Academy’s Genius Swordmaster

265. Probation (5)

#265

“Yes. We’re going to go on the offensive.”

“Are you a gunman?”

His voice was serious. At the sudden claim, Ronan and Ajdahaka both expressed their doubts at the same time. Navardoze continued.

“Just listening to you, I was convinced. That Duaru is a being from the sky beyond, just like the monsters we ward off in Dreemur. But unlike other monsters, it doesn’t seem to come looking for itself unless someone calls it.”

“Perhaps.”

Ronan affirmed. I knew it before, but this incident made me convinced. The giants can’t come unless they send a signal from Nebula Clazier.

“That’s why I want to take this opportunity to eradicate it completely. If a lot of giants like that came down, I wouldn’t be able to handle it. As soon as I leave Adren, I will call a meeting in my name.”

“That’s cool.”

Ronan whistled. It was a strategy to kill all the door makers before doing more nonsense.

In fact, it was similar to what Ronan had done so far, but it was meaningful that Navardoze directly participated in the subjugation. If this had gone wrong and Ajdahaka had died or completely corrupted, it would have been impossible.

“I just want to finish it as soon as possible. My absence will be fatal in defending Dreemur.”

“I think so. There is something I really want to show you.”

right! Suddenly, Ronan snapped his fingers. I almost forgot about it and moved on. He turned to Asher and asked.

“Assel. can you write now? The protection of the stars.”

“It’s a bit difficult right now. If I see a star that will give me strength, I will at least try…”

Asher said with a face of disrespect. When the sun rose in the morning, no more stars could be seen in the sky.

“Looks like it’s possible. This fuck. ”

Ronan chuckled. I asked just in case, but it seemed like it could be used without a real magic circle. Like a dirty genius.

It seemed that the celestial body coming into view was the condition for operating the sparkling mana. If so, can it be used only on clear nights? A gust of wind passed through Ronan’s head, who had been touching his chin for a moment.

“Ah, would you like to use my strength at least once?”

“huh?”

After saying that, Ronan switched the core. The pulse rate changed, and the heart began to emit sparkling mana. Asher’s eyes widened.

“This is…!”

“How do you think it will turn out?”

Ronan asked. It was a good idea to reconsider. Asher, who had been looking at him up and down, quickly nodded.

“Yes. I think that’s enough. So…”

Suddenly, Asher put his hand on Ronan’s chest. Suaaaaa…the sparkling mana oozing from Ronan’s heart began to be absorbed by him.

It was like being sucked by a giant mosquito. Seeing the hand gesture without hesitation, Ronan laughed.

“Why don’t you try it on Marja later? As an excuse to extract bad mana.”

“You can’t do something like that! It’s almost over now, so stay still…!”

Asher’s face turned red like a carrot. Finally, after absorbing enough mana, he let go. Ronan could feel that about 20% of the mana flowing through his body was drained.

“Huh!”

At that time, Asher, who had been muttering a spell, waved his hand in the air. Wow! Between Navardoze and the two of them, a flat and tall force field rose like a wall. The translucent membrane was glistening with its own bizarre color.

“oh my god.”

For the first time, astonishment settled on Navardoze’s calm face. The biggest reason to make them menacing enemies that Nebula Klazier used was shimmering in front of his eyes. said Ronan.

“Take an attack. Something light.”

“attack? You mean here?”

“yes. I have something I want to show you.”

Ronan smiled and nodded. Asher’s face hardened as he felt an ominous foreboding. Navardoze, who was dumbfounded, raised his hand.

“I will.”

“Wait a minute…!”

It was before Asher could say anything. A red light formed on Navardoze’s index finger, and it shot out as it was. Quaaaaaa-! The thin beam of light hit the defense shield directly as a ripple of flame that could easily burn dozens of farmhouses.

“Hiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!”

My entire field of vision turned red. Asher let out a shrill scream. The waves of fire that collided with the shield split on either side of him and rushed wildly. Soon after, the fire faded, and the blessing of the star appeared, intact and unscathed.

“It really is that shield. That’s great, wizard.”

“Huhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

Navardoze admired. Asher was weeping, shaking his legs like a newly born antelope. Wiping the tears from his red eyes, he shook his head.

“Huh, thank you…”

“This is important. Take a good look.”

Suddenly, Ronan approached Schlieffen. Sensing his intentions, Schlieffen silently drew his sword. Ronan pulled lightly with his forearm resting on his blade. A few droplets of blood seeping from the cut… seeped into the blade.

“Show me once.”

“I will.”

Navardoze frowned. I couldn’t figure out what he was even harming himself to show.

At that time, Schlieffen, who had approached the protection of the stars, swung his sword. Awesome! A white line was drawn across the curtain. At the same time as he was delivered, the protection of the stars shattered like thin ice.

“Unbelievable!”

Navardoze’s eyes widened. Ronan raised his index and middle fingers to make a V sign.

“It’s the greatest discovery ever.”

“This… this is amazing. I was still thinking about a strategy to destroy that defense…”

Judging from the reaction, he seemed really surprised. Mumbling to herself, she approached slowly. Navardoze, who was looking at the three people alternately with eyes that would die pretty, hugged them at the same time.

“It’s outrageous. Really proud Surely this discovery will save the world.”

“Oops.”

“Hey, Fire Dragon…!”

Asher, whose face was completely buried, moved his arms and legs. Even Schlieffen, who was always cold-hearted in front of the ruthless Yanggam, could not hide his embarrassment.

‘The best.’

Only Ronan closed his eyes and savored her embrace. The red dragon’s body temperature, which is much higher than that of a human, warmed up the cold body of the wind. The fatigue accumulated last night seemed to melt away like snow.

‘Look at me just once, Adeshan. It can’t be helped.’

He expressed his apology to his lover who was longing for him in Phileon. In any case, it was clear that this discovery would change a lot. Suddenly, Ajidahaka, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, interjected.

【Then I will leave soon to prepare-】

【Thank you for your mercy. The fire of the beginning.]

“Yes. If you get covered in the blood of disgusting beings, you won’t even think of nonsense. Do not wish me luck.”

Navardoze smiled and waved his hand. Ajidahaka bowed her head and turned her steps. He was about to leave when he suddenly stopped and asked a question.

【Why did you-】

【You saved me?】

“You seem to have a lot of regrets. Didn’t I say it was because I needed the strength of you and your men?”

【I’m sorry for asking repeated questions. But the you I know is not one who covers evil deeds with charity-]

【I want to know the real reason.】

Ajidhaka said. The agony of life was felt in the two voices. He still had no idea why he hadn’t been reduced to ashes. Navardoze, who only slightly turned his head while embracing the three, opened his mouth.

“It really is nothing. It is because you did not neglect your duty.”

【Duty?】

“Yes. No matter what anyone says, you were the king of Adren. I did not forget that fact and faithfully performed the king’s duty until the end. The duty not to abandon the people.”

【It was… taken for granted.】

“That taken-for-granted attitude also helped save your life. Common sense is a value that is harder to preserve than you might think. How did your curiosity get resolved?”

Upon hearing the question, Ajidhaka fell silent. The sound of the wind was loud because no one was talking. After a moment of silence, he nodded.

【…exactly. Thank you for your reply.]

“Even if you finish your work in Dreemur, you will continue to be the king of Adren. Leave as soon as you are ready. Please fulfill the prophecy I gave you when I was young.”

[Huh…I thought he remembered that.]

Ajidahaka quietly admired. It was inevitably referring to the prophecy he had heard with Alibrihe that he would become either a great king or an evil dragon.

【Your face-】

【I won’t insult you.】

After answering that, Ajidahaka looked back at Ronan and the others this time. The left head met Ronan’s gaze and continued.

【You must remember Jim’s words. Take as much as you want-]

【Saviors of Adren.】

“Don’t worry, we’ll scrape even the cracks.”

Ronan giggled and waved. Ajidhaka turned his back, leaving two smiles behind.

Naransonia and other aides followed suit. The way he walked with a limp looked very pitiful. Asher said in a worried tone.

“Is it okay…?”

“of course. He’s not just a king, he’s the king of dragons.”

Ronan nodded without hesitation. Ajidhaka was a really good ruler. The very fact that he gathered the high-nosed dragons together and played the pivotal role proved his competence.

“He’s a guy who can bend but won’t break.”

The stunned Orsay was not with them. Judging from what Navardoze said, it seemed highly likely that he would be at the forefront of the subjugation force in Nebula Climb.

Ronan thought it was a pretty good arrangement. If the world’s mightiest people were to be compared to weapons, it would surely be a spear sharp enough to fit within five fingers. After a long hug, Navardoze asked while stroking their heads.

“Then I guess I’ll have to do a little cleanup with the kids. Can I not ask for it?”

“yes. I have a boat borrowed from Itargand. Let’s go back on that.”

“Ah, that child helped you. Do it.”

Navardoze laughed. The aspect of the dragon that set the sky on fire with a friendly smile was nowhere to be found.

Ronan’s party, who had parted ways with her, stood still and did not move as if they had promised. The afterglow of the short but long journey and the battle ahead were making them immerse themselves in thoughts day by day.

‘The situation has completely turned upside down.’

The clear sunlight was beautiful. Ronan, who was organizing his thoughts, clenched his fists. It was hard to believe that all of this happened in just one day.

One night in Adren has yielded results comparable to those of the past three years. The original purpose was to obtain the blood of cult leader Abel, but that was enough to push back for a while.

Stopped Nebula Klazier’s plot. The first to kill the archbishop and the winged bald head, one of the best.

The dragon king, who had plotted evil, became a new person. Asher has awakened into a true killing machine, and the Fire Mother has declared that she will spread her wings to completely obliterate Nebula Klagie.

However, no matter what anyone said, the biggest profit was the information that blood could be used to destroy the protection of the stars.

If anyone asked, Ronan could speak confidently. The destroyed city and the deaths of those killed by Duaru were never in vain. Your sacrifice was worth more than anything else.

said Ronan.

“It has been a long night. right.”

“Ugh…”

Asher nodded lightly. Ronan, who had twitched his lips, turned his head. A city in ruins and a destroyed Sky Tower. The bodies of the dead gathered in one place came into view.

At the site where Duaru bombed, a huge pit was dug like a fallen star. The wind from the distant sky smelled of ash and dust. Ronan, who had been watching the scene quietly, opened his mouth.

“You have suffered a lot.”

The day in the dragon city is over. Soon, they brushed off their thoughts and took the goods of Ajdahaka scattered around them. As I had declared beforehand, I did not scrape together even a single piece of gold. It will take a lot of money to restore Adren.

Fortunately, Itargand’s sloop was quietly moored inside the gullet of Adren. After properly preparing and saying goodbye, the party immediately returned to the system.

In the end, because Navardoze, who couldn’t overcome his worries, came to help in the middle, Ronan and his party were able to step on Phileon’s correction in just two days as a result.

****

【Hmm?】

The sky was clear. Ajidhaka and his servants were about to fly towards Dreemur. Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.

“You look very uncomfortable walking.”

【You…!】

Ajidahaka turned her head and her eyes widened. An old man I had seen many times stood with his hands behind his back. He opened his mouth while looking at Ajdahaka and Naransonia alternately.

“Don’t you need a prosthetic leg? You can make wings too.”
