Lunch the next day.
Athonia family mansion dining room.
Sitting at the spacious table were Leon, Aria, Cheren, and Count Philtron.
“””······.”””
No words were exchanged at the table. You can only hear the occasional sound of the workers moving the plates and introducing what kind of dish it is.
This is because we are all gathered together as people who are very quiet.
Not to mention Cheren and Philtron, Aria doesn’t really open her mouth except when talking to Leon.
Even Leon, who was the talkative one among them, was quiet as he was just eating his food.
The first time I became speechless was when it was time for dessert to be served.
Fitron asked.
“Are you satisfied with your meal?”
Leon responded.
“Yes, very good.”
“······.”
“······.”
The place fell into silence again. Leon was a little embarrassed when the conversation ended.
He then looked around and nodded his head. It was a combination that seemed to explain why the dining room was so quiet.
Fitron put down his spoon and said.
“I would like to apologize to Young master for the series of unpleasant incidents that have occurred in my family. Of course, the same goes for Miss Aria.”
I was talking about the Kendrick gang incident and the attack at Jeseonggwan yesterday.
Leon chose the right words.
“Actually, I don’t think you have anything to apologize for. “It was a problem between them and me in the first place.”
How can you blame the Asonia family when Kendrick’s gang are assholes? Even if you are a trainee here.
The one who had the problem was their family, which did not provide enough education for their children.
“On the contrary, I am sorry that the Asonia family seems to have suffered damage because of me.”
The previous day, while the Musky assassins invaded Jeseonggwan, several warriors from the Asonia family who were on guard were dealt with.
Due to the self-destruction of the last sprinkler, one of the high-end training halls collapsed to the point where it was unusable.
If you think about it, the assassins wouldn’t have come to Asonia without Leon. Leon had pointed out this part.
“It was their job, so you don’t have to worry about it. And it is a big mistake on the part of the family to not properly protect the guests staying here. Coincidentally, they targeted a time when all the family masters were out on the road.”
“It’s definitely not a coincidence.”
“That’s right. After a thorough investigation last night, we identified the criminals. At least something similar won’t happen when you stay within the family. “The security has been doubled, and at least one Master will always be stationed within the family.”
“That’s very reassuring.”
Leon guessed what Philtron would say next and struck the player.
“Are you planning on providing an escort as well?”
“That’s right.”
“I am grateful, but I think I would be uncomfortable with that. “Aria here probably feels the same way.”
“It is clear that Young master did not carry around an attendant. “You seem like the type of person who hates things like that. Can I ask why?”
“It’s just my nature. And like yesterday, I can handle most attacks alone or with Aria.”
Maybe it was because Leon still lacked enlightenment, but his strength was no less than that of an expert level.
Fitron also agreed because he was fully aware of it.
“Young master’s inaction is truly remarkable and cannot be denied. If Young master had an enemy he couldn’t deal with, his guards would be useless. However, I think it would be a good idea to prepare safety measures and contact information to be used in case of an emergency.”
“Of course, we are preparing for that. Are the Seven Seas of Musk very strong?”
Fitron closed his mouth for a moment, thought about this question, and then spoke.
“That’s a bit of a difficult question. The methods and techniques of assassins are very different from those of warriors like us. Combat power varies greatly depending on the situation and opponent. The level also cannot be simply divided into what we commonly call user, expert, master, low level, intermediate level, and advanced level.”
“Is there a separate realm exclusive to assassins?”
“It would be easier to think of it that way. I think the seven most outstanding of Musk’s assassins can be considered the Seven Seats. “One thing I can be sure of is that the ghost who invaded the Dragon Heart Palace last time was not good at one-on-one decisive battles.”
“As expected, it seemed so.”
“She is better at dark magic, magic circles, scheming, and infiltration. Among the Seven Seas, there are men like Mudo, Hermit, and Cheoksaeng who have excellent assassination skills.”
Leon asked again for no reason.
“Are you guys?”
“Men.”
Piltron’s expressionless expression was worse than Cheren’s. He didn’t even bat an eyebrow.
“If such men come, it will be difficult to survive unless you are a master level.”
“These are great killing machines. “I will keep that in mind.”
Leon didn’t show any fear when he said that. He answered calmly, lifted his spoon and ate the remaining pudding.
Meanwhile, Philtron and Cheren’s eyes met. Cheren looked at him and nodded her head slightly.
“And this is a token of apology to Young master and Miss Aria, and my sincere sincerity, so please accept it.”
The servant offered something to Leon and Aria.
Aria received a ticket and Leon received a booklet.
Piltron explained Arya’s first.
“That ticket is a reservation for Lapri Restaurant in District 1. “You can go and use it at any time.”
Aria opened her eyes wide. It was a famous, high-end restaurant in the islands with a reservation waiting period of several years.
“Thank you for your sincerity, Count.”
“And.”
Fitron added. It was just a glance at Leon.
“It’s for two people.”
“······!”
Aria’s widened eyes sparkled. She bowed her head politely.
Piltron turned his gaze to Leon.
“That would be an unofficial policy. “I chose this technology because I thought it would be necessary for Young master.”
On the outside of the booklet it was written that it was in the form of a flying sword.
“As you know, when dealing with assassins, there are many times when sword fighting is necessary. “It will be suitable for use as it is not only a simple sword screen but also a collection of various defense and survival techniques.”
“Oh, thank you.”
“If you have any questions while learning, you can ask the assistant manager.”
Bugaju refers to Cheren. She got her word.
“You can come visit me any time.”
“I will do so. Oh, and the Count. “Can I ask you one more thing?”
“Speak.”
“I would like to borrow a sword. “My sword is currently in the process of being made at the blacksmith shop.”
A dagger is good, but it is still better to use the main weapon. Wasn’t there a difficult situation yesterday where it was difficult to properly block an explosion because it was a dagger?
“It won’t be difficult. “Please select the appropriate one from the deputy head and geomgo (劍庫) and give it to me.”
“I understand, matriarch.”

As soon as the meal was over, Leon headed to Jeseonggwan.
As I was waiting at the high-class training hall, Cheren came in a little while later. She was holding another sword in her hand.
“Ah, instructor. “Are you here?”
“What does it look like?”
Leon is looking at the military service book he is looking through and asking.
“It’s beyond your imagination. These are very high-level technologies. There are many uses that I didn’t even think of… “Is it really okay for me to learn this?”
It was truly worthy of being called a special treat. It was hard to believe that something like this was given away to a foreigner.
“It is one of the representative seasons of the Asonia family. As far as I know, only blood relatives can learn it. Therefore, you must not distribute it to others.”
“Of course.”
“Leon, this is a courtesy given by the head of the family with the intention of maintaining amicable relations between you and our family in the future, so don’t worry and accept it.”
“Um… Yes, I will gratefully accept it.”
‘Is there something you wish for?’
Favor, sincerity, apology… Even taking those things into consideration, I thought it was excessive.
But Leon decided to pass on it for now. Good things were good things.
“And here is the sword I asked to borrow. I chose something that suits you. “It won’t be bad to use for a while.”
“Oh.”
Leon received a long sword from Cheren. Holding the sword, he swung it around and infused it with mana.
“I really like it.”
“Thank goodness.”
Cheren’s insight was to carefully understand Leon and choose a sword that perfectly suited his style.
Cheren asked, looking at Leon with her arms crossed.
“Is there anything you don’t know?”
“Hmm, let me unfold it first. “If there are any shortcomings, please point them out.”
“I understand.”
Leon prepared the first form of the flying sword type.
“I will go.”
Soon.
As Leon’s sword drew a circle, mana soared along the blade.
The first type of flying light sword type, Pagwang.
Whaaa!
Blue brilliance erupted in all directions.
Blue spherical energy waves spread out in concentric circles around Leon’s body.
It was a perfect sphere covering all directions. Leon’s new model was tightly wrapped in a sword curtain, leaving no gaps visible.
Sssss-
“Hmm.”
When the mana subsided, Leon looked at Cheren and asked.
“Instructor, how are you? “Is this how you do it?”
“······.”
Cheren’s pupils shook violently.
