9 – 3-Lighthouse Village

Looking back, Mion in the novel wanted to get away from the countryside.

And if you look at the description at the beginning of the novel, he also had a longing for the human lighthouse.

However, he was too young to take the entrance exam, so he repeatedly blocked the knights’ path and shouted to be accepted as a member of the knights.

In fact, his efforts bore fruit, and even before he reached adulthood, he even got a definite answer from the Knights Templar that he would prepare a special place for you the next time he came.

However, as a joke of fate, that year, the Humanity Lighthouse was completely annihilated by me, Bjorn de Yewitz, who became a demon.

I was thinking of looking for it, but I can’t believe they came to me on their own feet.

I said coldly, hiding my joy.

“The Lighthouse of Humanity seeks comrades to fight alongside. It does not need piglets to feed and raise.”

“I am not a piglet!”

“Then what is it? Is it a human thing to talk about wanting to become a knight while not being able to wield a sword properly?”

“That’s it!”

“Then tell me. Why do you want to be a knight?”

Mion, who looked flustered for a while, regained her composure and opened her mouth.

“In the past, when I was nearly killed by a bear, the gift that saved me was the Humanity Lighthouse. I want to become like him.”

Ah, that’s why you’re so obsessed with the Humanity Lighthouse.

It felt like the missing parts of the novel were filled in.

“You’re not ready to be a knight. So…”

I approached Mion and said.

“When I, Bjorn de Jejitz, the eldest son of the de Jejitz family finishes work at the lighthouse and passes this place again, I will greet you as a page. Learn and learn by my side. After that, become a knight. .”

“……Really, is it? I dare……such an honor…….”

“I swear by the name of my family. So prepare everything until I come back.”

“Thank you! Thank you so much!”

Being the start of an influential family meant the same thing as having a strong supporter.

From this moment until I was excommunicated, Mion’s success was guaranteed.

Mion, who must not have known that, shouted out words of gratitude for her extension.

[Can’t I just take him with me without having to go back?]

Jin seemed to be asking why she was going back for something she would use anyway.

‘No. The Humanity Lighthouse is not my Knights.’

Mion was the main character of this novel.

I wouldn’t be afraid of thousands of troops if I could keep them under my command.

However, if I take him to the entrance exam like this, he will become a member of the Humanity Lighthouse, not under my direct control.

I couldn’t just make porridge and give it to my trash father.

I will grow it properly and use it as a shield to prevent the devil from coming down to my mansion, which I will have in the future.

“hehehehe, now, let’s go when we’ve finished our business.”

With even Mion in hand, I never thought things would work out so well.

Now, everything to see in Lothric Village is over.

I had to go to Lighthouse Village and finish the entrance exam.

I climbed back into the carriage.

*

The main road narrowed, and the milestones of the journey were pointing to only one place on the forked road.

The final destination, Lighthouse Village, is just around the corner.

After the last camp, the lighthouse team was folding their tents with joy.

Early morning, some distance from camp.

I was sitting cross-legged alone and engrossed in fortune-telling breakfast.

Because he started training with Jin’s help.

Haa, training.

Isn’t it the trend of web novels to break all earthenware pots, such as Sword Master and Thousand Mani with just one chance you got in the beginning?

No matter how rigorous it may be, what kind of training are you doing in the yard where you got the crazy opportunity of Hwajeong?

It’s dreary, it’s dreary.

[Gather a little more of Hwajeong’s magic into the Danjeon.]

“Doesn’t the Danjeon break if I draw more here?”

[Don’t talk, trust me.]

From the day I met Jin, I was trying to deal with Hwajeong.

Unlike his usual mischievous counterpart, Jin was a fairly strict teacher, and his skills were outstanding beyond compare.

For example, after a few days of training with Jin, the size of the dantian went beyond the low level and looked at the intermediate level.

Due to the nature of a knight who cannot use anything other than the mana stored in the danteon, the expansion of the dantian is to increase the size of the battery when hit by electronic devices.

And that was also the security of a knight’s inherent weakness.

I thought it was an irrelevant issue for me, who has a good temper.

It was because it was endlessly supplying mana as if it were connected to an outlet.

Unfortunately, that was my mistake.

“I thought I wouldn’t have to worry about Danjeon if I had a good temper!”

[To handle Hwajeong properly, you need to train your body accordingly. Otherwise, the balance is broken and the body is broken. You don’t intend to risk your life every time you use the power of fire, right?]

Hwajeong is the power of a god.

It was so pure that it was incomparable to normal mana.

The explosive power was also on a different level from ordinary magical power.

In order to properly use the power of Hwajeong, a strong skeleton, a larger and stronger danteon, and a strong body were needed.

Otherwise, it could have burned and died.

I concentrated on the fluctuating flames of the flames and gathered mana in the danjeon.

Of course, increasing the size of Danjeon is not an easy task.

Can a person expand his lungs simply by taking a deep breath?

In order to train cardiorespiratory endurance for a long time, you have to exercise like crazy to get bigger.

Danjeon is the same.

Simply filling up mana doesn’t make it wider.

You have to constantly push yourself hard.

In that respect, Hwajeong helped.

This is because even a little bit of fan will burn up and push the power supply to the limit.

“……Kuh!”

As Jin said, when he gathered the magic power of Hwajeong into Danjeon, a sharp pain came.

I gathered my eyebrows at the pain that came from below the belly button.

From the lower end to the lower intermediate level

Ripped and wounded, Dantian grew in size.

“Ahhhhh.. Almost died.”

I took a deep breath as I wiped away the raining sweat.

Sword expert intermediate at the age of 14.

It was an unreal achievement.

It was also a stage that could never have been achieved so quickly without the help of Jin and Hwajeong.

After all, God.

Is the human body condition at best within the palm of your hand?

[…] … Does this happen?]

“What?”

You bastard, did you just try to soak me?

When I glared at him with a rough breath, Jin was ready to whistle if he had a mouth.

[Don’t look at me like that. Because I tested your talent. You are a bit of an odd case. It is a material that can be expected to grow as far as it can grow. Even in the middle of the harsh war, there were not many kids like you.]

From noble mtl dot com

“Don’t talk back. You just meant to kill me and steal my anger?!”

[What do you see God as?! I am Jinn of Flame! Why am I killing the guy I revived! Did you really check your talent?! It’s just that my prediction was a little off.]

Should I pay tribute to my crazy talent that even the gods play with?

I asked lying down on the floor.

“Really? Then I ask you, how long do you think it will take me to become a sword master?”

[Is that just your goal? Shabby.]

Live and live. To think that a sword master is shabby.

Hasn’t the sense of reality gone because it’s been sealed for so long?

To paraphrase the word used to refer to a sword master in this world, it was ‘one to one and all to one’ when it comes to swords.

The strongest beings except for the Sword Saint Landeros by force.

It is often said that the strength of a sword master is equal to that of 10,000 ordinary people.

Even in the real past on Earth, there is a record of a single medieval knight without mana ravaging a village and destroying 20,000 to 30,000 enemies with only 300 knights.

Of course, the sword master would run out of mana and die before he could slaughter all 10,000 soldiers, but it was true that the strategic benefit of one sword master was higher than that of 10,000 ordinary soldiers.

[Humans. Hasn’t the long-lasting peace made you too weak? To think that there are only about 10 sword masters in the entire continent of Esteria. During the Great War, hundreds of people rolled around.]

“Humans have not become weak. They have turned in a different direction.”

It is true that compared to the period of the Great War, the number of sword masters has significantly decreased.

However, human power has not weakened.

It is just that he chose the condensation of the majority called ‘magic’ rather than the individual strength of ‘sword’.

“So how long will it take to achieve my humble goal?”

[If you become proficient at handling fire, three years is enough to deal with a sword master. Is it roughly 5 years for you to reach the level of a sword master?]

Helga said it would take me 15 years to become a sword master at the earliest.

You said that was ridiculously fast too.

However, with Jin’s help, I could become a sword master as early as 19, depending on my efforts.

It was unprecedented in history.

Even so, it’s a problem that it’s intermittent because there are four years left until Bjorn de Yewitz is purged in the novel.

It’s such a crazy fix.

Does it make sense to worry about your life even if you get a chance?

What’s the difficulty level?

“I want to train a little longer, but…”

[Your body is already at its limit. And you said you had to prepare for the entrance exam?]

As Jin said, we were scheduled to arrive at Lighthouse Village this morning.

I had to prepare for the entrance exam tomorrow.

[By the way, what is the entrance exam for?]

“I don’t know the details either. There are up to three tests, and the method for the first test changes every year. According to the lighthouse knights, some riders cover their faces with a cloth and spray seawater during the first test. They say they picked people who lasted a long time. Did the other riders just pick people who survived by beating them to death all day?”

[Isn’t that just torture?]

“Because it is the lighthouse knights’ duty to protect Esteria from the demons across the sea. We must prepare for the time we fight the demons.”

Although somewhat ignorant, it was also an effective way to weed out weak-minded applicants.

Devils don’t just eat the body.

I needed someone who would not collapse even in the face of mental attacks.

You can grow your body with effort, but your mental power is impossible, so even if you are ignorant, you can select a human lighthouse knight in this way.

[Is it really necessary to join the Humanity Lighthouse? You wouldn’t be able to train properly during that time, would you? Are you in a hurry?]

‘You don’t have to join, but taking the Human Lighthouse test is to buy time. And there are people to meet.’

Currently, Stemwind is busy with the 「Last Meeting」.

The next few months will be noisy.

If I had been in Stemwind right now, I wouldn’t have been able to do anything because of government affairs and slander.

The biggest reason I applied for the entrance exam was to meet Jin, but it was also to earn time.

The exam lasts for three months.

I had to make the most of the opportunities I had gained so far as mine.

Looking back, I was lucky.

Both Jin and Mion were able to reap more than expected.

After that, I was able to afford it.

I can afford to meet ‘her girl’ at her entrance exam and make her my side.

[Anyway, if I have enough strength, I will continue training during the entrance exam. I don’t watch.]

‘It’s what I hoped for.’

When we returned to camp in the morning dew, the lighthouse was already preparing to depart.

The dreaded wagon trip came to an end today.

How far did you go up the slope?

The vast sea began to be visible beyond the dense forest.

There was a small port facing the open sea.

Buildings covered with white stones and blue roofs adorned the slope beautifully.

At the end of it, the slope castle of the Lighthouse Knights built in case of an emergency and the lighthouse at the end welcomed us.

Ashes had not yet reached here, the clear sky was reflected in the blue sea beyond the port.

The northernmost point of the Esteria continent.

The place where the Rodal people who came down from Homeland first set foot.

It is the forefront of the unfinished war against the devil, and the place where the Lighthouse Knights risked their lives to defend against the pervert Bjorn de Jejeitz, who betrayed humanity.

In the novel, this was a lighthouse village where the entire De Jejeitz family, including Kanniel De Jejeitz, was massacred.
