“I like the tenacity and spirit used to develop the sword dances so far when it was just a means of directing the ritual.”

“Did you recognize the identity of my swordsmanship?”

Grid used Open Potential in the first trial and showed his five fusion sword dance. However, none of the yangbans recognized the identity of the sword dance. It was natural. Grid’s sword dance might be based on Pagma’s Swordsmanship, but it had too many changes and developments. Unlike Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Grid’s sword dance maximized actions and power, so it took a different form that was much more combat efficient.

Of course, some common points remained, but Pagma’s Swordsmanship remembered by the yangbans was just a single sword dance. It was virtually impossible to find common characteristics between the two sword dances. However, it was different for Chiyou.

Jingle.

“The fusion sword dances are what I presented to Pagma so I have to recognize it.”

“......!”

“However, Pagma didn’t struggle. He overlooked the need for force. Experience the results.”

The black and white world was overlaid with all types of colors. The blue sky, clear river water, and autumn leaves beside the river gained a picturesque harmony. Was the world so beautiful? Grid was admiring it when he woke up from his thoughts.

“...Pagma!”

Time started again and peace ended. Garam’s sword was just about to reach Grid’s heart. Grid had drawn simulations in his mind several times and quickly activated the White Tiger’s Breath.

[The protection of the White Tiger safeguards you.]

[Once attacked, fatal damage can be avoided a minimum of one time and a maximum of three times. The target who attacked you will also be repelled.]

[Health and stamina are slightly restored.]

A silver-white energy surrounded Grid’s body as he blocked Garam’s sword. Garam’s sword shook. It was unable to withstand the repulsion and soared into the air.

‘Now!’

Grid tilted his upper body and pushed Garam’s chest with his shoulders. It was intended to drop Garam into the river. He was determined to stun all the fish and Garam in the huge river using the Blue Dragon’s Breath. However, Garam didn’t step back. Despite his imperfect posture, he endured Grid’s push and grabbed Grid’s neck in reverse.

“A man with no ability is hoping for good luck. Reading the narratives written by human beings in order to understand humans. Becoming a potter in order to help humans. Wanting to become a priest to become a bridgehead between the gods and humans... what power do you have when you use all types of excuses to neglect training?”

“Keok...! Cough cough!”

It was physically impossible to crush Garam with Pagma’s body when Garam’s level and stats were clearly much higher. It happened as Garam was staring at Grid, who couldn’t breathe after being grabbed by the neck... Blue Tiger, who had been trembling with fear the moment Garam appeared, rushed forward with her eyes closed. Although she was still small, she had sharp fangs and she bit hard on Garam’s calf.

Garam just scoffed. “Bah, you are a good pair.”

Grid’s neck was gripped tighter and he gradually lost consciousness.

***

Garong... garoong...

Garam once said that Pagma was the shame of the Hwan Kingdom. Based on his many comments, Grid was able to discover that Pagma was isolated in the Hwan Kingdom. However, he didn’t expect it to be this much.

“......”

Grid was suffocated and fainted. By the time he opened his eyes again, he was in a large iron cage. There was something heavy. He looked back and found the blue tiger hanging from his forearm. She was looking over here with eyes so wet that it wouldn’t be strange if she shed tears straight away. The moment she met his gaze, she licked his cheek with her tongue.

“I spared your life. Even so, you have a long life because you are a yangban.” There was ridiculing laughter from outside the iron cage. It was Garam.The man pulled over a chair covered with tiger skin and sat there laughing. “I’m glad you didn’t die. I was in trouble because I thought it would be boring if you died too easily.”
