Chapter 6 Strongest, Winning Against His Father


Right before my father Castor is going to block my sword, I concentrate the Physical Reinforcement on my legs and stepped in diagonally in low posture .


Castor"s sword pa.s.sed over my head .


I"m short because I"m 6 right now . Opponent that"s too short are unexpectedly hard to hit .


And then I stab my sword toward his knee while making use of the momentum .


Compared to slashing, thrusting is hard to block and deal with sheer strength . All the better if the opponent let their guard down .


However-- .


"Hmph!"


My father Castor blocked my stab .


I thought this could possibly end the the match, but apparently, my father Castor didn"t let his guard down that much .


However, that"s also within my expectation .


I activate 【Ground Shrinkage】 without stopping my momentum . I sneaked right behind my father .


"Mu . . . He"s gone!?"


My father lost sight of me .


【Ground Shrinkage】 is actually not a magic that lets you move behind your opponent in an instant .


It creates a blind spot on the opponent"s awareness which you use to slip past them, it"s essentially a magic that lets you slip through the opponent"s awareness for only an instant . That"s the 【Ground Shrinkage】。


This would have used 10 times the amount of magic power if it was with the First Crest, as expected of the Fourth Crest . The magic was invoked perfectly .


It seems being a crest that specializes in close quarter combats isn"t just for show .


Even though I knew about it already, actually using one in person made me realize its strength all the more .


I think this had already surpa.s.sed the past me before my first 100 years back then . I"m already convinced that reincarnating was the right thing to do with only this much .


However, I don"t have time to bask in emotion . 【Ground Shrinkage】 could only buy me an instant .


I stab again with my sword again as fast as I can .

The perfect timing . And a trajectory that"s hard to block by human anatomy .


Even in my past life there"s not many who could block an attack from their perfect blind spot like this without magic .


However, my father Castor blocked it .


I wonder if the practice swinging he did before I came here was just a warm-up .


But even my father couldn"t take this attack from the impossible posture he was on .


As I"m confronting him with the power produced by the Physical Reinforcement riding on my full body weight, I can tell that much from the sword .


I could finally compete with him in power even with all the differences .


Both swords have stopped moving . Neither moving forward nor backward .


That probably only lasted around 0 . 2 seconds . However, that felt like a long time for me . It must be the same for my father Castor too .


Afterward, my father began to move . His power trasmitted on my sword is increasing as he"s twisting his body .


If this keeps up, my sword will probably get pushed away in half a second, resulting in my lost .


With the difference in our physiques, I would have no chance of winning if he retakes his posture, rather you can say that I"ve fought well .


However, I have no intention of just accepting this fight heading toward such an ending .


My style is to aim for victory by using all of my power even in a mock battle . I"d rather make a bet than quietly accepting my lost .


I construct the next magic in the little time I have .


【Magic Strike】 . A magic that loads the sword with magic power to increase its strength .


It"s far more powerful than the Physical Reinforcement magic, but of course, its degree of difficulty also jumps up several magnitudes .


I used 【Ground Shrinkage】 to ensure my victory, but even Fourth Crest has its limit . It all depends on luck now .


And I--won the bet .


The invoked 【Magic Strike】 granted power to my sword, overcoming my father"s sword .


And then right after my sword hit my father, the 【Magic Strike】 lost its effect, and I fell down as I lost my balance .


My older brother Reich and my father Castor mutter in amazement .


"He won against father . . . . ?"


"I had a feeling he might be talented in sword, to think he was a monster . . . . "


Looks like they got surprised .


I feel that my father was going at it lightly .


He probably never thought that he would lose when I hadn"t even done any training .


However, this match had a big problem regarding its rule .


"I only took father by surprises, and even the attack just now merely hit you right?"


The rule of the mock battle earlier was [Win if I make a hit] . Therefore, my victory is only in form .


However, if this was a real combat, my attack would only slightly injure father . Even that might not be possible if he wore an armor .


Moreover, my father was holding back at the first strike which greatly influenced the result of this battle . I only made use of that .


I pointed that out in that sense .


"No well . That"s true and all, but what was that attack just now? On top of making me lose sight of you, you clearly showed an unbelievable power and speed didn"t you?"


"Un? I was just using Physical Reinforcement, 【Ground Shrinkage】 and 【Magic Strike】 normally . . . . "


""That"s not normal!""


Why did I get retorted . They got greatly in sync .


Ah . 【Magic Strike】 might have been too early indeed .


"I"m sorry . It wasn"t normal . I just got the 【Magic Strike】 right by chance . "


"That"s not the problem here though . . . . "


This time he puts on an astonished look . Just what did I do anyway .


"First, are those Physical Reinforcement, 【Ground Shrinkage】 and 【Magic Strike】 magic?"


"Un . "


"How were Mathi able to use them?"


" . . . . I practiced?"


"No, that reasoning is weird . "


Why!?


How can anyone use magic without practicing .


Or perhaps you need permissions to use magic in this world?


"Anyone can do this much so long they practice . . . "


"Okay! I understand that you have a strange idea!"


"What on earth my nine years of sword training for . . . . "


My father replied with an astounded look at my reply .


My brother Reich muttered something while holding his heads, but I couldn"t make out what he said .


"I"ll teach you this thing called common sense . "


"Common sense?"


I wonder if it"s a common sense in this country to regulate magic .


Come to think of it, Physical Reinforcement was used everywhere in my past life, but I haven"t seen it being used even once after reincarnating .


"Yeah . Common sense about swordsmanship that is . . . . I"m not gonna be the one teaching you though . "


"Un?"


My father looked at the entrance of our house while saying that .


Looks like Biffgel just came out of the house .


"Oy Biffgel! You"re late!"


"Nothing wrong with getting late a bit! I have my circ.u.mstances!"


Un . This guy"s no good like always .


I don"t think there"s anything this guy can teach me .


"Shut up! You"d have been punished if you were in military! Originally I was gonna impose a harsh training on you today . . . . But today"s your lucky day . "


Father exchanged looks at me while saying that .


His face looked like he"s plotting something bad .


"2000 push up or a mock battle with Mathi . Pick one . "


"A mock battle with Mathias!"


Biffgel replied father with smiles on his whole face .


Looks like he"s very happy to have a mock battle with me .
