234. Gulliver’s Travels (3)
‘It seems like my body’s performance has improved a lot…?’
I thought to myself as I held the sword to Instructor Elena’s neck.
‘Director Lina’s library quest is a fairly advanced mission…’
Of course, not the real enemy.
At this level, it was only at the level of minor mobs.
Still, I thought we would have to split at least two or three sums.
They succeeded in subduing him without even clashing swords.
This time, I got 3 stars by killing a fire dragon and reached SS level in swordsmanship.
Immediately after returning to the academy, I checked my skills to some extent with the help of my teacher and training director.
However, it doesn’t seem like your body movements are much more natural now than you noticed back then?
‘Is it because you consumed the fire dragon’s elixir before coming here?’
But. With that, the magic power only increased by 1. Even if it is 1, an increase is an increase, so it may have had an impact. Even taking that into account, the degree to which it was felt was significant.
‘Oh, no way. Is it because all the impurities accumulated in the blood vessels have been burned?’
I do not immediately accept the Fire Dragon’s elixir as magical power.
After burning the impurities of the blood path, only the remaining energy was accepted.
‘I left it alone because the elixir naturally tried to burn off impurities.’
Woooung─
Certainly, as I rotated the magic power, I felt that the flow was much smoother than before.
It feels like driving on a national highway and then a highway.
In that case, there was no reason to be disappointed that the magic power only increased by 1.
This means that quality, not quantity, has improved.
That was when I was checking my body.
“Let’s do it again…”
Instructor Elena spoke in a hushed voice.
“My, I underestimated you… So, let’s try again.”
‘Hmm, I think you’re still underestimating…’
I had already been through this situation many times.
‘How many times does this person have to be broken before he will admit it?’
I sighed briefly and removed the sword from her neck.
“Yes, we will hang out with you until you are satisfied.”
* * *
And then, Jin Yuha and Elena’s sparring began again.
“Ha, just once…”
“All over again!”
“Just one more time…!”
A couplet repeated several times.
The atmosphere was gradually becoming heavier.
Elena, the instructor who was the object of fear and fear at the training site.
She continued to lose without even being able to properly swing her spear in front of a single trainee, especially her man.
Taaat!
Elena rushes in again.
Zech.
Once again, Jin Yuha’s sword touched her neck
“Eh, Elena! Lose, defeat!”
The instructor who was judging him stammered and shouted.
The trainees who watched the fight between the two couldn’t help but have doubts.
“······Why on earth, why did the instructor lose?”
Jin Yuha’s movements were very simple.
She simply dodges the spear fired at her body and stabs the sword into the gap.
Even though it was a movement that was clearly visible to her eyes, Elena was not able to receive even a single strike of the sword.
“What is that…”
“Why can’t I avoid it?”
“Why is the sword visible like that?”
At first, I thought Elena was joking.
The trainees who were thinking soon fell silent.
Because her expression she said it
That this defeat is not some kind of joke.
“······.”
Now Elena’s pride and all she had was her shattered face her and her her body her her trembled, chewing on her lip her her.
No more words came out of her mouth.
Gulp.
One of the trainees who was watching slowly opened her mouth.
“······Does it make sense for a male trainee to beat an instructor like this?”
Starting with her remarks
The trainees next to each other started throwing out words one by one.
“Now that I think about it. “Isn’t it a bit strange that you can’t avoid a sword that’s visible like that?”
“Yes, it’s really strange.”
“······By any chance, that man. Couldn’t he be the devil’s minion?”
At the word devil, everyone’s eyes turned to Jin Yu-ha.
Elena looked at me and opened her mouth as if she had heard that.
“The devil’s… Minions?”
Suddenly the atmosphere began to change strangely.
A development that once again stimulates PTSD from the past.
‘Oh, shit.’
I am cursed inside.
When she first entered the academy, wasn’t she suspected of being a demon because she showed her skills in a man’s body?
Only the times and background were different, but the situation was exactly the same as back then.
‘Ha, this time the setting is the Middle Ages. ‘Well, is this a witch hunt or something?’
The thought of having to prove once again that I am not the devil’s minion made me dizzy.
‘But, is there an artifact like a mine discriminator here too? Well, it seems like witch hunts in the Middle Ages were just burning at the stake…’
“The devil’s servant…”
“For some reason, I heard that the devil’s minions often have exceptional looks…”
“Well, look at Instructor Elena being beaten like that without even being able to resist. That’s strange! It’s clear that he was bewitched using some kind of trick!”
Gradually, the claim that I was the devil’s servant was gaining strength, and the surroundings were heating up.
The instructor in front of me must have thought the same, as his eyes changed to look like he was about to face life or death.
I swallowed a rising sigh and looked around to estimate the number.
‘Is the approximate number about 200 people? Well, looking at the instructor’s skills, I think it would be easy to win… ‘
However, if you do that, you cannot avoid becoming a wanted man in the kingdom as a servant of the devil.
This was not good.
It seems like the plot is really going to be ruined.
‘For now, let’s avoid this place.’
That was when I calmed my eyes and strengthened the hand holding the wooden sword.
“Stop.”
In the midst of silence, a small voice broke in.
Everyone was started by that and turned their heads.
And I could see it too.
A familiar face.
Special features of utopia. It was Ichika.
‘Ichika!’
She was wearing a loose purple robe and a wide-brimmed conical hat.
With her appearance her, the atmosphere instantly froze.
Tuk.
Suddenly Elena put down her spear in her hand, knelt down on one knee, and bowed her head to him.
“Oh, Minister of Magic.”
“I watched everything from behind.”
Ichika looked down at the back of her head and spat in an emotionless voice.
“It’s ugly.”
“······Yes?”
“It’s really ugly to not be able to admit defeat and struggle until the end.”
Then, Elena shouted, pointing at me with a face full of resentment.
“B-but! Me, with a man’s body like that! There is a possibility that it really is the devil’s minion…!”
However, Elena, who was protesting under Ichika’s staring gaze, had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.
Then, Ichika’s drowsy eyes turned to me.
“You. Really a servant of the devil?”
“······No.”
“Yes, I know.”
Then, the trainees who claimed to be the devil’s minions also kept quiet.
She is the core of state power.
Because he was the Minister of Magic.
Since she has lowered her affirmation her her her, who can raise her voice in front of her?
“Still, I’ll check. You, follow me.”
Therefore, even though Jin Yu-ha was leisurely leaving the training ground, no one could stop him.
* * *
Jeopuk.
Jeopuk.
I thought to myself as I silently followed Ichika.
‘Ichika is the Minister of Magic…’
This raffle is a huge success.
The reason why I chose Autumn as the person to carry out this quest was simple.
A character whose status starts as king.
It belongs to the only country that has giants.
Except for her, all other characters start in the hostile country of the faction attacking that kingdom.
Then, why did you pick Ichika?
It’s because of the abilities she has!
In this quest, the ability to attack in the air is essential.
Shin Se-hee, who uses magic, or Sophia, who shoots a bow, could also be candidates.
Those two inevitably have weak firepower as dealers.
Ichika was the best because one of the participating characters had to be a regular member.
But, Ichika, who was chosen based solely on her abilities, is the Minister of Magic!
Now it was nice to say that my life had unfolded.
Jerk. Jerk. Jeopuk.
Gradually, Ichika’s steps began to speed up.
Squeak─ Tung.
She opened a flashy door, entered the room, and immediately closed the door.
And.
Sook.
Ichika suddenly came into my arms.
“······?”
“Charge.”
I was embarrassed for a moment, then smiled and patted Ichika’s head.
“Huuu…”
Ichika purrs like a cat and enjoys the feel of her hand.
“It hasn’t even been that long since I fell, so why are you doing this?”
“······Unfamiliar places are stressful. And there are too many strangers.”
Ichika grunted, rubbing her head against his chest.
“Still, I would have been embarrassed. You managed to find me right away.”
“Yes, I used shadows. And I, the Minister of Magic. “I can protect my benefactor.”
“Then, have you figured out how the situation is going now?”
Then, Ichika lifted her head while being held.
“······I think we’re going to go to war soon. To the Kingdom of Lilliput.”
‘War with the Kingdom of Lilliput.’
The kingdom where we would soon go to war was where Gaeul was the king.
‘Hmm, but no way. Ga Eul will either declare that he will kill the giant or not, right? The giant is not the monster that Lina sealed.’
I was thinking about the Lilliput Kingdom, and suddenly a thought occurred to me.
‘No, that can’t be possible.’
The Gaeul senior I know is a person with tolerance(?) And a gentle nature(?) Who embraces everyone.
At least he will listen to the giant’s words and think about it.
I shook my head to chase away the uneasy feeling that I was feeling for some reason.
* * *
Meanwhile, the Lilliput Kingdom.
Lim Ga-eul was sitting on the throne with her legs crossed and her chin resting on her face with a bored expression.
She received a detailed explanation of the situation from her ministers.
“Hmm, giants are such a problem…”
She nodded her head resolutely.
“Yes, I guess I should kill him.”
“······Your majesty!! “Your judgment is excellent and wise!!!”
At that, all the subjects lowered themselves and shouted in voices filled with emotion.
The worst situation for Jin Yuha.
“However, it would be a waste to just kill him. “I will have to see it with my own eyes once.”
It almost came…
