Academy’s Genius Swordmaster - Chapter 110

[ 110. Blood wets the sand (1) ]

#110

The inspection was thorough. Doron returned to his place after a while. In his hand was a piece of Vajra’s corner.

“Where the hell did you get these?”

“That’s a secret. How is it useful?”

“It’s useful…The mana it holds is certainly powerful. I won’t deny that the possibilities as a material are endless.”

Doron rubbed his beard roughly. He continued talking without taking his eyes off the sculpture.

“But it is evil. I’ve never felt such a ghastly aura. It looks like you plucked the leaves from a tree that grows in hell.”

“That’s a nice analogy.”

“In conclusion, it can be used to craft weapons. However, it is dangerous. If you’re not planning on making a demonic sword, I think you’d better stop.”

“What’s that, why don’t you write?”

“……okay.”

Doron nodded heavily. It was a completely different reaction from when he brought Sheeta’s eggshell. The voice of concern sounded even sadder.

‘You’re worried about me. No wonder.’

Ronan rubbed his chin slowly. He could understand Doron. Vajra’s danger was on a different level from the egg shell. Even if the ego disappeared, the fact did not change.

From the piece of black paper, sparkling mana was still creeping up. I don’t know if I’m just going to read and study quietly like Asher, but I couldn’t be sure what would happen if I used that to tear my flesh and smear blood.

But Ronan had no intention of giving up. I was thinking about what to seduce this old man. A low moan escaped Doron’s mouth.

“Ahhhh…”

At that moment, Ronan realized that Doron was hiding his feelings. Behind the anxious eyes, the desire and curiosity of an artisan that could never be suppressed burned.

‘Inspired. Not to be honest.’

It seemed that there was no need to twist. Suddenly, Ronan snatched the piece of paper from his hand. widely! Doron’s eyes widened as the paper was taken away out of nowhere.

“Okay Doron. Let’s stop.”

“What are you doing all of a sudden?”

“I’ll just not use this and make it. Because I don’t want to become an idiot after holding the knife wrong once.”

“It is, however. Where are you going to take so much? Come on. It is too dangerous for you to handle.”

“Ha… Doron. How about we be honest?”

Ronan glanced down at Doron. His gaze was still fixed on Vajra. Ronan squatted and said with a grin.

“You want to try it?”

Doron’s expression crumpled. Hesitantly, he grabbed the paper.

“Okay, dude. Is it good because you beat the old man?”

Ronan, who had been giggling, stood up.

“Exactly, Doron. It’s not a blacksmith who thinks about the words of the guy who wields it.”

“You speak well. So, what kind of weapon do you want to make with this monster? knife? window?”

“I will leave the type entirely to the old man. Because you know much better than me. Look at this instead.”

“Hmm?”

Sureureung! Suddenly, Ronan tugged at the hilt. At the same time, the mana power source was switched. At the same time as his heart beat at a different beat, a white halo of light climbed up the blade.

“This…!”

“It’s damn bright. Anything is fine, so I want a weapon that can handle this power well.”

“Nonsense. It’s a completely different power from the existing four mana. I thought the impression I gave off earlier had subtly changed, but that was because of this.”

Doron’s eyes twinkled as he examined the mana Ronan had manifested. Sensing a visceral sense of deja vu, he frowned.

“Hmm…but why does it feel similar to the paper I received earlier? Is it because of this old man’s mood?”

“You have the keen eye of a supreme blacksmith.”

“What the hell… no, no. First, show me what you can do with this power. Didikan!”

“uh. Are you talking about the shield?”

Doron nodded. Didikan, who suddenly entered the corner of the forge, came out with a shield. Ronan tilted his head.

“that?”

“Test Shield.”

It was a huge round shield that covered the entire upper body. There was not a single scratch on the mirror-like surface. Didikan, facing Ronan, raised his shield and said.

“good. Give it a shot now.”

“I’m serious?”

“okay. I just want to see some ability. Even if it looks plain, don’t worry because it’s an item that the old man made with great effort.”

kang! kang! Didican laughed confidently and tapped his shield. Despite knowing Ronan’s skills, seeing him do that seemed like a really well-made shield. Ronan stuttered and grabbed the hilt.

‘I’m going to have to show you what I’m going to do. I hope you succeed.’

It was my second try. Ronan closed his eyes and concentrated. Shuaaaa… I could feel the surrounding air vibrate minutely and at the same time the core changed the shape of mana. The mana that was sparkling white began to transform into gold.

“Oh, that’s strange.”

Didican whistled. A golden afterimage descended along Ronan’s shoulder and wrapped around his right arm. Its violent form resembled the paws of a lion.

‘It’s a success.’

It was truly a success. A force that seemed to rip through the skin and jump out of it was sprouting from deep within the muscles. It was the same feeling as when he split Aarondale into Aaron and Dale. Ronan asked in a worried voice.

“Why don’t you stop right now? Even if you just hit something you put on the floor, you can tell how good it is.”

“I have a bad brain, so I have to feel it with my body. And I can’t become a good blacksmith if I sacrifice myself to make good weapons.”

“Nice.”

Ronan laughed. “Thump! Suddenly, his left foot hit the floor. Suddenly, shiny roots that grew up wrapped around Didican’s leg. ”

Huh? What is this again?”

“I’ll help you out. Hold it straight.”

“Damn, my legs won’t move. What the hell is that?”

The embarrassed Didican struggled, but the root did not fall. The root fixed his lower body to the floor and made his defensive posture even more firm. In the end, Didican gave up and raised his shield again

. .”

Before he could finish his words, La Mancha disappeared from sight. Ronan’s arm became a golden trail and cut through the air. The moment the blade touched the shield. Quaaaaang! Didikan flew backwards and landed on the wall of the smithy. .

“Gagging!!”

“Oh my God Didican!”

“Wow!”

Doron and Adeshan screamed. The two-meter-tall werewolf flew away as if it were a ball. Bang! Didikan, who had been pinned to the wall for a while, collapsed on his knees

. ..!”

Didican raised his head with a chuckle. The roots that were connected to the floor were torn off helplessly. A very thin and deep line remained on the surface of the shield, which was clean without any scratches. Ronan approached and held out his hand. “Are you okay

? ”

“Damn it, I’m fine.”

The aura that was wrapped around Ronan’s arm had disappeared before he knew it, and Didican grabbed Ronan’s hand and stood up

.

The neatly cut bottom of the shield reminded me of a half moon floating in the sky. Didican laughed out loud after experiencing an unprecedented situation

.

“Huh…Damn it. As expected, it consumes too much mana.”

Ronan, who had been breathing deeply, switched power sources again. Rapid fatigue set in from the depleted second core. There was

still only enough time to swing the sword once. He looked down at Doron, who was dumbfounded, and said,

“How about Hu?”

“…Are you using magic? It’s not enough to separate mana, so you can handle two different abilities.”

“I’m sure. Anyway, you can get other abilities besides these, but for now, these two are all. For the old man to see, please make me a suitable weapon. Anyway, the money will be paid in Grancia.”

After saying that, Ronan took out a metal plate. It was a bill from Schlieffen’s father as a reward for saving Gran Cappadocia earlier. He pointed the tip of his chin at Adeshan, who was still in shock, and said, “Hey, you’re going to make something for your senpai.

” You can’t forget it.”

“Yeah…that’s right, honey. Would you like to come here for a second?”

“Ah yes!”

Only then did Adeshan come to his senses and ran in front of Doron. Doron, who was examining her closely, frowned. “You also have a strange

feeling. Just in case, I ask you, do you deal with shadow mana?”

“How could that…!”

“I’ve seen it a few times. The last time I saw it was about 120 years ago… You’re gifted with a rare talent.”

Doron nodded in interest. Seeing the three-hundred-year-old say that, it seemed to be a rare talent indeed. He continued with a more serious expression

. What are your abilities?”

“I’m not… I’m not a combat type.”

Adeshan looked around, her eyes caught on the bats hanging from the ceiling of the forge, and a soft whisper escaped her parted lips: “Come here.

”

“Kee!”

Then the bats lined upside down on the ceiling fluttered and flew in. Bats circling in formation lined up in a line between Doron and Adeshan

. It depends.”

“Oh my God. Is it possible to use it for people?”

“Perhaps…it will.”

“This is such a dangerous power. I’m glad you look kind-hearted.”

Doron gave a short sigh, stroking both of his forearms as if to ease the chills before he opened his mouth, ”

Okay. Your weapon feels right. If you can control your opponent’s movements, that’s it too.”

“Are you done?”

“Yes, I’ll take care of the rest, so it’s good to go back now. It’ll be finished in about 15 days.”

“Thank you, old man. I’ll be looking forward to it.”

“I’m really looking forward to it. What kind of monster will come out this time…”

Doron shuddered, his round eyes twinkling through his wavy hair.

It’ll work. I’ll start working on it right away. Diddykan help!”

“Damn, I’m impatient. I’ll just walk you to the lift and come back.”

“Goodbye Doron. See you again.”

Ronan waved his hand. Adeshan bowed politely. Doron didn’t answer when Didican asked if the old man was deaf, but a loud hammering sound replaced his greeting

. The two of them headed back to the elevator they came in. Didikan suddenly stopped them as they were about to

get on.

“ok?”

“There’s a new invention developed this time. It hasn’t been shown on the market yet, but I want to show it to you.”

Only then did Ronan notice that Didican’s left hand was holding a strange box. There was a short cylinder in the middle, the round side of which was blocked with a transparent crystal. In addition, various miscellaneous parts were attached to each other, so it was hard to guess its purpose. ” Now

look here. Filming?”

“Are you filming?”

Boom! All of a sudden, the box emits a flash of light and the room lights up. The two frown. The light goes down before long. Ronan asked annoyedly, “What the hell did you do?

”

“Wait. I’ll show you something amazing.”

Didican chuckled, Geeeeing…! Suddenly, the box vibrated and a piece of paper the size of a palm came out of a groove at the bottom.

“This…?”

“Wow, isn’t that what we look like?”

Adeshan’s eyes widened. A black and white drawing was drawn on the paper. It was the appearance of Ronan and Adeshan making faces that I don’t know why, but it was so close to reality that I couldn’t believe it was a painting at all. Adeshan said in a trembling voice.

“Am I this ugly?”

“I’m not ugly. What other strange things have you made?”

“It’s a machine that allows you to preserve moments for eternity. I haven’t come up with a name yet, but isn’t it cool?”

“Not too bad.”

Ronan laughed in amazement. He straightened out the elaborate painting and put it in his inside pocket. The two immediately took the elevator and headed to the ground.

“It’s already night.”

“Yeah… I didn’t realize time was passing because it was underground. What weapon would you like me to make?”

“Iknow, right. I am also curious.”

The moment I left the clothing store, the moonlight poured over my head. The sound of people living was heard from all over the city, which was buried at night and made a night.

Ronan and Adeshan went back to Phileon looking at the picture Didican gave them. Adeshan complained that he couldn’t come out, but Ronan did not give the picture to the end.

Time passed quickly. The day of vacation came quickly. It was only about 10 days, so nothing special happened during that time.

“I hope everyone has a meaningful vacation. I hope you don’t forget that you are a member of the proud Phileon Academy even outside the academy…”

Summer vacation began with Kratir’s cliché. For nine weeks, students were able to rest or spend time freely at home without going to school.

The site of Phileon, which was quiet, was crowded with returning students. A student who was waiting in line to ride the carriage shouted as he saw Ronan appearing in front of him.

“Don’t cut the line!”

“It’s still disturbing, but do you want to piss me off? I’m not going home, man.”

“Yes yes?”

“I guess I should say I can’t go. shit.”

Ronan crossed the line and headed for the club building. The moment the door opened, familiar faces caught my eye. Asher Marya Braum and Ophelia Schlieffen. Each of the five members were seated and looking around.

“good. Everyone is gathered.”

Ronan looked around at the members and smiled with satisfaction. thud! He deliberately slammed the door to attract attention.

“fist.”

“Oh come.”

The members turned their heads at the same time. Marya, who met Ronan’s eyes, asked a question as if she had been waiting.

“what’s the matter? Put it all together like this.”

“Nothing. I’m just trying to decide who to go on a trip with me for about a month during vacation. Only one.”

“W Travel? one month?”

“okay. It’s a very long… fun trip.”

The members’ eyes widened. Ronan raised one corner of his mouth. The meaningful laugh gave off a somewhat sinister impression. Asher’s face turned white as he felt deja vu.

“Hee-ik…!”

“What kind of trip is that?”

“Wah ha ha! Did I mention that I should go back to my hometown during vacation? I have six lovely younger siblings!”

The other members also hesitated and retreated. Either way, Ronan didn’t care. As he carefully considered his upcoming schedule, he pointed to one of the members and said,

“Yes, I would like you.”
