Iron Blooded Villain’s Academy Class

Episode 60

Inoa looked at the other with deeply sunken eyes. Contrary to his calm demeanor, Pyo Soo-ho had an excited face.

“Mmm! I would have hoped to see it in the finals, but it turned out to be a pity!”

Saying so, Pyo Soo-ho grabbed his sword. His eyes sparkled like a child receiving a birthday present.

“However, a match as a swordsman! To me, this showdown is practically the final!”

Even in the midst of such words, Inoa did not answer a single word. All his nerves were focused on his surroundings.

‘Currently, the only thing I can step on is this narrow floor.’

True to its name, Sinking Swamp was swampy, and the plants rising above the swamp seemed too fragile to support him.

– Neither you nor Pyo Soo-ho have the skills to operate an aura according to the shaking liquid yet.

Lee Noah remembered Kang Tae-min’s coaching.

A person with the level of skill as Geomju or Pyo Ji-hoon would fight regardless of the surrounding environment, but it was difficult to reach that level with special training alone.

– Neither you nor the leopard can attack from a distance. So, if you fall into the swamp, your defeat will deepen.

If you fall into a swamp, you don’t sink right away. However, it becomes difficult to control the body, and it is close to impossible to face the opponent in a disheveled posture.

In the end, both of them were on a muddy floor barely two feet wide between swamps.

It was like fighting on a single wooden bridge.

If so, isn’t Inoa, who has a unique recovery ability, an advantage?

No, it wasn’t.

“I hope it will be a game without regrets!”

Pyo Soo-ho shouted energetically and raised an aura. A vivid white aura blooming over the blade.

“You already know my ability, right? It is to determine superiority and inferiority with pure swordsmanship!”

Pyosuho’s ability, ‘Neutralizer’ As the name suggests, that pure white mana ‘neutralizes’ other mana.

In other words, if that sword got stuck in his body, even if he was Inoa, he would not be able to swallow it with his powers, nor would he be able to summon his body condition.

‘Can’t rely on ability.’

Inoa already knew. It was thanks to Kang Tae-min’s coaching and confirming Pyo Soo-ho’s match.

“Noah! You must be different from those who only believe in your abilities! Show your strength!”

Pyo Soo-ho’s expression changed completely. His eyes were still shining, but a sharp aura radiated from his body.

Inoa received that fighting spirit with his body and charged forward.

* * *

‘Oh my gosh… .’

Park Hyun-ah, who was watching the match in the waiting room of the leading teacher, opened her mouth without realizing it.

‘I never thought it would be this much.’

It was because Pyo Soo-ho and Inoa showed equal appearances. It was a great shock to her that the two were on equal footing with pure swordsmanship skills.

‘I know that my father gives private lessons… .’

Not only did Pyo Soo-ho have a motivated personality, but his father, Sword Master, taught his son directly.

However, the fact that Inoa is equal means that he also trained continuously.

‘You mean that teacher Kang Tae-min’s level of swordsmanship education is on the same level as Pyo Soo-ho’s father?’

It was a case where Kang Tae-min’s ability was proven.

“Student Inoa is really, really amazing. I think I know why you transferred.”

Park Hyun-ah was genuinely impressed. While preparing for coaching, she learned that Lee Noah was a transfer student.

At first, it didn’t make sense to give up the prestigious Oblige Academy, but now I can understand it.

‘You went to see Teacher Kang Tae-min, not Noblesse.’

At those words, Kang Tae-min was calm, but Iru-a smiled lightly.

“It will not end in admiration.”

“Still, it will be tough to beat Suho.”

“Tough doesn’t mean impossible.”

The two had a tense battle of nerves, expressing their feelings for their younger brother and disciple.

“Oh, then how about a simple bet? If our Suho wins, Mr. Kang will buy you a drink.”

Park Hyun-ah suggested a bet with a light attitude. However, the target was Kang Tae-min, not Lee Lu-ah.

Irua couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

“Suddenly, why did you… !”

“Because you are the homeroom teacher? Besides, if I had a drink, I thought it would be more fun to drink with Mr. Kang.”

She was blatantly selfish. I always wanted to make an appointment, but isn’t this a good opportunity?

For Eruah, it was a daunting task.

Of course she was going to object. It would have been if Kang Tae-min hadn’t opened his mouth first.

“Is Pyo Soo-ho the current head of Obliju?”

Park Hyun-ah blinked for a moment at the question that suddenly popped out, but then shook her head.

“Yes. I wasn’t just the chief, I was always the chief.”

“therefore… .”

Taemin Kang blurted out his words. Park Hyun-ah sneakily asked the question again.

“So, what do you think?”

He took his eyes off the screen and looked at Park Hyun-ah. Irua looked at the two of them alternately with a slightly disapproving expression.

‘Of course you decline the bet and support Noah, right?’

However, Kang Tae-min’s answer was not natural.

“Noah was out of luck.”

* * *

Inoa frowned.

‘Surely strong… !’

I expected. It was because Kang Tae-min also judged that way while coaching.

-Pyo Soo-ho is the son of the sword master. I was born with a good environment and a good opportunity. But not you.

It was different from the environment I grew up in.

Inoa took care of the housework in place of her sister, and spent time secretly attacking dungeons or worrying about her sister.

So, there was bound to be a difference in achievement. In fact, the amount of aura wrapped around the sword is clearly different.

If Pyo Soo-ho’s ability had been a normal Aura rather than neutralization, the sword would have already been broken.

Even so, there was one reason why it was not easy to lose.

– It is impossible to catch up with that achievement now. So, what you need to learn is a person named Pyo Soo-ho.

Kang Tae-min designated Pyo Soo-ho and Ko Min-soo as candidates for Lee No-ah to face in the final and gave special training.

Because Ko Min-soo was able to spar with him, what he mainly taught was how to deal with Pyo-su-ho.

-Pyo Soo-ho has an upright personality, but the sword is different. I will trick you somehow and try to seduce you.

Somehow, Kang Tae-min was able to penetrate Pyo-su-ho and reproduced the swordsmanship.

Thanks to that special training and natural talent, Inoa was able to penetrate Pyo Soo-ho’s sword path.

But even in that situation, there was a reason why he couldn’t win.

‘Something is strange… .’

The swordsmanship shown by Taemin Kang and the swordsmanship of Pyo Suho in the video were almost identical. However, when I actually bumped into him directly, the original Pyo Soo-ho’s swordsmanship was even more mediocre.

‘Is it because of the sword master?’

maybe it’s a trap It may have been a change caused by the sword master’s advice to his son.

Inoa decided to make a careful decision.

* * *

‘Are you the chief?’

Kang Tae-min recalled Pyo Soo-ho before returning.

‘Indeed, I guess so.’

Even though he was in a different class than himself, he was a guy who was so motivated that he always took on challenges after school.

He regarded himself as a rival and enjoyed the challenge itself.

‘But in this life I don’t exist.’

But now it is different. Pyo Soo-ho has no rivals.

In his absence, Pyo Soo-ho’s level of achievement fell below Kang Tae-min’s expectations.

‘It’s like I’ve made Noah work harder than necessary.’

This was the reason Kang Tae-min told Park Hyeon-ah that ‘Noah was unlucky’.

Of course, I couldn’t tell you the inside story, so I didn’t attach a supplementary explanation.

‘Still, it’s not bad in the long run.’

It is better to have too much than not enough. It was during that judgment. Beyond the screen, Inoa’s prayer changed in an instant.

It was a transition from being defensive all the way to being on the offensive.

‘Is the search over?’

It is said that they reproduced Pyo Soo-ho’s swordsmanship, but there was a difference in physique between Kang Tae-min and Pyo Soo-ho. So, in the beginning, I was coached that it was better to explore for adaptation.

“Uh, uh?!”

Park Hyeon-ah’s drooping eyes fluttered. A look of bewilderment was evident when the situation suddenly changed.

Seeing that, Irua clenched her fists.

‘Our Noah is good! That’s right, who taught you!’

She silently cheered inwardly.

Pyosuho was not easily pushed. But little by little, the gap was widening.

“Uh… !”

Park Hyeon-a clasped her hands together and watched the situation with anxious eyes. Even in her eyes, Inoa’s momentum was unusual.

A sharp and ferocious sword attack that evaded the protective equipment resulted in a slight cut.

However, Pyo Soo-ho’s eyes did not die.

＜Excellent!＞

Pyo Soo-ho’s admiration heard from beyond the screen. And along with him, the white aura that wrapped around the sword focused into one point.

Then there was a loud banging sound.

The condensed white aura pushed away the blue aura and cut the sword. Inoa’s sword was cut in half.

“Wow! Reversal! Reversal!”

For a moment, Park Hyun-ah looked back at the two, confident of victory. Although Irua’s expression was stained with worry.

Kang Tae-min was calm.

＜Your father is watching. I’m sorry but I can’t lose.＞

Pyo Soo-ho also seemed certain of victory. However, instead of answering, Inoa charged again with a broken sword.

＜There must be no chance of winning with Aura?!＞

If he raised an aura in place of the broken blade, he would still be able to fight.

＜Can’t let go of lingering feelings… Disappointing!＞

However, that method was meaningless as long as it was neutralized by Pyosuho’s ability. He tried to stop Inoa with the white aura again.

＜What I did not throw away is the possibility.＞

Inoa answered that.

One’s ability cannot harm the opponent. If you lose your weapon, it’s over.

I thought so.

-It doesn’t end when the sword breaks.

However, Taemin Kang did not say that. He still had a choice.

-Be your own weapon.

Inoa let go of his sword right before the clash. Pyo Soo-ho’s pupils widened.

– Then you become an unbreakable weapon.

A white aura dug into his shoulder. The blade and aura that penetrated the protection were soaked with blood.

In the agony she felt, Inoa clenched her fists.

‘It’s a fight… !?’

I couldn’t understand the Pyosuho. Inoa thought he was a swordsman like himself.

But why did the aura gather in Inoa’s fist?

Before long, Inoa smoked the clumped aura with his fist and turned it into a blade.

‘Noah has a rival.’

Something that Pyo Soo-ho doesn’t have in this life, but Inoa has.

The blade of his hand struck the Pyosuho’s side, causing an explosion. It was a modified version of the explosion fist that Lee Noah learned while studying Go Min-soo.

‘And it also means that Noah acknowledges Minsu as much.’

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Lee Noah acknowledged Go Min-soo’s achievements and accepted them as his own.

＜Knock… !＞

Taken by surprise, Pyosuho couldn’t stand the shock and fell into the swamp. Pyo Soo-ho, who was trying to escape quickly, realized.

‘The ribs… !’

The excruciating pain felt every time he struggled, and the eyes of Inoa, who did not die even though he was bleeding profusely.

Pyo Soo-ho realized. Even if I tried to climb up somehow, he wouldn’t let me.

＜Great… did!＞

He gritted his teeth and raised his thumb toward Inoa. The prejudice and complacency of being a prosecutor overturned the victory.

He struggled to speak.

＜I lost… ＞

At his declaration of surrender, Irua jumped up.

“Wow!”

When his brother’s victory was decided, he forgot his poker face and shouted.

Eventually, Kang Tae-min noticed and hurriedly covered his mouth, but he didn’t even care.

‘It’s definitely changed.’

The hesitation disappeared from Inoa’s sword.

It was like that even before the final, but Kang Tae-min, whose true face came out ahead of a crisis, finally accepted Lee Noa’s change.

“Honey, oh, yes. principal.”

At that time, Irua received a phone call.

“… Kimchi soup?”

What is kimchi soup all of a sudden? It was a word that could not be inferred from the conversation.

“Ah yes. I’ll go right away. Senior, I will go to the VIP room for a while.”

Iruah immediately ended the call and whispered to Kang Taemin. He responded with a nod of his head.

“congratulations. I really didn’t know that Suho would lose.”

While she was away, Park Hyun-ah approached and congratulated her.

“I’m worried that Suho will be okay. This is probably the first time I’ve lost… .”

“Let’s talk about bets and conditions.”

When Taemin Kang stopped talking, she blinked. I thought you rejected it, but did you decide to do it?

‘Well, it’d be better if they made an appointment at least.’

It was a bet he intended to use as an excuse anyway. She smiled and nodded her head.

“Ah, that’s right. If you’re buying alcohol, can I really treat you to a full course?”

Kang Tae-min said to her with a faint but slightly bitter smile.

“I put off drinking until later. Promise me one instead.”

“… Appointment?”

“Yes.”

Park Hyun-ah was puzzled. It was so absurd that I was curious.

What promise is this man asking for?

“Anytime you need help, call me then.”

Kang Tae-min thought that she would not become a villain because she stopped terrorism.

‘But I’m not sure.’

However, unless we know exactly why she became a villain, we couldn’t think of it as a perfect solution.

That’s why I conveyed my heart.

Don’t disappear alone like before.

“then.”

Taemin Kang left.

Park Hyeon-ah was standing there, staring at her back.

* * *

Ko Min-soo easily won the victory over Inoa.

The semi-finals ended like that, and the finals became the exclusive stage for Noblesse Academy.

Thanks to that, our dorm was in a festive mood under Rosalyn’s leadership, and the lights did not go out until this late hour.

But the reason the light in my room didn’t go off was a little different.

“Thank you for your time even late at night.”

A gentleman with a cane greeted me with a smile. Why did Geomju and Pyo Ji-hoon come to my room?

“First of all, I must apologize for being conceited. This competition was really different from what I expected.”

Pyo Ji-hoon sat down and let out a hollow laugh. But then he spoke with a serious expression.

“Thanks to this, my son seems to have been greatly shocked. As the father, I have come to you with a request.”

It’s a request from the Sword Master.

It wouldn’t hurt to listen.
