45 – Undefeated March

The selection process was fast paced. I had to deal with my classmates for a month and a half.

My first opponent was Arnes.

“Why is it you first?”

“hehehe, aren’t we supposed to meet someday anyway? Then let’s finish quickly and rest. If you are ready, let’s begin.”

“… For a moment!”

“What is it?”

“Do I have to? Just say you won.”

“Hmm…. Still, it’s a class, so you have to work hard. I will not accept surrender. Let’s finish it as quickly as possible.”

I spurred the ground to close the distance with Arnes.

He took a defensive stance, startled. My fist flew towards Arnes’s guard. He braced himself for the impact by shrinking his body.

Puuu!

Arnes put his hands together and was pushed back. His response was quicker than expected.

Looks like you did some physical training during the vacation.

Arnes’ body has changed even when he sees it with his own eyes. Unlike his first semester, he was a little bigger and had small muscles attached.

But….

Arnes’ body, which had been pushed back by the shock, did not stop. Arnes, who had been pushed out, left the field, and it ended with my victory in vain.

I had no intention of ending it in one blow. I just fired a light attack to see his improved body and figure out his skills. From the beginning, Arnes had no intention of sparring with me.

The first sparring ended in vain.

I became lethargic when my classmates dealt with me. Even in the first semester, I tried my best to fight, but now one of the two students avoided the fight before even fighting.

Fortunately, my friends at the Grand Gym did not avoid me.

“hahahaha…. I ended up fighting Gran. Actually, I couldn’t sleep last night.”

It was Nathan, a member of the group in the first semester and a Grand Gym member.

“Heh heh, it looks like you came here with a strategy in mind to fight me.”

“No…. I was worried about how much it would hurt.”

“Hmm, if you’re worried about that part, I can make it less painful.”

“What? Can you really? Even if it’s a buff… ?”

“If you hit your head hard, it won’t hurt that much.”

Nathan’s expression turned bitter. The dark circles that were usually visible at first glance seemed to have gotten a little darker.

“Yes…. It can’t be avoided anymore than this.”

“Yes, if you can’t avoid it, just enjoy it.”

“Have fun…. Ha ha ha ha ha,”

Nathan murmured softly, then began to grin, holding his stomach like a madman.

“Ha ha ha ha! Whatever it is, I enjoy it. hahahahaha, Gran is also very funny. Ha ha ha ha ha.”

“Nason. Let’s start.”

Nathan’s expression, which was forced to smile, hardened.

“Ha ha ha…. sh*t.”

A green light emanated from Nathan’s fist, as if he finally had the will to fight. He took a deep breath and stood up.

“Okay, let’s get started.”

As usual, I spurred the ground to close the distance with Nathan.

Nathan, who was lowering his stance, hit the ground and kicked him. Nathan’s foot flew at my side at high speed.

I did not dodge his attack and received it.

f*ck!

I immediately grabbed his leg and pulled him towards me.

“Ouch!”

Nathan, who was caught on one leg and lost his balance, was dragged along. He punched his fist at his chin.

Nathan hastily made a guard. However, the guard was not solid. My fist pierced Nathan’s guard and flew towards his chin.

Puuu!

I sent Nathan out of harm’s way.

Nathan passed out for about a minute. I patted Nathan on the cheek, and he jumped up.

“Huup! Now wait…. I’m not ready yet.”

“Heh heh, you can go and rest. The sparring is over.”

Nathan, looking around in bewilderment, got up and brushed his ass. His expression was better than before, and his face came alive.

“Yeah, happy….”

My next opponent was Princess Aliana.

She stood upright on her back and glared at me with her sharp eyes.

“Gran.”

“Mrs. Aliana.”

It seemed like the first time I had been called by the name of the princess. After thinking about what to say, she decided to just call me by the same name.

“He said he was from the Heretic Questioner.”

She seemed to have figured out who I was.

“Heh heh, who did you hear from?”

“Leia.”

Leia was a paladin who was my colleague and the Heretic Questioner in the past. She quit being an Inquisitor and she became an Imperial Paladin.

The Heretic Questioner’s identity was confidential, but it seemed that he had revealed it because of the princess’s pressure. Moreover, Leia was a person who was dissatisfied with the Heretic Inquisitor.

“Don’t worry. Because only I know I was forced to tell Because he’s not good at lying.”

“Okay. Then let’s begin.”

“What, are you not angry?”

Although I felt a bit betrayed, as long as the princess didn’t speak out, there wouldn’t be much of a problem for her.

“Then, let’s proceed.”

The princess tried to resist in her own way, but the result was as expected.

The selection was held in a total of six places. After the game, or not yet finished, the members could practice separately or watch their friends play.

There was one person who never took his eyes off me, and that was Kromer. He used to come over and watch my matches. He seemed to be analyzing me.

There was one more person watching my match, but it was a hero who had nothing to do with the tryouts. He watched my game without a presence.

Occasionally other children came to watch the game, but only occasionally. There was no information to be gained from my matches, and I was not popular because they ended very quickly.

Nevertheless, Kromer watched my match from start to finish. I heard that Kromer was an assassin and he was on an undefeated streak.

He had no talent for strength training, but he seemed to have a knack for fighting.

***

Dian was happy. To show the students of the academy an overwhelming difference in skills.

Originally, to him, the academy was like a playground for young children. He thought of the academy as a gathering place for stupid people who do not know the horrors of life.

The world was a terrible place.

Dian’s occupation was an assassin. If he had been born into a good family, he would have received a quality education and training, and would have taken on a righteous assassination mission. He could have become the kind of assassin that everyone in the world looks up to.

However, from the time he was born, he had a low life. He has no parents, no one to take care of him. In order for his profession to shine, he had to live without hesitation. Or give up his career path.

He endured and endured the hellish life.

The academy students seemed like puppies to Deian. The beneficiaries of the world who were born fortunately in good families.

Deian smiled and aimed both daggers at his opponent. In fact, the dagger was an unfamiliar weapon. He had only dealt with black magic for five years.

But it didn’t matter. He was good enough to deal with kids.

“What did you say your name was?”

“Kromer.”

“I am a viola. Let’s do well with fellow assassins.”

‘Same assassin?’

Dian found Viola’s words funny.

How could they be the same assassin? The environment in which they were born and raised is also different.

If Viola walked in sunny places with lively and fresh sunlight, she herself walked in wet and fishy shaded areas.

I gave up on the path of an assassin, but the girl in front of me is no match.

The corner of Deian’s mouth went up.

‘I’ll show you the gap.’

Dian moved quickly.

The viola also responded quickly. The daggers of the two collided. But Deian was astute. He read the movement of the viola.

Deian grabbed Viola’s wrist as she swung her sword backwards.

Dian bent Viola’s arms backwards and lifted them up.

Pud Deuk.

Viola collapsed with her screams. But Dean didn’t let go. He bent Viola’s arm a little higher.

Viola kicked her foot to express her pain, but Deian didn’t stop.

Deian untied his arm when Florina came running.

Viola’s arms were bizarrely bent behind her.

Florina looked back and forth between Deian and Viola, but she couldn’t scold her.

Deian was bad, but it didn’t matter. Because the two were in a match.

“I was too harsh. I thought it would be okay because my body was flexible.”

Deian laughed inside her and offered words of comfort to Viola.

Starria, who had been watching the match between the two, approached with a frown on her face.

“You! When Viola screams at her, she should have let go!”

“I was excited too.”

It wasn’t a lie. Deian was agitated when he broke Viola’s arm.

“You mean that now?”

“Staria, can you stop and go get Gran?”

Starria moved her steps with a sigh.

“Heh heh, you got hurt during the match.”

Gran said, looking at Viola who was weeping as she fell.

“Hmm, not a serious injury. Come on, it will be sore.”

Pude deudeuk.

Gran restored Viola’s arm and used her divine spell.

Deian, who was looking at Gran’s back, swallowed his saliva.

I wanted to fight him right now.

If it wasn’t for the mission, he would be pouring black magic.

I missed Deian.

Gran’s face was messed up.

‘f*ck…. I want to kill him quickly.’

Soon you will be able to fight Gran in the Trial.

The unfortunate thing is that you can’t use black magic. Still, he wanted to fight him.

Gran smiled as usual.

“You want to fight me like that? Your eyes are fierce.”

The two went through the starting match without losing.

Soon, with the attention of the classmates at a glance, the match between Gran and Deian began.
