10 – About my student being a genius (2)

I was taken aback by the sudden request from the little boy.

I soon understood why. The little boy wanted to play with me. Well, that little thing lost its parents. Because I was the only person I could trust. What would you have done?

But since I’ve been away for a long time. It’s not unreasonable to have such a reaction. So I decided to just play around with it. Because I’m free now anyway.

Let’s try to match the rhythm of the kid as much as possible. And if we exercise together, it will be good for each other. If there is a situation where you have to run away with all your might, there may come a time.

“Okay, I’ll teach you swordsmanship.”

“Whoa! Thank you so much!”

“However, there are conditions.”

“Yes? Conditions?”

“Never, you must not wield this power carelessly.”

I had no intention of playing moderately. I’m going to play with it, I’m going to make up my mind and adapt it to the little boy’s setting. Fortunately, I had a role model. The masters who come out of martial arts.

“There is nothing wrong with the sword. Only the person who uses the sword is at fault.”

“……In other words, it means that whatever power you use is up to you.”

“Power without responsibility will eventually destroy itself.”

“I will engrave it deeply in my heart.”

“Okay, then I’ll give you the first task first.”

The martial arts masters I read didn’t just tell me. When the main characters passed their assignments, they informed them of their secret level. And the task I set is running.

“It’s a simple task. Just beat me by running.”

“Does that mean I can run faster?”

“No, if you give up running first, you lose.”

No matter what, fitness is important. Whether it’s swordsmanship or ability. Even when doing paperwork. So, the top priority is to constantly build up your stamina through running.

Of course, it’s more serious than I thought for a game. In the first place, if it were real, there was no way I could become a teacher. Because, technically speaking, I was just a beginner.

But this is nothing more than play. After a while, you’ll get tired of it or quit because it’s hard. If that’s the case, I’ll just have to match the rhythm until then.

Besides, I had no intention of seeing it in the first place. As I trained up until now, at least I was confident in my physical strength. But that confidence soon faded.

“Heh, heh heh…!!!”

Scared to start running. The little boy ran with all his might. So I thought I would get tired easily. But even after running 20 laps around the vacant lot, the kid never stopped.

Rather, I, who was running behind, got tired first. Nonsense, I’m still running at full speed. You don’t show any signs of exhaustion? Are you a person? isn’t it a machine?

“Enough! That’s enough.”

“Did you pass the assignment?”

“An indomitable spirit that never gives up. It passed brilliantly.”

“Then praise me!”

I felt like I was dying to keep my poker face. Because right now I’m taking on the role of martial arts master. If the master falls short of the disciple, is it written? Then the master is disqualified.

On the other hand, are you not tired even after running like that? The little boy was running around like a dog running around excitedly on a snowy day. I barely managed to squeeze my voice into praise.

“Good job.”

“lol…….”

I just stopped when I stroked my hair. His tireless stamina was like watching a beagle. Thanks to that, trying to hide my exhaustion as much as possible, I was about to die alone. f*ck!

“Then stop here.”

“Ah… sir!”

“huh?”

“I… I can do better next time too!”

“All right, next?”

Oh right. Come to think of it, this was such a game. Today I was just going to run and finish it. Because of the boy’s bottomless stamina, he failed.

So what do we do now? I desperately shook my head. Shall we teach real swordsmanship? No, that’s not okay. What if you get hurt by imitating me for not telling me? What are you going to do then?

Besides, I don’t have the skills to tell others in the first place. The basic swordsmanship I learned at the training ground right now is barely on the level of following. Who am I to teach swordsmanship?

“actually…….”

“Yes, teacher!”

“…”

I was just trying to tell the truth. I couldn’t look away from the pure sparkling eyes in front of me. It is the duty of adults to protect children’s innocent dreams.

“Actually, I have a legendary arcane swordsmanship.”

“Legendary arcane swordsmanship…?!”

“In the name of it… the thunder dragon sword method!!”

oops, i don’t know Be as it is. It’s not like anyone is listening to this anyway. By the way, of course it’s bullsh*t. I just brought something suitable from the martial arts area I saw.

“Rain dragon sword method…?!”

“It’s a swordsmanship imbued with the power of the thunder dragon that rules the sky.”

“It’s a great swordsmanship!!”

At this point, you might notice that it’s bullsh*t. Our pure little boy seems to believe my words. All eyes were shining brightly. The little boy opened his mouth.

“I really want to see you!”

“uh……?”

“Isn’t it okay…?

I didn’t expect this. I hope you ask me to show you When I was a little taken aback, the little boy looked downcast. looked up at me I’m sorry, I have no choice but to do this… … !

“If you really want to see it.”

“Thank you very much, sir!”

“Wait a minute.”

It was good to have a good momentum. What should I do now? Right now, I bought a little time in the name of preparing. Of course, it was only a shallow number.

But in such a short time, do you have to prepare for the Thunder Dragon Sword? Will that work? But I can’t say no now. after much contemplation. I just found the tomb.

Anyway, shouldn’t it just look like the Thunder Dragon Sword? About the real brain dragon sword. ‘Cause there’s no way this kid knows I brought a suitable bundle of straw from nearby.

At first, I tried to demonstrate with wood. soon gave up There’s no way I could cut down a tree with a sword in the first place. When I brought the straw, the little boy asked me a question.

“Are you showing me now?”

“Yes. Keep your eyes open and watch.”

“Yes, teacher!”

Was it not a lie? The little boy’s eyes focused on my sword. I’m not lying, it felt like my real hand would be pierced. I stuck out my tongue and put my hand on the handle of the sword.

And at the same time, time stopped.

Everything around me turned gray. Tree branches swaying in the wind and snowballs falling from the branches. everything has stopped

After confirming that time had stopped, I walked to the bundle of straw I had prepared in front of me. Then he drew his sword and swung it with all his might. Fortunately, my skills are now good enough to cut straw bales.

After neatly cutting the straw diagonally, I put the sword into the scabbard. And he took a stance behind a sheaf of straw. The point here is not to completely insert the sword.

Leaving about 1 in 3 minutes. OK, that’s enough. The stopped time started to flow again. Only then did the cut straw fall to the ground. I blinked and rolled my eyes.

I could feel the little boy’s eyes shifting to me. Matching the timing, the sword that had left about 1 in 3 minutes. lead completely Soon, a metallic clicking sound rang out.

“Just now, what the heck was that…?!”

“What did you see?”

“…I didn’t see anything.”

Oops, I got so conceited that I unknowingly copied Master Martial Arts Master’s way of speaking. And a more serious reaction than expected came back. Thanks to that, I showed my improvisation here.

“This is the second task.”

“……!!!”

“Look at the thunder dragon.”

I was so absorbed in it that I unknowingly spit it out. Then the little boy made a shocked expression, and then ran away without looking back. Thanks to that, I was the only one who was left alone.

sh*t… … Was it too much middle school?

Still, this should have been enough.

* * *

The girl’s red eyes didn’t miss a single thing.

Even those who wield their swords diligently in the training ground. Even the fist that was swung at himself. Nothing, the girl never missed. But missed the first time. It is also the teacher’s sword.

It was a shock. It wasn’t someone else’s, how could I miss the teacher’s sword? At least I swore I wouldn’t miss a single one of yours. I couldn’t keep that oath.

However, what was more shocking was the teacher’s reaction. As if you knew beforehand. No, if you were a teacher, you would have already known. Because he was my teacher.

[This is the second task.]

The second task the teacher said. What is it? The girl already knew the answer. Seeing the sword that I could never see, as if it were in another world.

[Look at the thunder dragon.]

There must be a reason why the teacher showed it directly. Remember, several times. the scene you saw. Remind yourself over and over again. And you have to try to put it in your eyes somehow.

Fortunately, there is still time left. The girl raised a sword. It was just a wooden stick that was too weak to be called a sword. To the girl, it was a sword that was unmistakable.

And the girl puts her sword on her waist, as if she were about to strike. pulled out Its appearance was similar to that of her master. No, no. It’s not like this.

that Master showed.

To reach that sword… … !!!
