Almark – Northern Sword, Southern Wand

Leila crouched down and looked at the dragon at Almark without wearing it.

"Wow. Every scale is so elaborate."

Reaching out, the dragon moves softly to escape it.

"I had a very strong impression when I actually saw it."

Almark answered.

"So maybe it didn't fit the challenge you said at the beginning, building something you've never seen before."

"But that's all you need to make."

Leila kept an eye on the dragon.

"It's been a long time, so let's make it the next challenge."

"Yeah."

Almark nodded.

I made a dragon, but I can't take it back to the dorm like this.

Reach out to solve the surgery.

Oh, a water dragon.

That's how Almark raised his face.

Illmis was snooping at the dragon.

"Well done."

Illmis smiles.

"Thank you."

According to Almark, Illmis invited Radmar, who was standing far away.

"Radmar, look at you. It's much more elaborate than I read in a book."

I guess today's question didn't go well either. Radmar approached with a grumpy face.

"Dragon, is that you? This is..."

Radmar was not particularly impressed.

"Looks like snakes, lizards and fish. Was the dragon so ugly?"

"This is a water dragon. You must be imagining a Fire Dragon."

I don't know if it's a firedragon or a flying dragon.

Radmar shakes his head.

"Either way, I'm not interested right now. It's not like that."

Looking at Radmar's back as he went back to where he came from, Illmis sighed small.

It's hard to break the shell.

Look at Almark with a bitter smile.

Perseverance.

"Yes"

Almark nodded.

"But that's where Radmar is."

"The strengths and weaknesses are the same."

Illmis smiles when he says so.

"But now the shortcomings are stronger."

Then he turned to Leila, who was still looking at the dragon.

"Leila, what would you do?"

"Me?"

Leila glanced up at Ilumis.

"Oh, how would you guide him?"

That's right.

Leila stood up.

"If I were you, I wouldn't listen to anyone who hasn't done anything."

Leila said it out loud.

"Give me a challenge, and if you want to talk like you understand, show me the results first."

"Looks like you."

Illmis smiles.

"But it's also the front and the back."

That said, Ilumis gently touched the dragon.

The dragon collapsed to melt and returned to Mars' original wand.

"Today's success is behind the scenes. Don't worry about it."

"Yes"

Almark nodded.

"I'm sure it was Mars's wand that made this elaborate dragon. It wasn't just a stone."

I see.

Illmis holds Mars' wand in Almark's hand and looks at Leila.

"But it doesn't mean you can't be confident. When Leila talked to me about this challenge this afternoon, I said I should try it. I thought you'd make it."

"Sensei"

Leila blushed slightly to protest.

"Don't say that."

"I'm surprised Almark thinks you're a dangerous man without any preparation."

Illmis jokes and smiles.

"Almark. I know you're worried."

Once again, Ilumis continued.

"But if it's like passing magic, applying magic, or doing it with a regular wand, it won't be something you're worried about. However, there are many mysteries about the wand itself, so I can't say for sure."

"Yes, I will treat it with caution"

Hmm.

Ilmis nods with a harsh face.

"But it's also true that Leila is right, she can't be too careful. Time is finite, and it won't stop."

"Yes"

Almark nodded.

Wendy.

Looking at Mars' wand, Almark thinks.

I will continue to train this wand little by little while exposing you to danger. [M]

I'm sure you'll laugh and shake your head even if you talk like that. I can clearly imagine that.

But even if you forgive me, this guilt should be borne by me.

I'll keep putting you in danger and be strong. [M]

"I'll go out with Radmar a little more."

Ilmis said.

"You guys go up today."

"Yes"

Almark and Leila lowered their heads to Illmis.

"Thank you."

Almark then shouted at Leila's back, who had just begun walking to the door.

"Leila, thank you for today. Let's go home together."

Leila glanced back.

"I have to study for myself in the dorm, so hurry up if you're going home."

"Okay."

Almark once again lowered his head to Illmis and followed Leila.

Walking alongside Leila, Almark remembered the Black Wolf Cavalry for the first time in a long time.

Remembering the day I saw the dragon earlier, it was the opening of the door of memory.

My father Raise, of course, is the leader of the regiment, Jerus. Executive Morgard.

Garba of the same age. One down, Mary. An honest ten captain Delac.

The faces of nostalgic people still come to mind clearly.

Is everybody okay?

Wilvis told me the other day that the Black Wolf Cavalry is still alive north.

I wonder if everyone is doing well.

Hey.

Suddenly, Leila walks next door and Almark returns to me.

What is it?

Watch Leila.

Speak up and Leila won't look at Almark.

I saw the neat side of my face because I tied my hair.

"You said you saw a dragon."

Leila said with her face forward.

Oh, yeah.

Almark nodded.

"Before you come over here."

"Yes."

Leila glanced at Almark with a horizontal glance.

"How big is the real thing?"

"For how long?"

Almark put his arms together.

I see. It's like a dorm building. "

"Not so much."

Leila rounded her eyes.

"It wasn't in the book."

"I saw a dragon like that."

Almark answers.

"I don't know what else."

Dormitory

Leila murmured again.

Amazing.

"Yeah."

Almark nodded.

"It was huge. And it was beautiful."

"When you see a creature like that in front of you,"

Leila said.

My heart or mouth was broken.

"It sounds small and ridiculous what a human being does."

I don't know.

Almark leaned his neck.

But Leila didn't seem to be asking for Almark's answer, so she didn't say anything else.

That day, Almark felt afraid of the beauty of the dragon.

But my father saw even the dragon as a life-threatening object.

It's not just my father. Garba was the same age.

If the mercenary's way of life was human business, his father and Garba watched the dragon as human business was.

Almark couldn't do it.

I'm glad you're here today.

Leila said.

"I saw something good."

"It's me. Thank you, Leila."

Almark looks at Leila's side again.

"I'm glad you told me."

"Tomorrow the buyer will come."

Leila said as she remembered.

"I've been looking forward to it. I want to show you something."

I see.

Almark smiles.

"I enjoy teaching people a lot of things every day, too."

"It's a gift to have fun like that."

Leila said impatiently.

The two faces are illuminated by the nearby dorm lamp.

Leila saw Almark unexpectedly.

"You're supposed to be in middle school."

It was a serious tone.

"Good luck."

That said, Leila turned forward and entered the dorm early enough as if she had left Almark in a hurry.
