060. Stain High Greaves.

Stain High Greaves.

He is quite a celebrity in Alteon.

A man of unparalleled talent.

The future of Alteon, who passed the ordeal of the northern forest at the age of 16.

Just as there is Winster in the current head of household, Lugrant, his actions were of great interest to many people, to the extent that rumors were openly circulating that whoever won his heart would become the next owner of Alteon.

“Did you hear that?”

“Did you hear that Stein is an external assignment instructor?”

“Isn’t that a rumor? It’s not even low-ranking knights like us, what Stain… .”

So, when the rumor first spread in Alteon that Stein was an instructor for foreign assignments, no one believed it.

Of course, Stein is too strong.

In general, low-ranking knights are not even at the level of trainees, so it is difficult to exceed the level of trainees even for those who apply as knights for a big family like Alteon.

However, it was because it was clear that if they were given a stain known as a slayer, not at the level of an apprentice slayer, all 100 of them would fail.

This would be impossible if it wasn’t for the polite words to get out of the way because it’s unnecessary.

But it was actually happening.

That too in the current Alteon.

“No, they said it was real.”

“Are you sure?”

“So, I heard they do sparring every evening at the gymnasium.”

“Who the hell is the opponent? .”

“That’s what I heard, a boy about 12 years old?”

“12 years old? How can you believe that?”

Is Stein the kind of person to deal with someone younger than Stein?

It’s really hard to even imagine.

Skill is also skill, but that guy with a high nose and strong pride must have run amok.

“Well, if you’re not really sure about it, why don’t we go together today?”

“Where are you going?”

“Well, since the gymnasium is a VIP gymnasium located to the east, there are already a few people going to see it every day, but if you’re interested, let’s go.”

“You say you won’t be kicked out even if you enter the VIP gymnasium?”

“Ah, there’s a small hill next to it, so people secretly look down from there. Or watch from outside the gymnasium.”

As if that was a really good idea, the low-ranking knights headed for the gymnasium.

There were a lot of people at the VIP gymnasium seen from the hill behind at sunset.

In addition to Stein in the center, there were many onlookers.

“If we had known it would be like this, we would have gone there too.”

“That’s right.”

However, it was already too late to regret it.

From now on, there is nothing I can do other than promise to go there.

It was around the time when people started to get tired of waiting for the boy who didn’t show up for a while.

“oh… Are you finally here?”

Soon a boy appeared in the gymnasium.

The three low-ranking knights who saw the boy opened their mouths.

“Really?”

“How old do you look?”

“hmm… Considering he’s a boy, 11 years old? 12 years old?”

“yes?”

It was amazing.

In fact, Stain’s opponent is a kid who is only about 11 years old.

There were even kids who were particularly big for their age, so it could have been younger, so it was just interesting to see such a kid having a sparring with Stein.

As if it was the same, the gymnasium with many onlookers quickly heated up.

The same was true of the three people watching the dance that started soon after.

“Is that really possible?”

“Such a young fledgling… .”

He was sparring on an equal footing with Stain.

Of course, I saw Stein fighting over a lot of restrictions, but that was still impossible even for adults.

After fighting hard for about 15 minutes, the men said after seeing Xian, who was unfortunately defeated.

“It’s good that you came, you can study in your own way.”

“right? More than anything, I enjoyed the snow.”

For a while, it seemed that Alteon would be noisy because of the rain.

* * *

The rumors that spread all over Alteon, of course, reached Rugrant, the head of the family.

Over tea together, Winster rhymed lightly about the story.

“These days, the knights have been making noise about the boy’s foreign assignments.”

“is it? It’s a big deal.”

Lugrant’s demeanor was gentle.

In the first place, there was no way he would be Stain’s opponent, so it was a leeway.

“It’s going to be a sparring that will end with a one-sided beating anyway, so there’s a lot of noise about what to see.”

“It is, but… .”

Look, Winster is also positive.

The difference between stain and cyan is overwhelming.

It was an unchanging truth even if it had been 15 days since he had given him the foreign assignment.

Contrary to Lugrant’s thoughts, however, Winster paused before adding more.

“But, according to rumors, this seems to be quite a match.”

“gibberish!”

Lugrant hit the table.

Because it was a story that didn’t make sense in the first place.

It is the difference between a slayer and a trainee.

If the gap was to the extent that it could be erased overnight, mankind would never be able to get out of the bondage with the dragon.

No matter how hard humans tried, the situation would have turned upside down the moment the talented dragon made up his mind.

Sure enough, Winster said as if there was a reason why couples were established.

“It seems that Stein has leveled it up.”

“Do something useless… .”

“He is an obedient child for his age. I think it was something you were prepared for from the moment you designated it as Stein.”

Well, it was.

It wasn’t a formally discussed story, but considering the guy’s stubbornness, it was within the predictable range.

However, the reason he was uncharacteristically excited was because Xian’s talent was much higher than expected.

Rugrant’s head ached as he knew of Stein’s stubbornness, which had been withheld for over a year despite his own invitation to choose which of his two sons to serve.

It was because the situation didn’t seem to improve much even if I called him and told him to come seriously.

“So, how about Dalian?”

“Unsurprisingly, Stein has the upper hand. But I heard that the boy who was unresponsive the first few days is now quite pushy.”

Lugrant was lost in thought, then let go of his luck.

“I’ll have to check it with my own eyes.”

For the past 15 days, I pretended not to know.

Pretend not to hear even if you hear, pretend not to care even if you care.

But now patience has reached its limit.

He had no idea that it would happen that he would go there, but after a full 15 days, this situation came to pass.

‘What level is it that makes such a fuss… .’

Seeing it with my own eyes would give me some relief.

* * *

Xian, who was actually the party to the rumor, was carefree.

It was because the road seemed to be visible little by little.

At first, Leah and Stein often beat each other day and night, saying that there is no growth without pain, but now, as the results of training come out little by little, the impatience has been shaken off.

“Now, I think I can stop with this.”

When the teacher said that it was okay to descend, Xian shed tears.

To say the least, today’s Dalian alone had great results.

I cut off the hem of Stein’s clothes, who was careless.

I haven’t been able to make a plausible attack yet, but I was very excited just cutting the hem of the guy’s clothes that I couldn’t reach.

“Well, of course I was beaten and passed out after that.”

Leah let out an admiring impression.

“Honestly, I didn’t expect you to adapt so quickly.”

“Praise me a little more.”

“It was great, young boy!”

hee hee…

I get beaten up every day, but I feel good about compliments.

I wondered if this would really be won on the day of the decisive battle after 15 days.

“It’s not going to go that easily.”

The owner of the colic-breaking voice was Drake, who had been there for 15 days.

Drake spoke for the first time in a long time.

“I want you to win this body too, but he’s still only using about 10% of his strength.”

“I know that, but… .”

Yes, this was not a condition set by Xian, but a rule Stain set at will.

However, Drake said it was more of a problem.

“So, on the other hand, there is no problem even if he overturns it at will.”

“It’s the guy who promised to level up!”

“What I mean is that you should definitely assume the worst case.”

It may be hard to believe, but Xian has grown like a monster even in that 15 days.

Fearing that someone might not be a Dragonian, his mana also grew rapidly.

Basically, as the total amount of mana increases, the physical ability increases proportionally.

Well, there won’t be any drastic changes in a few days, but the problem is that the technology has also grown.

He poured out his overflowing talent only to deal with Stein.

Even a guy named Stein didn’t know about it, but it was clear that he was going to get caught in an unexpected situation.

“that… .”

“Can you guarantee that the impatient guy won’t change his words?”

There was no

Calmly, Stein is the person the family head pointed out.

Like a ponytail, there was a higher chance of breaking a promise if it was pride or something.

‘There’s no real answer to this?’

Drake said as Sian bit his lip.

“Okay then, assuming that arbitrary rules continue to be maintained, if he holds on as he is now, are you sure you have the confidence to win?”

This was what Xian was going crazy about.

Looking at it coldly, even this was the reason why it was honestly burdensome.

It’s true that there are cards I haven’t shown him yet, but even considering that, I honestly wasn’t confident.

Drake sighed deeply when the reaction was not good.

“It’s time for a trump card.”

“A secret demand?”

When Xian tried to say something, Drake cut him off with a single knife.

“It’s not enough to be non-spiritual.”

Sian pursed his lips.

“I need something else. Is there anyone who can help you?”

Sian looked at Drake clearly.

“Except for this body, you bastard.”

Of course, Xian knew that too.

I just did it as a joke. As a joke.

But in vain…

“Is there anyone in the Alteon family who can help me… .”

Sian, who was talking, shut his mouth.

When I thought about it, it was because there was one person that came to mind.

“Look there. Who are you?”

Sian said at Drake’s words.

“My aunt.”

I have Aunt Lacilla.
