The Marquis Is a Master of Martial Arts

“I don’t know.”

Eventually, when I gave in to my heart and tried to pull the blanket over myself, I saw Arin’s eyes. She was still looking at me with no expression.

She didn’t seem to care if I went back to sleep or woke up. I got a little heated at the sight of it.

I wanted to break that icy expression.

“Hey! Ugh!”

So I kicked off the blanket and got up. The sudden movement made me feel the pain all over my body again.

Arin’s still expression was broken through the blanket that came down in the air.

“Arin, bring some rice!”

“yes.”

Arin brought water to the table in the middle and went out again.

hmm? just now. There seemed to be a change in Arin’s information window from the Creator’s eyes.

Arin left so quickly that it was not confirmed.

“Whew…”

As the saying goes, well begun is half done, the first is the hardest. There is a word called inertia. Since I woke up today, I will be able to get up and exercise tomorrow too.

“Is this again?”

“Yes. If you want to lose weight, you should continue to eat chilein soup. The more you eat this soup and the more you exercise, the more effective it is.”

“Ugh…”

After eating the chilein soup Arin brought, I immediately set out on the road to the 4th gymnasium.

“urg!”

“Ugh!”

“evil!”

When I started walking, the muscle pain got worse. As if Yuren’s body had never experienced pain before, the pain felt greater than my original body.

Arin was moving more slowly than yesterday, perhaps because he was taking care of me with severe muscle pain or because he heard my moaning. I really appreciated her caring.

Looking at Arin’s back, I remembered that there was a change in Arin’s status window earlier. I narrowed my eyes at the thought of seeing it.

Sichuan Tangga

[Name: Arin]

[Features: Quick Sword lv2, Bright Landscapes Lv1, Aura Adaptation lv1]

[Likeability: 2 (Interest) ]

There was a slight change in Arin’s liking. Until yesterday, the favorability rating, which was obviously neutral at 0, rose to 2 and turned into interest.

I thought I had to give it as a gift like a game, but it seems like I can easily raise my liking with a change in my behavior.

At first, I ignored it because I thought it was unrealistic, but likability is a fraudulent ability to know what kind of feelings the person approaching you has.

“We have arrived. This is the 4th gymnasium.”

The 4th Gymnasium was as far as Arin said, but it wasn’t that small, and it had all the equipment I needed.

“hmm.”

I grabbed a wooden sword from the training weapon warehouse at the entrance of the training center.

“As expected, nothing comes out.”

If my characteristic was a swordsman, I would have known how to move my sword even if I swung it roughly. However, the characteristic I had was the locked Sacheon Dangga, and it was difficult to wield it properly.

“Princess, the wooden swords there are all for knights’ training, so they’re a bit heavy because they have an iron core inside.”

“Hey, a little bit?”

Contrary to Arin’s words, it wasn’t a little bit. The wooden sword felt as heavy as a 5kg dumbbell in my studio, but Yuren’s glass body couldn’t even withstand it.

“Wow, what a real trash body.”

“yes?”

“It’s hard to make a living.”

This time, I lifted the small dagger next to the wooden sword.

Also didn’t see anything. I don’t know what to do to make Sacheondangga open.

Frustrated, I threw the dagger at a nearby tree, but it fell without even going near it.

“Ehh, let’s do some power walking.”

Power walking is so excellent that its exercise effect is comparable to running. It was the best exercise for me who can’t run.

“profit!”

I started to walk slowly, accepting the screams of muscle pain emanating from my legs.

On a dark night when the sun had already set, the Marquis of Willington was looking down at the darkened garden from her office.

But his eyes were not chasing the flowers that adorned the garden, but the two men and women in the garden.

“Today is later than yesterday.”

After checking the position of the moon, he looked at the two men and women, Yuren and Arin, who were passing through the garden again.

Perhaps because he had been training, his entire body was drenched in sweat and he was staggering.

Yuren, who thought he would give up after a few days in the third week, had been going to work at the 4th gymnasium for the third week without missing a single day.

Are you increasing your exercise time? I was leaving a little early and coming back a little late.

“Huh, it looks like he’s moving more as his stamina increases. Is that guy really Yuren?”

It’s only been 3 weeks, but the changes that Yuren has made during that time are beyond the Marquis of Willington’s imagination.

The fat belly, which had been undulating like waves, was no longer shaken, and the face that was buried in the flesh and could not be seen properly became a copy of the marquise’s own face.

“Looking at it this way, that guy is also my son.”

The flame of hope for Yuren, which was on the verge of extinction, grew very little over the past three weeks. For the first time, Willington had the confidence to trust Yuren.

smart!

A thin knock was heard outside. The marquis could tell who the person outside was just from the sound of the knock.

“Come in.”

The door opened and the person who came in immediately walked behind the Marquis and gently hugged him. The Marquis felt at ease at the neat scent that spread from her red hair.

“It’s dark and I can’t see anything. What are you looking at?”

“I just thought the garden was beautiful.”

Yuren and Arin entered the mansion before they knew it, so all they could see was a lonely garden with no one outside.

“Because I manage the garden myself.

“Really. A skill that leaves nothing but admiration.”

“Because the garden is the face of the family. Huhuhu”

“Thank you.”

“No. By the way, when are you going to proceed with the selection of Colin’s successor, which you mentioned earlier?

As she said that, she hugged the Marquis even tighter.

“I’m sorry, Kayna, but that might take a while.”

“Yes? We decided to select and announce Colin as the successor within this month.”

“As you’ve heard, doesn’t Yuren seem to have come to his senses? He’s the eldest son of Rocks. If he works hard from now on, he might be a good successor.”

“Whoops.”

Caina’s expression hardened for a moment, but the Marquis didn’t notice it because he was still looking at the garden. She smiled beautifully as if nothing had happened.

“That’s right. I heard the news of Yuren too. The servants also liked it, saying that I felt like I had become a completely different person. It’s really good. Huhu”

“I was so worried, but I think I’ve finally come to my senses a little bit. To think that I’ve come to my senses after being beaten by my fiancée, that guy is too.”

Up until now, when Yuren’s name came out of someone else’s mouth, it was a story that unconditionally pointed out his problem, but the praise for the first son that came out for the first time brought a big smile to the Marquis’ face.

“Hoho, now you’ll feel a little better. Then what will the heir do?”

“It’s only been three weeks since Yuren started training, so I guess we’ll have to wait a little longer.”

The Marquis felt sorry for Caina, but he said it without hesitation, as if he had already made up his mind.

“I promise you this one thing. If Yu-Ren becomes an idiot again, I will immediately give you and my first son, Colin, the heir position.”

“You will decide the successor in a proper way on your own. I believe in you. Whether it’s Yuren or Colin, whoever becomes the successor, the Rox family will run great.”

Caina was showing a smile that didn’t wrinkle at all, as if she really wanted Yuren to change.

“Thank you for your understanding. Kaina.”

“That’s natural. I’m really happy with Yuren’s change.”

“You are the only one after all.”

Caina was still showing a bright smile, and the Marquis, who saw her smile, couldn’t stand it and kissed her on the mouth.

“Huh, then I’ll be waiting for you in the bedroom. Please do your work properly and come quickly.”

“Ah, I’ll be right there.”

“Whoop whoop.”

Caina’s expression, which came out of the Marquis’s office with a smile, instantly turned cold as if it had been covered with ice. She was very beautiful as she muttered something with her red lips, but I felt an unknown eerie feeling.

“I’ve lost most of the visible weight now!”

As I went to the 4th gymnasium every single day for 4 weeks, a cartoon-like change occurred in my body.

I must have worked hard, but the effect of the chilein soup Arin brought every day was amazing.

I couldn’t deal with muscle pain, but even if I was exhausted, I could wake up feeling refreshed as if I had slept for 10 hours the next day if I ate chilein soup and went to sleep.

The biggest effect is to lose weight that is visible to the naked eye.

From noble mtl dot com

From the 2nd week, when I lost some body fat and gained some muscle, I started doing bare-body exercises such as push-ups and squats.

I was suffering from muscle pain every day, but I could see the changes in my body, so it was fun to exercise.

“But it sucks.”

However, the really important Sichuan Tang family was never liberated. Even though he kept throwing daggers and daggers and swinging his wooden sword hundreds of times, nothing ran.

“But there must be some way.”

It feels like finding a legendary weapon that you don’t even know where it is hidden in the game. However, there was no strategy video or even a hint from the developer. I had no choice but to find out on my own.

“Haa, it’s really frustrating.”

I have absolutely no idea what to do. Even if he had no talent, he thought that it might be better to learn the sword and search for opportunities.

“The Grand Duke”

“Come in. Uh…”

Before I could finish my words, Arin came in with a bowl of chilein soup. The smell of chilein soup suddenly made me feel sick to my stomach.

“ha…”

I admit that the soup effect is good. It had an effect that was incomparable to that of chicken breast, but since I ate only that for three meals a month, I felt like I was going to die.

“I brought you a meal.”

“Arin, how long do I have to eat that?”

“Are you bored?”

“Of course. You’ve been eating only that for a month now.”

Arin nodded and put the chile soup on the table.

“What do you want, Grand Duke?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Are you just wanting to lose weight? Do you want to get in shape to become a knight?”

“Of course I want a body to be a knight.”

I have no intention of becoming a knight.

“Then have soup. Even the strongest marquis in the territory eats chilein soup after training. It’s still a long way.”

“Ugh.”

“I don’t intend to force it. It’s up to the Archduke to make the decision.”

This is Arin’s peculiarity. She only observes and doesn’t say anything first. Even though he is learning excellent swordsmanship, he doesn’t interfere even when I wield a sword sloppily.

“If you say that, I have no choice but to eat…”

It was when he approached the table and was about to pick up the spoon.

“The Archduke.”

“huh?”

“If you become a knight, then why don’t you learn swordsmanship from now on?”

“uh?”

It was the first time Arin, who had always been in the position of an observer, presented something to me. Did you have a change of heart or did you open your heart a little?

“fence?”

“Actually, you are of a very late age, but the Archduke is a direct descendant of the Rox family, so you must have a talent for swords.”

I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I have no talent for swordsmanship at all. There is only Sacheondangga that is uselessly locked.

“Let’s start right away, even tomorrow. If you report it to the Marquis, he will assign you a good instructor.”

“It’s swordsmanship…”

“I’m sure you can.”

I was a little worried, but I thought I wasn’t there yet.

“No, that’s okay. First of all, let’s build up some more stamina.”

Even if I, the original novelist, learn swordsmanship with the body of Yuren, who has no talent, I will catch thieves, but it will not help me survive.

Sometimes the knights I met at the 4th gymnasium had a tremendous murderous intent against me. When I asked Arin, he said that when they were training knights, I bullied them.

Learn the sword with them? that would be no Even if he apologized now, if the favorability goes down, it will go down, but it doesn’t seem like it will go up.

“You can develop your stamina while learning swordsmanship. In addition, there are muscles needed for swordsmanship. Let’s start now…”

“No, it’s really okay. But why do you, Arin, make such an offer? Did you ask your father for a favor?”

“No. The Marquis didn’t say anything. It’s just my opinion.”

Was she alone? I decided to look at her information after a long time.

[Name: Arin]

[Features: Quick Sword lv2, Bright Landscapes Lv1, Aura Adaptation lv1]

[Likeability: 20 (deep interest) ]

The affinity has risen to 20. Is that why? Because her affinity has risen, she suggested something that would benefit me, and is she taking good care of me?

“Thank you. But I have an idea too.”

I thought I should try this and that for just one more month and if it doesn’t work, I’ll steal the main character’s talent and learn the sword.

“Let’s eat and think about it. It won’t taste any better if it cools down.”

“yes.”

I picked up a large spoonful and swallowed it in order to quickly eat the chilein soup that seemed to make me vomit.

“hmm?”

The taste of the soup I ate this time was very subtly different from the taste I had eaten so far.

“Arin, is this soup…”

It was time to ask Arin if he had added something new. A new window appeared before my eyes.

[You ingested poison.]

[You have satisfied the liberation conditions of the Sichuan Dangga.]

[The talent Sacheondangga has been unlocked.]

Sichuan Dangga (2)

I’ve never seen a martial arts novel that doesn’t feature Sichuan Tangga, unless it’s a completely new worldview.

Sacheondangga is one of the five great families of Murim and belongs to a political faction, but thanks to the setting of using poison and memorization, they play the role of a villain or get robbed by touching the main character.

When it comes to Sacheondang, it is poison, so I thought about whether I should at least eat poison for liberation.

I don’t know who the hell set this up.

The liberation of Sichuan Tangga was a joy, but there was a more important problem than that.

suddenly poisoned.

I don’t know what kind of poison it is, but it may kill me in a few seconds. It was a serious problem.

Not knowing what to do, I put the spoon in my mouth and stopped all movement.

“The Archduke?”

Arin called me, but I didn’t even move, let alone answer.

“The Grand Duke! Are you okay?”

I counted one minute inwardly, but there was still no change in my body. There were no signs of pain or blindness.

I saw Arin, who was standing next to me and had an expressionless expression, but gave me a worried look.
