chapter 21
6-2. There is a one letter difference between misunderstanding and understanding.
***
The black knight and the glass knight headed for the swordsmanship training ground.
Kinel and Ariel started talking while looking at the back.
“Kai.. Why the hell did you do that earlier?”
“Intuition, intuition. I saw it yesterday, and no matter how much I think about it, Richt and Mardol are very similar.”
The blonde-haired warrior grinned. I slightly understood what Richt was thinking in the carriage. This is the perspective of a person watching from afar.
“It’s almost identical to Mr. Helm… except that one wears only a helmet.”
“At least Mardol doesn’t seem like a bad kid. It’s nice to be friends with the freshmen.”
“However, it means that the exchange of swordsmanship was acknowledged by each other…”
I thought of the glass knight who used to hand out candies at a bakery. He’s covered in armor, so I don’t know what’s inside, but he seems like a nice guy, probably getting along with Ariel.
“Well, if Richt begs for both hands and calls me hyung, I am confident that I can exchange them. Ariel.”
“I think all of the kids who use swords are weird..”
The red-haired wizard let out a sigh.
Coming to think of it, gray hair would make you stand out at the academy, but when Licht wasn’t there, I did a little bit of searching, but no one looked like that.
‘Wouldn’t it be important to spread my feet first? Richt.’
An armor that looks luxurious to anyone. He knows that he is a high-ranking person no matter how ignorant he is. If you use the intelligence of such a person, it will be easy to find someone you love.
I just think of it as a reward for my swordsmanship training.
Kainel thanked Licht for helping her become stronger. In fact, she was ranked 3rd in practice time as well.
This is the result of being confidently occupied without being pushed back by the children of nobles who have been trained. He had some feelings of gratitude for his friend who wore the black knight helmet.
***
“..Who is talking about me?”
Suddenly, a sneeze came out. It’s spring, so it’s not even chilly outside. Every time I come here, I feel the cold. Why? She must be struggling to take the saintess route.
A swordsmanship training ground inside the academy.
I had to deal with overdue appointments. I looked at the knight in heavy armor. This is the 2nd visit this week alone.
“You remember the trade with magic, right?”
“Right.”
Nodding. Mardol’s head kept shaking. Is it good to be that strong? Unlike yesterday, he seemed a little excited.
“All I can teach you is one meal.”
“That alone is enough.”
I pulled a sword out of its scabbard and held it up. All teeth were out. Did you just roll too much in the middle of nowhere?
“..Repair, don’t you?”
“I don’t have time. These days, even two bodies are busy.”
As soon as I pulled it out, a voice rang out from within the glass helmet. You have good eyesight, you’ll recognize it right away. It’s a very bad device to use as a demonstration right now.
“Then let’s use another sword, thank you for your concern.”
I picked up the spare weapon hanging on the wall. I don’t think it’s a real academy. The equipment is good. Shall I borrow some money later?
“From now on, I will teach you the basics of [Dragon Shadow Slash].”
“Yes, Licht.”
I approached the training wooden doll.
Concentrating on my whole body, I corrected my posture and breathed again.
The preparations are over.
“Contrast is important. It doesn’t work on enemies without a shadow.”
“I see.”
After manipulating a magic light on the ceiling to keep the shadow of the object moving.
“Shadows are irregular and thin. Among them, by digging into the ‘concept’ that is connected to reality….”
I raised my sword high into the sky. I focused on the shadow of the wooden doll in front of me. A shape that changes depending on the angle of the flickering light.
“Like this.”
Pacan─.
The dull sound of iron echoed through the training grounds. The ship left vertical scars on the ground. It’s automatically repaired by the magic circle anyway, so this should be fine.
“You can hit the real thing right away.”
Tuk, thuduk. Ppogak.
Immediately after, a piece of wood bounced off, splitting the doll exactly in half. It’s destructive power is weak, but it can only cut things like this.
“..Wow.”
The prince spat out a pure exclamation. With magic, twisting the concept like this would be a piece of cake for him. I don’t know why such a reaction. It was only through strength and skill.
‘I wonder if Master Drake felt this way too.’
I began to understand to some extent the reason why I was accepted as a disciple. This is why it came out that the game didn’t give you a job change even through data mining.
You helped me because I looked like someone in a similar situation.
‘Ha ha ha!! Have you finally recognized the generosity of this generous master?!’
A thrilling hallucination was heard. After years of rolling underneath, my body remembered it. His hands trembled a little.
“No, no matter how much I think about it, that’s not the case.”
“..?”
I shook my head. Climbing crossed the line, inspiration. It reminded me of him who took the students across the mountain road during the lecture this week.
As soon as it was over, someone fled to where. I looked at Mardol and he heard my sigh and tilted his head.
“..How is it? Need more demonstrations?”
“Just a few more times.”
He too picked up a sword hanging on the wall. Looking at it like this, it’s strange that my hands are a little small compared to the armor.
‘Is he really the crown prince?’
She’s the same height as me, so she’s definitely not a saint. Her mind got a little complicated. She cleared her mind and she talked to him.
“Then flip two coins.”
“Yes. Okay.”
Mardol took a fairy tale out of his pocket and listened. The moment the glass knight threw a copper-colored coin in my direction,
“Uh, sorry.”
An object flew at a tremendous speed. Similar feeling to Master Drake. My body responded before my eyes.
‘It’s a bit slow though.’
I stepped on the ground hard, cut it once with an oblique line, and then struck another coin using the shadow.
Clinks and clinks echoed through the floor four times.
“Strong. Also.”
“Please be careful next time.”
“Sorry.”
Maybe it’s hereditary because it’s a descendant of the ten girls. It’s like the son of a man who creates a sonic boom with brute force.
..Doesn’t this mean I don’t need my swordsmanship?
“I understand now.”
The glass knight looked at me and continued her words. Staring at his sword carefully, he walked over to the wooden doll and got into position.
You don’t use the weapon on your back. I think I saw that handle somewhere….
If you pretend to know more here, you will be flagged. Closed his mouth
“This is enough.”
“You seem to have a talent for magic.. Do you also use a sword?”
“Both.”
Mardol raised the sword over his head. It gave off the feeling that it was not a skill he had handled with a knife once or twice. Was it the way to overcome the weak points of the imperial swordsmanship with magic?
I nodded a little while looking at the unexpected look.
“I am surprised.”
Magic Swordsman Tree. The Black Knight, Licht, whom I raised before was of that kind.
I was definitely good at irregular play, but there are many advantages in this game where you never know what could happen.
I don’t know Lupus’ occupation. Why do I have to know the setting of a madman obsessed with our saintess?
Come to think of it, I’m like myself now.
Would you believe me if I said ‘I will make you happy’ when I meet you?
I imagined the look on her white hair and her contempt for me, and it made her feel sick. The male lead who says he fell in love from the beginning is the worst, so I think he will hate it.
“Okay, I’ll do it.”
Once again, my thoughts were cut off. The glass knight raised his sword towards the shaking shadow.
Toukwaaang—!
With a straight sword cutting through the floor. Power is definitely strong.
“…”
Splinters of wood were splashed in several pieces. The doll in front didn’t even move.
Mardol stiffened at the sight. Do you think this is an unexpected result? After a while, he repeated cutting the floor several times before opening his mouth.
“Oh, what? Why not..?”
“Poop, ha ha ha! That’s not it.”
There was nothing wrong with the training doll.
As expected, it’s lupus. If you did this well, I would have tried to ride a fellow route by force. In , It was nothing more than the royal family’s financial line.
“It took too much effort.”
“..Don’t laugh.”
This is a bit cheesy. You’re trying to cut ‘only’ the real shadow.
Well, if it were something that could be learned so easily, people would have crossed the river long ago after the war.
“Just a few more times.”
“Stop it. You have to use your whole body more.”
He aimed his sword again at the ground where he had left a large nick. I stepped aside and nodded, signaling for the weapon to be retracted.
“There is a reason I suffered too.”
“I don’t know. Why?”
I couldn’t stop laughing. The Mary Sue character is struggling. I think I’ve seen this kind of directing for the first time, but maybe it was corrected after seeing the swearing in the second part.
“You must have the will to cut.”
“Honestly, I don’t believe it.”
A heavily armored knight who tilts his head several times. It also has a strong feeling of being empty. It’s like a glass.
I raised my sword again and said a line that would get me out of the crown prince route.
“The reason I took up my sword is because I want to make someone unhappy happy.”
“Who is this?”
“I’m trying to pay back what I received, so it’s a secret.”
“Repay me..?”
I will never tell you. I will steadily build up flags with such netty remarks. Seeing that Kynell’s original personality came out, it would apply to me as well.
“For that person, this shadow.”
I stepped on the ground hard again. The blood flow throughout the body circulated, and the sensations were concentrated in the fingertips.
Suddenly—.
Scars of the overlapping sword. It was deeper and sharper than Mardol’s engraving. Like a swordsman’s gesture filled with the belief that he can cut shadows.
“You can ring as many times as you like. How is it, isn’t it easy?”
“..Deceiver.”
Looking at the wooden doll cut in half, he smiled. I felt Mardol glaring at me right next to me, but I ignored it. Honestly, it’s also revenge for the past.
So, in this work, don’t cling to our saintess. I will find a good groom and continue the love line.
“Then now that it’s like this, I won’t be able to learn magic. I am sorry.”
It was the time when the sword was sheathed.
“No, Licht.”
Suddenly, Mardol came close to me. A sense of distance as if pitches collided with each other. I hit the line several times to derail the route, but why?
“This is enough.”
“No, this is a failure. Anyway, yes!”
I felt something creepy. Is it confirmed that you are involved with this person because you are the main character in the third episode? The thoughts in my head got faster and faster.
Awkward.
“This is..?”
“Magic, Licht.”
The second hand was caught. My hand and his glove, of different sizes.
‘I can’t do this, the saint’s route is going wrong!’
What does that mean? I failed to teach you swordsmanship, and I also hit the neta ambassador. What’s the problem Named Harem Grinder, I became close with Nex.
“..Keep still.”
I struggled and tried to step back, but was stopped by magic the moment I twisted his wrist. He couldn’t run away from him.
“Um, why the hell is that hand over there..”
“Look carefully.”
Two knights facing each other.
The helmets reflected in each other’s helms, there was not much difference in height.
If you do decalcomani, you must feel like this. Except that I’m the only one with no armor and wearing academy clothes. Cold sweat broke out.
“Wait, wait. At least put your hands down and talk.”
“Circuit, this is possible.”
I didn’t know what to do, so my mind went blank. Are you the one who took my second?
“What.. How strong is that..”
Wriggling my fingers was the end of my resistance. The wolf king’s lineage is so deceitful. If I had known it would be like this, I would have been born as the son of a 10-year-old.
At that time, the glass knight in front of me opened his mouth.
「Merak.」
As Mardol finished chanting, an orb of light rose between us. The transparent orb, like a soap bubble, slowly flew upward and illuminated the surroundings like the sun.

Did you twist the concept of transparent glass and light reflection?
‘So soap bubbles.’
Understanding went easy. I have no choice but to adjust it once. Because it looks like the Imperial Guard will be called.
“..This is lighting magic.”
“Yes. Try it now.”
The helmet rattled. The structure seems to be similar to mine.
“Yes? Suddenly? You know I don’t have mana.”
“It will work.”
This place has no gloves, it’s cold. It was a strange feeling to hold the transparent glass. It’s the second time I’ve caught it, but it’s so smooth that I don’t like it.
「..Merak?」
You have to go down to make money. He closed his eyes tightly and chanted a chant.
‘I won’t see her die again.’
I’m sorry. Wolf Ears. Demon kings are vicious, so I had no choice but to become stronger. I thought of an excuse in my head that even two mouths were not enough.
“Uh, huh?”
“As expected, that’s all right.”
Above Mardol’s head, the sphere of light I made is fluffy. I remembered. Although it was a very small air bubble,
..Success.
“Why is this happening? How the hell…?”
“Circuit, mine.”
The glass knight answered with a hum.
“Aha, since my veins are tangled, did Mardol implement the magic instead?”
“A stopgap.”
I was shocked. Is this possible by using a medium? Well, yesterday Nex forced my body open and used magic.

Dennis explained that mana can be refilled, so can’t this be done?
‘It might be possible to use magic.’
At the sudden question, I shouted out loud.
“If you draw and use a magic circle…!”
“No way.”
A resolute denial. Why Magic using the human body works, so why not? I wondered, forgetting that both hands were tightly held.
Maybe that’s it.
“In the end, the body.”
“You are saying that it is impossible until this constitution is fixed.. I understand.”
“Right. Smart.”
It’s been years since I’ve played the game, but the settings from the first game are the same. This doesn’t change, why did only the surrounding characters change?
I bowed my head in despair.
“Sorry..”
“No. Didn’t you teach me magic?”
“Wrong, no.”
“It is a story that I can’t write in the end.”
“Yeah..”
For the second time, he looks depressed.
“Not yet. Licht.”
Golden eyes glittered in his helmet. The more I look at it, the more I look like a saint. Is it golden because it’s the same wolf?
“Yes?”
“..Let’s exchange swordsmanship instead.”
The strength went out of my hand.
“I couldn’t teach you the shadow slash.”
“No, I told you.”
Oh, I don’t think this is a love story. Is it a fellow route? He bowed his head as if he was sorry for me. Wasn’t it a situation where the pink air current flowed enough?
‘He’s really nice, but…’
I wasn’t a bad person. I could have kept my mouth shut and pretended not to know. After all, he told me that Merak can be used.
“You can become stronger. Licht.”
Aha, you’re obsessed with my strength until the end. I almost saw him for a moment.
“..That’s right.”
It is only at times like this that the words become longer. I won’t be able to get my hands on this again, so let’s learn it. There was no harm done to me.
“Good.”
“Wolf Fang, I will tell you.”
Grancia Ryu. More than anything else, it was a reinterpretation of the movements of the 10 girls.
The glass knight sailed forward and rushed. There was the sound of a burst of air. Also very fast
“Like a wolf bites.”
“You move by leaving your body to your instincts. Is this a bit the opposite of my swordsmanship?”
“Smart.”
Equally, type 1 of swordsmanship, wolf’s fangs. On that day, I was taught a technique.
And then Mardol said to start practicing sparring right away.
“Aha, that’s why you wanted to give me something.”
“Right. Licht.”
My shadow just got cut a little bit. It’s Mary Sue’s character, after all. There was no direct attack, but the weapon in my hand made a ting and metallic sound.
“..You are a deceiver.”
“You too.”
The answer that came out after answering the question with Wolf Fang.
Later on, the Black Knight and the Glass Knight realized that both could learn the technique on their own.
In a world without phone number exchange.
The two knights shared swordsmanship that could be seen as traces of each other.
