Plot

[edit]

Beryl Gardinant is a swordsman in his mid-forties who teaches at a small dojo in a countryside village. Though viewing himself as thoroughly unimpressive, one day, he is visited by one of his former pupils and invited to become an instructor for the knights of the Liberion Order in the capital. Reluctantly accepting the offer, this leads to Beryl reuniting with many other former disciples and discovering that they have all become highly accomplished individuals using the "backwater" skills he taught them.

Unable to refuse, Beryl travels to the capital city of Baltrain with Allucia, where he introduces himself to the soldiers and reunites with a second former student named Curuni Crueciel. Upon returning home, Beryl finds out his father has arranged for another former student, Randrid Pattlerock, to take over the dojo. Returning to Baltrain, Beryl encounters yet another former student, Surena Lysandra, who has become Allucia's rival. During his first training session, Beryl is challenged to a duel by the Liberion Order's vice commander, Henbritz Drought.

After graduating and working her way up to be the commander of the Liberion Order by defeating all of her opponents, Allucia came to conclusion that Beryl does not realize how strong he truly is. She then decided it would be her mission to push Beryl and the entire kingdom to recognize his skill. As Beryl and Curuni tour the city, they run into another of his former students, Ficelle Harbeller, who is now a wizard of the Magic Corps.

Later, Surena approaches Beryl with a request from the Adventurer's Guild to help train young adventurers. Beryl recalls his ill-fated attempt at becoming and adventurer in his youth and does not feel qualified, but both Surena and Lucy vouch for his skills. The Guildmaster eventually agrees to have Beryl duel Surena to prove himself. Surena is enthusiastic at the opportunity to properly face off against Beryl, recalling how he rescued her when she was a child. After learning how to use swords from Beryl, she became an adventurer so she could continue to use the skills he taught her as well as prevent other children from being orphaned like her. During the duel, Beryl acknowledges Surena has improved drastically, but spots a weakness in her non-dominant left hand and is able to exploit it to defeat her.

Beryl is celebrated as a hero by the Adventurer's Guild for this feat, but he turns down their offer to become an adventurer. The next day, Curuni and Allucia take Beryl to a local blacksmith to replace the sword he broke battling Zeno Grable. He is pleasantly surprised to see the blacksmith is another of his former students, Balder Gasp. Beryl and Balder both notice Curuni's short sword is suffering more wear than it should be, and deduce that her fighting style favors larger and heavier swords, so she decides to switch to a Zweihänder. Surena then brings one of Zeno Grable's claws and commissions Balder to make a new sword out of it for Beryl. After training Curuni how to use the Zweihänder and having dinner, Beryl heads home and catches a pickpocket named Mewi attempting to steal his wallet.
