Chapter 94
“That, and a man with such an ordinary appearance?”
I twisted my brows at the continued words of the man who seemed to be the butler.
‘Is this crazy old man openly?’
Unless my aesthetic standards have changed, the face of Ray Carter is just average.
A brown-haired young man who could be found everywhere.
Of course, I admit that being around Adele is like a firefly in the sun.
Still, this kind of reaction to guests is not a bit.
I blinked and tried to take a step closer, but the butler shook his head.
“There’s no way that such a rude person could be our princess’s spouse. Kheheheum! You carry that baggage and go over there.”
and! You’re a master at feeding this old man.
Looking back with a puzzled look, Adele Richter covered her mouth and smiled.
“You’re a bit picky with men, so the president understands.”
“I’m like that too, so I don’t understand.”
What if it’s only for men?
No, but why am I accepting this?
I shrugged my shoulders with an absurd expression, but the butler’s grandfather went inside the villa.
It was so disgusting to see him disappear without saying anything.
Even if his hair wasn’t white, he would blow away the iron fist of anger.
As I shuddered and moved, Adele sneaked up to me and grabbed my arm.
“It’s heavy, right? Let me help you.”
“That’s about it. It’s okay.”
“Then let’s go together like this.”
We stuck together awkwardly and carried Camille Felton to the guest room.
Then the servants who were following with their luggage whispered.
“Oh my! Oh my! Princess Princess must have found a weakness. Please help me with an ordinary man like that.”
“What if the author does something shameless?”
As the gossips of the aunties hit my ears, my expression became even more contorted.
Oh, I’m not going to eat your princess!
Not yet.

Internal injury refers to a phenomenon in which the basis of the aura is shaken due to strong shock or excessive use of force.
In this case, it could be relieved with a special elixir.
But it wasn’t possible right now.
‘I have to rule myself.’
I watched Camille Felton, who was soundly asleep, and slipped away.
Staying here would only disturb the caregivers.
“Where are you going?”
As I left the guest room and moved to the garden, Adele, who was looking at the flower beds, spoke to me.
“Let’s practice. Is there any quiet place?”
“I came to the best resort in the empire, so you can practice swordsmanship here too?”
“What’s up? Up until now, I was on a mission to cross the line of fire in this area.”
“I see. Come this way.”
Shrugging her shoulders, she led me to the back of the mansion.
There was a large greenhouse installed there.
“It’s chilly outside, so this would be nice.”
“You seem to like flowers.”
“Yes, it’s pretty and fragrant, right? Is there any reason not to like it?”
“I’m just like that.”
“That’s why I don’t have a girlfriend.”
“What if I erased my disguise and returned to my original face?”
“…there will be then.”
“Then it’s just because of the face!”
“It’s still not bad.”
“You say something you don’t even have in mind. Just go quickly.”
I waved my hands as if I was annoyed.
Then Adele Richter smiled like a puppy and backed away.
“hehehe. See you later.”
Click.
A silence came as she closed the door and left.
Since the glass is quite thick, I felt completely disconnected from the outside world.
It was a perfect space for training.
‘I think I know why he recommended this place.’
I sat down in a suitable place and reviewed the battle with Sabi Knight.
Tetra Manus was a strong enough opponent that he had to do his best.
As I went through this battle, I was able to realize that I also had weaknesses.
“Whoa…”
Taking a long, deep breath, I immediately summoned the demon that had been crouching inside my body.
It was to take care of my wounds.
‘I tried to focus all my energy on one point, but I couldn’t achieve it perfectly. Because there was not enough pressure.’
No matter how much I poured out my aura, I couldn’t unite at the pole.
It was because the energy based on mana had a tendency to spread while pushing each other away.
To make that possible, I had no choice but to press and compress it with strong force.
But can I try something like that with a swordplay that has nothing?
In fact, it was almost impossible.
Because it was terribly difficult to apply pressure from all directions.
‘But if it’s the ryun practice method, I can do it.’
Because Riverrun’s secret skill is basically handling not only Aura, but also mana in the air.
Swoop!
I made a hemispherical transparent membrane on the sword.
In addition, the highly concentrated aura extracted from Mahon was pushed all the way.
Then, as when the Sabi Knight was defeated, an intense gray flash began to emanate from the black dragon sword.
It was much more stable than before.
‘It doesn’t matter how much force you push. The key is to solidify the foundation.’
The next thing that complemented the overlooked part in the actual battle was the fusion with the dark smoke.
The reason he used the Dancheon pole in the battle with Sabi Knight was because it was powerful enough.
It’s just that it’s difficult to combine it with the killing method, so it’s just an incomplete herbivore.
Anyway, I thought I could do it well enough for now.
It was because I gained a great realization while reviewing the battle in the morning.
‘What will it take to become the ultimate assassin?’
Perfect stealth, sharp killing, perfect escape.
It wasn’t all.
The greatest virtue of an assassin is… … .
‘Natural.’
It was so natural that even the person who was assassinated could not recognize death.
The ultimate assassin in my opinion was such a being.
‘It won’t work because I’m forcibly trying to melt the cancerous flesh.’
With so much powerful power concentrated, what would happen if it was equipped with stealth?
Only the difficulty level went up relentlessly, and the results were inevitably poor.
So I reduced the functionality of the killing method and focused only on power.
In any case, Dancheon’s polearm is an expression of the will to kill the opponent without fail.
It was a secret technique that did not require much skill.
“Suck!”
As I breathed in and unleashed the black dragon sword, a gray glow pierced the space in front of me.
Spit!
This time, whether the Amyeonsal was properly fused, the breakage was very weak.
But the results were by no means shabby.
After a moment of silence, a round hole was created in the wall of the greenhouse.
Pass’s!

Just like when Sabi Knight died, the substance was turned into powder and scattered.
The influence of Dancheon Geukpae was not limited to just one point.
The power was so strong that even an indirect impact caused the entire greenhouse to shake.
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
“Huh? Wait a minute, isn’t this a bit ominous?”
Looking at the swaying pillars and ceiling, a sense of uneasiness came over me.
I hurriedly opened the door, slipped out, and watched the shaking greenhouse.
Sure enough, the building could not withstand the weight and began to collapse.
Even though they just spread the Dancheon pole in the air, this kind of devastation occurred.
Kwak Kwah Kwah! Kugu Palace!
Looking at the collapsed greenhouse raising a cloud of dust, I let out a low drool.
“Um… that’s fucked up.”

On the other hand, the guest room on the first floor.
While Ray Carter was in the middle of individual training, Camille Felton’s eyes were open.
“Ugh!”
The internal wounds hadn’t fully recovered yet, but it wasn’t to the point of fainting.
But Camille deliberately kept pretending not to come to her senses.
Because there was something to think about.
“Obviously… the form resembled Riverrun’s swordsmanship. The basic aura training method seemed completely different. But is that possible?”
In general, it was normal to be able to use all swordsmanship no matter what Aura training method was learned.
However, when paired and optimized for each other, the story is quite different.
If it is not operated according to a specific seniority method, it will not be able to exert its power.
This was especially the case with the Big Ki of the four generations.
“That’s why no one has learned Riverrun’s swordsmanship. It’s extremely inefficient.”
Felton swords were also lined with Riverrun’s master swordsmanship brought as trophies.
Camille had also been used to it out of curiosity.
But it wasn’t great enough to use anywhere.
Because the aura technique was drastically different, the breathing and rotation continued to be out of sync.
“There’s no way the president has learned how to practice Aura, which is only passed on through word of mouth… What on earth is it?”
Ray Carter’s ultimate move was deeply embedded in Camille Felton’s mind.
It was because there were only a handful of people his age that were so strong.
It seemed that he would occupy the top rank even among the direct lineage of the four generations.
“He is the person I want to be like.”
Despite being a donation student, he rose to the position of the strongest in Benderford.
A person who can speak without hesitation even in front of the princes.
Besides, he was the one who awakened the fighting spirit in himself.
All were adjectives attached to Ray Carter.
“I wish I could be that confident.”
Camille maintained a disinterested attitude throughout the family succession structure.
It was because if I didn’t do that, I might be purged.
In fact, coming to Benderford was a little bit of a refugee admission.
However, after meeting Ray, raging lava settled in his heart.
“I don’t know what he’s doing, but… I’ll definitely stick by his side.”
I didn’t know if I could find a breakthrough if I worked with the student council president.
It was as if he digested Riverrun’s secret technique in his own way.
Swoop! chuck. chuck.
Camille struggled to get up and went to the window.
But that was just then.
Koo-goo-goo-goo! Kugu Palace!
Wouldn’t the building standing behind the mansion suddenly collapse with an unexpected roar?
Soon, Camille witnessed an absurd scene.
“What if I smash the greenhouse!”
“I really didn’t do anything! It was just a stab in the air.”
“But the building is collapsing?”
“I must have done poor construction.”
“Aren’t you standing there? What about my flowers!”
“If you write, you’re going to crush me!”
“Who knows about destroying the greenhouse?”
Ray and Adele were running as if lovers were playing catch.
Of course, the conversation itself was quite rough.
Anyway, the culprit behind the destruction of that building seemed to be the student council president.
Camille shook her head and murmured softly.
“I don’t want to look like that.”
