Episode 143 People who welcome me (3)
Wow!
Rakiel clutched the ice cap tightly. Mana was injected. Partztz crouched behind the 1.5 meter diameter cold shield and thought quietly.
‘Oh, how did I end up like this?’
He looked up in despair. Where his eyes are directed. face. 5 meters across from the fine, smooth sand of the training ground. There was an older man there, holding a heavy treasured sword at an angle.
It was the emperor.
“Are you ready?”
…no.
I wanted to answer.
But I couldn’t do that, so I pushed an awkward smile onto my lips. And I thought quietly. How did I really end up like this?
Then I suddenly remembered what happened 30 minutes ago.
♣
…wow!
Suddenly a feeling wrapped around my shoulder.
The large arms embraced me with passion. I almost fell backwards for a moment because of my weak anchovy(?) body. I barely held on with my poor erector spinae muscles. Only then did I realize the situation(?).
‘The emperor?’
…You hugged me warmly?
I couldn’t believe it at first. I thought this guy was crazy. But it was true. The emperor quickly hugged this side with the same momentum he had been running towards, and thanks to this, this side was able to enjoy the feeling of defending a takedown from a UFC fighter who was not even in wrestling.
How would you define it in one word?
I was out of breath!
The hugging force was so powerful!
‘Cluck, crack, crack!’
A touching hug between father and son? An emotional ending between a relationship that used to fight? The awkward silence that follows? There was nothing like that at all. Rather, I thought it would be nice to have one.
It’s just an awkward feeling, but at least you don’t have to feel the sense of crisis that your arms, legs and ribs will be neatly folded into the set menu.
‘Now wait a minute! stop! time!’
I cried out in my heart and struggled hard. Only then did the emperor seem to realize his pale complexion. The emperor’s eyes were shocked for a moment. Soon, the passionate, murderous body choke, or rather, hug, was released.
“…Gah! Cool look! “Cough!”
“So, did you arrive safely?”
Yes, I arrived safely. And just now, I barely escaped the risk of a complete rib fracture.
…But it was impossible to respond like that. I barely managed to catch my breath and expressed my respect.
“I come to see Your Majesty the Emperor, the rightful ruler of the Huhu Empire.”
“I see.”
“….”
Is this the end of the greeting?
Rachiel glanced up at the emperor, feeling awkward. I made eye contact with the emperor. I quickly dodged it.
“….”
“….”
I canceled my earlier thought that awkward silence would be better. After actually experiencing it, I think the mental fatigue caused by this kind of silence is much greater. It’s not a joke. At times like this, I don’t know what to say. So I just stood there with my head down politely.
It was then.
Thankfully(?), the emperor’s thirst has begun.
“Could it be that you were hurt because of Jim’s actions of expressing happiness just now? “Just that much?”
“….”
“Tsk tsk tsk.” Being weak. “How can you carry the weight of the throne if you can’t withstand that much and easily turn pale?”
“….”
“It is truly pathetic and also pathetic. On the other hand, I can’t help but feel any doubt.”
“If you have any doubts…?”
“Do I really need to tell you every single detail about that?”
“….”
I asked back for no reason and only got a beating. I was able to realize it at the same time. It’s a shame to have doubts. In fact, I felt like it was just something that came out as it came out.
On the other hand, I also felt something else.
It was the emperor’s true intention.
‘You are happy.’
This one came back safely. Because it looks healthy. Being able to face each other like this.
I felt really relieved and fortunate. I could also feel a sense of joy, joy, and contentment. It’s been like that since I first hugged you. It was even more so because it was not my first time experiencing it.
‘…father.’
Suddenly, I thought of you, my Korean father. Was it when I was in my third year of middle school? I once broke my leg while playing soccer during lunch time at school. I had to wear a cast for a while. It was difficult to take the bus. So, there was a time when my father helped me get to and from school by car.
At that time, my father looked like that all the time. He complained every day. He talks about the ugly guy who hurt his leg while playing ball, and criticizes Latte by saying that even though he hurt his leg, he didn’t even dream of getting seriously injured.
However, his heart shown through his actions was different. He didn’t even let me carry my bag. He was even willing to carry me to class. I was always worried that my sore leg would hurt even more and that it would never get better.
Even now, I can’t forget it. I must have heard something somewhere, but by the time the cast came off, the refrigerator at home was full of milk and anchovies that my father had bought himself. There were at least 5 types of anchovy side dishes on the table.
‘At that time, I ate all the anchovies I would ever eat.’
Just thinking about it made me smile. But did I misunderstand this person’s smile? The emperor’s eyebrows twitched.
“What was that laugh?”
“…yes?
“Are you laughing now as you listen to Jim’s admonition?”
“Yes?”
“No, that won’t work. I think you need a harsher admonition. “We were about to discuss what you did in Amboise, so come to the training hall prepared for a sparring match.”
“…Yeh?”
To the training ground? Sparring? Me? why?
A million questions popped into my head. But the emperor turned around and walked away without listening to the answer.
…Thanks to you, it’s like this now.
Facing the emperor in the training hall, he was crouching in turtle mode behind the ice shield of the ice cap.
‘Uh oh, why am I twitching my facial muscles?’
It was not that I felt warm towards the emperor’s true intentions. I didn’t relax for a moment and reminisce about old memories. Facial muscle control must not be disturbed. But regret is always too late. Rachiel strengthened her resolve and strengthened her grip on the ice cap.
This was because the emperor could be seen taking a stance.
“I will go.”
“….”
gulp.
It would be great if you went that way instead of this way. I swallowed my dry saliva and thought. At that moment, the emperor kicked the ground. His appearance expanded explosively. No, there was a rush!
Wedge!
“…sigh!”
I reflexively raised the ice cap. They were already watching the emperor’s movements using the acupuncture point scanning option. It wasn’t difficult to read the direction of attack. A strong shock hit the ice cap.
Tsk tsk-!
“Shoot!”
An intense shock that felt like it was weighing down my entire body, including my forearms, shoulders, and waist! But it was worth holding on to. There was no need to activate the unsinkable option that prevented stun.
‘It’s not as strong as I thought, right?’
Is it because of the experience of withstanding the onslaught of sword master Javilon with my whole body? Or is it because he was elevated to the same double-circle level as the emperor? Or maybe it’s because of both. The emperor’s attack was not as burdensome as I thought.
The following onslaught was also like that.
Tsk tsk! bang! Tsk tsk! Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
Top middle side bottom top head shoulders knees feet knees feet. The attack just came down one-sided like a shower. Each time, he reacted exquisitely and blocked it.
But the emperor’s attacks did not stop there. In fact, there was another attack that was much more powerful than the barrage of swords.
“Huh! “What are you doing?”
Quang!
“Are you saying that you easily reneged on the promise you made to Jim just before leaving for Amboise?”
Boom!
“Didn’t you say with your own mouth that you would gain experience by observing and learning about other countries’ war processes from the safe rear?”
Tsk tsk!
“But why did you act so rashly and put yourself in danger?”
Quazkeung!
“Aren’t you going to answer?”
Boom!
“…Geek!”
A groan naturally flowed out. Of course I wanted to answer. Even if I talked back, I wanted to say a hundred words. But I couldn’t bring myself to open my mouth. The emperor’s onslaught was pouring down like a shower, so much so that even reacting was out of breath.
“hook! Huuuuk…!”
As expected, poor physical strength was the problem. Meanwhile, the emperor’s mental attacks(?) poured in along with the physical attacks.
“And you are truly foolish and foolish.”
“…that town!”
Kwaang-!
“Let me ask you one question. Are you not aware of and have no sense of responsibility for your position? Is it really like that?”
“Ugh!”
Thump-!
“Did you really not think of the huge loss that would result from the vacuum and confusion the royal family would experience if something went wrong with you?”
“Ugh! “That’s not it!”
Tsk-!
“Or what were you thinking when you committed the audacity of competing with the Sword Master?”
“That… I didn’t want it either, but it happened!”
“….”
Toukwaang-!
“…Geng!”
It’s real this time. It was a blow filled with proper emotion. I realized it the moment I blocked it. The emperor’s expression also changed to a grim tone. Am I angry? The eyes glaring in this direction were no joke.
“Are you treating this father’s expectations and the future that the royal family has placed on your shoulders as a joke? “Really?”
“….”
Rachiel was speechless. A more solid defensive posture was adopted.
The emperor’s eyes grew colder. It moved with a more aggressive momentum. But in fact, the emperor was feeling both joy and astonishment.
‘This kid has already reached the level of double circle?’
It was earlier when Chimi was so happy that she accidentally hugged him. At that time, I could vaguely feel it through my vague thoughts.
The eldest son’s mood had changed. It was at a level that was incomparable to before. I intentionally hugged him tightly and watched his reaction. From then on, I thought it couldn’t be possible. I also wanted to make a more definitive confirmation.
So he was called to the training hall. He pushed hard. Thanks to you, I was able to realize it. My eldest son, who had always been weak, was already at the point of double circle.
‘Is this… possible speed?’
It was a phenomenal speed of development. No, it was a shockingly unrealistic growth rate.
‘The first time he awakened the Mana Circle was early this year. It hasn’t even been a year yet….’
It’s already a double circle. The more I thought about it, the more distant it felt. This was especially true considering that it took 25 years for him to rise from the single circle to the double circle.
But it was true.
The more I repeatedly struck my eldest son’s cold shield, the clearer the reality became. It was surprising and shocking. I was so happy and proud.
Of course, the more it happened, the more chilling the words the emperor said became.
“It is truly pathetic and pathetic. It is a very unfortunate attitude to see him as the crown prince who will be responsible for the future of the royal family. Please answer. “What are you planning to accomplish with such a trivial sense of responsibility and mission?”
“…Ugh me!”
Kwaang-!
Another blow. Rachiel’s legs were slightly shaking. The moment he saw that, the emperor’s grip on the sword loosened slightly. I waited very briefly for my son to adjust his posture so as not to be noticeable.
Rachiel did not miss that gap(?).
‘…Let’s stop that offensive first.’
It was unfair to continue to be a punching bag. It was impossible to remain focused on one-sided defense in turtle mode forever. But then the emperor appeared to hesitate. It was an opportunity.
‘Shield hit!’
He quickly moved half a step towards the emperor’s embrace. I had a firm footing. The force was transmitted through the legs and waist to the upper body holding the ice cap. It also carries the power amplified in the mana circle. The plan was to hit the emperor with his shield and throw him away.
‘now!’
Whoa!
The ice cap’s wide cold shield rushed towards the emperor like a wall of steel. There was a premonition of a successful counterattack in Rachiel’s eyes.
‘done!’
The Emperor is unable to react. It was a surprise counterattack success. That was the moment I thought about it. The emperor cast his eyes this way. He gave me a gentle smile. He took a step back very calmly, as if he had expected this reaction.
“Huh?”
Huh…?
The shield that was pushed only hit the air. Thanks to this, Rakiel’s posture faltered. I almost fell forward. If the emperor had not reached out and held him, he would have been curled up in a rather unsightly posture.
Turtup!
“….”
The emperor’s hand held this side. In an instant, my face turned red. I can’t believe I ended up like this because I tried to fight back but failed. It was a bit humiliating. However, there was no time to enjoy such humiliation(?).
Before I knew it, the emperor took out a thick, unidentifiable wad of paper from his bosom and thrust it in front of me.
“Take it.”
“…What is this?”
I corrected my posture and quickly took the bundle. The emperor smiled a strangely happy smile. And…as soon as I put it into my ear, he said something that made me look for a cotton swab to see if there was something wrong with my ear.
It was a bombshell.
“This is a courtship letter for you sent by the royal families of each country and prominent noble families.”
