chapter 114
Chapter 114.
Fortunately, the second day was the end of the nine.
Judging from the fact that they didn’t come anymore, it seemed that the guys who were aiming for a dragon rarer than expected were nothing more than small puppies.
‘I don’t think you’d believe me if I told you honestly that there isn’t a single good thing in dragon rare.’
On the contrary, it seemed that more people would come because of curiosity.
The second day ended and the third day arrived.
This enemy came here early in the morning.
‘One top-class sword expert and one low-class sword expert.’
It was an unusual combination.
Seeing as the two of them, I thought they might be master and disciple.
And it was close to the answer.
This is because the people he met in person were an old man and a boy.
“Hmm… I don’t think you’re going to find me here…”
Both were close to the good.
They weren’t the people who were aiming for things like this dragon rare.
said the old man.
“I came to receive instruction.”
“A teaching?”
The case that was supposed to happen happened.
A visit aimed at me, not dragon rare.
“I heard that you defeated a senior sword expert with a single sword.”
“…”
“Silence must be positive. To be honest, I have reached the highest level.”
Know.
“But even I, who is at the highest level, can’t catch it with a single knife, and even so that the people around me don’t notice.”
I nodded.
I even saw two seniors take down the superlative.
That’s why I know that even the highest ranks cannot defeat their superiors with a single sword.
“That’s why I dare to assume that you are a sword master.”
It has reached a higher level than that.
However, there was no need to explain to them about the state of the demigod.
He roughly nodded.
“I knew it! May I ask you to play sparring with me?”
I started to ponder.
They weren’t evil.
They were just people who wanted to learn from me.
‘Well… at least once.’
I’m not a bad person, so I didn’t think there was any need to refuse.
In addition, if the skill of such ancestors increased than before, it would be of great help to the continent.
‘It’s something that could possibly take down the guys from the Veles organization.’
I decided to give the old man a lesson.
It was not the purpose to drive them out, so they decided to control their strength.
“By the way, please keep this a secret.”
The old man was taken aback for a moment, but then nodded.
For some reason, I felt a sense of foreboding.
‘Couldn’t you have already talked about going to be taught?’
I threw away my thoughts and mixed swords with the old man.
The old man who stood at the end of the superlative class seemed to be able to become a sword master after a certain amount of time.
‘However, the key is that lifespan remains until then.’
Well, even so, this old man didn’t seem to have a sword master as his ultimate goal.
Is it just a tool?
It seemed that he was training himself to teach his students more.
After sparring with the old man, I asked the boy who was presumed to be the old man’s disciple.
“Would you like to fight with me too?”
Then the boy shook his head.
“My former master’s teachings are enough. And your skills are far superior to mine. It won’t help me that much.”
Ohh.
He was a pretty smart boy.
If it was a normal boy, he would have accepted my proposal with a single stroke.
Perhaps the old man who was his teacher taught him well.
As one boy just said, my teaching will not be of great help to him now.
I don’t know if you’re an old man.
“You refuse to fight with me! Then, I have no choice but to give you a present.”
I gathered the natural forces around me in one place.
And he gave the boy natural power.
With this, the boy’s mana would be able to exert greater power.
The boy was unaware of what had happened to him.
So did the old man.
He was unaware of what had happened to his disciple.
‘Yeah, it’s a natural force.’
The natural force had the ability to amplify energy.
However, it is not easy to feel this natural force unless you are a fairy.
In the future, the more that boy grows up, the more he will naturally accept the force of nature.
At the same time, Mana will exert greater power.
“Use that power for justice.”
There was a reason why I strengthened the boy’s strength.
Although quite smart, this child’s disposition was completely good.
Giving strength to such a boy would be of great help in living a righteous life later when he grew up.
‘You do what I can’t do.’
Because I prefer a quiet life rather than a righteous life.
Justice is something that can be left to others.
Except for Veles-related matters.
***
On the third day alone, guests have already come over five times.
The first guests are old men and boys, the second and third are just ordinary onlookers.
The fourth guest was punished because he was a wicked man.
And the fifth person who came this time was a familiar person.
“Pasta…!”
“It’s been a while, Cassias.”
Why is the Colosseum champion here?
It was embarrassing.
I asked Pastar.
“Why the hell are you here?”
And at that moment, Princess Letia shouted in a surprised voice from behind.
“Mi, Mi, Colosseum Champion Pastar in the Mycenae Empire…! And the only challenger who beat him, Cassias!”
ah···.
got caught
Princess Letia maintained her surprised expression while keeping her distance from me.
“I… he…”
I glared at Pastaar with resentment.
Pastard scratched his head shyly.
“I must have made a mistake. Rather than that, I would have thought there would be people inside… It seems that she is quite capable.”
Princess Letia has quite a few skills.
However, he is not so strong that the sword master will not notice him.
I hid my presence.
“hahahaha… More than that, why did you come here?”
“I’ve been living a wandering life lately, and I heard rumors about dragon rares.”
Pastard’s nomadic life?
“What about the Colosseum?”
As long as I left, Pastar would have been the champion of the Colosseum.
“What’s the use of becoming champion again in the Colosseum without you?”
Ah… it’s because of me.
Originally, Pastar was the champion for a long time.
But to say that you lost to me and immediately retired.
It was a boring joke.
‘No, was it rather good?’
In the Colosseum where Pastard was, the victory was Pastard’s share anyway.
But now, without Pastar, the champion spot will change frequently.
“So I came to find a dragon rare, and it must be that I happened to be there.”
“Well, I heard some rumors that the guardian protecting the dragon rare is a sword master, so I came here.”
Huh… the speed at which rumors spread was very fast.
“Then where…”
Suddenly, Pastar began to prepare for battle.
Embarrassed, I dried the pasta.
“I haven’t seen you in a while, so why are you ready to fight right away!”
“I came here to fight?”
Princess Letia, who was next to her, shouted.
“No matter how much I was a Colosseum champion, this person is no good! Besides, you’ve already lost it once! And this person is more than a sword master!”
Princess Letia proudly tells her story.
Seeing that, I was furious.
I looked at Pastar’s face.
It was Pastard with a tear-jerking smile.
It seems that he is stuck at the level of sword master or higher.
“Oh, is that true! A level higher than that of a sword master!”
“That’s… after… it’s true.”
“I can’t stand it any longer, please fight with me right now. No, please!”
Pastard was still in a state where he hadn’t reached full maturity as a sword master.
So, it was only natural that he did not know much about this area.
If there was someone who reached full mastery of the sword master, I would say this.
‘Nonsense. There is nothing beyond that. If there is, it’s perfect in Sword Master!’
However, Pastard had not even reached the level of mastery of the sword.
Maybe that’s why it’s so easy to believe.
“All right.”
“Huh, I’m looking forward to it. Wouldn’t it be nice to change seats?”
“it’s okay.”
I mean, I plan to finish it soon.
“But that woman… no, it will be fine. I mean, he’s so talented that I can’t grasp his presence.”
That’s a misunderstanding, but I’ll end it right away with no damage to the surroundings.
“Please yield to the seon-gong!”
Pastar came right up to me.
In an instant, I grabbed Pastar’s back and slapped him on the back of the neck.
With a groan, Pastar passed out in the same running posture.
I moved Pastaar, who had kissed the ground, into the burrow.
“It will be quite noisy when it wakes up again…”
I poured my eyes of resentment on Princess Letia.
However, Princess Letia was happy that I had won and ignored my resentful gaze.
***
After Pastar awoke, he was dazed for a while.
“…”
“Pasta? Pastar?”
“Hey, how are you? That’s what a hero is.”
Embarrassingly, Princess Letia calls me a hero.
I asked Princess Letia to move away for a while.
Then, it was Princess Letia who hated it with puffy cheeks, but fortunately, she went outside after my earnest request.
I said to the distraught Pastar.
“This is more than a sword master.”
Pastard finally opened his mouth.
“For me to lose in one fell swoop… it feels like I’ve become an advanced sword expert…”
“hahahaha.”
“It didn’t take long before the gap widened.”
I didn’t have anything to say.
“Is it because of that strange power?”
Pastard seemed to be referring to my telekinesis.
It may be correct to some extent, but it is precisely wrong.
“no.”
It is thanks to my efforts that I became a half-body.
Even if I didn’t have this strange power, I thought that I would have reached the level of a half-body.
“After that… it doesn’t matter. I’m just trying my best.”
“That’s a good idea.”
After coming to his senses, Pastar said goodbye to me after a few conversations.
“Where do you plan to go now?”
“Hmm… I have to wander around again. I am calling this the way to perform inspections.”
“is that so···. Well, I understand.”
Pastard suddenly put a hand on my shoulder.
“Anyway, you…”
Pastard’s expression, quite serious, gave strength to his body.
“The wind is bad. If the princess knew about the current situation, she would be very sad.”
“Kuhmm… that’s not the case with him. How else did you know?”
How did he realize the feelings I had for Ephinia?
“It’s strange if you don’t know that it’s the princess who visited you every single day.”
“That’s because of the curse!”
“Do something like that.”
After Pastar left with a light smile, Princess Letia came to visit me.
“Why is that?”
It was Princess Letia who didn’t seem to be in a good mood.
“Be sure to tell me about Cassias on the way back.”
Ah, the story of when I was Cassias?
“Yes… well, if you feel like it.”
And again the days passed, and the third day approached.
On the third and fourth days, no one else came.
However, for some reason, people who wanted to be taught by me came to me.
I asked those who wanted to be taught by me.
“How did you come to know?”
“He… the old man with the boy made a noise that he was going to receive instruction before coming up here. But after that, he didn’t say anything, so I got suspicious…”
The old man’s embarrassed face came to mind.
‘It must have been because of that.’
I sighed and put up a sign in front of the cave.
[People who want to receive instruction are prohibited from entering.]
