My Disciples Know That I Am Strong

Episode 4. Growing the warriors (2)

“From tomorrow, I will teach you the direction to become stronger. If you grow along with it, you will definitely be able to become stronger.”

I said as I made the bed covers in my room.

After tidying up, I felt that one bed was too small for three children to sleep in.

Even ten-year-olds couldn’t sleep three people on a single bed.

“Ariel… As expected, you should go to the spirit realm. There is no bed space.”

“The bed over there is quite big. I don’t think it would be enough for me, Praus, and one child to lie down, right?”

He said, pointing to the back room where his parents used to live.

Why don’t you know that it’s not important.

Don’t you know what it means for grown men and women to sleep in the same bed?

Of course, I wonder if the Spirit King is old enough to care about such things.

I won’t be able to sleep because I’m worried.

‘You man, if I sleep with you, Phasma won’t be jealous.’

“Why should I sleep with you?”

“Is that a promise?”

“I never promised that.”

“Prause, don’t mind if it’s because of Phasma. No matter what anyone says, the only thing I like is Phasma.”

Only Phasma.

Her words made her feel how happy she was to have her phasma back.

But does she know?

I’m wandering this world as a ghost right now, but Phasma will disappear someday.

Now, her unshakable vengeance serves as a medium to connect with him, but when her weapon is broken or lost, she will never be able to meet Phasma again.

Of course, I can’t meet her forever, but Phasma’s ghost will remain in this world. Only the medium connecting me and her phasma is gone.

However, the moment Phasma’s desire to remain as a ghost is fulfilled, he disappears.

And I already knew Phasma’s longing. That someday it will happen.

In the end, this couple was also one of a chain of tragedies that could not be continued.

“…… What would you do if Phasma were to perish forever?”

Without realizing it, I just spit it out.

Even though I had no intention of speaking, I couldn’t help but be embarrassed when it came out of my mouth.

“Yes…… ?”

“No, never mind.”

“Well, why do you ask such a thing? Did you have any problem? Did you stop talking to Phasma?”

Hurrying to grab my arm, I ask. Her face, which had been smiling a little while ago, hardened.

“That is not true.”

[Friend, can’t you hear my voice?]

“It sounds good.”

“Well, then why are you asking that question?”

“I was just asking. It means nothing.”

I have no intention of doing anything to Ariel. Because NTR is a sin.

In the game, it was directed to give sadness and emotion, but now that it has become a reality, it is just a pity.

“Prause, what do you know?”

“I would have said I was just asking.”

“…… You knew me from the first time we met. I was ‘confident’ about what was going to happen in the future.”

Grabs my arm and forces me to look back at myself.

“Tell me.”

‘It will be more difficult if you know… ….’

“If I knew, what would be the difference?”

Can’t you be a little kinder at times like this?

No matter how many words come out of my mouth, I can’t get rid of the feeling that it’s too far-fetched.

“At least…… When the time comes, I don’t want to break up in a hurry.”

Ariel had a determined face, like a person who had finished her resolution, but she couldn’t hide the sadness in her eyes.

“…… I’m not completely sure either. But nothing will happen for at least ten years.”

Unless the demon suddenly behaves strangely and creates a variable.

“Then—”

“I will end the small talk here. As for the bed, Ariel and the two of you sleep together in the master bedroom. One sleeps with me Who will sleep with me?”

I thought it would be too long if I kept talking, so I changed the topic and made my own decision.

But maybe the kids thought it was a serious story, so they couldn’t move on to the next topic easily.

Ah, I brought up the story for no reason.

I was about to let out a sigh and decide on my own.

From noble mtl dot com

“Me! I want to sleep with Prause.”

Tina, who was hugging her pillow before she knew it, raised her hand and said. Only then will others come to their senses.

“Oh, wait a minute—”

“Do it.”

“Now that it’s decided, Iris and Maria sleep in the other room. I’ll go to the village and ask a carpenter for a bed, so bear with me. Sleep well then.”

I quickly finished my speech so that no one else could speak, and went into the room. Tina comes in and closes the door.

I rushed straight to the bed and lay down. The bed was almost full just by lying down.

Tina then carefully climbed onto the bed. I glanced at her, feeling her body shake, and she was crouching with her back turned away from me.

“Prause…… “

“… Tight.”

“Yes. Lord, go to sleep.”

Tina seemed to have a question for me too, but she didn’t want to take it now.

I closed my eyes.

It took less than a minute to fall asleep.

* * *

Prause and Tina go into the room, and Iris and Maria go to bed as well.

I took a bath and ate dinner to my heart’s content.

It was difficult for ten-year-old children, who were just growing up, to endure sleepiness.

The two of them slipped into the bed while making the bed, and looked at Ariel while they were properly seated.

“Ariel, won’t you come in?”

Even to Maria’s question, Ariel was in no mood to answer.

‘Pasma disappearing? Also? Why?’

Ariel has been trusting Prause’s words and actions ever since she saw her three children awaken as heroes.

In fact, there is no ‘ground’ in what he says, but there was never a lie.

The fact that the Phasma I did this time might disappear also meant that it was close to the truth.

That fact made her heart ache to the point of terribly.

‘What if I’m the King of Spirits, I can’t even protect the person I love.’

The wind blows all around her, touching the furniture in the house.

It wasn’t until a tableware that rattled and clattered that it fell to her floor that she regained her senses.

Picks up her cutlery from her own feet and puts it back to her original place.

“After… ….”

I can barely breathe deeply to calm her mind.

‘It’s been ten years. Ten years, you’ll be fine. I’m sure if I find a way in the meantime, something will work out.’

She went into her bedroom, trying to drive out her negative thoughts.

“Tina, take it.”

I gave Tina an unshakable vengeance.

“That sword contains the ghost of Phasma. Use the skill to learn the illusion sword from Phasma.”

“The illusion sword?”

“Yes. After you’ve learned everything, tell Iris. You two will learn swordsmanship from Phasma.”

The Illusion Sword is a swordsmanship that dazzles the opponent with the anomaly of not knowing what kind of attack to use, but it is an all-around swordsman whose shape changes depending on who is holding the sword.

…… Said she in the game settings book.

Although it is a ridiculous setting, there is no way to grow as quickly as this.

Originally, when I met Phasma, it was a transition period from the beginning to the middle.

In other words, it was around the time they reached their growth limit after awakening.

But I used an expedient to speed up the growth of the warriors.

It is said that there will be several years before the Great War, but it was not at all leisurely.

Considering the various conflicts, including demons, they had an obligation to grow up as quickly as possible.

Anyway, the swordsmanship of Tina and Iris, who learn the illusion swordsmanship in that way, has a different characteristic.

Tina is reckless and focuses on one shot, while Iris is rational and counter-oriented.

I was thinking of telling you about the direction.

“First learn the basics from Phasma. After I learn everything, I will give you a suitable direction.”

The two looked at each other bewildered and nodded.

“Phasma, although they are awakened, they are 10-year-olds, so teach them at an appropriate level.”

I don’t know if you’re listening, but I said it into the air. Surely, after hearing the story yesterday, you wouldn’t get mad and run away, would you?

“Get started.”

After saying that, I saw Maria standing hesitantly next to me.

“Ariel, teach Maria wind magic. I want to be able to reach the highest hierarchy possible. When teaching other attribute magic, I would like you to call the other spirit kings.”

She specializes in wind.

He may have knowledge of other attributes, but wouldn’t it be more efficient to call other spirit kings with their own specialties?

“I will. I will do that, so tell me how and why Phasma disappears.”

“Nothing good to hear about that.”

“…… I thought about it all night last night.”

She says with her fists clenched at my firm attitude.

“I want to hear the story. How phasma disappears It doesn’t matter how many years are left. If she knew how she disappeared, she would surely find a way.”

No. Never find a way

I don’t know anything else, but I can be sure of this. Phasma’s attaining Buddhahood was an unavoidable ‘causation’ in this world.

“…… I’ll see what you teach and judge. After hearing the story for no reason, it would be troublesome to run away saying that Phasma is the priority.”

“Okay. I will do my best to teach you. Please tell me later.”

“Don’t worry.”

I looked over the whole picture of the children right before training and then turned around.

Where should I prepare lunch?

“Is this Pretium?”

I arrived in the imperial capital in a few days.

On top of the famous fortified castle, Commander Harbito was looking down at the panoramic view of Pretium.

At his feet lay the withered knights of the Imperial Knights.

“Mr. Habito.”

“What is it?”

“I don’t think it would be good to stay here for a long time.”

One of the limbs appeared before him and fell to his knees.

“What happened?”

“Anti-demonic magic,” Which weakens the power of demons, is installed throughout the capital. The longer you stay, the stronger it seems.”

Anti-demon magic.

No matter how strong the corps commander is, it was a demon-only response magic that gave debuffs to demons without exception.

It greatly reduces the power of magic skills, and plays a large role in adversely affecting the eruption of magical power.

It was installed not only in the capital, Pretium, but also in all the cities of the empire, as well as all over the land of the empire.

“I see. I get it. Let’s get it back as quickly as possible.”

“And, it was found that there is a ‘purification stone’ here.”

“…… What? Why is there a stone of purification in the capital that has disappeared in history?”

It was something that could not be known when it was said that it was a demon.

It was a very repulsive and unpleasant thing.

It absorbed all kinds of demonic energy just by being around it, making them as weak as humans, so it was a stone that demons should avoid the most.

I would say that if you create a barrier with dozens of purification stones, even the demon king won’t be able to move.

“I don’t know that much.”

Harbito felt his head pounding.

“The situation is not good. If the stones of purification start to be discovered, it could cause problems in future wars. When you find a stone of purification, destroy it immediately.”

‘Who the hell found this stone of purification? The same goes for the hero, did all of this happen by chance?’

That can’t be.

He was sure. That someone is involved in all of this.

“Okay.”

The limbs bowed their heads deeply.

“I will retrieve the deputy corps commander. You deal with the purification stone.”

Brigade Commander Habito said as he jumped off the 20-meter wall.

‘I don’t know if it’s in the capital, but I’ll have to look for it. I don’t know who’s plotting it.’
