The Only Swordsman of the Magic Academy

13 – Why I can’t stand up

*

She shared her secrets with her and before she went down the mountain, she seemed to have forgotten something about her, so she looked around and remembered what she had to do.

“Oh! I didn’t bring that.”

“What?”

I approached the body of the two horned wolves I killed. It was very creepy to see a wolf the size of a lion, with its head dropped and its eyes wide open, but I had to take care of things.

“Twin horns are more expensive than you think.”

One-horned wolves have the characteristic of storing most of their mana in their horns, but the two-horned wolf stores even more mana in its horns, and the mana inside the horn has the effect of becoming purer as time goes by.

It’s similar to a kind of elixir, but you can’t just eat it, and if you refine it well with other ingredients through alchemy, it’s an ingredient that can be made into a fairly decent level of magic.

I don’t have to bring a gold spoon that I grew up with, but it was more important to me than I thought. After taking the two horns like that, I wanted to take the magic stone, but I didn’t have enough hands to carry it, so I left it alone.

‘Ah… That’s all money.’

I had to find a dungeon, and I couldn’t afford to buy a subspace pouch to buy bombs, so I threw away all the magic stones of the F- and E-level monsters I had caught so far.

A level F monster’s magic stone costs 1,000 won each, and an E-level monster’s magic stone costs 10,000 won. I’m really sorry I’m going to die.

I could get 100,000 won for magic stones of E-level semi-bosses like the Twin Horned Wolf, but when there is no supply, it’s not as important as the horns of the Twin Horned Wolf, which can run up to 200 each, so I’m going to leave it alone.

“Yeah..?”

I hope you don’t look at me with a compassionate expression.

It looks like he thinks he is living in poverty enough to have to take care of things like that, but even if he doesn’t know about Seoyoon, who is from a conglomerate family, 2 million won is a lot of money for a petit bourgeois like me.

‘Perhaps it’s because they don’t know the price of horns..?’

If it’s a normal E-class monster material, it will sell for less than 200,000 won no matter how expensive it is, so you might think that’s the standard.

“Let’s go down.”

“Yes.”

She has a home of her own, but somehow I felt like her pitiful person and went down her mountain with her.

There were no more monsters with expensive materials like the Twin Horned Wolf, and I managed to reach the entrance by throwing away all the magic stones that came out with a mind to swallow poison.

“Which way is Hajun going?”

We showed our qualifications earlier, but as we descended, we exchanged our names again and found out that each other was trying to enter the Celestial Academy.

Still, I didn’t know what kind of monster would come out, so I refrained from talking as much as possible, so I couldn’t talk much.

“I’m going to Gangnam, how about you?”

“Oh. I’m going that way too!”

Because Celestial Academy is located in Gangnam, many of the characters in the story live in Gangnam.

‘Because my house was also a decent place to live.’

The reason why I was able to live well after being left alone, and how I was able to purchase bombs containing no magic power, which were only made in small quantities and the price has risen dramatically, are all thanks to my heritage.

Still, since I wasted this time buying bombs, I needed to earn money now. Coincidentally, seeing that he spent the money just one month before entering the academy, it seems like this is a joke of fate.

“Then would you like to come with me?”

This is also a fate, but if the direction is the same, there is no need to go separately.

“Yes!”

As we rode the subway together, it felt like people were looking at us.

Although she has a rather unique hair color of pink, her magical powers do not draw attention to her in modern society, where even her hair is often discolored.

“Don’t you think people are looking at us for some reason?”

“Jun Ha… Your clothes…”

‘Huh..?’

I listened to her words and looked at my outfit. The way I wore sweatpants, a t-shirt on top, and a coat on the outside, even if it wasn’t balanced, it didn’t fit.

If she had been wearing her magical equipment like her, she wouldn’t have been noticed.

Because of the magical power, the subway is faster, so I can get to Gangnam in 20 minutes, but that 20 minutes was too hard for me.

Then she whispers in my ear.

“Jun Ha. Sit here. I’ll cover you as much as possible..!”

Perhaps he could feel that I was embarrassed, and Han Seo-yoon, who did not sit in the vacant seat and yielded, felt like an angel.

“Thank you. Seo Yoon-ah…”

After I sat in her corner seat, she lowered her body a little and covered me, so people’s eyes were hardly drawn any more.

Instead, I don’t know where to put my eyes on her, as her chest, which is slightly smaller than Suna’s but definitely on the larger side, is laid out in front of my eyes.

‘It’s rather strange to avoid looking at something like this.’

Of course, since I’m always a confident knight, I didn’t bother to look away from her, and I talked with her while looking directly at the two moon balls in front of her.

Raising her gaze upwards, whenever I met her eyes, she smiled at me, and I wondered if my appearance was that funny. Just looking at your face makes me smile.

As we talked, I naturally remembered what her talent was like. Even if there was no secretary of the reverse sky, it was strange that he was acting like a dog, so I looked at it with an insightful eye.

I still remember it, probably because it was so shocking.

Talent▽

[Strength 7 / 10]

[Sense 9 / 10]

[HP 6 / 10]

[Intelligence 3 / 10]

[HP 6 / 10]

[Spirit 7 / 10]

It was a talent worthy of becoming a knight. Muscular strength and sensory talent, which are most important for a knight, surpassed the level of a genius, and he also possessed great talent for physical strength and magical power.

The mental power to back it up is also great, so if he was born around 1100 years ago, the knights who recognized that talent might have recruited him as a squire and made a name for himself as a great knight.

It’s natural that he couldn’t become a wizard because his talent for intellect wasn’t as good as that of a bumjae.

Still, he has a talent for magic and his family must have supported him a lot, so he succeeds in entering the school by using his magic knowledge somehow, but as time passes, the difference between him and other children widens.

Originally, I would become a wizard of a considerable level by raising my intellect talent to 6 with the secretary of reverse heaven that I was lucky to get, but that world line disappeared the moment I ate the secretary of reverse heaven.

‘Sorry, but…’

As much as I took away her talent, I wonder if there is anything she can do for me. Then, a thought popped into my head.

‘Isn’t it fine if I… Teach you swordsmanship?’

Of course, I wouldn’t go so far as to change the mana simbeop to the seniority method, give up magic, and become a full-fledged knight. It would be a denial of the life she has lived so far.

However, since the achievement of magic was fixed, it seemed that good synergy could be achieved if swordsmanship training could be added to it. Isn’t magic swordsman always romantic?

Thinking of her casting various strengthening magics on her body, casting enchantments on her weapons, and then shooting her magic and pulling out her sword at the same time, I was filled with romance, if not as much as I did.

‘Of course, this is only possible if she agrees.’

As her master did, teaching others swordsmanship has an excellent effect on raising one’s own swordsmanship skills, so it would be nice if I called her to train with her during her swordsmanship training time.

“Yunah Seo.”

“Huh?”

“Don’t you feel like you’ve been stagnant lately? It’s like your skills aren’t improving much.”

First of all, it’s like this. ‘You learn swordsmanship from me.’ That’s because I’m crazy.

“Yeah… I’ve been working hard lately, but my skills aren’t improving.”

She nodded her head sullenly as if I was right. She might be like this.

“Then would you like to train with me? If you learn what I teach you for about 3 hours every day, you think you’ll be able to improve your skills quickly? Did you see me catch two horned wolves with one shot?”

Excluding the time for me to rotate her practice method and the time to train her body with her Huron training method, I think I will have about 3 hours to teach her.

“Really?”

“Yes. We’re going to the same school, and it’s meant to be that we met like this, so I thought it would be nice if we could help each other.”

It was a good strategy for a good sister and brother-in-law, since you could get 5% of the stats she raised if you train together like that and become close and then form a relationship with the vassal.

“Is there anything I can help with…?”

Since I am in the teaching position, it seems that we can help each other.

“Originally, teaching others helps to improve one’s own skills. Also, being able to train with a pretty classmate is good for me. What?”

It is true that she is pretty, so she even added her lip service at the end. I think her build-up was a decent suggestion, but I’m not sure she’ll accept it.

Seeing her blush, she might be mad at her for daring to teach her classmate the subject.

‘Is it a failure…?’

“If you don’t like it, don’t…”

“I’ll do it..!!”

She suddenly accepted her offer with a loud voice. Seoyoon, too, must have been surprised that she had made a loud noise. She let go of her hand holding the stick and covered her mouth, but her train came to a sudden stop and she slipped forward.

“Uh…Uh…?”

Just like that, the moon in front of her eyes pressed against my face, putting her weight on me.

The soft touch and fragrant smell that I felt for the first time in my life were very irritating and my junior woke up without even noticing.

“Ugh … Hajun, are you okay? I was surprised and let go of her hand …”

“It’s okay. Are you sure you’re not hurt?”

‘Actually, it’s not okay, but…’

I couldn’t be okay socially.

“Yeah. It was okay because you accepted it well. Let’s get off quickly since it’s Gangnam.”

I definitely arrived in Gangnam. But I can’t get up now.

“Go first. Come to think of it, I have something to do at the next station. I’ll text you the address and time later, so you can come out then.”

“Okay. Then see you tomorrow. Ha Jun-ah!”

“Yes.”

She left the train first, and I sat there.

Until my son sinks again.
