I Became a Time-Limited Swordsmanship Genius at the Academy

chapter 47



47. Dagger

Large enough to look down on the ground.

A valley that is so cracked that it is difficult to stand.

There was a group of humans who infiltrated through the gap and a chief guarding the valley.

“G-Professor G. Gren, I think something is wrong here…”

“For now, everyone, don’t move.”

He was Stormwing’s parent and leader.

It was huge enough to be mistaken for a dragon when viewed from a distance.

If there were no feathers, I would have been mistaken.

– Kiek, gong.

The leader checked the squeaking calf with his beak.

The cub clung to the leader’s beak with a big smile.

Flutter!

– !!!

“Ugh!”

The chief checked something and raised his head and howled.

He checked the cub’s wounds.

As if you guys did it, Luna Elliot hurriedly shook her head.

“It’s not us! It’s not us! The bad guys! Yes, the bad guys came and beat your asshole! We just treated it!”

Wow.

As I explained with gestures, the gigantic chest swayed back and forth.

– Kiek.

As if the offspring of Storm Wing were doing the same, it clung to Luna’s leg and rubbed her head.

– ……

The leader was silent for a moment, then lowered his head.

He apologized when he realized it was a misunderstanding.

“Whew, it’s good. Looks like the misunderstanding has been cleared up.”

“Did you bring the brood of Stormwings here to show your gratitude?”

The students let out a sigh of relief.

Except for one student.

“Radia students?”

Ladia used her magic to float upward.

It rises in the air until it is eye-level with the head of the giant storm wing.

Everyone was frightened by his unstoppable and courageous appearance.

– ……

The boss stares at Radia quietly.

It was an act of silence, but it was a creature that was frightened by a huge existence that humans could not understand.

Since Ladia was also human, her trembling hands and legs could not be concealed.

Still, there was something I had to say.

“Ooh, boss. Do you know where this smell is headed?”

Ladia pulled something of hers out of her form.

Dark blue hair.

It was El’s hair.

The leader tilted his head and brought his beak to it.

Sniff sniff.

After smelling it, he raised his head as if confirming it, then nodded.

Flutter!

It spreads its wings and spins backwards.

“Oh, you know!”

Without hesitation, Ladia boarded her leader’s back.

G-Gren and Luna couldn’t keep up with what the situation was.

‘Why is El’s hair in Ladia’s clothes?’

Why??

The hair was actually a valuable item obtained when he secretly broke into El’s room, but the professor working at the academy had no way to know about it.

Still, wouldn’t it be great if the results were good?

Ladia smiled broadly and waved her hand.

“Come quickly! If you’re late, El is in danger!”

The Galihad student also disappeared…

Before I knew it, Galihad had died and disappeared, and no one was looking for it.

***

I counted the coins Ganel gave me.

‘If this is enough, I’ll be able to spend a lot of gold coins for the rest of my life, right?’

It is rare.

Strong.

There are many useful materials.

Those three advantages combine to make it possible to sell the body at a very high price.

Carefully going inside, Ganelle vomited several times, but there was no business in front of money.

Rather, I was able to properly understand what a money ghost was by wiping my mouth with saliva.

“I’ll return this to you.”

I passed the 200 gold to Ganelle.

“Yes, yes?! I tried my best, but this is too much!”

Ganelle, who had seen and suffered countless cases of pretending to eat, shook his head at his gold piled up.

“You have a worthless gold coin. Just shut up and take it.”

“If that’s the case… I’d be grateful!”

What a hot dragon!

‘As expected, even if you follow the dragon’s bread, money flows out!’

It was scary, but he praised himself very much for holding back and pursuing him.

An amount less valuable to me than that?

He tried to think of where they had met, but couldn’t think of anything.

“Ganelle. Did you find what I asked for?”

“…Excuse me, what did you ask for?”

“Did you forget what I said?”

My heart thumps and falls.

I begged for his hand.

“hehehehe. It’s not that of a customer… There are so many requests from our industry that I can’t remember them all with my dumb mind. That’s what I mean. Of course! Requests from important people like customers are given top priority, so it’s not too late to accept them. We solve it!”

“I see. Then tell me the location of Hwa-ta in the east.”

“In the east… A fire?”

Are you talking about Guillain?

There was such a request.

She swore to herself that she would eat her back from a student at Orion Academy and not even pee there.

‘…No way.’

Keruk.

The memory of that time comes to mind.

Dirty uniforms.

Matched.

Blue hair.

Matched.

‘The only thing that has changed is cutting my hair!’

Holy crap!

Ganelle came to a conclusion after going through numerous accidents.

‘A dragon disguised as a human!’

I had to hide the fact that I had put off the investigation.

Unable to hunch his head, he slammed him to the ground.

“Oh!! Customer! Our industry is so incompetent, it takes a while to find us! Especially in the east, the distance is far, and there are many people who reject us…!”

“Is that why you couldn’t find it?”

“…Yes. Sorry!!”

Keruk!

The gaze stabbing the back of my head stung me. It was so hot that it seemed like it would break through.

L sighed heavily.

‘I knew it.’

It was the expected path anyway.

What this lazy cheater is investigating. It would have been great to have caught even a trace.

I put my hand on Ganelle’s shoulder.

“Raise your head.”

“My, how dare I…”

“It’s not like the kite from that time will just end here, and there’s still a lot of time. I’ll give you a chance.”

“A chance! Give me an order, I will definitely do it!”

I spread three fingers.

“Three days.”

“Yes?”

“I’ll give you just three days. Find out within that time.”

“Three, three days?”

“Are you dissatisfied?”

“Oh no, three days is enough time to go on a spree with 100 female goblins… Oh, no! Three days! We must! We’ll find out right away!”

When I looked at Ganelle, filled with her life force, she rolled up her tail and ran away.

This should point the doctor in the direction of fixing the palatal artery.

‘Rather than that, what does Malacath mean by my death?’

It’s embarrassing. Meaningful words kept ringing in my ears.

***

Even in the tomb of the dark dead, night existed.

Birds and insects that are active at night make a cry in harmony.

Booung!

There were demons who couldn’t sleep even in the arena.

“L-sama.”

Zahak.

He wiped off his sweat.

“I didn’t mean to interrupt the training.”

“I’ve been waiting all day for L’s arrival.”

Zahak lowered his head. In his hand was a wooden sword for training.

“That’s what I used.”

“Yes. I’m sorry for messing with you. I wanted to do the same thing El-sama wields.”

“What exactly did you want to try?”

“A fast-swinging sword, heavy and strong… A very mysterious swordsmanship. What was it?”

What Zahhak saw was a combination of a quick sword and a bad sword.

Faster and stronger.

Simple, but more effective swordsmanship.

I gained a lot of experience and my body was at a high level, so I was able to bring out the talents of my body even more.

[Swordsmanship: 7 stars]

3 Steps forward to 10 stars, the level of swordsmanship.

The realization gained from dealing with Anubis and the physical rise had a great influence.

“That’s what you mean.”

I’m sorry.

Wield it.

It cut silently.

The air split.

From the perspective of the culprit, he would have thought ‘what is that?’

“…I tried. I put in a lot of effort, but it’s the first time I’ve felt so futile.”

“Don’t say anything strange. Your efforts won’t be laughed at anywhere.”

“I’ve already been hit hard. Look around me now.”

Zahak looked around bitterly.

Dumbbells piled up like a prison cell.

Heavy lumps of metal and special roider supplements were placed everywhere.

“He told me to stop doing crappy sports like that.”

“Is that why you were shaken?”

“…It would be a lie if I said I wasn’t swayed. How can I follow that path when my efforts don’t yield results?”

I laughed out loud.

“…What’s so funny? I mean it.”

“I never imagined you would talk about your talent. Take it.”

The famous sword that cut Anubis cleanly returned to its owner.

Zahak accepted it with an uncomfortable expression.

“Hold the sword. Maintain your usual posture.”

Once he realized it was a map, he hurriedly closed his eyes.

Opportunity.

An opportunity worth more than gold.

I shouldn’t have missed it.

As I closed my eyes and focused, a familiar wind blew.

Just because you’re used to it doesn’t mean it’s all good.

On the contrary, I really hated it.

Because the wind blowing next to him only interfered with his ability to swing his sword.

Huung.

Swings a sword.

Once.

“Again.”

Twice.

“Again.”

Five times.

Ten times.

One hundred times…

Keep swinging in the same, consistent position.

“Again.”

The words that came out of El’s mouth were the same.

In the end, it was Zahak who asked first.

“What’s wrong with me! It’s frustrating. Do you see anything else besides saying again?”

It thumped her chest.

El pointed at her sword.

“You’re getting in the way. Where did you get that sword from?”

“It was passed down from my parents.”

“You’ve got great parents. But you don’t have the eye for it.”

“…?”

Zahak, who had been swearing at his parents for a moment, was angry, but since he was El-sama, he endured it.

“I made it clear at the very beginning. Everyone has their own path. Even if you follow the same path as your parents, you cannot get the same results. Take it.”

Whiririk.

“Is this…?”

Zahak was taken aback when he received the short dagger.

Infinitely light weight. It was so unfamiliar.

“What are you doing. Don’t swing.”

I got angry at L’s words and actions as if he was stupid, and I drew them straight out.

“?!”

It was strange.

It was very different.

The greatsword and dagger that I have wielded so far are on a different level.

Do not get angry, hold on to your heart and swing.

Chew.

I can hear the curtains being torn.

The wind curtain was torn.

That was an obstacle that had been hindering Zahak until now.

Once.

Twice.

Dozens of times.

One hundred times.

Zahak swung his sword in the same way.

Even though it was the first time I touched a dagger, I handled it like my own body as if I was very familiar with it.

“What is this…”

“You are good at daggers. Practice with them from now on.”

“……Thank you.”

Zahhak bowed his head.

I was so moved that tears welled up.

It was really short holding the dagger, but I knew it without even looking at it.

This is really the perfect length for me.

Opportunities worth more than gold helped me find my own path.

“Then this sword must have an owner. Take it.”

I handed the greatsword to El.

“Didn’t you say that your parents gave it to you?”

“That’s right. But didn’t El-sama also say it? I just decided that it would be better for this sword to be by El-sama’s side. This sword will want that too.”

After pretending to bounce a few times, he accepted it.

‘I was aiming for this.’

When Zahak uses a dagger, he throws it away at his parents’ grave.

The fate of being abandoned like that is so sad. I have to write well.

Thanks to that, I got a famous sword and went.

“Wait a minute. More than that, what’s the name of this sword?”

“You mean the name of the sword? It’s a bit long… Novalis Marcherion.”

“No, what? Novelpia Maruko? What a strange name.”

“…The names of my parents.”

“It was strangely good.”

I grabbed the Novelpia sword and ran away in a hurry.
