I Will Be the Only One Who Heals at the Prison Academy - Chapter 352
352 – The Most Beautiful Woman #7
352 – The most beautiful woman # 7
“…”
Take a deep breath.
Slowly.
Even more slowly.
Eventually, the breathing slows down to a complete stop.
Accordingly, the heartbeat also slowed down.
Excited, Excited, Excited-.
Two-geun.
“…”
When it finally feels like your heart has stopped beating.
I felt as if the boundary between me and the old training ground near this old school warehouse was disappearing.
A state of becoming one with the world.
Now.
“Right now.”
Sreung, flash-.
Swing the sword drawn from the scabbard.
“Subtype—cutting a squirrel.”
Sak-.
Whisk.
The scarecrow is cut in half diagonally from the top right to the bottom left.
But my heart was not satisfied.
“It doesn’t have the desired effect.”
Then Akasha, who was looking at me, crossed her arms and said something.
“… The name of the technology was confusing. At best, the name is Squirrel Slash. That’s a very animal-phobic and squirrel-phobic name. “I feel completely insulted.”
At Akasha’s words, Orleans, the dog squirrel on top of the guy’s shoulder, growls.
━Crumbling… !
He must have been angry about ‘cutting a squirrel.’
I made a light excuse.
“The name is temporary. It’s a technique for cutting down opponents who are as quick and agile as a squirrel. I really don’t like it. So, what does it look like?”
I asked Akasha about her impressions of new technology.
Because Akasha is a woman with some talent in swordsmanship.
Like this, she often asked about the sword.
In response to my question, Akasha just shrugged her shoulders.
“I don’t know. I wonder why she is developing new technology. Isn’t Arclight’s swordsmanship called the strongest swordsmanship of its time? Is there a need to develop new technology?”
“…”
“Developing new technology in the first place. “Creating a new mainstream and becoming a great master is not something that just anyone can do.”
That is correct.
It’s difficult to follow someone else’s path, but how difficult is it to follow a path no one has taken before?
Ttogak ttogak-.
It was then.
Someone approached me with high heels that seemed out of place in this sweaty training ground.
“Victor. “I want to surpass it.”
“Flora.”
That girl was Flora.
Flora said as she approached us.
“Victor would like to surpass the matriarch. He found his own new path. Is that so?”
“What…”
Can you say they are similar?
“The Arclight swordsmanship created by Cain is a swordsmanship based on the destructive power that comes from overwhelming magical power. However, I have very little magical power.”
To me, arc lights are like clothes that don’t fit.
This means that even if a stork tried to swim like a tuna, it would not be able to do so.
And, I wanted to expand my possibilities even further.
Breaking free from the limitations of game D&A.
It’s okay to say that I want to explore the end I can reach.
So, for some time now, I have been training in this way to develop my own skills.
Not a skill from D&A, but my own original.
“─Cut the squirrel!”
Zek-.
But it’s harder than you think.
“Victor, the name is the problem. Change the squirrel-phobic name to something else.”
━kk!
Is it really a name problem?
As I was thinking for a while, Flora burst out laughing.
“My father, the head of the family, also said that it was difficult to come up with a name. In the first place, the Arclight family was a family based on magic and divine power until my grandfather’s time—.”
Akasha raised one eyebrow at those words.
“Hasn’t the Arkwright family been a master of swordsmanship for generations?”
“It is known that way. In fact, the only one who has reached the peak of the sword is the head of the family, Cain. The original form of Arclight was white mages and priests.”
I guess so.
That is something I also learned for the first time.
It was when I was taking a moment to catch my breath.
“Me too…” . “Can I swing that sword?”
Flora asked very carefully.
He asked so carefully that my chest itched and I felt like sneezing.
“Each!”
No, I couldn’t bear it and did it.
Sseukseu-.
He asks while rubbing her nose.
“Flora, I can’t believe you can handle a sword. This is not a wooden knife for children’s play or a noble letter knife. A weapon that kills people. That is what a sword is.”
“I’ll give you 50,000 ren for the rental fee.”
“In the end, the sword is just a tool that humans can manipulate at will.”
Zek-.
I held out her balmung to Flora.
Balmung is the Arkwright family’s weapon anyway.
Flora is probably qualified to hold it.
“… Ugh, it’s heavy.”
But Flora couldn’t even hold the sword properly.
That’s because Balmung weighs quite a bit.
Sereung-.
Flora, who seemed to have never lifted anything heavier than a meat cutting knife, pulled out a Balmung.
“This is a sword…”
Wow-.
Balmung’s blade shakes strangely.
It began to flash with a mysterious blue light, and Akasha asked after seeing it.
“Victor, is it different from when you dealt with it? The sword began to glow.”
“It’s a magical response. Balmung is a weapon whose attack power increases as the owner’s magical power level increases. When used by someone without magic, it is actually a very strong double sword.”
In other words-.
This means that a weapon that is nothing more than a double sword in my hands becomes a truly famous sword in Flora’s hands
A blue blade that shines brightly.
Flora lifted it with all her might and struck the sword down with all her might from bottom to top.
“Hey!”
It’s a strange sound of cheers.
Sak, pot-!
The sword Flora swung cut through half of the scarecrow’s log and became firmly lodged.
“Whoa, whoa… ” .”
Flora is out of breath.
Only then did I also breathe a sigh of relief.
“Even though it is a famous sword, it is only a sword that is somewhat easy to wield in the hands of a beginner. And a prosecutor must be able to handle both famous swords and both swords well.”
Ssurre-.
Akasha opens her narrow eyes.
“Considering that, I just seemed strangely relieved. Aren’t you afraid that Flora, who is a novice at swords, might be better at wielding a sword than you? Dunjae guy.”
“No.”
… Actually, it’s a bit true.
Anyway.
I took the sword from Flora’s hand
And asked.
“Why did you want to swing the sword now?”
“Yeah… Because I couldn’t do anything except run away. “When the demon appeared, I couldn’t do anything other than being looked after by people.”
I guess so.
Flora seemed to be keenly aware of her own shortcomings.
I said that for Flora.
“Each person has different talents and aptitudes. Flora, you probably have something you’re good at, so you don’t have to be too hasty.”
“What am I good at? “What is my specialty?”
“…”
First of all, I said this to comfort you.
Actually, when I thought about what Flora would be good at, I couldn’t think of anything in particular.
“Please tell me quickly…” ” !”
“I took a good nap. Have a good walk. I also enjoy tea time.”
“Well, what kind of specialty is that?”
Flora seemed a little disappointed.
But I said it with all my sincerity.
I couldn’t even take a nap.
I don’t even know how to take a walk.
I wasn’t even used to having time like tea time.
A languid afternoon of healing that I wish for.
Flora was already an expert at that.
Of course.
Although she didn’t seem to admit it to herself.
“Victor, I was a fool to ask you.”
Swish-.
Flora turned her head and walked away.
Akasha, who was in the same grade as Flora, also followed in Flora’s footsteps.
“It looks like the lady in the greenhouse is going to have an accident like that. “I will watch.”
Is this someone who is likely to cause an accident?
I can think of at least one person right away.
* * *
Zek-.
I entered the women’s dormitory.
Of course, secretly using wall penetration.
Through it, I entered Enio’s room.
Enio’s room was dark with the curtains drawn even in broad daylight, so it was like a dark room.
Since I couldn’t see anything, I fumbled around with my hand and couldn’t help it even if I irresistibly touched Enio’s chest while he was lying on the bed.
So.
Which area am I touching?
I’m not sure if it’s because it’s covered with a blanket or because it’s mostly flat.
“Enio, wake up.”
Zek-.
I rolled up the blanket.
Then, something that was curled up wriggled even more.
“Ugh, what is it?”
“It’s me.”
“Rain, Victor… !?”
Enio was very surprised.
The guy was wearing a red silk negligee, but it seemed like he wasn’t wearing anything underneath because his skin was showing through.
Soon the shadow wraps around the body like stockings or tights.
“What happened! How did you get in?”
“You are asking the obvious. “I sneaked in confidently.”
“… Victor, you are becoming more and more bold in breaking the fortress rules.”
“This is my evolution.”
“… Is it? Anyway, what’s going on in my room?”
“Enio, you were absent today too. He didn’t even come to the club room. Anyone can tell that you are feeling depressed. So I came and saw it.”
Squeak, click-.
Enio turned on the lights.
The light hanging from the ceiling reflects off Enio’s white face and is dazzling.
“So, is that the end of what you have to say?”
“No.”
Zek-.
I handed the paper to Enio.
“Scoring table for the 2nd and 3rd final rounds of the Miss Ludens Contest… ?”
“This is the scorecard I had with me. Originally, it wasn’t supposed to be made public. “I will show it to you.”
“What is it, Victor? Are you saying you want to treat me special now? I’m happy, but at the same time feeling a little upset. “If I don’t have these things, I look like someone who can’t win.”
Enio seemed to have misunderstood something.
Of course, his words she was grunting, but his eyes and hands she were honestly flipping through the scorecard.
Soon Enio frowned.
“Victor, what happened to ‘this part’? I’d like some clarification. This standard is written on the scoring sheet. This is it.”
Enio is smiling with his eyes narrowed.
But somehow, it looks like tendons are sticking out from that forehead.
“Did you see that?”
“I have no choice but to see it. “It’s written in big letters like this.”
After-.
I sighed softly.
And then he explained.
“Originally, in the third final round, a dance was scheduled among the remaining contestants. “It was to determine the last person based on the participants’ skills.”
“Yes, I vaguely knew that. Why is that?”
“But in the current situation, it would be foolish to compete against each other and cause loss of combat power. So, the contest judges came to a conclusion after much discussion.”
“If it’s a conclusion…”
“Mine. 100 points are added to each person who defeats a demon. “Is there any other element in Ludens that can satisfy beauty as much as strength?”
Enio responded to my explanation as if he understood something.
“In other words. That means someone could knock down my brother while I’m procrastinating. Victor, you’re stricter than I thought. Without even giving people time to be depressed.”
“It wasn’t really my intention.”
“Brother… , I will defeat Aidan. Because I can’t leave it to other guys. Even if something like this didn’t happen, I tried to do that. But this is what I care about! What I want to talk about is here, not the Mine part!”
“What is it?”
“Mana size G or higher is 100 out of 100? F is 90, D is 80, C is 70, B is a failure… !?”
That’s what Enio wanted to say.
“It’s okay, Enio. Even if you fail, you can raise your score by defeating a demon or elsewhere—.”
“Well, it’s not a mistake! Really, Victor! It’s not good!”
Paaat-.
Enio stood on end.
Then he hit my stomach with his fist and it hurt more than I thought.
“Ugh.”
You should never talk about your breasts to Enio.
“Victor, you’re so mean! Failure… No it’s not? “I got at least 70 points, right?”
“Ugh…”
I felt like I would be skewered by Shadow Spike if I stayed like this, so I had to leave the dorm room in a hurry.
“Huh-.”
I was relieved only after I got out of the women’s dormitory and ran to the alley.
Tingling-.
No, the back of my neck still tingles.
Did the enraged Enio come after me to destroy me?
It was when I looked back.
Sarrr-.
The first thing I noticed was the light cream-colored short hair.
White skin and gold eyes.
She must have been around 25 years old.
She was quite a beauty.
From noble mtl dot come
The corners of the eyes are drooped, the eyes are drowsy, and there are tear spots on the mouth.
“I found it, Balmung… I finally found it. My flame. My dragon slayer. My own immortality… ! It’s been a long time… ! It took a long time, but we are finally able to meet again… !”
… Who are you?
I don’t know who it was, but it seemed unusual for his body to be shaking.
Quite a beauty.
If there was a woman like that, there’s no way I wouldn’t know about it.
Pabat-.
At that time, the woman attacked me.
It was a leap of speed so fast that it caused a backlash.
“What─.”
Getting stabbed… !?
Swoop… !?
It was a time when I was shocked by that thought.
What touched my body was not a knife, but something voluptuous and soft.
It seems, in some ways, more threatening than a sword.
“I finally met you again.”
“…”
“Could it be that you don’t remember me? Huh?”
“… ?”
“It’s me! Your one and only lover! “You are Kriemhild, the one and only woman who always told you she was the most beautiful in the world!”
