How to Live As a Returnee Munchkin Swordsman

47 – Special training and special lecture (1)

“ … Therefore, the most important thing when firing swords is accurate movement. It is obviously important to complete the sword at high speed, but if you focus only on speed, the power of the sword itself may decrease. In the first place, if the connectivity of motion is insufficient, the speed will inevitably drop.”

Classroom 202, Hall 2 of the Swordsmanship Department of the Military Academy.

A large lecture hall that can accommodate a total of 200 people.

It was the scene where Akina Crowflin, the most popular instructor in the Faculty of Swordsmanship, gave a lecture on ＜Basic Swordsmanship and Foot Swords＞.

The lecture only takes 100 students, but the current lecture room was filled with all 100 students.

It is not simply a lecture with a high name value, but a lecture that students actually take with enthusiasm.

That was Instructor Akina’s class.

“-Then, today’s class will end here. Everyone knows that the next lecture is canceled, right?”

All the cadets nodded at Akina’s words at the end.

＜Symposium Invitation to Military Academy＞.

It is an annual event held at the military academy every year, and this year the scale has become much larger with the cooperation of the royal family.

Since this event will be held for a total of four days from next week, most of the major lectures were canceled.

“Then, finish the week well, and I hope the cadets participating in the symposium will have good results. We’ll see you next time.”

“all right!!”

“Thank you for your effort!”

“thank you!”

Akina’s lectures always end with such a loud sound.

An intense greeting that made the classroom roar.

There were so many hot-blooded cadets who were sincere in the lecture.

This was partly because Akina was so good at lecturing that everyone tried hard to learn, and because she had a beautiful appearance, she was receiving attention from male students.

She is pretty and has good proportions, but her swordsmanship skills are top-notch and her pedigree is noble.

Akina Crowfly was the closest thing to the ‘ideal instructor’ the cadets coveted.

“It’s a new story, but I think the enthusiasm of the students in the instructor’s lecture is really great.”

One of the teaching assistants who assisted her spoke out in admiration.

The teaching assistant was also an instructor who was about to become self-sufficient as a 4th-level research instructor, but he said that he still had a lot to learn, and claimed to be Akina’s assistant and remained as his successor.

Even such assistants are not one or two.

Akina selected Edgar Mullikman, a third-class instructor, as her successor this semester, which meant that all of the assistants currently assisting Akina were experienced instructors.

“It’s a good thing. However, I do not intend to give good grades only with enthusiasm. I like cadets who do well more than cadets who work hard.”

Akina speaks lightly of her thoughts in a rather blunt tone.

Talented and outstanding cadets must be raised well in the right direction.

It was one of the convictions she always preached to her teaching assistants.

“Is Instructor Nadia participating in this symposium?”

Akina, who was organizing class materials, suddenly remembered and asked, and the assistant instructor called Nadia nodded.

“I’m going to see Instructor Edgar’s special lecture. At such a large-scale event, the Faculty of Swordsmanship is hosting key lectures, and I don’t think you can miss it.”

“Excellent choice.”

When Edgar’s name was mentioned, Akina’s expression brightened noticeably.

Edgar Mulick.

He has been reborn as the most popular instructor in the Faculty of Swords after Akina, and has recently been attracting more attention through the royal operation called ‘Searching for the Escape Witch’.

From the skills of the 4th hero, which is now considered definitive, to the ability to command troops on the battlefield, to the detailed strategies that lead the battle to victory-.

Things that were only rumored to be a reality in this operation.

In particular, with the news that he lightly hunted a third-tier monster alone, his awareness among heroes was skyrocketing.

‘And he’s my replacement instructor.’

Akina had some pride in Edgar.

At the beginning of the semester, when all the instructors doubted his skills and were reluctant to become the senior instructor, he confidently raised his hand and claimed to be his senior instructor.

I recognized his serious attitude toward education early on and taught him the basics of general teaching in advance.

In addition, he served as an instructor and took charge of all necessary administrative tasks.

He was a worthy successor instructor, and he was a talented person who achieved results in proportion to what he gave.

‘… I’m proud.’

Due to Akina’s personality, she doesn’t express it actively, but deep down, she is proud and proud of Edgar.

It is fate that determines a hero’s talent, but it is ultimately the instructor who makes that talent bloom.

Only with good instructors can good cadets be born.

For Akina, who has always lived an instructor life with such thoughts in mind, the successor instructor who appeared like a comet like this was a very welcome presence.

“And I’m going to watch the Swordsmanship Faculty’s sparring. Because there is an interesting spectacle.”

“An interesting spectacle?”

“Ah, Instructor Jackson’s students and Instructor Edgar’s students applied in large numbers for this competition. Actually, it’s a little hard to cut out the cadets and call them disciples, but anyway, you can only take one swordsman class per semester.”

Basically, the choice of the course is free for the cadet.

No matter what the lecture is, whoever the instructor is, you can listen to it over and over again.

However, within the Faculty of Swordsmanship, there is an internal rule that says ‘you cannot take more than two swordsmanship classes in one semester’.

This was for the purpose of eliminating confusion in learning swordsmanship no matter how good a cadet’s understanding was.

Therefore, those who listen to Instructor Jackson’s ＜Tristan Method＞ cannot take Instructor Edgar’s ＜Balut Method＞.

At least, for this semester only.

‘Fun spectacle… but really.’

For a moment, Akina’s eyes sparkled.

The composition of the confrontation between ＜Tristan sword method＞ and ＜Balut sword method＞.

Even though they set up agents called students, it seemed like it would be a contest worth enjoying.

and at the same time.

While tidying up the classroom, Akina’s movements became busier.

“uh? Instructor Akina, where are you going?”

“Room 217.”

Faculty of Swordsmanship Building 2 Room 217 Lab.

The laboratory where Edgar Mulick, the third-class instructor, is in charge.

… She had already decided who to go to watch the tournament with.

* * *

“Whoa… .”

Lab 217 of the Faculty of Peaceful Swordsmanship.

As the symposium approached, I was working, buried in paperwork, in this place where I should have some free time.

It was to handle the administrative work that had been left behind after the ‘escape monster search operation’ was over.

The schedule ended quickly, so the class was closed for only a week, but there were still piles of things to be done.

“… ray. Too much work.”

I tried to say death for no reason, but Ray, who was next to me, was adamant.

“Be patient. Edgar-sama chose to cancel class.”

“No. Isn’t this what the royal family chose, not me?”

“The royal family made an offer, and Edgar-sama made the choice. I must have worked like a dog to pay off my debts when I was alone before, an informal self-talk… .”

“… “It’s a misunderstanding.”

when did you hear that?

Ray is also very bright.

Anyway, as she said, the purpose of participating in this operation was money.

To be precise, to earn much more money than the instructor’s salary, and to repay the money borrowed from the brothers as soon as possible.

Fortunately, although the ‘Escaped Demon Beast Search Operation’ was only half a success, it was concluded, and my performance in the process was so outstanding… The compensation given by the royal family was considerable.

“The basic reward for participating in the operation was 1 million Hale, the allowance for killing the demon beast was 2.6 million Hale, and the operation success reward was 300,000 Hale. Among them, 3.2 million Hale was used to purchase 12 tier 2 magic stones and 2 tier 3 magic stones.”

From noble mtl dot com

Ray slowly reads the report and payment receipt.

But my expression darkened when I heard that.

The content was long, but in short, it meant that the only remaining money was 700,000 Hale.

“… “Did I spend that much money?”

“Didn’t you say that you must purchase magic stones obtained through battle regardless of rank and number? They said it was necessary to absorb magic stones-.”

“… … .”

“Additionally, the magic stones I received from Count Breska, the head of the monster hunting unit, as a vanguard are 1 3rd tier magic stone and 10 2nd tier magic stones.”

There is nothing wrong with her words.

I used all the magic stones I bought in bulk for this operation and the magic stones I received as an additional reward for ＜Magic Stone Absorption＞, and thanks to this, I was able to experience a tremendous amount of magical power and body enhancement.

This was a pretty reasonable choice.

‘I’ve recovered about 80% of the state right before my return.’

With one successful large-scale operation, he was almost restored to his physical condition right before his return.

In fact, if my body gets stronger, making money will be much easier after all, so this was a natural step.

but… .

“Ray, how much money did I say I borrowed from my brothers?”

“1.8 million hales to Todd, 1.2 million hales to Jane. A total of 3 million hales.”

“… What the hell do you do to borrow so much?”

“I know you mainly used it to purchase high-ranking artifacts and top-notch magic wine.”

… What the hell is Edgar Mulick doing?

Waves, waves, and ghost stories only appear.

Even though it was an amount that could be repaid with the success of this operation, there was no choice but to purchase magic stones that could be used for ＜Magic Stone Absorption＞ because it was not an opportunity that came easily.

“By the way, the sword that Edgar-sama requested will be bestowed after the invitational symposium.”

“Ah, I heard about that.”

The sword that Count Breska requested at the end of the last one was also approved.

It is said that the royal family will award it with Sang-hoon after a week, and I was really looking forward to what kind of sword I will get.

Anyway, after finishing all the complicated process.

We were back in the lab and working as usual.

– Appearance of a new lair! What is the Witchbeast’s lair… ?

– Another success! How far will Edgar Mullique go?

– Count Calstapo Bresca, “He is a definite 4th hero.”

-‘The Knight of the Windstorm’ Edgar Mullik, conquers the beasts with speed…

Of course, when you open the newspaper, they talk nonstop about our operations.

It was natural because the operation was so important and even a new phenomenon appeared.

Thanks to this, my awareness was much higher than before, and there were many articles that praised the ‘Mullique family’ itself thanks to the activities of the three siblings.

But I couldn’t afford to care about that.

“Edgar, I think this material can be used as a third reference.”

“Well, that’s correct. do that.”

Another request for cooperation from the royal family following the escape monster search operation.

Special lecture at ＜Symposium Invitational from Military Academy＞.

Because this guy was right in front of me.

The special remuneration for this lecture was not formidable, so it was not possible to prepare for it.

… furthermore.

“Instructor! Give me special training!! I really want to win this Dalian competition!!”

“… What happened?”

“Instructor, long time no see! Lucas just came back from sparring with Kayla and feeling the wall. That’s why I blindly came to the instructor to ask for special training.”

The four hot-blooded cadets of my lecture, including Lucas Chadbell, who was in tatters.

With their visit, I was finally able to recall that there was a special event called the ‘Swordsmanship Faculty Dalian Competition’ at this symposium.

and.

Seeing that crazy scene, I raised my head and looked at the ceiling.

“… Ray, you have too much work.”

“Be patient. Edgar’s choice… ”

“This situation is not really what I chose.”
