Chapter 14 – Academy’s 1st Instructor (5)
Your recommendation increases your odds of joining.
================
Next day.
The classmates beaten by Alone never quarreled again.
Thanks to that, Alone, who gained confidence, entered the class. If his father, Wallace, had seen it, he would have shed tears of emotion.
Yoo-shin, who sent Alone to the classroom, tried to find a pastime to solve the time when the lecture was over.
‘I can’t see the other attendants.’
But the attendants I saw yesterday couldn’t be found.
Because of severe bruises, he was hospitalized. It is said that some of the attendants were kicked out after being notified of the unilateral dismissal.
OK, but what can I do? No matter which world you go to, the culture of power abuse always exists. Those who lag behind in status and lineage are always destined to become expendable items for those who have them, and those who have them only bring in new consumables again.
“Hello, Human.”
An elf girl came over.
She was a girl from the forest of Santander.
Perhaps it wasn’t the same class as Alone, Leticia approached Yushin, who was hanging around her academy.
Do you have any business? Yushin waited silently for Leticia’s words.
‘As expected, it’s a huge chest.’
Leticia was openly showing off her family’s wealth with her large breasts.
Is it an E cup because it’s an elf?
She was wearing a leather corset around her waist that accentuated her waistline, further accentuating the presence of her breasts.
Leticia frowned at Yushin, not knowing whether she knew that Yushin was glancing at her breasts, and spoke to Yushin.
“I’ll admit it, you definitely beat the Ardena warrior chief in a duel.”
“I didn’t believe it then.”
“Because I saw with my own eyes how he unilaterally defeated all the attendants. They were strong picks from high elf families. Even if they weren’t as strong as the warrior commanders, they were said to be among the strongest in the Elves of Liberia.”
“There were only guys who were just as good looking as the ornaments of nobles. That’s why I won easily.”
Hired and dispatched as servants by the High Elf family, they were mere chaff that relied only on their skills.
Fools inexperienced in fighting.
Yushin knocked them all down without even pulling out the sword he was wearing around his waist.
After hanging them all from a tree, he said, “It’s worth knowing the level of the elves.” Because it was too boring There were only those who couldn’t match the reputation of the high elves who were exerting influence in the elven country of Liberia.
“I’ve been thinking a lot about why the Ardena warrior chief tried to get you by paying a large sum of money. I was convinced when I saw the scene yesterday.”
It’s not really something to hide.
At Leticia’s prediction, Yushin nodded her head and told her it was true.
The Seven Swords of the Kingdom’s mana breathing method.
Any swordsman who practices kendo, regardless of race, will feel greed. In order to climb to a higher level, it is necessary to learn the mana breathing method that corresponds to it.
“Are your questions resolved now?”
“Yes. On the contrary, I was surprised that he told me so obediently.”
“Be careful not to harm yourself too. The feeling of jealousy spreads out in all directions. You might be targeted next time.”
“I’m not like stupid Alone.”
“I’ll admit I’m stupid.”
The conversation with Leticia did not last long.
It was because Yushin had to go to the teacher’s office to fill out a police report on what happened yesterday.
Of course, yesterday’s incident was obviously a ‘duel’, so there was no point in holding them accountable. However, since as many as 17 high elves were injured, the academy had to formally investigate those involved.
* * *
Alone liked swordsmanship training the most.
She felt good just holding the hilt.
In an academy where bringing in weapons is strictly prohibited, there is the only opportunity to touch a weapon, and that was the swordsmanship class.
Other high elves said it was more efficient to learn magic spells in time to wield blades, but Alone, who was strongly influenced by his sister, tempered herself by wielding a sword. Alone, who was training while wielding herbivores, called Yushin, who was watching behind him.
“Why?”
“I was bored since I wielded a sword by myself. Fight with me.”
“Ask the teacher over there to do it for you.”
“Already broken.”
“Okay? He seemed a bit weak. If it’s an expensive academy, you should bring in someone with a bit of skill.”
Alone was holding a real sword.
Perhaps that’s why no high elf touched Alone with a sharp sword.
Since the last time,
The high elves were busy paying attention.
As if he had seen a walking pestilence, if he even made eye contact with Yushin and Alone, he would shrug his shoulders and look away. Just the fact that Yoo-shin approached the class was enough to cool the atmosphere rapidly.
“The attendant cannot come in.”
The teacher in charge of the swordsmanship class stopped him. He was a man with a beautiful appearance like an elf.
Then Allone said.
“Then, teacher, please fight with me. I feel like I’m stronger than last time. Please look at my skills.”
“What…?”
Alone once defeated a swordsman instructor one-sidedly.
It is said that since then he has been persistently avoiding Alone’s sparring. Maybe that’s why the swordsmanship teacher was visibly embarrassed by Alone’s request.
Yushin was witnessing the loss of teaching authority at Bria Academy. She is a teacher who is embarrassed by her students! It’s a pity that she seems to be looking at the reality of Korea’s teaching authority these days. But what can I do? All of the students were high elves who were born with a golden spoon in their mouth. Unfortunately, most of the academy’s teachers were elves.
“Ha, but the real sword won’t work…!”
“Of course.”
Yushin raised the wooden sword that was lying around.
It was a wooden sword made from well-cut old trees. I got used to the wooden sword while swinging it loudly.
He could have used the sword that was worn around his waist, but the metal smelted sword was somehow dangerous. Because even if you couldn’t cut it, you could stab it. So Yushin ignored Alone’s request to use a wooden sword and used a wooden sword.
“Even a sword is dangerous for a kid like you.”
“Oh, I’m not a kid!”
“You look like a kid to me.”
Alone raised her sword vigorously.
Holding her sword hilt with both hands, she took a step forward with her foot and bent her upper body slightly.
It is the same posture as Ardena. Yushin already knew that from his sparring with Alone. Ardena had already mastered the pattern of swordsmanship. Yushin’s job was to train the perfection of his swordsmanship through experience.
‘There is nothing better to accumulate experience than sparring while wielding a sword.’
Yushin swung his sword first.
Alone deftly took a slight step back to offset his strength, and then he himself threw his sword forward and launched an offensive.
He obviously has a knack for swordsmanship.
Could it be the history of the Valencian family? Ardena, as well as her younger sister Alone, were innately gifted. It seemed that if he continued to pursue his swordsmanship to the limit, he would be able to become the next warrior.
‘The problem is the mana blade. It can be offset to some extent with swordsmanship, but it is difficult to become strong in a form completely independent of the power of the Mana Blade. Alone was Double Ember now. If I pile up one more ember from now on, I can learn the Mana Blade.’
Looking forward to that time.
If the mana blade is added to that swordsmanship that is still immature but is gradually growing…
Alone Valencia will be an outstanding genius that will be hard to match among her peers. The reason why Alone has been ignored at the academy so far is because she couldn’t use the mana blade. It was only natural that Alone would pass the graduation exam if her only flaw was corrected.
“Do it faster.”
Yushin raised the tempo of his sword.
The speed of the sword was noticeably faster.
The wind spread violently as it began to swing fiercely.
The high elf students who were sparring with pre-determined pairs, as well as the swordsmanship teacher, began to focus on the sparring between Yushin and Alone. Her hair fluttered wildly whenever a violent sword wind blew.
“Quit!”
Allone stepped back.
But she had no intention of staying silent.
As she kicked off her ground, she landed both of her legs on the wall, then sprinted in a straight line towards Yushin as she kicked her springs.
She swung her real sword with sharp anticipation. His swordsmanship was sharper and more sophisticated than ever before. But for some reason, her wooden sword didn’t budge. It is simply a wooden sword carved from an old tree. Even so, the wooden sword even deflected the jingeom’s sword attack.
“How on earth can you beat a real sword with a wooden sword!”
“You’ll find out later.”
“You said the same thing as my sister…!”
Did Ardena say the same thing as me?
At Alone’s words, Yuxin decided to end this couplet with her nodding.
‘Oh, it’s coming!’
Alone swallowed her dry saliva.
Yushin’s sword style changed in an instant. It was clearly intended to end the sparring with a blow.
Alone, who had long experience in sparring, predicted the direction of her next attack through Yushin’s actions. However, as if her skills were not yet enough, Alone eventually had to admit her defeat by dropping her true sword to the floor.
“You’re good.”
Damn
The wooden sword hit Alone in the head like a bean.
“Ugh! Stop hitting her on the head. Will Master take responsibility if her hair goes bad?”
“Is there anything worse out there?”
“Seeing.”
At Yushin’s words, Alone pouted her lips. He only patted the floor, probably because he was angry.
“What you looking at?”
Alone said to Leticia, who was staring at her with a surprised expression.
Leticia frowned.
It must have hurt his pride to have been lost for a moment and watched Alone’s sparring.
Allone put on a triumphant expression. It was as if they were looking down on me, saying, “How are my skills? It’s not a feeling. Actually, Alone looked down on Leticia.
“Don’t get me wrong. I just admired the swordsmanship of the Seven Swords of the Kingdom. I didn’t think you were as great as this, not even as great as a speck of dust.”
“Aren’t you the student who should worry about the graduation exam, not me? Even now, find a proper tutor. If you fail the graduation exam, won’t the status of the Santander family fall to the ground?”
These were the words Leticia once said to Alone.
As if Alone still remembered the words, she gave them back to Leticia.
The situation has been completely reversed.
Alone, who received intensive one-on-one training from Yushin Gilead, was blooming faster than his potential. The growth was visible. It was natural for Leticia to feel impatience at the achievements of Alone, who started running more vigorously than anyone else.
“Just because you were lucky enough to have a good mentor, don’t think you won with that.”
“Luck is also skill.”
“Who says that?”
“Our master.”
Big hum.
Yushin cleared his throat at Leticia’s words and turned her head away.
It must have been pretty cool. Yooshin seemed to like the academy’s wooden sword and continued to wield it. Then, the swordsmanship teacher approached Yushin.
“I heard that you are the Seven Swords of the Kingdom…”
“You are having a lot of trouble because of our foal-like little boy. Is the job of a teacher very difficult? I understand. When I was in the kingdom of Valois, I also taught students.”
“Oh, I see. It was a great swordsmanship! As expected, it is a skill worthy of the Seven Swords of the Kingdom of Valois!”
The swordsmanship teacher sent several questions with his eyes shining, as if he was interested in Yushin.
Leticia watched him.
Leticia greatly regretted that she had so badly missed her human slavery in Pamplona.
I definitely should have gotten that human… If I had been a little more greedy, I would have gotten it. However, despite such regrets, Yushin Gilead was already a slave belonging to the Valencian family.
