The night before I was supposed to spar with Benedick. An old man who was discussing various things with me suddenly said something like this.

‘why? ‘Can’t we compete?’

Grandpa was right. Learning through practice can only occur if the difference between the two is not large.

If you think about the difference between me and Benedick, all I can get from our sparring is a sense of how monstrous Benedick is.

Without knowing this, there were two reasons why I asked Benedick to spar.

One is to feel how high a monster named Benedick is. The other is to let Benedick know how much stronger I have become.

When the second year at Soul Academy begins, the main story will begin again.

Now, the evil god’s forces are quiet because I have destroyed the evil god of darkness and also destroyed the evil god of Menesteil, but they are just waiting for their time. There’s no way they’re giving up on the academy.

Because there is something lurking in Soul Academy that they must obtain.

In the process of preventing that, I will be throwing myself into even greater danger than I am now. Maybe, no, I will definitely have to face the risk of death several more times.

To those who don’t know the English language, you will probably end up committing suicide several times.

Every time that happens, Benedick feels heartbroken. Every time I throw myself into danger, I will struggle with countless worries.

To him, I am nothing more than a fragile daughter who needs to be protected.

So, I plan to change the perception through this sparring. It will ease his worries a little by showing you that you are strong enough to overcome the crisis on your own without him having to worry.

At the same time, I also want to make Benedick less likely to have a fit and try to dissuade me.

When my grandfather heard my story like this, he made a laughing voice. The fact that I thought it was amazing was naturally revealed in my tone of voice.

‘If you know, please stop talking and continue the discussion. I can’t see the answer yet.’

What I asked Benedick to do was just a light sparring match, but since he was my opponent, I did not neglect preparation.

I felt that if I didn’t make a desperate effort, it would only increase Benedick’s worries, so I wandered around looking for a way to give him a beating.

I had many discussions with my grandfather, recalling Benedick’s movements that I saw last time in Menesteil.

He also asked for advice from knights including Porcell.

I sparred repeatedly and tried to raise my sense of real-life combat as much as possible.

But the more I prepared for the sparring, the more I realized how high up Benedick was.

The knights of Aln are strong enough that I can barely compete with them now. Benedick was the one laughing, saying that it was hard to even imagine winning against these guys.

‘In the end, the biggest problem is the overwhelming lack of specifications.’

The moment I was worried that if I continued like this, I would definitely be played with without being able to do anything, let alone give him a hit, a notification sound rang in my ear.

[Quest completed!]

It seems like the story went well when Heishan and the second queen met.

Well, Heishan didn’t seem to have a bad opinion of the second queen, and the second queen clearly showed a desire to ask for forgiveness.

When Karia returns later, I’ll ask her how things went.

[Compensation will be paid!]

[Choose the stat you want to increase!]

As I saw the blue windows popping up one after another, I smiled, thinking that reward had come at the moment I needed it most.

The stat of 10 given to me now is not just about improving my physical abilities a little.

The moment four of a character’s stats exceed 100, a skill is given.

This skill, named [Superhuman Flesh], has many positive effects on the character.

Increased physical strength. Increases damage inflicted and reduces damage received. There are many other benefits, so it was essential to acquire this skill whether quickly or slowly. There is a quest linked to this skill in the game.

I don’t know how this will be applied in reality. But it’s clear that dealing with Benedick will be of great help.

So I know it’s essential to get this skill now and adapt to the changes throughout the night.

[Do you really want to increase your agility?]

I couldn’t make the decision easily.

Why?

What should I do if my poor intelligence keeps getting in my head?

If I don’t improve my intelligence this time, I’ll remain an idiot for the rest of my life!

Do you hold on to a ray of hope in the midst of the impossible? Are you taking the opportunity to go from being an idiot to being less of an idiot? As I continued to worry about the balance that seemed to be tilted to one side, I eventually improved my agility.

Bye Bye. My stupid intelligence. Someday, I will definitely raise it to a normal level! Someday!

The moment I chose to increase my agility as compensation, an excruciating level of pain spread throughout my body, incomparable to when I took the elixir.

Only then did I realize that this reward was no different from consuming an elixir. Since this is a method of forcibly increasing abilities and changing the body, it is natural for it to hurt! Stupid me! You didn’t even think of this!?

The moment I grabbed the desk and forced myself to endure the pain, a blue window appeared in front of me.

[Skill Superhuman’s body will be provided!]

That was the end of my memories.

I literally lost my mind.

A while later, I woke up in the morning, but I couldn’t tell what had changed.

Outwardly, nothing had changed, and it wasn’t something that could be felt as if the status of the body had changed.

Even when I asked my grandfather and the stupid fox what happened while I was unconscious, the only answer they got was that I was just stretched out.

Now that things were like this, I had to move my body myself to test the performance of the skill, but when I woke up, the time to spar with Benedick was already right around the corner, so I couldn’t do that.

In the end, after finishing the basic warm-up, I ended up standing across from Benedick.

“Two people. Are you ready?”

In the middle of the sparring hall, I confidently nodded my head in response to Porcell’s question, and Benedick carefully lowered his chin as he looked at me.

“Then let’s start sparring.”

I ran forward as soon as Porcell took a step back.

My grandfather kept nagging me for ignoring advice, but I ignored it.

Benedick’s foolish behavior was too annoying to continue sparring calmly.

It’s true that I’m weaker than Benedick, but I’m still weaker than that monster! I’m not even cautious enough to even extend my hand!

Even though Benedick saw my rush, he didn’t react in any way. I just watch closely what I’m doing.

Annoyed by this almost dismissive behavior, I put all my effort into the first attack.

The divinity spread throughout the body gathers at the tip of the mace and shines like a single sun.

The ultimate in strengthening through divinity. A fatal blow taught by the grandfather who invented sacred martial arts.

As I was firing out attacks that I had practiced countless times with my grandfather in my dreams, I understood how the skill of a superhuman body works in reality.

The function of this skill is simple. It just makes you use your body better.

The trajectory of the skill that erases the inefficiencies that originally existed in the body and guides efficient movement was a type I was familiar with.

Because the cry of the iron wall that had helped me so far was similar to this.

So I was able to apply the help of the skill immediately.

“Get lost!♡”

Benedick, who was just staring blankly at the blow that was fired with maximum power, raised the corners of his mouth only when my mace came towards his head.

Then he slowly pulled back his shoulder and rammed his fist toward my mace.

It looked flimsy at first glance, but the power contained within it was completely different.

The monster’s fist, which had transcended humanity, was equivalent to a human’s deadly force.

Kwaaang!

The shock wave created when Benedick’s fist meets my special move causes snow to fly around.

“You’ve become stronger. Lucy.”

Through the snow, I saw blood flowing from Benedick’s fist.

I saw Benedick’s body thrown backwards, unable to withstand the shock.

I saw my growing blow reach Benedick.

“Are you also an Aln?”

However, my joy could not last long. As soon as Benedick’s face filled with laughter, his mood changed completely.

“Okay. Lucy. I admit it. This father was not facing you properly.”

“…Uh. Papa? Do you know that Papa’s eyes are like that of an animal right now? I’m so scared of being attacked?!”

“But not anymore. I learned from you and from your friends, so this father will have to change too.”

After seeing Benedick raise his body’s magical power, I strengthened my body with divinity to survive.

‘grandfather! Help me! ‘Tell me how to stop that monster!’

‘why!’

‘Grandpa, you’re so petty!’

“I will go. Lucy.”

*

“There is no monster.”

When Arthur, who was watching Benedick and Lucy’s sparring outside the sparring hall, let out a laugh, Joey next to him indifferently asked.

“Which one?”

“Both.”

Benedick, who overwhelms his opponents with only his overwhelming physical strength in a situation without armor or weapons, or Lucy or Arthur, who fall to their feet countless times in a series of blows that make an explosion sound every time they are thrown, or Arthur, who eventually rises to their feet, are not enough to be called monsters. There wasn’t.

“Is the young lady that great? I’m not sure because it’s hard for me to catch up with my eyes right now.”

“I can’t say anything. joy. If you were in Lucy Aln’s position, you would have been crushed before you could last even a second.”

“What about the prince?”

“If it were me…”

Arthur could not bear to speak. How could he express confidence in the face of the sight of the wall called Lucy Alln, which he had never been able to break down, being shattered with every punch?

“…about 2 seconds.”

“There is no difference.”

Joey, who had crushed Arthur with a single word, asked Frey, who leaned forward as if he would run away at any moment.

“How about the Lady of Kent? How long do you think you can last?”

“…”

“Lady of Kent?”

“…I don’t know. But I want to hang out just once.”

“In that case, it’s the same for me. Even if I get completely destroyed, I want to stand in front of you.”

“What would happen if I asked Lucy?”

“Hmm. I think it’s possible. Arn Baek will never be able to ignore Lucy Arn’s words.”

While Arthur and Frey discussed how to persuade Lucy, Joey looked at them in disgust.

How can you think of wanting to fight even after seeing something like that with your own eyes?

I just don’t understand.
