I want to be of help to Teacher.

The desire to be recognized that every child has.

It started as just that much.

Especially after losing her parents, her distorted affection gave birth to excessive obsession.

And the target of that obsession was none other than the girl’s teacher.

The person who taught her so many things.

She wanted to be of help to Teacher using what she learned from Teacher.

That was all she thought about.

If the girl had been ordinary, that desire would have been satisfied in her own way.

Even if she had potential, the strength of a mere child wasn’t that powerful.

However, the girl was different.

She had overwhelming talent that could be called heaven’s favoritism.

The talent to understand the incomprehensible and somehow manifest it was the problem.

Thunder Dragon Sword Technique, First Sword: Thunder Dragon Fang

Like a bolt of lightning, Helia’s sword, which kicked off the ground at a tremendous speed, instantly sliced off the doppelganger’s leg.

Although she couldn’t cut it off perfectly,

She succeeded in suppressing the doppelganger’s movements to some extent.

And they weren’t the type to just stand by and watch.

They were the Royal Knights.

Although they were now in a state of a toothless tiger, they were the strongest knights who once belonged to the continent’s strongest knight order.

The first to charge in was Bayard.

Her body, which charged in with a fierce momentum, tore off the doppelganger’s flesh and took its bones.

Although it was called a blood demon, the doppelganger’s combat ability wasn’t that great.

); }

It couldn’t withstand Bayard’s overwhelming violence. But it couldn’t flee either.

Arrows that flew from behind pierced the doppelganger’s tentacles into the wall and floor like stakes.

“Now’s the time! You mineral!”

“I’m not just some ore!”

Ruby, who leaped with vigor, swung her hammer down as it was.

Like hammering a nail, the deeply embedded arrow greatly restricted the doppelganger’s movements.

It was a perfect combination play.

The girl didn’t miss a single bit of that sight.

At first, she couldn’t acknowledge it.

She didn’t want to acknowledge it.

The fact that there were people more outstanding than her.

Above me, there is only Teacher.

Everyone else is beneath me.

That was what she had thought.

However, that arrogance was shattered to pieces as time passed.

Certainly, the girl had talent.

If she grew smoothly like this, she would be able to become a regular member.

But in other words, that meant she wasn’t even at the level of a regular member yet.

Even Clara and Ruby, the lowest-ranking members, would never kneel in terms of individual skills.

In fact, Helia had recorded more defeats when sparring with Clara and Ruby.

The gap that couldn’t be narrowed with just talent.

It clearly existed between them and her.

Well, if it weren’t like that, they wouldn’t have been able to even step on the threshold of the Royal Knights.

Moreover, the strength of Bayard and Cluna, and of course, Yuren, the former commander, was beyond imagination.

“We subdued it without much difficulty.”

“Everyone, great work~ Clara, Ruby, Helia, Bayard. You all did very, very well!”

“…Thank you.”

I have no choice but to acknowledge what I must.

Because I’m weak as hell right now.

Even with the strength Teacher taught me, this is all I can do.

Then what should I do?

It’s simple.

Become stronger.

Much stronger than now.

So that I can be recognized by Teacher later.

???????

The 10,000-hour rule or the 10,000-repetition rule.

It’s a rule that says no matter what you do, if you invest consistently, you can become an expert.

I thought 10,000 hours might be difficult, but 10,000 repetitions was something anyone could do.

But that wasn’t the case.

I couldn’t even properly reach a thousand repetitions.

I forcibly lifted my body, which felt like it would collapse at any moment due to lack of strength.

Severe dizziness came up, and my vision shook greatly.

How many times did I stab it?

I don’t even remember.

But it definitely wasn’t 10,000 times.

I lost count around 300 times.

Anyway, thanks to continuously stabbing and digging, I was barely able to deal with that demon.

The body of the monster, whose heart had been pierced, slowly began to collapse.

Eventually, it turned into a liquid and completely spilled onto the floor.

It’s dead, right?

It won’t come back to life, will it?

If it comes back to life, that’s really the end.

Putting aside the fact that my stamina has turned into a rag, the time stop cooldown was still ticking.

I couldn’t use it again.

“It seems to have completely vanished.”

“Thank you. Thanks to you, I’m saved.”

“Don’t let your guard down. It’s not over yet.”

“As expected of the Commander. Not letting your guard down until the end.”

Well, I didn’t have the luxury to let my guard down.

I was not as strong as Yuren or Bayard.

In the first place, even if I were strong, I couldn’t afford to let my guard down.

Not in this situation.

Moreover, I was worried about the safety of the members who followed that doppelganger chief.

If by any chance it disguised itself as me and aimed for an opening, they could suffer a fatal wound.

Of course, they weren’t pushovers.

As the Royal Knights, they wouldn’t be easily defeated.

But there was always the possibility of the unexpected.

A cornered rat will bite the cat, as they say.

At first, that was what I thought.

Until I directly saw the doppelganger being dragged in by the members, subdued.

No, is it okay to subdue it that easily?

Of course, the real one was the one I faced.

I silently watched the scene in front of my eyes.

The doppelganger that had fled while spouting incomprehensible noises had somehow returned to the appearance of Rain Emerald.

Moreover, even its arms were properly restrained, and it couldn’t even escape.

Since Yuren and Cluna were there.

I had expected it, but seeing it directly made me feel a bit…

No, well. It was not like I suffered alone.

Still, it was the final boss that almost swallowed up the Dwarf Republic.

It was absolutely, absolutely not because I suffered alone.

“Good work, everyone.”

“This much is nothing.”

“It was a bit troublesome, but it was a good educational experience.”

“Ugh…”

“I feel like I’m dying…”

“I-Is everyone okay?”

Each of them had various reactions.

Yuren and Cluna had composed expressions, and Bayard was even worried about others.

On the other hand, Clara and Ruby had tired expressions.

“Teacher, you really worked hard.”

“You also worked very hard. Well done.”

“Thank you, Teacher.”

I stretched out my hand and patted Helia’s head.

Her surprised expression at my touch was only momentary.

Helia felt my touch deeply, her face slightly flushed.

I thought it might cause strange misunderstandings again if I stayed longer.

So I stopped there and withdrew my hand.

Helia showed a disappointed expression but didn’t throw a tantrum.

Viral stood silently in the square.

In front of him, the divine sword stood firm.

After gazing at it for a moment, Viral stood up and spoke.

“What happened to her?”

“I ate her. To disguise myself properly.”

“I see.”

Smack!

Without even blinking, Ambassador Viral swung his fist.

Although her head turned greatly, Rain Emerald, no, the doppelganger, turned her jaw back as if nothing happened.

“If I had my way, I’d like to slowly torture you. But that’s why you have such a dangerous ability.”

“…If you guarantee my life, I might cooperate.”

“I refuse. Rather than the information you possess, killing you definitively here has far more merit.”

Ambassador Viral had the same thoughts as me.

Rather than keeping her alive to obtain information, it was best to kill her definitively to avoid future troubles.

I nodded.

Then, Yuren drew her sword and sliced the doppelganger’s neck like an arrow.

The beheaded doppelganger spilled onto the floor like the one I had seen earlier.

Realizing that it was definitely dead, I finally let out a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, Ambassador Viral, who had been staring at it intently, turned his head and walked toward the divine sword.

“Perhaps, we were under a misapprehension.”

“A misapprehension?”

“Intoxicated by past glory, we failed to see the future, the present.”

“…”

Hmm, I see.

I have no idea what he’s talking about.

But I can tell he realized something.

Wait a minute, then could it be that he’s going to give me the divine sword, a remnant of the past, or something?

I got slightly excited.

And that reached its peak when Ambassador Viral pulled out the divine sword.

However, what followed exceeded my imagination by far.

I blankly watched the scene.

The divine sword, pulled out by Ambassador Viral’s hand, slowly turned to dust from its tip and disappeared with the wind.

Huh?

What the hell?

“No matter how much a weapon is called a divine sword, it cannot overcome the passage of time.”

“That’s right. But no matter what we did, we couldn’t create a sword exactly like this.”

“So, you left behind at least its appearance?”

“Yes, that’s right. And that specious reputation blinded even our eyes. This is the result.”

Eventually, the divine sword completely vanished, even the handle.

In other words, to put it simply, it was like this.

Since it seemed impossible to recreate the divine sword made by their ancestors in the past, they simply preserved it and praised it.

Naturally, as time passed, no one tried to surpass the divine sword.

Instead, only the pride of having created the divine sword remained.

And the doppelganger exploited that gap.

If the spirit of craftsmanship had been properly instilled, they wouldn’t have been swayed to this extent.

Ambassador Viral smiled bitterly and opened his mouth.

“What’s important is not the remnants of the past, but moving forward.”

“…”

“You all don’t need this fake divine sword, do you?”

What the fuck are you saying?

Hurry up and give me the divine sword!!!!
