Chapter 22: Dalian (2)

Hmm.

Jamie lay looking up at the sky.

Even thinking about it myself, it was a really good surprise.

No matter how much I was a sword master, I thought that I would not have been able to easily cope with the sudden surprise.

But now it was Jamie lying on the floor of the wide meadow.

Isis's scornful voice could be heard above her head.

"It wasn't bad. Not bad."

She didn't draw her sword.

No, he didn't have a sword in his body in the first place.

Without any weapon, with bare hands, he easily subdued Jamie, who had been attacking him, and hung it on the floor.

He immediately covered his body with mana to prevent damage, but he didn't know that his wrist would be so easily suppressed.

"Still, it's a bit like a surprise attack~"

"Great."

Jamie sighed and got up from her seat.

Then I asked shyly.

"How did you stop it? I thought the timing was perfect."

If anyone who doesn't know sees it, it may seem like they rushed in, but the surprise attack contained a lot of psychological warfare.

I created an atmosphere that seemed like it would never be a surprise, and I slightly pulled out my hind legs to show that I wouldn't rush.

Gaze processing and breathing were perfectly adjusted.

After that, without any preparation process, they attacked at once.

"You said It wasn't bad. But that's all. Don't you think there's a very high chance of a surprise attack from the front in the first place?

"Certainly not."

No matter what kind of psychological warfare the opponent engages in, he constantly receives his or her information through the five senses.

Even so, in the end, the person who attacked takes the first attack, so the opponent's response is bound to be delayed by a beat.

If you have a similar skill, you will be hit by surprise, and if you are a stronger opponent, you will have to take some damage even if you block it.

Jamie thought that even if Isis did block it, it wouldn't completely stop it.

Anyway, the timing was great.

"Try changing your thinking."

"A change of mind?"

"The raid wasn't bad. If I had the same skill, I would have been seriously injured. However, it is a different story if the opponent is me."

"Are you flirting?"

haha. It may sound like that, but I'm not joking.

Isis spread her arms wide and took a completely defenseless posture.

Jamie wrinkled one eye, she said.

"Come back in. I will tell you what the problem was."

" Then I don't give a shit.

Jamie made the sword of Mana again and rushed to Isis.

This time it wasn't a surprise, but in his view Isis was actually defenseless.

If he approached him like this and swung his sword, it was obvious that he would cut it as it is.

Jamie, who had reached so close to Isis, fired a blow without hesitation, just like the words he had uttered.

I never thought that she was going to die.

Again, Isis laughed.

Her hands moved with great speed.

That's all Jamie saw.

'this .'

Why is the ground above my head?

I felt the strong wind messing up my clothes and hair.

A sensation that floated in your body.

Isis was turning with only her right hand slightly outstretched while holding the sword in her hand.

There was no power in her here.

'You are using my power.'

I had heard of it from my father, Earl Wellton.

'You don't have to put all your energy into using technology. Then you'll just get tired faster. The higher you become a master, the more often you use your opponent's power rather than your own. Because that side is good for saving power, and in some cases, it can do much more damage.'

The higher your level, the more likely you are to use your opponent's power rather than your own.

I was just talking about Isis.

The more you know about martial arts, the more strange it is.

Unlike magic, while using chess, sometimes it showed a magical phenomenon.

It was just that right now.

He subdues an adult man who weighs a lot because of his muscles, just by turning his wrist.

Isn't it almost telekinesis magic?

Jamie thought a lot during that brief moment of falling to the ground.

bang!

"ね!"

His back was curved like a shrimp.

I couldn't protect myself with mana this time because I was thinking about it.

Jamie's breath stopped for a moment at the dizzying pain that came out of her tears.

As he was unable to open his mouth due to pain, his azure hair fell in front of his eyes, obscuring the sun.

"Now do you understand? You were the most moving, but I was the least. You may have had the priority to attack, but I've narrowed the gap with a very small move.

"Whoa. And you use my power in reverse and hang it on the floor?"

right.

The back pain has subsided a little.

I couldn't lie down any longer, so I jumped up.

The still a little throbbing was put to sleep by spreading divine power all over the body.

Jamie brushed off the grass on his body and smiled as he turned to Isis.

"Is it fun?"

In response, Isis wanted to close her eyes and then smiled the same way.

how. Would you like to do more?"

"I'm begging you for one."

no. up to here with me It's quite amazing for what I've been training for for 5 years, but I'm still young."

then?

"Did you forget? This should be the frontier."

The frontier was full of strong forces.

* * *

Jean was in front of Jamie's house.

It was the first time I had come to him after hearing that he was a warlock.

At first, he was angry at the feeling of betrayal that he had deceived himself until now, but then he heard about the circumstances from Isis.

After some misunderstanding was cleared up, I wanted to have a serious conversation with Jamie.

So I was trying to find him last night, but somehow, there was a fight with the Hawks.

It was a sudden fight, but I decided to watch it because I thought it was a necessary process.

And when I heard that Jamie had won, I was happy inside.

I was going to visit him right away, but he must have been exhausted from the fight, so he came today.

By the way.

"The Master must have been out for a while."

Yes?

"What happened to the morning breeze?"

"I have something to talk to you about Jamie Wellton."

Jamie was not in Jamie's dormitory, but Valkyrie Princess Bena and the ancient beast Behemoth were there.

I don't know why they've been here since early in the morning, but I thought I was at the wrong time, so I decided to come back later.

Then, Bena suggested.

"You must have gone out for a walk, and you will probably be here soon. Come inside. I was still preparing a meal, but we are eating together first."

"Grand. Come in."

Anyone who sees it will know who the homeowner is.

Jin nodded his head as he touched the white mask for nothing.

"Is that so?"

It was certain that he would have to go home and be alone, so Jin did not hesitate and went into Jamie's dormitory.

And after a while, when Jamie returned home.

" What are you doing?"

"Say, save me, Jamie! This! This is uneatable food!"

"Jin, too~ Why don't you eat this delicious thing?!"

"Hey, why are you so strong?!"

"Yum yum yum yum yum."

Jin, who tries to escape after putting all the food in his mouth, Bena, who holds his waist tight and does not let go, and Behemoth who just sticks his nose in the food without paying any attention to what the two of them are doing.

"Why that ."

Isis, who was behind him, looked at Jamie who was not going in and asked, then looked inside and shut his mouth.

stop! I can't stop eating... Gagging!"

"Please look at my sincerity~"

"Yum yum yum yum yum."

Seeing the horrific sight, Jamie threw out a word.

"Pigs."

* * *

"Whew died and came alive It would have been a disaster if you hadn't come.

Because of the mask, he couldn't see his expression, but Jin was very relieved.

Perhaps the mask had been replaced recently, so it was a mask that covered the entire face.

I felt the will to not allow even the slightest amount of food.

"Jin, too. to overdo it. Did you eat Behemoth so deliciously? Right, Behemoth?"

"I want an apple."

Jamie sighed.

I don't know why he stays in his dormitory with this combination, but it seems like they had breakfast together.

I don't know what the menu was like, but I thought it was natural for Jin to do that just because of the stench that stung his nose.

So I told Bena.

"Bena, don't cook in my house from now on. No, please don't cook in front of me."

why!

"Since when have you been a cooking character?"

"I worked hard for five years ."

"I tried, but that's not enough. Let's wield the hammer harder with Philion.

Perhaps excited to have been mentioned in a long time, Filion in the form of a ring held up Bena's hand and waved it voluntarily.

"Stay still, Philion."

Bena slapped Philion with the palm of her hand.

Then Philion became quiet.

Unlike in the past, it seems that he has definitely taken the initiative from that Ego Hammer.

"And it's not enough just because Behemoth eats deliciously. This guy usually eats just about anything."

apologize. I want to eat an apple, Master."

"Go and eat."

"I see!"

Behemoth hurriedly left the dormitory, thinking that he had just said permission.

Isis looked at the back of Naga Behemoth and asked Jamie.

"Then the Behemoth could be your ?"

that's right.

Oh.

Behemoth is an ancient beast that she had planned for a thousand years ago to obtain.

I knew it was a creature closely related to the Savior, but I didn't know it was really Jamie's subordinate.

vena. you're out for a while I have something to talk to Jin."

"Can't you listen from the other side?"

"I can't because I'm going to be ashamed."

"Shit."

I thought I was going to cry, but Bena went out more than I expected.

Then, for nothing, I glared at Isis.

"Are you going to be Isis-sama?"

Well.

Jamie thought for a moment, then opened his mouth.

"He's going out with Bena too."

"Sheesh."

Isis thought it was going to pass, so he stayed still and clicked his tongue when the shouting fell.

Then I looked at Bena, and Bena was single and smiling badly for nothing.

"Why is our princess like this?"

"Isis-sama is also a princess, isn't it? Enjoy tea time with the princesses."

"Since when did Valkyrie enjoy tea time?"

"I am a new generation of Valkyrie these days."

Hearing Bena's undefeated voice, I thought that her personality had changed so boldly.

Still, it was better than being timid.

When Bena and Isis left, only Jamie and Jin were left in the house.

The two did not open their mouths first.

Jin was the first to speak.

"I heard from Isis."

"At first, I was going to talk right away, but something happened in the middle."

"I heard that he had met an old god who slept in this land. Right after that, I even got into a fight with the Hawks. So I came here today."

Well. Well, we don't have the personality to talk to each other. Sorry for hiding it. But it was not easy to say."

If it had been before I heard the truth, I might have pulled out my weapon right away.

But now that I know how important a man Jamie Welton is to the world, I have no intention of reproaching him.

Since there is a law in his position, he would not have been able to reveal such a secret.

"But I haven't heard everything from Isis either. He told me to listen to you."

"I have been with you for over a month. I know roughly what kind of personality he is."

" ."

"So I think it's okay to say it. That's why I revealed that I was a warlock on the spot."

"I did."

Jamie looked up at the ceiling for a moment and stood up.

And he introduced himself again.

"Hello again. My name is Jamie Wellton. His previous name was Diablo Volfir. A warlock who returned to this land to kill the 12 gods."

Then he reached out to Jin.

"Whoa. When I heard it with my own mouth, I was not shocked."

Jin lifted the mask and rubbed his face once, then stood up.

Then he took Jamie's hand.

I'm counting on you. It's Jin."

* * *

Jamie and Jin left the dorm after saying goodbye.

Isis was leaning against the wall of the dormitory, waiting for the two of them.

"Are you done talking?"

it's over. But what about Bena?"

"I was taken away by Pyon. Should I do pre-meal training?"

Fyon stayed in the Frontier as a substitute for the Queen of the Valkyrie clan, and was a kind of ambassador and officer.

I heard that they are currently training her while protecting Bena.

Except for the first time I saw him briefly, I had never seen him or talked to him, so I was curious about what kind of character he was.

"I'm just going back. Call me if you have work."

"Wait, wait~"

Jin, who was about to leave, was called by Isis.

"Why?"

"It was fine at the time. I'm done talking, shall we go right away?

"If it's Jin, it's not bad."

What's not bad?

Jin frowned at the sudden words of the two people under the mask.

Isis said with a smile.

"Is it some sort of touring battle?"

Behind him, Jamie began to warm up.

Jin replied with a smirk.

"That's good."
