298. golden lion

that buck
Now I am moving my steps to get out of the infirmary. The scene of the academy in my field of vision was completely different from before.
cluttered It is sinking.
The whole atmosphere was like that.
“…”
It’s something I often felt while looking out from inside the infirmary, but… a solemn atmosphere had covered the academy for a few days, and the atmosphere hardly changed.
‘Maybe it’s inevitable.’
After all, it wasn’t that much time that had passed since a disaster of that magnitude had taken place.
Accidents continued to happen.
There was a dangerous accident that everyone felt alert, and even though the instructors continued to be more nervous and tried to prepare, strange situations often intertwined so that they could not prepare.
And miraculously, there could be no victims, but that couldn’t continue.
“Maybe I was lucky.”
It was a strange feeling even though I was muttering blankly.
To be precise, the victims of the incident were limited to me.
Even my body was damaged and suffered from resisting the Apostle because the victim of the accident was mainly focused on me.
It was for a simple reason.
Because I know the future of this world.
Even if the future is not 100% correct, I tried to prevent it by interfering with the risky future.
Starting from the day he met Karite by chance, he got involved in twisting the fate of this world and was able to get involved in almost any accident. There were times when I was forced into an accident… but I somehow managed to get through it without any casualties.
however.
This accident was different.
—-The cadet died.
In addition, the damage of the cadets who suffered large and small damage was so great that it could not even be compared with the previous one.
Even if there was a danger, the atmosphere of being alive and safe and someone dead was bound to be this much different.
‘Everyone like me… .’
It’s not like they can survive facing a crisis, so it wasn’t their fault, it was realistically impossible.
Because the risk of an accident that occurred is so great.
Took.
As I was heading to the meeting place for training with Sir Isabelle, the sight of a cadet caught my attention as if out of the window.
“…”
He was sitting on a bench near the main avenue of the academy, and his blank face looked lifeless.
The atmosphere of the academy, which had been quite bright even in the past accident, changed like this in an instant.
After looking at it for a moment, he shook his head and looked away.
‘Let’s not think deeply.’
I can’t protect all the students in the academy.
Even if my growth rate was drawing a steep upward trend, I was still a cadet. I couldn’t do something that even the instructor couldn’t do.
‘And let’s not protect someone properly… .’
It was a reality that even protecting my body in the midst of the danger of an apostle targeting me was difficult.
“Whoa.”
With a short sigh, I stopped thinking about the heavy reality.
… … .
clap.
Even as I entered Adelia’s private training room, which I used for sparring with Leonhard a few days ago, I inadvertently looked at the woman next to me.
Refined golden armor and glossy blonde hair adorn the eyes.
“…”
When her calm eyes stared at me just in time, she cautiously opened her mouth.
“Sir Isabelle. Good luck with your training.”
“Today is the first time, so I plan to lighten it up.”
Now that she’s willing to help with training. I was here for training.
My body was in a state of recovery to the point where I was told that I could leave the infirmary, so there was no hesitation.
Chubuck, Chubuck.
Sir Isabelle headed straight to the center of the arena.
Katabuta Seeing that there was no need for another word, I calmly moved my body.
Seruk.
He picked up the spear that was lying on one side of the inside and stood opposite her.
When our eyes met again, she spoke naturally.
“First of all, before explaining today’s training, let me clarify that I will proceed without overdoing it.”
“yes. I will definitely keep that in mind.”
“I know the attribute is 5th level spearmanship, but are there any other changes?”
“no. doesn’t exist.”
“Then let’s prepare for training right away.”
Sreung!
Immediately after my words, she elegantly drew her sword from her scabbard, and even that slight movement caught her attention.
Poof!
The appearance of Sir Isabelle lightly swinging the sword and straightening the sword was simply straightening the sword, but that alone made it special.
From swinging the sword, the feeling was completely different.
‘What is the strength of the golden knight… … .’
No matter how strong Sir Isabelle may be, the only certainty is that her level is overwhelmingly higher than mine.
“I think the spear is a pretty good weapon in terms of characteristics. That it can be different depending on how you deal with it.”
“Sir Isabelle knows quite a bit about spears.”
“I have some knowledge. A golden knight should be able to cope with any situation, so he knows about almost all armaments. And I will tell you in detail about the training that will be held later.”
I listened to the calm voice and nodded, and Sir Isabelle smiled lightly.
…It was a smile that felt a bit strange to me as I was watching her.
‘It feels like something mixed with compassion.’
That time when I felt that the eyes of Sir Isabelle, who was usually calm, were filled with rare emotions.
“First of all, I have no intention of having a match like a person-to-person match with you as a training.”
“then… ?”
“Apostle.”
Took.
When I mentioned the apostle with a heavy voice, I blinked.
a sado What are you talking about?
“I plan to reproduce the apostle’s attack method and danger to you as it is. In the future, I will be spending quite a bit of time with you, unless directed otherwise. And no matter what happens, I will protect you. But aren’t you asking me to practice because you want that from me now?”
“…Yes. I want you to be able to protect yourself.”
I felt a change in my mind at the words that pointed out the core.
Of course, I expected training facing the wall by sparring with her.
But Sir Isabelle was looking beyond that now.
That you have to prepare for an apostle, not yourself… .
“That’s why what you need is not one-sided training like in person-to-person combat. Also, considering the correction of the understanding of the characteristics, it is quite an excellent weapon for spearmanship only in person-to-person battles, so I think it will be possible to respond even with a level 5 characteristic.”
The interpersonal battle was not a problem, but I nodded my head at the voice speaking.
“I understand everything you said.”
“yes. Then, from now on, you can focus on blocking or avoiding the energy that I manifested and start training. I’ll say it again, focus on holding out, avoiding, or blocking when you can’t help it, not trying to win against my energy.”
Sir Isabelle even set a firm goal for training.
That was completely assuming the situation regarding the apostle.
Again, she was telling me what to do when I confronted the Apostle.
—-Focus on protecting yourself.
“Then get ready. I’ll be right there.”
The moment when he nodded his head at the figure of the sword raised in front of him and raised the spear as it was.
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ!!
Like a huge light rising from Sir Isabelle’s body, golden waves began to burst forth.
It was a sight close to divine.
Brilliant golden aura.
‘It’s like mana, but it feels completely different.’
Perhaps it seemed to be the use of power that changed the nature of mana, but I also prepared by putting a spiral airflow in my spear.
“…!”
But right after that, I couldn’t help but raise my eyes.
The golden energy came together and soon began to form a single shape. It was in the form of a beast.
Surprisingly, in my field of vision, the ‘Golden Lion’ seemed to be alive and breathing.
The golden energy simply gathered together as if taking a shape, but the shape was very detailed and felt overwhelming.
“…”
However, Sir Isabelle still raised her sword from her seat and just looked at me. The reality is that the golden energy that rose from her body just covered her entire body as if taking the shape of a lion.
“In the future, as soon as this form of energy is completed for me, I will immediately continue the offensive, so you can prepare immediately.”
When her lips trembled and informed me, I had to be very nervous.
Seruk.
Now, when Sir Isabelle swung the sword, the golden energy oscillated and moved like a wave.
I couldn’t believe it even when I saw it.
Even so, the sense of crisis I felt was no different from the apostle I faced.
‘What the hell is this… .’
A car that made the skin feel tingly, and felt even ferocity. Golden energy exploded like an explosion.
And just like a surge of energy, it was coming towards me.
‘It must be avoided!’
I forgot the thought of facing the window from the beginning.
This was not the level of momentum created to face it by force.
good!
I hurriedly spread the spiral air current contained in the spear blade with my body and leaped off the ground.
Quaang!
When the energy in the shape of a golden lion hit the training ground strongly, its destructive power was also different.
The large dent in the ground made me feel how overwhelming the golden aura was.
‘The moment I encounter this… … .’
Now my spear will never last.
It felt right away.
… … !
Sir Isabelle, who took the form of a golden lion, began to attack endlessly in a strange form.
