A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 131

Chapter 131

Propagation (1)

***

With Ragnarok repaired, I spent the rest of the weekend training with Rize to adapt to it.

In its new form, Ragnarok is too large to be called a one-handed axe and slightly short for a two-handed axe.

It’s versatile, so I need to learn various techniques, especially how to use my strength properly.

“You need to use not just your arm strength but also your back muscles. Let me help you with that.”

Luna taught me how to build muscles, and I taught her how to use them precisely.

Living in the forest, I used all my muscles, but I didn’t know how to move them precisely.

Rize’s guidance was a big help in this regard. However, the muscles were not the main point.

“You mean how to use divine power?”

“Yes.”

The main point was divine power. I asked Rize to teach me how to use divine power.

By now, I’ve heard enough about Chaos’s divine power to be sick of it. It often involves a lot of mischief.
Th i s w a s c o pie d fro m ki n g m tl . o r g

But I don’t know how to use divine power itself. I recently realized this.

‘In the Soul World, it came naturally, but not for me.’

In the game, if you were chosen by Chaos, you could use divine power. But not me.

T h is w a s c o p i e d f r o m k in g m t l .or g
Except for Gulak’s thunder, I knew nothing. Seeing Rize split the sky yesterday made me think.

T h i s w as c op i ed f r o m k in g m t l . o r g
‘My divine power has exceeded 100. This should work.’

The divine power I accumulated over time had exceeded 100.

As I mentioned before, I had long surpassed the minimum threshold. I was so busy that I forgot.

Anyway, it’s time to use it in daily life and combat. That’s why I asked Rize.

Gulak’s thunder worked with my red mana as a patch, but Chaos’s divine power is different.

“It’s nothing special. Just earnestly wish for it from Lord Chaos.”

“…That’s it?”

“Yes.”

But Rize’s explanation was disappointingly thin. It was like saying if you wish earnestly, the universe will help you.

Seeing my bewilderment, Rize scratched her head, looking like she had nothing more to say.
T h i s w a s co p i e d f r o m ki n g m tl. or g

“It sounds absurd, right? But as I mentioned before, Lord Chaos is different from other gods. For recovery, medical skills are needed, and for ability enhancement, personal training is required. Divine power is essentially the limit of your potential.”

“What about yesterday? You split the sky.”

Not only did she split the sky, but Chaos’s will also imbued Ragnarok.

Even though it was a collaboration with Gulak, it was Rize who channeled Chaos’s will into the sky.

Could this only be possible for a Holy Warrior? If so, that would be a headache.

“Oh, yesterday? That was also possible because I wished earnestly.”

“…”

“You still look confused. Let me ask you instead. How do you control Gulak’s thunder?”

“Hmm…”
T hi s w as c o p i ed f r o m k i n gm t l . or g

Rize’s explanation made more sense now. Thunder did manifest according to my will.

It didn’t require specific spells or words, just like using mana. Gaia would be the same.

It was so natural, like breathing, that no special explanation was needed. Just wish to Chaos.

“How do I verify it?”

“Verify what?”

“Your shrunken chest.”

I pointed to Rize’s diminished chest. Her divine power had somewhat recovered in a day, but her chest was still small, roughly the same size as Luna’s.

“You’re asking how to visually check divine power, like my shrunken chest?”

“Yes.”

“That varies from person to person. My body is like this because it’s blessed by Lord Chaos, but everyone is different.”

What a vague and chaotic god. Still, it’s likely that mana equals divine power.

In the Soul World, there was no gauge for divine power. Only health, mana, and stamina.

Using divine power naturally consumed MP, so it should be similar.

Rize is a unique case, and her divine power depletion is noticeable.

T his w a s c o p i ed f r o m k i n gm t l . o r g
‘I should consider it as mana exhaustion.’
T his w a s cop i ed f r om ki ng m t l . o r g

If all mana is depleted, a day won’t be enough to recover. It would take days of rest.

When physical exhaustion occurs, it takes days to recover, so mana would be the same.

Rize can walk because she’s Rize. Most people would need bed rest for some time.

‘As for me…’

One day of rest fully recharges me. My long-term regeneration is much higher than Rize’s.

Whether to consider this as regeneration, I don’t know, but let’s just move on since it’s beneficial.

Right now, the important thing is to figure out how to use Chaos’s divine power.

“There’s no need to rush. When the time comes, Lord Chaos will help you directly.”

“…Alright.”

“Oh, there’s a way, but…”

“Really?”

Just as I was about to feel disappointed, Rize’s words drew my attention. If there’s a way, what is it?

While I waited expectantly, she looked around and walked somewhere.

Finally, she grabbed Ragnarok, which was leaning against the wall. What does she plan to do with it?

“Since this weapon is imbued with Lord Chaos’s will, it should be easier. Something interesting will happen.”

“…”

I felt uneasy seeing Rize smile while holding Ragnarok.

She walked over to me with Ragnarok and cautiously held it out.

“Would you like to try holding it?”

A bit apprehensive, I grabbed Ragnarok as she requested. Nothing happened.

Since I’m a follower of Chaos, it was expected. I looked at Rize curiously.

“Now, think impure thoughts.”

“Impure thoughts?”

“Yes. Thoughts that are not pure, like how con artists have different facades.”

“Hmm…”

I couldn’t think of anything other than cursing Chaos. But that’s too easy.

After thinking for a while, I had an idea.

‘I want to touch breasts.’

I didn’t specify whose breasts. They were all above average, so I liked them all.

Even if it was Luna’s, I wouldn’t mind. It’s natural for a man to like a woman’s breasts.

Thunk-

“…?”

Nothing happened. My hand on Ragnarok was fine.

Was this not an impure thought? Just as I was feeling confused.

“As I said, impure thoughts are closely related to lies. If you show your desires openly, it’s pure.”

“…Even desires?”

“Yes. He doesn’t like it when you lie to seduce someone, but if you openly say you want to have sex, he likes it.”

“…”

What kind of crazy god is this? I was speechless.

Crackle!

“Ouch!!”

The moment I cursed Chaos internally, a mild spark emitted from Ragnarok.

The spark was strong enough to sting even me, who was familiar with lightning.

“It seems you lied or cursed Chaos.”

“…Yes.”

“Consider it like this. Since this weapon embodies Lord Chaos’s will, it’s easier to identify. But it’s not perfect. Humans often deceive even their own hearts.”

It felt like a magical conch. How did a divine relic become like this?

Hector would regret it deeply if he knew. Not only did he break it, but another god also dwells within it now.

While I grumbled internally, Rize seemed to have a good idea and spoke up.

“Oh! This is a good opportunity to identify a con artist. Brother Sivar?”

“Yes?”

“Where is the con artist you made a contract with last week?”

Was she talking about Jane? It’s been a week, so I need to visit the workshop.

“We can go together to show you the world and deal with the con artist.”

T h i s was c opi ed fr o m k in gm t l . org
“…”

Jane is not a con artist. She’s a genius among geniuses.

Rize didn’t know this, so she was thinking of giving her a lesson.

I’d rather they not meet, but they should get acquainted eventually.

We could clear misunderstandings and invest more, so it’s not a bad choice.

“She’s an ordinary person.”

But Jane is an ordinary person. She is far from combat and uninterested in gods.

So, before verifying the truth, the odds of lightning sparking were high.

“It’s fine if I hold it. I can control the will.”

If that’s the case, it should be okay. I nodded and said,

“Alright, let’s go.”

“Lead the way.”

All’s good, but can we put away Ragnarok? Even in her Holy Warrior form, Rize is intimidating.

If Jane were a real con artist, she might bash her head in with that axe.

That would never happen, but I still felt uneasy.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

When we were almost at Jane’s workshop.

Despite the shabby alley, vigorous hammering sounds filled the air.

The noise source was none other than Jane’s workshop. It was in a poorly equipped area of the academy, so it had to be Jane.

“Is this it?”

T h is w a s c o p i e d f r om k i n gm t l . o r g
“Yes.”

Creak-

When I opened the poorly lubricated door, the hammering sound grew louder.

Simultaneously, the heat hit my face. I winced at the heat but soon got used to it.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Finally, I saw Jane hammering in her work clothes.

I didn’t know what she was making, but she looked beautiful working diligently.

However, her sweat made her glasses slide down, which seemed inconvenient.

“Phew… Oh?”

After finishing her work, Jane straightened up and wiped her sweat. Her eyes met mine.

Seeing me, Jane looked surprised, then flashed a bright smile and exclaimed.

“You’re here! I was just finishing up! But…”

She spoke confidently, likely because I was her patron.

But her voice trailed off when she saw Rize next to me. She adjusted her glasses, which had slid down from the sweat.

“Who is this? Your girlfriend?”

“No.”

How could she think that? At my firm denial, Jane nodded as if it didn’t matter.

Meanwhile, Rize looked at Jane with interest and took a step forward.

With just one step, she was right in front of Jane.

“So you’re the one who made a contract with Brother Sivar.”

“Uh, yes. That’s right…”
Th i s w a s c o pi ed fr om k in g m t l . o r g

Jane responded, clearly flustered by Rize’s sudden approach.

Rize scanned her and then smiled, holding out Ragnarok.

“Would you like to hold this?”

“Um… sure.”

Jane hesitated but held Ragnarok. As expected, no lightning sparked.

“What do you think?”

“It’s an unusual weapon. Can I examine it?”

“Sorry, but that’s difficult. It sparks when others touch it.”

Anyone else would have given up immediately.

But Jane had a unique personality. Her eyes sparkled with curiosity, and she asked urgently.

“Really? Now I’m even more curious. Please let me try.”

“Hmm… don’t regret it.”

Saying that, Rize subtly let go of Ragnarok’s handle.

At this rate, lightning should spark, startling her. Like it did with Luna.

“Hmm… it’s fine.”

“What?”

“Huh?”

But nothing happened. Jane held Ragnarok without issue.

Her lack of strength made it hard to hold with both hands, but she managed.

This meant one of two things. Jane was a follower of Gulak, or…

“Oh…! Ohhh!!”

She was favored by Chaos.

Realizing this, Rize’s reaction was highly excited.

Her face and voice were unusually animated.

“Sister!”

“Yes?”

Rize placed her hand on Jane’s shoulder and shouted.

The force made Jane’s glasses slip down. Her bewildered face looked cute.

“To meet a noble person here! I never expected this!”

“Um… thank you? But who are you?”

“…”

This could be really bad.

[Faith is increasing!]

Yeah, this is bad.
