When he heard of the barbarian raid, Earl Warrug intended to leave everything to Raymond.

Raymond had a talent.

His talent was so great that it is difficult to describe in words.

Maybe more than that guy called the youngest sword master… .

‘I can become much stronger against barbarians.’

Barbarians are very strong and difficult to deal with.

His skin was so hard that he couldn’t even lift a knife, his strength enough to wrestle with a bear, and his speed comparable to that of a horse.

Unless they were knight-level, they could never be defeated, and they were difficult to deal with.

If I didn’t use the aura, it was all I could barely do.

Of course, it would be different for a sword master like himself, but Raymond was not a sword master.

At best, between intermediate and advanced sword experts.

It was clear that even that much was a huge achievement at his age, but he needs to get stronger faster than he is now.

-Recently, the situation in the north is unusual. Maybe a wave of monsters could happen.

It was the report of Hamilton, the king of all mercenaries and the manager of the northern castle ‘Fortress’.

Although he was a guy he didn’t want to deal with, apart from that, the news he delivered was very heavy.

– The trend of the empire is also strange. Maybe the war will recur.

Information sent by the chief of intelligence who is working for the royal family.

-The other three kingdoms are secretly meeting… .

-In the Empire… .

Every news that comes to him lately is all bad news.

There are reports that everyone should prepare for war.

Even now, even the savages of the south made unusual moves.

-Two of the three southern tribes were merged.

The South consisted of a total of four powers.

The ‘Red Hawk’ tribe, which rides on wolves and uses a bow, has the mobility close to that of a ranger.

The ‘Kairos’ tribe, who have innate physical abilities and tremendous fertility, lead many tribesmen and live madly at war.

Even though there are only a small number of people, ‘Elf’ shows overwhelming firepower by commanding spirits with innate affinity.

And Ceylon’s shield, Easton, blocking the savages who are trying to rise from the south.

These four powers were wary of each other and showed a tight power structure.

But lately, that balance has collapsed.

‘Kairos swallowed the red hawk.’

The warm-hearted Cairos who were trying to attack Easton had an accident.

It attacked the Red Hawk tribe and swallowed the tribe.

I knew that one day they would have an accident, but that time was too soon.

The red hawks were not as strong as the Kairos tribe.

However, it was not like the elves could command spirits.

They belonged to the rather mediocre axis.

If you ask how such people have survived so far, they will be called stupid.

‘No matter how different the population is, that’s the red hawk.’

The true power of the red hawk was separate.

They had neither innate physical ability nor affinity.

One thing I had to treat them the same as other tribes.

‘Aura affinity.’

Saying this would make anyone shake their heads.

Spirit affinity and mana affinity are words that are often used.

Although spirits were a product of nature, they were also creatures.

Affinity was the first impression to the spirit, and it was like an unforgettable perfume.

The higher the affinity, the stronger the first impression of them, and the stronger the scent that captivates the spirits.

The mana affinity was similar to that.

Mana is different from spirits, but closer to nature.

It is not a lie to say that mana has will.

Mana also picked a person and approached him.

That’s why the most necessary thing for a mage is mana affinity.

A magician’s talent is the sensitivity to feel mana, but mana affinity was the most important.

Mana affinity is simple.

How well you can use mana, how much mana moves according to your will.

Beatrice had excellent mana affinity.

Compared to other wizards, the ship is high enough.

‘There is a saying that Aura has no will. But the one who broke that mold was the red magpie.’

Aura came from Mana, but it was different from Mana.

If mana was borrowed from nature, humans basically possessed aura.

But people don’t know about it.

Only knights who have trained their bodies and honed their aura techniques can feel the aura.

It’s hard to deal with auras.

If I had to compare Aura, it would be like humans getting a third hand.

Humans cannot handle a sudden hand.

Effort is the only answer.

If you don’t try, and if you don’t have talent, you can’t handle it even though you can feel it.

‘There are rumors that the Red Hawk handles Aura freely from birth.’

The red hawk’s aura management ability was so great that even the sword master was sometimes surprised.

Sometimes, to the point of wanting to get under them and learn their abilities.

But it wasn’t something I could learn just because I wanted to.

Only the tribesmen who inherited the lineage of the red hawk were able to do so.

In the first place, they didn’t even try to deal with auras, and they could just use them naturally as they were originally.

‘How on earth did he beat the red hawk?’

Aura gives them superhuman-like bodies.

That made them invincible against other tribes.

Even more, they ride wolves and use bows.

The destructive power of shooting arrows filled with aura was enough to break a solid iron door with one shot.

Plus, it’s not revealed publicly, but people who live in the South know it.

That there is a Bow Master among them.

They who are smart and good at plotting were swallowed up by those savages?

If he hadn’t listened to Marquis Easton, he would have snorted.

‘So, Raymond, you have to become a sword master as soon as possible.’

At first, I pinned my hopes on Selina.

Because I haven’t seen anyone with talent like her.

She thought that she would become a sword master before she turned 30.

‘Meeting Raymond changed all my thoughts. At least it was to the point where even Hamilton said he wanted to be his successor.’

It was unfortunate that he was the son of an archmage but had no talent for magic, but in a different sense it was amazing.

Because his talent for swordsmanship was enormous.

He was receiving the attention of sword masters and fist masters.

‘Oh, the affinity is very good. If you recall that it hasn’t been a year since you awakened, you might be a red hawk… .’

Raymond, I expected that he would become a sword master in his twenties.

‘Ah, including the woman in the desert, are there three Masters?’

How surprised he was to hear that the ruler of the north, Taurin, proposed to Raymond.

Sometimes like a warrior, sometimes like a queen, she only knew herself.

‘If you… .’

So I decided to experiment with Raymond.

How far can you go against barbarians?

Although the others intervened, Raymond had to deal with the barbarians anyway.

‘As expected, I have talent.’

He nodded as he watched him fight the barbarians, the warriors of Kairos.

At first, he might have been taken aback by the barbarians’ fighting methods, but after that, he was coping with them surprisingly well.

Like a man born to fight.

As if he knew the habits of savages from the beginning.

The rangers are doing their job well, and Lanos wasn’t worried.

He was from the South, and had been educated about savages since childhood.

“Why did you bring them… I know why, but I can’t help but feel annoyed.”

Judging from the aura they felt, they were the ones who had trained with the sword.

In the first place, if it wasn’t a knight class, I wouldn’t have brought him here.

However, they did not have the pride of knights.

I couldn’t see the struggle that a knight should have.

‘Rather, it’s full of lust.’

They are really nauseous guys.

It was a question of how on earth such bastards could still remain in the royal family, no, aside from that, how did they become inspectors.

Inspectors are those who grasp the impurity of others.

It was impossible for them to be dirty.

When I go back, it seems I need to figure out exactly what happened.

“Well… ?”

His eyes twitched as he looked at the inspector.

His eyes turned to the savage with his arms crossed in the distance.

“Are you the commander? By the way… It’s amazing.”

The momentum I felt from him was insignificant.

His momentum was so great that he doubted whether he was a master class like himself.

‘not. I’m not a master yet.’

Should I call this fortunate or unfortunate?

The savage was not a master.

However, it is only the highest level of sword expert.

‘It’s almost on the verge of crossing the wall.’

Maybe I should say I’m glad I found it before I became a master.

If that savage was a Master, it would have been so dangerous that even he couldn’t handle what would happen.

‘Kairos is the master… Just thinking about it is terrifying.’

At least Easton was able to hold out against Kairos because, contrary to their powerful bodies, they were like outsiders when it came to Aura.

Just as God doesn’t give everything to one being, they traded strong bodies and aura affinity.

It was only about one in a thousand that they felt an aura.

‘However, sending such a strong man.’

Sending out such precious power must have meant that he had that much confidence in this surprise attack.

And indeed, the raid must have been successful.

if it hadn’t stopped

If there’s one mistake they made, it’s that they didn’t know that the sword master himself had come.

‘I’ll have to deal with that guy here.’

He untied his arms and put his hand on the sword.

It was when he was about to draw his sword.

“aaagh!”

“That crazy bastard!”

Lanos was running towards him.

Even after seeing the rangers fall out in one shot, he swung his greatsword too recklessly.

aaang!

His wrist was broken and the greatsword flew away.

The Warrior Chief incapacitated him at once and swung a halberd at his head.

‘late.’

Being careless was the problem.

Even if I ran now, I couldn’t block that attack.

“then… !”

I have no choice but to blow my aura and draw my attention here.

As he pushed the aura into his sword and was about to swing it, he saw a group of people running recklessly like Lanos in the distance.

“Raymond!”

He was none other than Raymond.

Before he could stop, Raymond, who ran at breakneck speed, kicked Lanos in the side of the daze.

‘I can’t avoid that!’

late.

He hesitated at Raymond’s actions, and the hesitating time made it useless even if he blew his aura.

aaang!

The warrior’s halberd plunged into Raymond.

The halberd contained so much aura that even the sword master was wary.

Even if it was blocked, it was a problem.

Both arms will be broken, and the whole body will be crushed by making mistakes.

And even Raymond couldn’t dodge or block that attack.

“no!”

Raymond must not die.

He screamed and ran into the dust explosion.

have to live He swung his sword while begging in his heart to please stay alive.

Whoa!

The dust settles in the black wind.

And he could see An attack that was thought to be unstoppable.

Woodeuk, Wooddeuk-

The figure of Raymond who was struggling to block it.
