My Disciples Know That I Am Strong

Episode 11. Candidate for the Next Emperor (7)

“What did you just say?”

Acher’s face was reddened.

It wasn’t enough that I was subdued at once, so I was treated like a dick.

It is safe to say that this not only trampled on his pride, but also gave him shame at once.

Tina giggled as she jumped back and returned to her place. She was vicious.

“Did you say it was f*cking rice?”

Such crazy. I didn’t hear it wrong.

I just told you not to finish it all at once, just look at it.

However, when I said that it was rice cake after short words, my head was dizzy.

“Master.”

“What is it?”

“Is there a reason you asked Tina to say that?”

“I never told you to.”

Iris looked at her unexpectedly.

No, what the hell is my image like?

Even though I speak rudely because of my facial expression management skill, I had no intention of teaching Tina how to speak badly.

Tina is a warrior.

She was the one who would later emerge as one of the heroes representing the empire by killing numerous demons.

What would be the benefit of having such a child build a bad image?

“Then what did you say in a whisper just a moment ago?”

“I was told to strike first, but not to subdue it all at once. It was intended to make you realize the difference in capabilities.”

Those who sharpen martial arts are generally proud of their own strength, so I thought that just showing them that they could beat you overwhelmingly would be enough provocation.

But who would have thought that he would thoroughly destroy reason by using even words?

You’re all grown up, Tina.

…… On the bad side.

“So you’re saying that Tina said that of her own accord?”

“Yes.”

“It’s quite the way it is, Tina.”

Maria, who was listening to the story from the side, gave a brief admiration.

“I must try it too.”

Don’t…….

Here was another child to disturb my mind.

“Then Tina can be said to have correctly grasped her master’s intentions.”

No matter how she interprets it, she has her own mind, but how many people can say that she is a sucker for Aker?

“Prause ruined the kids. Sobbing.”

“Shut up, Ariel.”

Hearing Ariel’s artificial sniffles, she closed her eyes and then opened them.

Look above the arena. There, Tina and Acher were in a confrontational state.

“This bastard… ….”

“If you have time to say that, draw your sword. If not, will you beat me?”

Can’t we go ahead and end it with a moderate provocation?

Following my intentions was a good thing, but it was too much.

“Since you’re next to Prause, are the kids talking arrogantly? How did you train your disciples?”

Acher draws his sword. It was a double-edged sword with an impressive blue blade.

“It won’t end well, you damn kid.”

“I guess so. Because it will hit me and make me suffocate.”

“This… You damn bastard!!”

In the end, the fight was Tina’s victory.

Actually, the fact that a 13-year-old and an adult were arguing was already out of balance.

Besides, since she holds such a high title, she must have never heard herself insulted to such an extent in her life.

Anyway, I succeeded in destroying reason as a result, so I don’t think it’s a bad result. The repair will be mine, though.

“If you ask me to come and see you, I will kill—”

“You talk a lot.”

This time, Tina, who instantly closed her distance, recited her skill from her low posture.

“「Ascension Sword」.”

Kang!

He blocks Tina’s attack with a quick reaction, but her body floats.

“Kuu! What power…… !”

“Goodbye. 「Destruction Strike」.”

Tina’s powerful sword strikes at his body. Since his feet had not yet touched the ground, there was no way for Acher to escape.

As the sword was about to touch his body, water was created in the air to protect his body.

In an instant, the momentum carried by the sword dies.

“…… ?”

“「Falling Water」.”

Kang!

Tina changes her stance to block the blue sword from falling over his head. Seeing Tina’s sword tremble, it seemed to be powerful.

“It seems pretty strong, but not as strong as Iris.”

Tina was about to push Acher’s sword away.

Damn it!

“!”

The ground on which Tina is stepping cracks. The pressure of her crushing her intensifies, and at the same time her stream of water winds around her Acher’s sword.

“Nereid, your response is slow.”

“Anyway, without me, Acher wouldn’t work.”

A blue woman appears behind Acher. The woman standing in the air was someone she had never seen before in the game.

Her name was Nereid, one of the water spirits.

She didn’t appear much in the game, so I had a vague memory of her, but I remembered seeing her in person.

I remember that she was a water spirit who signed a contract with Acher, and the concept was of a girl who has unrequited love for Acher.

However, Aker uses her thoroughly and does not have private feelings for her, so she stays with her unrequited love until her game is over.

“I didn’t even call, but I didn’t come.”

“If I hadn’t called, Acher’s body would have been pierced by the attack just now. Please take care of yourself because you have to be my groom.”

“Noisy. We can win without your help.”

“Again, again, stubborn. That, Acher alone can’t win. Because he has risen to the ranks of a sword master.”

“What?”

Acher is startled by Nereid’s words.

She couldn’t help but be surprised to learn that a child who was only thirteen had now become a sword master.

And it wasn’t just that.

The knights who were concentrating on fighting, and the people of the Todia family also opened their mouths wide.

If it had been done by someone else, she would have laughed and passed on it, but Nereid, a high-ranking spirit, seemed to believe it because her existence itself was convincing.

“Then surely I can’t do it alone. Lend me your strength, Nereid.”

“I was waiting for that.”

The moment Nereid touched his back, the ground Tina was stepping on was dug even deeper. It was strengthened by the power of the spirit.

“I’ll crush you like this!”

“Queup!”

I twisted my body to avoid it, as if it was hard to bear it as the spirit’s power was added.

Acher swings her sword and fires a series of attacks. However, Tina dodges her self-directed attacks and keeps her distance.

Then he glanced sideways at me.

“Teacher, will I do it soon?”

“Yes. Don’t kill me.”

“Can I blow off one arm?”

“No.”

“…… Then I’ll do just enough to keep my limbs from flying off completely.”

She licks her lips with regret.

“Are you relaxed enough to have a conversation in front of me?!”

Boom!

Acher’s sword glided past Tina’s throat.

I used to deal with her without her strength, but Aker, who is currently at Tina’s level, was not an opponent to be ignored.

“That can’t be. She just doesn’t want to embarrass the Master.”

Said Tina, with her feet pulled behind her farther away, as she braced herself.

“You cheeky bastard!!”

In the end, Aker, who exploded her anger, grabbed her sword with both hands and took her stance.

“Die! “Water dragon attack”!”

“Sleep… Acher!”

The knight hurriedly tried to stop him, but it was too late.

The moment his sword was swung, a dragon made of water appeared and rushed at Tina.

Seeing that, Tina stopped in her place and pulled her hand holding her sword behind her. The sneer she had on her face was long gone.

She shouted, kicking her ground at the dragon approaching her.

“Welcome to Yeonchung Island.”

The sound of something pounding hard is heard in succession.

Penetration of both upper arms, both thighs and flanks.

There were five holes in his body. At the same time, the shape of the blue dragon that was heading towards him collapsed and wet the floor.

From noble mtl dot com

“How could an attack from that distance…….”

To hit him even though the sword was out of reach meant that he used the power of the aura.

Perhaps he put his power into wind magic.

“Keuuugh!”

Acher let out a painful moan. His body staggers.

Plug the hole in his side with your hand. But the hole in his forearm didn’t seem to give him enough strength, and blood leaked from his wound and dripped to the floor.

“This, this bastard… How to attack a water dragon…….”

“Because I am stronger.”

What she did was probably offset her skills.

If you look at it as a fighting game, you could say it was a kind of ‘parring’.

Since the game world was brought in, this phenomenon of neutralizing the opponent’s skill was not too surprising.

The condition for skill offset is to release a skill that is stronger than the opponent at the right timing.

There’s no way she knew it, but it was clear that she instinctively judged that she could break Acher’s skill.

Is this a real talent?

“If it had been two years ago, I wouldn’t have been able to stop it. It must have been hit and run. But not anymore. Because I was taught by my master.”

Tina said calmly, looking down at the fallen Acher.

“An ordinary kid… No, it was…….”

“From now on, like a kid. Don’t call me kid The person who calls me a kid is a real kid.”

She’s still Tina with her absurd logic, but she seems to think the sparring is over, so she puts her sword in and says her honorifics.

Fortunately, she didn’t seem to speak arrogantly in situations other than Dalian. She was a little relieved.

“Acher! Wake.”

Nereid breathes energy into his body. Her bleeding started to stop little by little.

“Excuse me for a second.”

The knights came and put a recovery potion in Acher’s mouth, tore his clothes and sprinkle the potion all over his body.

Safely being repaired. Seeing that, Tina looks up and sees Todia where the people are.

“… Come up next.”

The knights who saw Tina standing leisurely on top of the arena were silently admiring.

“Is that Prause’s apprentice… …. So, are the other guys at that level?”

“Acher couldn’t even use his strength properly and lose… …. This can’t happen unless you’re an S-class adventurer…….”

“How can a 13-year-old…….”

Yes, yes. Keep admiring

Raise the status of the warrior. Don’t be interested in things like me.

“Is it Prause who raised that? It seems that Prause is not only strong, but also good at teaching.”

…… Huh?

“That person was said to be the hidden disciple of Phasma, who died decades ago.”

What, what are you talking about, you guys.

“No.”

[That’s right. They are wrong. Because I am Prause’s disciple.]

Not even that.

“If you accept me as a disciple, I might be able to rise to the ranks of a sword master.”

“Should I ask you a favor?”

Please don’t overestimate me with your f*cking delusions.

That was only possible because Tina was a hero.

What kind of sword master are the guys who don’t even have a name and come out as knight 1 or knight 2? Whose dog is the name of the sword master?

It was around the time when I was betting hard on myself.

“Aren’t you going to come up?”

“I’m leaving.”

At Tina’s urging, Ella steps forward. Glair grabbed her arm as she climbed into the arena.

“Ella, I will go out first. Because you are stronger than me.”

“It doesn’t matter how strong you are. I just want to see the skills of the students Prause-nim raised.”

“But… ….”

She smiles her eyes at Glair. Slowly, she removed her hand and climbed onto the arena.

Acher and the knights go down, and Tina and Ella face each other on the arena.

“Are you ready?”

Tina and Ella nodded almost simultaneously.

“Let’s finish this quickly.”

Ella gave a small smile.

“Then… let’s begin.”

The referee knight’s hand goes up.

“Start!”

Ella stretches out her hand towards Tina before she can let go.

“「The long wind」.”

Pacan!

A crackling sound that echoes with the sound of air bursting.

Tina drew her sword and blocked her handgun.

“… ….”

Tina’s hand shaking her sword. In a sudden shock, Tina looks at her sword and then at Ella.

“You can watch it if you want to. I will do it with all my might.”

“Heavy. A deterrence attack like this……. Is Ella-sama strong?”

Tina praised meekly as she repeatedly opened and closed her fists.

“I don’t think I will have time to relax this time. I will go with all my might.”

Sword energy began to form in Tina’s aura little by little.
