Chapter 37
Dellark C. Bednicker.
He was the extraordinary genius born of House Bednicker and the name that was always brought up whenever someone discussed the strongest people in The Empire.
If there was one word to summarize the deeds accomplished by this man throughout his not-long life, it was “insanity.”
He had started walking within a few dozen days of his birth, grabbed a steel sword before he was one year old, and punched and killed an ogre with his bare fists at the age of four...
He had read all the texts available in the house library by age seven, and he’d learned all the secret swordsmanship techniques and created a unique swordsmanship technique for himself at just age ten.
At age twelve, he enrolled in the Imperial Academy under special consideration, finished the entire curriculum, and graduated within just a year.
After this shocking and unbelievable chain of events, he received twelve blessings during his First Blessing Ceremony.
Twelve blessings.
Receiving just three blessings was usually enough for one to be called a prodigy, and five was enough to be called a genius. Seven or eight blessings was enough to be one of the heroes of history.
