Sword Emperor Reincarnated as a Sword Master Chapter 79

Geomje reincarnated as a swordsmith (79)

Galano was surprisingly quickly registered as an official member of the ‘Aquamarine’ adventure group in Bermuda.

With his skills and experience, he was at the top of Grade B, and even if his evaluation was just a little higher, he would have been Grade A. Not only was it not enough that he suddenly joined Aquamarine, but people were also buzzing when they saw that his sloppy demeanor had changed into a neater look.

It had to be that way.

The face of a middle-aged man with his shaggy hair trimmed and his beard shaved off looked a lot like his older brother Dentuso.

―Dentusora from ‘Storm’! What a nostalgic name.

-Aquamarine at that time was truly amazing. We explored all the ‘cracks’ in Sea Area 5, and eventually even ‘Charybdis’ was sealed.

―So you are also Njord’s blood relatives? Director Francis, he is a person who should not be underestimated.

The atmosphere that implicitly tabooed aquamarine and its golden age was lifted, and the adventurers of Bermuda enjoyed a drink while looking back on the past that had not even passed 10 years ago.

-If you think about it, there was no adventure group that worked harder than Aquamarine. No, not even now. Most of the so-called A-grade guys are making safe money in small-scale , right? What kind of adventure or exploration is that?

-Uh-huh! You guys, you’re going a little too far with your words. Be careful in Bermuda. Because you might get into a fight with those guys for no reason.

―They are so well-off that they never come down from Aiolos Hall. Do we really need to be that careful? It’s not like I said anything wrong!

The high-ranking people of the United Council and Bermuda may not know it, but the anger and public opinion of adventurers that had been building up for a long time from the bottom was gathering around Aquamarine, which had once fallen to the bottom.

Legends who have no blemish about trampling and ignoring others while working as the best adventurers in Atlantis.

When they were active, there was no such thing as halls discriminating among adventurers by class. This was because Leader Njord believed that the duty and virtue of an adventurer was ‘freedom.’

From veterans who can look back on that period to adventurers who grew up listening to the legendary adventure stories from childhood.

Everyone was unanimously looking forward to the revival of Aquamarine.

* * *

After completing Galano’s registration process, general manager Francis returned to Aquamarine and declared in front of everyone.

“This is Mr. Galano, who has become our Aquamarine colleague from today! It’s my 14th year of experience, so I think there’s a lot I can learn as an adventurer! Now, everyone applaud welcome!”

“Waaah! welcome!”

“Wow.”

“hmm.”

Vivian was the only one to clap her hands together and cheer, while her older sister, Ninian, opened and closed her mouth expressionlessly.

Leonard also only clapped a few times to keep Francis from feeling embarrassed.

Only Marian said hello to Galano, whom she had not seen in a long time.

“Galano, do you remember me?”

“of course. “I didn’t know that the tomboy from back then would grow into such a strong and faithful woman.”

Marian couldn’t even hide her embarrassment at the words that brought back old memories.

If Njord had not persuaded her at that time, she might have gone on a rampage without knowing how scary the world was and died miserably.

‘Mad dog’.

Some people may be afraid of that nickname and keep their distance, but the truly strong don’t even snort. Not being able to tell who to bite and who not to bite was not a boast, but a shame.

“My brother talked about you once.”

Marian’s ears perked up at Dentuso’s story.

“He is a stubborn person who cannot compromise, but once he makes up his mind, he is more trustworthy than anyone else. “In the end, seeing as you were able to protect Francis’ safety until the very end, you were right.”

“Wow, that’s too much praise.”

“As an adventurer, I may be your senior, but on this ship, you are my senior member. “Lead me mercilessly.”

Galano used his experience and connections to accept Marian’s rank by acknowledging her contributions without infringing on the hierarchy.

Even Marian, who had a difficult time with him knowingly or unknowingly, was able to relax due to his polite attitude.

Leonard, who was watching them, just nodded his head.

‘He doesn’t have any experience working in an adventure group, but he knows how to behave like a veteran. ‘Do you think there is also respect for Marianne’s contribution to protecting Francis while he himself was on the rocks?’

In the end, it all turned out well.

Francis came up to Leonard, who was thinking about how to teach Ninian, Marian, and Galano.

“This makes five people. “I never thought Leonard could inspire Uncle Galano, but he always exceeds my expectations.”

“Because he’s a genius.”

“Ahahaha! Are you saying that with your own mouth?”

“It’s actually my ability, but it’s even more disgraceful to be humble and say it’s not that big of a deal. “You could say I was lucky.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Leonard has enormous experience and insight, and Francis is good at reading people with his wisdom and intuition.

Therefore, it was inevitable that the rejection of those who were different from each other would be more severe than others.

Even if he said it sincerely, it was the same. It’s not like making fun of the other person for not being lucky.

“Leonard, who should I recruit next?”

“I don’t know who it is.”

He answered the question Francis asked.

“I understand that you may need to bring a wizard.”

“oh?”

Francis said with his eyes wide open.

“I guess you learned well from Esther? It’s just as it says! Advanced Wind Elementalists are great, but Wizards have the power to respond to literally any situation. “For an A-level adventure group, a level 5 or higher wizard is essential.”

Leonard closed and opened his eyes as if agreeing with him.

Wizard (魔法師).

He lived in the Atlantis Magic Tower for several weeks and experienced more than hundreds of magic firsthand. Starting with elemental magic, an attribute that can be measured through the five elements, the true nature of magic that plays with the laws of physics itself was no different from the magic of old tales.

Starting from the 5th level, magicians who are introduced to higher-level concepts begin to jump through space, accelerate time, and create strange phenomena that cannot be explained by the laws of physics.

Even Esther, who had just ascended to the 5th rank, was like that, and the magic shown by the 7th rank Jack Russell was to the point where I couldn’t understand why it was manifested like that even though it was viewed as a top battle.

‘I need to study more about concepts I don’t know much about, such as gravity. Otherwise, you wouldn’t even know if your nose was cut off right in front of your eyes.’

If possible, it would be nice to have someone who can talk openly, like Esther or a Jack Russell, join the team.

That was Leonard’s only wish.

As if reading his inner thoughts, Francis hummed and softly curved his lips, looking smug.

“Leonard brought three people, but if the adventure leader couldn’t bring even one person, wouldn’t he lose face? So, I invited a 6th rank wizard!”

“Hoo.”

He was a magician of the 6th rank who could be treated as an elder even within the magic tower, and was considered the highest rank in .

If Esther wasn’t enough, did other wizards also have ties?

Leonard waited for her to speak with deep admiration.

however.

“hmm?”

Francis, who had a mental connection with Aquamarine, a ship made through magic engineering, tilted his head.

Someone was asking for permission to enter in front of the ship.

Anyone who has visited Aquamarine even once will know their personal information immediately. One person was Esther, and the identity of the other person was unknown.

‘If I had accompanied Esther, I wouldn’t be an enemy… Who is it?’

Francis, unable to hide his bewildered expression, went up to the deck with the members.

and.

“… … .”

Francis’ mouth and eyes turned round as he faced Esther and the Jack Russell. Because my brain was so fast, I ended up guessing everything about the two people.

Esther, seeing her expression, smiled bitterly and said.

“I’m sorry for coming on so suddenly, Fran. “Master suddenly asked me to come visit Aquamarine with him.”

No sooner had she finished speaking than the Jack Russell came forward and made eye contact with Frances.

The chief elder of the Atlantis Magic Tower.

A 7th rank archmage.

From his skills to his position, he was someone that Aquamarine could not yet match. Francis did not avoid his gaze even though he knew how dangerous and powerful the man standing in front of him was.

“Are you Njord’s daughter? “I’m sure I’ve seen her face before, but this is my first time talking to her.”

“I have heard many stories from Esther, Chief Elder Jack Russell.”

“If I were to say what I heard from that idiot, it would be insignificant. Call me Russell. “She had some kind of relationship with your father, and she knew Heine well.”

After the two people disappeared, I thought that my connection with Francis had been lost, but I had no idea that my relationship with the disciple who left home and came back only to be scolded would lead me to encounter them again.

Russell gave Leonard a quick glance and continued speaking.

“I’m sure you can guess why me and my student came to visit, right?”

“Yes, I don’t know why yet.”

Francis suppressed the urge to cheer, but his eyes sparkled as he was curious about the reason.

The Jack Russell responded by habitually pushing up the frames of his glasses.

“I guess it can be broadly summarized into two things.”

One reason was that the materials to be supplied in were either too biased or absolutely insufficient in quantity.

The rumor that A-class adventurers these days were only looking for easy-to-attack and simple was true. Therefore, in the case of , where the difficulty of targeting was high and the price of by-products was somewhat low, there were many cases that were not explored even once every few months.

Since the Aquamarine Adventure Team would not follow the same steps as them, they would be able to gather the necessary materials more easily and quickly.

“… “If the Magic Tower is saying that much, the current situation must be more serious than I thought.”

Francis’ complexion darkened when he heard that story.

“Well, I guess so. “To the extent that the information concealed in ‘Bermuda’ is leaking out like this, it would not be surprising if foreshadows of the demonic revolution have already appeared several times in Aeolus.”

Jack Russell agreed and cited the second reason.

It was none other than Leonard.

Is it you again? Francis looked back with a look on his face and saw Leonard avoiding his gaze.

“At first, I thought I would just send my poor student along, but wouldn’t it be obvious that he would be the only one to come out and brag about me? “The research progress was already going on without him, so I came to accompany Aquamarine for a change of pace.”

“ah! “So you want guest status?”

“Being a full-time member is difficult in many ways for me. It must be a huge burden for you too. “Because you might end up getting labeled as being associated with the Magic Tower.”

Unlike regular members, who had to share their fate with the adventure group until the end of their employment contract, guest members were relatively free.

Even if you are the leader of an adventure group, you cannot give orders arbitrarily, and you can leave the ship and the adventure group at any time.

So we always had to be careful when accepting guests.

Since there were many cases where the other party was superior in terms of skill and status, if you got caught wrongly, you were in trouble. You could have treated them with the utmost respect, as if you were a master, and received nothing in return.

Nevertheless, Francis had no hesitation at all.

“great! Take care, Russell!”

“… “We haven’t even discussed the terms of the contract properly yet?”

Even the Jack Russell asked back with a puzzled look on his face.

“This is an opportunity to attract a 7th rank archmage to the ship, so providing a few conveniences is no problem!”

“Hoo? “My demands may be quite excessive?”

“According to what I heard from Esther, it can’t be like that!”

Russell, who looked next to me in response to Francis’ immediate reply, growled.

“Disciple, why don’t you go inside the boat and take a look at me? “I need to know what on earth you were talking about.”

“Ugh!”

Francis laughed out loud as the two people bickered.

It was a very happy miscalculation.

It was then.

“… … Hey, hey… ?”

A small, thin voice came from somewhere, as if it had crawled into a rat hole.

“huh?”

“what.”

“Who is it?”

When the members of Aquamarine turned to look in that direction, the person who had been glancing with his head out hid behind the pillar again.

Only Francis, who recognized his identity, waved his hand and shouted.

“Come up! “You didn’t come to the wrong place!”

Only after hearing her voice did the shadow leave the pillar and walk cautiously onto the deck of the ship.

Golden hair that is as fine and shiny as gold dust.

The two eyes were quivering like those of a deer, giving the impression that they looked both weak and neat. Only her plain robes and her wand, which she held tightly in both hands, revealed that she was a wizard.

Francis held onto her hand as she kept retreating and brought her up to face him.

“This is Lorelai, the 6th rank wizard I invited!”

There was someone who reacted to that name before anyone else.

“… Lorelai, you say?”

Jack Russell, the archmage of the 7th rank, soon remembered the source of the name he had heard somewhere.

Russell asked a question, his eyes wide for the first time.

“Could it be Heine’s successor?”

Only then did the rest of Aquamarine’s eyes widen, just like Russell.
