77 Confronting Professor Hwa (2)
‘You must be embarrassed, Listel.’
The average professor of the Angela class, Listil, was clearly agitated.
You would have thought that you would be imprisoned for at least ten days at the Lichtenauer New Spirit Training Center, but you came out in less than an hour, let alone ten days.
‘I’m sorry, but I’m already proficient in Lichtenauer’s new magic.’
I acquired the Lichtenauer Renewal Skill through Anne Rize, who was the instructor of the Black 6th class.
Anne Rize had no talent for magic training, so she was staying at the lower grades of the Grade Eight, but her technical skills were quite good.
The Lichtenauer Renewal Skill obtained from her using Uslecht was Rank A.
With this level of proficiency, you have enough time to complete the training course in less than a minute.
‘I was supposed to lock me in the training ground and contact the Schreiers, but I can’t.’
In the novel, Listil moves under the direction of the Schreier family.
Now that the issue of the Archduke of Lichtenauer is known to the world, Listil would have wanted the Schreier family’s guidance even more.
But if I move so fast, Listel has no choice but to act on his own thoughts.
“Professor, what should I practice next?”
“Uh… … .”
Listel was looking at me with a puzzled expression.
He would want to get rid of me if he had his own heart, but without the instructions of the Shreière family, he couldn’t.
“The Angela Class… Basically, it is a class focused on southern swordsmanship.”
“Yeah, I know.”
Southern swordsmanship is a swordsmanship that emphasizes speed.
Among the successors of the 6 great swordsmanship masters, Heinrich and Berithrize use southern swordsmanship.
“Once you master the Lichtenauer Shining Art, the next thing you learn is Lichtenauer’s Quick Sword Art.”
“It’s a swordsmanship created by the Academy itself.”
The Lichtenauer Swordsmanship Academy also creates new swordsmanships by creating other swordsmanships.
It is the Lichtenauer Quick Swordsmanship that was made with reference to several southern swordsmanships.
“This is a swordsmanship designed so that students who have just entered the state of Graduate can become proficient in using magical powers to increase speed.”
“I hear what you’re saying, it’s like training swordsmanship.”
“There is that aspect, but it’s a swordsmanship that can be used in practice.”
“okay.”
I nodded and said.
“So, are you learning the Lichtenauer quick sword technique now?”
“If it were any other student, it would have been.”
Listel looked at me with sharp eyes.
“But, I don’t think you need to learn the Lichtenauer quick sword technique.”
“then… … .”
“The step above that, I think I need to learn Ionia’s speedy swordsmanship.”
Ionia swift swordsmanship.
When I heard the name, the assistant who guided me was startled.
“Kyo, Professor, Ionia Rapid Swordsmanship… Isn’t it something you can learn only if you become an exclusive member of the Angela class?”
“It is my judgment.”
Hearing Listel’s cold reply, the assistant hurriedly shut his mouth.
I would have thought that there was nothing good about raising an objection for nothing.
“Ernas, it would be better for you to learn high-level swordsmanship if possible. Isn’t it?”
“I’m fine, are you okay?”
“That is not your concern.”
Saying that, Listel turned his head.
“I will guide you. Follow me.”
“Are you starting right now?”
“Is there any problem?”
“no.”
I smiled.
“It’s a good thing for me.”
* * *
Taking Ernas to the training ground, Listil bit her lip.
‘I can’t help it. All I can do is do what I can.’
Ernas had appeared in front of her with a lot of effort, but she couldn’t just let it go without doing anything.
One way or another, we have to grab Ernas’ ankle.
‘What I can do at this point is… … .’
I just want to kill Ernas right now.
If I left it alone, it would certainly be a major threat to the Shreière family.
However, they cannot do that without the instructions of the Shreière family.
‘It would be best to injure Ernas.’
Injuries during training are common.
You can say that he injured Ernas while teaching swordsmanship.
All you have to do is make it a body that can’t wield a sword for several months.
‘While Ernas is slowing down, Princess Berrys Rize just needs to hit it off.’
It shouldn’t be difficult to injure Ernas during training.
Ernas might protest that he injured him on purpose, but that’s not a big deal.
There are no other witnesses anyway, and I can’t provide any evidence.
“Don’t do it here.”
“… … .”
The place that Listeel was guided to was the training ground in the corner of the Angela class.
Since he was not accompanied by an assistant, when the door is closed, Listil and Ernas will be alone.
“Why?”
“It’s quite spacious.”
Ernas said while looking around the inside of the training ground.
“I was a little concerned because the space seemed too wide for just the two of us with the professor.”
“In order to master Ionia’s swift swordsmanship, there must be enough space.”
Saying that, Listel walked towards the center of the training ground.
“Ernas, southern swordsmanship values speed. It doesn’t just mean the speed with which you swing your sword.”
“… … .”
“From the distance the sword can’t reach to the distance the sword can reach… Closing the distance so quickly is also an important factor in southern swordsmanship.”
Listel drew his sword.
And after raising the mana from the heart, a significant amount of it was concentrated on the lower body.
“You might be thinking that there is not much difference between moving using the new magic. However, there is a big difference from simply swinging a sword after using Shinshin Art.”
Paah!
Listeel flew to the right at once.
And he swung his sword before his feet even touched the floor.
As the sword flew across the air, a pounding sound resounded.
“In Ionia’s speedy swordsmanship, he swings his sword while moving continuously. Without stopping, they keep changing positions and attacking.”
“… … .”
Whik! Paah!
As he continued to move, Listeel showed Ionia’s swift swordsmanship.
I could tell that Ernas was observing quietly with her mouth shut.
“This should be enough.”
After stopping the movement, Listil turned his gaze to Ernas.
“Then, let’s try it.”
Listil raised his sword towards Ernas.
“Ernas, try pretending.”
“Imitate… … ?”
“I mean, I want to reproduce the movement I have made now. against me.”
“… … .”
Seeing the silent Ernas, Listel snorted.
“I have no intention of teaching you the basic theory step by step. It would be faster to learn by practicing with your own body.”
“Is the professor also counterattacking with Ionia swift swords?”
“Don’t worry. Because I have no intention of hurting you.”
Of course, that’s a blatant lie.
Listeel was going to injure Ernas by pretending to be a coincidence.
‘Ernas will run at me while using the divine magic.’
If it attacks with a clumsy sword, it digs into the gap.
And with a single blow, you can seriously injure Ernas.
‘My skills are enough.’
Ernas is in a state of mimicking Ionia’s speedy swordsmanship clumsily as instructed.
It wouldn’t be difficult for Listel to dig through the cracks and inflict serious injuries.
‘You should explain that it was because Ernas’s movement was too slow or too fast than expected.’
With that in mind, Listeel prepared to infuse magical energy into the blade.
* * *
‘You must be preparing your sword by now.’
I stared at Listel’s right hand.
Although her sword had not been developed, she would be ready to unleash her sword by injecting magical energy at any time.
‘If I clumsily imitate Ionia’s swift swordsmanship, I’m going to pierce it and injure it.’
There was no such scene in the novel.
But I could see through Listeel’s inner heart.
Listille was quite a part of the novel, so I know her way of thinking.
‘How you think and how you act… I know it well.’
In the novel, Listeel clashes with the main characters for quite some time.
There were also many psychological descriptions of Listeel’s point of view, so in such a situation, you can fully predict how Listeel will turn out.
“Let’s try it.”
I deliberately took a shaky pose.
It was too inaccurate to be called an Ionia swift swordsmanship.
“… … .”
Even after seeing it, Listel didn’t say anything.
It was proof that she had no intention of guiding me properly.
“Can I start?”
“Yes, come.”
I took a step back.
And after making a clumsy run, he flew forward.
“… … .”
Listel smiled with a smile of conversion.
With this kind of movement, you would have thought that it would be easy for you to pierce the gap.
However… … .
‘Now.’
The moment when the distance with Listel was reduced by half.
I activated the magical power I had raised in advance at once.
I was deliberately not doing my best.
‘From here on, I will do my best to use Ionia’s speedy swordsmanship.’
Paah!
Along with the sound of the wave, the distance quickly narrowed.
Watching my movements suddenly change, I could see Listeel’s eyes wide open.
“… … ?!”
Listel tried to spread his sword in a hurry.
You would have thought that if you wield the sword with Graduite’s advanced magical power, you would be able to respond enough.
‘But, my magic is never lacking either.’
Now, Listeel thinks I’m just a lower grader.
But I’ve already reached the intermediate grade in the past.
In addition, recently, he took black spirit vinegar and yellow elixir at the same time to greatly increase his magical power.
‘If you use this magical power to combine Callesius Spear Swordsmanship… … !’
Break up!
Sparks flew all over the body.
Using the methodology of Callesius Spear Swordsmanship, it temporarily draws power beyond its limits.
I was already doing Ionia’s swift swordsmanship with all my might, but… One step faster here.
“Er… … .”
Listel hurriedly swung his sword.
It was a quick and sharp attack like a professor who had reached the advanced grade.
But, it’s already too late.
“… … !”
Paah!
It passed by Listeel, and stopped in a state of further advancement.
I looked back as I slowly harvested my magic.
“Ugh… … !”
I could see Listel crouching down, bleeding from his right shoulder.
The attack that I unfolded as I passed by inflicted a deep wound on Listeel’s shoulder.
Listel also swung his sword to injure me, but… I didn’t get hurt because she moved much faster than I expected.
“I’m sorry, Professor.”
I said in a calm voice.
“I was too clumsy, so I made a mistake.”
“… … !”
“Injuries during training are common, but I never expected this to happen.”
Listel’s face trembled.
Perhaps she intended to make a similar excuse after injuring me.
“Ernas, you bastard… … !”
Listeel got up with an angry expression.
“You bastard, I thought you were going to injure me from the beginning… … !”
“What are you talking about, Professor?”
I replied with a calm expression.
“To deliberately injure an opponent during training, there is no way such a madman is in the academy.”
“… … !”
Listel’s face contorted even more.
But he was not the person to feel ashamed and bow his head here.
“Ernas… … !”
She raised her sword in anger with a red flag.
I had a serious injury to my right shoulder, so I used my left hand.
“I will kill you… … !”
While shouting in a loud voice, she unfolded her sword.
Unlike the last time he was only trying to inflict damage, I could tell he was really trying to kill me.
He could not stand his anger and completely lost his reason.
“Professor, your voice is too loud.”
But I just responded calmly.
Just before… This is because he used Attilion’s magic detection technique to check the surroundings.
“It would be difficult for anyone to hear.”
“Shut up! You must kill me… … !”
The moment when Listel was about to rush towards me while screaming like that.
A gloomy voice rang through the training ground.
“It’s good to train like the real thing, but… It would be disqualification of a professor to expose such intense strife to a student, Listel.”
“… … ?!”
Supervisor of the Angela Class.
The top grade grade, Angela Bertinski, was showing her face on the training ground.
