The Golden Sun of the Academy

Episode 58

Yeriel(1)

Kanghyuk tightens the grip of the Ego Sword. The response came right away. Of course, in a form Kanghyuk didn’t want.

[Catch it gently! Why are you giving strength to such a useless place.]

The ego sword, which was flashing white, trembled and fired at Kanghyuk with a high-pitched voice.

man? female? Judging from her high-pitched voice and way of speaking, I thought she was a woman.

After Kanghyuk relaxed his hand, the Ego Sword stopped vibrating as if satisfied only then and increased the brightness of the light it emitted.

“You son of a bitch.”

The spearman looked around and found the team members who were already being subdued. The guy spat violently on the floor when he realized that things were going strangely.

“I don’t know anything else, but I’ll take you as much as I can.”

Red saliva mixed with blood stretches across the stone floor of the arena.

A white sword, a white hilt. I felt that the shining pure white sword was like looking at snow in winter.

The white and beautiful first snow reflecting the moonlight.

[Child, accept my strength because it is your strength. And swing it at will.]

Kanghyuk nodded quietly, focusing on the sensations at his fingertips. The Ego Sword ravenously coveted his magic power, as if it would absorb every bit of it.

‘Am I wrong?’

The moment when Kang Hyuk felt sorry for him.

Regurgitate from the fingertips. The disparate magic power felt at the fingertips rode through the hands, followed the arms up to the shoulders.

It begins to spread throughout the body.

It was warm.

Disparate sensations are only fleeting. Soon, it gave Kang Hyuk a pleasant comfort like hot water.

Kanghyuk felt the fatigue in his body disappear in an instant. That wasn’t the end. Beyond the disappearance of fatigue, it seemed that my mind was soaring and my brain was in an awakening state.

The heavy weight of the Ego Sword, which had been felt in his hand, disappeared as if his physical abilities had risen dramatically. Mana management is more natural than usual.

‘I can do anything now.’

It was the first time I felt this way. Because he always lived with helplessness without talent. I don’t know how long I’ve had this confidence.

The spearman, who had been standing back, rushes in. Stone dust splattered from the spot where he hit hard, as if he had run with all his mana. The tip of his spear is full of mana and emits a red light.

Kang Hyuk rotated the sword in his hand once and corrected his posture. In his vision, which slowed down for an instant, a mirage-like figure was naturally visible.

In-young pulls her right arm holding the sword back. Bend your right knee and assume a posture to support your strength with your heel.

Instinctively, I realized that it was an illusion caused by the Ego Sword. I felt as if I could follow. In response, Kang Hyuk… … .

I pulled my right arm holding the sword back and lowered my posture by bending my knees. The white sword in his hand began to emit an intense light full of magical energy.

Eyes met with the spearman as he slammed the spear down in the air.

Kang Hyuk clearly felt the difference from before receiving the power of the white sword.

‘Poof-!’ Along with the sound of cutting through the air, the stabbing spear was very clearly visible.

It wasn’t that the spearman was slow. The mana received from the Ego Sword acted on his body, raising Kang-hyeok’s physical abilities to the limit and only seemed to slow him down.

Kang Hyuk swung his sword and struck the spearman’s spear, which was shimmering with red magic. The blow was so strong that the tip of the spear hit by the sword surface was smashed to the floor, and the sword body was ringing with a ‘wii-ing’.

‘Fuck!’ The tip of the spear, strengthened by magical power, pierces the stones on the floor of the arena lightly as if splitting tofu. The spearman’s face contorted.

The spearman did not give up and immediately pulled out his spear using the recoil of his body and struck it at Kanghyeok.

Kang Hyuk naturally raised his sword and blocked the guy’s spear. The sound of something breaking echoed through the air as the magical energy surrounding the spear and the magical power of the blade collided.

[yes! you’re good!]

As Ego Sword said. The spearman’s overwhelming speed no longer posed as a threat to Kanghyuk.

A spear full of magical energy embroidered the air.

It was a series of attacks that turned Kang Hyuk into rags. It was the same attack, but the result was different this time.

It was a spear that stabbed like a comb, but it didn’t work on Kanghyuk.

I turned my shoulder to avoid the third hit that grazed my forearm.

The 5th strike that tore the cheeks was blocked with a straight sword.

The 7th strike, which had split the thigh, slowly twisted around the waist and flowed away.

“Oh, dog-!”

The spearman’s expression distorted, perhaps because his skill, which could be called his own skill, was blocked. I try to raise my fighting spirit by swearing wildly, but… … .

[I knew you could do it. look. Because I can!]

Kang Hyuk’s hope was the spearman’s despair.

There was already a hint of resignation that he couldn’t win.

At the end of the gradually accelerating spear attack.

Chow-!

Kang Hyuk only turned his head to avoid the tip of the spear that was reaching towards his face.

He raised his sword above his head.

The magical power surrounding the sword shone more brilliantly than ever before.

Kang Hyuk was certain of victory as he looked at the sword that stretched high into the sky.

“Sorry, I can’t lose this time either.”

“under… … X feet.”

Kanghyuk struck down the sword, and the swordlight swallowed the spearman.

Kanghyeok looked down at the spearman, who had been completely stretched out after being hit by a magical blow, with a tired face.

The final blow must have been quite a shock, and the magic protection device attached to the guy’s chest sparked and stopped working.

When Kanghyuk looked around, all the team members had already finished fighting and were standing.

-Wheeyiik!

Speakers installed everywhere announce the end of the battle.

[what… … . It’s lacking, but it’s not bad.]

After the battle, the team members are preparing to leave. Kang Hyuk inserts the Ego Sword into the scabbard around his waist.

Kanghyuk could hear the ego sword’s joyful hum. He touched the handle of the sword at his waist.

As I listened to the hum in my head, one side of my heart felt tingly.

The power given by the Ego Sword certainly raised Kang-hyeok’s abilities easily.

The sense of alienation from the sudden improvement in ability rather disturbed Kang Hyuk.

Although he won, the thought that he did not win entirely with his own ability kept dominating his head.

As if reading his thoughts, Ego Sword spoke.

[What else is so serious. Don’t you think you won by using me?]

“… … This is not my ability.”

[Ah, enjoy all the things you enjoy, damn it.]

At the sharp blow, Kanghyuk raised his head.

[If it wasn’t for you who caught me, I would have refused.]

“What is that… … ?”

[hmm. If it was that tanned kid over there, I wouldn’t have woken up when I was dead. look what it looks like If it looks awkward, it’s not my type.]

At the words of the ego sword, Kanghyuk looked at the golden sun.

[Son. In short, the fact that you can use me is your ability.]

“… … .”

[under… … I’m so dumbfounded. Do I look like such a cheap sword that gives away my ability to anyone? It’s not like that.]

“… … .”

[What kind of guy is this? I am only your sword. Is there a problem with the swordsman using the ability of the sword?]

“No, no.”

[okay. Hey, if you don’t have the ability with stupid words, stand up at least with a sword. Anyway, it’s picky, really.]

Kang Hyuk couldn’t answer the unfamiliar feeling.

that someone is looking out for you. It was a special experience for Kang Hyuk.

After his parents died, he was always his guardian.

I thought the world was full of people who would bite him and eat his flesh… … .

I never thought of relying on anyone.

[Stand up your back, straighten your shoulders! Child, open your eyes straight and look ahead.]

Kanghyuk corrected his posture as his ego told him to. I only corrected my posture, but I felt that my vision was much higher.

[okay. You look like a person now why are you so insecure Be proud!]

“My talents have to be a bit miserable.”

[what the. Even so, I can’t see the person I’ve chosen going anywhere and getting beaten up. you have no talent? Then I will help you.]

“If you tried to help me, you would have a hard time?”

[I worry more about you than I do.]

“Ha-, yes.”

I felt the corners of my mouth go up strangely at Ego Sword’s words.

[So what’s your name?]

“Kanghyuk, Kang, Hyuk. you?”

[Yeriel.]

Kanghyuk seemed to be able to get along well with Ego Sword, no, Yeriel.

* * *

“Sun! it’s over!”

“Uh, yes.”

I turned around for a moment at the voice of Anya calling me, and threw the archer who was holding the collar to the side. The game was over before anyone knew it with the sound of the whistle from the speaker.

It was an easy opponent. Except for Kang Hyuk, they were at least in the middle and upper ranks, so I expected it to end easily, and it ended easily as expected.

It took me longer to catch up with the archers running away than it took to subdue the healers and archers.

Anyway, I have to admit that archers and thieves-assassins are quick.

How do you think he won?

In the distance, I found Kang Hyuk, who was almost rags and had managed to defeat the spearman.

I honestly didn’t expect to win. It was an easy opponent, but that’s relative, and I considered up to 3:1.

Chevalier also came this way while arranging her feather spears. Her armor was gleaming no different than when she started.

“To hold on to an opponent who has already passed out so tenaciously… … .”

“Because getting up and running away would be annoying.”

“Honestly, I thought of him as a third-rate villain who knocks him down right away, but his personality and skills are not proportional.”

“What, man?”

I roughly accepted Chevalier’s words and put the sword into the scabbard. Andrew was also coming towards me, throwing the shield he had ripped off from the opposing tanker on the floor.

“yo. this. It was neat.”

– Took.

My fist hit Andrew’s outstretched fist.

“Ah, the sun. Are you going to have dinner after dinner?”

“Look? are you going to come Aren’t you coming because you’re losing muscle?”

“Ah, are you going to go?”

“And he will run away in the middle.”

“Correct!”

After the game, he suggested that we get together and have a meal, but this hell-changer was still worried about muscle loss.

I stared at Andrew in amazement, and he grinned, shining his dry teeth and scalp at the same time.

Let’s not talk to him.

As I turned my head and watched the opposing team being carried away on a stretcher, Kang Hyuk approached me. He laid down his heavy burden and spoke to me with a more relaxed expression.

“Good job.”

“What is suffering? Was it worth it?”

“Oh, it was worth it.”

I heard that the funniest thing in the world is the X-food fight. It was a pity that I couldn’t see Kang Hyuk’s battle scene. Well, you can see this next time.

I smiled at Kanghyuk’s somewhat refreshing words and looked at his waist.

A pure white longsword hangs from his sword belt.

“Hey~ Hyukah, does the sword look good?”

It looked really good.
