Chapter Index

    Kim Jae-yoon, who was a little disoriented after eating chicken and beer, said nonsense, but teaching him martial arts was not as difficult as I thought.

    Well, first of all, I am also a martial artist who has reached the pinnacle of being evaluated as an expert in his own way… Kim Jae-yoon’s basic talent was quite good as he originally played the role of the main character of this world. Although he didn’t know that he was the main character.

    What I was teaching him was the Cheonpungkenbeop, which is the sword technique I have used the most so far, and the Cheonpungsimbeop, which is a good inner strength technique.

    Even if it is true about the Cheonpung Sword Technique, I have something to say if you ask me why they taught me the Cheonpung Simbeop and not the Changgung Dae Yeonsin Technique that I am learning. No matter how different the world may be, it is difficult to teach one of the most important visions of the Namgung family, Changgung Daeyeonsingong.

    Even though I became the son-in-law of the Namgung family, I was not allowed to learn the art of Changgung. The reason why I use the Changgung Dae-Yeonshin-Gong was because it was automatically registered as a souvenir while I was being interrogated and criticized by my teacher.

    ‘And just doing this much is enough. Honestly, Kim Jae-yoon is better than me when it comes to talent.’

    -Isn’t that a deception?

    This means that it is compared to me in its original state. I am now a body that has been upgraded with various souvenirs, so it is meaningless to compare.

    Anyway, Kim Jae-yoon learned swordsmanship by combining the protagonist’s talent, increased physical ability by using the tower’s status window, and correction of job skills.

    Then, the very next day, from the monster wave on the 4th day, he began to show a change.

    In the wave of the 4th day, a mixture of hobgoblins and direwolves, beast-type monsters resembling wolves, came rushing in.

    The direwolf was as large as a giant tiger, and for such a size, its movements were very agile.

    Goblins and hobgoblins easily jumped over the wooden fence that was coming up with a few lunges.

    Ordinary people would see the movement and say, ‘Uh… ‘It was at a speed that made it feel like my neck was going to be bitten off.

    But that’s just a story for the general public.

    Sigh!

    “Kkegaeng… !”

    The direwolf jumped up for no reason, but fell down with a whimper, its belly skin split by the sword swung by Kim Jae-yoon.

    Suddenly!

    “Kyaaaa!!”

    This time, he aimed precisely at the hobgoblin’s joints and severed his arm.

    Although he was still just imitating and there were a lot of noises, Kim Jae-yoon was already using the Cheonpung Sword Technique in actual combat.

    -Compared to the owner, I’m just at the level of gymnastics?

    ‘It’s amazing that you can even imitate something you practiced all night.’

    Strangely enough, Maria had a tendency to be judgmental towards others except me.

    Anyway, the interesting thing here is that the Cheonpung Sword Technique I taught was corrected by Kim Jae-yoon’s sword fighting skill.

    Martial arts were not registered as separate skills, so the tower’s system seemed to treat Kim Jae-yoon’s Cheonpung Sword Technique as a method of sword fighting.

    Thanks to this, Kim Jae-yoon was able to make more powerful attacks than before even with such stuttering sword techniques.

    ‘It’s a top system scam.’

    -… Where did your conscience go?

    Although it seemed like he was still having a hard time with the mental aspect, there was something called magical power in this world, so it didn’t seem like it would take too long to get the hang of it.

    “… It’s over.”

    As I was looking towards Kim Jae-yoon, Janey came up to me with a sullen expression and started talking to me. It’s not that he wasn’t looking at her, but he reacted like a child whose attention was taken away.

    Seeing that Kim Jae-yoon was just facing the last monster, it seemed like Janey was still stronger.

    I smiled slightly and stroked her hair carefully so as not to get it tangled. This level of complaining falls into the category of cuteness.

    “Good job. How about swordsmanship?”

    “It’s difficult, but I like it.”

    Janey answered, brushing her hand down the hilt of the sword hanging around her waist. It was a high-quality Cheonggang sword that I gave her as a gift yesterday. She’s my woman, but shouldn’t she use a better sword than the one she gave Kim Jae-yoon?

    The martial art I taught her was Changgungbiyeongeom (蒼穹飛燕劍), but this swordsmanship was not something I had formally learned. He simply had a scanned copy of the rank in the military library of the Namgung family. So, I couldn’t teach in as much detail as I did to Jaeyoon Kim.

    -But seeing as you finished it faster than Kim Jae-yoon, I don’t think that’s necessarily true, right?

    ‘It’s because swordsmanship suits Janey well.’

    Due to the nature of the Namgung family, which mainly focuses on strong and medium sword martial arts, most martial arts did not suit Janey, who was female.

    Even if you supplemented your physical abilities with your abilities, it was better to maximize your strengths rather than forcing yourself to learn a steel sword that had no benefit.

    That’s why I taught Janey not the Cheonpung Sword Technique, but the Changgung Rainyeongeom Technique.

    Although the Changgung Biyeongeom still has the feel of a strong sword, it is basically based on the techniques of the Yugeom, so it was thought that it would go well with Janey. Because the characteristic of the Changgungbi Yeongeom was that the sword path could be switched flexibly, like a swallow flying in the sky.

    ‘Well, the results came out as good as expected.’

    Meanwhile, Kim Jae-yoon also took care of the last monster and approached us.

    He spoke to the two people in front of him.

    “You both did well. But you must not neglect training. Right now, we haven’t even scratched the surface, so it won’t work against an opponent who has learned proper swordsmanship.”

    They also nodded and agreed.

    It was easy because the opponent was a monster with low intelligence, but their clumsy swordsmanship was full of loopholes. It will probably take quite some time to refine that part.

    Seeing the slightly calm atmosphere, I smiled and said.

    “Still, I did incredibly well for something I only learned for one day. Yesterday was chicken and beer, so should we try barbecue today?”

    Then Janey, with her eyes wide open, nodded, and Jaeyoon Kim let out a small cheer.

    “Yes.”

    “K… ! Good!”

    When we returned to the open space in the village, we brought out a lot of meat and had a party.

    Kim Jae-yoon almost looked like he was self-torturing himself due to the endless amount of meat he ate. Even when I was told that I could leave some food if I was full, he shook his head.

    “If not today, when will we have another opportunity like this? Starting tomorrow, I have to work hard again.”

    At the same time, he looked quite happy as he chugged down the beer can, so I didn’t stop him any further. Since I have the ability, I won’t pretend to do it anyway.

    After a while, when the barbecue party was almost over, Kim Jae-yoon came up to me.

    Thor and Janey entered the container house first.

    “Brother, I have something to tell you.”

    “What do you mean, to set the mood like this?”

    His face was solemn, as if he had made up his mind about something.

    Kim Jae-yoon was grateful that I was teaching him martial arts, but he was not sure whether learning martial arts would be of much help in a situation where there was already a convenient system called skills.

    However, after using martial arts directly against monsters, I felt like I realized its power.

    Considering what he just said.

    “Actually, I have something called a guide.”

    “What… ?”

    For a moment, I felt dazed. This was because words that were not expected at all came out of Kim Jae-yoon’s mouth.

    Kim Jae-yoon began a detailed explanation, probably thinking that the reason I reacted that way was because what he said was so unexpected.

    “It may seem like a lie, but everything I say from now on is true. For me, the ability to search various information about the floor I am currently staying on… … .”

    The story that followed was indeed about what I knew: ‘A Transferor’s Guide to Climbing the Tower’.

    ‘… ‘This is a little surprising.’

    -Iknow, right.

    I didn’t expect that he would already be honest with me about the guidebook. I thought maybe I could keep it a secret until the end…

    I think it was because I showed Kim Jae-yoon my abilities without hiding them. Rather than hiding the guide, he came to believe that it was right to reveal the truth and cooperate with me.

    When I glanced behind Kim Jae-yoon, I saw several crushed beer cans rolling around.

    ‘… ‘Is it just because I’m drunk?’

    -Maybe he thought his master might abandon him.

    ‘Throw it away?’

    -Considering that we have just reached the second floor of the tower, the master’s strength is at an extraordinary level. To be honest, Kim Jae-yoon is talented in his own way, but even if the master decides to climb the tower alone, there is no reason for him to catch him.

    Even though Maria said that, it wasn’t exactly like that.

    As I said before, some of the tower tests require other transferencers. If you don’t have a clan, you’ll have to take the test with a random transferee, and there’s no guarantee that you won’t get caught by a troll.

    Although it is attractive to be able to make a wish when you reach the top of the tower, no country can conquer the 100th floor in one go. If you go up too quickly by yourself and the minimum number of people to take the test are not gathered, you will have to wait for other transferees to come up.

    Above all, it is not fun to climb the tower alone in silence.

    In that sense, it was not worth considering that I was abandoning Kim Jae-yoon, who had great potential, was not worried about betraying me, and could occasionally search for parts omitted from the original work as a guide.

    -But Kim Jae-yoon doesn’t know that the owner has such thoughts. From his perspective, the master is an incredible person whom he met less than a month ago. You have to do whatever it takes to catch it.

    ‘that… yes.’
