Not A Hero

Not A Hero
Eps. 15 - Gravel


A week had passed since Loyd began teaching Escal about the Swing technique, and became his teacher in the morning until lunch time.


Thanks to his high understanding and also arguably genius, now his Job rose to become a Knight. A Job that was higher level than a Swordsman, level below a Sword Master.


He had also become a Level 15 Human who was the peak of a lowly human, before becoming a High Human and lastly was a Demi God.


“Today get here first. But, you really are the genius of Escal! Rare talent, hahaha!”


Loyd no longer speaks formally to Escal, who is now a student. But he was really amazed by Escal's rapid development.


It was really easy to teach, and could immediately practice the movement he had just seen for the first time.


Escal bowed slightly in honor of Loyd's teaching.


“You are overrated, Guru.”


His expression and tone did not change at all, but Escal was more polite and respectful because Loyd was willing to teach him.


He was like that a long time ago. Not a person of high status and a parent he respects. But the one who taught him a valuable lesson, and was willing to respect others, then Escal would also respect himself.


Escal's principle is to treat others as they are treated.


It was just that if the treatment was bad, he would be even worse since revenge should be even more cruel.


“Then I will return first! There's an investigation I have to do.” Loyd waved his hand as he walked away.


Even Escal had no desire to hold it in, he just lowered his head and nodded in response even though Loyd did not see it.


The system screen displaying his status appeared suddenly in front of Escal, as he did intend to check it out.

“It will be more difficult to level up after this. But I think, this is already good enough for people who have only been here less than two weeks.”


Escal closed the screen of the system in front of him, after feeling there was nothing he could do.


If only someone had heard his words that were like a lack of gratitude, that person would have vomited blood from anger. Become a Human Level 15 in less than two weeks. It was not just a genius anymore, but it was already like a Monster.


He even had a huge mana capacity and could fight enemies that roughly had a difference of over 2 Levels above him.


But it is likely that its development will not be as fast as before, because starting from the High Human Evolution will take more time as well as difficulty.


Unless he really continued to impose his limits and fight against a truly powerful enemy, Escal's development would slow down.


Looking at Liliane who was swinging a wooden sword until sweating profusely, Escal sheathed the sword he had been carrying and picked up a stone.


More precisely a pebble that is quite large, and raises it a little high.


"Gush!"


Without any warning, Escal threw the pebble with a quarter of his strength at Liliane.


"Well!"


Whether by luck or sharp instinct, Liliane managed to fend off the pebble throw with considerable force despite being slightly pushed back with her wooden sword blade like a shallow hole.


Escal raised one eyebrow. Sometimes he does this, of course suddenly to give a surprise attack.


Not intended to deliberately hurt Liliane, but Escal just wanted to train his instincts and vigilance so as not to be careless anywhere.


You could say this is the eighteenth time, after several previous throws that can not be fielded so sometimes Liliane hurt. Scuff, or bruise.


Fortunately Escal was not such a heartless person, torturing 'subordinates' or his own followers.


Escal will definitely treat it, or provide a low quality Health Potion to speed up recovery so that it only takes a few hours the wound is gone without a trace.


As a result of changing the direction of the Sword that was swinging vigorously, Liliane felt her hands ache a little. Especially when fending off a pebble that is only as big as a marble.


“You did well, Liliane.”


Escal praised sincerely, walking closer to where Liliane had lowered her sword.


“Thank you, Mister!”


Liliane seemed excited when she heard Escal praise her, it got better when Escal gently stroked her head.


Although simple, according to Liliane it is the best gift he can get on the side of Escal. It was really a simple thought of a child.


“If I could see his status. It is a pity that I do not have an Appraisal Skill.”


Escal involuntarily sighed, making Liliane slightly tilt her head in astonishment.


“Is there something, Mister?”
