Chapter 54

Episode 54

The examiner couldn’t believe his eyes.

I was a cadet.

Normally, it would have been normal to tremble at the sight of a troll.

Even if you had the courage to fight back with a weapon, it was normal for you to collapse without being able to properly attack or defend yourself.

But what is he seeing now?

It was impossible for the cadet to avoid a punch that would have knocked even him out with one hit.

However, that cadet was easily taking the troll’s attack.

Should I just endure it? He even counterattacked.

No, that wasn’t what mattered now.

A blue air current that makes the cadet’s sword shine.

‘Among the academy’s cadets, none have awakened to Auror.’

Anyone could see that it was an Auror.

This cannot happen.

When I came down to the academy at the order of the auditor general, I also investigated the cadets.

The oldest is 19 years old.

It was still too early to awaken Aurors.

On average, prosecutors awaken to their Auras in their mid-twenties.

Even so, the majority of swordsmen cannot feel the aura.

It was difficult to awaken an Auror to that degree.

There was no record of any Auror awakening among the academy cadets.

There are many benefits to be gained from awakening an Auror, but there was no way a cadet who did not know this would hide his Auror awakening.

There is so much that can be gained by revealing it, but why are we hiding it?

“Captain... there’s something wrong with my eyes, right?”

Seeing the sword shining brightly, I couldn’t just say no.

‘It’s not magic.’

You can make the sword shine by using magic.

However, a swordsman’s auror and a wizard’s mana have different waves.

What I sense from the cadet is not that of a wizard.

Anyone could tell that it was the prosecutor’s auror.

In other words, Auror.

The exclusive property of knights.

That was seen in the cadet.

“I didn’t see anything wrong.”

It wasn’t an illusion.

There was nothing wrong with his eyes.

Even the captain who stopped him was looking at the cadet with a helpless smile.

To use Aurors when you’re not even 19 years old.

What’s even more surprising is that

‘He uses Auror more skillfully than most knights.’

Using Aurors did not mean that everyone became stronger.

Basically, your physical abilities increase, but if you cannot use the Aura properly, awakening the Aura will be meaningless.

Awakening an auror is difficult, but operating it is also very difficult.

Therefore, when knights awaken their aura, they work hard to use it skillfully.

Only by making that effort can you use Aurors.

however.

“....”

If you have talent, it will look like that.

Being able to use Aurors at a young age is amazing, but using Aurors is better than a veteran knight.

He increased his physical abilities by channeling auras throughout his body, and infusing auras into his sword increased its cutting power.

Additionally, his swordsmanship was so great that he never allowed a troll to attack him.

‘There is such a thing as genius.’

That was beyond the realm of genius.

It’s still like that now, and I’m even afraid of what will happen in the future.

That alone is surprising enough.

It didn’t end there.

“Sword energy...!”

I felt like I was out of breath as the aura surrounding the sword began to form the shape of the sword.

It is an auror technique that only sword experts can use.

It is absolutely impossible for a sword beginner who is just using aurors.

Some say he was crazy for awakening his Auror, but even that level was incredible.

“...What on earth is this guy doing?”

At his words, the captain rubbed his chin and muttered lowly.

“What kind of monster is this?”

***

My whole body was soaked with the blood that poured out when my head exploded.

The foreign substance mixed with brain fluid and blood made me feel dirty.

I want to go back to my dorm right now and take a shower.

“You have to score properly.”

He walked over to the test tube and pointed at the troll.

The examiners who were looking at me blankly slowly nodded.

His face was still in shock.

I ignored them and looked at the cadets behind them.

“....”

They too were looking at me blankly.

what?

Ah, it’s all annoying. Thinking, talking, and moving all became tiresome.

I want to close my eyes and sleep like this.

It felt fluffy and soft to the touch.

It was so warm and cozy that I wanted to stay in it.

But someone kept shaking my body.

I heard a faint sound that seemed to be telling me to get up.

“Ugh....”

I don’t want to get up.

I want to continue to feel the drowsy feeling I have now.

But I couldn’t because the hand kept urging me to get up.

“....”

I raised my upper body, feeling weak.

Then I rubbed my sleepy eyes and looked around.

“Are you awake?”

Ellis was seen first.

Next to her, who had strangely resentful looks in her eyes, were Selina and Mahol, who were looking at me with worried eyes.

“Hmm...”

Why are you looking at me so burdensomely?

At that time, my head started throbbing.

And then I remembered what happened before I lost consciousness.

Hunting trolls and clashing with test tubes... And even losing consciousness after meeting Ellis.

I tried to shower, but my body suddenly lost strength.

I suddenly came to my senses and looked at my hands.

The blood that had been smeared all over disappeared and clean hands were visible.

There were no foreign substances on his face or anywhere on his body, and instead he had a fragrant smell.

‘Did Ellis clean it?’

It was common for a maid to wash the body of a nobleman.

And even as Raymond, he often received help from her, so he didn’t feel much shame.

Rather, I was worried about why I lost consciousness.

I have never experienced any shock to my body.

All attacks from Orc Warriors and Trolls were ignored.

Even that was finished quickly.

In reality, I suffered no damage.

But what was the reason for the collapse?

‘rebound.’

Suddenly one thing came to mind.

The most appropriate reason why I suddenly lost consciousness.

The body could not accept the use of aurors without proper preparation.

I may not have felt it at the time because of the adrenaline, but when I got back to the hotel, I felt relaxed and all at once.

In addition, since I had assimilated with the main character, the psychological blow was also great.

Just holding on until you get back to your accommodations is amazing.

‘For some reason, my joints were sore.’

After hunting the troll, every part of my body throbbed.

At the time, I thought it was because I was attacked by a troll.

Now that I see it, many things overlapped.

“But why are you looking at me like that?”

The gazes of Selina and Ellis are burdensome.

Mahol left the room to let his brother know that I was awake.

Selina looked at me intently, then left the room and closed the door with an expression on her face that said she didn’t like something.

....

There was silence in the room where it was just me and Ellis.

She just looked at me and didn’t say anything.

Normally I would have said something to her, but the atmosphere was so heavy that I couldn’t.

How much time has passed like that?

She opened her mouth.

“You were reckless.”

“....”

“I could have died.”

If I thought I was going to die, I wouldn’t have done it... She was too serious to say that.

I waited for her to say more.

But that was the end.

Her sad expression disappeared and she returned to her original expressionless expression.

Grumble!

Unexpectedly, my stomach growled in this heavy atmosphere.

My face turned red for no reason.

“I’ll prepare some simple snacks for you.”

She slowly got up and went out.

I looked at the spot she left and scratched the back of my head.

For no reason, I remembered her sad face and felt uneasy.

“Huh...”

I exhaled lightly and got off the bed.

A day passes.

A rumor began to circulate around the Academy.

A cadet with awakened Auror caught a troll!

The rumor is.
