The Hero Disciple Is Back

EP.52 – 51. The disciple meets the prince

The first prince became the crown prince.

No one considered it as the first prince’s victory in the battle between the first and second prince’s successors. Everyone thought that in a power struggle between the first prince and the emperor, the first prince had defeated the emperor and stood at the top of the empire. As if to prove that, the emperor’s face at the installation ceremony was truly miserable, no different from that of a living corpse. No one worried about it or expressed it in words. The nobles were so ignorant that they didn’t know that making such a statement at the crown prince’s installation ceremony would only ruin the atmosphere.

As soon as the 1st prince ascended to the position of crown prince, by entrusting him with the deputy government, it became known to the world that the emperor was nothing more than a scarecrow with only the name of emperor.

After that, everything revolved around the crown prince. No one found it strange. It was strange because no one knew that it was the same as challenging a new absolute power. Above all, Sir Galahad Patton, who was known to be the most loyal to the emperor, acted as his sword next to the crown prince, so the pro-emperor faction did not even dare to step forward while noticing. In the first place, they were not the ones who were sincerely loyal to the emperor. They only gathered because they seemed to have a lot to eat. There was no way anyone would be willing to risk their lives to fight like that. Galahad, who seemed to be at least like that, went to the prince’s side first and became his sword… . The future of the pro-Hwang faction was very clear.

In the end, the entire empire now returned to the center of the crown prince.

Even though the person concerned was just feeling bewildered.

“… Was it something that could be obtained so easily?”

incredibly hard… . Wouldn’t it be possible to reach it only if we really risked our lives to fight? I thought it would be difficult to reach the top of the empire that much. In fact, in the history of the empire, it was always natural to shed a lot of blood to reach the top of the empire. So, he thought that he would be able to rise only through such sacrifices and costs.

I never thought I would stand at the top of the empire so easily… .

Even though I know well that it is reality, I keep doubting that it is a dream. It was inevitable that he reached the top so easily that he couldn’t help but doubt it.

“You have to hold on tight. Because now you are no different from the emperor.”

The prince was not taken aback. I wasn’t surprised, as I had expected Sera to appear this way.

“Are you here, warrior?”

It was Sera who was officially recognized as a hero in the name of the wandering god and saint. If it had been the emperor who was ruling the empire, he would have listened to it to drag on (and he would have listened to use it in a way that would benefit his power), but the crown prince had no intention of doing so, so he planned to announce that the hero was Sarah right away.

“Now he is practically at the top of the empire. Can you bend your back that lightly?”

“No matter how great your power is, you can’t save the world, can you? When the world collapses, power is just a torn piece of paper.”

From the beginning, the prince had no intention of living like an emperor if he were to stand at the top of the empire. For the son, the father has two meanings of existence. One is the sense of competition that one must pursue, and the other is the opposite teacher. A son with a great father lives with a desire to surpass such a father, and a son with an irresponsible father thinks that such a father will be a teacher on the other hand and will never become a grown-up like that.

In that sense, to the crown prince, the father of the emperor was an irresponsible father who had to be perfectly treated as a teacher. He was always intoxicated with his own power, so he only thought about himself and only about filling his stomach with his own desires. The emperor was in the same position as the parents of all the people, but to him, the people were just tools to use for his own desires.

Therefore, he made up his mind from a young age to live differently from his father.

That’s why even the waist he would never have bowed to if it were his father, he could have bowed for the sake of the Empire.

he is emperor

All the people were his children whom he was to protect.

So for that reason, if you lowered your back, you could bow down, and if you were told to kneel, you could kneel. That was the emperor’s responsibility as the emperor he had decided since he was young.

Seeing that, Sarah smiled. It wasn’t a bright smile. It was a smile with a different meaning.

“I wish I could keep that kind of heart.”

Those words echoed in the prince’s ears, ‘How long can you really do that?’

“Of course, it will not change until the moment I die.”

Sera knows the crown prince.

You know more about him than he does.

He doesn’t know his own nature.

It is natural.

This is because human nature is something that can truly come out only when it has fallen to the bottom. He was born into the royal family and has always lived a leisurely life. As such, there was no situation to reveal his true nature. So he has no idea what kind of nature he has, and how completely different he is from his plausible appearance.

The hero of infinite return had seen the true nature of the crown prince in his numerous and varied experiences. And Sera knew very well that the appearance was completely different from the original nature that the prince had imagined.

‘But it might be different this time.’

Nature is nature. That is a fact. But that didn’t make it all true. Humans are not beasts. Instinct does not solve everything. That is, just because they have nature doesn’t mean that it determines everything about humans. Human beings can change as much as they need, and they use various things to get the desired result. In other words, even if you have such a nature, if you do not want it, you can exclude your own nature and use everything else to reach the result you want.

So, in this round

Even the crown prince might be able to obtain the results he had hoped for.

Just as the wandering saintess, who should have perished without leaving anything behind, disappeared leaving behind valuable things.

So this time, it won’t be bad if you put your hopes on it.

Sarah decided to think so.

“I came here because I have something to tell you.”

“Are you in serious trouble?”

“Hmm. It’s not a very serious problem for me. It could be a serious problem for you.”

“What is it?”

“The sword saint will come.”

“… … ?!”

Sword Saint

That name was enough to embarrass the crown prince, even though he stood at the top of the empire.

♧♧♧

Although it is said to be a swordsman

To be honest, I thought that name didn’t suit her very well.

If he was from a commoner in the first place, there would have been no doubt that he would have been given an ominous name like a swordsman rather than a swordsman. However, the Sword Saint was from a high-ranking aristocracy, and that’s why he got the name Sword Saint.

To be called the Sword Saint, he was just an old man crazy about swords. To be honest, the name Geomseong was more suitable for the sword demon, and the name Geomseong was more suitable for the sword. Because of his aristocratic background, the sword castle was given the unsuitable name of the sword castle.

As I said before, he was completely crazy about swords. And at the same time, it was also the strongest sword in the Empire no matter what anyone said. It is safe to say that he was the strongest transcendentalist to the extent that even using the expression, the first sword of the Empire, or the first sword in the world, could not be compared.

If you’ve reached that level, I think you’ll be satisfied, but… . he was not satisfied Unsatisfied, he continued to want to become stronger. Maddened by the sword and reaching its edge, he was still mad about the sword and wanted something new.

But he was someone who had already reached the top of the sword.

No matter how much he yearns for something new… . There was nothing new to him. There was no way that such a thing could exist. But even so, he wanted to keep going crazy with the sword.

That’s why one day I thought so.

I mean, if you don’t have it, you can make it.

If there is nothing new among the things that exist now, it is enough to allow the new things to be born among the things that will be born in the future. If the past and the present cannot satisfy you, you can use the future.

So the swordsman started doing things he hadn’t done before.

That is what accepting and raising disciples is all about.

It was because among those disciples, perhaps there could be a being who could show something new that he had never imagined.

In other words, for him, a disciple is not a disciple.

It was literally nothing different from the test subject.

It was also a maniac who did not regard the test subject as a living being and hacked it like crazy to get the result. That was the Sword Master.

At first, the parents who had been sent because the swordsman was raising students tried to argue with their children when they returned to the ruins, but… . The problem was that there was no one who could stop the Sword Saint. Even the emperor, who wanted to put everything under his control, made an exception for the swordsman.

To such a swordsman, the plan to become a candidate for the hero had to be quite interesting, and that’s why he accepted the candidate as a disciple.

And

Enough to think of himself as an expert disciple

Among the teachers of Sera who served countless teachers,

The swordsman also occupied a place among them.

And among the rounds where he served the swordsman as his teacher,

Sera kills her teacher, the Sword Saint.

There was a time when he had obtained the name of the Sword Saint.
