My Reflector Is Invincible 35

35. Let’s fight once

The training ground where the knights of the Edmer family were sweating.

The knights there started to rumble loudly from the morning.

“The former Duke trained here?”

“And he trained with [him]?”

The great King of Knights was using their training ground.

No matter how much they were knights of the Edmer family, their hearts pounded with anticipation.

The Knight King was an object of respect and a symbol of admiration for knights.

That was true for any knight on the continent.

There were many who would have paid a fortune just to see his sword, which he had used to fight the Demon King, up close.

However, there was no time to stand around.

“Quickly, clean up the training ground first!”

“There shouldn’t be a speck of dust!”

“Do not show an unsightly appearance to the former Duke!”

Even amidst all of that, the knights’ eyes darted around without rest.

“That’s him, isn’t it…”

“The one that the Knight King has chosen as his successor?”

“He doesn’t look that strong…”

It was none other than Joo-in.

Not only had the Knight King chosen him as his successor, but he was also personally training him, so all eyes were on him.

In fact, it was only natural that he would be anticipated.

Rumors about Joo-in were rampant right now.

There were rumors that he had defeated a demon tribe, rumors that he was a hero, and even rumors that the Knight King had been deceived by Joo-in.

“Even so, he’s still a slave.”

From Noble mtl dot com

“He must have just delivered the final blow to something that the Knight King had already weakened.”

“Of course he would clean it up, since he received the succession. Even I would have done that much if I had received the succession…”

In particular, there were those who sent him looks of distrust and murderous intent.

They were the Knights of Obedience.

The eyes of those who had lost their lord due to the Duke’s retirement were blazing with murderous intent.

“Because of that bastard, the Duke…”

“The former Duke must have been deceived. How could he possibly pass on the succession to that guy instead of his own son, the Duke…”

Of course, they couldn’t say it out loud.

The Knight King’s personal knights, the 100 knights, were watching them with sharp eyes.

Even though they were under the same duke, the positions of the two groups were incomparable.

Seniors and teachers.

They were once vassals of a family that had fought alongside the former Duke against the demon tribes.

There was no one here who was brave enough to speak carelessly while they were watching.

At that moment, Joo-in moved.

“The atmosphere is good.”

He welcomed the gazes that were filled with more distrust than admiration.

The Knight King frowned slightly.

He must have been displeased by the disgrace that his knights were showing.

And although Joo-in had indeed received his succession, he must have still been lacking in many ways.

“Why don’t you go to the individual training ground right now?”

“I can’t do that.”

He had requested the public training ground on purpose.

As for Joo-in, he wanted to change those gazes.

‘When that gaze turns into admiration, that’s when I’ll obtain my own knight.’

The more difficult it was, the more motivated Joo-yeon became.

Overcoming extremely difficult situations was practically his forte.

In fact, the situation right now wasn’t even difficult.

‘I have more than a few cards up my sleeve.’

The Demon King’s exclusive skill, <Reflection>.

The legendary skill, <Crisis Perception>.

The Knight King’s recognition and succession.

And the support of the Edmer family’s direct successor.

Even with all that, I can’t conquer the dukedom?

That would mean I don’t even qualify to face the Demon King.

I need to resolve this minor issue quickly and move on.

“So, what do I do now?”

“The potential that I passed on to you only raised your limits. Right now, your potential is probably as low as it can be.”

It was true.

After the succession ended, Joo-yeon’s potential returned to its original state.

And it wasn’t even as if he had received all of the potential.

That was why the Knight King had summoned Joo-yeon to the training grounds.

He didn’t plan on making him do boring exercises.

“Potential increases the more you use it.”

“So… you want to fight?”

“Correct.”

Joo-yeon tilted his head slightly.

“You know that I have to fight directly to increase my potential, right?”

“Of course. That’s why you can’t use that ‘power’ during training.”

Joo-yeon laughed in disbelief.

“You’re not just saying that because you don’t want to get hurt, are you?”

Fighting without <Reflection>.

All he received was potential, and he hadn’t yet been taught any combat techniques.

‘Plus, I don’t even have a job yet.’

Without a job, he couldn’t learn any unique or job-specific skills.

It meant that his combat abilities would be severely lacking.

On the other hand, the Knight King was a knight-type job with a 1st place victory rate in the Grand Tournament.

He had started as a knight, then became a higher-ranking shield knight, and then a shield knight’s highest rank, guardian knight, before finally becoming the exclusive job, Knight King.

He was the very pinnacle of combat.

“I never realized that the Knight King had a hobby of bullying the weak.”

With this much of a gap, it didn’t seem like he would win even if he had received the full succession.

In the end, it would just be an easy fight like beating up a child.

However, that didn’t mean there was no way.

As if he had been waiting, the Knight King spoke.

“In that case, how about receiving a knight’s investiture from me?”

“……!”

<Knight’s Investiture>

I swear to choose someone to serve as my lord.

In a word, it meant becoming a knight.

Then you could receive the effects attached to the faction you belonged to along with the knight profession.

‘I’ll become a knight.’

Once I change my profession, I can learn all the related system techniques.

A knight was the most popular profession among combat professions.

Physical ability was also good, and the techniques specialized in combat gave an incomparable fighting power among any close-range combat professions.

Hwayong Jonjeong was a <Knight’s Code>.

<You will have additional special powers from the moment you learn the <Knight’s Code>>

<You can generally choose from strength, speed, wide-area buffs, and command specialization>

<You can only have one Knight’s Code>

It was a knight’s ability to exert similar power to other professions.

There were also knights who exerted power like the mystery of a magician or buffer.

It was truly the all-purpose profession of the ‘Valentino Saga.’

‘If you become the king of knights, you can use various abilities with just one Knight’s Code.’

Right now, I could hardly use the Knight’s Code because of the devil’s curse.

However, if the king of knights put his heart into it, he could face the devil alone, even for a short time.

Except for the hero, it was almost the only profession that could fight the devil alone.

If you receive a knight’s investiture from the king of knights, you can become strong quickly.

There was a high possibility that you would soon obtain the final knight profession.

‘If you look at it that way, the knight’s investiture isn’t bad.’

Can you obtain the profession of the king of knights and related powers in a short period of time?

In the past, it would never have been easy to give up.

However, Jooyeon shook his head lightly.

‘For me now, the [King of Knights] profession has too many limitations.’

<Knight’s Code> was like that in the first place.

It wasn’t a power given simply because you desired it.

<17 Commandments of a Knight>

Only those who fully遵守 and follow it could obtain the <Knight’s Code>.

Like the knights of obedience.

<You shall obey just authority>

Like the knights of truth.

<Always tell the truth>

Like the knights of no retreat.

<Never turn your back on the enemy>

Only a faithful knight who protects the weak, such as women, children, and the elderly, and fulfills his duties can obtain the <Knight’s Code>.

What happens if you obtain the Knight’s Code but don’t follow the rules properly?

“Do I even need to ask?

I’d lose my power right away.

‘And I’d never be able to become a knight again.’

I couldn’t just throw away my job as a knight.

No matter how strong I get, I don’t want to get a power with such strong restrictions.

That’s not the only downside either.

‘To become the Knight King, I have to complete a continent-wide long-term quest.’

Knights are the guardians of faith.

To become their king, the [Knight King], I’d have to prove my unwavering faith.

It would require me to travel all over the continent, completing quests for the weak.

Even if it was shortened, it wouldn’t be much different.

It’d be just like the Hero.

The main character wanted to avoid that more than anything.

‘That’s such a huge grind. I only did it because it was a game. I’d never want to do it in real life.’

That’s why the main character wanted a different job.

‘I’ll get a better job than the Knight King… no, the best job in the world.’

There were a few jobs that previous players had raved about.

Unique jobs like the companions of the previous Hero, of which there was only one.

The main character had already experienced all of those jobs.

‘They each have their own advantages.’

For example, the Hero could learn job skills from every class, and the Saint could receive or bestow the blessings of multiple gods.

The Elf Elder combined two jobs with the blessing of the World Tree, transcending their limits, and the Barbarian Chieftain summoned the spirits of their ancestors to use special powers.

The Master Thief could steal items and used all sorts of hidden weapons along with shadow techniques.

The Death Knight gained perfect stealth along with passive skills related to instant death.

‘They’re all special jobs. They’re the best jobs that were designed to fight the Demon King.’

But even they weren’t as good as the job the main character wanted to get now.

A fantasy job that no one had ever gotten.

‘No one’s gotten it yet, but… this time will be different.’

There was definitely a job that he should have gotten, but didn’t, even though he had met all the requirements.

It might be possible now that this wasn’t a game, but reality.

This was a test for that.

‘If only the knights of <Obedience> could change masters… I’d definitely be able to get that job then.’

The Knight King nodded, as if he understood what the main character was thinking.

“Hmm. So you want to become a Hero after all.”

It was true that the [Knight King] was strong, but he couldn’t compare to the [Hero].

“Yeah. I like the Hero.”

No, not the Hero.

The main character was taken aback, but the Knight King looked at him, satisfied.

‘He certainly has the talent for it.’

You didn’t necessarily need to have a job to pass on battle skills.

Indeed, the Sword King clearly remembered the fight between Jooin and the Demons.

‘That Earth Split was definitely my technique.’

Jooin followed suit. It should be possible then.

Of course, it wasn’t perfect.

It felt as if he was forcibly using a technique that wasn’t suited for his body.

He knew it in theory, but his body wasn’t able to apply it.

Because of that, he felt a bit greedy and regretful.

Because if it were him, he would have been able to adjust it all.

That’s why he rather wanted to reconsider it through this training.

“If you become a knight, you will be able to make the knights here look up to you as an amazing knight.”

The Sword King drew his sword.

Jooin also drew his sword and chuckled.

“I can make them look up to me without doing that.”

“You’re quite spirited.”

“Then let’s begin.”

The knights’ gazes gathered.
