93 – World 11. Training in Longevity (5)
‘Elf?’
The word ‘I’m an elf’ reminded me of a story I heard from Karina.
It was a story that there was a place where different races gathered to the south of the land occupied by the king.
To predict it, the elf who came to visit now probably also came from there.
‘But why did the elf come?’
Looking at Karina with thoughts, I could see her shaking her head as if she didn’t know.
Looking at the reaction, it seemed that this had not happened in the previous regression.
At that time, apart from my thoughts, Princess Cernes spoke thoughtfully.
“I don’t know why the elf came, but it would be nice to meet you, right?”
“I think we should hear the story.”
“That’s right. Then Seongmin Lee is waiting for you at the training ground.”
Well.
If the elf had come to Fritton Fort on business, it was only right that I, an outsider, leave it out.
“I will.”
“Mr. Lee Seong-min. I know the training ground.”
When I got up from my seat with the answer, Karina, who stood up with me, said that she knew the location of the training ground.
After that, I left the room and followed Karina to the training ground.
Also, while walking to the training ground, Choi Ga-yoon asked me.
“Why are you surprised by the word elf?”
“I am not surprised. I just heard that they are doing well among themselves.”
“The fact that you came here was unexpected.”
“right.”
Lightly affirming Choi Ga-yoon’s words, I thought about the reason the elf had come.
‘If it didn’t come to me during the previous regression, it’s likely that I’m the cause.’
If I am the cause…
There was too much to chew on.
From destroying the hatchery to killing Kshura and hundreds of thousands of vicious tribes.
In my heart, I wanted to hear what the elf had come for, but it seemed unreasonable for me to listen as I was not part of the same company in a situation where I didn’t know what kind of story would come and go.
‘Well, I’ll find out later.’
Thinking about it, I arrived at the training ground and waited. Soon after, several people came in one after another.
Except for the guide, there were three people in all.
‘Are those people teaching you how to practice?’
First of all, two of the three had a sturdy physique and a straight posture, giving the impression of being knights.
The other one was a man with a slim physique and the impression that a book would suit him rather than a sword.
‘It doesn’t seem to match the seniority method.’
As soon as he thought about it, the man walked forward and told us.
“Nice to meet you. It’s called Jaran von Ninetel. Excuse me, but who has learned how to perform volcanic eruptions?”
······Volcanic eruption?
When I asked how to perform a volcanic eruption, there was a high possibility that the man I introduced as Jaran would be the one to teach me.
‘Wasn’t the founder of the volcanic eruption technique?’
Thinking that far, I took a step forward to answer first.
“grow.”
“You were that person. Well, it suits you.”
what suits you?
“First of all, I move because I don’t know if I will disturb others.”
Jaran said to move, and then moved to one side of the spacious training hall and distanced himself from others.
Of course, Choi Ga-yoon and Shin Ji-won followed me silently.
“By the way, did the two of you next to you also learn how to perform a volcanic eruption?”
“Well.”
Come to think of it, what kind of practice did Choi Ga-yoon and Shin Ji-won learn?
Looking at Choi Ga-yoon for a moment, she said as if it was nothing special.
“I’m a lightning strike.”
“thunderstroke?”
What kind of practice is that? As I thought, I heard Jaran’s voice.
“It’s a technique that greatly enhances reflexes and body movements. It is also a technique for swordsmen and assassins who value speed.”
Thanks to that, after hearing a brief explanation of the lightning technique, I turned my head and looked at Shin Ji-won this time.
She also told me about the exercises she had learned.
“Meteor light technique.”
“It is a technique that changes the nature of mana. Even if mana is taken out, it is maintained for a certain period of time, so it is a technique that a person who uses a bow learns.”
Thank you for the calm explanation.
Not only that, but after confirming that Choi Ga-yoon and Shin Ji-won had not learned volcanic eruptions, Jaran asked me a related question.
“Are you two planning to learn how to perform exercises too?”
“Aren’t you here to teach me about volcanic eruptions?”
“Because I came here. I will only teach you the basics I know.”
It was more favorable than I thought.
Besides, there was no reason to refuse.
“I’d appreciate it if you would.”
“Thank you… More than that, can I get your names now?”
Then I remembered that he hadn’t even told me my name yet.
“Excuse me. This is Sungmin Lee. This is Choi Ga-yoon and Shin Ji-won.”
“okay. As you may remember, it is called Jaran von Ninetel. He is also the heir to the family that created the volcanic eruption.”
Oh, was he the heir to the founding family?
“First of all, to be honest, I didn’t want to teach people from other worlds my family’s practice. Do you know why?”
Jaran, who had a slender physique and even had the impression of looking weak at first glance, asked calmly.
It felt like he didn’t like the player.
“Why?”
“When aliens first came to this world, they thought that the light of salvation had come down. Even the speed at which you become strong enough to be incomparable to others and even the body that comes back to life even after dying.”
Jaran’s words continued.
“So, I voluntarily taught the volcanic eruption technique to otherworlders who looked promising. But at some point, the volcanic eruption technique spread all over the place.”
It was spread on the web by someone who learned how to perform volcanic eruptions.
“In addition, the aliens who confirmed the volcanic eruption evaluated it among themselves. A volcanic eruption is a good technique, but I can’t use it properly because of my anger.”
“Right.”
Karina also explained the volcanic eruption technique well, but said anger as if it were a weakness.
“A volcanic eruption is not to be judged by such a fool.”
Anyway, listening to the story, I felt that he was very proud of his family’s seniority method.
“Anyway, I originally had no intention of teaching it to people from other worlds, but the kingdom asked me to. I came here because I was told to work hard for the fortress.”
After hearing that, I nodded and decided to learn how to practice.
“Can I learn how to practice now?”
“It should be. But first, you need to know a bit more about how to build a volcanic eruption.”
“Details?”
“Yes. The higher the understanding of seniority, the easier it is to rise to the level.”
Then, was it because I did not understand the level of my volcanic eruption technique that didn’t go up?
“The volcanic eruption technique is…”
The moment Jaran was about to tell me about the practice method.
‘Well?’
A number of presences were felt at the entrance of the training ground.
Following that sign, I turned my head and fixed my gaze as I saw some people entering the training ground.
It was because among the people who entered were Princess Cernes and Diophen, who had been together a while ago.
In addition to the two, there was also a presence that I had never seen before.
‘Is it an elf in this world?’
I also had an elf among my colleagues.
Thanks to this, he was naturally compared to the elf who entered the training ground.
Looking at it, the elf here had slightly longer, pointed ears, and her light green hair was shining softly.
It felt like if I saw something in the middle of the night, only my hair would glow.
Choi Ga-yoon also expressed his feelings after seeing the elf.
“Is his hair fluorescent?”
“…”
I said it quietly, but I wondered if the elf didn’t listen.
Jaran, who watched the elf from the side with him, spoke simply.
“It’s a moon elf.”
“Moon elf?”
“I heard that you are an elf with moonlight energy. It’s the first time I’ve actually seen it.”
While listening to Jarran’s answer, the elf looked around and immediately met my eyes and started to approach me.
Choi Ga-yoon looked at the elf in a curious way.
“what? Why is he coming this way?”
“Let’s see if there’s something to do.”
However, I didn’t think it was too strange because I thought that if there was a reason the elf came, it was because of what I had done.
‘It’s questionable how he came to know about it.’
The heterogeneous alliance I had heard before felt closed off, so I wondered how they had known and found it.
In the meantime, the elf who came close to me bowed his head in a very polite manner and introduced himself.
“hello. My name is Silka, who serves as the action leader within the Moon Elves.”
“Lee Seong-min.”
“Yes, Sungmin Lee. Lee Seong-min’s performance was to the extent that it was transmitted to me through the wind.”
“…”
What does it mean?
As I looked at it without a word, Jaran came up to me and quietly told me how he knew.
“It seems that the wind spirit informed me.”
“government ordinance?”
Then, the elf who introduced Silkara nodded.
“that’s right. I could hear that Sungmin Lee and his colleagues had won against the Tier 5 entity Kshura and 370,000 thugs.”
At Silka’s words afterward, Jaran, who was next to me, and Princess Cernes and Diofen, who followed me, made a surprised expression.
‘By the way, didn’t Princess Cernes also know?’
Even though it happened in a different country, it was surprising to me as I thought I would know as much as it was a big battle.
At that time, Princess Cernes said to me with a face full of surprise.
“Could it be that Mr. Lee Seong-min was the one who wiped out Kshura and all the thugs in the Cairo Fortress? I heard you’re a woman.”
No, it seems he knew.
I just knew that it was Yoo Seo-ah and Park Mi-jung, not me.
After all, those two had the most notable performances, so it was understandable that I was buried.
