I Became a Crazy Swordsmanship Instructor in the Game

* * *

It was the afternoon after the swordsmanship class had just ended. Lua, along with Olivia Nues and Anise Praline, were enjoying a honey-delicious break in the break room, enjoying cool black tea with lemon juice.

“Luah. You look pretty these days.”

Olivia Nues admired Lua as she looked at her. I don’t know what he did, but Lua’s skin seemed to have changed to the extent that it gave the illusion that a soft light was radiating from it.

“Actually, I felt it too. Strangely, I have good skin.”

Anise Praline, who was next to her, reached out and pinched Lua’s cheek with her fingers. It was a situation that could make her angry, but Olivia and Anise knew very well that Lua wouldn’t.

“Girl? Am I Moruge?”

As Anis pulled her cheeks, Lua asked with a muffled pronunciation.

Lua, who was somewhat relieved of the shock of breaking up with her twin sister, was an active and cute girl.

Perhaps because she looked a little younger than her peers, the female students in the swordsmanship department didn’t really see her as a competitor. Anis and Olivia, in particular, were almost like attachment dolls.

“No, there is definitely something. Didn’t you say you live with the instructor? How in the world are you so good that people can change like this in just a few months?”

As Anise let go of Lua’s cheeks and straightened her hair, Olivia helped.

“I know. Besides, how are your swordsmanship skills? I’ve been learning swordsmanship from my family since I was nine years old, but looking at it these days, Lua, you seem to be better at it than I am. Does the instructor teach you swordsmanship separately?”

“huh.”

At her friends’ question, Lua just nodded.

“If your skills improved that much, you must have trained hard until the weekend. I have to work hard too. If you want to become a knight and help the family, you have to do that.”

Olivia Nues made that pledge, clenching her fists. None of her siblings had advanced swordsmanship, so she had to become a knight and command the family’s knights.

Lua tilted her head. She couldn’t remember doing anything like training on the weekends. He was busy playing with Tania and Philip.

Even though she didn’t know the world, she had a basic sense, so she didn’t say it.

Anise crossed Lua’s arms and made a fuss.

“Wouldn’t Lua be stronger than Hailey Baroun in the future? If your skills improve as quickly as they do now.”

Then, the answer came from somewhere.

“Doesn’t that sound a bit difficult?”

Anise Praline chuckled and added.

“Ah, that’s something you don’t know. Lua didn’t know anything at first, but looking at it now, she’s like a child who learned swordsmanship from a young age… … But who just answered?”

Seeing that Lua and Olivia’s eyes were looking somewhere other than her, Anise turned her head in the direction they were looking at with a grim expression.

“… My training is not shallow enough to catch up so easily.”

There, Hailey Baroun, the heir to the Marshal of Baroun’s family, was standing with her arms propped up against the table.

“oh.”

Anise Praline hastily hid behind Olivia.

Hailey Baroun belonged to the highest class among the first year students.

Olivia Nues, the daughter of a baron, or Anise Praline, a daughter of a merchant family, would never have run into him if it hadn’t been for the academy.

The reason why the Freevia Academy recruited Felicia, a member of the prestigious Count Oswald family, as an instructor was to control a child with a high status like Hailey among the students.

Hailey Baroun smiled leisurely and looked at the three girls.

First-year students have already shown signs of forming a faction of their own.

The female students are united around Elizabeth Cormier, the daughter of the Marquis of Cormier, the owner of the western granary, and Chapley Bellinger, the son of Count Bellinger, who owns a prestigious knight order, and a swordsman called the ‘Black Lion’, Harold Brother, the son of Howlshen Brider, was dividing the power of the male students.

Hailey Baroun didn’t particularly like that group life.

No one would touch a student of that level, and he was not very interested in anything other than swordsmanship.

I just thought that students who were more focused on making friends than on improving themselves were stupid.

“… I had no intention of teasing or criticizing you. It’s just a joke between us.”

Olivia Nues said, putting a hand on Anis’s shoulder. She had no intention of hating Hailey Baroun.

“Don’t worry, I don’t get angry just because you insult me, and I know very well that that wasn’t the intention. I just interrupted because I heard my story.”

Haley smiled and waved her hand. He felt a little sympathy for girls like him who didn’t belong to any group.

“hi!”

Suddenly, Lua waved to Haley.

Haley knew Lua’s name and face. It was because he was the only first-year student who had better physical strength than him.

I could still see him running several laps ahead of the other kids with a dying face.

“Are you saying hello to me?”

At Hailey’s question, Lua tilted her head.

“Why? Can’t I say hello?”

He was surprised because commoner students usually try their best not to run into him. Hailey, who didn’t particularly want to be proud of her identity, shook her head in denial.

“Of course not. I want to say I’m glad too.”

Olivia and Anis looked at each other in amazement.

Lua, who treated the son of Baroun Marquis, who was no different from the king of the north, was amazing, and Hailey, who accepted it, was also amazing.

When Hailey accepted her greeting, Lua smiled broadly and liked it.

“Then now that we’ve said our goodbyes, let’s be friends from now on. Understand?”

Hailey Baroun flinched briefly at the full body fastball. However, there was no particular reason for refusal, so I nodded my head in a daze.

Rejecting it seemed like a campaign, and it was rather strange to say no to friends in the same grade.

“That, yes. I wish you well in the future.”

Haley, who accidentally made her first friend at the academy, looked at Lua with an absurd expression.

It was a human figure he had never seen in his 14 years of life.

* * *

‘Where am I and who am I?’

Haley Baroun thought so as she walked through the mall. It was the first time in my short life that I was walking through a shopping street with three girls.

“… .”

The expressions of Olivia Nues and Anise Praline, the girls whose names I only learned today, were very awkward. It was the exact same expression Haley was making.

“It’s so nice to come out to play with you!”

It was only Lua who was excited. As she looked around at the other children, as if asking how you were, Olivia and Anise forced themselves to nod.

“Okay, so good. Anis, are you like that too?”

“of course. I was scolded because my heart was pounding.”

It sounded like she was reading the least interesting piece of literature, but Lua nodded her head in satisfaction. Her gaze immediately turned to Haley.

“How is Haley?”

“… I am good too.”

Hailey, who couldn’t say that she was going to die because of her pride, also forced a smile and answered.

‘How the hell did this happen, Anis?’

‘I don’t know either. I don’t know why we’re here with Haley Baroun.’

The reason they came to the mall was simple. It was because Olivia’s practice bladeless sword was broken, and Anis also wanted to buy new pajamas.

Lua, who isn’t blind at all, but who can be said to be rare, asked if Hailey would go with her, and Anis and Olivia, who couldn’t openly refuse, agreed insincerely.

‘What the hell is this affinity for?’

Olivia stuck out her tongue at Lua’s affinity. Even if he awoke from the dead, he didn’t think he would be able to treat Haley, who could be called the Prince of the North, that way.

‘… … He seems like a better kid than I thought.’

Aside from being difficult to deal with due to her status, Haley’s personality didn’t look too bad. It was neither authoritative nor self-righteous.

“Where are you going? flawless point? Clothing Store?”

Lua looked at Olivia and asked. When the three got together, the leader was usually Olivia.

“Let’s stop by the Mugu store. You are closer.”

After thinking for a moment, Olivia answered. The common interest of the four children was definitely swordsmanship, so it was from the thought that this awkward atmosphere might be resolved.

Hailey trudged along with the girls towards the armor store.

“welcome. Oh, you are academy students. Are you a first-year student seeing this face for the first time?”

Upon arriving at the arms store, the owner, a man in his 40s, welcomed the students.

“hello!”

“okay. Look around slowly. The goods in our store are of good quality, and word of mouth spreads.”

“yes!”

When Lua answered cheerfully, a happy smile appeared on the owner’s face.

“I’m looking for a sword with no blades to use when training.”

“If that’s the case, it’s over there. It’s sturdy and has a good center of gravity, so you can use it until you graduate.”

As the owner said, the swords looked quite good. Olivia carefully inspected the swords on display.

“… It’s definitely fine.”

It fits well in the hand, and the center of gravity was quite well set, as the owner said. Hailey Baroun, who was watching the scene, took a deep breath as if feeling frustrated.

‘No, I don’t see the sword that way.’

Having picked up a wooden sword since he was a toddler, and a real sword since he was ten years old, he couldn’t tolerate taking a rough look at a sword like that.

“… Uhm, can I see you for a second?”

Frustration overcame awkwardness, and Haley eventually chose to interfere.

“uh… ? Oh, thank you for that. huh… .”

Olivia held out the sword she was holding to Hailey, and Hailey, who lifted it up and down several times on the spot, shook her head.

“The more you use this, the more the center of gravity will shift. It’s not that bad iron was used, but the metals didn’t mix properly, and the impurities didn’t completely disappear, probably because of the lack of craftsmanship. You may not notice it at first, but after a few shocks the tang will start to wobble.”

Hailey talking about the sword was completely different from her previous taciturn appearance. Olivia was easily convinced by that detailed and convincing explanation.

“Yeah, that’s right.”

Haley didn’t stop there and examined the other swords one by one.

“… Same goes for other things. It would be difficult to find a proper sword in a place like this. Now that this has happened, let’s go to a place I know.”

Having said that, Haley was about to leave the armor store first, but the owner of the armor store hurriedly shouted,

“No, what are you saying you know so carelessly?”

Hailey chuckled and replied.

“… Hey, at least a craftsman would know that I am not wrong.”

The owner spat out a laugh as if it were absurd.

“Look at this. 1st grade guest. Of course, the customer is not wrong, but do you know how much the unit price is to meet all the conditions the customer said? You can’t pay a few gold coins to buy a training sword. How reasonable is that a sword that costs three silver coins?”

Anise and Olivia nodded. Actually, the owner was right.

“what? Do you have no pride as a craftsman? If you are a sword maker, you should always burn your life and craftsmanship for the best work… … Why is this?”

Unable to bear it any longer, Olivia tugged on Hayley’s arm.

“Well, the owner isn’t wrong, so why don’t we stop at this point? Uncle, I’m sorry. I will come back to buy again next time. Lua, grab Hailey’s arm. It’s embarrassing, so let’s get out quickly. huh?”

Haley, who was trained as a knight, was dragged out calmly because she couldn’t bear to shake off the girls.

“So, are you saying I was wrong? I feel pretty bad if you don’t explain things properly so I understand.”

Olivia was a little frightened when Haley sighed. Anise, the daughter of the merchant, took her place.

“Um, so that’s… There are students like you who only need to think about quality, and there are students like us who have to think about price/performance. The armor store we went to is for such students.”

Anise’s explanation was quite long, and fortunately Hailey was not an idiot, so she nodded in agreement.

“… I guess I made an excuse. I’ve never been to a place like that. I’ll have to apologize next time.”

‘I’m sure he’s not a bad kid. Something is strange.’

Olivia thought so and blinked.

“You guys got into trouble too. sorry. As an apology, I’ll let you buy the sword you need.”

Hailey said that and took the lead. It was heading towards the innocence store he was looking for. Anise and Olivia looked at each other, shrugged, and started walking after him.

And the party ran into the 4th grade students there.

Among them was Bluhan Alloy, the son of Earl Earl Roy, the Western Margrave, between the Baroun and Cheolcheon enemies.

“Oh, see this? Aren’t you the Prince of the North? I’m still in first grade, so I don’t know how many people I’ve beaten already. Your skills are also very good. huh? 1st year girls, Master Hailey is so handsome, isn’t he?”
