Leveling Up Through Eating

Chapter 11.2

Translator: ChubbyCheeks

Minhyuk sported a weird expression as Roina approached him. Besides, what she said to him was extremely shocking.

"Would you like to learn swordsmanship from me?"

"Yes?"

[Instructor Roina has offered to teach you the Bardy Swordsmanship.]

[You can now travel freely between Ardo's Novice Hunting Training Grounds and Isbin Village.]

[You have gained 3 reputation points.]

[Accepting the offer will create a skill quest.]

"There's no special reason. I'm just a bit bored. And since I saw you doing that repeatedly yesterday and today, why not turn that into training practice."

Although she kept on spinning words like that what Roina said was in fact, not the truth.

Why did Instructor Valen give him Valan?

He's determined… He's a person with a strong will.

He's resolute. [1]

And he's not conceited.

Plus his body knows how to move.

That was what Roina thought when she observed Minhyuk.

'I want to help this person too.'

It was such a strange thought but for her, user Minhyuk always seems to give off good energy.

Whenever she saw him she always wanted to cheer him on and give him some sort of help.

'Was this why Instructor Valen approved of him?'

That was what she thought. She was sure of it.

That's why Roina was very determined to teach him swordsmanship.

"Hmmmmmm…."

However, Minhyuk was stroking his chin in thought.

"All… All the other users were dying to learn from me, you know?!"

"Uh-huh…"

"It's true!"

"Really~?"

Minhyuk only has one reason to worry about…

The training course that she would implement.

Will the training course be as hard as the exercise I do?

For him who only exercises so he could eat he did not consider being strong to be important right now. If the training course wasn't that intense he would still feel hunger.

"Is it hard?"

"Please stop. Do you want to scream in pain?"

"Then please teach me!"

'I've never seen a guy who likes working out this much…'

Minhyuk nodded at her hard as the quest window appeared.

[Quest: Practice the Bardy Swordsmanship.]

Rank: D

Limit: None

Rewards: Bardy Swordsmanship.

Penalty for Failure: Roina's favorability will drop

Description: Roina, who was called as the Sword Genius, personally told you that she would train you. Fill the 'Training Progress' to 100% in a week and then you can use the Bardy Swordsmanship.

Minhyuk nodded.

There was a line on the upper-left hand corner that said 'Training Progress 0%.'

Quests truly appear in a lot of different ways.

There were various factors, anomalies and existences in Athenae. It was entirely possible that all NPCs could give quests.

But one thing was for sure. In a way, a quest was a promise with the NPC.

In the case of the rewards, if the person who received the quest completes it then they would definitely get the rewards.

"Well then, let's start."

Shiiiing!

Roina removed her sword from her waist.

Riiip!

She stabbed at him with all her might that it sounded like the air was being torn apart.

Minhyuk was very amazed at the ripping sound.

"Wow…"

"Follow me, Minhyuk."

"Yes!"

Minhyuk stabbed as hard as Roina did. This was the beginning of their training.

After two hours…

"Please, stop!"

"....?"

Minhyuk did what Roina told him to do. He looked at her curiously.

"Why did you train for two hours straight without even resting?! Let me take a break!"

"If I don't do this much I'll definitely get hungry. Ehhei, Instructor don't talk about resting, let's continue. There's no time to rest!"

Roina gasped as she watched Minhyuk.

Is his determination this strong?!

Meanwhile she was very amazed at him.

'What kind of comprehension is this…' [2]

What kind of fighting spirit does he have?

Minhyuk did not forget any of the moves she taught him. And his movements kept on getting better and better.

He was like a sponge absorbing water with the way he understood everything he has been taught.

And Minhyuk's eyes still looked as serious as ever.

'Oyya, let's see who will suffer in defeat!'

"Hoo? Roina taught you the Bardy Swordsmanship?"

Instructor Valen was a bit surprised when he heard Minhyuk.

"That's right, Instructor."

Minhyuk has been sending Roina's letters to Instructor Valen for the past few days.

He has already filled up to 90% of the Bardy Swordsmanship's training progress and he would soon be able to complete it.

"Today, Instructor Roina wanted me to send you this letter together with this rose as usual."

Valen accepted what Minhyuk gave him.

'This guy…'

Was what Valen thought as he looked at the roses. He then checked the contents of the letter.

[Loyalty. This is Roina. Do you remember the time when you saved my life? I really wanted to treat you to a meal after that. So I'll send you fried chicken through Minhyuk. And I like you Instructor…!]

Instructor Valen shook his head and smiled a bit after reading the letter.

"Boy, you're leaving now huh. I can tell from this letter."

Roina's confession.

Valen looked calmer than he thought when he saw the confession.

"Yes. It's about time I go."

"Have you achieved your goals?"

"No. I haven't had fried chicken yet!"

"You'll probably make it tonight."

Valen laughed at him while Minhyuk did not know what it meant.

Minhyuk then returned to Roina and trained and at some point…

Ring!

[You have achieved 100% in the training progress of Bardy Swordsmanship.]

[You can now use Bardy Swordsmanship.]

The skill's rating works the same as the item's rating. Minhyuk did not hesitate to read the information.

Footnotes

[1] determined, has a strong will and resolute are the same thing. I think the author just wants to emphasize his resoluteness. As they say, important things need to be said thrice. ㅋㅋ

[2] so the raws says 흡수력 which is absorbing power… Idk how to phrase it well so I did that.
