Standard of Reincarnation - Chapter 44

the first gateway in episode 44 of Reincarnation

has changed.

Reporters in many news outlets were focusing on Vinchen rather than Cagon himself.

Cagon walked towards Vincen.

“Vinchen. What happened?”

“I just did my best.”

The cadets stopped cheering.

This is because the ‘conversation’ between Vinchen and Kagon is also a kind of friendly exchange.

Their conversations began to be thoroughly recorded.

“I knew you would take a long time. Thanks to that, I was able to hunt Puractua first and pass through the 1st gateway first.”

“You mean you hunted that Furactua?”

“I got help from my colleagues.”

Two cadets stood behind Vincen.

Seen through Kagon’s eyes, they were cadets who could never be called ‘great comrades’.

“Right.”

Cagon himself came to Selvira’s aid.

I guessed that perhaps Vincen would have been helped in a similar way.

It wasn’t something I couldn’t understand.

Kagon chuckled.

“The first gateway is my defeat.”

Vinchen read the knife-like momentum hidden in Kagon’s smile.

I felt a strong desire to win.

“I think I underestimated you too much. Admit it.”

“…”

“But there will be no other similar incidents next time.”

“I hope you will.”

This time, Vincen reached out his hand first.

Kagon held his hand.

Again, cheers resounded in the great hall.

Maria quickly wrote the newsletter.

[What the 6 Princes of Adenca showed was not simple superiority in force.]

The aspect was very different from the previous ‘Friendly Exchange Meeting’.

Regardless of whether she became the second princess of Adenka or the son of Samion, there was only one main character in the ‘Friendship Exchange Meeting’.

And one of them had shown overwhelming force.

[Victory of Confucius Vincenzo was at a higher level.]

[Victory at that level had strategy, insight, and the growth and companionship of his colleagues.]

In fact, Harmon, who was the most inferior student, was crying profusely.

It was the tears of joy that came from doing something for the first time.

[Who would have known that there would be a moment when an inferior student would rise above Samion’s genius?]

Herka came down from the podium and stood between Vinchen and Kagon.

she felt good

‘It’s originally a three-hour gateway.’

Today it took less than 30 minutes.

It felt good.

She called out the winner of the 1st gateway.

“The winner of the 1st gateway is Cadet Vincen. Cadet Vincen, raise your sword and declare victory.”

Vinchen lifted the red lotus.

He recited a declaration of victory.

“Vinchen Adenca declares that she has won the sacred competition with Cagon Samion.”

Cagon admitted defeat.

“Cagon Samion admits that he has lost the holy contest with Vincen Adenca.”

Applause poured in.

Herka looked at Vincen and Kagon with satisfied eyes and then said.

“The declaration is over. Cadet Vincen, go up to the podium and decorate the end.”

victory was confirmed.

He earned the qualification to climb the podium alone.

Vincen, who climbed onto the podium, opened his mouth.

“This gateway was a gateway to being with colleagues. If Sir Herka, who is in charge of this event, permits it, my friends would like to stand together on the podium. Because of them, I was able to stand here.”

Herka thought for a moment and then nodded.

This, too, was different from the past ‘friendship exchange meetings’.

Shizen and Hamon, who were hesitant, also stepped up to the podium.

Both of their faces were very red.

Maria observed them with interest.

‘Confucius Vincenzo’s attitude is always the same.’

Vinchen could have done that enough to shine alone, but Vinchen did not.

‘I’m not turning my colleagues into the background for the sake of standing out.’

The reason was simple.

‘Everyone is choosing how to shine. Even the opponent Kagon.’

It is several times more difficult than shining alone.

However, it was shining brighter than when it was shining alone.

Vincen looked down and said.

“This is the method the 7 Princes of Adenca chose to overcome Samion.”

I decided to take a different path from the one-armed Daven.

I was alone then.

However, now Yulian was with him, and other colleagues were also with him.

We will solidify the foundation so that we will never collapse helplessly like then.

Do your best every moment.

match! match! match!

Amidst applause, Harmon wiped away his tears.

My heart felt like it was about to explode.

‘I… the 6th Duke of Samion…!’

looking down

Received applause from the podium.

‘I! I did it!’

It felt like an inner limit had been broken.

Tears flowed from Harmon’s eyes.

‘I couldn’t do it alone.’

I wouldn’t have been able to get to this glorious place alone.

Through the blurry clock, Vincen’s figure was visible.

To Harmon now, Vincen looked like a giant.

“Vinchen.”

Hamon summoned Vincen and carefully put the sword down on the floor.

After turning the handle toward Vincen, he knelt down.

“Thank you for showing me a new day.”

An oath of allegiance in front of the cadets and reporters.

It was the greatest expression of respect Harmon could do.

“Wake up, Harmon.”

Vincen held out his hand to Harmon.

“You were good enough as a colleague.”

“…”

Harmon looked up at Vincen’s hand.

“But…”

Harmon’s eyes were bloodshot red.

I was happy to be recognized as a colleague.

In the end, he stood up holding Vinchen’s hand.

Vincent said.

“Straighten your shoulders.”

Harmon shuddered and bit his lip.

I looked at the cadets clapping under the podium.

‘Let’s not forget today.’

he won today

‘Let’s remember today.’

got through today

New emotions he had never felt before filled his heart.

‘you can do it. Anything.’

Standing right next to Shizen, she could feel her friend’s change.

Shizen, who had been weighed down by Marlon just a while ago, was able to understand Hamon’s heart better.

It was clear that the Harmon of yesterday would be different from the Harmon of today.

Just like Shizen himself did.

* * *

Under the podium.

Admitting defeat, Cagon held out his hand to Selvira.

“thanks. Cadet Selvira.”

“yes?”

Selvira looked down at Kagon’s hand.

Although she did her best to help Kagon because of Vinchen’s request, she still didn’t like Kagon very much.

‘He’s handsome, he’s polite, he’s got manners, he’s all good, so why not?’

I didn’t even activate the Perspective feature.

It was a visceral realm.

I wondered if it was because he was Vinchen’s competitor.

Kagon continued.

“Thanks to your help, I was able to avoid being shabby.”

Selvira used hearing aids at the right time to distract Furactua.

Otherwise, it might have been quite funny.

Cagon might have had a hard time dealing with Puractua, which Vinchen easily cut down.

“no. I just did my part.”

“Without you, I would have struggled quite a bit.”

“…”

“My hands are heavy.”

Kagon shrugged.

Selvira reluctantly held Kagon’s hand lightly.

‘I don’t want to catch it.’

The genius of Samion, praised by the world.

Kagon’s appearance now was that of a nobleman himself.

He admitted his defeat neatly and gracefully expressed his gratitude to Selvira, who helped him in the process.

“Cadet Selvira doesn’t seem to like me very much.”

“…not really like that.”

“I didn’t mean to insult the cadet.”

Cagon initially asked Selvira to follow her from a distance and act as an admiring bridesmaid.

In a way, it was an insult to Mu-in, and Kagon apologized for it.

“are you okay. Friendship exchanges have always been done that way. I understand.”

“Thank you for understanding.”

Selvira nodded.

The conversation between the two is over, and the first gateway to the friendship exchange meeting is over.

“Would you please let go of my hand now?”

It took a while for a handshake.

Selvira let go of Kagon’s hand first.

Then he lightly bowed his head and said.

“I’ll look forward to seeing you better next time, Gongja.”

Then I moved quickly towards the 9th grade dormitory.

In fact, Selvira was not interested in Kagon.

‘I should congratulate you soon.’

She decided to hand over the congratulatory gift she had secretly prepared for Vincen.

‘I hope you like it.’

Selvira’s steps quickened.

Kagon’s eyes, looking at her back, were somehow desolate.

* * *

When Vinchen arrived at the 9th grade dormitory, twenty or so cadets were waiting on both sides of the hallway.

match! match! match! match!

Vinchen shrugged.

“You don’t have to congratulate me like this.”

Still, the feeling itself was good.

It seemed that their sincerity was conveyed.

-That sounds a bit absurd.

Yulian was a little excited.

– With my older brother’s power, I thought that this kind of result makes no sense.

Julian grasped Vinchen’s ability more objectively.

And based on that, I tried my best to get the best results.

-It is the best that surpasses the best results that have been derived in theory. This is out of the margin of error!

‘Then I’m glad.’

-There is something beyond theory…

Yulian had no choice but to admit it honestly.

– I don’t think I’ll ever have it for the rest of my life.

It was Yulian who came up with a strategy based on thorough calculations.

And it was up to Yulian to predict the best outcome for him.

However, when I worked with Vinchen, I always got another best result that surpassed that best.

– Even if he was a spirit god, he wouldn’t have been able to do it like we do now. uh? he came again

As usual, Selvira sat next to Vincen.

In her right hand was a small flower pot.

“congratulations. It is a gift.”

A small tree was growing in a pot.

“It’s a slightly improved Golden Tang Palm.”

“A golden dang palm?”

“huh. It will grow in a shape similar to a palm tree. The language of flowers is victory. Gold blooms once a year.”

Of course, the amount was so small that it had little value as a treasure.

“Thank you.”

“As always, you were really cool today.”

Selvira sat next to Vincen.

“I’m proud that you’re a 9th grade cadet like me…”

Selbyra paused.

Her expression seemed somehow resolute.

“I get angry too. I did my best, but in the end, I was just a supporting character who made you shine.”

“…”

“It’s probably because my skills are lacking a lot, right?”

she was upset

He was angry not because he was weaker and incompetent than Vinchen, but because he did not think he would be a suitable colleague for Vincen.

“I will work really hard in the future.”

To go after Vincen.

To be a friend who is not ashamed of being next to them.

“So please watch over me. I will try to be a colleague you are not ashamed of.”

Selvira stood up from her seat.

Then, Vinchen tapped Selvira’s wrist! got it

Selvira reflexively shook off Vincen’s hand.

“I’m sorry, I was surprised without knowing.”

Vincent’s expression hardened.

“Selvira.”

“Sorry. I didn’t mean to shake it off.”

“Give me your hand.”

“huh? why?”

“hurry.”

Selvira tilted her head, but then held out her hand.

Vincen took Selvira’s right wrist and examined her palm carefully.

Selvira felt her palms itch for some reason.

“Why are you doing that?”

Vincen did not answer and continued examining his palm.

‘This…’

is invisible to the eye.

However, traces of mana remain.

A pattern that resembled a sword was engraved on Selvira’s palm.

‘A single sword. And a chain pattern that entangled him.’

Vinchen knew all too well about this hideous pattern.

One of the curses of the Samion family was engraved on Selvira’s hand.
