I Became a Swordsmanship Instructor in Romance Fantasy

018. Zeke’s Sword (1)

next day.

cool eyes. An indifferent face with no expression.

‘Lord, kill me… … .’

Since dawn, Zeke had been surrounded by maids again and was suffering as if playing a dress-up game.

Since I had an appointment with Serena in the morning, the maids of Yoheiden who heard the news went all out without sleeping.

“Zeke. Today’s concept is a cool systemic man.”

“It definitely feels more like this than what I wore at the entrance ceremony.”

“Are you cool-toned in winter?”

‘what is that. What is that?’

Of course, in Zeke’s eyes, it was much neater than the Laughing Bell clown suit he wore last time.

A black trench coat, a white shirt, and a black tie, just like an arrangement of the military uniform he had originally worn.

However, even in this outfit, she couldn’t give up on the lengthy gold line.

“This is getting in the way.”

Zeke, who had accumulated a bit of proficiency from the previous painful experience, protested in his own way, pointing at the gold line with a wink.

But the maids didn’t even pretend to hear.

“Well, then the face side too… Shall we go along with this feeling?”

“Then, by lowering your hair halfway. This man, you can make people wonder what he will be like at the academy.”

“Whoops. I’m motivated! There’s nothing more rewarding than this!”

“This is getting in the way.”

2 pieces of unexpected conversion. However, they still did not listen to the back of their ears.

‘excuse me? Can’t you hear me?’

Zeke eventually gave up his timid rebellion. Just like a corpse floating in water, I left my body in a state of mindlessness. It was only after an hour had passed that Zeke was able to be freed from their clutches.

dump.

When the ladies-in-waiting left, Zeke sat down in a rocking chair in the dressing room.

‘Ha, it burned white.’

Before I even went out, I was already exhausted.

It reminds me of the time when I was tormented by the succubus ‘Chook’ Su, a subordinate of the Demon King of Jjam Boss.

Are all men in this world like this? It takes more than an hour to dress up every day. I respect you. really.

Romance male lead would be worse than this. It was an extraordinarily arduous, extreme job more than I thought.

smart-

“Instructor, are you ready?”

“Yes. I’m leaving soon.”

Hearing Serena’s call outside the door, Zeke stood up.

I tried to brush my hair out of habit, but I stopped thinking about the labor invested in this hair.

It was really cumbersome.

Zeke came out to Academy Street with Serena.

Serena came out wearing a more fancy dress than at the entrance ceremony.

However, even though she was dressed so beautifully, she was like a wooden doll that moved stiffly today.

This time I wondered why, but it seemed like it was because of yesterday.

‘I hugged her yesterday to comfort her, but thinking about it later, she must have been embarrassed. Actually, it wasn’t a big deal.’

Yes, the soldier’s salary.

Even if all of that was taken away, wouldn’t it be as much as the sparrow’s tears in the pocket money of Princess Joheiden?

On top of that, he was whining about not wanting to work like an office worker on Monday morning.

It was only because of that that I went into the room and realized that I was overdoing it.

‘Know. Know. I understand. Getting drunk with emotions at dawn, doing something I wouldn’t normally do and kicking the blankets. I’ve tried it too.’

When I imagined Serena kicking off the blanket at dawn, I burst into laughter.

“Serena.”

“N-yeah!”

Let Zeke call Serena. She replied in surprise.

“First of all, let’s finish what we have to do and then look around.”

“Yes. Yes. That, I do.”

It seemed that Serena, who was embarrassed, would need more time to calm down.

‘Sup. Well… … . Five. oh What is this? What is it really? oh god What happened to people day by day… … .’

Glancing at you.

Serena, who looked sideways at Zeke, even thought of what a princess should not do.

She thought that she had already become immune to Zeke’s makeup because of the entrance ceremony.

On the day of the entrance ceremony, even when Zeke passed out, I sat by the bed

It’s a secret that I took a look at his face one by one without blinking my eyes all day.

There was a little bit of beard coming up there, so I even shaved it myself.

And the whereabouts of the shaved beard is also a secret.

But today. It was so crazy that I couldn’t even explain it with words.

From before, Serena’s taste was a cold atmosphere with bad-looking ferocious eyes.

If the concept at the entrance ceremony showed a charm with a slightly warm atmosphere,

Today is the maximization of the advantages.

It is aloof like a northern wolf, but it is not harsh, but rather coolly restrained.

The fierce eyes add sharpness, making the heart shrink just by looking at them.

Depending on the day, the darkened eyes made him look like an intelligent handsome man full of melancholy.

‘This man. What should I really do if I go to the academy?’

gulp.

Her appearance was shocking enough to wash away all the embarrassing feelings she had for crying out loud yesterday.

Clearly this creates a problem. Undoubtedly.

In the pilot class, there will definitely be children who choose a minor as if they were mesmerized just by looking at their faces.

‘Can’t you put a bag of bread on your face and pierce your eyes, nose, and mouth… … ?’

Serena’s mouth was slightly salivating.

‘Sup. By the way, you don’t look very good today, do you? Well, yesterday that, that, the female general… … .’

Now, even from that expressionless face, Serena is now able to infer Zeke’s mood to some extent. She remembered Zeke’s confession yesterday.

Pudeuk.

teeth were split

The general who doesn’t even know her face.

Of course, I can sympathize with how anxious it must have been to have to watch Zeke like this for a long time.

Even though I liked it so much, the instructor’s personality probably wouldn’t have paid any attention to it.

He must have been in a hurry to hear that he was suddenly retiring.

There was no way, so he would have been forcibly exploited by using his position as a superior.

Serena is very, very, very little of her feelings. understanding? But even so, the method was the worst of the worst.

‘no. let’s not think The woman. when we meet later I’ll be sure to take the debt.’

Serena looked at his face again.

‘Sup. You seem very tired… … .’

The concentration of time we spent together was deep, but

At that time, I didn’t feel like I was enjoying myself because I was concentrating on my studies.

Serena came out together after a long time, and she wanted him to enjoy this time.

As she thought about how Zeke could enjoy this time with her, she remembered the ‘it’ that he reacted the most in the carriage.

‘Mmm. It’s a bit snobbish, but… … .’

“School, Instructor.”

“Well?”

“Hey, take this.”

Serena is like a young schoolgirl handing over a love letter,

He pulled out a heavy pocket from his bag.

jingle. There was a sound of metal clashing in the pocket he had taken out.

“This…….”

‘Stand, no way.’

My body trembled.

“I haven’t been able to give it to you because I haven’t been able to spend money since I’ve been living only at the mansion, but I said I’d give you a reward for saving my life.”

“……I don’t need it.”

The moment when Serena’s shining wealth, which had been shrouded in a veil, finally reveals itself.

Unlike the previous time he had willingly refused in the carriage, Zeke really wanted to accept it this time.

Hearing that embarrassing confession yesterday and paying attention to it, wouldn’t it be Kang-ho’s duty to refuse it?

However, the body showed useless pride.

‘Yumma! body! Just take it please! take it! Why are you rejecting it there!’

Serena noticed that Zeke was refusing to say it, but his eyes were staring straight into the money bag. It was so cute that he opened his mouth and smiled. He is really a man with a lot of hands.

“Instructor. The Duke of Joheiden is a family that never takes favor lightly.”

“is it.”

“Yes. Please do not take my life so lightly that the instructor saved it.”

“……then.”

“This is paying a fair price. So please don’t refuse.”

“……If you talk about things like that……”

At Serena’s repeated request, the body pretended not to be able to overcome it and reached out to accept the pouch.

The result of checking the inside with a sneak peek.

The inside was filled with gold and silver coins, so the entrance was not properly closed.

‘uh. uh. this. ji. really? Serena!!!!’

gulp. saliva passed

Seeing Zeke like that, Serena added a comment.

“Ah, of course, this is too lacking. Compared to the grace I received and what the instructor told me yesterday, my reward might be too small.”

“Oh, no.”

“As long as you are at the Duke of Joheiden, I will give you this much every month.”

“No…… Kkeuk… Yes… Go… Done.”

Even monthly! Salary Declaration! My affinity for Serena breaks the ceiling.

Jack’s eyes sparkled.

What unfolded in my head was a flower field full of blue violets.

With the flower garden in the background, Serena was sitting on the throne with a bored smile.

In his imagination, Zeke got down on one knee and kissed her instep.

‘A rotten body bastard, he built his pride on the fodder. Why, after all, is it too much money for you to refuse?’

Zeke received the money with trembling hands and put it in his arms.

He only had a pocket on his chest, but his confidence was on a different level, as if he were wearing a bulletproof vest.

It’s not a joke, if Serena asks for the Demon King, who is the boss, he can catch it at least once more.

After receiving something of this size, it seemed that I should go there first rather than my initial purpose.

* * *

Caang! kang! Caang! Kang! kang!

The place where Zeke led Serena was the street of the weapon shop.

The sharp sound of hitting metal pierced my ears from all over the place.

Because of this noise, this street located in a remote place away from the academy

It was a place where blacksmiths, who were said to be the best of the empire, gathered.

Hearing the noise, Zeke felt his heart beat slowly increasing.

pounding. pounding. two… Piik.

However, the heartbeat rose slowly and then fell weakly like a man with his head down.

“Tsk, your skills aren’t that good.”

“Is that so?”

At the level of Zeke, he could infer the skill of the craftsman to some extent just by hearing the sound of the weapon being tapped.

Maybe it’s because the empire has most of the neighboring countries under its feet, so maybe the weapon manufacturing technology hasn’t developed much either.

“Should I choose a good place to go in here…”

“Hmm. Instructor, are you looking for a sword to use in class?”

“no.”

Zeke shook his head with a disapproving face.

“then……?”

“Serena, I came to make a sword for you.”

“!”

rapier.

She had to choose the sword that Serena would use in the future. It might be possible to use it against her, who is not compatible with swords, but even a commonly made rapier is too much trouble.

So Serena needed a weapon that had the right balance of weight, hardness, and strength.

It’s probably a weapon somewhere in between a rapier and a smallsword.

Originally, he had intended to come after seeing his business first, but he wanted to repay her for showing good intentions like this.

I stroked my chin like that and looked around the weapon store carefully, but there was no place that caught Zeke’s eye anywhere.

‘Hmm. I tried to get in by just knocking, but there’s no one to look at.’

“Are these all the weapon stores here?”

“Uh…. Probably so… Ah! There was originally a weapon store street next to this side of the old city. Not all of them were moved here, so there may still be some that remain.”

Ramieli Academy expanded the surrounding commercial districts and signed an agreement with those who excelled in weapon production and brought them together.

“But the fact that I couldn’t come here means that I couldn’t sign an agreement with the academy… and my skills are probably worse.”

“But maybe it’s not a matter of skill. I’ll have to go there. I probably won’t be here.”

“If it’s not the sword you’re going to use, but to save mine, you don’t have to go that far!”

Zeke turned to Serena at those words.

“Serena. It was I who broke your sword.”

“eww….”

“I can roughly guess how long you’ve held that sword and how you’ve been training.”

“That’s…”

“So I have to take responsibility.”

pop!

Serena felt something explode in her head.
