Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter. 5

Angus

Today has been a bad day since morning.

A cloud of ashes. It's going to rain soon enough.

Knock, knock.

"Duke, I'm here to pick you up."

I heard a stranger's voice outside.

A knight with a strange face. Seeing your slightly elevated face, you look like you've just become a knight. Or an apprentice.

In fact, he followed him to the training ground.

Today's training ground is relatively close to the mansion. It was not very sunny, so it was also my favorite place in the world.

"You look good."

"· · · · · ·."

The knight speaks, but the truth is, he claps his mouth shut.

As he said, I was in quite a good mood today. I did not have severe muscle pain and liked the weather. Except for one.

‘· · · · · · · Liar. ’

It was obvious who that meant.

I could tell by the way he was leading me to the training ground right now. Originally, there was not a knight who didn't know his name, but his housekeeper.

But Ferda didn't come back until morning.

Cough

He bit his lip.

With a furious face.

"We're here."

In one sentence, the reality flinched.

Kershaw and Burke's body reacted in a reflexive fashion. I felt my palms getting wet with sweat, and the reality was I raised my head.

However, a surprising sight opened.

"Huh?"

There was no Burke and Kesher.

I don't even see Shayne scratching her insides. The article at the time explained why.

"I heard that you and the First Confucius went out of the subjugation last night and were unhappy. The second one said he had something else to do."

Monsters are regularly subjugated by Earl Archdut.

By the way, I think I heard it was about this time. When I thought of a memory I had forgotten, I nodded my head.

"Confucius, you're here."

A new voice is heard.

He was a young knight in his late twenties. He had uniquely deep purple hair, the same color as the ripe grapes.

The knight who made eye contact opened his mouth with a smile.

"You may have heard the details from Mond, but I'm in charge of the sword class today. Terran Rishiri."

I felt like I knew who he was when I heard his voice.

Yeah, that was Kurshire's driver. Now I remember.

"Today I'm going to do a simple relaxation and sparring lesson. Please tell us if you feel unwell or if you feel unwell."

In fact, he nods silently.

Terran smiles as he answers.

"Gather round! Let the training begin!"

Those who were scattered in the training ground gathered together.

"Today's training is a free contest. If you don't have a Master, you'll be in trouble if you don't work hard."

"Yes!"

"I can't hear you!"

"Yes! I understand!"

A loud shout erupted.

Looking at the scene, I felt a strange feeling of camouflage.

After a while, reality realized what a sense of camouflage was.

‘They're all young. ’

Mostly in their early teens. He is about the same age as in real life.

Terran replied with a smile.

"They're all seed. They're still sunchicks."

Like you.

Terran's smile seemed to say so.

He bit his lip slightly. In a class led by Burke, everyone attended only formal articles. Not even the seeds, not even the apprentice knights.

Of course I did.

Teaching an heir to the Earl.

‘But. ’

The reality is exceptional.

He was an Earl's blood, but not an heir, and a terrible swordsman.

So none of the official articles participated.

There is no penalty for not participating and is not worth participating above all.

In reality, he desperately felt his position.

"The third Confucius is a friend of his."

Terran's voice suddenly breaks my mind.

A familiar face. The ‘Mond’ that led him here.

"You'd better not be too careless with Biginer in front of you."

Bigginer. You can collect and deal with Mana.

On the other hand, he didn't even step on Biggener's threshold. Stabbing and slashing are just as easy as stepping, so you've said everything.

Terran climbs up to the top of the platform in front of the training ground.

"Before the duel, I'll start with a light run. The target is a 20 lap round trip to the training ground! The one who lags behind will have a special class later, so look forward to it."

Seeds whiten their faces.

"Go!"

At that moment, a lot of feet hit the ground.

Tadadada

The third training ground is quite spacious. It also has hillside courses, which are prone to fall if the pace fails to regulate.

So the acolytes made a bet.

How many laps will the arcade fall out of?

"Seven times. It'll be over in just seven laps."

"Well, at least 10 laps."

"Then I'll take eight!"

You hear the thundering of the acolytes in the lead. I never thought I'd hear that crap even though I knew it was a half-elf. The fact that he jumped off the trail slightly gritted his face.

That's how time goes.

By the time I turned ten wheels, the seed in the lead looked at the clear trail.

At the same time, the eyes of the acolyte flutter open.

"· · · · · · · · What are you watching?"

It was real.

The man in the rear suddenly chases you to the front.

"Can't you hear me?"

"Oh, nothing!"

A confused acolyte frowned on the answer.

I wanted to ask more, but I couldn't. I didn't think I could finish it. In reality, he tried to get his breath back and focused on running again.

As a result, the practice was successful.

"Huff! Huff!"

It was a result of all my physical strength.

The fact that she collapses on the floor and breathes rough breath. My legs thumped and my chest thumped.

Strangely, I felt good.

This is the first time I've ever finished a sword lesson.

"What? Why didn't you fall?"

"You know what?"

"I should have fallen out a long time ago."

The sound of an army of acolytes.

Hearing this made me feel more proud. Then suddenly I remembered the face of a man.

‘Ferda.’

Thanks to that, there are more than five things to complete today.

I learned from him, and I gained strength fast. It was a very difficult and difficult class, but it was definitely effective. In fact, he admitted it.

‘I wish I could've seen you run. ’

This was the first time I had completed twenty wheels without stopping, and without slowing down. I should have seen him like this.

The truth swallowed up my regret.

After a short while, the reality of what happened on the table turned to shade.

Thanks to the 10 minutes of rest for those who completed it safely.

"Thirsty · · · · · · · · ·."

My mouth is sore. I'm thirsty.

I was desperate for water. Looking where the acolytes were, they were choking on their prepared water. If I asked for water, I would give it to him, but I didn't want to.

In reality, he was surprisingly stubborn.

"Phew."

I sighed and leaned against the tree.

I looked up at the awkward sky.

"Good work."

"· · · · · ·!"

I heard a voice that had waited so long.

In reality, he turns his head in surprise. A man smiling with long blue hair tied.

It was Ferda.

"Here, I brought you some water."

Tuk

A soft leather pouch falls into the palm of your hand.

A chilly energy. Touching your pockets can make you feel hot. However, he did not drink water. You stare up at Ferda and ask with a heartache.

"· · · · · · Why are you so late?"

"Drink water first."

"Don't change your words."

"You should drink it while it's cool. Before the ice melts."

The word "ice" swallowed the saliva.

It's too hot to sweat. He knows the pleasures of drinking cold water. So he spilled Ferda once, and immediately drank water.

Gulp, gulp.

"Khh!"

Cool enough to freeze my neck.

Ferda opens her mouth, watching her expression unfold.

"I've got more work to do than I thought. So I was a little late."

Common excuses anyone can make.

In fact, he looks fat again. Ferda smiles and replies.

"I came before class, as promised. I was sitting up there watching."

"So · · · · · · · · · ·."

"You worked hard. You've grown a lot."

Short compliments.

Neither too much nor too special, but that was it. A light smile appeared on the mouth of my head.

Until you listen to Ferda.

"We can move on to the next step."

"· · · · · · · · What?"

What did you just say?

He asked with surprised eyes, and Ferda smiled.

"Tomorrow, let's pick up the stones and run."

"No, that sounds crazy."

"You have to increase your stamina by increasing your strength."

When the absurd answer returns, the realm looks dazed.

After a while, he frowned and tried to refute.

"Gather round!"

But at that moment!

"Prepare for battle!"

Terran's voice is heard from afar.

Instead of rebuking, he closes his mouth and sighs. If I'd known this was gonna happen, I would have jumped and fallen. Regrets came, but it was too late.

"Tsk, I'll be back."

Fortunately, the heist starts tomorrow.

I was about to take a step in relief.

"In fact."

Ferda grabs the wrist.

He looks you straight in the eye and says,

"The battle is crucial to the aircraft."

What the hell is this?

In fact, he looked at Ferda with those eyes.

"Aim for the target when the duel begins. Like killing."

"Like killing?"

"Yes. Think of the one you hate the most."

It's that simple.

This place is full of haters. Burke forced his way here, the Earl who did nothing, Shane who scratched his insides like a grunt.

However, there were others who did not like it.

"· · · · · · · Cushion."

Da-da!

You grip your teeth. All you have to do is say the name, and you get angry.

Fear, of course, has risen with it.

Did he recognize it? Ferda taps the shoulder.

"Aim with resentment and hatred. If someone encounters murder for the first time, there will be a gap. Squeeze the gap and stab through the sword. Then we win."

Win.

The sweet word made him bite his lips tightly. At that time, a thick palm stroked the head of the thread.

"It's okay. You can do it."

The moment I heard Ferda say it.

I was strangely calm.

On second thought, so was I.

The day I took my first class.

I felt energized by his encouragement even when I thought I couldn't run anymore.

It's strange.

But the point is, the tremors have stopped.

"Okay, I'll give it a shot."

Nod your head.

Ferda laughs and walks him out.

The reality of leaving the shade soon faced Mond.

You greet each other and grab the sword.

And...

"Go!"

The battle has begun.
