48 – Won’t you be my disciple?

I arrived at the gym with determination.

In the gym, around Professor Lily, video recording devices, magic analysis devices, and magic buffer devices were installed.

A device that literally analyzes mana and alleviates aggressive mana.

These analyze the mental world and prevent accidents.

“Evan-kun, you’re here.”

As I passed the entrance, Sword Saint Mayer spoke to me.

“hahahaha, I was able to prepare a lot with what Evan said last time.”

Pointing out the devices with his hand, Mayer continued.

“You will see good results today.”

A confident voice.

Let’s see how it goes.

I hope you don’t spill what I suggested.

“Come see me, Evan. Professor Cynthia?”

“Ah… Yes, Professor Meyer.”

“Are you okay?”

At Mayer’s words, Cynthia looked at me with a puzzled face.

Cynthia is what brought me. Did you ask Cynthia?

I nodded.

It doesn’t matter where you look.

Cynthia lowered her gaze with a somewhat regretful expression.

“…… Yes.”

“Okay, Professor Cynthia will be busy writing. Come on, shall we get ready soon?”

Mayer clapped his hands.

Pair!

“I am ready!”

The male professor waved his hand at the video recorder.

Your name was Khan.

Khan looked at me and smiled all over his face.

“Evan is also here, welcome~”

Kan raises one arm and shakes it widely.

I nodded slightly.

“Okay, Professor Lily, don’t completely immerse yourself in yourself, listen to me and embody it.”

Sitting in the center of the gym, Lily nodded her head slightly.

‘It’s a good decision to choose Lily for the experiment.’

Lily de Francois.

A woman who is not a swordsman, but a professor at the Charles Academy.

The reason why Lily was chosen as a professor is because she can handle multiple image worlds.

Lily can make anything she imagines into reality.

That’s why she was also called ‘Lily the Embodier of the World of Multiple Images’.

“Okay, let’s start with step 1.”

After checking all the equipment and people, Mayer gave the signal.

Lily implemented the image world.

The shape of a sword floating above Lily’s head.

It’s a small dagger.

Cynthia, Jeanne, and Chensia worked hard to record the magic wave.

“Make a bigger sword this time.”

At Mayer’s words, the sword grew a bit longer.

However, the magic contained in the sword did not change.

“Hmm… There is no change just by increasing the volume. Lily, what did you think when you made the dagger and the long sword?”

“Lily…… Just… I thought let’s make a short sword, let’s make a long sword.”

“Okay. Then, when making a short sword, I will catch a mouse, and when making a long sword, I will catch a cow. Think about it.”

Lily nodded and realized the two swords.

A small dagger and a long long sword.

A change began to occur in each mana.

Tsu tsu tsu…… !

A short sword contains a small amount of magic, and a long sword contains a large amount of magic.

Mayer smiled in repentance.

“That’s a success.”

The verification test was successfully completed.

‘As expected, the swordsman. It makes thinking flexible.’

The swordsman did not dwell on his failures.

When the magical power contained in the sword did not change, the Sword Master did not panic and spoke to Lily.

Change your mind.

The result was a success.

The magical power of the embodied image world has increased.

This matches the answer I want.

‘…… Shall we continue going for now?’

There must be a connection with the Sword Master.

She’s one of the few, really decent opponents.

“Evan?”

As I was about to leave the gym, the Sword Saint called me.

She was just thinking about making friends with her, and it’s nice that she talked to her on her own.

“Would you like to see me for a while?”

“Good.”

“Ooh.”

When I expressed my affirmation, the swordsman reacted unexpectedly.

Since I have to meditate only during class, there is no doubt that I ignored the Sword Saint.

Not now.

“However, please finish within two hours.”

Time is running out to go see Maya after stopping by the gravity room.

“Heh heh, I get it. Professor Kahn, Professor Cynthia! Please clean up after me!”

“Leave it to me, Professor Meyer!”

“Okay, Professor Meyer.”

“Zane, Chencia. Both help.”

Khan showing her one arm abruptly raised, and Cynthia slightly lowering her head.

There are many eyes that look at Mayer and me curiously, but I ignore them.

One of them, Jeanne, answered awkwardly, and Chensia answered lively.

“Yes… ….”

“Yes, Master!”

Mayer leaves it up to everyone.

The eldest person is comfortable with this aspect.

Meyer guided me to her own private laboratory.

A tile-roofed house with a pond.

It was a space only for Sword Saint Mayer, far away from the professor’s research building.

“hahahaha, I like the Eastern way. It puts me at ease.”

The way of the East that Mayer mentioned means tile-roofed houses.

Valua, the family of the Sword Saint, is located in the southeast.

It is not strange to say that you know tile-roofed houses.

“I like quiet places too.”

“Have Eban-kun ever been to a tile-roofed house?”

“Yes.”

She roamed the lands of the empire as she hunted down the Witch King.

There was a time when I slept in a tile-roofed house that had all collapsed.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been in a perfect form like now.

Once inside, Mayer pointed to the verandah and told me to wait a moment.

“I’ll bring the tea. Do you like green tea?”

“I don’t enjoy it, but it’s okay.”

“Good. Then we’ll talk while drinking.”

Mayer went to get a teacup.

Green tea is good for digestion and brain, so it doesn’t matter if you eat it.

The texture of the wooden floor presses against her hips and hands.

Old veranda.

The sound of the brook in the pond makes my ears ring… Her heart sinks.

What is the swordsman trying to say?

After a while Mayer brought out two teacups and put one of hers in front of me.

“It is called Ujeon Tea. It’s a type of green tea, so drink it comfortably.”

I nodded.

Mayer sat down next to me and raised her hand.

“Ah, as I said beforehand, you don’t have to be polite. Tea ceremony etiquette is such a headache for me.”

Neither did I have the intention of following etiquette.

He nods once more, picks up the tea, and smells the incense.

Bitter green tea scent.

I took a sip and sat down towards Mayer.

“Let’s talk now.”

“Whoops… Alright, Evan. You seem to want to get to the point, so I’ll get to it. Do you have any intention of becoming my disciple?”

I was just talking about something… Did you mean to come as a disciple?

There is nothing to think about for a long time.

“No.”

I refused.

I don’t know which part of me the Sword Master liked, but I have no intention of becoming anyone’s disciple.

With time, no one will be able to follow me with a sword.

The Sword Saint is no exception.

Mayer squirted the tea water.

“Puha! Kek, kek! Ugh, sorry!”

“It’s okay.”

“Kuk, hoo… I am very surprised…… Huh… Evan-kun, do you know what it means to be my disciple?”

“Yes, shouldn’t I learn your swordsmanship?”

I am interested in the Sword Master’s sword, but I have no intention of becoming a disciple.

From noble mtl dot com

It is obvious that useless things will interrupt my training time.

“That’s not all. If you become my disciple, you will be treated wherever you go. You can become a commander right away when you go to the battlefield, and if you want to join a certain knight order, I can write a letter of recommendation for you. This is very good for employment…….”

“I am not interested.”

“……….”

Mayer stiffened like a stone while holding the teacup.

I’m persistent, but even the swordsman can’t interfere with my decision.

“If you keep saying the same thing, I will go.”

“Okay…… Wait a minute, Evan. Listen. I watched Evan closely today… Compared to a month ago, his physical ability has improved a lot. I heard that you have been training very hard lately.”

That’s not wrong.

Since most of the time is spent training the body.

Mayer continued.

“Today’s verification experiment is Evan-kun’s contribution.”

“I didn’t do anything.”

In this experiment, I just watched.

I didn’t even have to help because the people in the study group did it on their own.

Mayer shook his head.

“If Evan-kun hadn’t given his opinion at the last study meeting, this kind of demonstration would have been impossible. Is it so. I’m eyeing Evan’s excellent theoretical knowledge. Would you say you saw the potential?”

“……….”

Did you see the hypothesis I brought out and be interested in it?

I thought.

At this rate, the Sword Saint would only say to become a disciple.

Even now, they are persuading me by claiming various benefits.

‘…… I just want to go because I feel like it.’

Because it’s not easy to meet someone like the swordsman.

I decided to offer a deal.

“You cannot be a disciple. However, sometimes you can make time for it. It would be nice if we could discuss the sword.”

This is a kind of consideration.

The swordsman is interested in my knowledge, so we can talk about the sword.

If you talk, you’ll be able to know the knowledge of the Sword Saint, so it’s a good story for me too.

“…… Talk about swords?”

“Yes. Didn’t you say you noticed my theoretical knowledge? So it would be good to have a discussion.”

“……….”

The content I presented at the last study meeting is something that only Masters would know.

Perhaps the swordsman would be curious. How far i know

The Sword Master looked at me expressionlessly.

It looks troubled.

Mayer took a sip of the right tank tea and let out a sigh.

“Haa…… All right. This old thing should understand… By the way, don’t you think it’s just a suggestion?”

You don’t have to say it, you take it as a deal.

I like that he speaks fast.

I spoke with a slight smile.

“Yes, there are conditions.”

“Tell me.”

“I want outsiders to use the academy library and gravity room. Professor Meyer, please make that possible.”

“An outsider…… ? It’s not difficult, but who are you going to use it for?”

“I am a disciple.”

The academy’s facilities are good for training.

Wouldn’t it be nice if Maya could use the gravity room and the library?

When I mentioned the disciple, Mayer’s expression went blank.
