I Became the Heavenly Demon of the Academy

Swordlight 劍狂 (4)

The secret strategy of demons and demons is a serious threat even to the Franz Empire, the strongest country on the continent.

The outside enemy is rather easy.

Which countries are considered to be great countries? A union of kingdoms?

The reason why the Empire leaves them alone is because they don’t feel the need to expand their territory further, if the Empire’s consensus is gathered in one place.

And if that is continental unity.

Soon, the only remaining state on the continent will be the Empire.

The external enemy is not difficult. But not the enemy within.

As evidenced in history, the advent of high-ranking demons is a serious threat enough to lightly annihilate some countries.

If such a thing happened near the islands, even the largest empire would not be able to avoid internal disaster.

Based on that judgment, swordsmith Reinhardt decided to stay at the academy for a while.

“Your Highness, the princess, you have changed beyond recognition.”

It wasn’t just about a matured appearance.

If the swordsman felt that Princess Riena, whom he had seen in the past, was like a spark that flew in all directions because her energy had not been refined, despite her young age.

Now, even though it has an incomparably greater energy than it did back then, it was stably sinking like a calm lake.

Considering Princess Riena’s natural yogi characteristics, this was close to a miracle.

“Yes, I learned from Prince Carol. How to handle energy and how to use hands. How to walk.”

“Is that him again?”

“Doesn’t Prince Baden not like Prince Charles?”

“Could that be? Rather, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen him, and my heart goes out to him.”

“is it so…? From what you’re saying, you seem to be full of dissatisfaction with Prince Carol…”

“There are a lot of complaints. I wonder why a guy with no blood on his head acts like an old man who has lived through the world. Young people need to act like young people.”

The swordsman put on a bitter expression and stroked his white beard. Seeing a child grow into an adult quickly in a harsh world was something he’d been tired of watching from the point of view of a swordsman who had lived a long life, but even considering that, Carol was too harsh.

“You know what?”

“What do you mean?”

“When I first saw Prince Charles, it was much worse than now. At that time, the tone was like a person who had lived only in the mountains with a really old man and came down to the city for the first time. I guess I’m getting used to it now.”

“Is that so.”

“Yeah, because it just happened. ‘What a waste! Yes! There is none!’ While holding the full weight of the expression.”

The swordsman naturally smiled at the sight of Princess Riena imitating Carol exaggeratedly.

“Her Highness seems to be concerned about him.”

“That… is it?”

Princess Riena, who was slightly dazed, began twisting her hair with her fingers as if she was embarrassed.

“Cluck, how are you? Isn’t it like that when young men and women stick together?”

“Don’t make fun of me, Lord Baden.”

The swordsman smiled kindly at Princess Riena, who opened her eyes wide and pretended to be solemn.

“It’s not farming. That is, as you live in the world. Finding someone you can trust is harder than you think. Even though I’ve lived close to a hundred years.”

“Is Prince Karl a trustworthy person in the eyes of the Duke of Baden?”

“Heh heh… That’s a difficult question. It is only a small part of what is inside a person that can be known from the outer skin.”

“Is that so…”

Princess Riena pursed her lips in regret.

“The decision is made by Her Highness, the princess. It’s just that. In the eyes of this old man, he is someone you can trust.”

“is that so?”

When the swordsman spoke positively about Carol, Princess Riena’s face brightened as she raised her head.

“yes. Actually, isn’t it? The kind of martial arts that Her Highness has learned are not something you can easily pass on to others. It looks like there was no price, is that right?”

“yes. I didn’t even ask for an example from my master. Although I can call you Master at will.”

“Clap. To a martial artist, martial arts are everything to himself. Did you do that without even asking for an example from your teacher? It is absolutely not the case.”

“Why… why? Something that is no different from everything you have to me?”

“I don’t know. That would be something Her Highness, the princess, should find out. It’s not a matter for me to interfere.”

“It’s difficult…”

“The most difficult thing is to be originally human.”

“Ah, we have arrived. Thank you, Lord Baden.”

Princess Riena, who had been walking silently for a while, bowed her head and disappeared into the classroom.

The Swordsman, who had been watching the scene quietly, looked up at the wide open blue sky, then turned around with a soft smile on his lips.

smart.

“This is Yulia.”

“come in.”

After the swordsmanship class ended like that, Yulia, who had recovered herself, came to my room.

Like Helios Hall, Schulz Academy’s dormitories have a basic principle of segregation of men and women, so Yulia’s face as she entered my room was strangely tense.

If caught from a student’s point of view, there was a high possibility that it would be a reason for disciplinary action.

Rumors may spread.

“Master.”

Yulia entered the room and bowed politely.

“Since we are in the same student’s position, there is no need to take the teacher’s example. Someone might look at you awkwardly.”

“Never mind, this is just what I want to do.”

I’ve felt this since swordsmanship class, but Yulia seemed to have a personality that didn’t change once she made up her mind.

“do whatever you want.”

“yes.”

I just have to give up on this part.

Stubbornness like a steel tendon will help you learn swordsmanship.

I was a little concerned about the lack of flexibility.

“Since you have decided to become my disciple, I will judge your condition objectively.”

“I will listen.”

Yulia answered as she sat with an angular posture reminiscent of a soldier.

“Your realm is second-class unmanned. In terms of knighthood, it’s around the 3rd level. Not bad considering my age, but you know that.”

“…yes.”

“A state is like a wall that rises endlessly the higher you go up. At first, anyone can easily jump over it if they try, but at some point, you will face a wall so high that you can’t even see the end. And unfortunately, the height of the wall depends on the talent.”

“I understand.”

“Swings the sword ignorantly. This is not the answer.”

In Yulia’s case, it was a bit better.

In order to raise the level of Seokdu, which is close to Dunjae, the many worries I had with Master remained in my head.

If I had to start from the beginning, no matter how difficult the country would be.

Anyway, it’s just that it’s lacking compared to geniuses and talented people, but Yulia still has better talents than general talents.

“What can I do?”

thud!

“First of all, these are the things you need to memorize.”

I handed over the books I had written down quickly while staying up all night.

Human anatomy and blood flow.

Basic knowledge of the operation of the machine.

The terms necessary for learning martial arts are translated and organized into the languages of this world.

flawless foundation.

“What is this…?”

Yulia’s pupils shook when she saw the book on the table, as if she hadn’t expected it to be like this.

I came here to learn martial arts, so it’s like studying it out of the blue.

Can not help it.

Unless she’s a genius like Princess Riena, who can even apply it on her own after guiding the operation of a novel machine several times, Julia has no choice but to build it thoroughly from theory to step by step.

“I wrote it myself. There will be many concepts that are unfamiliar to you, so if there is something you do not know, ask right away. Worrying alone is a waste of time.”

“All of this… I get it. I will learn it with the determination to die.”

Even so, he quickly calmed down and returned to his clear eyes again.

“And before that, let’s learn one mental method.”

“Symbeop?”

Yulia opened her eyes wide and asked back.

Can’t human beings overcome the limits of their innate talents?

It was the first question I asked while looking at Seokdu.

In conclusion, the answer is ‘absolutely not’.

Most of Moorim’s martial arts were developed step by step, starting with the lower half, then the middle, and then the upper rank.

In other words, being able to use intentions by raising the realm.

It’s not the same as saying that the war with the upper ranks has been developed.

Unlike when you use only lower-end or middle-end battles, the first thing you feel when you start developing upper-end battles is

My head gets better.

You won’t forget what you’ve seen once, and you’ll immediately feel that all kinds of abilities such as instantaneous thinking, judgment, and concentration have clearly improved.

In a way, it can be seen as natural.

Sangdanjeon was no different from the human brain.

How can I make a blunt or bumjae smart?

You just need to teach martial arts that develop Sangdanjeon.

It was the simplest, most obvious answer.

Although many martial arts of Moorim are based on the bottom battle near the navel, there were no martial arts based on the top battle, including the shaman’s double heart attack.

It was easy to say, but…

faced a fatal challenge.

The martial art based on the top battle was terribly difficult.

Even the geniuses shook their heads, all of them had an astonishing level of difficulty.

The most obvious answer is to develop the upper stage battle, but due to the martial arts that develop the upper stage battle, it is impossible to even enter Dunjae or Beomjae due to the fatal difficulty.

Resolving this contradiction was enough to make even Master, who was close to being the best of all times and times, wander for a while.

It would not be strange to describe it as the greatest challenge on earth.

After so many years of research, an absurd level of martial arts was finally born.

Unfortunately, Seokdu, which needed this deep gong the most, did not have enough time to learn it properly.

分光如意心功

Human thinking is also a kind of electrical signal after all.

Wouldn’t it be enough to strengthen everything from the brain and the nerves through which thoughts pass through to the blood vessels nearby?

Originating from such a simple ignorant thought, it could be seen as a new engineering school that will remain for a long time in Moorimsa in a different meaning from the Cheonma Shingong.

The disadvantage of the difficulty of martial arts dealing with upper level warfare was also solved by changing the idea of developing upper level warfare step by step.

However, this deep hole was not without its problems.

bang!

“This… what is this…?”

As you can see from Yulia’s bewildered look when I took out books from the back and piled them high.

If it was a fatal flaw of this deep hole, the quantity was enormous.

Thanks to that, the paper and ink requested by the academic staff were not enough, so I had to rush to the Schultz Free Imperial City, even writing light balls.

“You don’t have to learn everything from scratch. It is a martial art made to be learned step by step, one by one, according to the level of difficulty.”

“How can something like this exist… how can there be so many of them?”

“If you have a clear memory, you can translate it into writing. If you use martial arts, it’s no big deal.”

“yes…?”

“Anyway, you can learn this while reading the basic theory book above. It would be best to try to learn this first. To put it simply, it’s a deep hole that improves your brain.”

“Ah… I see.”

“Then try following me.”

As with Princess Riena, after making her sit cross-legged, she induced her to move and learn deep gong naturally.

While breathing in the raw energy, the takgi inside Yulia’s body was also burned little by little to the point where it was not burdensome.

Unlike Princess Riena, who took care of herself with just a little help, Yulia continued to help me with my fortune-telling throughout the night, but it still seemed too much to do on her own.

“Sorry, Master.”

Yulia herself must have realized that as well, and after the fortune telling ended, she put on a slightly sullen expression.

“Even if the Bwanggwang Yeoui Simgong is relatively easy, it is a martial art that deals with the upper level war, so it is natural that it takes time. Don’t worry, come tomorrow at this time. If you stick with it, you will soon learn it without difficulty.”

“All right. Then I’ll just step back. Master, thank you for today!”

“okay. Good job.”

Watching the back of Yulia as she struggled to leave the room carrying a bunch of books, I also prepared for the next schedule.

It will soon be dawn, so other disciples will be waiting too.

Human work is also unknown.

I came in as a student and made two disciples who didn’t even exist in Protestantism.

“Greetings, Carol.”

On the way back to Helios Hall after class.

A figure in dazzling golden guard armor stood up from a chair in the garden and called out to me.

“Sir Bent. Long time no see. What happened until the bachelor’s degree…?”

It was Bent, the captain of the guards who escorted me to the academy during the attempted abduction of Princess Riena.

“Didn’t I tell you before? I will definitely tell His Majesty the Emperor directly about this matter.”

“Yes, it is.”

“After I finished my report, His Majesty wanted to see Prince Carol in person.”

“Are you talking about me?”

“That’s right. I came because you wanted to see me quietly. Her Highness, Princess Riena is also with us.”

I didn’t know that the emperor would be interested in me.

“When can I go?”

“You can leave in time for the holiday. It’s a system, so it’s nearby. When the time comes, a carriage sent by the imperial family will arrive in front of where you are staying.”

“…All right. Then I will be ready.”

Speaking of the emperor of an empire, he is the pinnacle of this world.

Unlike Moorim, this was a world where soldiers and coffins were closely related.

I was also curious about who the emperor was.

It wouldn’t have been a bad intention if he had asked to meet quietly for saving Princess Riena.

There’s nothing wrong with meeting you once in a while.
