20 – Encounters
‘Smart’
“Yirel, I’ll go in.”
The man who opened the door and entered was a handsome man with hair as blue as the sea. Irrel glared at Cassionis, the apprentice of the archmage, and said.
“Why did you kidnap me?”
“… Kidnapped, you’re originally mine.”
“Why am I yours? You killed all my escorts and brought me back, and you also removed my elemental power. What are you good at saying so brazenly?”
“To resist, I’m reflecting on the fact that Irell’s elemental power was destroyed.”
Cassionis smiled as he checked to see if the restraints attached to Irrell’s body were in place.
“Is it going to end just by reflecting on words? I almost died because you forcibly removed my elemental power!”
“If you forcibly remove the elemental power, you will die, but it’s okay. I, a genius, removed it delicately.”
“That’s crazy. Don’t you feel guilty for killing my escorts?”
“Yes.”
“Why… Why did you change like that? You weren’t like that before. You were friendly.”
“Why do you have so many men around you?”
“What does that have to do with what you did to me?”
“Because you don’t need it. There’s no reason for other people to protect you when I’m with you. You don’t need to build up your strength when I’m with you. So I got rid of them all.”
“I think you’ll be fine even after doing this!! The other kids will save me.”
The room fell silent as Cassionis snapped his hand. No matter how much Irelle shouted, no voice came out.
“Because you’re too loud. I used the silencer.”
Cassio Nis said while stroking the head of Ir El, who opened his eyes wide.
“Don’t worry, we’ll most likely fail, but we’ll be moving to another dimension soon. We can leave with you before the monsters come.”
“I didn’t understand why the guy who kidnapped you in the past did that, but now I think I understand. Did he monopolize you for about three months?”
“Then you secretly ran away from him with these beautiful arms and legs. Well… It won’t hurt. It’s a magic I crafted with great care.”
As Cassionis closed his eyes and concentrated, magic power swirled in his room. Let the magic-powered wand point to Irrel. Irrel’s limbs disappeared.
“I’ve wanted to do this for a long time. There are a lot of strong guys. Now you can’t do anything without me, right?”
Cassionis said that and smiled brightly.
Ir El let out a silent scream as he saw his missing arms and legs. No matter how hard he struggled, his body wouldn’t move, and he screamed with all his might, but no sound came out.
Due to his sense of lethargy and the psychological shock of his missing body, Ir-El shed tears incessantly.
“Wait a minute, I’ll check the magic circle and come back.”
Cassionis left the room as he hummed in a good mood.
– Tired of the reverse harem, he runs away. Some excerpts from Volume 9-
Gael, the sword master, visited Robert whenever he had free time to teach him swordsmanship. From the time Robert came here and practiced sparring until now, every single day has passed since more than a year has passed.
Since Robert’s swordsmanship itself had already been completed to some extent, he only cut down on his shortcomings.
Robert’s swordsmanship and state did not become so great just by cutting out his weaknesses. There are still immature spots in Robert.
However, if Robert gradually fills in what he lacks… He may even become a sword master.
‘Richard, maybe I can compete with him…’
Gael’s eyes sank. Richard, the son of the Grand Duke of the North Riderion, was a man with brilliant talent.
Riderion said this to Gael.
– Gael I don’t know why people are making you and me rivals. Your talent only ends there. It’s not enough to smoke anymore like the disciple you teach.
– The only thing you can win against me is training disciples, but since my son is such a monster, giving up is the answer. Even the swordsmanship competition and discipleship training didn’t work for me, right? Stop giving up It’s pitiful that you keep holding on to the impossible.
The word about swordsmanship was fine. It is true that Riderion is excellent, but Riderion said that on the day Gael’s disciple died during the war.
‘Does he know that it’s not over yet?’
Redelion discovers and nurtures a genius comparable to Richard.
I have lived under the shadow of Rederion all my life. Gael’s talent, which shone brilliantly enough, was just starlight in front of the sun called Richard.
Lost both in reputation and major. Even with a sword, there was no chance of victory. Gael was able to admit it neatly. However, when it comes to raising disciples…
“Rederion. I have to give you the first defeat.”
I will give defeat to the arrogant Riderion who has never been defeated.
————————————————————————- ———
There are two people who have been bothering me lately.
Gael, who madly teaches me swordsmanship, and the priest who comes to pray with me every day.
Gael came to visit me every morning and gave me lessons by sparring with the armistice agreement.
He said he would get rid of bad habits, and he hit all kinds of parts every day. It takes a lot of effort for those who have hardened habits like me to change their habits.
Pain is the way to reduce such effort.
Wrong posture and habits, and suffering every time you breathe, help to change the habits that have hardened in your body.
“Good work. See you tomorrow morning.”
I was beaten for 7 hours. I was lying on the floor, unable to move a finger.
Honestly, I thought today would be a little different.
Because the Holy Sword also gave me advice about the wrong sword path every day, and yesterday I reached the advanced level of Expert.
From noble mtl dot com.
But I was beaten worse than usual.
‘The sword is difficult.’
It has been like that since my previous life. The sword was the most difficult task in life for me.
When I was wielding my sword, two thoughts always haunted me. You must become stronger. And you have to survive.
When the lack of talent was filled, a path was found. So I became more desperate for the sword.
– Dagdak Dagdak
Uni, who was lying in the shade and watching me being beaten, approached me.
As if it was a pity that I, who had fallen helplessly, licked my wounds with my tongue.
At first, it was just itchy, but I was surprised to see that the wound healed, albeit weakly.
The holy sword that was tied to Yuni’s saddle flew up and landed on top of my stomach.
The holy sword hummed as it regained some of its power and was able to speak clearly.
– Robert, are you okay? I got hit a lot today
“That’s why I was so excited that I hit him.”
– Shouldn’t you go to the priest?”
I wriggled my motionless body a few times before shaking my head.
“It’s okay at this level. It’s okay.”
– You may not know much about your physical condition right now. I’ll have a look.
The holy sword radiated light.
The light wrapped around my body and after a long time of cooking, I said.
-I think it’s fine.
“No, but can’t you know my condition without looking at my body like that?”
After being swept through my body several times with the energy of the holy sword, I felt strange. It was as if the holy sword was groping my body with energy.
The holy sword was startled and answered.
-No. I don’t know. How do I know how you feel?
“I saw the priest in an old book. They say you have that ability.”
-I, the holy sword, don’t know. What are you talking about so much? Do you believe in an old man who read scraps of paper like that more than I do?
“Of course I trust you.”
Sacred Sword, who had been babbling for a while, seemed to be saddened by being suspected.
– When you go up to Robert Sword Master. I’ll teach you a great swordsmanship.
“What swordsmanship?”
– There is a sword technique that one of the contractors who reached Grand Sword Master taught me. I’ll tell you later if I like someone. But this can be done starting with the Sword Master.
“Grand Sword Master. Who are you?”
– It’s Gibert, who is called the slayer of the evil dragon.
Gibert was someone I knew and heard of. He was a person who existed before the empire was formed, and he was regarded as the strongest paladin of all time.
“But I can’t use my last name. Can I use it?”
– Because I can use my last name. You just need to use your sword
I was worried that if I didn’t have the holy sword, it would mean that I would become a half-assed swordsman, but I was still looking forward to it.
Advanced swordsmanship is not something you can learn just because you want to learn it. It was a surprise to me that it was a swordsmanship that the Grand Sword Master used and improved.
-From now on, increase the time you brush yourself by 1 hour every day!
The Holy Sword said triumphantly.
In fact, among the contractors of the Holy Sword, there were a few who were comparable to Gibert. And they also left the swordsmanship to the next contractor.
But he only told Robert the story of Gibert because he liked Berthe’s swordsmanship the most, as if he could use the holy sword only by himself.
‘Without me, you’re a half-assed swordsman’
The more I thought about it, the more joy covered the sword. It is said that only when I am is complete… I liked it.
