184 – Salty & Sweet (6)
After teaching Irene and Amy how to breathe.
I came out of the Knights Faculty training ground with Amy.
After Irene learned how to breathe, she was so passionate that she immediately swung her sword.
From noble mtl dot com
─···Ah, I get it. At ten o’clock, I’ll learn it very much.
─Ah~ Why is it so hot all of a sudden? ······My face is about to turn red. Theo isn’t hot?
─Ah, let’s go together? I’m Joe, I’ll swing the sword some more and go. It’s a pear, because I’ve learned!
With this, Irene’s growth rate will be accelerated. Because there is also passion.
I was very satisfied.
This winter vacation, when I play [Ford Company], She must be with me.
Of course, the same goes for Amy. Her combat potential is inferior to Irene’s.
However, like Jang Woo-hee, she is an assassin who mainly uses a dagger.
One perseverance is also the highest level in the series, so I may be able to see what I didn’t see.
I said to Amy, who was standing next to her.
“Amy, learn her breathing as well as she did on the training ground.”
“I understand, young boy.”
Amy nodded her head, and she looked at me calmly.
A sight that has something to say.
“Do you have anything else to say?”
“Miss Irene is the Bocchan’s fiancé, and she is Ade, so I think I have a vague idea of why she passed it on to me… Why did you pass it on to me?”
Amy’s eyes were clear, unlike usual.
The reason she passed it on was, of course, to play [Ford Company] With me.
The reason Amy is attached to me is because of Equilibrium’s orders.
If there is nothing special, it will keep it with me, so it is natural to improve your force ─
I can’t say that.
I spun my head quickly and came up with an appropriate answer.
“As I said before, Amy, you are my secretary.”
“·······.”
“Do you need another reason?”
“·······No. Thanks for letting me know, master. It may not be enough, but I will train hard.”
Amy bowed her head to me.
“Then, let’s go back to the dormitory. You are tired.”
“······Yes, young boy. A circular carriage to the dormitory will arrive in about five minutes.”
“Yes. If you walk at your own pace, you will arrive just in time.”
First of all, I have to go to sleep.
Tomorrow, I have to meet Neike and Isilder from early on and teach them how to breathe.
No matter how munchkin Neike is, Jang Woo-hee’s breathing method is used by her father, who is strong even in the second half of this work. Currently, she is most likely superior to the breathing method Neike is using.
Anyway, these guys must participate in the attack on [Ford Company].

Theo walked towards the station after each cycle.
Amy walked behind Theo.
I can see his back, his clothes undisturbed even as he walks at a brisk pace.
‘Was my back that wide…’
It is already known that Theo continues to train intensely, including strength training.
But today, his back looks especially wide.
‘You’re growing up fast, man…’
She has seen him since she was a child. Back then, I really wanted to kill 10 more times a day.
I remember when he woke me up at 2 a.M. And asked me to buy a drink that was sold downtown.
I was told several times that the store that sells beverages opens at 10:00 am, but it was the medicine department who pushed me to come at least make one if it wasn’t there.
Yes, life at that time was salty. Never been sweet
Every day, I engraved the word ‘endurance’ into my heart several times.
If it weren’t for Selena, her younger sister who is being held in Dan─Equilibrium─, she would have given up long ago.
······But these days, I don’t feel like killing Theo.
No, it’s rather embarrassing because he’s been so good to me. It was sweet.
‘It’s such a strange feeling.’
I don’t know what Theo’s intentions are. I can’t guess.
However, what he can do now is to assist him well.
With that thought in mind, Amy followed Theo’s back.

Even during the Academy Festival, 4 am is the time when everyone is asleep.
However, Jang Woo-hee could hardly fall asleep.
“I’m sure I’ll hit [The Ford Company].”
It was because of Theo’s words.
He was not one to talk nonsense.
However, it is questionable whether it can really be destroyed.
After breaking up with him, I did a separate investigation on the [Ford Company], But there were a lot of odd corners.
Recently, in a magical city in the north, it became a hot topic that a magical creature called a robot was created that moved like a human.
And there was a high probability that the place that supervised the production of the robot was the [Ford Company].
“The article said that 100 units were produced on a trial basis.”
The robot introduced in the article was very impressive.
─Fulfills the master’s orders without emotion, as instructed.
─If you just inject mana, it works continuously.
─Through learning, we constantly grow.
Although he cannot use magic himself, he possesses the [Magical Nullification] Attribute, so he has as much knowledge about magic as most undergraduate magicians.
So, I quickly knew that the robot was an amazing thing.
“・・・・・・He knew everything.”
He also has the [Nullify Magic] Attribute.
However, in front of him, he haughtily said that he would go alone to save Hyoyeon.
But he cut it off and said it was impossible.
To see you like that.
···It was embarrassing.
Even though he learned from an early age how to hide his emotions, mainly his anger.
“After.”
My throat is burning.
Raise your upper body in a neat posture on the bed, and drink the water you put by his bedside.
Gulp, Gulp—
After drinking water, I sit on the bed for a while and stare into the distance.
“…In the end, you have no choice but to believe it.”
As he said, he was preparing quite well.
It was beyond my imagination.
“You are really working hard.”
He knows his talent well.
Aside from his ability to prophesy, he was close to a worm until recently.
However, he seems to have awakened these days, and is showing a completely different move.
To the point where I seriously wondered if he had even sold his soul to the devil.
I remember the commemorative ring of the Chalon family on his hand.
Piel doesn’t like him. Nevertheless, he even obtained a ring that could only be given to the distinguished guests of the Piel family.
His swordsmanship was also quite good.
He couldn’t be said to be perfect, but each technique clearly contained why he was cutting or stabbing in this situation.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s a demon.”
As long as Hyoyeon can be saved, it doesn’t matter anyway.
When I think of her, a part of her heart aches again.
“I will definitely save you, Hyoyeon. It may be difficult, but wait a little longer.”
Jang Woo-hee lay down on the bed again.
It is the right decision to support him with what he said he would believe in.
I decided to teach him how to breathe again tomorrow. You need to keep your body in good condition.
······But when I lay down, I couldn’t sleep.
Because it reminded me of the time when I taught him how to breathe today.
When he looked at his swordsmanship with his eyes wide open.
When he corrected the lacking part of his swordsmanship, when he nodded his head with a polite, nonchalant face, etc…
Unlike the overbearing prophets I had seen before, it was quite cute.
“Ah.”
I need to sleep.
But since I made up my mind not to think about it, it comes to mind more.
······ It wasn’t until 5 o’clock in the morning that Jang Woo-hee was able to fall asleep.

The day of the 3rd day of the Ellinia Academy Festival has dawned.
“Luluru, Lulu~”
A dark-haired woman in her mid-twenties in her dress was walking near the Faculty of Magic, humming her song.
Her identity was Maitri’s subordinate, Roy.
Currently, her status is not ‘Foja’, a reporter during the academic seminar of the Warriors Association, but ‘Yoru’, a civil servant.
“Didn’t I say the magic tournament starts at 1:00 PM?”
She lifted her wrist watch, checking her time.
The current time is 11:50 AM. There was still some time.
“Then, what shall we eat today?”
She looked around, looking for a place to eat lunch.
I saw a food cart selling lobster.
From noble mtl dot com
“It’s a bit pricey, but…”
Today seemed to be fine.
That’s also true, because Theo made it easier to write a report to submit to Maitri.
With Piel, Sienna, and Aisha, who were to be monitored by his side, the tracking time was drastically reduced.
“Yes, this is a prize for me. Let’s eat!”
With that thought in mind, Roy heads for the food wagon.
“!?”
I saw Theo in front of me.
Next to him were Neike, Isilder, and Aisha, who were also subject to surveillance.
‘No, why are they…’
Eating lobster with a comfortable mind should be postponed until later.
After Roy rearranged her disguise, she moved closer to them.
