Bullied but Popular - Chapter 160



160 – Sylvia Rochelle

After the physical training, the last remaining jjaturi time.

“The rest is free training. Let each of you do the training that suits you.”

At the professor’s words, Sylvia turned her head and looked at Aren.

‘Can I go now?’

I don’t know what timing to go.

When Sylvia hesitated, Aren’s gaze turned to her.

‘…! Oh, it comes.’

Sylvia was nervous inside and slowly turned her head towards him.

Aren, who met her eyes, pointed to the corner of the gymnasium and said.

“Let’s do it over there. There are no people there.”

“huh.”

“… however.”

Aren looked behind him and said in an annoyed voice.

“Why again? Do you want to be hit more?”

“Never mind. I’m just looking around.”

Luke said in an emotionless voice.

In that voice, Aren sensed a subtle difference and spoke mockingly.

“Ah~ Are you pissed off?”

“……”

“Well, if you don’t have a gift, it’s embarrassing to say confidently that you’ll win, and then get kicked out.”

“……”

Luke didn’t answer, but his expression showed displeasure.

Aren looked at his expression and said sarcasticly.

“Well, if you want to see it, watch it as much as you want. Even then, you won’t be able to hold back that much.”

“Okay, so stop talking and go. I’ll see how long that composure lasts.”

“I’ll see you for a long time? Poor bastard.”

Aren shook his head and moved on.

‘sh*t.’

Luke also frowned and followed him.

So, Aren and Silvia moved to the corner of the gymnasium and started training right away.

“Make the wind.”

“huh.”

At Aren’s words, Sylvia immediately made a manasword.

Rochelle-style aerials

wow oh oh

When the wind formed on Sylvia’s sword, Aren immediately approached her and applied a buff.

Unlock Coastal Art

Whoo oh oh oh!

‘This is it!’

You have to get used to this feeling.

Watching her concentrate for a moment, Aren said while making a manasod out of his wooden sword.

“come in.”

“…!? Ha, but it’s time to come?”

Luke, who grasped the situation at Sylvia’s words, spoke in a calm voice.

“It’s okay, so go full force.”

“huh?”

“You said it before.”

Luke said, glaring at Aren as if he didn’t like it.

“Even if you and I attack together, it won’t work for him.”

“……”

Sylvia immediately raised her sword and glared at Aren.

Aren also used the coast right there.

coastal waters

“Come in with all your might. Don’t regret it.”

“… okay.”

Silvia jumped forward at Aren’s words.

Rochelle High Quick

Fain!

Sylvia, who flew fast like a bird, threw a stab at Aren.

Aren, on the other hand, calmly avoided it.

Huung

‘yet!’

Sylvia started the next exercise right away.

Rochelle step-up

Sylvia’s new model suddenly speeds up to twice as fast.

Her attack speed doubled to match him, but Aren calmly avoided them all.

“…!?”

“Tsk.”

While Sylvia looked at Aren as if surprised, Luke started observing Aren clicking his tongue as if he had expected it.

At that time, Aren, who was just dodging the attack, swung his sword for the first time.

coastal current inertia

sh*t sh*t sh*t

“…!?”

Surprisingly, sword energy was released from Aren’s mana sword.

‘But why in the air…?’

Seeing Aren wielding a sword in the air that had nothing to do with it, Sylvia’s sword skill began to turn in a different direction, terrifyingly surprised.

“What!?”

bang! bang! bang!

While embarrassed, Sylvia blocks it accurately.

But on the inside, I couldn’t help but be astonished.

‘Ranged with a mana sword? Judo attack?’

“Are you relaxed?”

“…!?”

Seeing Sylvia lost in thought, Aren quickly approached and swung his sword.

Tristan style smash

Daang!

“Ouch!?”

Dadadang

The shock of moving inside made Sylvia loose her grip and let go of the wooden sword.

‘What, what?’

What am I fighting for?

Looking at Sylvia who couldn’t come to her senses, Aren said shyly.

“What are you doing now?”

“Ugh…”

“Even if I give you a buff, can’t you do that much?”

“……”

Sylvia gritted her teeth at Aren’s cold words, raised her wooden sword again, and straightened her upper body.

Seeing her like that, Aren once again raised his wooden sword and said.

“It’s a waste to put a buff on you. I can’t handle it properly, so what do I do with it?”

“……”

Sylvia said nothing.

It’s embarrassing, but it’s because what he said is true.

‘I lost to the mana sword…’

While he used the aura sword, Aren fought only with the mana sword from beginning to end.

Even so, she was not even a match for Aren.

Seeing her still, Aren moved again.

“First, let’s see your skills. Other people seem to say you’re strong, but you want the facts? I’ll do it for you.”

“Eww… go ahead.”

Life flickers in Sylvia’s eyes.

***

After all the classes were over, Sylvia was lying on her bed in her dormitory, stunned.

‘lost……’

It was a rout.

No, the word rout was a bit strange. In my opinion, he said to Aren…

‘I couldn’t even be an opponent.’

It was not the time to be obsessed with auras or what.

This is because she lost to Aren in pure swordsmanship.

No, it was something different from pure swordsmanship.

‘How can he be so strong?’

The swordsmanship, no, the movement itself is strangely efficient.

Evasion was, of course, minimal movement, and attack was full of loopholes, so it felt strangely threatening to the subject of the attack.

‘Am I weak?’

The slump comes again.

And after the duel, the words Aren left behind.

(You deserve to die. I’m sorry. You’re weak.)

“Ah-!”

At Aren’s words that suddenly came to mind, Sylvia started to jump out of bed in anger.

“Don’t be funny!! You bastard! You XXXX! I’m weak!? You’re behind me, you XXXX!!!”

puck! puck! puck! puck!

A stuffed rabbit on her bed was acting as a punching bag, pitifully.

A rabbit for such a long time? Having beaten Sylvia, she got up and started to change into sportswear.

“It’s special training again from today.”

I couldn’t stay still like this.

She had already completed the amount of training today, but her fighting spirit was burning to such an extent that even that seemed insufficient.

As soon as she leaves the dormitory, Sylvia heads straight to the boys’ dormitory.

Thanks to this, the male students’ eyes turned to her, but Sylvia didn’t care and arrived at her destination.

“… Whoa.”

Sylvia took a deep breath as if she was nervous for a moment, then slowly raised her hand.

smart

Sylvia knocked on a male student’s room and waited for the door to open.

And soon the door opens and Garou comes out from inside.

“…! Sylvia?”

Garou called out to her in surprise.

I thought he must have not been angry yet, but he was surprised that she came to him first.

Seeing Garou like that, Sylvia hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth with difficulty.

“…sorry before.”

“Uh, huh?”

Sylvia lowered her head and said.

“Sorry, the beating was a bit harsh. Are you mad?”

“Oh no…?”

At Garou’s words, Sylvia raised her head and got to the point.

“I have a request.”

“ask?”

“Yes, let’s train together.”

“Huh? Right now? I’m on probation…”

“Let’s just do it in the backyard of the dorm. You don’t like it? Then we can’t…”

At Sylvia’s words, Garou shook his head with a bewildered expression.

In response, Sylvia immediately turned around and moved on.

“I’ll be waiting for you. Change your clothes and come out.”

“Yes…”

Garou went back into the room and started to change clothes.

“what?”

Normally, she wouldn’t have gotten angry easily, but it’s strangely awkward to come to her first and apologize.

“What… is that a good thing?”

Garou immediately smiled, changed his clothes, and went out to the backyard.

There, Sylvia was already wielding a wooden sword, so Garou also hurriedly approached.

“I’m here.”

“Let’s start right away.”

Sylvia burns up her fighting spirit as soon as she arrives.

Seeing her like that, Garou smiled lightly and raised a wooden sword.

“Garo, do it with all your might.”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

‘lie.’

Sylvia denied it inwardly.

Garou always said that, but he never showed his full strength.

(You deserve to die. I’m sorry. You’re weak.)

Crying

The hallucination of Aren heard once again.

Sylvia immediately raised her mana.

Rochelle-Style Aerial, Tempest, High Quick

Whoa oh oh oh! Fain!

Garou hurriedly raised his sword at the sight of Sylvia suddenly running at great speed.

f*ck!

“Ugh!?”

‘Isn’t it coming out too hard from the beginning?’

While Garou was thinking about that, her full-scale attack began.

Rochelle Cult

“…!?”

“Garo! Go with full force!”

A storm raged from Sylvia’s sword.

Kwaaang!

***

“Huh! Heh! Heh! Heh! Heh!”

“Kheuk! Whoop! Whoop!”

After the sparring, Garou and Sylvia were lying side by side on the floor, gasping for breath.

“Poetry, Sylvia, Heo Eok, are you okay?”

“Whoop, whoop, whoop, it’s okay.”

Sylvia nodded her head with difficulty and caught her breath again.

Garou, who had regained his composure a bit, looked at Sylvia with amazement and said.

“What happened?”

“huh?”

“You… haven’t you become ridiculously strong?”

“…?”

Sylvia puts on an expression that doesn’t know what she’s talking about.

Seeing her face like that, Garou said as if it was difficult.

“You were really scared right now? I honestly thought I was losing.”

“… okay?”

“Uh, what is it? How does a person become so strong in just a few days?”

This time, even Garou tilted his head as if he didn’t understand.

Garou’s reaction made Sylvia feel an unknown sense of accomplishment.

‘I’m serious.’

That expression of Garou, that tone of voice.

Garou was speaking with sincerity now.

Unlike usual, I really thought that I had become stronger.

‘But I can’t do that, right?’

The sword of Aren that comes to mind once again.

That strange and anomalous sword seemed impossible to defeat right now.

“Garou.”

“huh?”

“Do you know Aren Difus?”

“Ah~ that High Human?”

Garou said as if he remembered.

“Isn’t that the guy next to you at that time? I also greeted briefly.”

“How did you look?”

“what?”

“Did you look strong?”

“Huh? Well…? I’m not sure?”

No matter how much Garou said he was an Aura Knight, he couldn’t accurately grasp the opponent’s state just by looking at him.

“Well, isn’t it strong? Rumor has it that if you use a Gift, you won’t be defeated even by an Aura Knight?”

“Yeah… strong.”

Sylvia nodded deeply and said.

Garou asked him,

“What is it? Have you ever had sparring?”

“Yeah, I did it today.”

“Really? How was it?”

“It was incredibly strong.”

“… huh?”

The expression is strange.

Normally, she would have just expressed that she was very strong, but this is the first time I have heard the expression incredibly strong.

“How strong are you to say that?”

Sylvia frowned at Garou’s question and spoke in a serious tone.

“I don’t know.”

“Huh? What are you talking about?”

“I couldn’t even compete.”

“…!?”

At Sylvia’s words, Garou made a surprised expression and asked again.

“You said you couldn’t even compete? You?”

“Yeah. He just played with me.”

“…!?”

Garou is surprised by her words once again.

“What, what? How much of a difference did it make?”

“……”

At Garou’s words, Sylvia looked into his eyes and said.

“One thing’s for sure… You’re gasping for breath against me, but he didn’t breathe hard and dealt with me leisurely.”

“……”

Garou’s expression went beyond surprise and hardened into astonishment.
