“Squall.”

“Your father.”

“You’re drinking in broad daylight and fighting with your sister. Are you going to be immature forever just because the tribe thinks you’re cute?”

“It’s not like that…”

“I never asked you to answer.”

Squall, who was trying to make an excuse, kept his mouth shut.

His father, Beast King Varg, was a heavy man.

It was the same with words as well as actions. Under most circumstances, it doesn’t even blink once, but when it starts moving in earnest, it’s like a storm. If I made a fuss in front of him, I would just fly away.

As Skoll lowered the rigidly erected bridge, Varg slowly turned to Hati and said,

“Hathi.”

“Yes, father.”

“Did you resolve the matter at Nuwas well?”

Hati, with a triumphant expression on his face, responded immediately.

“yes! I won the duel with the Bedouin warrior Zahar! “For the next ten years, those pastures will belong to us Fenrir people!”

“is it.”

To the Fenrir people, the pasture was not that important.

Nevertheless, it was something that could not just be handed over to someone else, and once it was seen as easy, plunder and invasions continued.

Hathi’s victory was nothing short of preserving the pride of the prisoners.

Varg stretched out his right hand with a faint smile.

“Well done daughter.”

When his hand, rough with calluses and scars, patted the top of her head, Hati’s ears perked up and her tail waggled.

It was a reaction that clearly showed that he was happy.

After stroking it a few times and letting go, Barg finally turned his eyes to Leon and the others. Leon, who was watching from behind, finally realized what he looked like.

Gray hair flowing majestically like a lion.

A quiet presence, as if standing in the center of a whirlpool.

Is it because I became younger once I became an Auror Master? His age was estimated to be around mid to late 30s.

‘The body and face look young… but the eyes are deep.’

someone said

A person’s eyes are the window that reveals the soul.

Beast King Varg’s dark green eyes contained a legacy that could never be completed in 30 years. If I had never met strong people like Kasim or Irexana, it would have been difficult to even look them in the eye.

Barg smiled deeply with bright eyes when no one in Leon’s group looked away.

“indeed. “You are guests that Hathi would call distinguished guests.”

They then shouted to the crowd surrounding them.

“The commotion is over, so please disperse!”

The people who had been scattering knowingly or unknowingly since Varg appeared heard those words and returned to their places. What they expected was the cute fight between the two siblings, not a conversation with the King of Beasts, who is difficult to deal with comfortably.

The vacant lot, which was crowded with Fenrir people, soon became empty except for Leon and his two siblings.

“Now, let’s move to a place to talk.”

Barg winked at the two siblings and turned his back.

It was an unspoken instruction for you to guide the guests.

Unlike Squall, who was unable to hide his rough face from earlier, Hati actively led the group. I was running with the intention of catching Squall by the collar, so I couldn’t even give directions properly.

Hati explained with a bright smile why she was so happy to be praised by her father.

“My father’s residence is a bit far from the village. They like quiet and high places. “He doesn’t like it when the villagers try to pay too much attention to him.”

“You are an ancient person.”

“That’s a good expression. “It’s so noble, so I have to say that too.”

Before we knew it, Hati had come out of the village and was pointing somewhere.

“Oh, there it is. “Where my father’s residence is.”

The eyes of Leon and the others naturally followed the finger.

Then, no matter who was first, I was taken aback.

“Are you talking about that rocky mountain?”

The place pointed to by the tip of Hati’s index finger was a rugged rocky mountain where not even a single weed could survive.

Estimated height is over 800 meters.

There was no normal path to climb, but you had to climb up a wall that was round and carved like a pillar. Even mountain oaks, famous for their ability to climb cliffs, were at a level where they had to write down a will.

However, even the method of climbing up that rocky mountain went beyond common sense.

Jeez.

Since he was advancing dozens of meters ahead of the group, it was natural that he was the first to reach the rocky mountain.

Varg took a step forward casually.

I started walking horizontally on a wall that was steep at almost 90 degrees!

“…Incredible.”

“So you can’t imitate that?”

Ellahan and Karen saw its essence and were amazed.

A beat later, Leon also realized it.

‘Nonsense.’

If you are an Auror user, you can climb as much as you want on a horizontal wall. Nevertheless, the three people were impressed because Varg did not use aurors at all.

So, are you holding on to the wall with your feet? That wasn’t it either.

He was climbing a horizontal wall as if walking on flat ground, supporting his weight with the very narrow contact surface of the soles of his feet.

“Well, I didn’t tell you to climb the same way.”

Ellahan bent both knees first.

The thighs trained beyond the habit contracted once and then expanded greatly, launching her body into the air.

Kwaaaaang!

As a reaction, an oval-shaped crater appeared on the ground, and the squall that followed without thinking opened its mouth.

It wasn’t just Ellahan.

Whether he was surprised or not, Karen also quickly jumped up.

Papa papa pap!

Just because it is a steep cliff does not mean that there are no protruding parts. Karen stepped on an uneven surface that was exactly a few centimeters wide and jumped to the next step.

The two people’s backs quickly moved upward and away.

Leon bent his knees to follow, but then tilted his head, feeling uncomfortable of unknown origin.

‘what?’

I can’t get the image of Varg climbing up the wall out of my mind.

Like you can do it too.

The attitude that seemed like a demonstration held him back.

‘Let’s give it a try.’

Even if you fail, you will only be embarrassed.

Leon stretched out his feet while receiving strange looks from Squall and Hati. Press the soles of your feet against the wall like Barg did.

Then lift the other foot.

The Auror did not move even a single inch, using pure physical power.

“uh?”

done.

Leon’s eyes widened at the absurdly easy success.

It was a feeling that was familiar.

A technique to control the center of gravity and adjust one’s body according to the environment and situation. This principle was the same as what had been engraved into my body and mind through harsh teachings in the past.

‘…This is !’

[Do you understand now?]

El Cid said harshly.

[, which I taught Doggy, is a martial art whose fundamental principle of strength lies in . It may be in the area of applied technology, but you can follow the basics.]

‘Do you mean alumni?’

[Just because the upstream stream is the same does not mean that the tributaries are all the same. We just share the patriarch called ‘I’. I feel like Hackapell is the head of the sect and you are the successor to the main sect.]

Leon nodded at those words and moved his feet.

It is not as fast and accurate as Barg, but it walks up walls without using Aura. With each step, control of the center of gravity becomes easier and body shaking is reduced.

Even though I only saw Barg’s demonstration in front of me once, my skill level increased as if the elements that were lacking in were made up for.

‘Have you by any chance taught me a lesson?’

It was something I didn’t know yet.

* * *

It was a few minutes later.

After climbing a rocky mountain over 800 meters high, the group finally arrived at Barg’s residence and looked around.

Karen said as she looked around the horizon in all four directions.

“The scenery is pretty nice. “It’s too cumbersome to come up, though.”

“Oh sister!”

It seemed like something he had told Varg to hear, and Hati immediately turned pale and clung to her arm.

Fortunately, Varg just smiled.

There was a barracks on top of a rocky mountain whose construction I don’t know how it was built. A round roof was made in preparation for rain, and pillars were driven several meters into the ground to prevent it from being shaken by the wind.

Beast King Varg’s residence was simple yet full of contradictory feelings that were difficult to overcome.

“As expected…?”

Varg did not enter the barracks immediately, but turned around.

His intense gaze was fixed on Leon.

The reason was simple.

“I showed it to you just in case, but I didn’t expect you to follow along on the spot. Did it help you on your way forward?”

Leon answered those words honestly.

“Yes, I learned a lesson properly.”

“Today is a very happy day to meet someone who has inherited his legacy like us. “If your grandfather were sane, he would have given you the cup.”

“Now wait a minute, father! “That person…!”

Hathi, who tried to join in on the two people’s conversation, was caught by Ellahan and struggled to move. This was because Leon gestured to stop her from saying anything.

Varg saw that and said with an interesting face.

“Is there still something I need to know?”

“yes.”

Leon put his hand on his waist and pulled out the holy sword.

Keying.

A holy sword in its true form, not in the form of a shabby longsword. El-Cid burned, bouncing off the sunlight.

Instead of reflected light, the sword itself glows with golden light.

A light that seems to embrace all things.

The holy sword revealed itself and was aimed at Varg.

“The warrior Leon, the immediate disciple of Rodrigo Caldias El Vivar, requests a courtesy from the current successor of the sect ‘Tenrang’.”

“…Hoo.”

This time, Barg’s face became serious.

The speculation that was already flowing with the intention of competing once has been increased in quality and quantity to the point where it is visible.

No, it’s a little bit, but even life is mixing together.

It means that he is not convinced by Leon’s words.

“I can’t just ignore that comment, even if it’s my daughter’s guest.”

“How about giving it a try?”

“You have good spirit. “To the point where I want my son to watch and learn.”

The wind flowing around Varg’s body flows back.

master.

A transcendent being that had shed its shell as a living being was shaking the laws of physics with its will.

“But I have no intention of fighting for life or death. “Let’s set some rules and conditions.”

Varg, with a sinister look on his face, stretched out three fingers.

“But you are free to attack me. However, I will not use the Auror Blade and will only attack your backside. Two, I will give you three effective hits, but if you succeed even once, I will consider you defeated. “How is it?”

“What is the third?”

“The last condition is…”

Varg pointed to his leg and kicked the ground.

“Regardless of the conditions set earlier, I will assume that you lose if your feet come off the ground together. Otherwise, I don’t think the game will be successful.”

Even though they knew the difference in each other’s skills, the provocation was strong.

So much so that the grip holding the sword hilt creaked for a moment.

[Calm down, idiot.]

If it weren’t for El Cid, I might have just jumped at him.

Leon immediately calmed down and listened to his advice.

[I’m sorry, but it’s exactly what that guy said. As of now, you can’t catch that guy. When 〈Cheonrang〉 reaches master level, it is possible to step on the air, accelerate, or leap.]

‘What?! ‘It’s not even magic, so that’s possible?’

[Auras and magic are all the same when they reach the extreme. It’s just that the areas that work well are a little different.]

Suddenly, a circle centered around the two people was completed.

Leon and Varg.

The top of the rocky mountain, which was wider than I expected, was manageable if it was a fight of light striking. A decisive battle technique such as the Seven Star Sword cannot be used carelessly, but it was not so narrow that it interfered with movement.

“Would you like to start?”

Varg asked, standing across from him.

The spacing is about 50 meters.

Even if you accelerate at full speed, two steps are still necessary.

“Let’s begin.”

Leon answered like that and raised his sword.

As long as you don’t know what ‘Cheonrang’ is, the most appropriate attitude is to be able to respond to any situation.

My physical condition is perfect.

As the stigmata shine in unison, full power fills up.

I felt confident that I could accomplish anything.

“-hmm.”

however.

Varg, the Heavenly God Wind Treasure (天狼迅風步), Lee

Hyeong-hwan-wi (移形換位),

caught up with Leon in just one step.

In an instant, it even surpasses the speed of 〈Anbeop〉, leaving an afterimage that is no different from the real thing. This speed was one of the states revered as the pinnacle of pleasure in Eastern martial arts.

Comma 3 seconds.

The time it took for Leon to realize that he had left only an afterimage and turn around to see the figure behind him.

“As a senior with no veins, I will make the first move.”

Feeling the blade of his hand touching the nape of his neck, Leon felt the dry saliva that he could not swallow.

died once.

There was no room to even react.

Even though he scored first, Barg, who nullified the score, retreated again to a gap of 50 meters. The gap, which can never be said to be close, feels like a knife hanging over a vital point.

“Do your best.”

Barg said.

“Even if I lose this match, I won’t have any time left.”

The successor of , one of the martial arts veins left behind by Holy King Roderick, quickly blocked the current warrior’s path.
