The Viscount’s Worthless Second Son Attacks With a Confession at the Academy

Episode 10. Mutuje (5)

“This is a waste.”

Half a bottle of Elixir worth more than 2,000 gold per bottle has disappeared.

I thought I could drink just one sip, but thanks to the fact that one sip is impossible to get an electric shock, I only felt better after drinking half a bottle.

Ah…. It’s a waste of money.

All the gold coins I’ve spent since I was born wouldn’t even be half the price of this elixir.

This is why communication is important.

The cost of not contacting you is about 1000 gold.

It’s a miraculous value for money.

But I might have to thank Maya for letting me go this far.

What are you sorry about? Is that all? Take care of yourself first.

I couldn’t even sleep well because my heart was torn apart by 3 consecutive combos.

If I had reached 4 combo and 5 combo, I might have jumped out of the window.

Just kidding.

Whoa. It shouldn’t be like this since morning.

What. I can’t get tired of being in a bad physical condition.

Three days from today are the preliminaries.

Then, after taking a day off, the finals will be held for another 3 days, and after another day off, the finals will be held.

You can only find out who your opponent is when you go upstairs.

Never inform in advance.

I think it’s a good system.

I think it’s a good system if you’re a high-ranking aristocrat who has a lot of money but isn’t confident in your skills, and might try to win by conciliating or intimidating your opponent in advance….

This is bullsh*t.

Already really high-ranking nobles receive all the matches in advance.

If you win this time, it’s not difficult to find out in advance who your next opponent will be.

In addition, if you don’t have confidence, it’s possible to change opponents, as well as to visit them in advance and make them suffer the aforementioned conciliation, threats, or ‘accident’.

The Rotten Ice Blast Academy.

That’s why it collapses when something happens.

It’s just that there are times when things don’t go wrong because there’s a principal who’s less rotten.

At least the principal was less rotten.

It’s not that he’s not rotten at all, but at least he knows how to keep the line.

For example, even if the bracket line is lined up, it doesn’t change the opponent?

If you have money and power, you would be treated like an idiot for not using such a system.

This is the bitter side of filthy power and money.

Emma approached me as I waited in the classroom, thinking about such useless miscellaneous thoughts.

“Mr. Nico.”

Thanks to her fighting party, why is she here when she should be next to Maya who is busy?

“Yes. Lady Emma.”

“…Just call me Emma.”

“If you want. Emma.”

“Lady Maya has sent you.”

Emma held out to me a small glass bottle in her hand.

Judging by the color, this potion is likely to be at least an intermediate level.

It’s much cheaper than the Elixir, but it’s still worth at least 50 gold. Do you want to apologize for the earthquake yesterday with the Righteous Stick?

“Tell Maya thank you.”

“Okay.”

Thanks for accepting it anyway.

I don’t think there’s anything to write about.

As soon as the business was over, she started to prepare to leave without hesitation, looking at Emma’s back as she left.

She put on the gauntlet thrown on her desk and lightly layered on her robe.

You’d better prepare the medicine now.

If you’re lucky, you won’t need it.

Come on. It’s a sortie.

***********************

I’ve been thinking about it since I came here, but I’m lucky.

I must say that the accuracy has improved.

“Your smiling face is here!!”

That stupid looking guy in front of me was my first opponent, the foul guy.

A foul guy who wouldn’t even be here if Maya hadn’t come.

The style of holding a sword is unusual.

A stable posture that can only come out when you spend a considerable amount of time training under a renowned teacher.

The one I was beaten before was the price of being careless without a weapon. I’m sure you’re thinking

I didn’t even know that was real skill.

“Are both sides ready?”

“I am ready!”

“I am ready.”

The person watching the referee still looks a bit older, but it’s very uncomfortable to talk in such a casual way.

I can’t help it.

You should give him a gift of courtesy.

If Maya hadn’t come that day, she would have been instilled with that courtesy.

The referee’s arm goes down at the same time as the whistle.

“Cha-ha!”

The guy rushes along with a sluggish spirit.

The wild boar spurts the ground with such power that even a wild boar can say it’s amazing.

It was too slow.

Poof!

“Oops.”

I took just one step to the right to avoid being cut down, and my posture collapsed.

Puck!

“Keuok”

It’s a perfect river blow.

I didn’t hit my liver completely, but it wasn’t a shock that a well-grown sandim could withstand.

As expected, Paul fell down and grabbed his side and shivered.

“Foul!! Stand up! Just don’t fall down that much! I didn’t teach you that!”

At that time, I heard a loud female voice from somewhere.

I shouted from nearby, but it seemed like a teacher who taught me to foul.

As if that voice gave her strength, Foul held her trembling legs and barely stood up.

I could have finished it without waiting, but then, wouldn’t that be fun?

I stood for a moment to give him time to recover.

Still, it looks like a well-trained body.

If time is given, recovering to some extent is not a task.

“Do I need more time?”

“… It’s okay.”

Foul is back in his stance.

To the extent that it looks more textbook-like and defensive than before.

“I apologize for my rudeness earlier. Sorry.”

Now they even apologize.

With a background as a marquis, a lump of pride with a very high possibility of becoming the next marquis apologized.

Oh my god, is there something magical about this gauntlet?

I instilled manners into him in one shot.

“Are you just doing it with your mouth?”

“I will come back after the fight is over. Because now is the time.”

I was even a little embarrassed by the guy’s polite manner.

Your words were polite. I was going to relieve my stress by taking a few hits.

Whoa. This is a planned change.

“I’ll give you strength. Please follow me.”

“What?”

Sometimes this good deed isn’t bad.

This is the first child to apologize to me.

We need to give you a minimum reciprocation.

Whether he wants it or not.

With all my strength, I kicked at him.

First, light and easy combinations.

Jab-Straight-Lead Hook. Aka 123.

Light one-two, strong hook.

Boom! Bang! Bang!

“Kuk”

Fortunately, he blocked them all.

I think he still has some strength left, so I’m going to raise the tempo a little bit.

This time, we stick a little closer and jab-straight-body jab

Strong one throw, light and quick body jab.

Boom! Bang! Puck!

“Whoop.”

Foul blocked a one-two, and his posture slightly collapsed, failing to defend against a body jab that came in the middle of the abdomen.

It’s an attack aimed at that, but it’s a little disappointing to see it collapse just like this.

“Am I going to collapse with just this much attack?”

“Aagh!!”

At my provocation, he screams and straightens his body.

As expected, there is grit.

Persistence.

Jab-Straight

Once again, it fires a light and fast one-two.

Maybe it’s because I’ve already seen it twice before? Even though he had the situation in his hand, the effect of the body jab would still remain, but he managed to block it twice and even counterattacked with a stab.

“Die!”

Your mouth is a bit rough.

I only hit two.

“Slow.”

Bend your knees and twist your back to change the position of your head.

That’s enough to avoid his stabbing.

At the same time as avoiding the guy’s counter thrust, the straight shot brushed his chin silently, just a sheet of paper thick.

Turseok.

The game was over.

********************

“I apologize for all the insults I have done to you before. I’m sorry. And…. Thank you for today.”

After the match, he bowed his head and apologized once again.

“Is the place you hit okay?”

“Still throbbing, but seems fine.”

I don’t think it’s such a big problem since I’ve got my circumstances in my hands to some extent.

“If possible, eat a bottle of potion. Or was it seen by the priest? It must have shocked the intestines.”

“Yes. Thanks for the advice.”

Still, since it was the son of a marquis, a bottle of potion wouldn’t be such a big burden.

“Nico…. May I call you?”

The experience of a guy blushing and asking if he could call me by my first name had the effect of making me feel dirty to the point that I wouldn’t want to do it again.

No matter how handsome he is, I don’t want to see him like that.

“What. Okay. Does not matter. Foul.”

Still, I can’t show it off.

There’s nothing good about saying bad things to someone who has even the slightest crush on you.

“Yes. I hope to win the next game.”

Leaving the last words, Paul disappeared with his teacher.

If you think about it, he might not be such a bad guy.

You said some crazy things to me, but that was just a rumor that had already spread so much in the academy.

Personally, I think that anyone can make mistakes.

Besides, if you know your mistakes and know how to apologize, you’re in the top 1%.

How many people can’t even do that?

By the way….

It was more disappointing than I expected.

Still, Paul, who I thought was above the middle rank, had only this much power….

If you’re not at the top, maybe you don’t need medicine and robes?

I was a bit nervous, so I regretted even drinking the elixir.

I wouldn’t have had any problems at all if I just ate low level potions and filled them up.

That’s how the first qualifying round passed.
