Academy’s Genius Swordmaster Chapter 196

“Then I’ll take it as your consent. See you again.”

“huh. “Be careful.”

After completing his business, Ronan left the student council room. Adeshan saw him off with his signature friendly smile. thud. The sound of the door closing spread through the silence. As she looked at the pile of now useless documents, she muttered softly.

“travel.”

Adeshan sat there for a long time even after Ronan left. She still didn’t quite realize what had happened. travel. It’s a long-term trip that doesn’t end in just one day.

She quietly placed her hand on her left breast. She felt her heart beating faster than usual. Taking a deep breath, Adeshan flipped her hair, revealing her ears, which were as red as her apples.

‘What should I do…’

He must have been caught agitated. Her expression didn’t change, but she could hear her heart beating and her breathing becoming heavier. The distance wasn’t that far to begin with, and Ronan was very perceptive.

A lot of emotions were swirling in my head. First of all, I was embarrassed, and I also resented myself for not being able to hide my emotions well. She was also worried that she might seem like an easy woman for saying yes right away. If I were good at these things, I would have bounced at least once.

“···Ehehe.”

But apart from that, the corners of his mouth rose. I already tried to carefully suggest that we go out together this summer vacation, but I had no idea something like this would happen. She was in the middle of a laugh that seemed a little lacking. Suddenly, the door to the student council room burst open and a girl came in.

“Sister Adeshan!”

“Eh, Eri?!”

“I said I would come today, why are you so surprised? Hehe, I missed you.”

Adeshan shrugged his shoulders as if he had committed a sin. Ergé Bet ran to her like a puppy and hugged her tightly.

“Ha… this is it. “This wasn’t enough.”

Erzsebet muttered, pressing her face against Adeshan’s chest. Because it had a cat-like appearance, it looked more like an affectionate cat than a dog. Adeshan smiled and stroked her head.

“Eri too…”

“It’s true. “I’m very serious right now.”

Erzsebet answered without removing her face. What she needed most during her tiring life as a trainee at the Magic Tower was not a servant to do her tiresome chores or the praise of her proud wizards, but the embrace of Ade Shan to embrace her.

“Congratulations on completing the training. “How was the Dawn Magic Tower?”

“It was good. Should I say that I realized that the world is wide? Even the little girl from Grancia has become quite ladylike… and Aun Pillar is, of course, a genius in fire magic.”

Erzsebet raised her head in response to Adeshan’s question. There was a lot to talk about. She was about to tell him the surprising news that she had just received an offer from Topju to recruit her. Ade Shan’s face, somehow different from usual, caught her eye.

“…But why is your expression like that? “What’s going on?”

“Yes? Oh, no… there’s nothing like that.”

“lie. “It also has to do with Ronan, right?”

Adeshan sighed. Erzsebet chuckled and poked her cheek, as if she knew that would happen.

“I knew so.”

“Uh, how did you know?”

“That’s simple. “My sister only gets agitated when it comes to things related to him.”

Erzsebet answered with an expression as if she were asking something like that. There was only one person in Phileon who could distract the perfect student council president.

Suddenly, I felt a little annoyed because I thought it wasn’t me. she asked, narrowing her eyes.

“Then tell me now. “What did that villain do to torture my sister this time?”

“Ah, a villain… that’s right…”

“You care so much about me, but you don’t even know. I always come home hurt. “I heard they took care of me all day when I was brought in this time.”

Erzsebet grunted. Of course, she had a very positive view of Ronan, but her relationship with Adeshan was another matter. It must be said that she hates to see the god she worships disturbed. She hesitated, but then Adeshan opened her mouth.

“Well, so…”

Adeshan relayed the proposal he had heard from Ronan. Erzsebet’s eyes widened.

“oh my god. “Travel?”

“Ahaha… I can’t believe it.”

“Did you agree? No, of course I did. “What am I asking?”

Adeshan nodded his head weakly. Her white face had autumn leaves in it. Oh my goodness, it seems so true. Erzsebet, who was dumbfounded, said, clasping her hands together.

“sister. I really think this is an opportunity made in heaven. “We encourage them to confess first, and if they get really frustrated, we accuse them of shameful sins.”

He spoke quickly but seriously. The purple eyes were burning with a passion I had never seen before. Adeshan’s face heated up even more at the bold suggestion.

“Eh, Eri. “You’re attacking me…!”

“Or even if you can’t, you have to make him confess. “You can’t use that ability on people?”

Erzsebet said, pointing to Adeshan’s eyes. Her tone of voice and expression became harsh and it seemed like she was not the Eri she knew until now. Her Ade Shan’s lips twitched in embarrassment.

“I haven’t tried the experiment yet… Should I go that far?”

“Ha… sister. “I didn’t want to tell you this, but honestly, you need to feel a bit of a sense of crisis.”

“······Sense of crisis?”

“yes. “You can tell just by looking at the women around Ronan right now.”

Erzsebet nodded. It was shocking that he had to explain this to me, but he just brushed it off. If she wasn’t so oblivious, she would have already been dating Oh Sun-do-soon for two years.

“Well, if it’s a woman… what specifically?”

“There are many candidates, but what you need to be wary of are the people in your club. If it weren’t for senior Braum, I would have thought she was picking a member just by looking at her face. The only consolation is that Asher, who is reputed to be the most beautiful in the magic department, is a man? Of course, I think my sister is the prettiest, but…”

Erzsebet trailed off. Adeshan, who deduced the story without difficulty, took a deep breath. When I thought about it, the women around Ronan were all beautiful women who looked like they had come out of a fairy tale book. Marya, the vampire princess Ophelia, and even instructor Nabirose, who has been giving off a subtle vibe lately. She continued as she smoothed her chin.

“In my opinion, the most dangerous person is Marya. “She’s pretty and has a good body, but she’s also wealthy… and what’s more, the way people look at Ronan is unusual.”

“···Isn’t this unusual?”

“There is something like that. Would you say it’s like a wild beast stalking its prey? “What is certain is that I have more room to act boldly than my sister.”

The word bold had many meanings. Erzsebet further explained that Marya is in a similar position to Ronan’s childhood friend and the strategic advantage she can gain from that.

“The scariest thing is that it is flawless. If you see them at the club, the two are extremely close. Moreover, we cannot ignore the fact that Marya likes skinship.”

For a moment, Erzsebet recalled the time when she was participating in club activities with her. When she’s bored, he hugs her, saying she’s pretty like a doll, but I can’t help but admit that her destructive power is amazing.

“That’s how it encroaches on our daily lives. I use this as a window to dig into the reasons why friends are like each other. If we’re friends, how about holding hands? If we’re friends, how about a hug? In the end, on a night when there is thunder, I open the door and come in and sleep together as friends…”

“S-Stop it! Okay, I understand enough.”

Adeshan waved his hand to stop her. Her once red face turned pale again. It was a story with plenty of potential. Her breathing started to become heavy.

‘no.’

I suddenly felt like I had a headache. The sweet fantasy I had while making travel plans had already transformed into a sobbing scene while watching Ronan and Marya kiss from behind a tree. Just imagining it made her hands and feet tremble. A crying voice came out from her open mouth.

“Eh, Eri…what should I do? Well, that kind of thing…”

“It’s okay, sister. “Everything will be fine.”

“Thank you…”

“What.”

Erzsebet patted her on the back. It seemed like she was quite happy to see her getting so agitated just by imagining it. I’m also jealous. She muttered under her breath and smiled slightly.

“For me, as long as my sister is happy, that’s okay.”

It was a slightly bitter smile. The evening light seeping through the curtains illuminated the two people exquisitely. Somehow I had a feeling that a lot of things would happen this summer.

****

Time passed quickly. Since it was the end of spring when the late entrance ceremony was held, the vegetation soon turned completely green. The second summer vacation since coming to Phileon has already arrived.

“I missed this greenery. “I hope everyone has a fun and rewarding time.”

The school vacation ceremony ended with a short sermon from Kratir. The sound of cicadas pervading the sky was piercing my ears. After greeting his members, Ronan returned to the dormitory alongside Schlieffen.

“How on earth is summer coming so quickly?”

“Because the winter was that long. “The entrance ceremony was held late to begin with.”

“That makes sense. But aren’t you hot? “Not even a drop of sweat.”

“You control your sweat glands with mana. “It is one of the practices.”

“You crazy bastard.”

Ronan shook his head. No matter how helpful she was, she didn’t want to do that. When it was hot, fanning her hands and sweating profusely suited her better.

Perhaps because today was the school holiday, the students’ overall expressions were bright. The most excited were the freshmen who were on summer vacation less than three months after enrolling.

Even though the summer was so hot that the sound of cicadas was annoying, their faces were all cheerful. Ronan suddenly saw the freshmen playing ball under the scorching sun, and he bit his tongue and disgusted her.

“Isn’t it all gone? “How can they do that?”

“Because it’s the first summer in two years. “I must have missed you quite a bit.”

Surprisingly, Itargand was included among the ball players. His platinum-colored hair fluttered every time he dodged an opposing ball.

“Hey, get it there!”

“Do not command me.”

Itargand, who said so, received the ball. It was funny that his arrogant tone remained the same, but his actions were cooperative. Female students who appeared to be his followers were sitting on one side of the playground and screaming. Ronan laughed at the sight of him blending into human society much better than expected.

“That bastard gets along really well and plays well.”

“From what I heard, there are rumors that you are running to become the next student council president.”

“Well, that’s a good thing. “I think Navardose will like it too.”

Ronan chuckled. The two people walked while talking about various things and soon arrived at the dormitory building. Ronan said goodbye in advance to Schlieffen, who had to go up one more floor.

“Have a good vacation.”

“Of course. Are you going straight to the north?”

“ok. “It’s so hot, you have to be able to bear it.”

“Please come back. “I hope I don’t become weak due to lust for women.”

Schlieffen left those words and went up the stairs. Damn the look of women. Ronan, laughing as if he was dumbfounded, entered the room. A huge bag that looked like it could fit the size of Asher was placed in front of the front door.

‘Preparations are complete.’

It was travel luggage that Ronan had prepared in advance for the past two months. It was bulky because there was a lot of cold weather equipment. Ronan, remembering Ade Shan’s face, nodded his head.

‘I’m glad my senior agreed.’

Together with Adeshan, we would be of great help to each other. Actually, I wanted to take him with me more often, but after taking on the important role of student council president, it was very difficult to spend time with him.

I talked to him about wanting to take him to see a blacksmith shop, and I was glad we came to an agreement. Since the North is my senior’s hometown, he probably knows a lot of things I don’t know. I heard that my family’s memorial stone is located in the north, so I thought it would be a good idea to stop by on my way there.

“Let’s go soon.”

Ronan gathered his thoughts and carried his backpack. She had ordered Sita to protect her sister, so she did not accompany her this time. She could not ignore the possibility of her retaliation coming as it was the time of the massive purge of Nebula Clazier.

The meeting place was in front of the west gate of Phileon. I happened to come out a little early, so no one had come out yet.

“I guess this is enough.”

Ronan breathed in the warm air and nodded with satisfaction. Judging by the intensity of the sunlight hitting the skin, the snow and ice covering the northern part must have melted quite a bit.

He was in the middle of stretching, feeling good from the cool breeze. A familiar voice came from behind.

“Ronan.”

“Ahhhh, are you here?”

It was an earlier meeting than expected. Ronan turned her head. A tall lady was standing there carrying her backpack. His eyes were round.

“···Senior Adeshan?”

“Sorry. “I waited a long time.”

Adeshan said. She tried to say no, but couldn’t think of anything to say. Her waist-length black hair was blowing in the wind. Ronan’s thoughts stopped for a moment.

‘This isn’t really a joke.’

This was not the Adeshan I saw a month ago. It didn’t seem like anything was planned, but the person looked different. Her face, which had been haggard from heavy work, had regained its elasticity, and her hair was as fine as silk. Her closed lips were shining a light red color reminiscent of coral, as if she had lightly applied something.

To put it simply, she just became prettier. Ronan, who had been dumbfounded, belatedly opened her mouth.

“Uh, no. “I just arrived too.”

“thank god. “Then shall we go?”

She brushed her hair behind her ear and smiled softly. It was an adult smile that he practiced following Eri’s advice to show off the charms of older people. Of course, her heart was beating as if it would burst out of her chest at any moment. Ronan, who heard her words, shook his head.

“Oh, wait a minute. “There are still people left to come.”

“······comer?”

Adeshan tilted his head. Aren’t the two of you going? It was a time when anxiety, stemming from intuition, was creeping up on me. Something leapt from behind and hung on Ronan’s neck.

“yap!”

“Gagging!”

Ronan was staggered by the unexpected surprise attack. Adeshan’s eyes widened. A girl with her blonde hair pulled back was clinging to Ronan and giggling.

The sparkling blue-green eyes and assertive body caught my eye. Marya said, ruffling Ronan’s hair.

“I came at the exact right time, but you came first? “I really like keeping promises on time.”

Because of the huge height difference, the girl’s feet were floating off the floor. Ronan frowned at her and tapped her arm.

“Yumma. “It’s heavy, so go down.”

“Hey, what kind of thing does a man get into trouble with?”

“Don’t you think about the weight of the backpack? And now you’ve become a mass of muscle and you’re really heavy.”

“Ahaha, that sounds nice.”

Ronan shook his upper body back and forth, but Marya did not easily loosen her arms. Adeshan, who was watching the cruel scene, bit his lower lip. His gray gaze was fixed on Marya’s breasts pressed against Ronan’s back. Unable to contain herself, she opened her mouth.

“Uh, over there…”

“Oh, hello Adeshan!”

That was before Adeshan could say anything. Her eyes met, and Marja released her arms from Ronan’s neck and came running. As she stood facing Ade Shan, she lowered her head and said.

“I’m so glad we can go together this time. Please take care of me!”

“···Yes. Please take care of me too.”

There was nothing to say when it came out so clearly. Adeshan smiled awkwardly. The corners of her mouth were quivering, a far cry from the smile of an adult. Ronan, who was watching the two women, smiled in satisfaction.

‘We get along well. ‘It’s a good thing.’
