Chapter 142: Duel (2)


How could one deflect a sword with bare hands, even in movies this is a hard move to pull!

Then, a welcome notification appeared.

[Blade Dance cooldown is over.]

This time. Try blocking this!

Go Nam-cheols sword danced once more.

His momentum was such that it seemed he would leave no flesh uncut, but.ReAd latest chapters at n0v(e)lbin.co/m Only

Tap tap tap tap tap tap-!

All were deflected with the palm, leaving Go Nam-cheol with the same incredulous expression as before.

To Ryu Min, this wasnt surprising at all.

Bullet dodging is a piece of cake with Agility at 300.

With agility at 300, dodging bullets was feasible.

With the rune of foresight, blocking such swift attacks was not difficult.

Mentally he looks already crashed, might as well finish this.

After deflecting the second attempt, Go Nam-cheol no longer chalked it up to coincidence.

As if stamped with defeat he meaninglessly swung his sword.

Crack-!

Kek!

Dodging the sword and delivering a body blow, the sound of ribs breaking was heard.

But the pain was momentary.

[The duel has ended. You win.]

[Nickname Busan Warrior has lost, thus initiating the correction of dialect and recognition as a commander.]

As soon as the message appeared, it was as if time rewound, and the pain vanished. The broken ribs were back in place as if nothing had happened. Though the wounds healed, the mental scars did not.

Feeling a profound difference in their capabilities, Go Nam-cheol hung his head in defeat.

I lost. As promised, Ill recognize you as the commander and correct my dialect.

Good. I appreciate your acknowledgment.

Ryu Min let out a smile, turning to the other squad members. All of them had their mouths agape, still processing the duel they had witnessed.

Did I just see that right? He deflected all attacks with his hand?

Insane. Is this the might of the Black Scythe weve heard about?

How could he not have a single scratch on him?

He didnt even wear any items and fought barehanded, and hes this powerful?

Since I won the duels, you all recognize me as the Black Scythe, right? I suppose this proves my qualification as a commander?

Yes

Although they acknowledged him, he still dampened their spirits and earned their resentment in the process.

But it was too early for resentment.

Now everyone, sit and listen to what I have to say. Starting with Go Nam-cheol.

Me?

Movement, judgment, momentum, everything is good, but your skill utilization is lacking. Blade Masters skills arent meant to be used that way. You applied Sword Qi and Swift Blade buffs before using Blade Dance, but those buffs dont affect the skill. It only causes a delay in executing the skill. So, you shouldve used Blade Dance first, or applied the buffs and waited for the right timing to use the skill. Personally, I recommend changing your attack pattern to the latter. Using Blade Dance when retrieving the sword helps reduce delay.

Next, Hwang Man-gi. As a Gladiator, your movements are good, but you rely too much on rage skills and neglect defense. Lowering your weapon below your chest during combat is like asking to be killed or surrendering. Its not just carelessness; its a habit that needs changing.

Then, Kang Si-hyuk. In terms of skill utilization, judgment, and combat sense, youre superior among the squad members. You mix skills with fakes well. However, you give up too easily after gauging the opponents strength. I understand, but I wish youd show more perseverance at least until youve tried. Thats regrettable.

Ah Thank you. I will correct it.

Kang Si-hyuk responded sincerely.

Meanwhile, the squad members were all stunned.

He knew our names and jobs without us telling him?

That wasnt the surprising part. It was expected for the commander to know his squad members.

What truly amazed them was something else.

He didnt duel just to assert dominance but to provide feedback?

Wasnt this all just to establish discipline?

No wonder he didnt finish us quickly

They hadnt expected the duels to carry such intentions. It felt like receiving an unexpected gift.

At the same time, the squad members perceptions shifted.

Until a moment ago, their eyes showed loss and resentment. Now, they looked at him with admiration and fondness.

They realized the man known as the Black Scythe wasnt just about brute strength.

This duel was to reflect on your shortcomings and learn Well, looking at your faces, it seems theres no need to worry. Shall we then move on to theory lessons?

Yes! Commander!

Please teach us!

Ryu Min grinned.

The squad members, now full of spirit unlike before, were ready to learn.
