Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 66
Episode #66. Let’s do it the old fashioned way.
“Guardian? What is it?”
“A start-up created exclusively for the security, security and auditing of Leviathan affiliates.”
“…Even if it’s security and security, where else is there a company that entrusts auditing with it? Does that make sense?”
“It makes no sense. More if you know who the representative is.”
“Who is the representative?”
“That bastard.”
“그 개새끼라면… 아니 잠깐만요! Could it be that crazy dog?”
“Are there other bastards?”
“No, does that make sense? Not another guy, but giving that bastard the right to supervise our group! Isn’t this about being determined and cutting your throat!?”
“That’s the princess’s order.”
“No matter how much the princess ordered…!”
“stop. don’t cross the line In many ways, she is lacking in intelligence, but she is still a princess.”
“No matter how you do it, how can you sell out the clan by falling in love with the enemy of the clan!”
“For now, wait patiently. Even the elders won’t wait forever.”
“Aww! How dare you seduce our naive princess to do something like this… You’re like a perverted old man who has no sense of shame!!!”

“Why do my ears itch so badly?”
“I can make an appointment for an intensive care unit if necessary.”
“…someone said that it seemed like he was talking about me a lot. I didn’t mean to say that I was going to die right away because my ears tickled so much.”
“That is fortunate.”
“Be honest, say you’re sorry. Don’t give me goosebumps with words you don’t even have in your heart.”
Even at Limon’s words, she didn’t even raise an eyebrow.
As if he was really sorry, he stopped trying to dial 119 and just continued talking coldly.
“If you don’t have any other instructions, can I just go?”
“Why are you in such a hurry?”
“It was the princess’s order not to interfere with the swordsmith’s personal time if possible.”
Wei Ling, a cross-dressing woman who spoke as if cut off, added a word in a cold voice.
“Of course, if the swordsman wants to review the security system and security system for each affiliate and write a manual, I will be happy to do the job.”
“…Come on.”
“Yes, excuse me then.”
As if she knew that would be the case, Wei-Ling quickly turned her back and left the room as soon as she heard her answer.
Looking back, Limon clicked his tongue.
“It’s not that flexible.”
[It’s not that he’s inflexible, he just seems to hate the team leader terribly.]
“That’s what it means. No matter how much you hate your boss, not showing off is the basics of your work life, right?”
[If you’re bored, even if the person who shook you by the director’s collar said that, it’s not persuasive.]
“Your words, when you answered clearly no matter what your boss said, are very persuasive.”
It was a while to have an ugly competition with Yuna-gyeong, the blue bird sitting on top of her head, to see who was the more exemplary office worker.
It was Yuna-kyung’s point that ended the fruitless discussion.
[Anyway, the team leader should know that he met his subordinates well. Do you know that a competent secretary like Mr. Wei Ling is so common?]
“Well, I’m a bit suspicious about you, but I’ll admit that he’s competent.”
It has been several days since Li Qingyu took on the role of secretary named Wei Ling along with the representative of the Guardian.
In the meantime, Limon hadn’t done anything.
But a lot happened to the Guardian.
Sending official letters to the Leviathan affiliates run by the Black Dragon clan, organizing basic information for each company, recruiting employees who can be used right away, and so on.
All of that had been done by Wei Ling alone in just a few days.
“The princess deserves moderation.”
[I hear you’re the elite of the Black Dragon clan? Then it goes without saying that he is a world-class talent.]
“What are you doing? A warrior who has reached the level of psionics is good at all things.”
[Contrary to the team leader?]
“…Why are you tripping me over there?”
[Why?]
Yu Na-gyeong did not budge even when she saw Limon, who was fully prepared, holding her fingers as if she would not let go of unfounded slander.
He just snorted and hit Limon with cold-hearted facts.
[It’s because of the progress of the class leader, who is always stepping on the table even after calling a top-notch violinist like Julia as a teacher.]
Limon frowned.
Unlike the Guardian, who was relieved thanks to Wei Ling’s competence, the violin side was completely blocked.
So it was.
a while after that.
That’s why Julia put on a bewildered expression when she saw Limon, who disguised herself as ‘Lee’, a dark-haired young man with the power of the constellation, and took part in class.
“Lee still can’t?”
“I’m sorry.”
“Did you really do the preparation and review properly? You weren’t lazy, were you?”
“It’s hard to say this with my own mouth, but these days, I’m only sleeping for an hour a day, and I’ve been working hard on my studies for the first time in a while.”
“Your eyes are too soft for that kind of thing?”
“It’s because I’m a little too healthy.”
It took a moment to look suspiciously at Limon, who answered so shamelessly.
Julia sighed lightly.
‘I don’t think it’s a lie.’
Sleeping only an hour a day was probably an exaggeration, but she knew that Limon was working hard.
His attitude is a bit cheeky, but at least his attitude toward class was always serious.
The problem was its performance.
“Then why can’t you still read sheet music?”
“Originally, when you get older, new things don’t come into your head.”
“Leaving aside the fact that that’s not something to say at Lee’s age, even an 80-year-old grandfather can easily learn how to read simple sheet music, right?”
Julia made a puzzled expression.
I would have understood if I had been blocked in something specialized or difficult.
But even after receiving intensive training for more than a few days, it was shocking to see that he couldn’t read even a simple piece of sheet music.
“I rather don’t understand that I can play just by looking at this sheet music. How the hell does a brain have to be to make a tadpole like this look like a sound?”
“If you put it like that, then most of the people in the world have weird brains, right?”
“That is what I mean.”
I’d say hyper-consciousness is great at this point.
Julia sighed as Limon proudly said that the only thing that was wrong was this strange tadpole, and that it wasn’t him.
Being a complete stranger to music, I expected that it would be difficult to teach.
But I can’t even read sheet music.
It was the first difficulty she had ever faced in her life.
‘Hmm, this is difficult.’
It was the same with Limon.
Thanks to the cursed violin, the remnants of starlight dwelling in his body have decreased considerably and are still melting a little every time he plays.
Even so, he deliberately takes violin lessons not because he has too much spare time.
It was because the intuition as a sword master that he had accumulated by running through numerous battlefields and crossing the borders of life and death told him that this was the most urgent task.
In fact, with the same performance, the speed at which the remnants of starlight melted became slower.
‘I can’t go on like this.’
However, at best, the training that I am taking is only going in its place, leaving everything to someone else.
More than Julia was frustrated, Limon couldn’t help but suffer from a headache as well.
The problem was that even if I really stayed up all night and tried to put it in my head, I couldn’t understand that it was this sheet music.
‘It should be easy to learn something at this age.’
From the beginning, he was a real fighter.
He was someone who had personally experienced and trained himself in everything.
But now that I’m trying to learn music that I haven’t been interested in for the past hundreds of years, I can’t easily pick it up in my head.
‘Once upon a time, bards and musicians were good at singing and playing without these tadpoles, but why did this happen…’
Like an old-fashioned old man, he was dissatisfied with young people these days and longed for the old days.
Limon suddenly blinked.
“But do I really need to be able to read this?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Can’t we just skip the sheet music and learn from the next course?”
“…Lee, do you think that will work?”
Julia, who had been suffering from a headache, felt her headache multiply by Limon’s erratic words.
“Musical score is the foundation of all music. Learning to play the violin without knowing how to read music is like trying to grow a tree without roots.”
“Anyway, just because you can’t read music doesn’t mean you can’t play, right?”
“You can’t learn properly that way?”
“Do you think it will be the same as it is?”
“…”
“Think about it. There are cases where a guy who hasn’t even learned basic swordsmanship for years learns swordsmanship while cutting people on the battlefield and becomes a sword master.”
Julia narrowed her eyes at Limon’s grotesque metaphor.
If this was a music school and Limon was a regular student, it wouldn’t have been worth it.
However, Limon’s ability to learn is so destructive that if he continues like this, he will end up teaching only sheet music for the entire duration of the class.
It was a proposal that she had no choice but to think about as she aimed for open education from the beginning.
The problem was the current situation.
“It’s okay to skip sheet music. So what the hell are you going to learn? Are you finally going to try playing the violin?”
“It’s a bit difficult right now. If you listen to my performance and run away, it will be over.”
“Then how are you going to teach me?”
Julia’s expression hardened.
I don’t know how damned Limon was playing, but she didn’t know how to teach a student who couldn’t read sheet music and wouldn’t even play.
The bluebird, who was pecking at the snack in the corner of the practice room, shook his head, as if there was no answer.
However, Limon replied calmly as if he had already thought about that.
“It’s the old fashioned way.”
“The old way?”
“Julia, you are a musician before you are a teacher.”
“To put it bluntly, I am more of a violinist (Geigerin) than an itinerant musician, but why?”
“What is the musician to do?”
“…?”
He looked at Limon with a puzzled expression for a while.
Julia was hot right away.
It was only then that I realized why Limon bothered to refer to himself as a musician, and what the old-fashioned way he was talking about was.
Leaving her like that, Limon got up.
Then he brought Julia’s violin case that was on one side and held it out with a sigh.
“If you are a performer, play your best performance like a musician. After that, I’ll take care of it.”
long ago.
Before sheet music was systematized.
Just like the musicians of the past who learned and inherited numerous performances just by watching and listening, if you show them, you will learn on your own.
Watching Limon grin while talking crazy, Julia couldn’t help but put on a dumbfounded expression.
