I Became an Academy Genius Swordsman

Episode 28. Plum Sword (2)

Episode 28

One

“West!”

A plum sword that rubbed his arms tightly. Is this really a tool made of iron to cut something?

The softness of the skin and the tickling voice make my mind dizzy. He was lying down without properly checking his characteristics.

Then, suddenly, a shadow fell on his face.

Maehwa had risen above Siwoo’s boat before he knew it. Startled after being in a daze, he hurriedly got up.

“West?”

“what are you doing.”

“I was trying to help out as an insider.”

“… what. don’t do it.”

“It’s fine. I know everything.”

“… … it’s okay. don’t do it.”

“Hmm~.”

When Siwoo firmly refused, Maehwa stepped back with an incomprehensible expression. I was embarrassed about what was going on, but I didn’t bother to ask. want to know It seemed like it would stick again.

“Can’t you go back to normal?”

“I can go back.”

“Then go back.”

“But, it’s been a while since I saw a human. I want to stay a little longer. Can’t we?”

When Maehwa tried to cling to it again, Siu could only nod.

“Wow.”

She looked around the room excitedly. I looked around for a while to see what was so strange about the small room.

Then he looked out the window and said.

“I want to go out!”

“no.”

in that form? Because of the tube top bandage dress that sticks to the body, the curves of the chest, waist and pelvis are boldly exposed.

That alone is enough to attract a male’s gaze, but the immaculate legs stretched down straight attack the man’s heart the moment he sees it.

There is never going to be any going out.

“no. I can’t go out in those clothes.”

“Are the clothes the problem?”

“huh.”

Along with the clothes, the suffocating body is a problem.

Who is not a ghost there? Even the face with a ghostly energy.

To be honest, I don’t know what will happen if I leave.

It’s more scary because it’s not expected.

So, please don’t waste it.

“aha! It must have been the clothes.”

Whatever it is, I can’t get out. Seeing him nod, he seemed to understand what he was saying, but seeing the subtle raised corners of his mouth, I couldn’t let go of my tension.

“okay.”

Siwoo, please let her say ‘I can’t help it’ or ‘I’m sorry.’ I hoped that such words would come out.

However, instead of answering, she pulled the ribbon knot above her chest.

Siwoo’s body stiffened at the sudden development.

Maybe a naked protest? However, the bandage defies gravity and begins to move like a living creature. It swelled up like a tangled skein and moved around her body, changing.

When she came to her senses, Maehwa was wearing a blouse and skirt.

“Tada-☆”

She turned around and smiled proudly.

“… … This is the men’s dormitory. I can’t take you out.”

Siwoo made a final defense.

“Then I’ll turn into a sword for a while.”

pop!

– It was a plum blossom that quickly transforms into a sword.

The place I arrived with Maehwa was Garosu-gil. It is one of the walking spots of the academy with thick trees.

However, even though it is a popular spot, there are not many people originally, and even if there are trees, there is no place to hide thanks to the wide view.

However, there are relatively few people, and Garosu-gil is one of the dating courses for lovers.

“Western~”

“please.”

People’s eyes sting.

The gaze toward the running plum blossoms soon turns to Siwoo, who receives her kind call. In particular, the gaze of males is intense.

Maehwa brought a flower and asked Siwoo.

“Are these flowers pretty? Am I pretty?”

“flower.”

“Are these flowers pretty? Am I pretty?”

“flower.”

“Are these flowers pretty? Am I pretty?”

“flower-“

“West.”

“you.”

“Hee hee.”

Even now, Siwoo couldn’t understand why he was going on this meaningless date. However, if you go out uncooperatively and pout, that is a problem as it is.

she is her weapon A weapon that was even strengthened with a reinforcement ticket obtained after suffering from killing monsters. It was the most precious and important thing to him at the moment.

“I don’t know~”

He decided to make things right for now. It must have been frustrating to have been with the sword for a long time, with a lot of patience.

to be honest. It wasn’t even that forced.

“Western~”

After falling into the game, he built a wall against people with half personality and half intention. Today is the first time I am spending leisure time with someone here.

I don’t usually get lonely, but I don’t know the pleasure of being with others.

“Western~”

“OK.”

“oh.”

Maehwa widened her eyes at the changed reaction. Soon after, he smiled and held Siwoo’s hand.

If it was someone else, he would have pushed it away, but somehow, Maehwa didn’t feel repulsive. The look I saw was a sword, and didn’t I wield a fictitious me?

It feels like holding a handle.

Of course, I didn’t say this. I was sure that I would be blown away if I did.

Suddenly, I was a little curious about which part of the human body the handle was, but I didn’t ask because I thought it would bother me every time I gripped the sword.

“West. please take that picture That, with a smartphone!”

“Take your seat.”

“yes~.”

click-click-

Take pictures.

“West, ah~”

“I will eat.”

“Oh~”

I also bought Taiyaki and ate it

“What did you write?”

“No! Don’t look!”

We bought stationery and went to a cafe to write letters to each other.

Siu, who was at a loss for words, did not write. Maehwa was pouty, but she wrote diligently as if writing itself was fun.

Then, I suddenly remembered how I reacted to Kim Yohan. mentioning that

“Yeah, that’s irresistible. It’s like feeling hot when hot fire touches your skin!”

“Yeah~ yeah~”

“It’s true… … .”

The date continued until late into the night.

“Let’s go back now.”

“Huh, just a little more.”

“no.”

Siwoo, who felt that he had done enough, resolutely declared his return home. I had fun playing with myself as if I was being swept away, but now it’s time to go back.

“Seobang-nim, then please pick me up. Then I’ll go back.”

“okay.”

Siu readily accepted. They held hands, crossed their arms, and even hugged each other halfway thanks to plum blossoms that clung to each other, but carrying them on their back is easy.

He stretched out his back and she hurriedly climbed onto her back. I held him by the neck to prevent him from falling.

Why do you seem to give away a lot of fortresses and the like to others?

“Hip. West’s back is wide.”

“It’s the Pacific.”

We joked around and went back the way we came. A tree-lined street past the closed Taiyaki Pocha and the place where the photo was taken.

No one was there, probably because the dorm curfew was approaching, but since it was night, the small lights on the floor were on.

An empty tree-lined street, warm-toned lights lit up along the way. It was quite atmospheric.

Siwoo entered Garosu-gil. The sound of stepping on leaves and the sound of birds singing somewhere made a faint background sound.

Maehwa did not say whether she was tired or if she was looking at the tree-lined avenue at night.

Siu didn’t bother to speak.

“The West.”

“why?”

When she reached the end of the tree-lined road, she opened her mouth.

“Thank you. for playing with me.”

“About this, what.”

“It was fun.”

“I’m glad that’s the case.”

Siu was also quite happy. He didn’t say anything, but he smiled.

“The West.”

Her arms around her neck tightened a little.

“why.”

Her answer came after 3 seconds.

“Don’t push yourself too hard.”

“… … what?”

“just. I feel like I have to do everything alone. like it should be. It seems like you are looking at someone in a hurry.”

“… … I must have felt wrong.”

Siwoo’s answer was also delayed by 3 seconds.

Whoops-

Maehwa laughed a little.

“Is it like that? Did I feel wrong?”

“… … I guess so.”

Then she pulled out one arm and stroked his head. He poked at the top of his head, twirled the protruding hair, and rubbed the back of his head with his chin.

It must have bothered him, but he didn’t react. The small ripples her words created complicated him.

you were in a hurry? I? Is that enough to show off?

“I don’t think so~”

“You felt wrong.”

Even though he himself was confused, Siwoo denied her words. Originally, he never revealed his true intentions well, and that was true even in his pettiness.

However, Maehwa only quietly opened her mouth.

“Have you ever heard of that? The prosecutor speaks with the sword.”

“huh.”

“Someone may have said it to look good, but it is true. After all, a sword is a tool used by people, and a person’s disposition is bound to be revealed in its trajectory.”

“… … .”

“Like how you look on the outside, it shows up when you swing your sword. No matter how you wield a sword, people just think of it as a sword. I don’t really think of anything to do with him.”

Siwoo understood exactly what she meant and kept his mouth shut.

Maehwa, who rephrased the phrase “you’re pouty,” looked at Siwoo, who became quiet, and Betsy laughed.

“Don’t be in too much of a hurry.”

“… … I’ll try.”

Siwoo finally admitted it. In a world where no one knows, even in a world that is perishing. that I was silently suffering.

“That’s enough. Save yourself a little too.”

“… okay.”

he answered meekly. There were times when I was out of my mind because I was revealing my insides, and times when I was dumbfounded because the opponent was a sword.

“And the West. There’s something I couldn’t say.”

“What.”

“I will be gone soon.”

“what?!”

Siwoo hurriedly tried to check the system log. I was confused earlier, so I couldn’t check the property information properly.

Of course I thought it was acquired permanently, but it’s a one-time thing?

However, plum blossoms suddenly came down from the back and came right in front of me, so I couldn’t confirm it.

“Ha ha, what are you so surprised about? I’m going back to the sword anyway.”

“no… … .”

“About 10 minutes left?”

“… … .”

Siu faced her. Even though it is said to be gone soon, there is no sign of sadness at all.

It’s been a long time since I’ve become a human.

Rather, he was humming a song while watching Siwoo’s reaction. Anyone who sees it will know that Siwoo disappears.

After a long pause, Siwoo opened his mouth.

“Hey, are you okay?”

At the same time, plum blossoms were embraced. Siu, who was defenseless, gave her arms as it was.

“At first, it tickled, but it’s regrettable that you can’t see it?”

Are you sorry?

If you follow it, it will. However, it was a shock to Siwoo to see her courageous even as she soon returned to the sword.

It was a question of how he could do that when he liked it so much after becoming a human.

Did you read his thoughts?

Maehwa rubbed her face and said.

“We are together anyway. with you.”

“… … .”

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s a sword or a human because I’m with the West.”

Siu’s mouth was closed. At a time like this, I didn’t know what to say.

Should I say thank you?

Of course, he also felt gratitude for the one-sided expression of affection. However, other things were bigger than Siwoo’s gratitude.

“why?”

The reason for that one-sided love.

I was curious about that.

The soul that you probably don’t even know the name of.

Is it because of the soul that equals or surpasses the protection of the sword, is Maehwa so one-sided?

It’s a very personal and selfish question, but Maehwa smiled again this time.

“It’s just nice, but is there a reason?”

“… There is usually.”

“Then why do you like me?”

“I never said I liked you.”

“Then don’t you like it?”

“That’s not it… .”

“Then that’s good. Tell me quickly why I like it.”

“… … Because you’re pretty?”

“There are many pretty women in the world. That snowflake-like woman is also pretty. Puppy-like women are also cute.”

No, why are they with me? Siwoo was confused, but he thought about another reason.

However, Maehwa spoke first.

“Why do I like the West? It’s because he looks cool, has a sense of responsibility, feels it just by walking, takes the initiative, is powerful, kind, kind, hard-working, persevering, and manly.”

“uh… … hmm.”

“But I would have liked Seo-Bang even without all the reasons.”

“… … .”

“Because there is no reason why I like you.”

“… … .”

“So, even if Seo-Bang-nim comes up with a reason and makes it complicated, it’s all wrong.”

“… Is that so?”

The corners of Siu’s mouth went up crookedly.

I was sorry for putting a reason on her pure affection, and I was grateful for that, so I couldn’t make out my expression well.

“West.”

Maehwa grabbed both of Siu’s cheeks. Eyes meet. The face gets closer and closer.

side-

her lips were cold Like a sharp blade of a sword.

“hi.”

pop-

In the place where the plum blossoms disappeared, the plum sword was placed.

Siu pursed his lips.

“… I should have played better.”

My lips were a little sore. As if cut by the blade of a sword.

It was then.

[I did a lot of diagonal lines with the sword.]

[The user acknowledged the sword as a being, not just a piece of metal.]

“… … her.”

Siu sighed.

“I really should have been having fun.”

The growth of the main characteristics is something to be very happy about, but somehow I wasn’t very excited. He smiled bitterly and cleared the message window.

And the moment I was about to pick up the plum sword that was about to fall, I found a letter that had fallen next to it.

It was the letter I wrote while struggling with clumsy handwriting in a cafe.

-What did you write?

-No! don’t look!

– Cowardly.

-Look at me.

“Did you expect it?”

I opened the letter carefully so as not to tear it.

“under!”

And he touched his forehead as if he had taken a shot.

immediately laughed out loud.

-Don’t cry because you miss me! I’ll see you in a month anyway.

Siwoo called the system and checked the log.

[Maehwa Sword Characteristics Open: Personification]

[anthropomorphism]

– Turns into a human.

– Duration: 6 hours

-Standby time: 1 month

“It’s ridiculous.”

The corner of Siwoo’s mouth went up when he said that.

He picked up the plum sword.

Woong-woong- The plum sword delivered a pleasant vibration.

It looked like it was laughing out loud.
