The Only Swordsman of the Magic Academy

39 – Dad

*

“Boo, married couple…?”

It seems that even Sun-ah is at a loss for words after hearing such absurd words. This is where I needed to make sure I hit it off.

“Absolutely not, so don’t say such nonsense.”

-Yes..? Looks like I was misinformed.

I can’t see Sunah’s face from this angle, but I think she’s probably smiling now that her misunderstanding has been resolved.

-So, what about the hundreds of times you’ve kicked out lower spirits just by talking to them without signing a contract?

“That’s what we did.”

This is an undeniable fact.

– All the spirits who were thrilled because they thought it was their first contract because of you came back full of disappointment! What are you going to do?

Since Suna couldn’t answer, I stepped forward and opened her mouth.

“Then shouldn’t you sign a contract with Sunah to prevent that from happening?”

-Uh..?

“Seona is a talented Elementalist, but right now if you sign a contract with only one higher level spirit, you won’t be able to summon more. Then the lower level spirits that will be harmed will disappear and you can watch them from the side, so if you really care about lower level spirits Isn’t it right to sign a contract?”

Hey. I said it, but there is no dispute.

– Is that…?

The higher-level spirits are confused as to whether they think there is any truth to my words.

“Do you think… Are you going to let the many low-level spirits that will be harmed in the future?”

Perhaps it came out because the cut-off line was narrowly met with the necklace of storms, but if you miss this opportunity, it will take quite a while before you see the higher spirits again.

‘Even if there was a necklace, there would be no point in going to work anymore if a higher level spirit came out.’

There was no reason to summon more low-level spirits.

-No, that’s not the case…

“So… You know?”

They rushed incessantly so that there was no time to think further. Eventually, the senior spirit nodded and opened his mouth.

-Yes… I’ll make a deal. Give me your hand.

But the spirit was reaching out to me.

“That… I’m not the one to sign the contract with.”

It seems like I misunderstood the person to sign the contract with, perhaps because I led the story.

-Ah, I did. Then why are you so… Aha-.

The spirit smiles at me with an expression of understanding. I feel bad about something.

-It’s a good time. It’s a good time.

Her spirit stretched out her line towards her Sun-Ah, and she grasped his hand.

– I am a sylph. You?

“Baek Seon-ah.”

‘Sylpheed…? Isn’t that the name of the spirit king?’

This is a first-time case, but isn’t it possible that there is a spirit with the same name as the spirit king?

There was no way that such an opportunistic thing would happen, such as the King of Spirits coming down to the human world with his power limited out of interest and then blindly signing a contract.

– Do you agree to the agreement?

“Yes.”

At that moment, a strong wind blew up around me, and I activated my super senses and focused only on my eyes.

The super sense that makes you see what you can’t see made it possible to see the fragments of the transcendent existence that exist inside the sylphid, and the sylphid immediately turned its head and looked at me.

[You. Can you see that?]

A voice that can only be heard by me and cannot be heard by Suna.

[Say it with your thoughts. I still hear it.]

‘Are you the spirit king?’

[Yes.]

‘How did you get here?’

[I heard that something interesting happened, so I wanted to see it myself, but no matter how much I limit my power, the upper level spirits are the limit. But thanks to the child who received my blessing and the necklace containing my energy, I was able to come out in a narrow way.]

I knew that the wind spirit king was only driven by interest, but I didn’t know it would be like this.

‘Why is the contract…?’

[Seeing what you said, I thought it would be fun to be next to you. Even the lineage is special, right?]

‘Pedigree?’

[Uh. After the recent appearance of a monster named Edgar, there are even voices saying that the lineage should be eradicated once again.]

It is said that he wrote a myth in the human world, and even after he ascended to heaven, he seems to have a good reputation. How does the modifier mean monster?

‘What kind of bloodline…?’

[I can’t say anything about this. It’s like the sore fingers of the gods, so I blocked the mention itself.]

If even the King of Spirits couldn’t speak, it was right to say that quite a few people couldn’t speak at all.

‘You don’t intend to do anything to Sunah?’

Actually, my lineage is not that important. It’s more important how that nobleman treats Sun-ah.

[What are you looking at me for and saying that? I plan to actively help this child as much as he can use me.]

That’s enough. If you don’t have any ill intentions, it would be much better to make a contract with the Spirit King than with an ordinary high-ranking spirit.

[Ah, for now, keep it a secret about me. I will reveal it myself later.]

After completing the contract, the sylph returned to the spirit realm. Likewise, Suna, who had finished her contract, took her breath away.

“Haa… Haa… I just signed a contract with a higher spirit, right?”

‘No. He’s the spirit king.’

“Good job.”

Still, he himself told me not to reveal it, so I had no intention of saying anything. If you think that you harbor ill feelings for no reason, things will get messy.

I knew how to forcibly break the contract with the spirits, but there was no guarantee that this would work for the spirit king as well.

She grabs me like Suna, who was slightly staggering as if she was exhausted from signing the contract, grabs her telephone pole.

She’s limited her powers, but since she’s signed a contract with a ridiculously powerful being, she’ll be pretty tired.

‘She’ll just have to carry it around comfortably.’

“Hyukcha.”

She put her arm between her thigh and her calf and put her arm on her back and lifted her up in one go.

“Huh huh?”

“You’re tired. Get some sleep.”

With her height, I would be able to sleep with my head on my body.

“Isn’t that… Heavy?”

She honestly couldn’t feel much weight even with a 100kg dumbbell.

“Is it in season? It’s a bit heavy.”

Still, it was an opportunity for her to tease Sun-ah, but she couldn’t say it was light.

“Really..?”

I thought she would get angry like usual, but the reaction is strange. She looks like she’s worried about whether she’s really gained weight. Had she eaten too much lately?

“I’m kidding. It’s so light that I’m worried about it, so I eat some.”

Just by looking at his limbs, I was worried that he would be able to catch a goblin properly.

“Then why don’t you eat with me… I’m busy and I can’t see your face unless it’s training time.”

‘It was all done to save you.’

Because if I become even a little stronger, your chance of survival goes up.

“After entering the academy, we are going to eat together every day.”

There are only two days left until the entrance exam.

“…Stupid.”

I said the truth, but suddenly he makes fun of me.

“Why are you saying you’re an idiot all of a sudden?”

“Because you don’t know that, you’re an idiot.”

Carrying her with her non-ending her Zen dialogue, carried her down the mountain.

After having lunch with Suna and parting ways, I met Seoyoon.

“You said you weren’t training today?”

“Uh. Seoyoon, I think you need a sword that suits you too.”

She

Lent her iron sword to her whenever she did her training, but as soon as it was her academy entrance exam, she figured she should have at least one sword for her.

“Besides, didn’t you finish stabbing yesterday?”

“I did as you taught me.”

I am able to wield the essence to some extent rather than simply copying the appearance.

When I checked with Insight, I could clearly see the words [Eden-ryu Swordsmanship (Lv1)] In her skill column.

Considering the time I taught her and the time she trained alone, it took almost five times as long, but somehow she managed to master it.

‘I’m talented, but my teacher taught me.’

There was, of course, a clear difference between what the master of Eden-ryu swordsman taught me and what I taught.

On the contrary, I was even more proud of her for following my lack of teaching to this point.

‘But even if Seoyoon has this level of talent… How long will it take for the lesser kids?’

Seoyoon, who has just learned Eden-style swordsmanship, won’t be at the level to teach others, so I don’t know when my plan to train a magic swordsman unit will be possible.

‘New students should start by making and acquiring the practice method.’

By that time, she would have been familiar with the style of swordsmanship to some extent, so she thought it would be okay to teach them together.

“Others do wrong even if they teach me. You did a good job.”

He reached out and stroked her hair.

Because of her usual habit of stroking her hair, she naturally let go of her hand.

“…Yes.”

Fortunately, she didn’t seem to dislike it. Or maybe Suna was right when she said that stroking a girl’s hair is a national rule when complimenting a girl.

‘Should I try it on Yu Yi-seol later?’

I think it would be nice to give it a try if you get a chance.

As we moved together, we arrived at the workshop of inspiration before we knew it.

“Are you here?”

“Uh. It’s in a very corner place, but it’s a place with solid skills.”

I can say for sure that no one on Earth is better at crafting than Vulkan.

‘Because this nobleman is good at magic engineering and tailoring.’

It was safe to say that there was nothing he could not do in the field of production as much as his dexterity itself was good.

My daughter-

Listening to the familiar sound of a bell, I headed inside with Seoyoon.

But today, the sound of conversation was coming from inside, not the sound of a hammer.

‘Are you a guest?’

There are very few customers other than me who come to this store, but it seems that there is someone today.

When I went inside, there was a middle-aged man in a suit talking to Vulcan.

“We have made all the promised quantity here.”

“Yes. I will use it again this time.”

Seeing that he buys a lot of things of a certain quality, he must be a person from the government who is taking advantage of his inspiration.

But Seoyoon’s gaze at the middle-aged man in the suit was unusual.

“Uh… Dad?”

“Seoyun..? Why are you here?”

‘Huh..?’

Why is Seoyoon’s father here?
