Chapter 25. Taking care of the snowflakes to bloom. (3)
“ask?”
Leah widened her eyes in surprise.
“Why don’t you like it?”
“It’s not like that.”
Leah’s head tilted to the side.
“Abel, I don’t know what favor you can ask me.”
“I can’t talk right now. And it’s not dangerous.”
In some ways, it may be a dangerous thing. There was no need to reveal that fact now.
“Okay, then.”
Surprisingly, Leah readily accepted my offer.
“I do my best within my power.”
“I promised.”
Let’s grin and stick out our little finger,
“…….”
Leah stared at my hands.
“What are you doing? You don’t even put your finger on it.”
“……okay.”
Leah raised her hand with a very unfamiliar expression. I secretly laughed when I saw the pattern clearly marked on the back of her hand.
Kuuk.
Their little fingers were strongly intertwined.
“No need to say anything else later.”
“I keep what I say.”
Leah spoke in a confident tone and removed her hand.
“by the way…….”
Leah’s eyes shone coldly.
“Did you say you were still going to beat me?”
The quiet voice suddenly falls,
Charang!
With a cheerful sound, a bluish sword emerged from both of Leia’s hands.
“Hoo.”
He whistled and looked at Aria, who was holding Leah’s hand.
A blade as thin as Requiem, but shorter than Requiem. A cool breeze swirled around the smooth surface, as if it had been carved from ice.
“That’s Aria.”
Leah, standing with Aria in both hands, looked different from what I remembered from the original.
A much colder and more emotionless face than now. Only cold life shines above the lifeless eyes.
Leah risks her life to rush to Abel.
The moment that image overlaps with the current Leah,
“What do you think? Do you still feel the same way?”
Leah asked with a lively voice. Then, Leah’s appearance in the original was completely broken and scattered.
Only then was I able to escape from the memories of the past.
“of course.”
He smiled and pointed to Leah’s arm.
“There are a lot of weaknesses in your posture. Bring your sword closer to your body and use one hand like a shield.”
Leah thought for a moment and changed her posture as I said.
“……It’s really comfortable. How did you know?”
“You just know it when you see it.”
That’s how you used the sword in the original. Of course, after I became completely familiar with Aria, I used it a little differently.
“It’s awkward because it’s my first time using it.”
Leah muttered, swinging Aria around.
“But it’s very light. I think you’ll get used to it quickly.”
“I guess so. I see you’re good at pulling out a sword, right?”
“I often bring it up when I’m alone.”
As I watched Leah wrestling with Aria, I fell in love with it.
A girl born and raised in the winter sword and the winter territory. Is there a better combination than this?
Then I met Leah’s sparkling eyes,
Whoop!
I had to avoid Aria, who suddenly attacked me.
“what are you doing?”
He stepped to the side and asked awkwardly.
“You’re avoiding this. Your body is really flying.”
Leah watched my movements with an admiring look on her face.
“I deliberately attacked you while you were thinking about something else.”
“It’s a good strategy, but it doesn’t work for me.”
“Really? Then let’s go head-on.”
Leah grinned and ran straight towards me.
Crack!
Platinum-colored hair flutters, and a blue shining sword flies along its path.

He immediately drew his sword and confronted Leah.
Kak!
The moment Aria and my sword collide,
Fasth!
A blue light rose from the place where they touched.
“Hoo.”
I can’t believe I’ve already brought out Aria’s power. Even though it was my first time using it, it was a great result.
‘Let’s play a little bit.’
At the same time, my body was starting to itch too.
There was a need to teach Leah, who was not yet familiar with the dual swords. The more proficient she becomes in using Aria, the more reliable she will be.
“Are you going to do it?”
Leah asked in a spirited voice. Her face was already full of vitality and winning spirit.
“You started first.”
I corrected my posture and fought back.
“I heard you won’t do it anytime soon?”
“You just have to do it in moderation.”
“Hoo, is this something you can do while watching? Is it possible?”
Sparks flew from each other’s eyes. The moment the air surrounding you shrinks from tension, crack!
The two bodies jumped out at the same time.
Just by crossing swords with me once, Leah realized that she could not defeat me with force.
“Ha!”
So, I lowered my posture and tried to target my vulnerabilities.
“Where!”
He immediately dodged Aria, who was flying towards the bridge, and then stabbed Leah.
Kang!
Leah immediately blocked my sword with her other hand.
‘Use one hand like a shield.’
How can you apply what you just said directly into practice? Indeed, he was a student worth teaching.
“after.”
Leah straightened her disheveled posture for a moment, then immediately counterattacked with her right hand, which she often used.
Kagak!
He blocked Leah’s sword and immediately lowered the sword. It was an attack aimed at Leah, who was lowering his stance.
“-!”
After a moment of panic, Leah immediately raised her other arm to defend my sword.
The moment Aria’s two blades crossed in an X shape,
Awesome!
A dazzling blue light burst from Aria. At the same time, the energy of ice poured towards me.
“hmm.”
Instead of panicking, he stepped back and calmly waved his sword. When the air flow was broken, the aimless cold dissipated fleetingly.
“omg…….”
Leah looked at Aria in her hand and then at me with her mouth open.
“Just…what, what happened?”
I suppressed my laughter when I saw that.
‘Anyway, what is the original official genius?’
Even without anyone’s explanation, he instinctively understands and uses the sword.
Crossing two arias was one of the techniques to bring out the true power of an aria.
“It would be a good idea to practice that skill more.”
Leah blinked and asked in a heated voice.
“No, by the way. What did you do?”
“not a big deal.”
He waved his sword and answered calmly.
“It disrupts the air and hinders the path.”
“Air, what?”
Leah blinked even faster as if she didn’t understand.
“Is that okay? No, this is my first time seeing Aria’s power.”
“You just know it when you see it.”
“her…….”
Leah kept sticking her tongue out and looking at me as if she was fed up.
“You say such nonsense so confidently….”
Actually, I didn’t even know that this method would be successful.
This is the technique that Abel used when dealing with Leah in the original work, and easily neutralized Leah.
‘This is it.’
They say that vaguely knowing with your head and doing with your body are different, but I was surprised that I succeeded more easily than I thought.
Well, Cain doesn’t need to use such little tricks.
Cadenza’s power is the opposite of Aria’s, so you can easily shake off the cold just by swinging it.
Feeling that I was getting upset for no reason, I waved my hand at Leah.
“Let’s try again. Come.”
“…….”
Leah bit her lip and examined me more carefully than before. Her eyes were measuring where and how to attack.
“after.”
After catching my breath,
Pot!
Leah lunged at me again. I thought he might cross Aria and attack her.
Surprisingly, Leia gave off chills with just one aria.
Crispy!
A cold air that seemed to freeze every single strand of downy hair stretched out in a straight line.
‘Amazing.’
From her previous experience, Leah seemed to have roughly grasped the sense of writing an aria.
‘Actually, there was no need to teach you, right?’
While leisurely thinking about this, I raised my sword at an angle.
bang!
After blocking Aria’s cold energy with the blade, she twisted her wrist to throw it away. Her ice crystals bounced in the opposite direction from which they came.
“……Tch!”
Leah clicked her tongue lowly and leaned closer to me. Even though her conversion attack failed, she did not miss her opportunity and immediately prepared for the next one.
“Where is this-”
“Leah!”
Stand tall.
Leia stopped in place, unable to make her next attack.
“……father.”
Because Mikel was glaring at us with his eyes shining brightly.
“What are you doing now? Can’t you stand it anymore and draw your sword?”
Listening to Mikel’s angry shout, I snorted inwardly.
‘I was quietly watching, but now I can’t say anything else.’
He had been observing our fight for a while. I don’t think Leah noticed because she was so focused on me.
“…….”
Leah quietly put Aria in with a dissatisfied look on her face.
Jerk, jerk.
Mikel came walking uncomfortably, using crutches.
Glancing at his bandaged leg, I thought of my lieutenant.
‘Conrad this guy… … .’
Before chasing after Leah, I left a note for him.
[Stay by Mikel’s side. If he tries to do something dangerous, stop him by any means necessary.]
Indeed, he was capable.
As Mikel showed signs of rushing into the blizzard,
thud!
The carriage was knocked over. Mikel, who was crushed there, ended up limping like that.
‘I adjusted the angle well so that you only hurt your leg, haha.’
When I thought of Conrad, who was laughing heartily, I burst into laughter.
“How many people have suffered because of you, so how can you wield Aria like that?”
A stern reprimand came from Mikel.
“Even now, people are talking about whether I sent you in advance and captured the subjugation team on purpose.”
“That is absolutely ridiculous.”
Leah said clearly.
“Because my father, more than anyone else, was the one who didn’t want me to hold Aria.”
“…….”
“Why do you listen to those words?”
Leah’s clenched voice continued.
“They’re just angry because they couldn’t get Aria. Regardless of whether it’s true or not, they’ll talk about it to their advantage.”
“You can’t ignore public opinion. How can you silence them all?”
When there were signs that the fight between the two was going to get longer,
“wait a minute.”
I blocked the space between the two people.
“Prince Abel.”
Mikel looked at me with betrayal in his eyes.
“How can you do this? Instead of stopping Leah, you are encouraging her even more.”
“I know only one thing, but I don’t know the other.”
He said without hesitation despite Mikel’s glare.
“Now that Leah is Arya’s master, hiding it or concealing it will only make the situation worse.”
Mikel and Leah’s bodies trembled.
“What does that mean?”
“Wouldn’t you know it if you looked at Prince Cain?”
After a brief rebuttal, Mikel frowned as if he understood everything.
“If Leah doesn’t handle Arya well, the complaints coming in now won’t even matter.”
“…….”
“It is better to master the sword perfectly and show that you are a true master.”
He spoke in a lower voice, almost like a whisper.
“If you don’t, you will constantly be suspected and tested.”
If a sword with surprisingly strong power was held in the hands of a mere girl, people were bound to feel uneasy.
I thought maybe I could defeat that guy and become the master of the sword.
It was a future with ample potential. Unless Mikel continues to acknowledge Leah.
“…….”
Mikel just remained silent. His deeply distorted eyebrows represented his state of mind.
“Well then, what should I do?”
Finally, Mikel opened his mouth.
“Prince Abel is right. I don’t want Leah to get hurt.”
Thinking of Carlo, who must have been in an ecstatic dream, I answered in a serious tone.
“Make Leah the successor to the Concellare family.”
“……!”
Leah was startled and looked back at me. Mikel just raised his eyebrows and waited for me to speak.
“And announce to the world that Leah has become Arya’s master.”
He continued speaking in a calm yet firm voice.
“No one will dare challenge the only heir to the Concellare family and the master of Aria.”
“…….”
“Now you have to accept it.”
Finally, it ended powerfully, as if driving a wedge.
“That Leah deserves it.”
