Osiris (1)
113
It’s been a week since Jimmy reached the level of grade 8.
Jimmy, who was wandering here and there due to the sudden rise in status, gradually became able to use his sword stably as time passed.
When Jimmy was able to implement swordsmanship without flaws, he was immediately summoned to the Count to demonstrate swordsmanship.
The day of the trial.
The Count and his knights flocked to the training room of the Yeongjuseong Fortress, the place where the demonstration would be held.
The knights tried to clearly see Jimmy’s state with their own two eyes.
Rei also sneaked into the training room following the tails of the knights.
Mohammed faced Jimmy in the center of the training room to receive Jimmy’s sword.
Amid everyone’s attention, Jimmy drew his sword with a calm face.
Sreung!
“Whew…”
Jimmy picked his breath and slowly moved his sword laterally.
The flow leads the sword and the sword creates the flow.
The mana that was assimilated with the flow slowly flowed over the sword, then merged with each other.
Woong-
Jimmy’s swordsmanship was different in nature from the swordsmanship produced by the general Graduate.
Most sword swords condense different powerful mana airflows and spit out a burning anticipation.
Even those who were ignorant of swordsmanship had no choice but to feel terrible pressure if they encountered swordsmanship face to face.
However, Jimmy’s sword was different.
A stream of mana that had to erupt explosively and repel it was flowing peacefully like a river.
Is that really the sword?
Every article had doubts once in a while.
However, when they saw Jimmy taking the sword of Mohammed from the front, everyone shed a sigh of relief.
“Oh My God.”
Jenkinson forgot even the fact that he was guarding the Count for a moment and burst into laughter.
To be honest, I didn’t feel happy.
Layya, who was born with a talent that will go down in history, was so extraordinary from a young age that even if her skills were reversed a long time ago, it would be the same.
Faced with a level of talent that could not be reached at all, even emotions such as jealousy felt luxurious.
But it wasn’t Jimmy.
Jimmy was about the same age as Jenkinson, and his swordsmanship skill itself was far below that.
Jimmy’s natural qualities were slightly better than Jenkinson’s, but the cheap swordsmanship he had learned for a long time as a mercenary caught Jimmy’s ankle.
So Jenkinson never really imagined he would be overtaken by Jimmy.
“Huh…”
feelings of inferiority and defeat.
Jenkinson clenched and opened the hilt of his sword repeatedly, pondering how he felt.
These negative emotions were not something I could control because I wanted to control them.
However, Jenkinson blamed himself for not being comfortable and clenched his teeth to use his current emotions as fuel for improvement.
The feelings of the other knights were not so different from those of Jenkinson.
Apart from acknowledging Jimmy’s integrity, none of the knights expected to be overtaken by Jimmy.
Everyone had a taste.
The knights were immersed in the gloomy emotions of the world and reminded themselves that their devotion was lacking.
Meanwhile, Mohammed had a bitter expression on his face just like Mohammed.
Originally, when swordsmen collide, it is normal to have a riot to rip each other apart.
However, the moment Mohammed and Jimmy’s swordsman clash, only a calm echo echoed through the space.
The sensation of hitting a puddle of water ran through Mohammed’s hand.
Tuoung! Tuoung!
Mohammed and Jimmy’s sword strikes collided in the air several more times.
Because it was a demonstration of sword fighting rather than dalian, Mohammed and Jimmy hit each other’s swords in the air at the same time.
If the sword had been properly divided, Jimmy, who was far less skilled in swordsmanship than Mohammed, would have given up his back in no time.
However, Mohammed could not hide his astringent expression even though he was aware of his superiority for a long time and looked at Count Phillips.
Count Phillips was also holding his forehead with a look similar to that of Mohammed.
The fact that the Count, as a nobleman, had forgotten his body and held his forehead, meant that he was quite embarrassed.
Mohammed understood the Count’s feelings.
That’s right, Jimmy was now practicing the esoteric swordsmanship of the Phillips family, the sword of selflessness.
The count was so absurd that he ended up laughing in front of the knights.
In fact, the Phillips family’s arcane swordsmanship had nothing to do with it.
There was no special mana refining method, nor did great swordsmanship exist in the Phillips family.
Only a few texts were passed down from ancestors.
It is a phrase composed of content that catches the cloud, such as saying that you should give up your ego, and that you should give up on the flow and get away from worldly pain.
“…reach the state of selflessness through mental practice.”
Then your sword will naturally follow the flow.
I thought it was a piece of advice on how to be a member of the Phillips family, but in fact, that was the real vision.
In addition, Jimmy, an outsider who is not a member of the Count Phillips, completed the Phillips family’s arcane swordsmanship in hundreds of years without any hint.
The Count’s head was spinning.
“Stop the demonstration.”
Mohammed and Jimmy stopped moving at the Count’s command.
The Count sighed and tried to make up his mind.
Even Count Phillips had a very hot face to steal arcane swordsmanship from a mercenary-turned-dark head.
After returning most of the knights, the Count went to the parlor and sat facing Jimmy.
The Count first asked Mohammed.
“Lord Mohammed, how do you feel about experiencing Jimmy’s swordsmanship?”
“It’s not particularly powerful. However, it has a faint presence, and absorbs the shock very gently and lets it go.”
It was consistent with the characteristics of the selfless swordsmanship passed down from the ancestors.
The Earl felt a headache and looked at Jimmy with his face.
“Congratulations on breaking new ground.”
“It’s all thanks to the Count’s grace.”
Jimmy got up from his seat and got down on his knees.
The Count asked Jimmy, not smiling brightly.
“Jimmy, are you thinking of leaving the Countess?”
Graduate was able to receive a great welcome wherever he went.
Even a Graduate with poor skills could earn titles and small fiefs.
Even if Jimmy was ambitious now, it wouldn’t be incomprehensible.
However, Jimmy slowly shook his head with a somewhat liberated face.
“If you turn your eyes out of the counties and lust for the power of the world, what’s the point?”
“…?”
“Blinded by fleeting greed, I want to go against the flowing river…”
Rey interrupted Jimmy’s needlessly verbose story.
“Jimmy, I know you’re excited about getting to the top, but you’re dropping a little bit.”
“…”
Jimmy’s eyes turned to Ray.
Upon reaching liberation, Jimmy’s expression filled with love only… cracked.
“Ugh…! Ugh…!”
I was confident that I had achieved enlightenment and achieved selflessness, but the moment I saw Rey’s face, a whirlwind of anger erupted and my heart pounded.
“Okay, big, big…!!”
“Dad? Where does it hurt?”
When Rey imitated Leah’s tone, Jimmy went straight into the game.
“I told you not to call me Daddy!!”
“Jimmy, you’re right. I thought even my soul had changed.”
Stop messing around and go home and take care of your daughter (or not).
Jimmy, who shook Ray’s collar a few times, was eventually kicked out of the drawing room.
When the Count saw Jimmy’s back as usual, he was relieved in his heart.
Jimmy knew too much, but too much, to send out of the Countess.
From the actual history of the Earl of Phillips to the existence of Leah, the blood of the royal family, Jimmy knew everything.
Even that was not enough, Jimmy completed the Phillips family’s arcane swordsmanship alone.
When it comes to leaving the estate after that, the count didn’t have many options to choose from.
Fortunately, Jimmy was still Jimmy.
After brushing off his thoughts, the Count looked at Rey.
Ray straightened up and asked.
“Do you have anything to say to me?”
“…I heard a rumor.”
This time, Ray’s expression turned pale.
Mohammed, who was waiting behind the earl, coughed for nothing and went into facial expression control.
Rey pointed to her lower leg before further misunderstanding.
“If it’s a rumor about this, it’s nonsense. I’m very healthy.”
Rey spoke such a protest that my c*ck would stand up in accordance with the master’s command, but the Count still had his doubts.
“Aren’t you a swordsman who has reached the level of a graduate?”
“Yes?”
“It’s about blood flow, so it can be manipulated arbitrarily.”
“…”
The Count was right.
There is no way that Graduate, which puts the sword strength on top of the sword, cannot interfere with the blood flow in the body.
In other words, it is easy to make blood flow there and to drive it out.
In the end, the reason Ray doesn’t date women is not because he can’t stand it, but because he doesn’t like women.
“Are you interested in indigo…”
“No, Count!!”
Ray exclaimed at the absurd misunderstanding.
Mohammed, who was standing behind the Count, bit his lip to hold back his laughter.
Rey wiped her face and shook her shoulders.
“No, I like that… girl.”
“That’s so…”
Whether to like it or hate it, the Count couldn’t decide right away.
After Leah was born, three years passed without any problems.
Three years was enough time for ease to bloom in the earl’s heart.
Perhaps that kind of optimism that Leah’s identity could be hidden and lived without any problems raised her head.
The Count tried to shake off his thoughts and asked Rey.
“Please… take care of Alesia.”
The Count was still in conflict.
If the next year or two had passed peacefully, the Count would have attached Rey to Alessia without any further thought.
However, things did not go so smoothly.
*
The day was getting a little warmer.
Every time the sun got stronger, the children would gather around three or five to go to the stream and play water.
However, today, unlike usual, a large number of children were filling the stream.
About 20% of the counties’ children were invited and gathered by the river.
“aah!!”
The child suddenly jumped into the air and slid down the air and fell into the stream.
As the child got up and walked out of the river with a smile, the next child jumped into the air.
“aah!!”
with a plop!
Ray sat in the shade and looked at the children who were babbling in anticipation.
Luna was sitting next to him and quietly reading the spell book.
Rey started running Calgaride with Luna’s help last year after seeing the counties’ children getting bored because they didn’t have much to play with.
Even if it was Calgaride, it was nothing.
It was just repeating that the high spirit Kalga floated the children with the wind and then dropped them into a stream with an appropriate water level.
Kalga was working hard next to Luna while she was invisible.
Although it was invisible, Rey, the user of the space sword and detoxing power, could see Calga’s expression with a young sense of self-doubt.
[Cruckle…]
Kalgar began to growl as if to show his displeasure.
Rei slowly pulled out his sword and waved it in front of the sword.
“If you twist… you know?”
[…]
Kalgar began to faithfully serve as a ride again.
In recent years, the count has partially revealed the skills of Johana and Luna after an agreement with several people.
To the extent that everyone looks like a ‘superior’ who deserves attention at least once.
It was an arrangement in case Luna and Yohana had escaped the counties and started to gain access to the wider world and make their name known.
Because of this, he was able to openly run Calgaride against the children of the Countess, but it was purely Luna’s judgment that he entrusted Calgar with an action that could be realized even with an intermediate spirit.
In any case, the names of the magical genius Luna and the swordsman Yohana, who were too precious to be in the outskirts, were spreading around the estates around Aleum Aleum.
Yes, but few people cared about it.
“Ray, you’re here.”
Lopilen approached Rey.
Ray greeted Lopilen with a very happy face.
Because of her disguise as a ‘magic teacher’, Lorphyllen would periodically go to the Count of Osiris to teach Floria a simple magic trick before returning.
This time, it was a return after 10 days, but Lopilen didn’t even come home immediately after returning, and it seemed as if she had just come to this place.
Ray, who had moved, blinked, and Lopilen opened her mouth .
