Swordsmith (1)

When I was in the middle of the day when I was in the middle of the day.

Although Master guaranteed a wide range of autonomy for his disciples’ actions, he asked for a few things.

Be sure to meet some of the people in Moorim.

天下第一

Anyone who lives in Moorim has to live with the word “the best in the world” in their hearts.

Excluding Master, who looked beyond the best in the world to be the best in the world, the question of who is truly the best in the world was a topic that was often talked about by Moorim’s luxury experts, but opinions were not properly unified.

Some chose the new monk of Shaolin, some chose the current Murim lord, and another chose the Sadorenju, and so on. Though opinions differed from person to person.

The first sword in the world

There was no room for disagreement as to who the greatest swordsman was, including those who lived in seclusion.

Former Murim Lord, Gucheon Geomje (九天劍帝) Seo Muak. Born in a nameless sword family in Shanxi, he was a well-positioned figure who traveled around the Poongjin River and finally rose to the position of Lord of the Murim through numerous acts.

He acted vigorously, cutting down his bones and flesh as if he would dedicate his life to Moorim. One day, he suddenly declared that he would wash his face with gold powder, came down from the position of Lord of Murim, and disappeared.

Numerous speculations have been made about the cause of his sudden behavior, but none of them have been clarified.

Hangshan (恆山).

It was a mountain full of mysteries, so deep and distant that there was a legend that a freshman was playing.

After wandering along the majestic and rugged mountain range for a long time, we finally arrived at a small Cho-ok in the deep mountain.

And there, I met a dwarf old man with graying gray hair.

For someone carrying the arrogant name of the greatest sword in the world on his back, he looked unbelievably small.

“So, is the Heavenly Family doing well?”

When I politely greeted him and said that he had received Master’s order, he asked Master’s regards first.

“Yes, you are fine. It looks like he’ll be leaving soon…”

“Eh, it’s a problem because he’s not very human. I thought I would live alone for the rest of my life without children or disciples, but in my old age, I saw where else did you pick up a disciple.”

“The disciple I picked up from somewhere is me.”

“Truck. It’s all you know come in If the Heavenly Family sent you to me, there must have been a reason.”

I followed the old man into a small room.

I sat face-to-face with an old man in a shabby little room with only a strong scent of tea and no furniture.

“Did the Heavenly Family say anything special?”

“Yes, he just said to visit him once.”

“Kuhm, annoying.”

“yes?”

“No, there is no particular reason… Huggin, there must be no reason why there should be a reason. stay for a while It was your freedom to come, so it is your freedom to leave.”

“All right. Are there any disciples or other people visiting?”

If you see me with you, unnecessary misunderstandings may arise.

A bitterness that could not be hidden was seen on the old man’s face, who had been drinking tea quietly for a while.

“Disciple… Disciple. there was There is no meaning. There is no meaning. Everything in the world is empty… empty…”

“…”

“It’s done, I don’t know what nonsense I’m talking about in front of you. The guest room is next to it, so you can use it there.”

“All right.”

While the seasons changed several times, I spent a while talking about nothingness with the old man, chatting and playing Go, talking about Master, and the old man’s personal history.

One cold winter day when even the air seems to freeze.

“Did you see it?”

“Yes, I saw.”

“Then it happened. The one who protects my last is a mongrel bastard of the Demonic Cult, so I don’t know the history of my life…”

“Don’t you like it because you’re a mongrel of the Demonic Cult?”

“Is this guy trying not to say a word to the end?”

“…… Thank you so far.”

“Crunch… you don’t have to be thankful. Since the creation of billions of billions is bound by ties, the reason why you are here must have flowed through fate…”

“…….”

“All things come and scatter according to karmic relationships… I was born naked and roamed the river without shame… I gave the last law to those who knew the meaning… This was enough. That’s enough…”

“Your Highness, Princess Carol. Coming soon to the academy!”

The commander of the 3rd Division of the Imperial Guard, Bent, shouted in a loud voice as he rode on horseback.

After that, escorted by the guards, I rode the horse provided by the guards to the academy by the shortest route.

Princess Riena also seemed to have received a basic education, and seemed to have no problem riding a horse.

Except for breaks, we continued moving and quickly arrived at the academy.

A huge gateway to the academy.

The guards informed the academic staff in advance of our estimated time of arrival, and dean Amelia, assistant dean Johana, dean Traum, and other academic staff were there to meet us at the gate.

“Then we will go away. It was an honor to meet you. Her Highness, Princess Carol.”

Upon arriving at the gate, Bent and the other guards paid their respects and turned around and disappeared to return to the system.

“sorry. Her Highness the Princess, Prince Charles. Everything is my negligence.”

Dean Amelia looked at us and bowed her head apologizing.

“no. Because it was something no one expected. Even more so, the demons intervened…”

Princess Riena shook her head as she spoke in a voice that showed signs of fatigue.

“I’m fine too.”

From my point of view, since I saw and realized the existence of demons and demons in advance, it was rather not bad.

Danger always comes from ignorance.

“I will take you to the dormitory. We will inform you of the details of the incident tomorrow.”

“Yes, please.”

Rumors had already spread to some extent, and I felt the atmosphere inside the bachelor’s office being disturbed all the way to the Helios Hall.

Those who appeared to be investigators directly from the Empire were busily going to and from the school, and the eyes of the students passing by were full of curiosity.

“You worked hard. May you rest in peace…”

Upon arriving in front of Helios Hall, Dean Amelia bowed her head once more to apologize and left.

“Your Highness, you have worked hard.”

“I didn’t do anything, what. What would have happened if Prince Carl wasn’t by my side… Thank you so much.”

“No, go in and rest.”

After sending the princess who was tired from the long journey upstairs, he slowly widened his senses and looked around once more.

After making sure that I couldn’t detect anything other than the excited students because tomorrow was a holiday, I went into the room too.

An attempt to kidnap the princess attending the academy by demons and demons.

The case of daring to kidnap the imperial princess within the direct control of the imperial family aroused the wrath of the emperor, who usually reacted indifferently to most things.

In the end, an imperial decree was issued, and a massive demanic order was issued in all regions of the empire.

The Holy Kingdom and the Licht Church also reacted sensitively to the rumor that demonic beings were sneaky to the point of attempting to kidnap the princess, and dispatched heretic questioners and priests to search for demons with the cooperation of the empire.

In the direct control of the imperial family, even the guards stepped up to strengthen the vigilance, and especially in the case of the Shultz Academy, the imperial troops were entering everywhere with a strict security posture, shining in their eyes.

next day.

Because of the harsh life experience in Moorim, from my point of view, it felt like I was just going abroad for a while, but in the case of Princess Riena, perhaps because she grew up so finely in the imperial family, she was in no state to do anything after training. was doing

There was only a strong feeling of silence during the school holidays, and only the chirping of birds or the sound of a small wind announcing the morning in the grand banquet hall where the sun began to rise, occasionally passed by my ears.

The words the demon said while dying at my hand.

When I heard that the demon would not stand still, it seemed almost clear that the existence of the demon was stronger than my realm.

Of course, it doesn’t seem like they live in another world or they haven’t descended to the earth, but that’s something they don’t know.

When I hinted at it, I didn’t say the exact name, but seeing that it was one of the demons, it seems that there is not a single demon.

Now, compared to my previous life, my realm is getting stronger faster, but I needed to get stronger faster in order to prepare for an unexpected threat.

Beyond the extreme horse, the horse, or beyond.

Unlike the extreme end, the future is an area that I have never climbed, so I will have no choice but to work hard.

I was sitting cross-legged for a while and doing the Great Jucheon, but I heard a buzzing sword sound somewhere.

At the same time, something quickly rushed and hit me.

Sensing the atmosphere tearing menacingly, I got up from my seat and drew the Black Lightning to respond.

boom-

A silver sword that glistened in the morning sunlight, contrasting with the jet-black flashing black lightning.

And behind him, I saw an old man with gray hair standing in the same posture as he had struck down his sword.

“It was you, too.”

A voice full of interest, a clear voice.

He wore a wide-brimmed white robe reminiscent of a monk’s robe, but it was clear that it was made of a luxurious material that could not be compared to a monk’s robe.

Even though he was wearing plain clothes like a murim uniform, he couldn’t hide his sturdy physique compared to his old age.

Looking at his strong momentum, which was not pushed even compared to me who had reached the extreme end, I could guess who this old man was to some extent.

“Are you a swordsman?”

“Do you know me?”

As if the answer I quickly came up with was correct, the swordsman looked at me with strange eyes and said.

“I don’t know, but I heard that there is only one person in the academy who can have this level of momentum with a sword.”

“Yes. I am the sword of the empire, swordsmith Reinhardt.”

“Is that so.”

He replied while keeping the black lightning inside.

As long as it’s proven that he’s a swordsman, there’s no need to keep swords facing each other.

“It’s a monster…”

The swordsman also muttered as he inserted his sword.

“Why did His Highness the Swordsman come all this way? All around here are student dormitories.”

“I looked around the academy at dawn and saw a strong energy swirling around. You must be a guy named Carol.”

Are you saying that I came after detecting the flow of jinki that I created while performing the Great Jucheon at the Great Yeonmujang?

In line with the state, the spirits seemed to be quite excellent.

Seeing as you know me, it seems like you’ve already heard everything from Dean Amelia.

“you’re right.”

“The Bernsteins raised an outrageous monster. Is Marquis Heinrich doing well?”

“Yes, you are doing very well. It looks like it will last for decades to come.”

“I guess. That guy was originally yellow.”

“I’m sorry, but it’s a bit cheap to say the words of the empire’s great swordsmith.”

“what? cheap? ha ha! It is also a gag. It’s a mess. Even the sun of the Empire in front of me couldn’t say that easily.”

“sorry.”

Despite seeing it for the first time, as soon as I saw this person, I felt strangely familiar, and the words came out easily in an instant.

Hearing those words, the swordsman showed more interest than before, rather than a bad mood.

“Nothing to be sorry about. After all, a warrior speaks with a sword, not words. From the looks of it, you also seem to be close to being a born swordsman, but what about it? Aren’t you interested?”

“I don’t particularly care about weapons. I just use it according to the situation at the time.”

“Clap. Feel so good. As expected, your eyes never match this peaceful academy. What kind of path did you walk to become such a ghost’s eyes? Where should I see you?”

Before I could reply, the swordsman gained momentum, and his long sleeves began to flutter in the aftermath of the powerful jinki.

If it was a non-mu, I had no reason to refuse.

The fight against the strong was rather something I didn’t want.

“Then please.”

He took out the Black Lightning again and said it politely.
