In the end, I went back to the 3rd dong.
When you open the door to the 1st grade gymnasium on the first floor, you can see a spacious field covered with fine grass and an audience seat you don’t know why.
It was a moment to admire the neat and tidy environment.
“Oh, Ezio. Isn’t that your friend over there? next to… … Who was it?”
There were sailors in the dance hall.
“Wow, you are so amazing! It looks like the sword is just sticking to my hand. How can I swing like you? huh? yes?”
“… … ”
Boo-woong- Hwi-woong-
“You know, but what is early graduation? Others say you are a year younger than us, is that true? So Sasha is your sister? huh? huh? yes-?”
“… … ”
Boo woo-woong- whiik-
“Chi… Why don’t you answer anything? Do you hate Sasha?”
“… … ”
“Hey, aren’t you saying you don’t like it? So is Sasha good? Is not it? Sasha, can I stay here? huh? huh? uh-?”
In the distance, there was Mew, who was silently wielding my sword while wearing a black sweatshirt, and a female student standing next to him, whirling around noisily.
He was the kind of guy who wanted to hold on to one by just hearing his thin and thin voice. The guy who stuck to Mew in the classroom earlier and asked questions about it. He had a stocky stature equal to or less than that of Yuri.
Was it Sasha or was it Sasha?
Perhaps her name was Sasha Elne.
The light blue hair, which looks like a mixture of water and white paint, is split in two around the neck and fluttered in all directions according to the trembling movement.
He didn’t really come to the gym to train, so he was wearing a uniform. With all his might, he is interfering with Mew’s swordsmanship training.
“Sasha is just something a friend wants to make… I never even talked… Are you really like that?”
“… … ”
Boo-woong- Boo-woong-
Indeed, Mew, with superhuman concentration, was cutting through the air while ignoring Sasha’s desperate appeal.
At Mew who didn’t answer, Sasha’s mouth popped out and started to grunt.
“Hey, if you keep doing this, even Sasha will be pissed off… … Heck!”
Wheeik—!
Let’s keep cutting down so that the slight wind is transmitted up to here.
Sasha, who was leaning slightly next to her, screamed in surprise and jumped.
“Wow, that was dangerous! Say it, say it! I’m not going to fix it!”
“… … ”
The sharp tip of the sword was towards the floor of the gymnasium.
Of course, it was not that Mew, who couldn’t bear his anger at Sasha’s abuse, tried to split Sasha into Sasha/Shah, but stopped training for a while as she witnessed Gabriel and I entered after the gym door opened.
“… … ”
Mew, whose eyes widened slightly, was looking at me.
“-yes? What, what?”
Sasha also follows Mew and sees this way. Mew’s subtly bewildered face and blinking eyes alternately look at me.
I’m sorry Mew, but I hope the interest doesn’t shift here.
“Oh, we don’t mind and go on. I will go there and do it.”
As he and Gabriel said that as he headed towards the right corner of the gymnasium, Mew waved his non-sword hand.
“… … Oh no. I was just about to quit.”
It seemed that Sasha was doing well just by listening to Sasha’s dizzying mental attack.
I don’t know how long I’ve been here, but looking at the drops of sweat on my pale skin, it seems like I’ve been holding on to my posture for quite some time.
I don’t know if I’m just interfering.
Sasha, who narrowed her eyes as if dissatisfied, opened her mouth.
“How are you… Sasha didn’t answer a word. You are completely discriminating against people, what is it? I am so sad.”
like that or not.
Mew ruffles her hair behind her ear, tucks her sword into its sheath and walks towards the gym door we opened.
Whoops.
Just before grabbing the handle.
look back at me and say
“Hey, work hard… … Ezio.”
He had a somewhat anxious face.
I even trembled a bit when my name was called.
It still takes a while to get used to.
I raised my hand and answered.
“Uh, thank you.”
“… … yes.”
Mew, who smiled faintly, quickly closed the door to shake off Sasha who was running after her, but Sasha turned around and inflated her cheeks and ran out of the arena to chase Mew away.

“What are you talking about, Ezio?”
“what?”
Gabriel said so as he threw a training sword at me.
“You look like you don’t know a single expression just by looking at your impressions, but did you see me smiling only at you earlier? What a pitiful atmosphere. my intuition is telling me There was never anything between you.”
That’s why I don’t like quick-witted guys… …
It’s weird that I didn’t notice it.
“Because there’s nothing, you keep doing it. I don’t have shame If you become friends with Mew, at least you won’t be ignored like Sasha.”
When he answered while swinging the wooden sword he had received, Gabriel shook his head with a hoarse voice.
“It was a little different than that. Should I say something is blocking access? Anyway, I think he’s the type that’s hard to talk to… … If you have a chance later, please let me have your legs instead. I don’t think I’ll ever see a good thing if I hit it first.”
“What kind of leg is that? Are you interested in Mew?”
“ok? you’re pretty 1st time in our class. There’s nothing wrong with being friendly, right? We’ll be in the same class all the time, seeing each other face to face anyway.”
“Well, it is not… … ”
Although there is no guarantee that Mew and Gabriel will get along smoothly just because I am in charge of the middle link.
Above all, it is questionable whether the current Mew would like to have a friend of the same type as Gabriel.
Gabriel is also a bit frivolous, but I don’t think he’s a bad guy. If I had to ask, I think it’s closer to the type that Mew doesn’t like.
… … It’s a bit ridiculous for me to say this.
“Actually, when I came here to study abroad, I had high expectations. Where I lived, there were only some hairy guys. Hiya- Really, trying to live with the men who smell of salt and sweat in that cold place would be worse than dying. I also wanted to enjoy my youth a little. The woman you brought in as a potential candidate was the size of an Ice Bear adult.”
“So you came to the Empire to study?”
Gabriel nodded slowly.
“Come on, I ran away saying I couldn’t live there. And when I drank the imperial water I had only heard of, ah, this is where my grave will be. It just came to me. Wow, there are a lot of older sisters lining up just in front of you, who just get hotter when you go out on the street right in front of you… … ”
Gabriel exclaimed with his arms wide open.
I laughed and said a word.
“This was a dangerous bastard. I need to get the devil out of your head for me.”
Gabriel narrowed his brow.
“What? Hey Ezio. We will soon be adults too. No, I’m already an adult in my country, right? Is there a way to stop dating as a student? Is there a law that a man and a woman cannot have intercourse? … … Oh, and isn’t it? Women’s dormitories are also allowed to enter the dormitory here as long as the other party’s consent is obtained. From what I’ve heard, dating of the opposite s*x is not strictly prohibited, but rather is encouraged… … ”
“Okay, grab your sword. If you keep talking like that, the first place I’ll attack will be your lower back.”
Gabriel sighed lowly.
“Heh, there’s a lot of useless shame about being a boy. are you a virgin From the outside, it looks like three or four women are running around day and night… … ”
“It’s about not forgetting why you came to the gym. Grab a sword first, dude.”
Gabriel shrugged and said.
“Okay, okay. it’s not fun But since he doesn’t answer the question about sympathy, it seems like he’s really sympathetic… … ”
When he silently raised his sword and aimed at Gabriel’s heart, Gabriel smiled mischievously and nodded his head.
“Okay, up to here. Then let’s get it started.”
Saying that, he tapped the wooden sword in the palm of my hand.
“It’s been a long time black.”
“Long time no see?”
“Oh, I didn’t have much to write about. I learned it, but my hands are not very good.”
What else is the taste?
He’s an unusual guy in many ways.
Gabriel suddenly asks me.
“Is it okay to just stick with one plate? I used a little bit of strength earlier, but I think my muscles are starting to hurt.”
“You don’t have to be hot. You don’t even need to use magic. Just think of it as a quick demonstration of what your talents are.”
“Hmm, I thought it would be a little while… … once ok. Come on, Ezio. you come in first Gabriel-sama, let me give you an advance.”
Gabriel smiled and took a stance.
“… … ”
“… … ”
As the conversation disappeared, there was silence between the two of us.
Gabriel, who spread his legs slightly, was obviously using the form of a well-trained warrior.
Even though he was just standing still, it seemed very difficult to dig into the gap. I’m not sure what angle to hit.
It’s not a fight to be honest. It is a practice match held in the name of simply testing each other’s abilities.
Even so, when he enters a battle stance, his brain, recognizing it as a kind of fight, activates his senses without realizing it.
… … Whoa.
Enveloping the whole body is a faint tension.
My eyes scrutinized Gabriel’s arms, legs, hands and shoulders, knowing that he was always waiting for me to attack.
write it
After pulling the right leg back and extending it.
“Uh-”
He hit the floor with one breath.
Taang-!
My body, which was shot like a cannonball, instantly draws in the surrounding background and enters Gabriel’s range.
The sharp air scrapes my face. The sound of the wind piercing the ears resounds like a drum.
Boo woo-!
Without stopping, he swung the wooden sword he was holding with both hands sideways.
“Oh, that’s pretty fast-?”
“… … !”
Kaan-!
The moment they collided, an unstoppable tingling sensation ran down his wrist and pierced his entire body.
It was the expected result from seeing the forged body and balanced posture, but Gabriel received my attack without retreating a bit.
In the meantime, Gabriel, who twisted his posture, flexibly hit my wooden sword.
Raise your right arm as if covering your face, and cross each other’s wooden swords in a 十 shape with the tip of the wooden sword pointing toward the floor.
Suga Gagak- Boo-woong!
In that state, I push the blade of my wooden sword outward as if I was kicking it out, while at the same time rotating my arm over my head and slamming it diagonally down towards my left shoulder. It was a transition of movement that was as natural as flowing water.
Tsuzuyu—
After being pushed out of the power battle, I rotated my body half a turn with my left foot as the axis.
and.
Tse-!
Each other’s wooden swords collided again in the air.
“Ugh… … !”
Again, a huge sense of resistance covered the wrist.
crazy. He almost missed the wooden sword.
It was an ignorant force.
messed it up
Percussion—!
Concentrating his power explosively, he slashed Gabriel’s wooden sword upwards, and quickly lowered it with both hands as if splitting his head.
“Uh-huh, isn’t it dangerous?”
Kaan-!
Gabriel smiles a little.
Hold the handle in one hand and the bladeless part in the other hand, and then throw it away.
damn. The attack of conversion was blocked in vain.
Boo-woong!
Immediately after, he bows his back and stabs me with one point.
The moment it was about to touch her neck.
Percussion—!
jumped back quickly.
“… … ”
“… … ”
The distance between each other widened, and after sharing a brief studio, we calmed our breathing for a while.
Guy Gabriel, it’s been a long time since I’ve had a sword, so I’m not lacking at all in terms of strength and skill compared to mine.
Rather, my strength seemed to outweigh me.
If so, did you see me at the gym earlier? It didn’t seem like it was.
Our confrontation process was so tragic that it would never have been possible if we weren’t sincere with each other… …
But I still don’t know what Gabriel’s talent is. It seems that his combat sense is naturally excellent. If I could handle the sword to this extent, would I be able to handle other weapons better?
I couldn’t get a full picture of Gabriel’s level because there wasn’t that much competition, but at least he didn’t seem weaker than me.
He opened his mouth, conscious of a drop of sweat running down his neck.
“Whew… … Gabriel, do you have a knack for fighting?”
For some reason, it was completely different from what I saw at the gym. I didn’t even know that I was going to be pushed back by the force.
“yes? Should I look at it that way?”
Gabriel smiled vaguely.
“Actually, it’s hard for me to explain. My father said that I was the true heir to the tribe, but like I said before, I prefer women to fights, right? Actually, it seems that I have to go into battle to show my abilities properly… … Thanks to this, I have been able to study in the Empire, and I have no complaints about bloodlines.”
Gabriel said so and shrugged.
“It’s just that when you enter a fight, you get stronger and your reaction gets a little faster. You will soon learn how to handle even the first weapon you see. Well, that’s it.”
no, what
Was he the heir of a true barbarian tribe?
“It looks mean, and the way it looks is savage.”
“-What bastard? Are you ignoring me now that I have small eyes?”
Gabriel widens her eyes and continues her speech.
“And dude, that’s not all my talent is. Come on in more I won’t stop you this time.”
“… … Well? Aren’t you going to stop me?”
“Literally. Just hit me.”
I can’t figure out what to hit.
Once you do it, you have to do it.
“Even if it hurts, I don’t know.”
I quietly nodded my head.
Taang-!
He kicked the floor again and ran towards Gabriel.
Boo woo-!
In that state, as he did before, he slaps Gabriel on the side and enters.
The air was halved and slashed, and the heavy ebony sword blade crept into Gabriel’s uniform.
Whoops—!
Let a considerable sense of blow resound from the sword face.
The moment I wanted to miss.
“… … !”
“Well, did you see it?”
Obviously, the attack hit accurately.
For some reason, Gabriel didn’t move even a single step from the spot, and stood still and took the wooden sword that was loaded with my strength as it was.
It wasn’t that the power was raised.
It was pure physical strength.
This is what… …
Hardness as if hitting a stone wall.
Rather, it was me who felt the pain.
Thinking that if I hit it a little harder, my bones might have cracked, I rubbed my numb wrist as if from an electric shock, and spoke blankly.
“… … How are you, you?”
“Since I was born, my body was a little stiff.”
Gabriel rubbed his side with a calm face.
“… … I don’t think it’s just a solid level? Isn’t this a knife that doesn’t fit properly?”
It was ridiculous, so I tried to hit it with a wooden sword, but it felt like I was going to lose a little bit of flesh even if I stabbed it with a well-ground knife.
“Oh, how did you know? There have been several occasions where other tribes have tried to assassinate me, saying they will get rid of the heir, but all have failed.”
“… … Are you human like me?”
“Of course not.”
Gabriel laughed out loud.
“My father told me that the protection of the ancient Vikings and everything was attached to me. Be a bit tough. You get stronger when you fight. Oh, the fear is gone. okay. Even if it’s true, it doesn’t hurt, but there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
What are ancient vikings?
This bastard, Gabriel, was bigger than I thought.
Gabriel suddenly had a serious expression on his face.
“But there is one problem.”
“What?”
“Magic is a young gem, me. Even if I learn or learn, I can’t use it well. That’s why I’m using up all my energy and using magic.”
… … Was it really a muscular brain?
It was an original Viking with warrior blood flowing from its bones.
“ruler… I think I’ve laid out all my information.”
Gabriel rubs his neck and looks at me.
“Now it’s your turn, Ezio.”
“… … ”
hmmm.
I pondered for a moment and opened my mouth.
“Is that your talent? The protection of the ancient Vikings or something… … After all, isn’t that what you call ‘born’?”
“Well, maybe that’s it? Your father would know better.”
Until now, I’ve been away for a long time.
Now I was definitely aware of it.
Take a moment and open your mouth.
“Gabriel.”
“yes?”
“Didn’t you say it didn’t hurt?”
Gabriel nodded at my question.
“OK. … … Of course, that means that if you fully charge your mana and get sore, no matter how badly it hurts you? Don’t you think such bad thoughts?”
“No, there’s no need to even use magic power for practice battles.”
“… … So why did you ask that?”
“No, what.”
I tapped my palm with a wooden sword.
Fuck—
With a thin smile, he held the handle firmly.
“Then it’s not my fault even if I get hit and cry.”
“… … ? what… ”
Taang-!
As soon as the words were finished, I rushed forward.
Whoops—!
Gabriel’s side, standing idly, was once again slashed with the blade of a wooden sword as if striking a ball.
A light flashed in my mind.
At that moment.
“It’s no use… … ———Big heuk?!”
Kaan-!
Gabriel, who was watching what he was doing, without a moment of screaming, grabbed the side that had been beaten and rolled over to the floor of the gymnasium.
“Ahhh—… … ”
Leaning on the grass, he trembles, wraps his side, and stretches out his trembling hands toward me.
Gabriel’s eyes were shaking relentlessly in the agony, which may have been the first time in a long time.
“Billion, ugh, billion… Hey, this, sir, kaheuk, this, what… … ”
“Did I say it wasn’t my fault?”
As I say this while swinging my sword, Gabriel tells me with a look of betrayal.
“No, hey, f*ck you… Magical power, use it, don’t… did… ”
“Did it just look like magic?”
“… … ”
The magic circuit certainly did not work, and the whitish blue afterimage did not come out of the sword.
As if he knew it too, Gabriel barely opened his mouth, rolling around in pain.
“Then, what, de… this kid… oh shit, it hurts… … ”
I hit the bone enough not to break it, so let me dry it with just a little bruise. However, the body is very strong, so it will get better soon. You overestimated your abilities, you bastard.
“It’s nothing.”
He squatted next to Gabriel and tapped Gabriel’s shoulder with his sword, opening his mouth.
“It was a bit unfair that only you were born with that kind of ability, so I got rid of it for a while because it was precious.”
So does MC has ability nullification or something 🤔
