Wipe Out the Academy With a Wooden Sword

chapter 5



5. Decide

“Did you come to me to ask that?”

Cheolhyun Choi stared at me as if he was dumbfounded.

“Yes, I want to know if such a tree exists or not. If there is such a tree, I would like to have a wooden sword made from that tree.”

“A wooden sword? Why a wooden sword?”

I decided to use what Choi Cheol-hyun himself just said to me.

“Didn’t you say you weren’t interested in my situation?”

I can’t even tell you the truth that I’m thinking of doing a hunter with a wooden sword.

“… Yes, I said so.”

Choi Cheol-hyeon, who had been chanting softly, paused for a moment before he started talking again.

“First of all, it is whether or not there is a tree that can withstand the sword. Such trees exist. That’s probably a lot more than you think. Although I only know three things.”

There are many types, but three do you know?

“Why?”

“Those who know the existence of such a tree, and those who have it. Because each hides its existence. For their own benefit. Well, me too.”

Well, the fact that information is power was the same even now, in the era of hunters.

Choi Cheol-hyun continued his explanation.

“Greenwood is a tree that everyone in the know knows. The name comes from the fact that not only the leaves but also the trees are green. And I have the Millennium Tree.”

Millennial tree.

“I bought what was found in the upper dungeon. I gave it a name.”

Choi Cheol-hyeon touched the wooden nameplate on his desk.

“This is also one of the commemorative ones.”

“Excuse me, can I touch it?”

Cheolhyun Choi looked at me with his brow furrowed.

“What do you do by touching the nameplate?”

“I was curious.”

If you touch it, you will be able to distinguish whether it is a parent tree.

Because I have Mistiltein.

The elder looked at me like a madman, but nonetheless, he picked up the nameplate and handed it to me.

‘How is it?’

I asked with my thoughts, and after a while I heard Mistiltein’s answer.

[Evaluation result, top tree is correct.]

Ooh.

“Can you make a wooden sword out of millennial wood?”

“Is that what you really want from me? Wooden sword?”

“Yes. That is all.”

“I don’t think you like questions, so just ask what you need.”

The sharp eyes of the elder stared at me.

“Isn’t it for actual combat?”

“Yes. It is real.”

Since the elder asked seriously, I had no choice but to answer seriously.

“Take your hand or stock up.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Choi Cheol-hyeon measured the length of my hand and arm with a tape measure and started writing them down on a notebook.

“It takes four days. Come back in four days.”

“Thank you.”

I bowed my head. First of all, the most important business is over.

“Was my father really an ordinary blacksmith?”

Owns Mistiltein. It was a question that kept popping up in my head.

It was too out of the standard to be something my father had accidentally obtained as a material.

Cheolhyun Choi smiled at my question.

“Looks like you found something. As long as it makes you think that Hyukwoo is not an ordinary guy.”

Cheolhyun Choi shook his head slowly.

“I don’t know the details either. I just know that Hyukwoo wasn’t the ordinary guy you thought he was. Because he didn’t dig into the past. What I can say for sure is that he was a hunter who ate knives until he became my disciple.”

Hunter?

“That was also a hunter who was treated like a boss by a giant named the head of the World Superman Association.”

“My father never said anything like that.”

Not even once.

“You wouldn’t want to. Shouldn’t or shouldn’t. Anyway, your father seems to have lived an extraordinary life. You too live an extraordinary life.”

My head is spinning, but I still have one question to ask.

“Does anyone have a world tree?”

Choi Cheol-hyeon blinked at my words.

“Are you asking if you know? Are you asking me without knowing?”

“I think it exists.”

The number of myths and folktales found to have existed through dungeons was originally higher the more well-known the myth was.

There were few objects as famous as the World Tree.

“Existence does. I know who has the branches of the world tree. I am the President of Iroas Academy.”

I doubted my ears for a second.

“… Is that something I can just tell you?”

“Well, it’s a story that everyone who should know anyway knows. The president of the World Superman Association or the president of Korea Hunter. Magic Tower. Even President Athena knows.”

The standards for people you know are too high.

“Thank you for letting me know.”

I bowed my head.

Now I’ve asked everything I want to ask.

“Wait. Have you decided on a room to stay?”

I shook my head. As soon as I caught the goblins, I came right away.

“I’ll reserve a hotel room for you, check the text.”

Contrary to your fierce impression, you are quite kind.

Four days to receive the wooden sword.

“Do you have any good mountains to climb?”

“Climbing? Why, are you planning to ride a mountain while waiting for a wooden sword?”

“Yes.”

“Ha, such an old man… Go to Gamak Mountain. It’s moderately high.”

I bowed my head again and went outside.

As soon as I came out of the building, a text message arrived.

Peyton Hotel.

I went straight to the hotel, unpacked, and relieved my fatigue.

I lay down on the bed and closed my eyes.

And I went into the world of Misteltein.

***

Saaa….

A cool breeze tickled the bridge of his nose.

Mistiltane, a green-eyed girl dressed in white, stared at me.

“Welcome, Master.”

“Uh, Mistiltein.”

I brought up the business right away.

“Are branches of the World Tree necessary?”

Mistiltein’s power is activated by touching the tree. That is powerless to me

That’s why I came this time to get the top tree.

If it’s a branch of the ‘World Tree’, which is not another tree, you might get a lot of power.

“A branch of the World Tree, I can use it to bring out some of my inherent abilities. Those abilities are certainly tremendous power even by the standards of this world.”

Mistiltane shook her head slowly.

“But you don’t have to take that risk and get it. At least not yet. And what I felt while interacting with the Millennium Tree just now is that it could be of great help to the master in improving his strength.”

Mistiltein added lowly.

“Although that existence should come out cooperatively.”

The existence?

“What are you talking about?”

“Song of the Tree, that’s an ability I can trigger when I interact with a higher tree. I can call the person with the highest history among the ties that tree passed by into my world.”

“What is the historical value?”

“The influence it had on the times. Whether it be great achievement or notoriety. Whether it is related to power. The person inside the Millennium Tree was a person of high rank in all three respects.”

I was finally able to understand Mistiltein’s intentions.

“Master… That means I can make that being my teacher.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

That’s why the summoned beings have to come out cooperatively.

It was too abstract to predict just by listening to the explanation in words.

You’ll know in four days.

As I was organizing my thoughts, I heard Mistiltein’s voice again.

“Do you want to go to the academy?”

“… Why do you think so?”

“Yes, Master’s heart was pounding when he heard that the world tree was at the academy. I don’t think it’s because of the world tree.”

Is that what you hear?

Iroas Academy.

Athena The largest hunter training institution in Korea where most of the students who graduated from the awakened special school go.

The owner who abandoned me. Cha Da-hye seems to be still mad at me. And even up-and-comer Jin Hyun-woo.

Everyone will go to Iroas Academy.

It was not my desire to go to the academy.

“What I want is proof.”

Proof that my life is not wrong.

Proof that the sword I swung over and over again wasn’t wrong.

That will prove the value of my existence.

“If I go to the academy, I want to crush everyone.”

With overwhelming force.

That was my arrogant desire.

Honest enough to make your arms tremble.

“I can do it.”

Mistiltane hugged me.

Until the trembling in my body stops.

The next morning.

Choi Cheol-Hyun Choi I climbed Gamaksan Mountain, which I heard about from the elderly.

There was not a single hiker.

Since the appearance of the monsters, the number of people who go mountain climbing has started to decrease significantly after the results showed that gates occur more frequently in natural environments such as mountains than in urban areas.

And now there were no people except for a few mountains directly managed by the government hunter agency.

Rippling

The sound of the brook rang in my ears.

“Whoa.”

Blue sky. White clouds stretched vigorously.

Looking at the scenery at the top, my complicated mind became clear.

Unlike me, who dropped out of school, all of my jockey students, including So-Eun So-Eun, have one more year left.

1 Year.

I also become stronger during that one year.

Somehow, more overwhelming than those bastards.

“I will prove it.”

The value of my existence.

After descending halfway down the mountain, I picked up a wooden sword.

And then he raised his sword spirit.

Tsu-tsu-tsu-tsu!

Colorless flames swirled along the blunt blade of the wooden sword.

Falling dry leaves.

I swung my wooden sword at the fallen leaves.

Pee-it!

The fallen leaves were neatly cut in half.

How many more times did he swing his sword?

It was only then that I realized that someone was staring at me from behind the rock.

“You… Are you strong?”

A girl with light pink long hair was staring at me.

“Let’s fight!”

Crazy.

With that cry, the girl drew the sword from her waist.

Sureung!

It was clearly a real sword with a sharp edge.

Then it ran towards me.

With the corner of his mouth raised, like a beast.
