My Disciples Know That I Am Strong

Episode 1. Gathering Heroes (Complete)

It wasn’t long after Prause left the scene.

The imperial knights gathered at the scene one after another at the tremendous explosion. In the meantime, there was also a knight commander.

The leader of the knights had already left work and was wearing plain clothes, but a sword hung from his waist.

“What the hell is this?”

The knights groaned in embarrassment at the misery inflicted by Incuro.

“Hoo, Mr. Bar.”

In one corner, the Incuro, who hadn’t let go of his anger, was huffing.

He lost most of his fortune this year, and his ego was in a scratch, and he was deeply frustrated.

The knights blinked their eyes at such an Incuro.

“Hey, isn’t that Mr. Incuro?”

“Why is that person here?”

“As expected, the drivers also came.”

At the time the knights were laughing at the Incuro, the goblin mask that served as the auctioneer stepped forward.

A group of goblin masks and a group of golden armor look at each other. It was like a confrontation, but the only thing they looked at was their eyes.

“Those goblin masks are from the Rexton Company.”

“This is it, thank you for remembering him.”

Rexton Trading.

It was the best company in the empire where Rexton was the owner.

It was said that most of the goods go through the Rexton store.

Obviously, if Rexton Co. Changes prices, it is even said that the prices of the empire change.

It was a group with considerable ripple power.

“What happened?”

The guild leader asked as he looked at the building that was all collapsing.

“There was a one-sided battle.”

“A one-sided battle?”

If it’s a battle, it’s a battle. What do you mean by a one-sided battle?

The knight commander tilted his head.

“It was a battle between Incuro and the unknown who participated in the slave auction.”

“Inkuro? Are you sure you mean the S-class adventurer Incuro?”

“Yes.”

‘If it’s a fight committed by an S-class adventurer, it certainly makes sense.’

Recalling the intense pillar of fire that lit up the night sky, he looked around. It didn’t take him long to find Incuro dented in a corner.

“But why are there only Incuro here? Opponent?”

“I left.”

“What?! No, do you leave after making this division?”

“Because he is innocent. Even if he is guilty, he had better not stop him.”

“…… What do you mean?”

“He proved it with a single sum. He said he was stronger than Incuro. He didn’t even attack.”

“What?”

He stretched out his arm and pointed at Incuro. The pupils of the knights, including the leader of the knights, turned to Incuro. Incuro was ‘f*ck-f*ck’ while covering his face with his hands.

‘I can’t believe Kuro, a lump of pride, is like that. Just how strong was he?’

“If he had seen him in person, he wouldn’t have thought that even the knight commander would stop him.”

At his words, the captain of the knights trembled.

“Anyway, I judged that the person who only defended against Incuro’s attack could not be held accountable, so I held the Incuro’s unilateral attack guilty.”

“You beat Incuro only by defense? Doesn’t that make a bit of sense?”

“If the knight commander were here, he would never have said such a thing. Overwhelming physical strength that did not tremble or be pushed back even when receiving Zweihender from Incuro head-on, overwhelming magical power that took no damage even in the face of fierce explosions and pillars of fire. He had both.”

Strength and mana to take down an S-class.

It was proof that enough talent had appeared to shake the empire.

“…… Did you see his face?”

“I didn’t see it. He was wearing a mask with a deterrence spell on him.”

“Sorry. First of all, let’s talk about that later, and until the situation is completely settled, our knights will lead the area.”

“Thank you very much.”

The mask bows respectfully.

* * *

Suck.

The leader of the Black Gwangjo, the 1st Crown Prince’s exclusive assassin unit with the right to succeed, entered through the window of the Crown Prince’s office.

“First of all, I apologize for invading the crown prince’s territory without the prince’s calling. I had a story I needed to tell urgently, so I had no choice but to risk disrespect.”

“What is it?”

The arrival of the leader of the Black Gwangjo, who was supposed to monitor the identities of the S-class adventurers, was enough to let him know that the situation was not serious.

The golden-haired man put his quill pen into the ink well. He brushes his hair with a languid face.

“Did you hear the explosion a moment ago?”

“I heard. It sounded like thunder. At that level, it would have been heard in most areas of Pretium. So what is it?”

“Yes. That sound was the sound of an explosion from the battle between Incuro and an opponent earlier.”

The prince frowned. It was a beauty that did not collapse even when wrinkles appeared on his face.

“Inkurowa? Are you talking about that lunatic S-class adventurer?”

“Yes.”

“So?”

“The battle ended with Incuro’s one-sided attack.”

“Huh. If the Incuro guy attacked unilaterally, the opponent would surely die. It was that powerful.”

The prince gave a small chuckle in anticipation. However, the captain remained silent as if embarrassed.

The prince, who noticed this, opened his mouth to confirm.

“…… Are my expectations wrong?”

“That is…… The opponent blocked Incuro’s attack with one hand.”

“What…… ?”

The pupil of the prince, who had not taken his eyes off the papers, turned to the leader for the first time.

“Even in front of a pillar of fire boiling like lava, I was proudly facing him with a face that didn’t feel any emotion.

Captain Heukgwangjo felt the thrill as he recalled the battle at the time.

“In the end, people from the Rexton Company intervened on the way, and the battle came to a halt. If the fight continued, Incuro would be expected to die on the spot.”

“I can’t imagine that Incuro dying.”

“That was an overwhelming gap. This is the first time I’ve seen Incuro not be able to do anything with either power or magic.”

“That means…… Wouldn’t it be safe to say that the eighth S-class adventurer, who climbed and descended only by talking, came out?”

“I could say yes, but I think a little differently. As a result of directly observing the battle, that person was not simply a person to be evaluated as an S-class adventurer. A ‘hero’ who surpasses S-class adventurers may have appeared.”

“A warrior?”

The prince rose from his seat with his eyes wide open.

“Are you saying that a hero who can defeat the demon king has appeared?!”

“Not sure. However, according to the experiences I have accumulated throughout my life, it has been passed down through word of mouth since ancient times that a person called a warrior has an overwhelming force compared to any person currently praised as strong.”

“And not long ago, someone with the power to crush an S-class adventurer, who is said to be stronger than anyone else in the world, appeared. That’s it.”

“Yes.”

“But you’re not sure, are you?”

“Yes.”

“Then I see what you need to do to have that conviction.”

“I will risk my life to bring you information.”

“Good. Go and see.”

The moment the leader got up from his seat, he disappeared. The prince grinned at the leader who disappeared as if he was assimilated into the shadow.

“A warrior… …. It’s fun.”

The prince muttered as he looked down at the documents.

“…… I do not raise disciples.”

I, her incompetent, take her, her champion, as her apprentice?

That was absurd.

I’ve already cleared the game once, so I can give you advice on the future or how to grow.

But that was all I could do.

As a teacher, there was nothing he could teach his students.

The three warriors, including Maria, will grow on their own just by awakening.

“Uh, why? I am an elf. He has been familiar with Mana since he was born, and can do anything. Even if that’s the case, go to bed—”

“Shut up.”

“!”

I said. He flinches and takes a step away from me.

Whoops, the kid has something to say. Can anyone be made a criminal?

“What happened? You’re laughing. Do you think you can be of any help to me, just out of slavery?”

“Ha, but you bought me, wasn’t it because I was doing something useful to you?”

This is sharp, right?

The reason I bought her, being her player.

The reason why she had no choice but to gather warriors.

It was to prevent this country from collapsing to the demons.

“…… But at least not for now.”

“Then do you accept me as a disciple when you think it will be helpful?”

Was Maria originally such an active character?

I know that she holds a grudge against humans as much as Iris.

She saw firsthand how her family, relatives, and acquaintances were killed and enslaved in the elven forest where she lived. Even at a younger age than now.

That’s why she clung to me so earnestly.

I know. I know very well.

But even so, I couldn’t be strong enough to accept her as her disciple.

Because I became possessed as a weak character.

“Know your position and fraction. Now that you are freed from slavery, do you think you have gained freedom?”

Get up from her bench and look down at her. It also exudes life softly.

Mary’s gaze, which was on me, gradually falls to the ground. She finally bows her head.

“…… Sin, sorry.”

The waist is bent.

Sorry, but this is the reality.

“Go. Follow me.”

I looked at her and walked towards her inn.

“Hey, as the person I will be living with in the future, may I ask for your name?”

At her words, she stopped and looked back at her. Maria, who erected her back at some point, had a face that was prepared for something.

I don’t know what that resolution is, but I hope it doesn’t kill me.

I took off her mask by untying the straps that were fastened to her hair. Her perception lifted and her bare face was revealed to her.

“…… It’s Prause.”

“Prause. I will remember.”

“Go.”

I replied bluntly and did not stop my steps.

* * *

“Huh? Are you pretty good looking?”

On the roof of the three-story building, Dex, the leader of the Secret Garden, muttered as he watched Prauss take off his mask.

‘To think that a warm-hearted man who didn’t seem to have had a proper fight survived intact in the heat storm without receiving the Incuro’s attack head-on. It’s safe to say that the ability is at least S-class or higher.’

In his head, Dex stored information about his appearance.

It was the moment he was about to move to figure out where he was staying.

“!”

Chicken flesh sprouted all over Dex’s body.

‘Do you feel alive? No way…… !’

He was on the roof and hurriedly hid himself.

‘Eh, can you feel the popularity of this street?! It’s not like I put a barrier with magic…… ! That’s ridiculous!’

He was frightened inside. He slowly raises his head. He closed his mouth and stopped breathing as Prause was still looking at him.

‘That’s a monster! sh*t! I’m not going to die like this?!’

Dex fiddled with the will he had tucked inside his clothes, thinking that he might have to hand over his guild to his vice-captain.

While Dex had such an illusion, Prause saw that the moon was tilting a lot, and he said again that he would not get much sleep today.
