episode_0013

A noble hero and the king of the Fenris demon nation. Griaat Fenries.

He has a scary, stern face, but he is softer at heart than you might think.

“First, sit down. Because I think the story will be long.”

“I’ll just bring something to drink.”

We sat down at the table and continued talking.

“Where should I start talking? You know about the customs of noble people, right?”

“To have your horn hurt is to lose your pride. The weapon is a blunt object. Men learn martial arts, women learn witchcraft.”

“Correct answer. It used to be mandatory, but now it is a custom that has disappeared. However, there are still many people who value that custom. The higher your status, the more so.”

In human terms, my family is a master of swordsmanship, so I feel like we make sure our children learn swordsmanship.

Dwarves learn forging for men and brewing for women. The rabbit beast acts as a searcher. Vampires only drink the blood of members of the opposite sex. The same custom existed.

“You said you fought with Barney. How was the fighting style?”

“I used a strike using a huge mace and a heavy pressure attack using the ether of gravity. I don’t know exactly because I didn’t fight for a long time.”

‘At this level, you can understand the problem.’

“Miss Barney looks a lot like you.”

“Yes. They look so much alike. His fighting style, his blunt expression, and actually his soft heart.”

“I’m a princess, but are you discriminating against me?”

“I praise you on the outside, but not on the inside. Since Bunny is also a princess, she knows what’s inside those people.”

“Didn’t you and the queen help?”

“When Barney was born, there was a war, so the time I couldn’t see him was even longer. Also, since the queen was injured, I guess they didn’t want to worry her. After the war ended, it was too late to do anything.”

Is it a tribal issue? Or is war the problem? If you think about it, the Majin Kingdom is a king and queen. Both are the only countries that went to war.

‘If you listen to the story, isn’t it because you want to be recognized for your skills that you challenge a strong person to a duel?’

“I will try to become friends with you.”

“Don’t talk about Griat. Try to become friends naturally.”

“… I’ll try my best.”

Is it possible when there is no consensus? If you bring up the last duel, I think we can talk about it. Since we have classes tomorrow, let’s go there then.

“Perina. Come here”

When I approached Monica, she climbed on the chair. As I lowered my body to match my sister, she stroked her head.

‘I’m embarrassed’

“Perina. It is important to curse. It is true that I entered the academy for that purpose. However, rather than focusing on getting things done, you should focus on making friends. When nobles approach someone, they assume suspicion and go in. There’s nothing different about kids.”

There is nothing wrong with what Monica said. I too am suspicious when people approach me, and there is no way that children who have been learning politics from a young age would not be suspicious.

“I understand. Sister.”

“I believe Perrin will do well. You have a nice personality and a pretty face.”

“Sister. It’s pretty…”

“Anyway, if you get a girlfriend, you have to tell your sister! Got it?”

“I understand.”

“Sister, I’ll just go. See you next time.”

Sister Monica left the dormitory after saying those words. It’s the same when it comes, but it’s too sudden.

‘Miss Barney. Miss Seluna.’

I can’t ignore the requests of people who helped me.

.

.

.

“This is Instructor Monica, who has been appointed as the ether practical professor. Please take care of everyone.”

Why is that sister there?

Obviously, it was a different professor at the entrance ceremony.

“Monica. Originally, the instructor…”

“I asked politely, so he gave in.”

Is this really a concession?

A hero is said to be an instructor. Is it possible to stop him? Also, a practical lecture on ether?

‘The instructor whose name I forgot. My sister is sorry.’

“Ether practical classes practice different skills for each person. We will divide them according to each person’s ether nature and combat method. Those who succeed in a technique move on to another technique.”

After that. My sister divided about 100 students into several groups.

‘If there are 100 people, 10%. Perhaps because it is Morco, there are many people who have learned the ether.’

The group I belong to has 34 people.

Miss Barney. Miss Seluna. Prince Sirion. There were many people like Prince Badric who took close combat classes.

“Now, pay attention. This group will practice the art of assimilating ether into their weapons. It’s different from sword energy or attribute swords, so focus.”

My sister took out the dagger and created ether around the weapon.

“If you put mana into this dagger and swing it, it becomes sword energy. When wielded while using magic, it is an elemental sword. If you put ether in a sword and swing it, it is no different from mana. It’s just a sword with a slightly special attribute.”

The ether turns into poison and flows into the blade. As I swung the knife, the poison flew towards the target and melted the part it hit.

“This is how mana has been used so far. However, if you assimilate ether into the blade, the sword itself becomes a magical sword.”

This time, ether entered the dagger. Although there is no change on the outside, a huge amount of ether is spread throughout the dagger.

“The ether is specialized for killing living things, so it is difficult to see through a target. So, let me show you through goblins. If students also need goblins, please tell the teaching assistant.

She cut the goblin’s body with a knife. However, no change occurred in the goblin’s body.

“Instructor, there is no change.”

“Please wait a moment. Poison takes some time.”

After about 5 seconds, the loudly shouting goblin’s movements weakened. His eyes were bloodshot, his mouth was foaming, and his head hung limp.

“There is no injury, but the poison has entered the body. This is ether. If the user wants it, it is invisible and leaves no scars. Aetherial in destruction, Griaat’s blunt force shattered even water. With the ether of the holy sword, Britt changed all swords into holy swords.”

She swung the dagger again, and the goblin’s skin rotted away.

“The skill you will practice is assimilating your weapon into ether. It is made from ether itself.”

A technology to create weapons out of ether itself.

If you use that technique, you can subdue your opponent without having to curse your body.

After my sister’s demonstration was over. Students spread out and practiced their skills. Some of them were already capable of using the technology.

‘Could Seluna’s claws be used as weapons?’

Miss Seluna and Prince Sirion were the hero’s disciples and sons, so it wasn’t strange that it was possible. On the contrary, even though she was the daughter of a hero, Miss Barney seemed to have no clue.

‘First, let’s learn this skill myself and help Miss Barney.’

I put off trying to have a conversation about dueling until later in class and started practicing my skills.

“Kk! Wow!”

“There is no smell. Did you wash it?”

Since I couldn’t practice curses and pain on a target, I got a goblin.

Assimilates ether into a weapon.

Transforms the weapon into ether itself.

‘My sister’s dagger became poison itself. So, it was absorbed into the body without any damage.’

First of all, you need something that won’t cause you pain. You must be able to inflict severe pain with the weakest object to master this skill.

I pulled out a strand of hair and placed it in ether.

-Bath

The hair could not withstand the ether and became brittle. Was the hair too harsh?

“This phenomenon occurs because it is difficult to recognize hair as a weapon.”

“Who… Instructor.”

“The student was an ether of pain. It’s good to try, but if your initial goal is too big, it will be difficult to master.”

My older sister saw me and gave me advice. It was very awkward because of the way we spoke, but we endured it and continued the conversation.

“Weapons are objects that cause pain. If you inflict pain with a weapon, it becomes natural.”

“Don’t focus on what’s causing you pain. Pain is one big concept. Please keep that in mind.”

Pain is one big concept. Then, we can segment the pain.

The pain of being burned.

The pain of cutting flesh.

The pain of breaking bones.

The pain of having your organs crushed.

Pain that could lead to death.

“Keck!”

After thinking of a method, I filled the dagger with ether and imbued the goblin with it. There were no injuries, but the goblin screamed.

‘ah. ruined.’

The method I came up with is to inflict pain as if being hit by a hammer where a knife has been cut. I used it because I thought it would be easy to subdue it if it caused unfamiliar pain. Since I don’t know the goblin language, I couldn’t tell if I was successful.

‘I can’t help it.’

I grabbed the dagger and stabbed myself in the hand.

-widely

At that moment, my wrist was grabbed by a white hand.

“What are you doing?”

An angry voice was heard from next to me.

‘Miss Seluna’s voice.’

Apparently, Miss Seluna was watching me. Is it because of yesterday’s war?

“Training. I couldn’t judge him as a goblin, so he was trying it on me.”

“Is stabbing your own palm with a dagger considered training? By any chance, do you have any intelligence?”

“It is an efficient method.”

“Crazy bastard. I blocked him because I was crazy.”

As Monica said, Seluna seemed to have a good heart.
