After that, Phil went straight back to his dorm room.

I didn’t feel like swinging my sword any more.

As usual, I open the window and stare blankly out the window.

No one went outside.

All you see are tall trees and well-maintained grass and flowers.

‘If I had known this would be the case, I would have just asked it outright.’

I thought I had made up my mind, but when I saw his sad eyes, I couldn’t speak.

Referring to the proof of [Contract with the Great Devil], it was difficult to drive Theo back.

He made a big mistake with him a few days ago. On Monday, as soon as he heard the word ‘Great Devil’ in the room where everyone was gathered, his red eyes were filled with anger.

So if, really…

He offered the condition that he would do anything if he didn’t make a contract with the Great Evil, but that was a wrong decision.

[…] My thoughts will not change. If I forcibly come out like this one more time, I will not be still.]

Rather, he was blunt.

My heart sank when I looked at myself with eyes that looked like a disgusting insect.

‘But I can’t help it.’

Very few people know about the Great Devil’s Contractor Distinguishing Act.

Among the direct blood relatives of the Duke of Shallon, including her, I know only a few.

If he made a wrong choice, the only thing he can do right now is himself.

‘Mark Burn oppa….’

Depressed.

The fourth brother that comes to mind whenever I do this.

Everyone in the family treated her disrespectfully, the son of a concubine.

It was suffocating and cramped. But I didn’t really care.

Marcburn de Chalon.

However, it is thanks to the fourth brother who treated him warmly among the blood-mixed people.

—Piel, shall we practice swordsmanship together today? In my opinion, you are really talented. To be honest, there is no other child as talented as you, even if you look for it in your family, as well as across the continent, right?

—Oh, I lost, I lost. When did you become so skilled? I can’t take it anymore

—Piel, don’t try to keep your distance from the people around you. Man cannot live alone. If it’s hard to forgive, I’d rather laugh at you. You say that you are only at that level.

Because of Mark Burn, he had a happy childhood in his own way.

He was always on his side.

He lifted himself up with a brooding figure that was about to fall down, and always greeted him with a smile.

…until he makes a pact with the Great Evil.

At that time he was 11 years old.

The family suppressed it early when Markburn had just signed a contract with the Great Evil.

And he died.

But the damage was devastating.

Although he suppressed them before they became stronger, the first and second sons, who were called the best weapons on the continent before him, died.

Marcburn was treated as a non-family member.

Demon worship is a felony in most countries. If caught, not only the demon worshipers, but the entire family will be annihilated.

No matter how prestigious the Shallon family was, it was a dangerous matter.

Even the one he made a contract with isn’t just a demon, it’s a great devil.

The family treated his corpse with [Fire of Purification] so that only a handful of ashes were left, in case the investigation team would come.

After the case was settled, the only remaining candidates for successor to the Salon family were the third and Fiel.

The third, who was a dunjae, was wary of Philip, a genius.

A family without Markburn was too cold and worthless.

Feeling tired of everything in the world, Fiel quietly practiced alone and entered the Elinia Academy.

“why······.”

But why Theo?

I don’t know if that bastard looks like Mark Burn’s brother.

His expression and tone are cold, and he’s not friendly at all.

“·················ogue.”

A tear was welling up under Phil’s blushing eyes.

She slowly swung her sleeve—wiping away her tears.

percussion-

Then he quickly closed the window.

maybe someone I’m afraid to see this ugly face of myself.

* * *

I walked around the Braves Faculty with Siena for a while, then headed to the swordsmanship training ground.

Of course, training with real people is better than mock training. Besides, Siena is a talented person, so it will be much more efficient.

“Fufu, then what weapon are you going to use against me?”

“The three swords would be nice.”

Julia, who had a fight two days ago.

She used a sword that benchmarked Siena.

If you try to analyze and compare how the original is again, it will be a great help in improving your skills.

Because there is nothing like mastery over repetition in learning a technique.

“Then I’ll go in first.”

It’s been about 10 minutes since I’ve been so brave.

Sienna smiled brightly.

“Hey, you’ve become really sharp? How did you get so fast? You’ve grown a lot more than the last time I saw you.”

“······· Is it?”

I’ve also upgraded the character by one level, so of course my skills have improved. But Sienna had no jaw.

If she uses the amplified Overlord by surprise, it might be worth rubbing it at least once due to the difference in physical strength… But her pure skill itself is overwhelming.

‘One of the swordsmanship is different from Julia’s.’

Siena’s stats and characteristics are inferior to Julia’s, but the level of skill itself is different.

In a way, it is natural

Sienna is about 150 years old. Even if he held the sword for half of those years, 70-80 years. That’s four or five times the age of other academy students.

“…I’ll go back in.”

This is how you get to know your skills.

If Julia is in normal mode, should Siena feel like playing in hard mode?

But you learn so quickly.

In order to see Siena’s movements better, I strengthened [the observer’s eyes] with the [amplification sphere].

“Fufu, of course. Come as much as you like.”

Again fight Sienna.

I capture all her movements with my two eyes.

Not only the skills, but also the trivial habits.

How far apart are your feet when using a technique?

At what angle do you bend your wrist?

When attacking consecutively, at what timing do you stop breathing.

And to see if there are any parts that can be further developed in her swordsmanship.

Watch all movements carefully.

‘It will absorb everything.’

The [Observer’s Eye] has been strengthened, but it’s not enough just to see.

I keep training and make it mine.

There is something I recently realized.

Don’t go through your head when using a technique.

Before thinking, the body must react.

The game is decided in that brief moment through the head.

So hit it until your body remembers it.

So that the body reacts before the head, so that the appropriate technique can be developed.

That way, you can use it comfortably in practice.

The fight is over.

Sienna looked at me with a smile.

“Huhu, Theo. I didn’t know it at first, but the more I look at it, the more you have the qualities to become a ruler.”

“ruler?”

“Yes, ruler. You fit in rulers. I’ve seen so many different kinds of people, but it’s been a while since I’ve seen someone like you.”

“It could be. It’s probably because I’m old.”

“Shut up.”

Sienna opened her axe’s eyes.

Sparks seem to come out of her eyes.

“…Ah, I see.”

“Anyway, I’ve seen a lot of people. The kings and rulers of each country, of course. But they were all hungry people. They weren’t satisfied with their current state and were always hungry.”

“is it.”

I don’t really feel hungry.

I’m just struggling to survive.

“Those people are sure to become rulers. You can feel that momentum too.”

“I have no intention of becoming a ruler and reigning. It’s cumbersome and doesn’t fit my personality.”

“Fufu, you can’t easily escape from fate, right?”

Sienna clung to my arm.

Then he smiled brightly and looked up at me.

I said, turning my head.

“I don’t believe in fate.”

If the character possessed was something like a priest or priest, I might have believed it.

“Anyway, I will go. There is a place to go.”

“Where are you going?”

“Knight Faculty.”

I have to go apologize to Irene.

As with thanksgiving, the sooner the apology, the better. If not, even Irene can put a knife to me at any moment.

···Reduce risk factors as much as possible.

* * *

Theo and Sienna arrived at the Knights Faculty in a circular wagon.

Coinciding with the time when the lecture was over, the students of the Knights Faculty poured out of the classroom building.

After waiting for about 5 minutes with arms folded, Irene also came out.

“Irene.”

“…Theo.”

Irene approached Theo.

Then he looked at him and Siena, who was next to him.

As usual, I wasn’t angry.

I was just relieved that he is now healthy again.

“…are you okay?”

“Yeah, now I’m fine enough to fight.”

“I’m glad. By the way, what did you come here to say…?”

Saying that, Irene glanced at Siena.

Not being angry is a cancellation.

‘··········.’

That elf was really annoying.

When Irene saw Sienna clinging to Theo like a cicada, she clenched her fists involuntarily.

Theo shook his head slightly.

“To apologize. I’m sorry, Irene. I sincerely apologize for breaking my promise at that time.”

“···I know.”

“And I ask for dinner again. Will you accept it?”

Theo looked at Irene.

As usual, calm eyes.

But Irene felt the burning passion in those eyes.

“Joe, good.”

Irene felt her body tremble.

Now, I wanted to smile as pretty as that elf, but I endured it.

It seemed to be compared to that elf.

It seemed kind of silly.

Theo and the elf in front of me right now… they got along so well.

So instead of smiling, Irene put on a hard expression.

“Yeah.”

Sienna pouted her lips.

“Put me in too.”

Theo removed Sienna from his arm.

“…Sienna.”

Theo closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them.

Then, looking at Siena with calm eyes, he continued.

“Me and Irene. It’s a date just for the two of us.”
