32 – New Professor Elf (1)

“I received the report, but they said seeing it once is better than hearing a hundred words. Before entering the full-scale monster hunting class, I will simply check what level you guys are.”

“Dalian again?”

At the question of the fighting spirit of the cornet, Elfin laughed.

“Dalian, me and you? I guess my self-esteem is too high. It’s a skill check.”

Unlike me, who knew the true identity of Elfin, the other students didn’t really know how strong Elfin was.

She’s an elf, so even if that’s the case with her youthful appearance, she’s also a woman with a pretty skinny body on the outside, so she didn’t seem overbearing from the first impression.

In addition, there was a record of saying that Joseph was an imperial knight whose name was not particularly well known.

‘No matter how well-known the name is, it’s not like an imperial knight would be ignored.’

It seems that the level of the other students, especially the cornets, has risen because of Professor Perkin.

The reason why Elfin’s name wasn’t known in the first place must be because, as Justina said, she belongs to the secret organization of the imperial family, the dark department.

It was in the name of checking my skills, but somehow the atmosphere seemed to flow to discipline after the true cornet education.

‘It’s a skill check, so I’ll have to do it properly this time.’

A warrior speaks not with his mouth, but with his sword.

If I secretly approach Elfin right now or later while walking on a mountain path and confess that I am actually a Dane, how will Elfin see it?

She honestly believes and waits for reincarnation, and Justina is just her special case.

Since she was so hot-tempered, Elfin might pull out her sword and ask, “Where did she dare to pick up her private information and humiliate her deceased person?”

‘At that time, if she shows her skills as it is, Elfin will recognize her first and approach me without having to say anything.’

However, what if I did not imitate Elfin’s berserker likeness like the previous couplets, but instead showed her true abilities?

Cornette or Lou Jeff may be surprised by the change in style, but she will recognize that there is something about me as much as Elfin.

It was a kind of communication method that only warriors could communicate with each other.

“Then I’ll deal with you first, tight. Was her name Cornette?”

“Not bald! She was cut off for interfering with the battle!”

“I never said I was bald. Do you want to jump in?”

Looking at the smiling Elfin holding a branch from the ground against Cornet, I suddenly realized something.

At least in terms of provocation, the elves of 500 years ago are no different from the elves of today.

Even the subtle conceit at that time has now turned into a firm confidence thanks to having proven oneself through the years.

“Haaa!”

Cornet charged at Elfin, brandishing her ax that she had been carrying since the beginning.

He was a little more emotional than when he was against me, but his power and speed were great, probably because he was in good shape.

But with her reckless charge, the cornet fell headfirst to the ground in the blink of an eye.

“Huh?”

Cornet was not seriously injured thanks to her hard hair.

He lay face down with his head on the ground, rolling his eyes as if trying to make the best of what had just happened.

But there was nothing he could tell except that his feet in Elfin’s shoes were on top of his head like strawberries on a cake.

‘If you’re going to do that, then why are you holding the branch?’

From noble mtl dot com

Unfortunately, I couldn’t capture all of Elfin’s movements either.

Of course, the hand or arm holding the branch didn’t move at all, and I could see that he jumped forward and raised his leg, just like the cornet.

However, I didn’t see that the foot had struck the cornet’s head from above and slammed it to the ground, so I missed it momentarily.

‘By the way, it’s amazing.’

I was a bit more focused on the cornet, so I neglected the elfin, but no matter how much I did, my eyes couldn’t follow it?

Of course, the preparation process was omitted altogether, and to exaggerate it, the action phase was deleted, and only the result seemed to remain.

How much physical ability do you have to have to perform like that?

I blinked at Elfin’s abs showing off her presence between her scars under the bandages on her chest.

‘You’ve become a real monster.’

As long as Cornet was knocked to the ground with a single blow, Josef was no different.

In order to rank in the battle world, first of all, I was overwhelmingly No. 1 In terms of short-term battles, and Joseph and Cornet were on a similar level.

Joseph, who was crushed without even being able to get close to the captain of the imperial family’s dark department, putting the name of the prince to shame, slammed into the ground just like the cornet and burst into laughter.

“Next… female students?”

After defeating the two boys, Elfin’s eyes immediately turned to the female students.

Charlotte gasped and hid behind me, and Justina crossed her arms and swung her head away, showing off that she was still pouting.

As a result, the first to step forward was a female student named Guinness, a cat prisoner.

‘Did they say he was good at summoning magic?’

With blazing red hair and equally red eyes, Gwyneth approached Elfin with a large staff.

As they walked, it seemed as if they were glancing at the buttocks of Cornette and Joseph, who were still stuck on the ground and couldn’t get up, but since they were girls in their prime, I decided to pass this on.

She stood in front of the elfin, wagging her red tail.

“W-Am I going to be like that too?”

Guinness pointed at Cornet and Joseph with the tip of his staff.

Casually brushing off the soil from the soles of her shoes and preparing to kick, Elfin nodded her head as if he realized something.

“There were three recommended combat students and three recommended magic students, right?”

“Yes, I am a recommended magic student. I have an aptitude for summoning magic….”

“Is it just summoning magic? That’s good, I’m a summoning wizard too.”

“Really?”

Gwyneth’s cat ears pricked up and her tail stretched out.

It made sense, as Professor Darnay said, summoning wizards are rare.

Of course, summoning magic is not far superior to other magic, but it was rare because there were so few people with that talent.

However, the rarity is that, in other words, the number of teachers who can teach magic is significantly smaller than that of other classes.

Professor Darnay is also unfamiliar with summoning magic, so Guinness must have been earnestly wishing that the professor in charge of the special class would be someone who could teach summoning magic well.

“Which summons do you deal with? For now, the magic sword and the leopard….”

“Because I am an elf. I learned mainly from the spirits. Compared to combat, magic might be lacking, but you, no, it should be enough for you to watch and learn.”

While talking, Elfin looked at Justina and winked at her.

But Justina still pouted and looked away from her.

“I think I saw it in a book. Did you say that elves have far more aptitude for summoning magic than humans or other races…….”

“You are right. However, I had circumstances, so I couldn’t learn it in a place with authenticity, so I learned it at a wild age.”

“Yamae… yo. This?”

I saw Elfin smiling shyly and sweat on her hands.

I don’t think you’re suddenly summoning the undead just because you’re summoning a spirit.

Anyway, once you entered the imperial family, wouldn’t you at least hide that you had a great talent for black magic?

Down-!

Fortunately, when the elfin cast a spell, what came out was not a zombie or a skeleton, but a normal wind spirit.

Three or four wolf-shaped wind spirits growled at Guinness.

Even though I didn’t know much about magic, I could see that she was definitely worse than Justina or Darnay in terms of ordinary magic.

‘I don’t know if it’s black magic, but it’s different.’

Anyway, learning as a wild child without orthodoxy must have meant that he was kicked out by his own people when he was young and taught himself.

Even so, the elfin wind wolves were not very forgiving.

Looking at the simple bite and death of the flame leopards summoned by Gwyneth, it seemed that they were at least good enough to be used as support.

“Oh, I learned a lot! Thank you!”

The elfin wind wolf spirit disappeared with a flash of green light.

Gwyneth watched the whole process closely and his eyes twinkled.

Then he bowed to his belly button, bowed down, and glanced at Joseph and Cornet again, then helped Cornet with his trembling left hand outstretched and dragged him up.

“What next, Charlotte?”

Charlotte also fought hard against the Elfin spirit.

That’s also true, because the shield she had spread was only broken after the Elfin wolves had been chipping away at it for a while with her sharp teeth.

It was amazing that it didn’t get smashed at once and just endured for a little while.

However, if Elfin had used a non-magic body, he would have broken at once.

“It’s a defense magic, so if you enlist later, you’ll be pretty.”

“…… Yes?”

“A single recovery mage is a valuable battlefield, and a mage who can prevent soldiers from getting hurt will be welcomed with open arms.”

“Yeah, but the former military is, um, thanks for the advice… ….”

For some reason, Charlotte seemed more shocked by the last word she heard than her defeat in battle.

“Hmm, now it’s the original girl’s turn.”

In my own way, I was looking forward to the confrontation between Justina and Elfin.

When Elfin fought properly with her weapon, she wondered how well she would be able to fight against Justina’s colorful magic.

But on the other hand, Justina, who was using the identity of Yuzu in front of the students, and the magic students knew that an elfin, who had to deal with magic, couldn’t really fight with all its might.

“Oh, you are really strong because you are an imperial knight! It seems that the original woman’s training is still lacking, uhh….”

“Tsk.”

As expected, Justina finished her fight without spending a dime or a penny of her strength.

Elfin licked her lips with regret, but she knew there was nothing she could do, and after sending Justina in, she finally called me.

“The last one, Deneb Rehinar? I got first place in combat class. To think he defeated more than half of the class by himself… Can I look forward to it?”

“That’s too much praise.”

I stood in front of Elfin with a smirk and a sword in hand.

She was still smirking like me, looking back and forth between me and Justina.

At that time, it seemed that she was suspicious of Justina’s relationship with me because of her memory of meeting her in the mountains.

Perhaps Elfin sees me now as a boy who fell in forbidden love without even knowing Justina’s true identity.

‘Me to Justina?’

To think that Elfin is suspicious of Justina’s relationship with me, I set up a situation that makes me laugh at any moment.

But I held back her laughter and raised her sword while glaring at Elfin.

“I’ll go first.”

And so as not to end up like Cornet or Joseph, she stepped out.

Taat-

Ironically, this fight was the exact opposite of Justina’s.

A fighting method to reveal oneself, not to hide oneself.

From the start, they openly stepped on the shamanic method, becoming a shadow and slipping into the elfin gap.

“…… Uh?”

The elfin let out her groan and moved her twig, as if embarrassed.

Teeing! It must have been a weak tree branch, but even though it collided with the iron sword, it was not broken or cut and received my sword strike.

How on earth can such eccentricity be possible if the skill of handling weapons has reached a mature level?

‘No, it’s a sword tool.’

If you look closely, you can see that green black air is hovering around the branches.

If it’s a tree branch with sword energy, it won’t be strange to bounce off an ordinary iron sword.

However, I couldn’t afford to use my sword skills in sparring.

Sword energy is the flame of a sword that can be lit only when the body’s mana and physical strength are burned.

It might be useful, but I needed to save some mana because I didn’t know what would happen if I searched for demons today.

“Awesome!”

I let out a light moan and took a step back.

An elfin tree branch cutting through the space I was in a moment ago.

Normally nothing would happen if I bumped into a tree branch, but if the elfin’s sword spirit was contained, I had a feeling that my body, not the tree branch, would be cut, so I took steps to avoid it.

Next, without forcibly resisting the recoil generated by swinging the sword, take it with your whole body and rotate once.

‘Where should I aim?’

I looked over Elfin’s body with such concentration that my eyes were bloodshot.

Of course, there is no reason for me to kill an elfin, but if I want to face an elfin with my current body, I will not be able to endure it even if I fight with the determination to kill.

Usually, when assassins aim for a target, the parts they look for are the neck and heart.

However, if it is an opponent that is difficult to defeat with a single knife, rather focus on the bottom.

‘Bridge.’

If you cut off your arm, the fight will be impossible, but the opponent can escape.

Even with deep scars on the back or stomach, the possibility of escape exists.

But if the leg is cut off, at least the escape variable is blocked.

Usually, when that happens, nine out of ten people succeed in killing them.

What is one of the first things a human being learns?

There may be languages such as mothers and fathers, but the most important thing is how to walk, so for babies, it is a ‘step’.

Instinctively, it realizes that walking on two feet is advantageous to humans rather than crawling for survival.

In other words, if you lose the ability to walk, an ability you’ve had since birth, even the most monstrous warriors will be momentarily taken aback.

An assassin’s talent is not to miss the gap created by the enemy’s confusion.

Elfin didn’t show any gaps against not only Cornet and Joseph, but also magic students, even for a split second…….

– ‘When the enemy is stronger than me, I like to aim for the legs.’

Swing the sword as Dane taught Elfin.

Use the technique Dane taught Elfin.

Use the tip Dane gave to Elfin to aim for her target.

Skip 500 years, here, right now.

Bagak!

The blade aimed at Elfin’s leg is shattered.

Shards of iron fluttered and reflected Elfin’s face in the cross section.

Her face contained bewilderment, confusion, and joy.

‘Break the knife with a knee kick?!’

Without a chance to be shocked, Elfin fired a round kick at her side.

When two swords collide, a deeper story is heard through the sound of metal friction.

But I’m not sure if that works when her knee meets steel and breaks.

“…… Dane?”

Fortunately, it seemed to work.

Because Elfin called out my previous life’s name with trembling eyes.

She barely spoke, moving her quivering lips.

“No, Deneb Rehinar. Follow me for a second I have something to ask you.”

Her eyes returned intact in an instant, but the elfin dropped the branch she was holding and beckoned toward me.

I obediently got up and tried to follow her.

By the way…….

“Kuuuh uh uh… ….”

Hey, I can’t breathe because of the kick…….
