‘This is what you heard me say?’
Of course, if you listen to Kalt’s story objectively, it may be absurd and irrational, and it may evoke sympathy.
However, the reactions of Nellis and Aria were so turbulent that Kalt could not help but be embarrassed.
Nellis clenched her fists and trembled.
“Maybelle, the fastest hero… I respected you! But now that I hear you, you’re just a fool and a fool who doesn’t even know Mr. Kalt’s gratitude! I don’t want to lose to someone like that!”
“It’s the same for me. I heard that the other colleagues didn’t stop Kalt at all when he was expelled? What on earth do you think your relationship with your colleagues is… I don’t understand!”
“Uh, well, yeah.”
I was grateful that he was angry for me.
However, Kalt was embarrassed to see such a strong reaction.
‘… Well, I guess I know a little more grace than the Maybelle bitches.’
Of course, that doesn’t mean we can’t leave out teaching assistants.
Because you never know when people will change.
Kalt didn’t want to go through what Maybelle had done to him again.
This is especially true because they are the ones who feel gratitude and sympathy for themselves right now.
‘You have to do it thoroughly.’
This is enough to determine that Kalt will never betray them and knows their location.
Of course, if you want to become a teaching assistant, you must first solve all three problems.
After that, we train each person one by one in turn.
Kalt had a rough plan in advance.
But first.
Let’s say thank you to the two noble people who sympathized with his situation.
“Thank you for saying that. I will do my best to help you become like that.”
“yes!”
“Let’s do our best together!”
“Hey… everyone? Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
Seeing the Nellis party uniting, Runia, unaware of the situation, tilted her head.
“Ah, it’s just that the bond between the parties has become stronger, Runia.”
After talking around Runia for a while.
Nellis’ party went out of town immediately after breakfast.
While moving, Kalt asked Nellis for confirmation.
“Nellis, your muscle pain is gone, right?”
“Yes! Mr. Kalt! Thanks to the potion Mr. Kalt gave me, I am cured now!”
“Yes, be careful not to overdo it from now on. Not only when fighting monsters.”
“Ugh… yes.”
“First of all, do you remember the posture precautions I told you about?”
“yes!”
“Then, try to catch the kobold while remembering its movements. Since Nellis has divine protection, she can withstand most attacks and even use the sword swing method, so let’s do our best.”
“I’ll do my best!”
After giving advice to Nellis, Kalt turned around and spoke to Scarlett and Aria.
“Scarlett and Aria, please remember what I told you.”
“Yes, Kalt.”
“okay.”
15 minutes of searching for kobolds around the village.
Nellis’ party encountered four kobolds.
“Aria, please give me a blessing. I will take two, so Nellis will take one. Scarlett will take care of the remaining one.”
“God! Give them strength!”
As soon as Kalt’s instructions were given, Aria immediately used a blessing that increased strength and speed.
While Scarlett concentrated and used magic, Kalt and Nellis simultaneously closed the distance between themselves and the group of kobolds.
-Krrr!
A group of kobolds discovered the enemies and tried to swing their claws at Kalt and Nellis.
Suddenly!
However, one animal had already lost its life by being quickly decapitated by Kalt’s sword.
When Kalt was about to cut down the one remaining animal.
Nellis confronted the kobold she was in charge of.
‘As Mr. Kalt told me yesterday.’
Nellis moves from bottom to top, remembering the advice Kalt gave her.
I swung my sword diagonally.
Swing the sword with force, maintaining the distance between your legs without turning your waist too much.
‘Ah, this is it.’
I felt it from the moment I finished swinging the sword.
He said he was swinging the sword correctly.
And as if to prove that sense, the feeling when cutting down the kobold was completely different.
If the sword I was swinging normally felt like cutting with more force even if it got blocked, now the initial force was enough.
I inflicted greater wounds on the monster with less force than I normally used.
It was a taste that could not be experienced by simply swinging a sword in the air.
Nellis’ sword made deeper cuts on the kobold’s body, making it easier to defeat the kobold with a single blow.
‘This is the taste that Mr. Kalt always tastes! ‘Amazing!’
I felt it the first time I was taught by Kalt, but the results that came from correcting something that was trivial to put into words but difficult to understand on my own were more than Nellis could have imagined.
Nellis felt that it was not for nothing that adventurers complained, saying, “If I had an excellent teacher, I would become stronger.”
Meanwhile, Kalt, who had killed the second kobold, glanced behind him.
Scarlett, who had already completed the spell, was waiting to shoot.
And Scarlett shouted after confirming that the two people had killed three kobolds.
“Stay back!”
The two people kicked the ground and created space.
Scarlett immediately fired the magic that was on standby.
Fireball.
A rapidly flying ball of flame attacked the kobold.
The blackened kobold fell to the ground.
“Nellis, it was great.”
“really?”
“So. Did you swing it well like I told you? Keep that in mind and swing it from now on.”
“Hehe, yes!”
“Then, the next time kobolds come out, have Nellis take charge of several of them. This time, use your divine protection.”
“Yes! Mr. Kalt!”
After retrieving the magic stone and moving again, Nellis’ party encountered a group of kobolds again.
“There are three. Nellis, this time you will try it alone. If you use divine protection, you can do it.”
“yes!”
‘It’s okay, kobolds are naturally weaker than me. Besides, I have now received teachings from Mr. Kalt. ‘Kobolds are much weaker than me!’
Instilling confidence in herself, Nellis activated divine protection.
Rushing while using Divine Protection.
Suddenly!
And a surprise attack before the kobold notices.
The two remaining kobolds noticed Nellis’ presence.
While the kobolds were noticing, Nellis quickly swung his sword and was able to kill the remaining kobolds.
But Nellis deliberately waited to attack.
‘Mr. Kalt told me to use the divine protection this time.’
The kobolds’ claws swung at Nellis.
The kobolds’ claws can easily cut the skin of an ordinary person and leave a big wound.
However, the kobold’s claws did not work in front of Nellis’ veil spread over her body with the power of divine protection.
“Haaa!”
While casually being attacked by a kobold, Nellis’ sword drew a horizontal line along with her spirit.
Even if it can’t cut both ends like a Kalt, it can end the life of a Kobold.
The kobolds, who had been cut deeply in the abdomen, bled and collapsed at the same time.
“haha.”
Nellis’ breathing quickened, not from exhaustion but from excitement.
Breathing quickly, Nellis looked at her hand holding the sword.
Although I have killed kobolds one after another, I have never killed two kobolds with a single attack.
Excitement and joy as if taking a step towards becoming a master.
And gratitude toward Kalt, who had brought about this growth for her, swirled within Nellis.
“Mr. Kalt! I saw it! I killed two of them at once!”
Nellis ran up to Kalt like a puppy looking for praise.
“Yes, I saw it. You are doing very well. But you deliberately delayed your attack earlier, right?”
“Ah, yes. Mr. Kalt told me to use the divine protection, so I hit him on purpose. Uh… I guess that didn’t work out?”
“No, it’s better if it’s an attack that can be hit. I made a good decision.”
“…!”
Nellis’ heart pounded at Kalt’s praise.
Since she had been a sloth party for a long time, it was rare for anyone to praise her for her skills, so Kalt’s praise soaked Nellis’ heart like rain falling on drought-stricken land.
so that.
‘I want to be praised more! ‘I want to show Mr. Kalt more of my performance!’
Nellis had an overwhelming desire to be praised.
“Mr. Kalt! I’ll do it all by myself this time too! No matter if there are 4 or 5! Kobold attacks don’t work on me!”
Hmm! Nellis snorted, igniting her motivation.
“Nellis.”
“yes!”
“Calm down, we’re at a party after all. And if you keep fighting alone, Nellis, you might get tired, and you might get muscle pain like yesterday, right?”
“ah.”
“I said you shouldn’t overdo it, right?”
Nellis’ shoulders slumped.
“Ugh, ugh. Sorry, Mr. Kalt. I was showing off again.”
“No, it’s good to be motivated. If more than four appear, I will leave more to Nellis. If Nellis starts to get tired, I will take on more. I will keep a close eye on Nellis’ performance.”
“…! yes!”
In any case, it would take three more days for the hypnotic effect on Aria and Scarlet to be fully effective.
Therefore, Kalt first focused more on Nellis’ growth and this time decided to confirm Nellis’ problems with his own words.
Meanwhile, Nellis wanted to show a better side to Kalt, who was looking at her.
‘good! I will show Mr. Kalt more of my growth! Then Mr. Kalt will tell you something even more amazing, right?’
With such expectations in mind, what Nellis met next was.
-Krrr!
“uh?”
It was a kobold warrior.
