Academy’s Genius Swordsman

＜ 120. Hill of the Four Seasons (1) ＞

#120

After completing their duties, Ronan and Schlieffen returned to the Islands immediately. It took a lot longer than it did to get to Dinhar because I rode a normal horse, not a ghost horse.

It has already been a while since I spent all my time on the horse except for sleeping and eating. It wouldn’t be strange if mushrooms grew on his butt. Ronan, who was angry for nothing, stabbed Sita, who was sleeping in her backpack.

“Mom, you too, get off now.”

“Bye!”

Sita shoved her head wide into her backpack. Judging from the way his attitude was, it looked like it was hot.

Even after leaving the desert, the heat of the south did not cool down. The barren landscape of short grass and wasteland continued. Ronan’s eyes, which were gradually becoming liquid, reached Schlieffen.

“What kind of steel is the groin of the nobility made of… Aren’t you sick?”

“This is no problem.”

He still had his back straight. Although there was a sign of tiredness, the characteristic dignity of the great aristocrat was not worn out at all. Ronan shook his head as if tired.

“I’m envious. When I was a soldier, I used to ride a lot of horses.”

“I’m just worried that the portrait of Ms. Iril will be damaged. Speed up.”

“Crazy bastard.”

Schlieffen took out a picture of Iril from the front pocket of his shirt every ten minutes and looked at it. Ronan, unable to see the situation, pulled the reins.

It was the moment when the horse that ran out like a shot outrun Schlieffen. fault! Ronan, who reached out like lightning, grabbed the picture of Iril he was looking at.

“Hey, this guy! What are you doing!”

“Khahaha, things that are originally precious disappear like the wind!”

“Stop! Even if the painting is damaged, I will not let it go!”

Ronan sprinted forward as quickly as if he had been a cavalry force of the Imperial Army. The contemplative Schlieffen pursued Ronan. Suddenly, the sword in his hand was changing into the shape of the wind.

“Byeungwoong.”

Sita woke up from the commotion and tossed and turned in annoyance. A haze in full bloom on the ground herald late summer. They arrived in the islands on the first day of their journey.

When Ronan returned to the Islands, the first place he wanted to visit was Separaccio, Secret’s office. In the first place, the reason I went to a foreign country like Dainhar was to receive help from him. Hearing the unbelievable answer, Ronan said with a smirk.

“What, you went on vacation?”

Jarudin was not in the office, so in order to find Separaccio, he had to ask another student or staff member. Asher, who was called out of the house reading a book, said hesitatingly.

“Uh, yes… that’s because it’s vacation.”

“Damn, where did the person who lives with five curses go all of a sudden?”

“Boo, I think you said you were going to the North. that you have discovered a new curse. He said that he would probably come just in time for the opening day…”

“Eight, I don’t want to be unlucky.”

Ronan sighed deeply. This was an unexpected variable. I was trying to get rid of Haeju as soon as possible during summer vacation, but I felt like I had to make a plan again. Suddenly, his gaze fell on the house behind Asher.

“Really, did you have a good move?”

“Yes. Thanks to.”

Asher nodded. The new place he and his parents moved to was none other than Ronan’s next door. When safety and convenience were considered as the top priority, there was no other place like this.

The director said it was made while Ronan and Schlieffen were on their way to Dinhar. Members, including Marya and Braum, contributed their strength. Ronan, who was scratching his head as if he had no face, continued.

“Thanks what. I couldn’t help you with anything… So, is Marya in the system now?”

“yes.”

“That was fine. Take it.”

“Wow?!”

Suddenly, Ronan shoved his hand into Asher’s pocket. Asher screamed in shock. Ronan pulled his hand out of his pocket and turned his back.

“Say my regards to your parents. I go.”

“Lo, Ronan. what’s this?”

Even though Ronan’s hand came out, he could feel a thick foreign body in his pocket. Asher pulled out an item from her pocket and checked it after Ronan had left.

“This···!”

Asher, who had turned white, tried to say something, but Ronan had already disappeared from sight. Upon hearing the news from Asher, Ronan headed straight to the market.

“There’s nothing wrong with having a lot of money. cancer.”

The purpose was to raise money with the loot from Dinhar. The presence of Marya meant that the top of the caravel was staying, so at least there was no worry of being hit by the price.

“Come on, come on, it’s ice! This is full of stone ice just frozen by the 8th Circle Ice Mage!”

“I’ll show you something! Five parasols and only one silver coin!”

Despite the melting heat, the buzziness characteristic of the market did not show any sign of subside. It was a landscape that contrasted with the wasteland I had seen for a month. While Ronan was in the midst of searching for the top, a familiar woman caught his eye.

“Eh?”

Ronan shrugged his eyebrows. At first I thought I saw it wrong. Although it was a loose outfit that could not be reminiscent of her usual appearance, she was recognizable thanks to her distinctive copper-colored skin and assertive body.

A woman was eating ice cream sandwiched in bread in front of a street vendor. The merchant, who saw her destroy all the bread, opened her mouth with her hands together.

“Hey, swordsman… do you have a bite in your mouth?”

“It’s a former swordsman. One more please.”

The merchant’s face brightened. The woman who paid the coin accepted the new ice cream. Ronan came closer and waved his hand warmly.

“Instructor Butterfly Rose!”

“Ronan? It’s easy.”

“I almost didn’t know. You wear clothes . . . very freely.”

Nabi Rose was wearing a white sleeveless blouse and black wide pants. The exposed shoulders drew the attention of passersby. Truly avant-garde, it was an outfit that might be recognized after two centuries or so.

“What does it matter? I just had to be comfortable.”

“That’s right. I like that kind of teacher.”

“I was just looking for it. Come here.”

“yes?”

Nabi Rose, who took a bite of ice cream, beckoned to Ronan. It was the moment he tilted his head and approached. 👌👌👌 The hand of the butterfly rose, which flew like a snake that preyed on its prey, grabbed Ronan’s ear and twisted it.

“Gyaah! Why, why are you doing this?!”

“Why? Do you think it makes sense not to say hello to your teacher before vacation?”

“Adeshan, you must have heard from Adeshan-senpai!”

“Words are meant to be spoken directly. It’s something that’s worthwhile.”

Ronan screamed for the mayor to leave. Judging by the force of twisting his ears, he seemed to be really sad. People’s attention or not, she didn’t care.

“If you want to make atonement, go to the Gallerion Coffin right now. Adeshan will show you, and he’s just focusing on training every day.”

“What, is your senior already back?”

“okay. I’ll be waiting for you to come, so treat me kindly. Did you know?”

“I see. Damn it, I’m leaving now!”

Ronan nodded quickly. At last, Nairoje released her powers in her hands. She opened her mouth while wiping the ice cream that had fallen on her chest.

“Anyway, I’m glad you look healthy. I can see that my skills have improved. If you bring a sword, you can even try a match.”

“Damn it… I even brought a present to give to the instructor, but it’s difficult if I do this.”

“gift?”

“Come on, take it.”

Ronan clasped something in her hand. Nabirose’s eyes widened. The black manastone that only came from Dainhar was glistening in her palm.

“Where did you get this?”

“Just take it. Because it seems like it will be in the future. Then I’m alone!”

“Wait, wait…!”

Ronan’s figure had already disappeared through the crowd. For a moment, I thought about activating everything to catch it, but I stopped. Nabi Rose, who was fiddling with the magic stone, laughed.

“… the hell.”

****

Ronan returned after selling ten Dainhar Manastones at the top of the caravel where Marya was. There were more than a hundred left in the house, but the top side didn’t have enough money to pay right away, so we had to be satisfied with that. It was quite a sight to behold as the Caravel women’s eyes grew as if they were protruding.

“…it really is a Dainhar Manastone. The question of how you got it from the superlative level is meaningless, right?”

“Well, that’s right.”

“Okay… Since you are busy on the way to go, I will send the payment to your house. Do you have any plans to lead the top of the caravel with my daughter in the future?”

“Dad, please!”

With a blushing face, Marya ran towards Duon. It was only later that Ronan realized that it was an invitation to marry Marya.

Ronan moved on after explaining where to hit it effectively to inflict pain. A luxurious wand was held in his hand.

The destination is the Gallerion Pavilion. It was the first arena where Nabi Rose’s classes were held normally.

– Kang! Kaga!

– Puff!

Even before entering the arena, a bustling noise could be heard. When I opened the door, I saw a girl fighting with two magic engineers. Ronan muttered in a voice mixed with admiration.

“How does it seem to have grown taller…”

Rumors that women grow taller quickly seemed to be true. Adeshan didn’t even notice Ronan’s arrival and was concentrating on training.

Every time he moved his body, his hair tied up like a horsehair was fluttering. The sweat-soaked back of his neck was shining white. Effortlessly avoiding the onslaught of the knights, Adeshan looked like a man with five eyes.

Unlike Ronan, who evades with her innate reaction speed and visual acuity, she was predicting the future based on her unique insight. Seeing the crossbow in Adeshan’s hand, Ronan frowned.

“Hmm… the opponent is not good.”

From the bow to the rope, the black crossbow was the new weapon she received from Doron. Even Ronan thought it was a very good weapon. As long as you know how to shoot properly, Adeshan’s ability to control the opponent’s movements and a tremendous synergy will be created.

However, this time the young opponent was not good. The mana of the shadows did not work for non-creature tech knights.

Whoo! At that time, the knight behind Adeshan lowered his sword vertically and slashed. Adeshan hurriedly rolled to the side and avoided the attack. Kang! Sparks splattered from the tip of the knife that collided with the floor.

“Keep…!”

Adeshan, who got up hastily, aimed at the knight who had cut down. He was still holding his sword, so there was a gap.

Aiming calmly at her head, she pulled the handle of the crossbow. The crossbow, which was triggered as it was, hit the magic engineer’s head. Quang! At the same time as a small explosion occurred, the knight’s body leaned back.

···thud! The fallen knight blew out smoke through his eye sockets and let out a mechanical voice.

[Check damage over a certain amount. blackout.]

“Good…!”

The knight’s movement stopped. Adeshan clenched his fists and called for delight. At that moment, the knight standing in her square swung his sword.

“ah···!”

I was so intoxicated with the victory that I never saw it. The blade had already come close to his eyes. It was a street that could not be avoided or stopped. It was a moment when Adeshan tightly closed his eyes. Kang! The voice of a magic engineer could be heard along with a loud metallic sound.

[blackout.]

“···yes?”

Adeshan carefully opened her eyes. thud! The staggering knight fell like a collapsing one. A single white dagger was embedded in the thin seam connecting the neck and body. A familiar voice came from far away.

“Senior, it’s been a while.”

“Oh, Ronan!”

Adeshan’s face brightened. Ronan, who was walking around, pulled out the Ymir that was stuck in the knight. He whistled as he looked back at the knight Adeshan had defeated.

“Did you shoot? I was surprised.”

“Ummm… that’s still not enough. You almost got knocked out.”

“No, not empty words, really. No one is doing this.”

Ronan pointed to the knight with the tip of his chin. Adeshan’s crossbow was pierced right into the knight’s eye socket. A gap as wide as a finger at most. It’s hard to hit even if you shoot straight, but it wasn’t just hard work to accomplish in this kind of melee.

“By the way, it was charred. I look like a naughty dog.”

“It was a little hot. Still, compared to the people who live there, he’s a snowman.”

“Okay, are there any injuries? Did you really go all the way to Dinhar?”

Suddenly, Adeshan pressed her face close. It was so close that I could barely breathe. After examining Ronan’s face closely, she backed away in embarrassment.

“hot···! sorry. It must smell like sweat…!”

“it’s okay. Do you have some time anyway? Did I interrupt you?”

“No, I was just about to rest.”

“Good for you. take it.”

Ronan nodded and held out his wand. It looked luxurious as if it were used by nobles. Adeshan tilted her head.

“It looks so expensive…why suddenly…?”

“It’s a gift. Because it’s a weapon that a smart person should use. Would you like to squeeze the handle for a moment?”

“yes?”

Adeshan did that. 👌👌👌👌👌👌 A seam appeared on the surface that was suddenly smooth, and the staff stretched long. Adeshan’s eyes widened at the sight of a steel snake-like figure that could easily jump over 2m.

“Chae, whip? Could this be a whip?”

“Okay, my prediction was correct. ‘You dirty pig!’ Would you like to say that?”

“Uh-huh…?”

“It fits very well. If word of mouth spreads, there are probably people who will come to meet you on purpose.”

Adeshan moaned in embarrassment. It wasn’t just her intelligence that Ronan had to whip her. The tall and pompous beauty had to wield a whip. Wearing long leather boots is perfect. Adeshan, who had been fiddling with the whip in confusion, opened her mouth.

“I don’t know what it means… but I’ll write it really well. thank you.”

“That’s Okay. So how about training? I’m also very tired.”

“Yeah, okay. But before that, why don’t you go somewhere with me for a while? It won’t take that long since it’s on campus.”

“ok? Where?”

Ronan shrugged his eyebrows. Adeshan, who hesitated for a moment, opened his mouth.

“… the hills of the four seasons. I have a story to tell you.”
