All Warriors Are My Disciples

141. Persuasion

“Is the story over?”

As soon as we left Yeongju Castle, Master sneaked up to us.

Would it be tiring to be entangled with nobles again like before?

I was concerned about that part, so I left Master behind.

Ester, you’ll keep wearing the hood, so there’s no problem.

Even if Iris is tricked by a strange person, she will be able to handle it properly.

Because Master hates hoodies and doesn’t like going over moderately.

“Yes. Well done.”

“Did that aristocrat agree? It would be right not to do it originally.”

“Don’t worry, Master. I persuaded them very well.”

“Did you really persuade me?”

“Yes.”

“… Doesn’t it look like the main seat?”

I just laughed at Master’s straight-forward words.

Speaking in conclusion, I was persuaded.

It’s just that something other than words were added in the process.

But wasn’t there such a good word in the world?

Kind words and fists can do more than kind words.

Oh, was it a gun, not a fist? Well, that’s what it is, so let’s get over it.

“If so, how long will I be staying here?”

“A month at the most is all. Even if you stay here for several years and teach, it will be no different than a month. It’s because I want to teach you the really basic things, the things you can do at least one thing properly when a crisis hits.”

“The people here are what you are trying to teach?”

“You say it for granted. Couldn’t Master step forward?”

In response to my answer, Master suddenly looked at me with strange eyes.

At the moment I was about to ask why are you doing this all of a sudden.

“You won’t do it.”

“Yes?”

“Why don’t you do it and leave it to Iris and Esther?”

It was a bit sudden and unexpected.

Let’s give Iris and Esther the role of teaching people?

Iris still has a lot to learn, and Ester is too shy?

No matter how possible Iris is, Esther will have a hard time.

He hid behind me because Baron Rahman was screaming a little while ago.

However, it is embarrassing to hear that Master gives such an opinion.

“… May I ask why?”

“Didn’t you tell me? Both Iris and Esther still have things to learn. It means that there is a part that needs to grow a little more and realize a little more.”

“… I must have said that.”

“That’s why I want to leave it to the two of you. Originally, people teach others and at the same time realize their own shortcomings. From my point of view, it would be good for the two of them to be taught, but on the contrary, I don’t think it would be bad to find something lacking in themselves while teaching.”

I was briefly troubled by Master’s opinion.

Originally, I’m in charge of the people and roll them appropriately.

Ester and Iris left it to their master to set the blade more firmly.

That seemed like the most effective and rational decision.

But since Master said that, it definitely creates conflict.

Because people can learn while teaching others.

On the contrary, he said that there were many people who realized their own shortcomings.

“… Certainly, I think Master is right.”

Coming to think of it, Iris knows a lot of things that I never taught him.

Like building trenches, building fences, digging traps.

A really good way to keep the monsters in check after running into them.

In addition, the use of shields, spears, and ranged weapons to withstand the defense.

I definitely know what can be effective in battles with monsters.

As expected, should I say it’s like a regressor who went through a great war?

Remembering those parts made me think Iris was trustworthy.

Based on your own experience, you can teach ordinary people better than I can.

“But Esther is kind of worried.”

“His personality is a bit messed up. Even I understand that.”

“This is the same guy who was startled by the screams of the person he startled a while ago.”

“… How could that guy’s personality be so bad? He doesn’t do that when he’s fighting.”

It seems that just thinking about it makes my heart suffocate.

Puff up your chest! It was the teacher who knocked.

To be honest, there are times when I feel a bit frustrated with esters like that.

I’d rather be frozen in everything, I can’t even say anything.

But this guy, when he goes into battle again, it seems like there is no such timid person in this world.

The good Esther used to unleash gruesome attacks as if she had been frozen.

Is it really a double personality? Just pull out a dagger and the child changes completely.

So, the character outside of the battle and the character within the battle, somewhere in between.

I tried to point out one part as appropriate as possible, but all failed.

Anyway, this also seems to be a trick on the part of the developer.

Anyway, what were these perverted developers thinking when they came up with the character settings? Really.

“But even so, I think I will need Esther as well.”

“I don’t think ordinary people want his agility and stealth.”

“You sound obvious. A hundred years is not enough for those humans to become like Esther.”

“… Then, are you trying to get me to learn about poison?”

At my words, Master nodded in affirmation.

“However, they are reluctant to arm themselves, but if you tell them how to use poison….”

Of course the nobles would start a match and say no.

These are the ones who worry about whether their swords will return to them.

What if people learn poison as well as weapons?

Conversely, it was possible to fear those people more than the monsters.

“When did I tell you how to use extreme poison and how to make it?”

“If it’s not….”

“Looks like they’ve been manufacturing poison that compromises at a reasonable level these days. Something that wasn’t lethal, but could sap the power of those monsters. That would be enough for the nobles to agree. Of course, if you tell me how to decipher it, it will be even more reassuring.”

“Hmm….”

“There is nothing like cutting down the enemy’s strength. Arming and training them doesn’t seem to be enough to build the defense line you’re thinking of.”

Certainly, there is nothing wrong with Master’s words.

If you use a moderately low poison to reduce the power of the monsters first.

You can deal with low-level monsters as well as intermediate-level ones if you do well.

If the enemy is a demon worshiper who is also a human being, the decryption technique may escape.

If all you have to do is just rush at it unconditionally, there is no better way than that.

Even if it blurs your mind a bit, even if it dulls it a bit.

The survivability of these people will increase exponentially.

In that way, you can inspire confidence and hope in people.

Even if their force is of no real help.

At least it will keep the world from collapsing for a few days.

I want Esther to get closer to people.

“By the way, Master.”

“Tell me.”

“I’m curious about something.”

“What are you curious about?”

“Yes. Didn’t Master just say that a person can teach someone else and fill in their own deficiencies?”

“Yes.”

“If so, what about me?”

“… Yes?”

“You must have gained something from teaching me.”

“… Why are you so confident?”

“Because you said I was the first and last disciple. You said I was a decent guy, so you must have gained something.”

At my words, Master looked at me for a moment.

Then it seems like it’s amazing! And groans.

“What do you mean? Hyeoni, did you say that you helped me in any way to enlighten me?”

“Isn’t it?”

“Not at all. This guy. I was already perfect before I met you.”

“Well, that’s right. By the way, Master.”

I’m not just talking about Master’s strength.

What else could there be other than reminding you to become stronger?

“Have you really not gained anything?”

“… What are you talking about?”

“Have you really not gained anything from teaching me?”

At this level, Master would have noticed what I meant.

“… This, this guy?!”

Your face suddenly turned red, and you hurriedly looked around.

Fortunately, Iris and Esther are not with me.

As soon as I confirmed that, Master grabbed me by the collar.

“What are you trying to do! Why, why are you saying that!”

“I want to see Master blush.”

“You bastard. Is it to scorn the sky-like teacher?”

“No. The sky is so pretty that I just reach out my hand again.”

While I wasn’t aware of it, the words flowed out like a clearing flow.

Even if you wonder if he was good at saying such slick words.

Looking at Master’s face getting even redder makes me proud.

“… You and I are still in a priestly relationship.”

“I know.”

“In case others find out what happened between you and me.”

“What will you do if it becomes known?”

“If I kill you, I will also die.”

“Ji, are you serious?”

“That’s why it’s meant to be kept secret! I can’t let this embarrassing thing get caught!”

Why would someone who was so active when kissing be like this again?

It was so hard to endure the sudden desire to say no.

“Do you understand? It should never be known to others.”

“My students. What about Master’s grandchildren? I think they’ll figure it out soon.”

“They are even worse! How can you show such an absurd figure as Grand Master!”

From my point of view, the kids are so quick-witted that I think they’ll figure it out right away.

“… Instead of.”

Master calmed down after a while and looked around once more.

After confirming again and again that there is no one like that.

Master sneaked up to me and slowly opened his mouth.

“If it’s just the two of us like this, then I don’t think I need to hide it.”

“… So, are you saying that you are not in a priest-teacher relationship now?”

“Okay. It may be a priestly relationship, or it may not be.”

“Ambiguous. Are you avoiding it like this? You force me to answer.”

“Sah, becoming a man and not waiting for a woman’s heart?”

“It’s like this because he suddenly revealed everything.”

Of course, I like Master’s shy look, but it’s so beautiful.

Rather than that, I want to see him stepping out a little more aggressively.

I want to get a little closer to this person and to the woman called Natural Hwa.

“Don’t fret. Did I say that I could run away anywhere? As it has been for 10 years, I will continue to be by your side. Well, being so impatient isn’t too bad, though.”

After Master said that, it was great! You coughed.
