Chapter 26
Chapter 26 - Sword Master's Visit (3)
Seoyoon was very and quite embarrassed right now.
There were several reasons for this, but the biggest reason was none other than the existence of the grandfather swordsman.
Seoyoon was thinking that the Sword Saint would come someday.
That's why today, Seoyoon decided to first reveal the existence of Seojun and build a discussion.
And this was the first time. The first thing Seoyoon approached her grandfather, Geomseong.
However, I did not expect that the swordsman would come to the academy one step ahead.
Moreover, the thought of making Seo-Jun this far...
“Seo-Jun! Are you okay?”
Seo-yoon, who managed to stop the fight between the two, approached Seo-joon.
To be more honest, the one-sided attack by the Sword Master was ripped off, but whatever.
When Seo-yoon anxiously examined Seo-jun's physical condition, the glimpse of Seo-jun's skin was full of bruises.
Fortunately, the body seemed to be moving without strain, so it didn't look like there were any broken bones.
At least, it seems that the swordsman had his circumstances.
“There's nothing wrong with it... Ugh! I can't help being sick.”
As if to prove that fact, Seo-joon trudged up from his seat.
Seo-yoon kept her mouth shut in apologetic mind, and Seo-jun asked Seo-yoon, looking at her.
“Why are you doing that?”
“really sorry. I'll explain everything. I am really, really sorry.”
The only thing Seoyoon could say to Seojun was this.
And was Seoyoon's appearance not to my liking?
“A guy can't do anything with that much.”
The Sword Saint spat out words with a displeased expression.
So Seo-jun also spat out his words.
“I am beaten by the swordsman, but what is the meaning of a man and a woman? You’re going to lose like a dog.”
“what? This guy...!”
“Huh? I want to hit you again!”
Seo-joon hurriedly hid behind Seo-yoon at the sight of the swordsman approaching, scattering grisly killing spirits.
It was because it didn't seem like it would happen again in front of her granddaughter.
That would be the case, because Seo-jun could feel the swordsman's hand weakening rapidly as soon as Seo-yoon arrived.
“You bastard...!”
As expected, the Sword Master only screamed and didn't come any closer.
However, Seoyoon, who did not know that, had no choice but to be embarrassed as she was caught between Seojun and Swordsman.
“Ah... that...”
Seoyoon was at a loss for what to do with a visibly nervous expression.
In fact, the reason Seoyoon was so flustered was that her grandfather was also her grandfather, but Seojun's share was the biggest.
He was also a grandfather to Seo-yoon himself, but to others he was a sword star.
An existence that is regarded as a hero not only by hunters but also by ordinary people.
Seoyoon's grandfather's appearance over the past years was a respected and idolized figure.
But now.
“Even if it's true, shouldn't it be correct if you know the reason?”
I swear it was the first time I'd ever seen someone do something like that against my grandfather.
Of course, as Seo-jun said, even if you were a swordsman, it was quite rude to hit someone for nothing.
However, Seoyoon knew the reason to some extent, and that's why she couldn't help but be embarrassed by this situation.
Above all, to Seoyoon, Swordsman is a grandfather and difficult to approach at the same time.
But there was nothing more stupid than just staying still.
Right now, this situation is all about yourself.

Seoyoon immediately came to her senses and looked at her grandfather, Sword Master, and said.
“Please stop it. grandfather.”
Despite Seoyoon's words, the swordsman did not regain his momentum.
However, seeing Seoyoon not backing down despite the passage of time, Swordsman looked into Seoyoon.
Then, he showed his tongue once and reaped the momentum he had scattered.
Looking at the Sword Master, Seoyoon let out a small sigh and then turned around and spoke to Seojun.
“Seojun. Let’s go to the hospital first.”
“Not to that extent. It looks like a simple bruise.”
“sorry. Seo Jun. really sorry.”
“no. Why did Seoyoon suddenly apologize...”
“I'll tell you everything later. really sorry.”
Even when Seo-jun said it was okay, Seo-yoon bowed her head and apologized to Seo-jun.
The unfamiliar appearance of Seoyoon.
Seo-jun quietly looked at Seo-yoon's face.
And only then did Seo-joon see Seo-yoon's gloomy eyes.
Seojun slightly turned his gaze to look at the swordsman who was watching this direction.
Unlike Seoyoon, her eyes were calm.
Seo-joon was able to realize what he had to do now.
To be honest, Seojun thought that the swordsman's actions were based on a pure misunderstanding.
That's why, when Seoyoon came, he was thinking of clearing up the misunderstanding and receiving an apology to some extent.
It was true that even the swordsman was rude in his actions toward Seo-jun, and the swordsman also had a reputation, so it wouldn't be a simple apology.
However, judging from the current atmosphere, it seemed that it would have to be taken out later.
“Come to think of it, I think we need to do a test. Now then, let’s go to the hospital right away.”
“Yes... Please do not worry about the treatment cost and contact me. really sorry.”
Seeing Seoyoon bowing her head once again, Seojun left the academy without hesitation.
Geomseong did not say anything while Seo-jun left the academy.
Seoyoon also did not say anything different.
Even after a long time had passed since Seo-joon disappeared from sight, the two did not open their mouths.
somber atmosphere.
“He is a suspicious person. Don't come close.”
The one who broke the silent atmosphere was none other than the Sword Saint.
In fact, Geomseong could vaguely sense that Seo-jun wasn't such a mean person.
After reaching this level with age, I was able to distinguish the smell of dogs from people.
Do you think it is often seen as a blink?
In that sense, Seo-joon, whom I just saw, was a person who exudes vigor even though he may look like a bastard.
So, despite Seojun's attitude toward Seoyoon, the swordsman closed his eyes a little.
Even so, the reason why the Sword Saint said this was because he had too many things to hide.
There are too many things that I don't know exactly.
In particular, things that were difficult for even the Sword Saint himself to grasp were rare, and the Sword Saint could not tolerate such a guy being close to Seoyoon.
“...I'm not a suspicious person.”
“What do you think you know?”
Seoyoon kept her mouth shut at the words of the swordsman, who seemed not to want to hear them.
My conversations with my grandfather were always like this.
What do you know. You don't know anything, so follow the old woman's words.
This was what Seoyoon had been hearing from the swordsman for the past 31 years.
Seoyoon's opinion was always ignored.
And Seoyoon also got used to it and seldom expressed her opinion to her grandfather.
To Seoyoon, the grandfather, no, the swordsman, was a fearsome being and always said the right thing.
Because he was a man whom many people respected and regarded as a hero.
but.
“So, get it sorted out tomorrow. What should I do, this old lady...”
“I don't like it.”
Seoyoon didn't want to listen to her grandfather's words just this time.
In fact, this wasn't the first time I'd heard this from my grandfather.
In the meantime, there were several students Seo-yoon had brought, and the grandfather had visited like this every time.
Every time, he bullied the students in this way.
Each time, the students could not endure and left, and those who managed to endure left silently, following the grandfather's advice.
And Seoyoon couldn't catch them as they left.
Because she also vaguely knew why her grandfather was doing this, that in fact, their purpose was elsewhere.
“what? Seoyoon, you are now...”
“I hate it!”
But it wasn't Seojun. Not as much as Seojun.
Actually... I'm not sure.
Seoyoon didn't know how to explain this feeling.
I just didn't want to let Seo-jun go.
Of course, the time I met Seojun was short. time in less than a month.
It wasn't that he didn't have any memories like this, and it wasn't that he had any special feelings for Seo-joon.
But when I saw Seo-joon, I felt strange for some reason.
When I first saw Seojun, I thought he was a really crazy person.
Even if the actions he did were unusual, they were too peculiar.
However, as time goes by, I get to know Seo-jun, and above all, the academy competition that took place a few days ago.
Seoyoon suddenly said.
I thought I wanted to be with a person named Seojun a little more.
When asked why, Seoyoon couldn't answer.
And I know that we can't be together forever.
If the day came when Seoyoon grabbed his ankle, then he was willing to let go without hesitation.
But it wasn't like this.
“no, I do not want! I hate it! Why should I follow my grandfather's advice? This is my academy, not my grandfather's academy!”
I don't want to leave because of someone other than me.
“It's not something to be swarming like that! I don't know about you, Seoyoon, but that guy...”
“Yes! I don't know! But what about that! I don't know, so I want to know! What the hell do I not know!”
Seoyoon continued to shout.
“I can't live under my grandfather's shadow forever! I don't even want to! Even now… even now…!”
Then burst.
“hot!”
Seoyoon was startled and opened her eyes wide.
It was because Seoyoon belatedly realized what she had done and who she was yelling at right now.
“Sorry for shouting. But this time, I won't listen to my grandfather.”
However, Seoyoon didn't change her words and went outside with those words.
“...”
Swordsman silently looked at Seoyoon’s back.
If you want to chase it, you can chase it right now. No matter how far you were, you couldn't escape your senses.
But the swordsman didn't.
Geomseong quietly looked down and looked back at what Seoyoon had just said.
‘no, I do not want! I hate it! Why should I follow my grandfather's advice? This is my academy, not my grandfather's academy!'
It was the first time.
The reason why Seoyoon shouted and expressed her intentions to this extent.
Swordsman knew right away that Seoyoon had no interest in being a Hunter.
I also knew that I wanted a normal life as an educator.
But I ignored all of that 30 years ago.
It was because of the thoughts he made with his son and wife, who had left due to a sudden dungeon break accident, and the orphaned Seoyoon.
Seoyoon had to have the strength to protect at least one of her body.
So, the swordsman taught Seoyoon strictly.
Even though he knew that Seoyoon didn't like it very much, the swordsman insisted on it, and Seoyoon faithfully followed the teachings of the swordsman.
The deepening emotional goal continued to deepen, but the Sword Master ignored it.
so a few years ago.
Even when Seoyoon came to him and said that he wanted to become an academy instructor, Geomsung was against it until the end.
However, due to the dissuading of the surroundings and the confession of Seo-yoon, who had been ignored, Sword Master finally let go of Seo-yoon.
That's how Seoyoon ended her career as a hunter and walked the path of an academy instructor.
However, it didn't work out as well as expected, and Seoyoon was suffering from that fact.
Geomseong tried to stand by, but one by one, those who tried to use Seoyoon began to appear.
The swordsman couldn't bear to ignore even that.
In the end, whenever that happened, Geomseong personally stepped forward like now, and that time was several years.
“...”
The swordsman just stared at the door Seoyoon had stormed out of.
next day.
Seo-joon, who woke up early in the morning, headed to Dream Academy today as usual.
Now that the competition is over, Seo-joon has two things to do.
It was either earning money by doing dungeon raids or taking classes for transcendentalists.
Either way, it was necessary for the present Seo-jun, and either way, he had to go to the academy, so now Seo-jun's daily routine always started at the Dream Academy.
On the way to Dream Academy, Seo-joon checked his physical condition.
Fortunately, most of the wounds inflicted by the swordsman yesterday have recovered and there is no problem now.
Well, they were just bruises in the first place, and considering the natural awakening's resilience and the improvement of the natural healing power of the floating mind, it's natural.
So, Seo-joon didn't go to the hospital yesterday and headed straight home.
Because of that, I was taken aback by the phone call asking where Seoyoon, who had come to the hospital, was, but whatever.
Seo-joon shrugged his shoulders and reiterated the circumstances of Seo-yoon that he had heard over the phone for a while yesterday.
‘I never thought there would be such a situation...'
Of course, Seoyoon didn't mean to tell Seojun everything.
However, there were things that could be known even from the circumstances he had heard, so Seo-jun could understand both Seo-yoon's feelings and why the swordsman was like that to him.
However, understanding means understanding, and Geomseong's actions toward Seo-jun were rude.
That's why Seo-joon thought of receiving an apology from Geomseong in some way.
And that was the responsibility of Geomseong, not Seoyoon.
‘Well... I don't think it's bad to keep being rude...'
Seo-joon laughed to himself.
It was also because the progress rate of the lecture had risen considerably in the sparring with the Sword Master.
< Progress rate of Merlin's lecture +7%...(7%) >
< Progress rate of Sakyamuni's lecture +0.2% (12.3%) >
Merlin almost immediately started getting 7%.
One questionable thing is that the progress rate of Xiang Yu and Chiron's lecture did not go up, but the progress rate of Shakyamuni's lecture did go up, but anyway.
It was quite a lucrative business for the price he received after receiving several hits.
Whatever the problem between the two of you, whatever it means.
It was something that had to be worked out between the two of them.
If Seo-joon intervened, it was a really useless fuss and an act that crossed the line.
So Seo-joon erased the problem from his mind and opened the door to the academy he had arrived before he knew it.
But along with the figure of the Sword Saint sitting openly in the center.
“Why are you standing so far away?”
Seo-jun had no choice but to think about the problem he had erased.
