The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 495
Chapter 495
: I’m afraid of the final battle.
I’m also afraid of the situation of having to fight with Ellen, which I don’t know if one day.
I don’t think Ellen or Dragon can compete with her in her current state. At this rate, I would have to sacrifice my life using Alsbringer, so I came to Lizaira because I wanted the next step.
Whatever achievements I make here, I will fight the final battle.
So, what I have is not courage, but more like recklessness or coming.
Because I have Alsbringer, all my actions have no choice but to be reckless.
I can’t have true courage because I’m determined to use Alsbringer if everything goes wrong.
“It is not about abandoning fear and fear, but facing it nonetheless while holding on to it. That is courage.”
At Luna’s words, I nodded slowly.
It is not about letting go of fear and forgetting about it, but about embracing it and facing it despite feeling the fear and fear that will suffocate your opponent.
That was the condition for being chosen by Alixion.
Alixion is also a sacred object similar to Alsbringer.
Just as Alsbringer chooses a master who can die for the world, Alixion appears according to the wishes of those who have shown true courage.
If I understand what true courage is and show that kind of courage in front of the dragon of the other world, will Alixion appear in front of me according to my desire?
But then what changes?
“Alyxion’s true power is… … . what is it?”
“The Holy Spear Alixion is a sacred object that feels true fear from an irresistible enemy and visits those who oppose it. Then what should I give him? What do you need?”
It is a gift from God that comes down to those who show true courage.
Has the condition already been set in itself?
True courage drawn from true fear.
What it can and should give.
“The power to stand against whatever the opponent is.”
Luna’s words were plain.
“That’s it.”
The only thing needed for those who want to overcome fear and fear in a reckless fight is strength.
Alixion lends you the strength to stand against whatever your opponent is.
No matter how strong the dragon of the other world is, if it is chosen by the Holy Spear Alixion, you will gain the strength to stand against it.
In some ways, isn’t Alixion the strongest holy object?
* * *
If Alixion is given to me, this kind of high schooling might be meaningless.
But it’s funny.
Now that I’ve learned about Alixion, the chances of me getting Alixion are no different.
As if my heart leaning on Alsbringer in the last fight was closer to courage and courage than bravery.
Standing in front of the enemy in the hope that Alixion will visit me in the final fight is also bound to be a considerable distance from true courage.
Rather, because I knew that Alixion is a sacred object that responds to and chooses true courage, even if I exercise true courage, it cannot be pure.
I know it’s a disease.
It was just that pair.
It would have been better if I didn’t know, but Luna and Ronan didn’t tell me that I didn’t want to know, but I asked myself.
I do not know.
You shouldn’t expect Alixion to be mine.
It is also ridiculous to deliberately fear and feel fear of the enemy while struggling with what true courage is.
If Alixion chooses me, there will be no such situation, but if not, I have to stand in front of him.
Since Alixion is a powerful holy object, it hasn’t appeared much so far.
Expecting itself is a luxury.
There’s no way Alixion would appear in a good situation in a good situation just because some strong necessity worked on me.
So I do what I have to do.
The snow didn’t stop.
Before going out into the woods, I and the villagers cleared the snow from the village and roofs that had accumulated overnight.
Not only Ellen’s house, but also the roofs of other villagers’ houses. Among the people living in Lizaira, there were places that needed the help of a young man.
-It’s Reinhardt! Come down and have a cup of ginger tea!
“Yes Grandma!”
Because of the long life as a guest, there were often those who were treated as members of the village without realizing it.
It was pretty funny.
Now that it has been revealed that I am the Demon King, no one will treat me like before.
However, if it was Reinhardt, the bully of Temple, what would he think if he saw me in the countryside who was getting a lot of likes from his grandparents?
No, it would be even more ridiculous for the demon king to do such a thing.
Would anyone know that I’m not that dangerous if someone broadcasts me like this live on all continents?
The devil who cuts down the trees, the devil who pulls out the roots, the devil who plows the fields, the devil who removes snow.
As Lizaira’s life grew longer, she began to think of all sorts of things.
After the snow removal work was over, I took a shovel and a pickaxe and headed for the forest over the snowy mountains.
It was funny how I dared to plow the fields on a day when the snow was so thick that I couldn’t even walk properly, but to be honest, I liked it.
The harder the task, the more concentration is required.
So in the end, the harsh situation was good for me, there was no reason for it to be bad. It’s my goal to go to the field, but it’s not my goal.
“… … Fuck.”
Of course, that’s what it says. It was true that it was infuriating to see the snow-covered road leading to the far-off clearing in the outskirts of Lizaira, where one’s feet were sinking and the road had disappeared.
To be honest, if I used the Fireworks of Hwayo, I could melt all the snow in the village as well as the road in front of me.
I was going to just close my eyes and write it out, but in the end I don’t write it and I start to go through my eyes.
What I can do, of course, Luna can do too.
I still don’t know what Ilwoldang wants and does, but Lizaira basically doesn’t use mystical powers in real life.
Should I be naturalistic?
I respect Lizaira and Luna’s way of life, so I’m not going to use the power that shouldn’t be here.
A lot of things would have been easier if I had used the Fire of Fire.
The land that is starting to freeze in the first place could have been thawed and reclaimed, so the reclamation work would have already been completed.
I didn’t.
By not doing that, I was able to create a state of mind where I could maintain magical power enhancement with extreme efficiency, not only all day long, but also while sleeping.
It’s not like I can’t use the firework of Tuesday to be comfortable now.
Now I know that discomfort has its own value.
“Uh.”
still.
It was true that it was inconvenient… … .
* * *
If left unattended, the accumulated snow melts little by little and becomes ice.
Scooping out snow and breaking the frozen snow at the bottom with a pickaxe, Reinhardt proceeded with the long, tedious clearing.
The snow in the mountains in winter does not melt at all. Usually such snow melts slowly until the next season arrives, and then suddenly disappears on a warm day.
That’s why it didn’t come back after a few days of heavy snow, but Lizaira could see snow everywhere throughout the winter.
In those days, even after the villagers cleared the snow and the children stopped having snowball fights, Reinhardt still went out along the mountain road and returned at sunset.
Another day, two days, a week and a month passed like that.
The pace of work was still slow.
No matter how strong the body was, there was a limit to the strength of the equipment, so there was no choice but to adjust the power, and no matter how much adjustment was made, the blade of the shovel bent or the blade of the axe broke.
Reinhardt slammed the blade of a shovel and a pickaxe on the ground and cut out stones in a state of selflessness.
Some days you do those things mechanically for days and days as if you forgot what you were doing.
The beginning of a certain spring that is now sublimating beyond the winter that has passed and the snow accumulated in the forest and mountains has frozen.
One day when you just have to wait for the snow to melt with the signal that the day is getting warmer.
Luna was watching Reinhardt.
He was watching right from behind, but Reinhardt didn’t even know Luna was there.
-Hook!
A shovel that sticks too easily into frozen ground.
-puck!
Rather than collide with the ground, Luna quietly watches the blade of the pickaxe pierce the ground like tofu.
“Congratulations, Reinhardt.”
“… … ?”
Hearing the sudden voice from behind, Reinhardt looked back blankly.
“Congratulations?”
“okay.”
Luna points to the shovel Reinhardt is holding.
“Haven’t you entered the next stage?”
The shovel Reinhardt was holding was illuminated by the light of blue mana.
“What is this?”
“… … .”
He was so focused that Reinhardt didn’t even know that he had crossed the wall at some point.
Luna smiles at Reinhardt, who blankly stares at the shovel she is holding with a bewildered expression.
“Stop plowing the ground. It’s meaningless to you now.”
“… … .”
At Luna’s words, Reinhardt blankly looked around.
The vast forest was almost completely cleared. Reinhardt, who had been idly looking around at this great but simple achievement he had made for a long time, blankly turned his gaze to Luna.
“There’s not much left, can’t we just do everything?”
“… … .”
Reinhardt licks his lips, as if he’s regretting that he didn’t finish the work he was entrusted with, rather than being happy that it was a master class.
“If you really want to… … .”
Perhaps it was because he had been doing bizarre things for a long time, but Reinhardt had strange mistakes.
“Then I’ll be in the way, so hurry up.”
“… … .”
-puck! puck!
After saying that, Reinhardt started to thump the ground.
* * *
As soon as I got to the master class, the pace of work was bound to gain tremendous momentum.
It was like holding the strongest shovel and pickaxe, so I was able to use my full strength.
In the end, I was able to finish the rest of the work I had been working on all winter in one day. By breaking and cutting the frozen ground.
So when I asked what to do to focus my mind, Luna’s instructions to plow the field were completely finished.
Inspiration for being a master class.
Actually I don’t know.
I’m not even sure when this became possible.
If there was such a thing as a wall, wouldn’t it have been possible to jump over it a long time ago?
I was staring blankly at the fork I was holding, with blue magic power wrapped around it.
I can’t really feel what’s changed, but I’ve definitely been able to inject magic into the object I’m holding.
To put it bluntly, I used the sword the most, but it became a master class while shoveling and picking.
No, but, if this is to be considered in a martial arts way, isn’t it possible to attach words such as a banishment noble?
“Congratulations, Reinhardt.”
“Ah yes… … . Thanks… … .”
At Ronan’s words, I blankly nodded.
“Thanks to you, we have not taught you anything. You just figured it out on your own.”
Luna said that and quietly ate the bread, and Ronan nodded as well.
You don’t have to be thankful for this.
Luna obviously taught me something directly, but not particularly.
Although they fed, put them to sleep, and occasionally made rude noises, it wasn’t strictly speaking that they taught them directly.
To put it bluntly, Arta taught me a lot.
That said, if I really didn’t learn anything from them, I couldn’t say that.
Ronan only spoke about the fire in the heart.
Luna only said a few words about my feelings.
It was just a story about a certain mindset rather than teaching.
Did you forget the agony?
It wasn’t like that.
Have I reached a conclusion about my complex emotions?
Not even that.
Luna and Ronan say they didn’t teach me anything.
But I couldn’t say I really didn’t learn anything.
The time I spent with these two was the days I spent in Lizaira.
I couldn’t believe that they were just feeding and sheltering me while I was doing my personal practice.
Luna says no matter what complex thoughts I have while eating bread.
“I will gather the villagers.”
“… … .”
“Leave tonight.”
It’s night anyway, so I wonder if it’s okay to stay for a day or so.
I couldn’t.
To say such a thing is to admit the fear of returning to the world.
Because I can’t put off the moment when I face the things that have changed while I’m gone.
You shouldn’t try to settle here for even one more day when it’s not enough to go back as soon as possible.
So, since Luna has achieved her goal before I become weak, she wants to let me go quickly. The reason why she wants to let me go quickly is not for her sake, but for me.
Obviously that’s what you think.
however.
those bold words.
I was sad.
many.
Quite a lot.
I was sad.
