At the beginning, unlimited skill tree!

He remembered that the explosive sword skill 'One Sword Shura' of a certain uncrowned sword king also worked on this principle.

‘Is the human body’s potential limited or unlimited? ’

'How strong can you become after you fully realize your potential...'

In fact, Yan cannot get accurate answers to these questions.

A man who thought there was a limit to human life turned himself into a vampire.

There are also human beings who have unlocked the limiters in their bodies through physical exercise and become bald men who can destroy stars with one punch.

In any case, if he could release this hidden power, he could indeed improve his strength in a short period of time.

"Actually - he really worked it out. The combination of magic and sword skills!" On the other side, Hidi, who was eating cookies in the library and reading the 'Earth Encyclopedia' written by Homura with great interest, suddenly opened her eyes wide. He closed his eyes and spoke in surprise.

She sensed the scene of red thunder wrapped around Yan Jiang's sword.

Previously, because of Homura's idea of ​​combining 'magic and sword skills', Hidi had thought about the 'double cultivation of warriors and magicians' descendants of the 'King of Heroes'.

But the descendants of that Hero King seem to have failed.

This is how things should have been in the past——

Human energy is limited, and it is difficult for people who specialize in magic to make achievements as warriors.

In the same way, those who are elite warriors, even if they have some magical talents, will not learn magic in depth...

At most, learn some small healing and auxiliary magic to help you survive the battle.

This is just dual cultivation.

If you want to combine magic and sword skills, and truly use 'two powers' at the same time...

It is very difficult to apply magic power to a 'weapon' stably.

Being able to attach that kind of 'unstable' magic power to a long sword for fighting——

"Should I say that it's you as expected? Homura." A complicated look flashed in Hittie's beautiful eyes.

...You have achieved something that even the descendants of the 'King of Heroes' could not achieve. Holding a half-bitten biscuit in her hand, Hidi suddenly became slightly absent-minded.

at the same time--

A true descendant of the Hero King.

Her silk hair, which was as red as blood, was tied into a ponytail and draped over her shoulders. Her ice-blue eyes were as dazzling as ocean gems, and she had a delicate and pretty face with snow-white skin.

A petite girl was currently in her backyard, waving the sword in her hand seriously.

"After swinging a thousand vertical chops, rest. If you can't do it, punish yourself by practicing a thousand uppercuts!" The girl was sweating profusely and her body was shaky, but she gritted her teeth and whispered.

Hero among heroes——

The only man who is not a king, but is respected as the 'Hero King' by many countries.

That man is the girl's father.

As the protector of the royal family and the patron saint of the empire, she is the daughter of a man who has been dubbed 'Sword Master', 'Dragon Slayer', and even 'The Strongest Hero Under God' by the world.

He is also the other party's only descendant.

It was she who was supposed to inherit the name of the 'King of Heroes' and become the new generation of warriors who stood at the pinnacle.

However--

Bang! ! The long sword in her hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the girl's eyes suddenly turned black and her whole body became weak and fell to the ground.

Her body reached its limit;

"Ugh...ah!" A tiny cry of pain came out of his mouth like a cat.

The sore girl had tears in her eyes. She steeled herself and got up from the ground in a daze. Then she looked at the sharp sword lying on the ground.

"Do you really not have the talent to be a warrior?"

The girl couldn't help but think of what her father often said to her: "It would be great if you were a boy..."

As a child of the King of Heroes, he was shocked by his father's words.

She is also extremely proud of being the child of the King of Heroes.

She admired her father far more than she complained, and she never resented her father's cold attitude toward her.

Instead, it was because he admired his father's reputation for bravery. For this reason... he hoped to embark on the same path as his father as a warrior to prove himself and gain his father's approval.

But she really doesn't seem to have any talent in the practice of 'breathing method'.

Even though she had built an extremely solid foundation and honed her sword skills to perfection, she still couldn't change the fact that she had been practicing for so long...but she couldn't even reach the third level of warrior quality.

Her father once asked her to give up.

Girls actually have extremely high talents as magicians.

Time should not be wasted on learning swordsmanship, breathing techniques, and combat steps.

The girl who wanted to be recognized by her father gritted her teeth and persisted.

But she has not succeeded until now...

"Ah...what's wrong, there seems to be a Potions class in the morning." The girl suddenly woke up and shouted.

Then she hurriedly got up and went back to her room to change into her school uniform.

After a while, a girl wearing a iris uniform and a mage hat, with an innocent, cute temperament and a somewhat nervous expression reappeared.

The girl's long hair has been let down.

No one can connect it with the figure with a single ponytail, sweating profusely in the sun and practicing swinging a sword.

Wait until the girl rushes all the way to the academy.

finally--

She rushed to the classroom half an hour before class.

"Rhine——! Here, here!" As soon as she entered the classroom, the girl's friend spotted her and waved to her.

"Good morning, Claire."

"Good morning. Rhine, come and see this! I found a super good-looking 'hero biography' in Violet Bookstore today!" Claire said excitedly.

She was the girl who sat in front of Violet Bookstore and read the story of 'King Arthur'.

Seeing her good friend at this time, Claire immediately couldn't help but want to 'preach'.

"King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table" is such a good book, it must be known to the whole world!

Let's start with her good friend!

"Huh, huh, huh? Eh——!?" Rhine opened her mouth slightly, looking at her good friend who forced a 'book' into her hand in surprise.

"Hurry up, hurry up. Let's read it together before class starts."

Hearing her friend's words, Rhine subconsciously opened the book in her hand, but happened to turn to an illustration.

"Huh? This illustration... I haven't seen it yet! Wow, is this blond Arthur what he looks like when he grows up?! So handsome!" Claire on the side said with stars in her eyes.

At this time, the illustration shows two knights facing each other.

One of them is Arthur, who has already held the holy sword and is holding it tightly, looking at the opposite side coldly.

The other is Mordred, who is wrapped in a horned helmet and also holding a beautiful sword.

This picture is the Easter egg illustration that Yan put in the book. Basically, every few dozen pages, there will be an illustration of "Knights of the Round Table" or "Merlin, Arthur".

When Rhine saw this illustration, her heart suddenly tightened and her breathing was short.

All because she saw the two lines of words written below the horned helmet warrior in the corner of the illustration.

Mordred's hoarse and complex voice: "——Father..."

Narration: In the final analysis, he just wanted to cure his father's loneliness, and chose to embark on the road to becoming a king for this.

'In order to cure his father's loneliness... choose to embark on the road to becoming a king? ! ' Although she didn't know this person and hadn't started to understand this book.

The moment the girl saw those two lines, she was stunned.

‘Without the talent of a warrior, give up! You can’t inherit my title of Hero King.’ The man’s cold eyes and calm words seemed to be still vivid.

Although at that time, his face did not show any extra emotions.

The young daughter clearly felt his inner sorrow.

She was only 8 years old at that time. While feeling infinitely wronged, she couldn’t help asking herself in her heart:

‘Why, aren’t you a boy? ’

If it were a boy, perhaps he would have the talent of a warrior!

If it were a boy, if it were a boy…

Rhine, who had never been interested in ‘heroic biography’, suddenly had a deep desire to explore the ‘horn’ knight in the book.

The girl’s pretty face suddenly tensed up.

If possible, she also wanted to heal her father’s loneliness.

What did this horn warrior in the book do in the end? Rhine suddenly wanted to know that thing very much.

Without Claire’s urging, she hesitated for a moment, turned back to the first page, and began to read the book.

‘Volume 1. The Sword of the Chosen King – The Sword in the Stone’ by Andersen.

Chapter 44: The black-hearted Merry, the old king who betrayed his son!

Time passed by little by little, and Rhine and the others quickly finished reading the first half of the story.

Claire also reviewed the previous story again.

From the beginning, they were in the mood to explore the ‘horned knight’.

In the end, the descendants of this heroic king were gradually attracted by the interesting plots and those profound words in the story.

At this time, they had seen the timeline of Arthur’s coming of age and were completely immersed in the world of the book.

At this moment – ​​the teacher of ‘Potions’ had come at some point, but the two girls who were still immersed in the sea of ​​books did not notice this.

When the old professor above had already started the class –

…

After reading the first two illustrations of Merry. And the story of her teaching Arthur swordsmanship.

Rhine’s little face showed a rather amazing and admiring expression.

“Swordsmanship and magic dual cultivation –” the girl said enviously.

This lady named Meili seems to have a deep foundation in magic and swordsmanship.

How did she do it? She also wants to be a "magician" like that!

At this time, the plot of the book also began to reach an important turning point.

The original daily life of Arthur, Merlin, and brother Kay disappeared.

The picture suddenly turned to the perspective of the old king.

King Yushi Panzogan suddenly fell ill. The magic spirit Meili appeared in front of the king again.

She persuaded the king: "Don't always lie in bed to rest. Even if you lie in the sedan chair, you have to go to the battlefield to command the military; only if you go to the battlefield in person can you overwhelm the enemy and win."

The king listened to the advice of the magic spirit.

Sure enough -

When the sedan chair carrying the king went to the battlefield, the sedan chair led a large group of people and rushed to the enemy. In St. Alban, the king came into contact with the team from the north.

On this day, two outstanding knights, Pheas and Bryceus, showed excellent martial arts, and the troops led by the king finally defeated the invaders from the north.

The king returned to the capital excitedly with this amazing victory.

However, he fell ill even faster.

This expedition did not alleviate his illness, but made it worse.

The ministers went to consult the demon spirit again, but this time Meili replied directly: "There is no cure, we can only rely on God's will. Please go to King Yushi tomorrow and listen to his final instructions."

Translated, it means 'There is no hope, wait for death! '
