68 – The Horrible Child

The Horrible Child

Abigail was a mercenary before coming to Legandia Academy.

Her life was quite intense as she lived as a mercenary in the Bell Union, where lords fought each other and civil wars were frequent.

At a young age. It is not easy for a young girl to live among rough and threatening mercenaries.

Her enemies weren’t always on the battlefield, but all of her comrades were enemies.

Her striking red hair, eyes, and curvaceous appearance made her attractive to mercenaries, and she had to survive flirting with mercenaries who didn’t care about her age, and even threats and rape.

As she revealed to Rai that she was her virgin, Abagail was fortunately not in trouble.

It was all thanks to her mercenary who took care of her.

I don’t know the real name of the mercenary nicknamed One-Eyed Jack. Everyone was calling him that, and Jack asked himself to be called that too.

Jack took an interest in Abigail, who was running errands among the mercenaries.

Even though she is a commoner’s child, she is at an age where she won’t be working yet. It is very strange to see a child walking around with a load that is bigger than her body among rough mercenaries.

She’s immature yet, so she doesn’t have the charm of a woman, but judging from her pretty face, as she gets older, she’s enough to attract the attention of mercenaries.

Jack, who had assumed that her child, who had lost her home in her war, was just running an errand or two, worries about her when he learns that Abigail is still in her mercenary squad.

Her Abigail still doesn’t know how he cared for her. I don’t know if he had the same s*x drive and affection as the other mercenaries, or if he had the warmth uncharacteristic of a mercenary, but Jack protected Abigail.

Her career as a mercenary is not long, but Abigail, who has been under the protection of Jack, who is building a reputation for her outstanding skills, can be safe among dangerous mercenaries.

And the best thing about Abagail was that she got the power she so longed for.

Jack taught her how to fight to protect her body, and the gifted Abigail absorbed and grew like a sponge.

At first, Jack, who simply tried to teach self-defense, was surprised by her talent and began to teach more and more, as if he found it fun to teach.

With a fragile body that looks like a child, he went to war with a bunch of mercenaries and slaughtered the enemy.

Enemies who looked down on her as children lay on the cold ground, and the places she passed through created a scene as pitiful as other ferocious mercenaries.

Her mercenaries nicknamed her Red Hound because of her unchildlike cruelty and how fiercely she ran despite her skills.

Everyone knows that she changed from her dog-dog to her red hound, a nickname given to her by her envy or dislike of her young.

Abigail, who survived with a tougher personality among the tougher mercenaries, knocked down enemies on the battlefield and knocked out all those who quarreled among the mercenaries.

Although it is said that strength is everything in a mercenary society, mercenaries whose pride is hurt by being beaten by a young girl secretly launch surprise attacks, but each time Abigail always cuts off the head of her ringleader and boasts of her ineffectiveness.

She once lost her weapon and ran into a mercenary in a state of wounds, ripping her throat out with her teeth.

A fountain of her blood spurted from her mercenary’s neck and bathed in her blood, Abigail lunged once more and bit her on the other side of the neck.

The mercenaries around her froze with goosebumps as Abigail, covered in blood, carelessly spat out her flesh from her mouth.

After that incident, no mercenary ever touched Abigail.

Her Occasionally, when her new mercenaries try to approach her younger self, she advises not to talk to her unless the mercenaries around her die.

It was Abigail who held her ground even in her rough environment, but Jack didn’t like that.

She worries about Abigail, who has such cruelty and venom at the age when she should be playing with children her age with a bright smile.

And he invites Abigail to her Legandia Academy.

Jack is not from the academy, but he has had various contacts with the academy. Jack, who had a relationship with the academy, gives her a letter of recommendation and he tells Abigail to go to the Legandia Academy.

Abigail, who didn’t mind anywhere as long as she could increase her strength, accepted his offer right away.

Seeing her accepting her coolly without any regrets, Jack, who had taught and protected her until now, smiled at her a little bit bitterly, but he thought of her as a good choice if he thought about her future. Send

“……”

Recognizing her daze, Abigail checks her surroundings with increasingly clear vision.

He experienced it often when he was a mercenary, but it’s been quite a while since he was driven to such a situation. I try to straighten her posture by forcing her shaking body to stand up.

Now I see a guy whose name I can’t even remember. He’s a kid who boasts that he’s a year older.

“Uh- I know it’s tough, but wouldn’t it be better to stop? I’m tired too.”

Abigail raised her arm at the words of her opponent, who seemed to be exhausted and was breathing heavily.

From noble mtl dot com

Her tattered arms don’t listen to her and don’t raise properly, but she somehow manages to get her stance.

Abigail hated the academy.

The Imperial Army is the strongest army recognized by anyone on the continent. The era of war ended by catching the demons of all countries, and nothing is left out, such as outstanding morale, the skill of each soldier, tactics, and commander’s ability.

A well-organized army. Power. Abagail, who entered the academy only thinking of the image of the Imperial Army, fell in love with the academy’s unique atmosphere.

Her academy was very free, as if mocking her for thinking that she would not be able to adapt to a hard place like her military academy by living her mercenary life.

Idiots do only stupid things and die. They only chase after the tails of the opposite s*x when training isn’t enough.

The guys who are lacking somewhere are gathered as elites and told to do as they please, and they do not force lectures or training.

Thanks to her, she adapts easily, but Abigail is outraged that the Empire’s best are only idiots like this.

I can’t see the fierceness at all. Outside, they slit their throats and bleed to save their lives, but here they maintain an irritatingly bright atmosphere.

Abigail didn’t want to lose to these fools.

She didn’t want to lose, even though she couldn’t show half of her skills because she lost her sword to Rai.

She came this far by forcing herself to run, get hit, fight and overcome, but her body wasn’t normal after she came up in such a mess.

If only I had a sword, I could have pulled out the heart of that smirking guy.

‘Ah, I can’t kill it.’

Realizing that she is a match, Abigail shakes her head to come to her senses, and she turns back into a ferocious gaze, glaring at her opponent.

Seeing Abigail approaching as her body swayed as her legs loosened, her tongue-tied opponent drew her sword.

“I don’t know what Instructor Lai said, but do it in moderation. You did well just by coming up here with your bare hands.”

What you don’t know is you.

There is no one who can say that he did well just by going out to the battlefield and reaching this point. He always had to defeat his opponent in the end, otherwise the only thing he had to give was his own life.

Abigail approaches her opponent by moving her legs as she screams.

The movements Rai taught her can’t be followed with her messy body. Rushing into her messy posture, Abigail ducks behind her to avoid the swinging sword aiming for her waist.

The sword passed in front of her eyes and Abigail, lying on the ground, kicked her opponent’s ankle.

I didn’t have much strength because I was kicked while lying down, but the opponent swung the sword downward while pulling his feet back.

Abigail gets up right away and throws a piece of broken floor in her hand, causing her opponent to stoop, startled by the unexpected attack.

“Search.”

Abigail gritting her teeth approaches her opponent whose stance is broken and swings her fist.

Having succeeded in feeding her fist right into her completely empty face, Abigail laughs as she sees her belated sword coming in.

– Puck

Since it is a practice sword, it makes a strong impact and Abigail flies off with her back bent.

Abigail is blown away by the shock that paralyzes her whole body, and she sees her opponent spilling her nosebleeds with an angry face in her eyes.

Her angry face is completely different from her relaxed face. Meeting her eyes with her killer glaring counterpart, Abigail sneers and raises her middle finger.

Abigail, who held her finger until she fell to the floor, passed out just as well, and her bout was over.

The first thing Abigail saw after coming to her senses was Rai’s face.

Holding her pen, he opens her eyes. Abigail meets her eyes and slowly lowers her hand.

Abigail got up and checked her face first, making sure that there was nothing wrong with her, and let out a sigh.

“I did as you said, now teach me that.”

“Is that what you say as soon as you wake up?”

“You did what you wanted.”

Rai sighs at Abigail’s words.

“Did you mean to be good or did I mean to be good?”

“Anyway, you did what you were told to do.”

She has a rough mouth and rough personality, but Abigail, who acts like a child, is cute. Rai laughs lightly.

She seemed to be laughing at that. Abigail made her impression right away, but Rai didn’t care and looked around her.

Abigail was the only one who passed out in the loser’s bracket in the third round, so everyone went back after treatment.

Only Abigail and Rai are left.

Lai gestures in the air and creates a magic circle.

Following the moving hand as if drawing a picture, golden mana fluttered in the air and the magic circle was completed one by one.

At first, Abigail, who was focused and staring at the magic circle, feels strange about her unending magic circle and looks at Rai.

A magic circle often uses the expression “Middle” Because it mixes multiple magics.

It is said that an excellent pure mage can do up to three, and as the middle goes up, the magic circle becomes more complicated, requiring endless effort to raise one level.

‘5-Fold, 6-fold, 7-fold?’

As she counted the magic circles one by one, Abigail couldn’t believe that she was looking right.

She has never even heard the word sevenfold. Folk tales and legends of heroes also use the sound of 5-fold or 6-fold, but they do not even think of 7-fold in the first place.

After spending time and completing the magic circle, there was a magic circle beyond Abigail’s understanding.

She

She came to the academy, and she is the one who focused on her weakest magic and studied it.

She may be immature in actually using magic, but she accumulated enough knowledge by going to and from the library, but she couldn’t understand the magic circle Lai made, let alone analyze it, like when she first encountered a foreign language.

“This is what you wanted. Can you do it?”

“……”

“Can’t you?”

Rai laughs mockingly and snaps his fingers to dispel his magic circle. The golden magic circle flies away in the air and soon there is a loud noise, the door bursts open and Layla enters.

Leyla, who seems to be out of breath as if she was in a hurry, glared at Rai and said.

“What have you done?”

“……I was just teaching him.”

Leila looked at Abigail pointed at by Rai, sighed heavily, and then glared at Rai again.

“You remember what I said? Don’t do anything stupid.”

“Yes”

After answering Layla who left without even listening to her answer, Rai smiled and turned her head away.

Feeling the flow of her huge mana, she ran hurriedly and seemed to be having fun.

“Anyway, the technique I used is the exclusive property of mages. You can’t master it.”

“Were you a pure mage?”

“No, not a pure magic user, but a mage.”

As she hears the old-fashioned words he says, Abigail frowns as if it doesn’t make sense.

Come to think of it, most of the words Rai says are words that he doesn’t use anymore. Even pure magic users are now called pure wizards, and mages don’t even know what’s different from wizards.

“Why are you obsessed with power?”

“…… You don’t know.”

“No, I need to know. Because I have to teach you. If you say your goal is to conquer the world, I will teach you something appropriate for that purpose. If you say that you are going to defeat the Demon Lord, I will teach you something suitable for that as well.”

It’s a noble spirit, so it’s not like old-fashioned words. It is said that with strong power, take responsibility, and not according to the words of old people, but according to what you want.

Abigail stares at Rai, who seems to be the most insane person in the insane academy.

A face mixed with mischief that is somehow pissed off. However, most of the things he jokes about are true and he makes them real.

Looking at what he’s doing, he’s not trustworthy, but he’s also the most trustworthy person.

“I want revenge.”

“To whom?”

Abigail spoke words that had never been said to anyone, not even to Jack.

Unknowingly speaking her true feelings, she looks away in embarrassment and gets angry at Rai who looks at her blindly.

“You don’t know!”

“No matter how many times I explain that I know. Did the stupid guy even hurt his head?”

“Just make me stronger!”

Abigail, who is like a child, and Rai’s stubbornness, which is second to none like a child, meet and become noisy.

In the end, Abigail, who ran away without telling Rai, goes back embarrassed, not knowing why she did it.

I intended to keep the secret inside until I died.

He wanted to die because he knew only himself and was going to solve it himself, but to tell that idiot without realizing it.

She should have been wary and serious that the secret of revenge was revealed, but Abigail, full of shame, ran down the street not realizing her strangeness.
