I Became an Academy Genius Swordsman

Episode 48

One

Time passed and it was the weekend.

It’s not a weekend off, but today is a particularly busy day.

After going to Jimin’s private training room, I had to go to Ahn So-yul – Andersen – in the university building. We are receiving daily reports on the integration of Gwanak-gu manpower centers, and we plan to finish this weekend.

Siwoo was waiting for Jimin at the main gate of the academy.

“Why aren’t you coming?”

There is only one minute left for the appointment, but she is nowhere to be seen. It may be a bit late, but… … Yoo Ji-min?

Then a message arrived on my smartphone.

[As soon as it’s 09:00, run to the place where you ate with Dad before. I was tailed.]

“?”

suddenly tailgating? To me?

It’s so out of the blue, but it just turned 09:00. Jimin isn’t the type to lie… Siwoo, as she said, quickly moved to the place where he ate before and found a familiar limousine.

As Siwoo approached, the limousine door opened automatically, and he slipped inside.

“sorry. great job.”

“No, but what’s the sudden tailing?”

“just… … The flies are twisted. Driver, please leave.”

Boooung-

Siu tilted her head, but didn’t ask because she didn’t think she would answer further. Jimin looked out the window and bit his chin.

One corner of her mouth went up, but she couldn’t see Siwoo, who was buried in the softness of the limousine chair.

“Where are you going to catch up here?”

After the limousine left, a girl arrived late.

“… … How did you notice?”

Yoo-jung glared at the limousine leaving.

Siwoo, who arrived at the private training room, let out a blank sound.

“… … It’s a private training room… Was it in your house?”

“huh.”

Seeing her answer as if it were natural, Siwoo was at a loss for words.

‘No, it’s a ‘private’ training room, so it’s not strange to be at home… .’

Ordinary people do not have private training rooms. It is common to rent training rooms from professional organizations, so Siu thought of the training rooms at the academy.

I didn’t know it would be like a remote island in a family home—a mansion too big to be called—with all the training rooms clustered together.

Suddenly, a feeling of uneasiness ran down his spine.

“if… … The swordsman uncle… .”

“doesn’t exist. Dad is busy on the weekends too.”

“Ah, is it?”

Shiu’s tone brightened slightly.

In contrast, Jimin’s tone darkened.

“There are other ‘humans’.”

Siu hesitated. There is only one person Jimin calls ‘human’.

… The person who was reborn as a siscon by transforming Yukang’s daughter-in-law’s tendency to be a idiot is here?

“Uh, let’s go to the private training room.”

“huh? as soon as?”

“uh. Gotta do it quickly.”

“… You can have some.”

“I have work to do.”

“… okay.”

Come on, quick! It was Siwoo who quietly hurried his steps. Unlike Yoo Kang, Yu Ji Hyuk is attending the academy, so he can come to him if he wants.

Everyday meeting with Siscon oppa? If the crush stack accumulates every time you meet, Siwoo doesn’t know when the plum sword will be drawn.

For him and Siwoo himself, it is better to avoid wrong meetings.

Fortunately, I arrived safely at the private training room.

“phew.”

“You sweat.”

From nob le mt l dot com

No. Sweat that moved? This is why there is no need for unnecessary human relationships. I was just imagining it, but I was sweating.

Siwoo was about to wipe it clean, but Jimin grabbed his arm.

“Cleaning like that is bad for your skin.”

She took out a handkerchief from her bosom and patted it on Siu’s forehead.

‘Was he originally this kind?’

I think it was similar when I built up a certain liking.

After wiping off the sweat, Siwoo took out the seolsam.

“Can I eat it?”

Jimin looked at Siu like that and said softly.

“Are you busy today?”

It is correct to say that he was impatient because he was worried that someone would come, but Siu did not bother to correct it.

“Um, a little.”

“so. I can’t help it. Sit in the middle.”

Jimin pointed to the round circle in the middle of the training room.

Siwoo got the feeling that her mood had subtly changed.

‘It must be an illusion.’

passed unnoticed. In the first place, the purpose of the visit was to help her take seolsam, and she said that she would go quickly after that, but there was nothing to regret or regret.

“Can I eat right away?”

“huh. Unlike what it looks like, it will melt like sugar water as soon as you put it in your mouth. You can’t open your mouth in surprise. You can’t even open your eyes.”

“okay.”

“From the moment you put it in and close your mouth, you have to keep doing it. You can’t stop.”

“okay. I’ll start.”

While sitting cross-legged, Siwoo swallowed Seolsam and used his energy. Jimin stood behind him and put his hand on his shoulder.

thud-

the sound of something falling. Siwoo noticed that this was the vibration created by Seolsam’s energy striking the veins throughout his body.

Seolsam’s absorption was faster than Siwoo’s imagination. I desperately understood why he said he shouldn’t open his mouth. The faster it absorbs, the faster it disappears. If you don’t turn the energy into the veins with cloud energy, it will quickly pass out of the skin.

Siwoo tried to quickly catch the energy of Seolsam, which was about to scatter, by using the simbeom of the wind. However, through steady efforts, Siwoo learned a trick in the realm of luck, but Seolsam’s energy was strong.

Jimin’s energy coming through his shoulder was helpful. If Siwoo tried to capture energy from inside his body through luck, Jimin turned his energy to the side closer to the skin and set up a barricade to prevent Seolsam’s energy from escaping.

Siwoo believed in Jimin and focused on what he could do. Concentration soon led to trance. I saw an image I had seen before.

The white sun, the gray sky, the white snowfield, the plum blossoms blooming on the sheer cliffs, the ice clusters… … .

However, if there was a difference, it was a snowstorm. It is not known whether this is due to the influence of the wild wind simbeop or the change due to the rise of the realm.

However, imagery is the inner world in which nature is imaged. Every background has a meaning, and this change is also Siwoo’s own.

The backgrounds were unknown before, but today they had a meaning that came to mind suddenly. Of course, not all of them, but just one plum tree that bloomed on the steep cliff over there.

Plum blossoms blooming even on a cliff signify overcoming and growing.

The words life, struggle, and indomitability also fit very well.

The important thing is that he never gives up and never gives up despite countless trials. Giving up means death, so it is in line with Siwoo, who has no choice but to die in a world that is scheduled to be destroyed if he does not advance.

thud-

The plum blossoms on the cliff, the moment he realized the meaning, a great resonance spread around Siwoo. Wind and snow blew around him, creating a small blizzard that began to cling to his body.

Shocked, Jimin removed his hand and stepped back.

The eyes wrapped around Siu and soon turned into round eggs, completely hiding Siu.

“ah… … .”

Jimin made a dumb noise. Inside her, there is a chaotic situation as if there is a thunderstorm. I was directly witnessing the moment of rising to a level that I had only heard about in words.

Even more surprising is the sight. The rise of the realm usually reflects the image. Since images are related to the person’s history, they may be similar, but they cannot be the same.

However, Siwoo’s current appearance is like… .

“I think my dad was like this too… .”

It is too similar to the scene of Yoo Kang’s rise to the realm that is still floating around the Internet. Although there is an incomparable difference in scale… .

Jimin instinctively took out his smartphone and started filming this scene.

Soon, the wind died down. The snow that covered him fell away, revealing his figure.

Aside from his slightly longer hair, he didn’t change much in appearance, but a snowstorm was blowing around him.

The white line created by the snow wind looked like a ring made of satellites orbiting Saturn.

“Strength… … !”

Jimin was shocked.

The absolute realm where the superhumans, who are said to have crossed the wall, bring out their images to the outside and make the area their own territory.

The starting point of the absolute domain is that stronghold. Because part of the world of imagery came out through the elevation of the realm.

It’s not that you can use it just because your military power is strong, or because your realm is high. Jimin, whose father is a sword master, is well aware of that fact.

Siwoo stared blankly at the spinning river, then waved his hand and the river disappeared. He brushed the snow off his shoulders and looked back at Jimin.

“Thank you. thanks.”

Siwoo clenched and opened his fists. I saw the movement of the flag and also tried to hold the plum sword. Something is definitely different. Whether it’s strength or energy. Most of them have greatly increased their abilities.

He compared his level. Chun Kang-min is not yet ready, and he seems to be able to deal with even a district chief level devil worshiper.

“hehehehe.”

I can’t stand the laughter that leaks out.

It took a while to split the room, and when Jimin came out of the car, he caught all the expressions. She said while handing her a cup of hot tea.

“congratulations.”

“thanks.”

he drank the tea When I put my mouth on the teacup, a small frost formed, but it was still difficult to control the force.

However, I quickly got used to it. It’ll probably be fine after a few hours.

“Would you like some clothes?”

“no, that’s fine.”

The clothes were a little damp because the frost had repeatedly formed and then disappeared. Jimin, who saw that, showed a favor, but Siu didn’t want to change clothes in someone else’s house.

Actually, I am grateful for her help and kindness, but I feel uncomfortable. living room? I’m drinking tea in a huge space that seems more appropriate to call it a lobby, but I’m always in a state of tension because I don’t know when I’ll run into Yoo Ji-hyeok.

If it hadn’t been for Yu Ji-min’s round, curious eyes, I would have left quickly.

Can not help it.

“Can you show me how strong you are?”

Siwoo intends to give her request as soon as possible. I said earlier that there was work behind me, so even if it’s regrettable, I won’t catch it.

It’s not like I was caught in the first place or something… .

Siwoo activated the force.

Snowflakes formed in the air and began to orbit around him, creating a white belt.

“Oh wow… … .”

Jimin’s eyes twinkle. I almost laughed at the unexpected appearance.

She went on and on.

“How is your image? is it space? is it a concept? Or nothing?”

“It is space. There are cliffs, flowers, and wind blowing in the snowy field.”

“Similar to me. I am also a snowman. Instead, it is night and there is a full moon.”

After answering this and that, the conversation got longer, and Siu, who wanted to be at this point, got up from his seat.

“I guess I have to go now.”

“ah… … okay. you help me next time Do you remember what I did earlier?”

“That’s not difficult.”

Siwoo answered shyly.

There was no need for her to ask Siwoo. He should be right next to someone who is proud of being the best in the world when it comes to energy management.

“Your dad is there. Why am I less important than that?”

“… Do you hate it?”

“No, not that.”

“Then I decided to help.”

“okay.”

If you ask for help, I will help you. Siu didn’t ask any more.

Siwoo left the mansion, and Jimin followed to see him off.

He opened the door of the great mansion

“Yoo Ji-min?”

I met Yoo Ji-hyeok exactly.

‘Why are you out there… It’s not natural.’

While Siwoo was at a loss for words due to the sudden encounter, words were exchanged quickly.

“who?”

“friend.”

Jimin didn’t even meet his eyes and said that.

“Move.”

“What kind of friend are you?”

“What do you care?”

“What is your habit of talking to my brother?”

“… go away.”

However, Jimin coldly glared at Jihyeok and passed it by. Siwoo tried to lower his head briefly, but he couldn’t because she was dragging him by the wrist.

Siu watched. The moment she grabbed Siwoo’s wrist, his eyebrows squirmed.

‘Patience.’

You can’t buy the rage of the Siscons. Because the influence he has on the academy as a whole is significant. Siu applied the brakes and released his arm.

“Can I say hello? what’s the matter.”

“no. You don’t have to mess with that person. saying you’re busy Go quickly.”

There is definitely something to shoot for.

Siwoo wanted to say that he cared for you enough to die in your place even if he looked like a human being, but he knew that he wouldn’t listen even if he tipped him off.

‘hmm.’

Siwoo briefly thought about whether it would be okay to play around a little.

It’s not meddling in family affairs, but… … . I think the level of reconciliation between siblings will be fine.

The sooner the relationship between Yoo Ji-hyeok and Yoo Ji-min improves, the better.

Because of the absurd setting of Siscon, it is better for Siwoo to improve their relationship little by little from now on, rather than making a dramatic reconciliation by sacrificing in the future when one of them is in danger of dying in the future.

The fact that I have a good relationship with Yu Ji-min also played a role in my decision.

In order to gain the favor of Yu Ji-hyeok, the strongest of the supporting actors, Si-woo decided to play a little, a little bit.

“then no.”

“… What’s wrong?”

“You should be close to your family.”

“… Sounds just like Dad.”

… To say the same thing as that idiot daughter. Siwoo did not show any change in expression through superhuman self-control.

“How about a proper introduction?”

“… what are you talking about all of a sudden You just have to go. you.”

Jimin grabbed Siwoo’s wrist again and tried to take him away. However, Siu did not budge.

“no? Then I’ll come and say hello.”

Saying that, Siu turned around. He only offers suggestions.

The relationship between the two is improved, but Siwoo has no intention of forcing it. Because that destroys a good relationship of trust.

Actively persuading or threatening to do something if they don’t apologize is excessive meddling beyond ignorance.

It’s not about interfering in family relationships. Even if you lead a cow to a stream, it is up to the cow to drink it, and trying to force feed it will only make the cow hate it.

Then, it was Jimin who grabbed his wrist again.

Siu was a little surprised. Her expression was something I had never seen before. You look nervous, you look resentful, you look embarrassed, you look like you’re crying.

He pretended not to know and spat it out.

“why?”

“… Why are you?”

“what?”

“… … Ask because you don’t know?”

“I’m just an academy senior and your brother, so I’m just saying hello.”

Siwoo looked at her and said.

“… Because you don’t have to. You said you were busy. Go quickly.”

Jimin pulled Shiu’s wrist again.

Emotional. It’s embarrassing to see it for the first time, but it’s a good thing.

From nob le mt l dot com

No one is more swayed than a person in an emotional state.

Siu said in a calm tone.

“I have a rough idea of what the relationship is like, but if I leave like this, whenever I run into you, I will have to pretend I don’t know and he will think I’m strange. do you want that?”

“… … that!”

“that?”

“… … .”

Jimin was silent. Siwoo looked down at the wrist she was holding for a moment before continuing.

“I won’t say hello if I don’t like you.”

“… … … ?”

“I’m your friend, so you can’t force your friend to do something he doesn’t like.”

“… … .”

Jimin looked at him with a puzzled expression.

“greeting. Shall we not?”

I couldn’t answer his question.

Jimin staring at the floor with a hug. It was like watching a pouting nephew. It’s almost the same if you look at the age… … I don’t. Well, a 20-year-old nephew in his early thirties makes no sense.

I continued with the feeling that I was trying to soothe my younger brother, who had a large age difference.

“greeting. Wouldn’t it be better?”

“… .”

Silence has many meanings. Most are positive or negative, but right now we are in the middle. She won’t even know what’s right. In this case, you should definitely push.

“I want you to introduce me to what I already do. There’s no other reason, it’s just that I’m sorry for leaving you alone at a distance when I’m saying hello.”

Siu grabbed her wrist. It sounds soft without resistance.

“Can’t you please do me a favor for a friend?”

I didn’t say anything more.

He holds her wrist, but stays still. after a moment of silence. A small voice was heard, broken by the sound of the wind.

“… ask. I will listen.”

“okay. thanks.”

Siwoo smiled and led Jimin to Jihyeok.

Jihyeok was still there.

The other thing is that the eyes are slightly wide open.

Jimin opened his mouth in a crawling voice.

“… here it is my friend… . Same class anyway. Siwoo Lee. Very strong.”

“Hello, senior. Class 1-A. My name is Siu Lee.”

Siwoo bent his waist at a 90 degree angle.

Even after a few seconds, it remains silent.

thud-! I raised my head at the sound. It was Jihyeok who entered the mansion before he knew it.

“… look at it I knew that person would be like that.”

Jimin grumbled.

“Well, it’s okay because I said hello.”

You shouldn’t answer like that in order to sympathize with Jimin, who is slightly pouting here. Deep relationships take a long time to heal. Siwoo has to play the role of mediator during that long period of time.

It is better to refrain from remarks that favor one side.

Wasn’t this why you asked for a favor earlier?

“Anyway, thank you. Please do my favor.”

“… … huh.”

He just pouted, but at the answer like a younger sister who is good at answering, Siwoo looked at the door of the mansion with a grin.

‘I’m going to die, right?’

Jimin wouldn’t know. thud-! The fact that Ji-hyeok, who entered after closing the door, was sobbing by now. Wouldn’t he be buried in the pillow with emotion at the fact that his brother introduced him to his friend for the first time?

I think it left a good impression.

Siwoo left Jimin’s house.
