It was around the time that Aria had just started her swordsmanship training. One day, Sabina proposed.

“Why don’t you learn daggers first?”

It was because the sword was still too early for a small and weak child. She didn’t even have the strength to wield a sword in the first place.

But self-defense was necessary.

So, Aria first learned self-defense technique, which neutralizes the opponent by aiming at the vital point with a dagger.

Later, even after growing up and learning swordsmanship in earnest, she did not neglect the dagger.

“Kuu, kuhk!”

The bandit’s painful moan resounded through the forest filled with only the sounds of birds and grasshoppers.

Soon, silence.

The bandits who had been distracted for a while suddenly burst out laughing out loud.

“Kuhahaha!”

“Puhaha! Boss, what disgrace is this!”

“No matter how careless you are, it doesn’t make sense to say that you’re being attacked by a woman. You’re going to be made fun of for 10 years!

“No, noisy, you punks!”

Then the bandit boss stopped his moaning and shouted with a reddened face. The embarrassment transcends the pain.

The bandits were just busy making fun of the boss who had been beaten by a woman. Because they had no doubts that he had somehow been unlucky.

“Aha, I see. That dagger, it’s not a normal thing.”

“Isn’t that the kind of thing that the nobles use where even a single swipe of the blade inflicts fatal wounds?”

“Well, if she looked like that, she would receive all kinds of treasures as gifts.”

Rather, they began to regard the dagger, not Aria, as a legendary sword.

However, the boss himself, who suffered the blow firsthand, was feeling something strange.

‘I don’t think she was swinging it in any way…….’

It wasn’t because he was unlucky or because the sword was a legendary sword.

Clearly, Aria was showing well-trained movements.

Besides, for some reason, though the reason was unknown, his survival instinct was calling out to run away immediately.

‘Dangerous.’

He almost took a step backwards. However, his face and pride as a bandit boss stopped him.

He looked back at his men in a cold sweat. They were still laughing and chatting loudly without understanding the atmosphere.

“Take, take care of my hand! If there’s even one scratch, know that you’ll get beaten up!”

He can’t back off after this. Rather, the boss strained his neck and shouted loudly.

“But the boss’s hand is already a rag before it’s cut off? Why don’t you just throw it away right now?”

“Can’t you shut up?!”

Aria felt puzzled by the bandits who were laughing and joking around.

‘Why are you holding your hand?’

As if it could be put back together.

‘It is true even if a part of the body is severed, if it has divine power, it can be reattached within half a day.’
