I Became The Indolent Young Master Of The Academy - Chapter 78
I couldn’t open my mouth due to Winter’s magical power that seemed to freeze me just by touching it. Blue ice crystals gradually spread around Winter, who was coldly stuck on the ground.
Charon knelt on one knee behind Winter and broke into a cold sweat. I narrowly avoided it just before it reached me.
However, it was not possible to be completely safe. My entire left arm was frozen. He grimaced as if in pain and grabbed his left arm.
“…It’s a disaster. “A young child who can’t do anything other than complain has this kind of power.”
Ruid didn’t listen to Charon’s words. The only focus was on the light scratches on Amelia’s cheeks.
If they had tried to argue with me, I would have let it go. Rather, ‘Yes. I would have joked, saying, ‘I am a pathetic person.’
But my family was hurt. I was angry. He was angry at himself for being indecisive, and he was also angry at Charon for doing things his own way and making him angry.
‘This is not a situation that can be avoided. What you need to show at this time is strength.’
Ruid raised his arms. Winter slowly floated along with it. Winter’s blade was pointed at Charon. By the time a ray of cold sweat flowed from Charon’s forehead.
Ruid lowered his arms.
Okay!
However, Winter got in the way. Not to Charon, but to Shearer’s sword.
“That’s it, Confucius.”
Shearer’s sword was surrounded by intangible magical power. Winter constantly tried to freeze Shearer’s entire body, but was blocked and could not proceed.
“….”
Ruid readjusted Winter’s position to a blind spot out of Shearer’s field of vision.
Did you read that thought? Shearer spoke in an indifferent voice.
“Confucius. calm down.”
At that time, Charon suddenly attacked Ruid and aimed behind him.
Without even looking back, he took out another sword from subspace and threw it at Charon. Winter left Shearer to deal with.
visor!
Charon struck down the flying sword. However, his posture greatly collapsed and he stumbled. The sword broke in two. This was because, unlike Winter, it was not a sacred device. However, the original goal of preventing Charon’s attack was achieved.
That gave me casting time. Ruid muttered runes and stretched out his hand toward Charon. Ruid’s magic flowed excessively and spread from his eyes.
“bye.”
Luid squeezed his hand. The result of this magic was immediately pictured in Ruid’s mind.
Charon will disappear. His existence will not be found in this world as he is broken into particles by the strong gravity that is constricting him in all directions.
‘It’s not enough.’
But—it wasn’t enough.
Ruid couldn’t be satisfied with that. There was no point in dying like this. That’s so convenient. Charon will leave without even knowing what he did wrong. Because I lived my whole life believing that I was right.
‘It’s going to be a joke.’
Luid’s anger was greater than expected. Like a wolf that plays with and then kills its prey, I wanted to break the pride of being the vice-captain of the Empire’s greatest knight order.
So, Ruid lowered his power. I decided to return the magic formula drawn in my head to nothing and shoot only a simple lump of magic power.
“Me, crazy.”
Countless blue round spheres appeared in the air.
“You’re very angry.”
Damon quietly placed the barrier around himself and closed his eyes.
Ruid glanced at Charon and shot a lump of magical power. In a straight line, the blue-colored group hit Charon directly.
Charon brilliantly swung his sword to block or dodge. Anything that wasn’t fatal was just a hit. Luid’s eyes gradually sank. Charon is deliberately throwing the light so that it is easier to block it. Ruid was waiting.
‘Your pattern is simple.’
Block one attack and make one attack. Typical counter method. As expected, the attack will come as soon as an opening appears.
“Hmm.”
At that time, Charon lowered his posture and placed his sword on his waist. It was as expected.
‘I’ll return it as is.’
Ruid has completed the magic to reverse cause and effect. You can reflect any attack that comes your way.
If you try to kill yourself, you will die, and if you try to inflict fatal wounds, you will be mortally wounded.
The level is different from the barrier I first used. If I were to destroy this, I was thinking of using Winter, but I was sure I couldn’t do it.
however.
I felt Shearer’s arm move due to Luid’s energy.
“You too, calm down. “Vice-captain.”
Tsk—!
Charon’s sword was blocked by Shearer. Charon lost his grip as if caught off guard.
‘…What kind of magic did you use?’
There was quite a distance between Caron and Shearer. However, Shearer subdued Charon just by drawing a sword in the air.
‘It’s dangerous too. Shearer.’
Ruid readjusted his power. Dangerous person from Charon to Shearer.
“Damn it.”
Charon cursed and put away his sword.
“Who wants it? I haven’t even started yet. “Take out your sword again.”
Ruid had no intention of stopping.
‘Shearer’s attack is blocked by twisting the cause and effect, and quickly ends with Charon using Winter.’
At the same time, it was time to draw up a countermeasure, anticipating that Judith, another member of the Teutonic Knights, would step forward.
“Louis.”
Amelia hugged Luid.
“That’s enough.”
Ruid planned to deal with the entire Teutonic Knights. The intention was to neutralize everything and provide a clear warning. And I wanted to receive an apology. certainly.
‘…I’m shaking.’
However, he noticed that Amelia’s body, which was hugging him, was trembling slightly. Ruid turned his head.
I wasn’t shaking because I was scared. Because it was during a battle, Ruid could tell that his magical power was extremely sensitive. This reaction was anger. Amelia was angry. Much more than yourself.
But I endured it.
“Noona, I will solve it.”
“….”
Ruid looked at Amelia for a long time. Looking into the eyes of Amelia, who had the same blue eyes as his own, his heart seemed to calm down.
Ruid slightly closed his eyes and sent Winter back to the armory. I opened my eyes and answered as usual.
“huh.”
Ruid’s magic, which seemed about to burst at any moment, subsided in an instant.
Amelia felt relieved as she looked at Luid’s face, which was no different from usual. Ruid patted his head with sad eyes and stood up.
“How should I take this, Lord Charon?”
Amelia said, barely suppressing her anger.
“I heard you were my younger brother’s escort. It was the same with your mouth. But, attacking the escort? “This is not acceptable behavior.”
I took off my gloves. I threw it in front of Charon, who was sitting down. Charon only moved his eyes and looked at the gloves.
“I challenge you to a duel. Fairly speaking in a public place. Of course, after you have fully recovered.”
“…!”
Dueling and sparring. The difference is obvious.
In sparring, inflicting fatal injuries on the opponent is prohibited.
A duel risks everything. Show off all your skills. Of course, you could die.
The number of knights who died in duels each year was enormous.
“That’s foolish. Amelia Windsor.”
Charon looked up at Amelia with a calm expression.
“Did you feel anything from our sparring earlier? You can’t be my opponent. “I don’t know if it’s your immature younger brother.”
“That is none of your concern. “I was insulted, and you pointed your sword at my brother.”
Amelia said with a cold stare.
“I can’t let the person who pointed a sword at my brother live.”
Ruid was embarrassed.
‘I can’t beat my sister.’
Sorry, but that’s what came to mind first. The Teutons are strong. It was the strongest knight order in the empire that swallowed up half the world.
Among them, Charon was named. Ruid hated Charon, but apart from that, he had no choice but to acknowledge his skills.
Because he tore down his own barrier that had never been destroyed in this world.
However, although Amelia was angry, she completely maintained her cool. You can see it when you see it. She is more rational than ever.
“Right. Dueling is accepted. “Don’t drag it on, let’s do it right away.”
“I refuse. If you are not at your best, you will not feel any emotion even if you win the duel. “In the first place, it’s not honorable.”
“Wow… this is completely frozen.”
Charon’s left arm was frozen due to the influence of ‘Winter’. Judith was impressed as she struck Charon’s left arm with her fist.
“It’s honor. If you’re imitating a knight, that sounds good. I don’t hate it. But, I have to say this. “Did you say your name was Luid?”
Ruid was full of hostility. Honestly, I just wanted to use magic to neutralize it. If it weren’t for Amelia holding his hand tightly, he would have actually done that.
“It is common for a senior engineer to provide guidance to a junior engineer. Rushing in blindly without considering the circumstances is, no matter how you look at it… an immature act. With great power comes great responsibility. “You don’t seem worthy of that power.”
Charon spoke calmly, and Ruid also listened calmly. I wasn’t interested in that. The only thing that mattered was that Ruid had scratched Amelia.
However, I wanted to say this.
“Say you are stronger than me. beginner.”
**
After Ruid and his group disappeared, the silence was broken by Judith’s sigh.
“What on earth is that sudden acceleration? Vice leader. “You idiot.”
Judith did not add or subtract anything. He wanted to hit Charon on the head.
Charon had his eyes closed. He leaned his back against the wall and spoke quietly.
“It’s hard.”
“Ah, I should have gone out for a drink like Nolan.”
Judith glared at Charon.
“Get ready to get scolded by His Majesty.”
“Is that going to be the end of it?”
“no? From what I see, it seems like His Majesty likes Prince Louis more than his own son. “Shouldn’t the vice-captain be let go?”
Charon said, stroking his stiff neck.
“That’s good.”
The reason why the Teutonic vice-captain was Charon was not because he was outstanding or skilled.
It was because it was annoying. As the leader, you might not know it, but the vice-leader is a lot of work and has no merit in many ways.
Judith sighed again and said.
“I didn’t know you would lose. Wasn’t that your specialty? “A wizard opponent.”
“It’s meaningless if the opponent doesn’t use magic.”
Teutons each had their own specialty. For a wizard, it was power. Charon’s specialty was ‘Dispel’.
Depending on the level of magic, there are some things that cannot be done, but magic that is in a static state can definitely be erased. In other words, the barrier does not work on him. As a result, a wizard cannot defeat Charon, but…
‘Is it coincidence or instinct? This is the first time I’ve been destroyed in this way.’
Charon smiled helplessly.
“So, what are your intentions? Are you really angry at Confucius’ attitude, or were you just trying to spar with him? “Is there some other great reason?”
“…both. It was true that I was angry, and it was true that I was trying to give guidance.”
My first thought after seeing Amelia’s sparring was that it was pitiful and sad that she couldn’t control her own strength.
Even at first glance, his skills were excellent, so I thought it would be enough to teach him a few times. However, it was Caron’s personality that made the sharp remarks come out. Because of this personality, there have been a lot of misunderstandings since long ago. It was the same this time too.
“Then it’s better if you say it in a nice way.”
“I told you. He said he was angry. And, I am a noble. “I must take responsibility for whatever the consequences of my actions are.”
Judith seemed to genuinely not understand.
“…What is wrong with all nobles? “If I give up my pride, will I die?”
Judith shook her head as if she did not understand.
He crossed his arms as if he was disappointed.
“Ah, it’s been a while since I thought something interesting was going to happen. When you’re protecting Prince Ruid. With things like this, I can’t do it… right? Ugh, really.”
Judith stood up. I was thinking of leaving because it was all messed up. Surprised, I thought about having a drink. Then, Shearer, who had not yet sheathed his sword, appeared in her field of vision.
“What is it, Shearer? “Why are you doing this?”
“….”
Shearer raised his sword with an indifferent expression. Judith thought it was heading towards her and was a little scared.
However, he soon looked at the sword with a puzzled expression. As I followed the sharp blade downwards…
Shearer’s hands were frozen. With sword handle.
“…Confucius, you are strong.”
Judith covered her mouth and held her stomach and burst into laughter.
“Is that what happened just because I blocked it once? Hahaha!”
Judith, who had been laughing for a while, even had tears in her eyes, and asked.
“If we fight again, will I lose to Confucius?”
Shearer nodded with an expressionless face.
“I can’t win.”
Judith was a little surprised when she heard that. That’s right, Shearer was the first or second most powerful player in the empire. Judith had never once imagined Shearer losing. That is impossible.
Moreover, in a 1:1 battle, a knight has a much better advantage than a wizard. The advantage of a Pure Wizard lies in creating an environment that is favorable to him, not in sudden close-range combat.
Despite her own admission, Judith never imagined Shearer would lose.
“…If it’s sparring. “I can’t win.”
“You can’t win in sparring?”
“If it were a fight for my life, I would win.”
Judith blinked in puzzlement.
“What are you talking about? “If you can’t win, you can’t win.”
“Because when I threw the ice sword at Charon, I slowed down at the end. So that Charon can avoid it. Probably, that Confucius. “I’m not used to risking my life.”
Judith frowned.
“Of course you won’t be used to it. “Why would a 12-year-old risk his life?”
“…You were 12?”
“…I did not know?”
Shearer walked towards Charon at a slow pace.
Charon looked at him curiously. Without hesitation, Shearer slammed his fist into Charon’s head.
