if I’ve obtained iron blood.

However, there was one problem.

“… … Keugh.”

I knelt, thrusting Mustafa’s sword into the ground. The sword he was holding in his right hand also slipped from his hand. Intense dizziness set in.

“Do, Bocchan! Are you all right! You’re too overbearing… … .”

“Sweet.”

Breathing heavily, I said what I wanted the most.

“I really want to eat sweets… … .”

Amplification of the senses through magic and control of the magnetic field consumed a lot of mental strength and calories.

“Well well, well… … . Puha. Whoa. I will live a little now.”

After desperately eating the sweets brought by Katyusha, I barely regained my strength. I usually don’t like sweet things, but I couldn’t get enough of it without eating.

‘Even when I used up a lot of mana, it wasn’t like this. Maybe it’s because it’s a technique that’s physically demanding.’

To finish, I drank a cup of tea. The body becomes at ease, and intense drowsiness sets in. If I just lay down now, I feel like I’m going to fall asleep right away. I feel languid and stupid.

After sitting there blankly for a while, I belatedly noticed Mustafa and Katyusha staring at me.

“… … There are so many things I want to ask you, but can meditation alone make you so strong?”

“I just thought of a way to apply magic. It was a great experience. Why don’t you try Mustafa later?”

“I’m interested, but frankly, I’m scared. Because I don’t even have magical powers in the first place.”

Mustafa politely declined. Then, after looking at the weapon he had returned, he asked.

“The moment the prince stretched out his left hand, I felt invisible power in my weapon. And it flew into the prince’s hand. What is that power? I have never heard or seen anything like that.”

“What would that say? Mmm. It’s hard to explain. My head isn’t spinning right now. Just know that there is something like that. It’s an electrical application. Even if you hear it, you probably won’t understand it?”

“… … Certainly, I don’t have the confidence to understand even if I hear it.”

Mustafa fumbled with his sword as if he was confused. Maybe he thinks he’s possessed by a ghost. Was there such a thing in the old martial arts novels?

“By the way, Katyusha, haven’t you drained the water in the bathroom yet?”

I was blankly relaxing and asked Katyusha what came to mind.

“yes. After preparing the meal, I will start cleaning right away. … .”

“Then let’s go in together before taking it out.”

At my words, Katyusha flinched greatly and shivered. Mustafa sipped the black tea he was drinking into the cup.

“yes?”

“I thought of a good way. I will let you feel it.”

As I opened my senses, I came up with a good idea. Better to do it while you can.

“I, that, young boy… … ! That kind of talk is not in the presence of other people!”

“I-I’m going to leave for a while. I will rest until tomorrow morning.”

“huh? what. What’s wrong with both of you?”

Katyusha blushed and Mustafa hurriedly stood up.
