“Um.”
A pleasant sound that rings every 5 minutes. Crack-! Lysion stamped his foot towards Alam.
A short rest on the third day. And training started again.
It was a series of processes that took place so many times that I can’t even remember how many times. The moment when Lysion tried to take a step forward out of habit.
“Oh wow.”
Wedge! A dagger flew towards Lysion as he approached the sound of the alarm.
“······.”
Lysion turned his eyes toward the flying trajectory. Revan was looking down at Lysion from a tree branch.
The alarm sound must have been heard further away. Revan’s appearance now was possible because El and Revan approached and planned a preemptive attack on Lysion.
Student growth is a joy as a teacher. A line filled with pride was drawn on Lision’s face.
“···What does it mean?”
However, for Revan, Lysion’s image had long since become that of a demon. To the point where even that line of mouth feels like something meaningful and negative.
“Nothing. By the way, you’re throwing daggers. Is that okay?”
“I’m not without thoughts.”
Lysion kicked the ground towards Revan, who responded indifferently.
“Hmm?”
No, more accurately, I was trying to jump in. But Lysion’s feet were stuck to the ground.
For some reason, green snakes came out of the tree where Revan’s dagger was stuck and wrapped themselves around Lysion’s legs. It was one of the curses of the artifact that El had.
“It’s fascinating.”
But it wasn’t such a threatening bondage. It’s amazing to say the least. Lysion showed interest for a moment and lightly flicked his wrist to separate the snakes’ heads from their bodies.
However, in a fight between the strong, every moment is always important. The moment I briefly flicked my wrist to remove the restraints, a doll rushed out from the square.
“Great surprise attack.”
“······.”
Kagak – The swords of El and Lysion were crossed, making a bloody metallic sound.
Even when Lysion spoke, there was no reply. In L’s eyes, instead of the usual composure, there was a venom that could not be hidden.
“I know it’s a couplet, but… Lumière, that expression is a little sad.”
Lysion is also one of the elves who saw El as a child. He didn’t feel at ease because the child who was twitching his hands and feet was showing murderous intent towards him.
“Die!”
However, if you literally get beaten up for a few days and do not develop any resentment towards that person, then you are probably a more dangerous person. El dynamically twisted her waist and swung her sword horizontally.
Tadat-! Lysion strengthened his feet and leaped. I twisted my waist and avoided the sword strike with minimal movement.
evasion. After that, attack without hesitation. The foundation and endpoint of elven swordsmanship improved by Lysion. Lysion attempted to launch a counterattack that had been carved out for over 100 years.
It was a scene that had already appeared countless times in Dalian. Just before the heel struck El’s temple, Lysion instinctively twisted her waist.
“···Haha!”
“Tsk.”
Revan, who had approached secretly without even Lysion detecting him, clicked his tongue as he recalled his missed sword strike. It must have been a perfect stab.
“···Phew.”
However, even though the perfect strike missed, there was not even a trace of disappointment or regret visible in Revan and El’s eyes. The two held their swords and kicked the ground at the same time.
Kagak-! Lysion’s sword overlapped with El. And in that brief moment, Revan swung a dagger at his side.
Kaan-! Kang! Three battles were held at such a high level of technology that an old man who was crazy about swordsmanship would have been drooling if he had seen them. Lision shouted with a wide smile.
“You both have grown a lot! Really!”
What struck me the most was that the two did not even exchange a single word during this intense fight. Lysion recalled a few days ago.
-Junior! be careful!
-back! behind!
-It’s late! Maintenance needs to be done now…
The two had many conversations during sparring. To share information that the partner could not catch.
But it was different now. Even without much conversation, there were no gaps in each other’s attacks.
If your partner cannot check the information, swing your sword or throw your body. They fill each other’s empty breath and dig into the gaps created by each other without mercy.
Kagak-! Lysion was momentarily pushed back by the momentum and leaped backwards. It was to increase the distance.
“···Ha, ha.”
“······Absorption.”
Revan and El, after the offensive. The two were breathing heavily. Their stamina was depleted as they exerted all their energy for a joint attack that surpassed their level.
The situation was not conducive to continuing sparring. Their bodies reached their limits. My whole body trembled slightly. My body was screaming.
“······.”
However, the two adjusted their weapons once again without saying a word. Revan and L didn’t want to say words like ‘lost’ even if they died.
When Lysion saw that, a smile finally bloomed on his lips. It was not the sinister and threatening smile he showed during sparring, but a smile filled with genuine happiness.
“Congratulations!”
Clap clap! Lysion clapped her hands with a bright smile.
“You have completed the first step! I never thought we would catch our breath so quickly! I really couldn’t have imagined it!”
The first of Lysion’s curriculum. It was the moment when the combination of joint ventures was completed.
Lysion thought it would take at least a month for the two to get along.
“This is truly amazing! Seriously!”
However, the two achieved perfect chemistry in less than two weeks.
“You two are truly a match made in heaven! Really!”
Just as there are weapons that suit people well, there are people who are good at combining martial arts. Many factors such as trust, disposition, weapons, etc. determine those aspects.
In other words, even if two people who are not compatible try to work together, it may not be very effective. So, both of their achievements were partly due to luck. Because these two people who work so well together met.
“Thank you for your hard work! Take a short break and go to the next class-”
“···!”
“To class…?”
Even when Lysion declared the end of the first period, the fire burning in Revan and El’s eyes did not go out. After taking a moment to catch their breath, the two kicked the ground and leaped towards Lysion once again.
“···Hmm.”
In the end, Lision pulled out the lead sword from his waist again. After several clashes, the first period finally came to an end.

“···Black.”
“······.”
Andra gently patted the back of Lysion, whose eyes were watery, with an indescribable expression on her face.
-Ah, Andra.
It started yesterday. Lysion suddenly visited (invaded) Andra’s residence.
-What’s going on?
Obviously, the training was completed quickly and the talent of the two was beyond anyone’s imagination, so it was Lysion who liked him. It was embarrassing for Andra to suddenly visit with a watery voice.
-Well, that…
-Keep calm and talk.
Receiving the comfort of respected Andra, Lysion took a deep breath and began to explain.
The story was simple. After the sparring, Lysion invited Revan and El to eat.
-···why?
-Well, because I got it first.
For Lysion, it was a favor for his handsome and good-looking disciples. but.
-···no. I don’t really feel like eating.
-So do i.
Revan and L. The two flatly rejected Lysion’s invitation. Quite coldly and decisively.
In fact, Revan and El. They both thought they were superior to others. In fact, it was like that. The two of them had no one in their age group that could compete with them, and even if they searched the continent, they were talented enough to meet the standards of strong people.
-Senior, I would like to review the sparring from earlier. What do you think?
-yes. great.
In other words, we haven’t tasted much defeat so far. Those two have faced hundreds of crushing defeats. I couldn’t help but feel my stomach turn.
-Uh, well…if it’s a restoration, how about I do it too…?
-······.
Lysion asked cautiously. Still, how many days did you hang out together? But I thought, wouldn’t this be okay?
-That’s why… That’s why…!
But Revan and L. Their eyes were just cold. Lysion recalled the coolness of that moment and tapped Andra’s shoulder with his chin.
“······.”
Andra, the person in question, just kept silent. He is one of the people who knows Rishion’s education method best.
Honestly, Andra thought to herself, ‘Is it right to think that we can become friends after doing that?’ Lysion’s ferocious expression had the power to make one lose one’s affection.
“···Yes. You must have been very upset.”
“That’s what I’m saying! Well, of course it’s true that I knocked on it for a few days-”
However, it was Lysion who did important work for the elves. Andra, hiding her true feelings, patted Lision on the back and comforted him.
It took two days for the patience to accept Lysion’s whining ran out. With a shout that reached its limit, Lysion was driven out of Andra’s residence.

“······.”
Chuuk. Tables and chairs provided outside. In a sunny place, Lysion looked droopy and met Revan and L. I faced the two.
Looking at that scene, Revan and El thought to themselves. Anyway, maybe we were a little harsh? Called.
“I don’t think so.”
But the two immediately shook their heads. The demon-like actions that Lision had shown flashed through my mind. It only took a moment for mercy to disappear from both of their hearts.
But Lysion is an elf who knows what to do. Lysion began to speak while drooping.
“···What to do today.”
Rattling. Lysion opened the door of the box that was on the table. Inside, something that at first glance looked like a bright emerald was carefully stored away.
“Repairing Revan’s body. And.”
Huh. Lision stretched out his hand into the air and pulled out something wrapped in a bandage filled with letters.
“Lumière. It’s time to find your weapon.”
chin. Lysion took out two supplies and his eyes turned to Revan and El. It penetrated both.
These were unusual items no matter who looked at them. Interest rose in the eyes of both Revan and L.
Lysion’s second class. It was the moment when the reinforcement of the two’s forces began.
