Episode 7
“Damn Mikhail.”
Lian staggered with his sword inserted into the heart of the demon god 3rd corps leader, Fierce Alzeum.
Defeated the Demon God 3 Corps commander.
It could be said that it was a tremendous achievement considering that the damned ‘hero’ dragged all his strength to defeat the 2nd Corps commander.
…In return, the spear of Alzeum was pierced into Lian’s heart.
“You die. I can’t fix this.”
“know. oh fuck Even if I came and practiced the training method a year earlier, I would be killed first.”
“What do you want to say?”
“It was a very good life.”
“I see.”
Lian grinned, as if my bland reaction was amusing.
“What else do you need? No matter what I do, it seems like I’m going to die. I’m glad I took him with me.”
“Don’t worry and rest.”
“Yeah, that’s how it should be.”
Ryan, who was about to close his eyes, suddenly raised his head.
It seemed like he thought of something to say.
“Oh yeah. that. While I was leaving, there was something I wanted to ask you.”
“say.”
“Yes, you.”
Lian’s eyes widened for a moment.
“really…Couldn’t you have become a hero?”
“….”
It was an expected question.
Rather, if it was this guy, why would I even want to ask him now?
I had a chance to become a warrior.
Yes, even I have thought about it dozens of times.
At first I thought my choice was right, but now… ….
“…go first Whether my choice was right or not, we will know later.”
“haha.”
Ryan laughed helplessly.
“…It would have been nice if you were a warrior.”
After saying that, his head hung down weakly.
It was the end of the Sword Saint, one of mankind’s hopes.
* * *
Right away, I dragged Lian to an empty lot.
“Okay, no one is there.”
“Yes, just you and me. So what are you going to do here?”
Ryan asked with his arms crossed.
“They said they needed proof.”
“So you’re going to prove it?”
He looked at me like it wasn’t funny and said.
“Are you trying to explain the principles of Aurors? You, a wizard and no one else?”
“Oh right.”
Of course, I didn’t learn Aurors.
Although he learned swordsmanship to the level of basic knowledge, it was not to an outstanding level.
I grabbed the sword rolling around and swung it aimlessly.
“It’s filthy heavy. < strength >.”
Ugh.
Circle 4 strength-enhancing magic.
I think I can wield it the way I want.
“…What are we going to do?”
“Mullière was a being who reached the extreme in the efficiency of his aura. A training method with exactly twice the efficiency compared to the existing Aura training method.”
“…Yes it was.”
Mülière’s aura training method.
Basically, the principle itself is not much different from the existing aura training method.
The difference is that Mülière’s aura leaves a special ‘imprint’ on the body.
Common Aura training methods intentionally place control over the amount of Aura refined.
This is because there is a limit to the aura that humans can handle.
However, the upper limit of the ‘control’ in the Mullière Auror training method was very high.
If the maximum upper limit of an aura is 100, the limit of a general aura training method is about 40.
However, Mülière allows the aura to be used up to 70.
“Raise your aura.”
“Why all of a sudden…”
“Stop talking. Because I need an accurate confirmation.”
At my words, Rian raised an aura even though he didn’t know why.
A fresh blue aura that spreads throughout the body.
Up to this point, it was the same as the general Auror training method, but the next step was different.
Ugh.
A blue imprint began to emerge all over Lian’s body.
It’s not very clear, but it’s definitely the mark that is the symbol of Mülière’s Aura training method.
“I got used to it to some extent. I’d like it to be about half.”
“Yes, that is the limit of the output that can be produced.”
So, it is no different from the general Auror training method.
“You managed to find Mulière’s records. amazing.”
“I was lucky. I’ve been looking for it for a long time, but I barely got it in my father’s generation.”
I must have.
Because that’s what Ryan told me.
“But, damn it, it wasn’t until I got used to it that I realized it was half-defective.”
It was unavoidable.
Because Lian was the first to learn the training method he found.
Anyway.
The old Lian had been anticipating his own end, so he had taught me how to train.
I didn’t know it would turn out like this.
Maybe it’s time to give it back
“I can’t do this many times, so open your eyes and take a good look.”
He quietly focused his mind while holding the sword.
It goes without saying, but I can’t fully reproduce the Mülière training method.
But if it’s ‘some’, it’s possible.
It’s a different field, but it’s reached the extreme, and it’s because I realized the essence of the training method through numerous sparring with the person who reached the extreme.
Ugh.
Although the whole body is difficult, it is possible to recreate the complete aura even briefly if it is about the wrist holding the sword.
Ugh.
On my wrist, a deep blue imprint began to bloom like a flower.
For a moment, my imprint was much clearer than Lian’s.
And it flowed down the handle and soon began to sprout like thorns on the sword.
“…!”
Ryan’s eyes widened in astonishment when he saw this.
“Tsk.”
But keeping it any longer is unreasonable. I can’t even hold it properly for 30 seconds, let alone 1 minute.
In the first place, wizards and swordsmen clearly have different ways of managing mana.
I lightly brushed the wrist holding the sword.
The aura imprint that flowed along the wrist disappeared without a trace.
“So are you sure you saw it?”
“This crazy…”
Ryan was looking at me with the look of a monster.
“Aren’t you a wizard?”
“It’s a 100% pure wizard.”
“But how did you use the aura?! The nature of mana is different, so there will be a rejection reaction… …!”
“Can’t you see that I turned it off immediately after receiving a rejection response?”
Even if it was an aura, I could only reproduce it for about 30 seconds, so why are you so fussy?
“Oh no, anyway…“
That’s not what’s important right now. This is enough to prove that I know the training method, right?”
“that…yes.”
Ryan couldn’t hide his agitation and couldn’t take his eyes off my wrist.
“So that’s just… …Like this…”
He somehow tried to understand what I was seeing, but there’s no way that was possible with just what he saw.
“Oh damn! Too bad! Nothing can go wrong with this!”
Rian yelled at me, scratching her head nervously.
“Can’t you just let me know?! I’ll accept everything you said, so just wait!”
“So what?”
“Ah yes! I bet! I can’t tell you that easily… …huh?”
Lian, who was nervous, suddenly tilted her head.
“…what now?”
“I will tell you.”
I smiled and told him.
“Of course, it’s impossible here, and you come directly to our family. Then I will pass on everything.”
“Wait a minute?! It’s nothing else, but it tells you how to train Mulière so lightly?”
“Isn’t that what you wanted?”
“Oh no, I wanted to, but…. Yes, that’s what I really wanted… …!”
I left the fidgety guy behind me and turned around.
“Wait, where are you going?”
“I’ve done all my business, so there’s no reason to stay here any longer.”
The reason I came here is to protest against the ducal family and to build a bond with Lian.
Those two were everything.
There is no reason to stay here as long as you have achieved your goal.
There was still plenty of work to be done.
“Hey hey! It’s really going to tell you when you go to your family, right?! promised! If you don’t, you’re a real asshole, so be sure to protect it!”
I waved my arms roughly and left the clearing.
It was around the time I was about to enter the mansion. A voice came from the shadows.
“Mikhail.”
It was the Duke of Lindell.
“Ah, sir. I was going to say hello before leaving, but you are here.”
“Are you leaving already? Well, it’s not strange, since you’ve got everything you need.”
sly old man.
Did you see all of them?
But he just smiled and hid his expression.
“Haha have you seen it? Well, I don’t think it would have been difficult for someone as skilled as His Excellency.”
“I saw everything. entire.”
Duke Lindel dares to emphasize the word ‘everything’.
He slowly approached me with his hands behind his back.
“First of all, apologize. I did a great disservice to you and Walpurgis. I will leave it entirely up to you as to how to compensate.”
I was a little surprised by that statement.
I know what I’m asking for
“You made a big decision.”
“Because it was that much ugliness.”
Duke Lindel calmly admitted his mistake.
Should I say that he is the owner of a great imperial family?
Well, I don’t need to say more about it here.
I politely expressed my example.
“I apologize for coming in on my own and being rude. Please, I hope that the wedding talk with Lian Paslov goes well.”
“Hondam…”
The Duke let out a wry smile.
“You are a lot darker than you think. It seems to me that this marriage talk is definitely wrong.”
“Oh is that so? Too bad.”
“It’s just as you wished.”
“Haha what are you saying?”
I mean.
I just made an offer to Lian and gave him a choice.
I have never told him to break up the marriage talk, and I have no intention of doing so.
“Rian has a thorough personality. Until now, that child has assumed that the previous breakup was caused by your ‘lack of qualifications’.”
“….”
“But this time I saw you in person. I will necessarily think Contrary to popular rumors, there will be something in the ‘breakup’.”
Doubt, once lifted, is not easily lifted.
In particular, important contracts such as engagements are to the extent that they have to think twice.
“Are you really Mikhail Walpurgis? Is that the child I remembered?”
“Unfortunately, yes.”
“Huh…”
Duke Lindel drooled.
“I will ask you one thing. Do you think we can find Walpurgis’ faith?”
“Of course not.”
Although the back of my head was definitely tingling at the time.
“Walpurgis does not refuse anyone who comes. Of course, if Lindel is sincere to do so, the door is always open.”
“Heh, sincerity…”
The Duke let out a wry smile.
He immediately nodded and spoke to me.
“Okay. Apart from what I told you, I will go to the Marquis separately and apologize.”
“I would like to express my gratitude to the Duke for his consideration.”
I also gave an example.
“Oh and Your Excellency.”
“hmm? Something. tell me.”
I looked at the peacock and said softly.
“If there was an ‘excellent teacher’ who could help Eileen, what would you do?”
The duke opened his eyes wide.
“What are you trying to introduce?”
“As you said, if Lindell finds faith.”
At my reply, the duke looked at me for a moment with puzzled eyes.
“Master…. It sounds like you’re talking to that child as if our swordsmanship isn’t right for you.”
“I’m not saying it doesn’t fit. But whether that’s the ‘best’ isn’t another matter.”
Duchess, if it’s you, you probably can’t guess.
“Hmm…”
The duke scratched his chin for a moment, then spoke to me.
“You really…It’s pretty dark inside.”
“You misunderstood.”
I smiled and lowered my head.
I turned my back because I really had nothing more to say.
* * *
“Are you finished?”
Back at the mansion, the butler was waiting in the drawing room.
“What is it, the reaction is more boring than I thought.”
“What were you imagining?”
“I just said, ‘Hey, how are you? I was really worried about what was going on!’ I knew there would be a reaction like that.”
“What is it? Maybe it was the first time… …”
The butler looked at me strangely and said.
“Later, it seemed that it was not necessary.”
“okay?”
“Yes, you have become stronger, young boy.”
He wasn’t like his usual butler.
No, if he wasn’t a ‘butler’ but the original him, this would be normal.
“What good. let’s go back now There are a lot of things that have been delayed.”
“Hee hee!”
At my words, the butler immediately stood up.
“Now I will get some rest. It must have been too harsh a trip for such an old man.”
“It’s tough again.”
“It’s tough!”
I left the butler’s care and left the duchy.
“Since you’ve accomplished your original purpose enough, you can go back now, right?”
“Uh, that’s right. I’ll have to clean up some of the shit I packed.”
“…yes?”
Until the age of 20, I was literally incorrigible.
And the dung that the incurable had wrapped around was all over the house.
Let’s get rid of that first.
Great mage who transcends by regression
