The Sub-Protagonist Is Retiring

26 – 026.Reunion with the Sword Master

“Ahhhhh… !”

After the date with Marianne, I couldn’t eat even 5% of my strength, let alone 10%, and collapsed on the bed with a moan.

It turned out to be a miracle that I sucked about 30% the first time.

In the end, I had to hold on to the blanket with a grunt like someone who had just finished eating.

[This is why people shouldn’t be greedy.]

“I only absorbed 30%, but didn’t my level jump up a notch? Of course, there is no choice but to be greedy.”

[So what was the result?]

“sh*t.”

I had nothing to say because it was my fault.

‘But I couldn’t help it… … .’

From the beginning, he came out as a complete character, and Bern’s growth was disastrously slow.

Perhaps that’s why he seemed so excited when he was able to manifest advanced magic.

Advanced is a level that a 6th grade or higher wizard can reach.

Bern’s body, a 5th-class magician in his later years, absorbed the power and became a 6th-class wizard.

Who would stand still in the presence of attractive powers that would make their mouths water?

I see very few

[Still, didn’t you eat about 3% more? Be satisfied with that.]

“Okay… !”

It was definitely the power of God, so even 3% was a good thing.

Although he couldn’t break through the higher level, he gained new abilities.

‘Instantaneous world’.

You can see one second of the world line and move faster than others.

In Part 9, Vern gained the ability that he awakened while fighting Gwangryong in less than a year.

In other words, I have already caught up with Bern two years later.

Even if it’s an awakening using a shortcut, wouldn’t it be great if it became stronger?

‘My growth potential is truly frightening!’

[Isn’t it conscienceless to call the power of growth when someone stole something?]

‘You keep hitting the bone from earlier? Is there anything you’re sorry about?’

[There is no such thing!]

The person himself denied it, but I felt the sad feelings felt in the sentence.

I don’t know what touched Frach’s planting.

Had he been jealous when he saw me dating Marianne?

However, I had never heard of a sword being jealous.

Even in Ego Weapon from Adog Choi, that’s… … .

‘Is there?’

Before the founding of the Holden kingdom, there was a story that a hero who died fighting against demons married a holy sword.

However, that was an old story, and the setting was that the Holden family spread such rumors out of envy of the hero.

“… … Oh, no way!”

I firmly believe that it is not. till now.

***

The morning came after the last night in the elven forest.

As always, I thought Renee would come running and wake me up loudly.

However, this morning started in a calm mood.

From nob le mt l. co m

No, it was a spur-of-the-moment situation pretending to be calm.

“good morning. Teacher!”

When I opened my eyes and stood up, the first person I saw was Lynn, not Renee.

Since when have you been waiting?

As if she was standing at the entrance waiting for me to wake up, she immediately bowed politely and greeted me.

The mere fact of being here is surprising, but I hesitated without realizing it.

“Why are you here… … ah! Were you the blind prosecutor who helped me by any chance?”

“That’s right.”

I was dubious about the characteristic of being blind, but I didn’t know it was really Rin.

That’s also true, because she spends most of her spare time with her one and only sister.

Rin, freed from the burden of medical expenses with the medicine I gave her, thought she would spend time with her younger brother.

However, the fact that he came all the way from the capital to help me came to me a little differently.

“Renee?”

“… … .”

“You’ve been doing that ever since I came. It seems that I have hairs that I hate.”

Meanwhile, Renee, who was sitting by the bed, was glaring at Rin.

It seems that Rin is wary of me, thinking that she came to harm me.

It was meaningless, but it was meant to protect me, so I lightly tapped Renee on the head.

“You don’t have to be vigilant.”

“Yeah, but is it still too early to trust her?”

“If she had intended to harm me, I wouldn’t have bothered to rescue the saintess.”

“Isn’t there a possibility that this is a high-level operation to induce people to be alert?”

“The magic tower is behind this incident. Would you even try to fool me by pretending to be the Magic Tower? To be honest, I don’t think so.”

He doesn’t look down on his hatred for the Mage Tower as a group that doesn’t hesitate to do sly and dirty things.

You can understand the reason just by looking at the suspicious attitude of Sannim, whom you met the night before.

Originally, I had to bow my head as soon as I heard the story of the magic tower.

The magic tower was the second most prosperous organization in the kingdom after the knights.

70% of wizards in the kingdom belong to the Mage Tower.

The Mage Tower collects and monopolizes the knowledge that wizards possess.

Because that knowledge is revealed only to the magicians who belong to it, even now their power is growing exponentially.

‘Even the first Mage Tower owner was a 8th class wizard who was 2 levels higher than me.’

Breaking through the realm is difficult enough that I will put on a live show to try to raise it one level higher.

However, there is a person who is two levels higher than me, and what about the influence of the forces he built?

I think everyone will understand without having to explain it painfully.

“Anyway, don’t push yourself too hard. It’s disrespectful to someone who risked their lives to help.”

“… … all right.”

“Thank you for your consideration. Teacher!”

Joy and sorrow crossed between the two women.

A sullen Renée and a brightly smiling Rin are delighted.

I don’t know what kind of chaos this is from this morning.

First of all, Renee decided to appease her later, and I looked at Rin.

“So, why did you come to see me in broad daylight? Did the medicine I gave you have any side effects?”

“no. The efficacy of the medicine passed down by the teacher was outstanding! Thanks to that, my younger brother is still happily running around.”

“That is fortunate. So you’re here to repay me, right?”

“That’s right.”

“great job. Thanks to your help, things went a lot easier.”

“Thank you for appreciating my hard work!”

I received help, but it is a strange situation in which I am also grateful.

Rather than feeling good, I was a little scared.

If I told Rin to jump into the lava, would it feel like he would actually jump into it?

I sensed such madness in Rin.

“Well, in any case, starting with this incident, our relationship with Eun-Won ends with this. Now, even if I live with my younger brother in the royal capital… … .”

“Ah, it’s still not enough!”

I was startled by Rin’s loud voice.

In the original work, Rin is always a quiet and quiet character.

It was the first time for me as a reader to see her so passionate.

“What are you missing?”

“The teacher’s healing of my younger brother’s incurable disease was close to a miracle, while I only swung my sword a few times!”

“Still, you pretended not to see Renee and you ended up losing the Mage Tower and Chuck because you helped me, didn’t you?”

“The previous client died for some reason, so you don’t have to worry about it! Besides, the Mage Tower usually treats me with respect, so I was going to lose Chuck someday anyway.”

Come to think of it, the Magic Tower hated Rin extremely.

Instead of losing sight, Rin was born with the blessing of being able to feel mana with her whole body.

Seeing that she became a swordsman instead of a wizard, the owners of the Mage Tower lamented deeply.

It’s lamentable, to put it mildly. Actually, they were lewd bastards who wanted Rin to become a magician and play with them.

In any case, the Mage Tower looked down on Rin for choosing the path of the sword even after receiving the blessing of Mana.

So, there was a setting that the wizards belonging to the Mage Tower would quarrel whenever they faced Rin.

“You are suffering too.”

“it’s okay. Just the fact that my teacher recognizes my hard work makes me feel like I have been rewarded for all my hard work.”

“Put some saliva on your mouth and speak.”

Honey will flow from your ears.

I know that my good deed meant a lot to Rin. Even so, her attitude was undeserved favor.

Even flatterers are at the level of asking for instruction with their heads pierced.

“sister!”

It was then.

A child who looked to be about 5 years old burst open the door and came inside.

Then he hugged Rin tightly and smiled brightly.

“Lewen? Didn’t your sister tell you to play outside?”

“But I also want to see the face of my older brother who helped me!”

“Ugh… !”

Rin shakes her head and smiles, saying that she can’t stop it.

You show that kind of side in front of the always arrogant Lindo family.

I knew it through the setting book, but it was fresh to see it with my own eyes.

“Lewen, the person over there is the one who healed you.”

“The older brother my older sister said… !”

“huh. It’s him.”

“Wow!!”

A little child suddenly runs up to me and jumps onto the bed.

He hugged me tightly and his eyes were shining.

“Thank you for curing me!”

“Uh… ? That, yes.”

Rewen’s expression overflowed with pure joy.

I only used drugs to convince Rin.

The fact that there is a child who is so happy was new to me.

I scratched my cheek awkwardly, but then I stroked the child’s head.

Then the child started to laugh out loud. I thought it was good to help.

[The painting looks like a family.]

‘What a family is, it’s just a meeting between a tall man and a kid.’

[Is that so? But that girl seems to think differently?]

“huh?”

At Prach’s words, I took my eyes off the child and looked at Rin.

She lowered her head and murmured softly.

“… … If I had a family with my teacher, would I be able to see these scenes every day? Whoops! Whoop whoop!”

weird.

I guess I only told you to spit in your mouth, not to drooling?
