Episode 123 Start of training (1)
next day. Elester’s class time.
From the beginning, an uninvited guest came.
“for that reason… … We will be together starting today. “It would be better to introduce it in person, right?”
A woman climbed onto the podium, slightly stumbling.
One of the Ten Swordsmen of the Continent and the firstborn of the Lucid family.
It was Lucia de Lucid.
“Haaam… … Morning classes at this age. “It’s also terrible.”
A cloak embroidered with a roaring lion symbol was draped halfway over his arm.
It flowed down the side.
It was a scene that gave us a glimpse into Lucia’s somewhat awkward personality.
“Hello everyone. You know who I am without having to explain… … “How did you end up as a special advisor?”
A somewhat insincere self-introduction.
But the children’s eyes were sparkling more than ever.
This is because Lucia is one of the heroes officially recognized by the empire.
Just listing your achievements would take half a day.
There is even a chronicle of Lucia being sold on the market.
This was a passage that showed how high her reputation was.
“It will be about a month, but I hope I can learn a lot during that time. Of course, there will be only a few people who can receive my guidance. “I’ll only teach the kids I like.”
The children began to shout.
I thought I could be taught by a hero, but you’re telling me that you’ll only teach children you like?
It was natural to be confused.
Of course, I was also confused.
‘I’ve never seen a development like this before… … .’
then.
‘It’s a hidden piece!’
It was very different from the game in the first place.
The devil’s side, Vineth’s attack, and even the appearance of Lucia.
It was clear that there was a connected story going on from there.
And the fact that there is a relatively short period of one month means that it was designed to not have a significant impact on the future story line.
‘It means you have to get something from Lucia within a month.’
What can you achieve?
I was already looking forward to it.
“Then I’ll just leave.”
“Hehe, Miss Lucia. “Where are you going?”
“yes? That’s right, I’m a grandpa now… … No, it’s Elester’s class, so I’m going to take a break… … .”
“Hehe, what am I going to do by taking this old man’s class? “You should take a class from young people.”
“… … “It’s been a while since I was a young person, right?”
“The more we do that, the more we need to interact with young people. “Didn’t I teach Miss Lucia that?”
Was it difficult to protest against your teacher?
Lucia scratched her head and said. No, she threw it away.
“It’s annoying.”
“haha.”
“Oh, no… … “It’s not that it’s annoying, it’s just that I’m a little tired.”
“Hehehe.”
“I’ll take care of just five people. Just right! “It doesn’t take up much class time.”
“Hehehehehe!”
Is it an illusion? The energy felt from Elester seemed to gradually grow.
Elester’s easy-going laugh.
Lucia frowned and shouted softly.
“Everyone go outside.”
“yes?”
“Get out! You can’t swing your sword here! “Why don’t you hurry up and get out?”
Rumble-!
The children stormed out of the classroom. Of course, that included me and Luna.
Lucia’s voice came from behind us.
“Huh, can you see my feet? It’s something I couldn’t have imagined back then. Anyway, these days!”
… … I can’t believe I’m becoming an old man at that age.
She was an amazing woman in many ways.
A playground where children are lined up at a certain distance apart.
Lucia shouted loudly.
“When I pass by, each of you can show me anything you want to show me. step! “It’s just one movement.”
Buzz, buzz, buzz.
“They only look at one movement. Whether you make confident moves or not confident moves, that’s your choice. then… … start!”
Even before the confusion subsided. Lucia started to move.
The children in the first row brandished their respective weapons.
With the expectation that he would be able to receive guidance from a hero. but.
“Pass, pass, pass, what are you? Keep your wrist straight. “Then my wrist goes out.”
It’s such poor advice that you wonder if it’s even advice.
In fact, hearing bitter words was more helpful.
That was when we finished the third row.
“Oh, do you see this guy?”
It was Dyke. A vertical blow.
Lucia was the first to show interest.
“It’s good not to rely on technique. but… … .”
Grab it!
Dyke lost his sword in just two moves.
“Wouldn’t it be better to gradually develop those abilities? “If you try to learn later, it will be too late.”
“… … Thank you!”
Dyke bowed his head. A higher voice than usual.
I felt like I had come to some realization.
“Next, next, next.”
While Lucia was quickly passing the children, she muttered in front of Raimon.
“Ugh, the style I hate the most.”
“Well, my side is worse, isn’t it?”
“What does he say? It’s not even funny. You should never learn aggressive swordsmanship. “Because you will lose that incredible talent.”
Are you referring to Raimon’s excellent defensive skills?
If that’s the case, it means that Lucia is teaching seriously now.
It means that I saw Raymon’s talent at a glance.
The next person to stop Lucia was Alex.
“Hmm… … “He’s a strange guy.”
“yes?”
“Don’t go down the wrong path. Then you will succeed.”
Next is Luna’s turn.
Luna swung her sword powerfully. OK.
“… … pass.”
Luna’s head dropped.
Next it was my turn. As soon as Lucia passed her Luna swung her sword.
The first secret of Fleur’s clan.
Dance of the Steel Storm.
A sword cut straight and straight.
There was no effect or anything. No, I couldn’t even hear the sound in the first place.
Lucia stopped in front of me.
Everyone’s attention was focused. Because I ranked 3rd in the entrance exam.
What Lucia said to me was… … .
“Wow, you really need to practice a lot. “It’s been a year since the sword came down.”
It was an insult bordering on contempt.
Lucia turned to the next student. At the same time.
[Main Quest #5]
-Get your skills recognized by Lucia de Lucid, one of the ten swords of the empire!
To clear, you need to be sincerely acknowledged, not just a pun.
If you surprise Lucia with your sword skills, you will receive additional rewards.
Time remaining: D-30
Recognition of Lucia de Lucid (0/1)
Surprising Lucia de Lucid (0/1)
Reward: Swordsmanship (E) > Swordsmanship (D), 200 exp, 10 gold, increase in Lucia’s favorability.
Additional reward: 50pt.
Penalty: All stats decrease by 5, Lucia’s favorability decreases.
The fifth quest has appeared.
It is a ‘recognition’ quest, a type of training quest.
‘It’s an increase in the level of swordsmanship skills… … .’
By the way, I was able to acquire the [Swordsmanship] skill while taking Lein’s class.
His swordsmanship, which was grade F at the time, had risen to grade E after the fight with Vines.
‘Well, that’s not what’s important right now.’
Additional reward of 50pt.
This is a ridiculous number. Stat points that can be obtained by leveling up 5 levels.
‘Be recognized… … The conditions must be tight.’
In this type of quest, the level of the opponent is important.
This means that the difficulty of the quest varies depending on the strength of the opponent.
Lucia is an 8-star knight. Generally, it is only after Chapter 5 that you can ask for teachings. then… … .
‘… … ‘I don’t think I’ll ever wake up?’
Even if the snow is high, it is too high. Even with her modest skills, she won’t be able to satisfy Lucia.
But no crazy person would give up on this sweet quest.
“All done! I’ll go then. Hello everyone~.”
Lucia ran furiously and soon disappeared from sight.
He ran away.
But Elester only smiled happily.
“I don’t know about you, but Lucia’s guidance is very good. “For the next month, make sure you get taught somehow.”
A period of one month.
We have to find a way to win in it somehow.
* * *
“Ugh, it’s cold.”
A man tightened his collar tightly. A coat that was practically tattered.
But in the current situation, it is an extremely precious coat.
“In the past, the Rohan Empire was said to be a country where warm sunlight continued every day… … “Was it a lie?”
The man grumbled. A man moving forward through harsh winds.
His name was Darwin.
A commoner born in the land of the Answood Empire, he graduated from Annwood Academy with excellent grades.
A head of a family with a wife like a wild boar and a daughter like a rabbit.
and… … .
“Why did I decide to become a gutter rat…? … .”
One of the street rats who works under Charon. That was Darwin.
He was currently heading to Kalos under Charon’s strict orders.
‘How did this happen?’
Darwin recalled the memories of that day.
“what’s the matter? “Why are you making such a fuss?”
“All the rats carrying out B-class or lower missions are gathered together.”
“What kind of fuss is this right after returning from vacation?” … .”
The rats could not help but be taken aback by Charon’s sudden summons.
But they are well-trained litter rats.
The confusion was soon resolved, and the rats, who had not seen each other in a long time, dug up dirt and waited for Charon.
Oh no! It doesn’t actually dig up dirt and eat it.
A slang term that means sharing information with each other.
Anyway, it was a time when Darwin also enjoyed (?) eating filth.
“Captain is coming!”
chuck-.
I did not prostrate or assume a specific posture. They just kept their mouths shut and each took a comfortable posture.
Since Charon valued efficiency, it had been a long time since he rejected pretentiousness that consumed time and energy.
“Something came up that required me to go to Kalos.”
I think about 30 seconds have passed.
Rumble-.
A group of street rats escaped.
Kalos is the capital of the Rohan Empire that existed in the past.
Rats who don’t know the way, have personal reasons, or are about to finish their current mission.
They had escaped.
Since they couldn’t go there anyway, they fell out right away. Even if it were, it would only be confusing and a waste of time.
If there was important information to share, you would have said it before saying that.
Therefore, those who were not involved in the situation left without any regrets.
“We must check information secretly.”
This means that they must be good at disguise or hiding.
Rumble-.
Another group of rats escaped.
“You must be quick on your feet and have a heavy mouth.”
He must be a person who is good at running away and has lived as a street rat for more than 10 years.
After going through several processes, only two people, including Darwin, remained.
“I guess the two of us can go.”
I received a mission from Charon. A mission with unbelievable content.
So Darwin went on a trip as soon as he returned from vacation.
To the tip of the western continent.
He crossed the continent riding a dragon and climbed and descended mountains with a horse.
He crossed the swamp on his feet and fought over food with a wild boar that looked like his wife.
‘Lenner… … Your sacrifice will not be forgotten.’
Renner, a gutter rat who had been sent on a mission together, was hit by a wild boar and ended up in the temple’s care.
Darwin had no choice but to leave alone to complete his mission, and finally approached Kalos.
But no matter how much I walk and walk.
I couldn’t reach Kalos.
‘Honey, please bring some meat when you come.’
‘Dad, bring a teddy bear when you come home! ‘Get the biggest one!’
The image of my wife like a wild boar and my daughter like a rabbit came to mind.
Ah, this is the magic light.
Will I end up like this? … .
thud!
While walking unsteadily in a fog so thick that it obscured my vision, I collided with something.
Only then did Darwin come to his senses.
It’s a door. A door so high that you can’t see the end.
A gate that was the pride and specialty of the Rohan Empire in the past.
The ‘Gate of Glory’ was before Darwin’s eyes.
