Sword Master, Becomes a failed student

I couldn't believe it.

Joel Cock himself was a promising figure who received the expectations of the Sharote Kingdom in one body. There was no one better than themselves at the same age, and that's why I'm here.

Of course, I knew there were far greater monsters outside the kingdom, but I never dreamed that Tarazan's knights would be in that category.

‘Those who are two years younger than me and have strong national differences. ’

That was only a minute ago.

The situation flowed in a completely different direction.

Joel Cook glances around, sweating red.

“What? You act like you're fighting. ”

“Are you getting your tail down? ”

“I thought it would be great to say it's an undercover article from another country, but it's just like that. ”

“Hey, what if I hear you when I talk to you? Speak up.”

I heard that already! Bastards! "

How dare you judge me on the subject of inferior students in a small country!

I wanted to shout excitedly, but he couldn't.

Actions that are not competent are nothing but laughter. What's more, Lumian Calard was very concerned that he was still looking at himself with sharp eyes.

His eyes, his attitude, his relaxation.

Joel Cock, who had just felt it, said in a suppressed voice.

“…… Now that I think about it, I don't think we need to do that. ”

“Hmm... Really?" ”

“Well, yes. What I could say, I went into the sword...."

Whoa!

At that moment, the Lumen rose like a wildfire.

The calm, windless field gives rise to a greater reverberation. All the apprentices standing around stared at him in surprise.

Lucas Young, Jennas' up-and-comer, was the same. Rather, I began to look at the lumen with hotter eyes than others.

Not to mention Joel Cock, who was exposed to the force.

His stammer is pale beyond sweat.

“I'm sorry…… I must have…… made a statement today, so please forgive me…… Hahn…."

It was a bunch of broken sentences, but it was easy to understand.

Then the lumen smiled with a satisfactory smile lifted.

“Huff, huff, huff…."

“Hm, are you okay? ”

“Phew, it's okay...."

Joel Cock had no choice but to say he was fine.

It's because the Lumians keep staring at themselves. He felt surrounded by numerous needles instead of air.

This place was so uncomfortable. I wanted to go back right away.

Fortunately, the Lumians have decided to end the Academy tour for the last time.

‘Just a minute. Wait…….'

But until Joel Cock was comfortable, he still needed more time.

It's because Lucas Young, Jennas' apprentice knight, has been keeping an eye on things.

"......!"

Suddenly, the atmosphere became cool.

In a short period of time, he picked up his sword, and a number of the arenas noticed him.

I didn't know why. I just felt like I had to.

Lucas Young was like that. Born to attract attention.

Like Carl Kroner? ’

No, it wasn't like that.

Luckily, his face wasn't that handsome. You might find him attractive, but just like that.

Of course, it didn't matter at all in the current situation.

The problem was that the man who seemed to have mixed Carl Krone and Theoro Schutgarn's personality in half, was burning his will.

Did you show your strength for nothing? ’

The Lumian makes a flawed and stuffy sound.

I teased Joel Cock a little too strongly because he hated it, but I didn't think this would happen.

While thinking about this, Lucas Young walks towards himself.

Thus, everyone's gaze moved. Theoro Schutgar, Boomer Simpson and Carl Krone stopped their training and focused on it.

Finally approaching the Roman front, he speaks politely.

“I'm sorry. Honestly, I didn't mean to belittle you. ”

"......."

“It was a foolish idea. I can't believe I'm judging someone who's been recognized by Sir Sodmaster John McCarthy. I apologize."

Lucas Young bows his head. The Lumian looks embarrassed and bows his head.

Of course, that didn't end the situation. There was nothing to attract the flaming hopeful mind.

It was fully revealed by the eyes. He gives a hot look and opens his mouth.

“I take the liberty of asking. Jennas' Apprentice Knight Lucas Young formally requests a duel. ”

"......."

The Lumian gives you an annoying look.

I thought about it earlier, but I didn't want to fight.

I wanted to avoid the situation where what happened yesterday was too much to be called a nuisance.

‘If the Academy Head, the Head of Knights, and the faculty were together, it wouldn't be a bad idea to be called Bread Beauty... ….'

They're a bunch of old geezers who are obsessed with fame and power.

They were faces I never wanted to see many times. Thinking about them, I frowned without knowing it.

“Phew.”

But there was no escape.

Lumian stares at Joel Cock for a moment. He flinches and takes a step back.

I could have ended the day in peace if it weren't for him.

‘There's nothing I can do. ’

Soon after, the Lumian decided to turn his back on him.

I wasn't running away. It was an act to go to the armory and pick up the sword.

The students who guessed it were wandering around everywhere. Everyone stopped training to think that something would happen that wasn't easy to see.

The Lumian didn't care. Lucas didn't care.

They had already been accepted to be sick of other people's gazes. They raise their swords at close range, keeping their eyes on each other.

The atmosphere of the training ground was at its peak.

And then...

A frightening wave has erupted from the Lumian's body.

"Hustle!"

Lucas Young, looking into his eyes, takes three steps back.

It wasn't just retreating. The posture is completely collapsed, and you twist and twist.

Everyone looked curious.

The distance is too far, so low and the rumian waves are disappearing too quickly, so I couldn't figure it out.

But it wasn't Lucas Young. He was staring into the Lumian's eyes, focused enough to spark, and he could feel his teeth for a moment.

What is this? ’

He glances at the Lumen with a dazzled look on his face.

But he wasn't looking at himself.

As if something serious had happened, I only stared away at the distant face as if I were holding back the unpleasantness.

“What? Now? ”

“What's wrong with him all of a sudden? ”

“Are you in bad shape? I didn't do anything, but suddenly..."

Tarazan Cadets' murmur grows louder.

They weren't the only ones. Rhodegia and Sarote's apprentice knights were also staring at each other with their faces as if they didn't know the language.

Lucas Young looks around with an embarrassing look on his face.

I didn't want to fight. Shaped words, but I wanted to get into a safe place and be stuck. Until you calm down. Until the anxiety wears off.

Fortunately, his wish came true.

A low voice comes from the Lumian's mouth.

“I'm sorry, but I don't feel so good raising my error. Why don't you reserve a spot later? ”

“…… I'll do that. ”

“Thank you for your consideration. ”

The Lumian bows.

And I told the other probationary knights.

“This is the last of the Academy Guide. Do you have any questions or want to go somewhere else? ”

No one opens their mouth.

The atmosphere of the Lumen seemed too serious to do that. The Lumian nods again.

“I take it you don't have one. Then we will take you to your accommodations. ”

He lays a saber on the armory. Lucas did the same thing late.

People gather behind the Lumian. Foreign talent, who looked like a squirming kitten, stalked him.

The knight students who saw this withdrew to disappointment.

I was looking forward to it, but nothing happened. It was worth it.

"Mmmm…"

Only Boomer Simpson was thinking differently.

He groans and says to Theoro Schutgarn,

“The Rodriguean woman. The tall one. ”

“Why."

“Can I ask the Lumian to introduce me? ”

Theoro does not open his mouth.

* * *

“That's what happened. ”

“Yes."

“I certainly understand your concern. But I know that hasn't happened in the last 10 years. ”

“Hmm……."

The Lumian takes Morgan's words seriously.

I had to.

That's the second time. In the last two days, I felt the gaze of an unknown gangster staring at me twice.

The problem was that the existence could be a devil, not a freak.

The Lumian clears his mind.

‘A territorial declaration is mandatory if you are a powerful horseman who won't be discovered by me. Which means there's no chance that anyone could be a Horseman.'

That's what I thought at first.

But it was a judgment that overlooked two possibilities.

"I have found a way to maintain my power without a proclamation, or I have found a horse that is powerful enough to exert great power outside the territory. ’

Either way, it was dangerous. His face became stiffer.

Then Morgan comforted him.

“It's too much of a reaction. Are you sure it's the Horsemen? It's much more likely that they're there. ”

“… but I felt a clear hostility this time. ”

“Well... if you're determined, you might feel hostile, or something like that." I want to see what you can do and say, "Oh, I want to fight! ’You might have thought, ”

"......."

“I don't think it's the Horsemen. It hasn't happened for thousands of years. Even the Demon King is no match for you outside his territory, right? You worry too much. ”

“Is that so…."

“And you said you felt hostile, but you didn't feel bad about Magi or malice. Do you think the Horsemen have the right to hide Margie from you? ”

“None.”

The Lumians have confirmed it. This is clear.

Morgan smiles, feeling the stiffness in his voice. I intended to relieve my brother's anxiety.

He drank a sip of beer and said,

“Anyway, don't worry too much. And this time, you almost got him. Maybe if I sharpen my senses a few more days, next time I'll be able to chase that rat behind me. You're the best, so don't worry. ”

“... Yes. You're right. I'm gonna go in there and get my senses up. ”

“Yes, it will work. Try to relax. I was too nervous to be like you. ”

“That's also true. ”

The Lumian nods softly.

The agenda was right. Now he was worrying too much.

You are the best. Outside the territory, you are confident that the Demon King will defeat you, not the Four Thousand Kings.

It didn't matter if it was human. If he had been, he wouldn't be hiding from his liver like he is now.

‘As I was leaving the Academy, I deliberately exposed a lot of gaps. ’

Huhu, the smiling lumen smiles.

Morgan flatters me. Now I have a character, like my big brother, and I feel resentful of his exaggerated praise.

Suddenly, he changed the subject.

“By the way, do you know Irene Curtis? ”

“…… I'm a Rhodesian dispatcher, why? ”

“Oh, that's just my taste. Hah, healthy looks, cheerful personality! Is she married? ”

“I probably wouldn't. ”

"Okay, okay."

“You look tall, are you okay? ”

“When did I ever care? Just bump into it and think. Ha, we should stick around the Academy for a while. ”

Morgan ordered more beer with a pleasant look.

The Lumian nods, looking at the agenda.

‘He has a lot to learn. ’

* * *

“Well, what do you think? You look pretty good, huh? ”

“The overall level seems to have dropped a lot, but the rumored four-man was definitely great. Power breached the lower gate. ”

“Huh, is that it? Amazing. It's hard to find rest with that kind of talent.But, of course, Buchanal was right. We need to continue our friendship with Tarazan. ”

John McCarthy, the mission's head of gun, stroked his beard.

Tarazan was definitely a noticeable country. There were a lot of great talent compared to the size. It was more interesting that they were all the same age.

‘It's amazing. ’

“Look... I'm sorry, but I have a question. ”

“Hmm? What? ”

I closed my eyes and continued to think about the Four, and Lucas Young asked me a question.

I was intrigued because he had nowhere else to stay. John McCarthy expressions favorably.

“Yes. Ask comfortably. ”

“By any chance, is the Lumian Calard...... on Expert's trail? ”

“Haha, I can't believe you recognized that. I see you've grown even more. ”

He said with a happy face.

I had to.

At such a young age, it is not easy to think that talented people from small countries are better than themselves.

Nevertheless, I correctly evaluated the opposing Pokémon with unbiased eyes, so there's no reason not to compliment them.

He nods frankly.

“That's right. Lumian Khalard has risen to the top of Expert. ”

"......."

“Amazing. I never imagined there would be such a young man in Expert at such an early age as His Majesty. ”

There was no slight discomfort or vagina on John McCarthy's speaking face.

He was a true knight. I did not envy my talents more than I did, and I did not ignore them or harass them because they were foreign talents.

The birth of genius was the eruption of the entire continent.

The more powerful the knights, the better, in an unsettled situation where the Horses might invade again.

John McCarthy truly thought so. He looks at Lucas Young and says,

“In my old age, there's no need to be so grumpy. ”

"......."

“It's a cliché, but you and Lumian Kalad are just walking the path of the sword. No one knows who's ahead. Even though I was only Exporter when I was over thirty years old, as you can see, I'm here now. ”

John McCarthy, who had a sip of water, continued:

“You look very anxious, there's no need to rush. Walk your path with integrity. Then you'll realize that there are those who thought they were going ahead and behind you. ”

“I'll keep that in mind.”

Lucas Young bows.

But his face was still stiff. It was blasphemous, but he couldn't agree with John McCarthy at all.

You're ahead of the monster? ’

It was impossible. I couldn't do it.

In fact, the question he was going to ask Sir John McCarthy was, "Did he get on Expert?" ’It wasn't.

‘Lumian Khalard, is he the sorcerer? ’

This is what Lucas Young really wanted to ask.

But I couldn't.

In his mind, no, in the world, it was absurd to be a Sodmaster at the age of 15.

‘But the fear I felt today...'... was nothing compared to what Lord John McCarthy had done. ’

Lucas Young bites his lower lip.

I felt like I could get more blood if I gave it a little more strength.

That's it. After a long time, he never fully escapes his fear.

‘Maybe forever. ’

Lucas Young barely raises his head, anxious.

John McCarthy, who once again showed a loving face, asked him.

“Okay, enough about the Lumian Khalard. You're not gonna tell me you're not confident with your swordsmanship, are you? ”

“Of course.”

Lucas Young nods.

There was no doubt in my eyes.

Tarazan Academy is mainly second-graders anyway.

Swordsmanship that only took place in the third and fourth graders had nothing to worry about. Neither did the repairman in Rhodesia.

“Yes, you should. That kind of confidence fits Jennas. I look forward to your swordsmanship. ”

“Yes!"

Lucas Young answers vigorously. That's how the conversation ended.

And then a week later.

Tarazan Academy swordsmanship has finally begun.
