Episode 360 - Academy (7)
“You are the most suspicious. “Don’t be a bother and just get to the point quickly.”
How can you say something like that with a listless expression? I was dumbfounded for a moment, but I said it without showing it.
“Recently, there are forces trying to start a civil war in China. According to the information we have received, they will soon attempt to assassinate the mayor.”
Terrorist, or rebel. The moment I continued explaining about them.
Meilin, who had been listening silently, waved her hand.
“Stop. I’m not interested in civil war or anything. That’s okay… Now that I’m here, just show me your sword. “I wonder how Isabel raised her disciple.”
“…That’s right.”
Slurp.
He slowly cut open the air with his sword blade. I drew dozens of silver lines.
Whick!
She let her mind guide her and pointed the tip of her sword at her. The moment I was stabbed between the eyes.
Shocked, she tilted her head. He reflexively dodged from the path of my sword.
Crash.
My blade, which was walking through the air, was recovered in its scabbard.
“···Her.”
Meilin, who had been frozen as if frozen, finally moved. She let out a quiet, barely audible breath.
Widely!
I even put down my cigarette but got up from the bed. He approached me and looked at me closely.
“I said Choi Si-woo. “Can I take a look at the magic circuit for a moment?”
“Yes. “Do whatever you want.”
She tilted her upper body and placed her hand on my wrist, and the scent of medicinal herbs that wafted in the air savored her taste.
I admired the white flesh peeking through her collar. Her breasts were so large that her cleavage was straight.
‘How does a woman like this cry in bed…’
I couldn’t stop the thoughts that came naturally to me. With her I-cup breasts tempting before her eyes, she couldn’t help it. It was literally force majeure.
‘Hmm.’
I gathered my expression. Because it was a familiar situation, I was able to keep a calm face.
Ugh!
I let her magic sweep through my meridians. There was no way she would know about my skills unless I wanted her to know about them anyway.
How much time has passed?
“···You’re really 20 years old?”
Meilin’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. The emotion in her eyes was clearly jealousy.
She was biting her red lips and turned around.
“Follow me.”
*
I followed her through her long hallway as she headed somewhere.
‘Hmm.’
Every time Meilin walked, I caught a glimpse of her pure white legs. Her skirt was long enough to reach her ankles, but her side slits extended down to her thighs.
When I was openly appreciating the shapely legs. She frowned and turned around.
“You···”
She glared at me, took out her long cloth from space, and put it on. It was tied tightly around her waist, covering all of her inner skin.
“Really… He’s a guy with a bad eye habit. This is my first time seeing a man with a thick face like you. “Are you really Isabel’s disciple?”
“Isn’t it wrong for a man to like a pretty woman?”
“Under.”
“If you are really uncomfortable, I will tolerate it from now on. “It may be difficult.”
When I spoke so shamelessly, she turned her head as if she was shocked.
“But where are you going?”
“···.”
She asked several questions but received no answer. Meilin just walked ahead in silence.
“Huh! “Well, see you, Geomseon!”
Everyone I encountered greeted me with an expression of emotion. Their eyes were full of respect, but Meilin only nodded her head.
How long did I walk along the complicated road?
Before we knew it, the number of people had decreased significantly, and we arrived at a quiet lakeside.
The round moon swaying on the water was quite charming. Is it because the bright full moon is reflected on the water? Even though the sun had set, it wasn’t that dark.
‘There are a lot of fireflies… It feels good.
Sting.
It was nice to hear the faint sound of insects in the grass. The atmosphere was awesome. It was the perfect place to seduce a woman.
As she stood by the water’s edge and looked at the scenery, she parted her lips. She spoke in a whispering tone, as if she were telling a fairy tale.
“My teacher’s teacher… Much higher than that. There is a herbivorous diet that is passed down through the sword vein I followed. No, rather than herbivorous, the word ‘question’ would be more appropriate.”
“Question?”
There was no answer.
She simply drew her sword with a slow breath.
Whick!
Like a child playing with a stick. It rained lightly toward the lakeside, and black air as white as snow split the surface of the water.
Sigh!
In an instant, everything above the water was cut off.
From clouds falling from the sky to the brightly shining full moon. The scenery along the lakeside was split in half. However, it was only for a moment.
So naturally.
The full moon, which had been split in half, came back intact as if it had never happened before.
Her calm voice was heard in the quiet forest.
“Could it be possible to cut the moon reflected in the water and leave a trace in the sky? That was the question. “The Geommaek that I followed has tried to answer that.”
“Hmm.”
I stroked her chin. Cutting out the essence through the illusion reflected on the surface of the water. It was quite an interesting question.
I looked away while wondering if I could do it.
“But why did you tell me this?”
“I saw something in your sword that I didn’t have.”
“···.”
“That’s it. “Maybe it’s someone like you who can move forward…”
She frowned as she fumbled around her waist, as if searching for something.
He took out a new cigarette pipe from subspace and took a slow drag.
“Phew… I just did it to put my mind at ease, so there’s nothing to worry about. “If you ever find the answer, just show it to me.”
“…That’s right.”
Meilin smiled faintly for the first time at my answer.
She secretly admired her red, curved lips. As expected of a woman, her smiling face was the best to see.
“Well… It’s what I said earlier. Really, how could it not be? “The mayor may be assassinated.”
Taking advantage of the good mood, she brought up the story of the civil war, and Meilin’s expression changed as if she had eaten an astringent persimmon.
Just by looking at her and seeing how annoyed she was, it seemed like she knew how to coax him out.
“If we leave the civil war alone, it will become more troublesome. “Much more than now.”
“···Tsk. I’ll tell my disciple. Tell her to do it. “The market will take care of it.”
With that said, finally. She went back the way she came. She remained alone and worried by the lakeside with only the sound of insects in the grass.
“Hmm···”
Reflecting on Meilin’s attitude, I felt like she knew something. Why is she so exhausted?
***
Mei Lin’s disciple’s name was Yang Wei. She called her ambassador brother and she said to him.
“You heard it from the prosecutor. “Please escort the mayor for the time being.”
“…It wouldn’t be difficult to just strengthen the guards. Exactly how long do I have to keep it? “We can’t just wait, so if you have any information, please share it.”
I laughed awkwardly. Most of the information I had was about Helena’s past life.
“Well. I don’t know the exact date either. “Watch around the market and let me know if anything suspicious happens.”
Yang Wei’s expression darkened at my irresponsible words.
“…Is there a possibility of a terrorist attack?”
“That’s for sure.”
Waiting indefinitely for an assassin who may come at any moment. It was truly a nuisance.
When I gave him a handshake to tell him to work hard, the corners of his mouth started to tremble. The tendons on his chin made him look a little annoyed.
“Huh… I understand. I will follow what Master said. If there is a problem while escorting, I will contact you.”
“Thank you. “Then let me ask you a favor.”
There was still time left as Yang Wei was entrusted with escorting the market.
Now terrorists. To be precise, all that remained was to wait for the rebels to react.
With the heart of an angler who spread bait. I just waited quietly.
*
Two days have already passed.
Swish!
He swung his sword towards the still waters. The clouds reflected on the water were cut off, but soon came back intact.
It was the same when I looked up at the sky. Even my heart sword could not leave a trace in the sky.
‘···Is it still okay?’
What if you cut down the clouds yourself? It was difficult to influence people through illusions reflected on the surface of the water.
I smiled while looking at the peaceful lakeside. It’s not something you have to make a hasty decision about.
Slam!
He sheathed his sword, believing that it would happen one day.
I sat by the water and looked through the news sent by Yang Wei, and the area around the market was still quiet.
‘I can’t do this.’
It was a bit sore. I tried to train and wait while the rebels approached the mayor, but it was more boring than expected. Living in a place without women made every day feel like a year.
I took out the warp seal. At that time, I was wondering which of my lovers I should go to.
Rustle.
I heard the sound of cutting through the bushes and soon saw a friendly face.
“…I was here. “I’ve been looking for it for a while.”
The woman who walked hesitantly was none other than Sword Saint Isabel.
Her face, once as bright as a girl’s, changed a little. The area under her eyes was dark, as if she had been through a lot of mental distress over the past few days. It seemed like he couldn’t sleep well because of the story I told him.
“Long time no see. “It’s nice to see you in China.”
“Well…”
She soothed her mouth.
She seemed to have a lot to say, but she couldn’t quite open her lips. She kept hesitating, averting her gaze here and there.
She waited calmly without urging.
About a minute passed. Isabelle took a deep breath and looked straight at me.
“I have something to check for a moment… Can I ask you a favor?”
“Please?”
“Okay. To be honest, I don’t find it easy to believe what she says about the dream world. “Can you show me the sword like you did back then?”
“It’s a sword…”
These days, there are many people who ask me to show them the sword. She chuckled and then shook her head.
“I think this is better than that.”
Cheaeng!
Between her and me. Sparks flew in the air. The two blades met and a strong metallic sound rang out.
Isabel blocked the sword I swung in surprise.
“What?”
He said to her, her eyes as round as a rabbit.
“We just spar lightly. “Aren’t swords things that gain meaning when they come into contact with each other?”
