Standard of Reincarnation - Chapter 54
Episode 54
Vinchen said.
“I want to be Adenka.”
“You are already Adenka.”
“But I can’t deal with Adenka’s swordsmanship.”
Vincenzo bit his lip slightly as if indignant.
“I overcame Samion’s 6 Princes at this friendly exchange meeting. However, as Adenka, I did not overcome Samion.”
It is true that Vinchen defeated Kagon.
However, Adenca did not defeat Samion.
None of Adenka’s abilities were used by Vincen.
It was because he hadn’t learned Adenka’s swordsmanship yet.
“I want to surpass Samion’s sword with Adenka’s sword.”
In this family that Aslan left behind.
I want to join the mission he left with the sword he left behind.
It was sincere.
“….”
Khan looked down at Vincen.
Vinchen did not avoid Khan’s gaze.
‘The gaze… contains a small crush.’
Suddenly, Vincen remembered that Khan was his father.
Back when I was a one-armed Daven.
The father’s kind gaze that he longed for but never received.
I felt that gaze now.
“I need a teacher.”
Khan recalled the words of the chief chamberlain, Railsa.
-Aren’t you asking your father for help?
-If he changes his position with the authority of the head of the household, he will be able to become the teacher of Confucius Vincenzo.
Railsa’s judgment seemed correct.
Vinchen wanted a teacher.
However, there were not many who wanted to become Vincen’s teacher among the warriors who were learning Adenca swordsmanship.
Vinchen has already fallen out of favor with the elders, and is unable to receive support from her mother’s family.
He could have become Vinchen’s teacher for no reason and later be pushed out of the family’s power competition.
“This is only possible if there are people who volunteer themselves.”
“There will be.”
Of course, I don’t know who Vinchen will be either.
But one thing was certain.
“I overcame Samion’s swordsmanship without learning Adenka’s swordsmanship.”
This could be said to be even greater than the achievements of the 2nd princess, Deia.
Even in Samion, the opponent was Kagon, who is also called the equipment.
“But if no one volunteers.”
Vinchen looked straight at Khan once more.
“I will be very disappointed in the elders of my family.”
Selvira, who had been quietly watching the situation from behind, swallowed.
‘Aren’t Vi Vincen’s words too strong?’
Even though.
What a disappointment to the elders of the family.
To say such a thing without hesitation in front of the head of the family.
‘It’s not that the head of household is angry…’
It wasn’t.
Khan smiled faintly.
“I will be disappointed too.”
Khan turned his back.
A small smile crept across his lips.
“I really like your answer.”

A few days ago.
Railsa, one of Adenka’s chamberlains, visited the lodgings of an old friend.
“Rails. What happened?”
My friend’s name is Merlin.
He was the chief of the White Sword Corps.
Merlin straightened up and sat upright in his seat.
Railsa sat next to Merlin.
“How’s the post-mortem chief? Is it worth it?”
“I am just doing my duty.”
Merlin made no value judgments.
If you were given a mission and a position, you just had to act accordingly.
“You really didn’t want to.”
Merlin isn’t just someone to be in charge of an autopsy.
Rail, an old friend, knows it well.
“It has nothing to do with my personal preferences.”
“Are you thinking of doing something else?”
“Something else?”
“Because the Yellow Dragon Corps just needed people.”
Hwangryongdae.
It was one of the educational institutions that nurtured and raised Adenca’s warriors.
“This is where the sword is missing.”
Currently, he is in the white ‘sword’ corps.
The place Railsa proposed was the ‘Hwangryongdae’ without the ‘sword’.
He did not want to work in a place without a ‘sword’.
“refuse.”
“I knew you would say that, but.”
Railsa stood up from her seat.
“There is someone I really want you to teach me.”
“Who is that?”
“Ugly Prince Vincen.”
For a moment,
Merlin’s body flinched.
he still remembers
The traces of Vinchen’s sharp cutting of the scarecrow with a black cedar wooden sword.
I still remember the memory of that unusual night.
“Hateful hair has already been firmly established in the Council of Elders. too young too The odds of becoming an heir are extremely low. It is no exaggeration to say that there is no warrior from Adenca who wants to become Vincen’s teacher.”
“So you know very well that I will refuse.”
“By the way, what if he has the blessing of a lightning giant?”
“…”
Merlin thought for a moment.
However, he soon shook his head.
“Even if that happened, it’s something I don’t really like.”
“So I’d like to make a suggestion.”
Railsa chuckled.
“In a few days, Prince Vincen will compete with Prince Kagon. What do you think?”
“Of course, Prince Kagon will win.”
“I bet that Prince Vincen will win.”
Merlin looked at Railsa as if he was dumbfounded.
“The jokes have grown.”
“I am not kidding.”
Railsa looked at Merlin silently.
Merlin made an expression of incomprehension.
“Are you serious?”
“Sincerity.”
“Do you think that would be possible?”
“Can I assume that if Confucius Vincenzo wins, you have the intention of becoming his teacher?”
“I don’t want to waste my time on something that doesn’t have a chance.”
Railsa pulled out the sword from her waist.
It was her favorite sword ‘Mukwol’.
Railsa’s sword touched Merlin’s throat.
“I will stake my sword.”
“…”
Merlin carefully put the sword away.
“If you’re this serious, I’ll accept the offer.”
It’s rare for Railsa to move this far.
“But Prince Vincen cannot beat Prince Kagon.”
I thought so,
but it wasn’t.
A few days passed and miraculous news came.
It was the news that Vinchen had defeated Kagon.
He also won all three gates.
Railsa said.
“Look. You said that Prince Vincen would win, right?”
“…”
“Prepare. I saw it beforehand and put it on.”
Rail has already prepared so that there will be no disruption to personnel transfers.
Railsa took care of everything assuming that Vinchen would win.
Merlin packed a few things.
Railsa held out the moon.
“This is the sword you coveted 20 years ago.”
“I lost the bet.”
“Let’s call it a bribe.”
“bribe?”
“I don’t need the moon anymore.”
She put her hand on her chest.
“As you can see, I am the chamberlain. The chief chamberlain doesn’t need a famous sword. The moon will suit you better.”
Merlin accepted Railsa’s sword.
He could read Railsa’s heart.
“Why are you so supportive of Confucius Vincen? Because Sarvina is his son?”
“That was the beginning.”
Railsa laughed lightly.
Obviously that was the beginning.
“But somehow, Confucius Vincenza has a charm that makes people look forward to it.”
“…”
Railsa and Merlin walked together towards the south gate of Adenka.
He didn’t say goodbye to the members of the White Sword Corps either.
in front of the south gate.
Railsa opened her mouth.
I know this, but I pointed it out one more time.
“You know that Prince Vincen was not chosen by the Council of Elders, right?”
“okay.”
Being the teacher of a candidate for succession has many meanings.
If the disciple does not inherit the succession, words are not very good.
“You must know that there is no help from my mother’s family.”
“Know.”
Politically calculated, this choice was a great loss to Merlin.
Merlin said bluntly.
“Let’s have a drink next time we meet.”
His appearance faded away.

When he received the letter, Vargon’s body trembled.
The conversation I had with Vinchen the other day was still vivid.
– After the victory of that day, my teacher will be decided, so wait and see.
‘Really… the teacher has been decided.’
Vargon read the letter once again.
The name of a soldier was written on this letter, which was proven by the seal of the head of the Adenca family.
It was Merlin, a swordsman who was once called ‘The Great Thunder’.
“Growth. Did Sir Merlin claim to be Confucius Vincenzo’s teacher?”
He sat in the chair and pondered Merlin’s name for a long time.
It reminded me of the battles Merlin was active in.
“Mertica Plateau Mambus Wilderness Battle of Berta Highlands.”
Among them, the highlight was the Battle of Charvidal Great Plain.
The battle in which the warriors of the now extinct Tamilanga surrounded the warriors of the Adenka family.
At the time, Merlin, who was a 7 star soldier, had killed 120 Tamilan soldiers alone and broke through the siege.
That was over 10 years ago.
Since then, he has become one of the ‘Twelve Swords’ representing Adenca.
‘Afterwards, I heard that he was deprived of the position of the Twelve Swords by refusing the order of the Elders’ Council and acting alone…’
After that, his actions were not known to the outside world.
“It’s an honor to meet you in person. I’m Deputy Director Vargon, who is acting as the general manager Lord Herka’s authority. Sir Merlin.”
“Nice to meet you Sir Vargon.”
Herka, who hates work, is leaving the Red Fort under the excuse of subjugating hemp.
Vargon’s beard trembled.
“My heart trembles to meet the person who was my idol.”
“I am not a lumberjack to become someone’s idol.”
“In the Battle of Charvidal Great Plains, I was a dispatched magician on the Adenca side. I will never forget the appearance of Sir Merlin at that time.”
Vargon saw it himself.
The appearance of a yaksha that single-handedly slaughtered hundreds of warriors.
In Vargon’s memory, Merlin was a torpedo giant himself.
Vargon and Merlin sat facing each other.
“I put in a message, so Cadet Vincen will arrive soon.”
Just as Vargon said, a knock sound was heard.
“I heard that you called Lord Vargon.”
“Come in.”
It was Vincent.
Vinchen entered Vargon’s office.
“What are you doing?”
“Vinchen’s cadet’s teacher has been confirmed.”
Vincen did not panic greatly.
I was expecting it anyway.
‘My master.’
It seems that my father moved faster than I thought.
Then someone sitting on the sofa stood up.
He bowed respectfully.
“It’s Merlin.”
“Do you remember my name?”
I remember it.
“Wasn’t he a member of the White Sword Corps?”
Julian screamed out loud.
-A member of the White Sword Corps!
Vinchen frowned slightly without realizing it.
My head buzzed.
‘Didn’t you see it too? We even said hello together.’
– What are you talking about! When did you meet Sir Merlin?
Vinchen felt strange.
Vinchen remembered clearly.
-This is Merlin from the White Swords.
Around the time I started training.
Vincen was the first military man to show kindness to himself.
-Health potion. This will make your training much easier.
and had said
– Merlin I will remember your name.
Come to think of it, it reminded me that Julian, who was quite talkative at the time, didn’t intervene at all in the conversation with Merlin.
‘It’s a strange thing.’
The reason was unknown.
once asked.
“Are you here to give a message?”
“That’s right.”
I thought it was a swordsman who came to deliver a letter stating who was confirmed as the teacher.
Merlin opened his mouth.
“I am very glad you remembered my name.”
“It is natural.”
Wasn’t he the first person to do me a favor?
And since he said he would remember, it was right to remember.
“Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Merlin Feilker. From tomorrow, I have been dispatched as a teacher to Confucius Vincen. From tomorrow, I will treat you not as Confucius, but as a disciple and student, so please forgive the rudeness.”
Vincent’s body flinched.
I felt like I had been hit in the head hard.
‘Failker…?’
Failker.
It was the castle of Aslan, the first head of Adenka.
