I Became an Academy Genius Swordsman

Episode 55

One

Second day of public support.

More high-ranking wizards and special abilities were put in than yesterday. Skilled wizards created buildings as if they were stamping them out, and dozens of buildings were created in an hour. Districts such as residential, commercial, industrial, distribution and logistics were set, and the city quickly regained its original form in an instant.

The role of the cadets has risen due to the activities of high-ranking wizards and special abilities.

Although they were entrusted with the task of controlling the number of people, the only thing that could be said about controlling the number of people was to prevent conflicts that might occur within the building where the victims had settled or to prevent people from coming out.

However, people did not have time to create even seeds of conflict. People who could be said to be almost all of the shock of the hard-earned living grounds evaporating in one day were stuck in the newly sold houses.

That’s why no one came out because they were curious about the large-scale urban construction site where 10-meter-tall rebars fluttered through the sky and concrete poured like a waterfall in the air.

Even the work of the abandoned cadets had nothing to do. It was to the point where I could notice the routine, which was so sparse that I wondered if it was okay to stay like this.

Because of this, most of the cadets wandered around the wizard and found something to help with. I noticed it, and I want to build a little more friendship.

Of course, Siu stayed still. I brought a chair in front of the entrance of the apartment complex and pretended to be a security guard.

It’s exactly right to play alone while others are having a hard time. However, he has a reason. Even if you guys go to build friendships, it’s right for at least one person to stay and do the job, so it’s a self-sacrificing-non-selfish justification for me to stay.

“Hey, junior?”

“Yes, yes, let’s go.”

“Oh, thank you.”

Another one just left.

“I wish it was like this every day.”

From morning to 1:00 PM, no one came out.

Seeing the cadets waiting on the magician from afar, Siu clicked his tongue. Tsk tsk tsk, giving up the present honey to be comfortable in the future. It looked really stupid.

Then someone tapped him on the shoulder. When I looked behind me, no one was there. When I lowered my gaze, I saw a girl holding a wooden sword.

“uncle. Show me your swordsmanship.”

“bothered.”

Siwoo waved his hand.

“Show me your swordsmanship.”

“Play with your friends.”

“But nobody comes out of the house.”

Siwoo shook his hand again. it means go home

“There is no one at home… … .”

And the startled Siwoo jumped up from his seat.

“Did you go to work?”

“He passed away.”

“What shall I show you?”

“Hee hee. Show me your swordsmanship.”

Siu raised the plum sword. The bandage came off and the sword was revealed, briefly showing the herbivore of the plum swordsmanship. Crimson plum blossoms formed on the tip of the sword.

“Oh wow… … .”

It was embarrassing to practice swordsmanship while walking around people, so I finished it quickly, but the Maehwa Swordsmanship was enough to make the child’s eyes envy.

The girl couldn’t take her eyes off the plum blossoms at the tip of her sword.

“Can I touch it?”

“It works. Finger pop! and explode.”

“Ugh, that’s not funny.”

“Chiggle.”

The girl’s lips protruded, but Siu giggled for a while.

“I also want to bloom from the sword.”

“Take off the basic sword techniques and come back, baby.”

“I’m not a baby.”

“Yes, kid.”

“… Please call me a child.”

“You call me brother too.”

“Just call me a kid.”

“… … .”

In Dilkyo, Jin Siu was at a loss for words.

Are all the children in this world so talkative? I thought Soyul was a special case due to human experimentation, but wasn’t it the world average?

Siwoo, who was thinking about the outstanding intelligence of children in Yagame, was suddenly seized with a sense of shame.

‘What are you doing with the kid?’

Siu sat down in the chair again.

“By the way, what is your name?”

“You are asking really early. This is Lee Yullip.”

“Your name is pretty.”

“I hear that word often, but more often I hear that she is just pretty.”

“… … okay.”

“What is your uncle’s name?”

“Lee Siu.”

Siwoo Lee, Siwoo Lee… … . The muttered child nodded and said.

“Uncle Siu. Please show me other sword techniques.”

“Your uncle only knows how to do swordsmanship.”

“lie.”

“It’s true.”

“evidence.”

“It’s a pung.”

“Ugh, not even a kid.”

“Chiggle.”

Siwoo, whose playful spirit was triggered, started teasing Yullip again. Yulip tried to defend himself, but as expected, he couldn’t beat his seniority.

She ignored Siu’s teasing and raised a wooden sword.

“Look at the swordsmanship.”

“OK.”

Shiu, who teased enough to make fun of him, readily accepted.

Siu, who grasped the essence with just one glance at the basic swordsmanship book, corrected her swordsmanship.

It was close to a combination of simple movements and basic skills such as upper cut, stab, lift, fall back, and half-beat fast approach, so it was easy to correct Siwoo’s poor speech.

And is the talent recognized by the system really different?

If you tell her one, she awakens two, and if you tell her two, she awakens four.

I felt like I knew what teaching taste was like.

“Whoa! fun!”

“Is it good?”

“yes!”

Sweat dripped down her round cheeks.

The time passed 5 pm, and she continued to practice basic swordsmanship without a break.

After first suggesting a break, Siwoo didn’t bother to recommend a break to Yulip. Because sometimes there were tears in her eyes.

Siwoo stopped playing jokes in between and did his best to teach her.

Thanks to that, I was able to achieve the level of being mostly correct, although not perfect. It was hard to believe that a child who grabbed the sword for the first time yesterday had done it.

Siu was quite proud. It was like having a younger sister. Yoo Ji-hyeok seemed to understand a little, ah, a little.

It wasn’t until evening that Siu stopped her sword.

“I need to eat.”

“after! yes!”

“By the way, is your guardian not at home right now?”

I asked naturally without showing any signs of being cautious.

“yes. But, I have a brother.”

“How old is your brother?”

“Twenty-six. He is a hero who catches bad guys.”

“Um, yes.”

If the age difference wasn’t a few years old, I would have been worried about it, but fortunately, it seems that I have the ability to support myself.

“But your twenty-six-year-old brother is your brother, and why am I your uncle?”

“Ugh. It’s like an old man.”

“What, braided?”

“Are your older brothers and uncles the same?”

“That’s right.”

By dinner time, there were quite a few people coming out. Relief items are provided for breakfast and lunch, but meals are provided in the restaurant building for dinner.

Siwoo also took Yullip’s hand and headed for the meal building.

“Where is your brother?”

“I went to catch the bad guy. I went to punish the bad guys who ruined our neighborhood.”

“Are you a public service hero?”

“Um, I guess. They said I belonged to Go Heaven.”

“Go Heaven… … ?”

“yes.”

“Yeah, what. Go heaven or shogi hell or whatever. Do you also use a sword?”

“yes! My brother is very strong.”

We arrived at the restaurant building while chatting.

After receiving the rice and side dishes on the table, Siwoo looked around for a while. Since most of them sat together in groups, it was expected that his members would also sit together.

However, Jimin was eating quietly at a seat in the center of the dining hall, while Jihyeok was glancing at Jimin from a table two spaces behind her. Woojin and the hero from yesterday were chatting loudly at the table opposite.

“Uh huh, is this Joe?”

“yes?”

“no.”

Siu and Yulip just sat down and started eating. Perhaps he was hungry, Yullip ate as if closing his eyes.

After adequately filling their stomachs, they left the restaurant building.

Siu walked slowly.

“When is your brother coming?”

“He said he would come tomorrow, but I don’t know.”

“why?”

“I haven’t been able to reach you since last night.”

“Looks like you’re busy catching the bad guy.”

“that’s right. My brother is really strong.”

“So, if I go home now, no one will be there?”

“yes.”

“hmm. Shall we practice swordsmanship some more?”

“yes! I think that would be nice.”

The place Yulip pointed to was the place where Jihyeok was beaten like a dog yesterday.

“Well, there must be a better place elsewhere.”

Siwoo wasn’t as good as Jihyeok, but I didn’t want to practice swordsmanship there because I had tasted her emotional punch.

‘Ah, how can I solve this?’

I was in a state of cold war with Jimin for no reason. To be precise, Siwoo noticed, but anyway. His feelings with Ji-hyeok may have been resolved a little, but his relationship with himself was slightly out of sync, so it was a turning point.

‘it will work out somehow.’

Considering the trust we had built up so far, it wasn’t too far off, so I believed that time would solve it. Siwoo decided to focus on now.

“Too honest stab. You can rotate your wrist, or you can adjust the angle to become a connecting point for another attack.”

I wonder if she was being overly serious about her child, but she absorbed Siwoo’s words like a sponge. Suddenly, my eyes went to the children returning home holding their mom and dad’s hands, but every time I kept my mouth shut and swung my sword.

“Right. you’re good.”

“lol.”

Swordsmanship training continued until late in the evening. Except for a short trip to the instructor’s call-up order in the middle to announce tomorrow’s schedule, they stayed together for almost the entire day.

Yulip’s limbs trembled. It was already an area of abuse, but from now on, the body may be damaged. Siwoo declared the end and Yulip stretched out on the floor.

And covered his eyes with his arms.

Siwoo waited until Yulip woke up alone and took her home. I tried to carry him because I couldn’t stand properly, but Yullip refused.

There was no conversation until we arrived at the temporarily sold apartment. Compared to the hustle and bustle of the day, it was to the point where I felt a sense of alienation.

It was slow, but we finally got to the apartment.

“I’ll go alone here.”

“OK.”

“Uncle Siu, see you tomorrow.”

“okay.”

“I have to show you another swordsmanship tomorrow.”

“Nope.”

“It’s small.”

“That’s right.”

“It’s childish.”

“That’s right too.”

“lol.”

Siu waved her hand. She nodded goodbye and walked briskly.

Looking at the small back, Siwoo thought. Should I have comforted you? At that age, parents are the world itself. What kind of comfort should I have given to the child whose world disappeared overnight?

He shook his head. Because I understand that void and futility better than anyone else, I know that vague empathy is just sympathy. Even a child can read the emotions in a gaze, and that gaze will never be forgotten.

Yulip was already standing alone. She is a much more mature and amazing girl than she was when she was young. Trying to stand alone now.

Just standing next to it and a wall to lean on when she tries to fall is enough.

Siu went back to the dorm like that.

Two days after that, Friday returns to the academy.

2:00 AM in the rain.

The apartment exploded.

It was an apartment with Yulip.
