My Disciples Know That I Am Strong

Episode 3. Misunderstanding that gets worse (7)

“You’re bothering me all day.”

“Can’t you? Because you have that weapon.”

Ariel points to the sword hanging from my waist.

“Then wouldn’t it bother me if I gave this to someone else?”

“Hmm. That’s troublesome.”

“Why?”

“I don’t think anyone can stay possessed for as long as you, and Phasma and you are more alike than you think. That’s why I think talking to other people will reduce the sense of immersion.”

Do they look alike?

Is it similar to the meaning that Phasma has the right mana wavelength?

“What do you mean?”

“Okay. I’m not sure, but you’re quite ‘heterogeneous’. I don’t know why.”

I almost reacted without realizing it to the word heterogeneous.

If it wasn’t for the facial expression management skill, I would have expressed my emotions on my face.

As expected, the Spirit King is different.

Did you notice that I am a ‘stranger’?

“And you have one more reason to possess now. So you better do it quickly.”

[I see. I think it would be better to follow Eri’s words.]

“Why?”

[Someone has invaded this annex. He is quite strong.]

Is there someone invading the duchy?

There are so many knights in the duchy, how did they get in?

“…… Is it.”

Come to think of it, there is only one.

An absolute strongman who doesn’t say anything even if he walks in and out of the duke’s house at will.

As soon as I put my hand on the sword, I recited the skill.

“「Ghost」.”

Create an ego so that Phasma can rule my body at any time.

“It’s Maria’s room.”

Said Ariel, closing her eyes.

It was using the ability to sense wind. The wind is everywhere, so you can know anything.

“My friend, is Maria a precious child to you?”

She nodded at Phasma’s unexpected words.

“…… Uh. Tina, Iris, and Maria are all precious children. It cannot be exchanged for anything.”

“Yes. Because it’s a ‘hero’.”

“I knew that. Ariel.”

“I don’t know. You knew that those kids would awaken as warriors, right? That’s why I bought it for the amount of 1,300 gold. Yes?”

“…… Now you seem to believe what I said.”

“To be honest, the story of demons attacking the empire after a few years is a long one. But the authenticity of your words has been proven.”

She grinned.

I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I can be sure of one thing.

As the spirit king, Ariel would never betray the hero.

It’s not even the four spirit kings who can defeat the demon lord, it’s only the warriors.

As long as the demon king is alive, the demons will survive and threaten the spirit realm at any time. For the demon king, making a gate that transcends dimensions would be nothing.

“Even if you’re a hero, you’re still immature. If you’re the child’s guardian, should you help? Prause.”

“Of course.”

“If I had signed a contract with someone directly, I could intervene, but for now I have no choice but to trust Phasma.”

“I know.”

The Spirit King cannot intervene in the human realm.

It was because of the constraints between worlds.

To offset this constraint to some extent, a ‘contract’ had to be made. Only then could he obtain the cause and effect to interfere with the human world.

“Looking at it, it seems like there is nothing Prause doesn’t know. As if he had already lived in this world.”

It was a keen guess.

But that wasn’t entirely true.

I have never lived in this world. Even if I’ve seen it through other characters.

“I will leave it to you this time. Phasma. Save Maria.”

“Of course you should listen to your friend’s request.”

Moving my body, he ran out of the room and sensibly realized that Maria was in front of the door and cut through the wall.

He admired inwardly as he watched the wall being cut like paper.

The pink-haired cat, Soo-in, was blocking Maria’s mouth.

Seeing that, I immediately tried to open my mouth, but Phasma was faster.

“Let Maria go, you motherf*cker.”

…… Huh?

Savage words came out of his mouth.

“Pasma, I didn’t say to curse.”

“Isn’t he a precious person? I dared to touch a precious person, but wouldn’t it be cool to f*ck a bowl of swearing?”

Oh my God. Because you know who that is.

Pasma, this bastard is older than I thought.

“What is this?”

The pink cat that covered Maria’s mouth glared at me. It was a wonderful life.

“Ninja…… ?”

My brow furrowed at the unusual attire.

It was a very revealing outfit.

It was a tight-fitting uniform to show off one’s figure, and stockings to arouse a man’s desire.

I liked the appearance as drawn by the illustrator, but I couldn’t help but feel reluctant to see it in reality.

“Women can’t take care of themselves!”

Phasma finally couldn’t stand it and shouted.

“Stop talking nonsense.”

“I don’t know why you keep talking to yourself… …. How dare you break down the wall of the duke’s annex?”

Looking at us, he pulls out his dagger.

She must have thought that she should subdue us before Maria did, so she removed her hand that was blocking her mouth.

At that moment, I moved my body straight away.

“High-speed movement.”

In an instant, Maria was intercepted and distanced from her. I hugged her unintentionally, but never selfishly.

“Ph, Prause…… ?”

Tears welled up in my eyes. I wiped away the flowing tears with the back of my hand.

“Aren’t you hurt?”

“Yes, yes.”

“All right. Then.”

She let her go and looked at her pink cat and sharpened her blade.

“Look at that, wasn’t it good that you were possessed?”

Ariel giggled, her arms crossed. She seemed calm in the world only for herself. I ignored her and opened her mouth.

“Respond when an attack comes.”

“Okay.”

“Hey, you are fast. What? What is that aura sword? Are you sure you are the sixth Sword Master?”

“What are you like? Are you a whore? Why are you dressed like that?”

“What? Prostitute?”

Wait, why are you talking like that?

I was startled by Phasma’s words and tried to hurriedly deal with it, but this time he spoke first.

“To touch a child because there is nothing to touch.”

The aura of vengeance shines even brighter.

“I will kill you.”

No, you can’t kill me. Does she know that this woman is a commissioned subject?

“Phasma, don’t kill me.”

“Okay. Buy it, but tear it up.”

f*ck, how is that different from killing?!

“How dare you call me a whore?!”

Kang!

Phasma, who correctly read the trajectory of her sword, blocked her dagger.

But it wasn’t relaxing.

Her hand holding the sword trembled at the strength of the pink cat. It felt like her muscle bundles were snapping. My forearm muscle was tingling just by blocking it.

“You too… You can load mana into your weapon.”

“Why did you think only you could do it?”

It was just to load mana into the weapon and prevent it from being damaged by the Aura Sword. It was not able to form an aura sword perfectly like Phasma.

“I will kill you!”

“Who is killing whom?”

Perhaps the arrogant tone has ignited the fire, the cat puts down the cane she was holding, takes out her dagger and tries to stab her in the chest. However, she twists her body and swings her sword while leisurely avoiding it.

Kang!

I’m blocked again.

“The speed is quite good. Power isn’t good enough, is it? Are you really a sword master?”

“…… “Illusion Sword”.”

The most basic form of the illusion swordsmanship.

It is a technique that changes the trajectory of the sword irregularly.

It seemed that the skill was written with the idea that if it couldn’t be done by force, it would be enough to make it unrecognizable and prevent it from being blocked.

Because only mana can stop the aura sword.

Even the mana-infused skin was not enough to block the aura sword loaded with vast amounts of mana.

Booung-!

But even so, her phasma strike did not reach her.

It was because Koang skillfully jumped backwards and avoided the sword attack.

“Hey…… It’s an amazing technique. I couldn’t see the trajectory of the sword. Who are you? It’s fun, this.”

She climbed onto the table and showed her interest while crouching down like a cat.

Her tail waggled as if she was more interested in the existence of the country than in the fight.

“I am not funny. So stop now, ‘Urca’.”

“…… How do you know my name?”

“Urca? As for Urca…….”

Did you notice it now? Damn Phasma.

Just drying was enough. She didn’t even have to fight.

“I see. Was this guy the subject of a request?”

“How do you know about me?”

Urca’s eyes changed.

Her eyes did not change, but the pupils of her pupils were torn vertically and changed to those of a beast.

“Duke Tori told me.”

“Haa, why are you saying that when you don’t even know you’re an enemy… …. That fool.”

“Sorry, but I am not your enemy. Being in the annex is only here because of the Duke’s consideration.”

“… What?”

“And that would be good.”

Because I’m not the only person I have to deal with right now.

Tina and Iris stood in front of me almost at the same time and glared at Urca.

“Prause, are you okay?”

“Is that you? What attacked Prause?”

Both of them were drawing their swords.

I thought it was too early for Tina, so she wasn’t given an ‘aura’, but as her sword master, no matter what sword was given to her, she was bound to be the strongest.

“Whoa. What else is this?”

As she repeatedly threw and grabbed the dagger, a different color flashed in her eyes.

“Just because there are a few guys like you, do you think they can beat me? I was doing my best to protect the annex as much as possible. It won’t work.”

She said, slipping the dagger between her fingers before she knew it. She sees flames shoot from her dagger.

Looking at that, I can be a little more certain now.

A girl who made a contract with Ifrit and another fire spirit, Ignis, and has Kunoichi characteristics that match her outfit.

She was Urca, an S-class adventurer I knew.

“I’ll give you a ride to the annex. Just kill-“

“Stop it, Urca!”

Duke Tori, who hastily ran in, cut in between us.

“…… Tori?”

Urca’s eyes softened at the sudden intrusion of the duke.

“Why are you there? Dangerously. Come on.”

“Urca! These are the guests I personally invited!”

“Yes…… ?”

She opened her eyes and tilted her head. The Duke of Tori was shaking his head as he wrapped his forehead.

“I always told you to think before you act. Isn’t it just causing an accident by crashing into it like that!!”

“Ah…… Ah… ? Ahahahaha, that was it.”

Dududuk!

The dagger with the embers asleep fell on the floor.

Urca’s pupils turn round. Scratching her head shyly, she apologized with a round feeling.

“I’m sorry. This.”

It was a flaw that I couldn’t feel the sincerity.
