Chapter 4: The Baskerville Dog (1)
Eight years have passed.
Vikir van Baskeville had turned eight years old and, as is the case with children in the Baskevilles, was taking his classes.
"Okay, last question. How did you say to classify the level of a swordsman?"
Vikir replied with a calm expression.
"Regardless of swordsmanship proficiency,
A swordsman who does not know how to load mana into a sword is a 'sword beginner',
A state that knows how to load mana into the tip of a sword, but the aura raised by doing so is weak like a gas is a 'sword expert',
The state where the aura rising from the sword becomes sticky and dense like a liquid is called 'Sword Graduator',
and the state where the aura becomes hard like a solid and the shape can be changed according to the caster's will is called 'Sword Master'. "
Of course, all of these are separated for convenience.
Basically, combat is affected by numerous factors such as health, terrain, climate, humidity, gravity, experience, and the density of mana in the air.
