Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 26

Joyful laughter filled the training hall.

Passers-by ran away at the sound of their laughter, and the bird sitting on the tree branch flew even further away.

“You bug!”

“Hey, do it in moderation. Then I will catch you.”

Among them, giggling and laughing.

‘You bastards.’

Mahol struggled to hold back his anger. He gritted his teeth and endured the punches of the men that made his body vibrate.

Maybe it was because I had been experiencing this pain for so long, but it didn’t really hurt.

I felt unfair and angry at experiencing this kind of behavior.

One day, they started coming and harassing him for no reason.

At first, he only verbally harassed me, but the harassment became more severe, and now he started swinging his fists openly.

“Hey, is there anyone over there?”

“what? Hey hey “Just go.”

“uh? madam. “It’s them!”

I couldn’t even ask for anyone’s help.

Because the people who bullied him were people that even the teachers couldn’t easily touch.

In a place where the majority are commoners, they rule as kings because they are the sons of nobles.

There was no one among them who could save him, a commoner with no power.

No one has offered a helping hand for three years and it still remains the same.

All he could do was grit his teeth and promise himself that he would pay for this later.

Surely that’s normal….

“It seems like this is my first time meeting you. Did you transfer to a new school? Well, that’s why it can happen like this.”

For the first time, something strange happened.

Someone approached. I tried to see his face, but I couldn’t see it because it was obscured by the crowd.

All that was visible was the legs of a man and a woman.

One of the group approached him.

They must have been annoyed by him approaching them while ignoring them.

Because so far, no one has gone against their words.

‘I guess that person is the same.’

So did others.

At first, he approached when he saw himself being bullied, but was turned back by the bullies.

And I never cared again.

And I thought it would be the same for that guy.

Crack.

It didn’t take long for that thought to change.

The sound of twisting joints.

Iljin screamed and collapsed.

“What the hell!”

Only then did the rest of the team realize that the situation was different from before.

The group hesitated and retreated, and the light that had been hidden by them was visible.

And a man turned his back on that light.

“Are you okay?”

soft voice.

I raised my head and looked at his face.

It was his first time seeing someone look at him with such concern.

“Looks like these guys are bothering you… Do you want me to help you? “If you want, I’ll take care of these guys.”

Another person, even a stranger whom I had never met before, offered me help.

Am I really trying to help? Is there some purpose? I was too tired both physically and mentally to worry about it.

I desperately needed that help now.

So I nodded.

Then he nodded as if that was enough and got up.

And the woman who was with him came and supported him.

What kind of help does it provide?

Mahol looked at his back. What if he gets caught by them like me?

Could it be that he is not harmed because of me?

Can you really help me?

All kinds of random thoughts came to mind.

Even though I asked for help.

I don’t know why he wants to help me and I don’t know if he can really help me.

Did he read my thoughts?

“Do not worry.”

The woman with him opened her mouth.

He gives Mahol that same gentle smile and tells him not to worry.

“You are a man who keeps his word.”

Mahol felt his tension relax at her words.

firm faith.

To have this faith, you have to see something like that countless times.

“He acted like he was going to attack me at any moment.”

He opened his mouth.

And Mahol felt the air becoming heavier.

Something was pressing down on my body mercilessly, as if a rock had been placed on top of it.

When he was about to suffocate, something that was weighing him down disappeared.

No, it only disappeared from him and the woman who supported him.

“Huh…!”

The men in front of the man were each holding their necks or chests in agony.

Mahol noticed that he was deliberately avoiding momentum only towards them.

Otherwise, there is no reason for the momentum that was weighing you down just now to disappear.

‘Is this possible?’

Is that possible? Is it possible to unleash and control momentum at will?

At least not among the people he met.

Especially when it comes to people who exude this much force.

So doubts arose. I didn’t know it when he was hidden by the Iljin, but the way he stood up to the Iljin was that of nobility itself.

From luxurious clothes to jewelry decorations on them.

Even the maid who looks cute and supports her.

It’s just impossible unless you’re a noble.

‘I don’t know.’

I am definitely grateful that you helped me.

Thanks to that, I was able to avoid getting hit before class started.

But it was strange for a noble to stand up to a noble.

The nobles he thinks of are those who act for their own benefit.

My head hurt.

***

After watching them run away, I turned around and looked at Mahol.

He was looking at me with eyes filled with complicated feelings.

The conflicting emotions of doubting why he helped him and being grateful for the help were clearly visible on his face.

“Let’s go get treatment.”

Because his body was covered in wounds, it was more difficult to find a healthy place.

From what I remember, the academy also has a treatment room.

If you go there, you will be able to sufficiently heal those wounds.

“…!”

But he had an unexpected reaction to my words.

His face soon stiffened and he fell away from Ellis.

Ellis also looked at him with slightly blank eyes, as if she hadn’t thought that he would escape from her support.

He stumbles immediately because he cannot receive support, but refuses support until the end.

He lowered his head while holding his left arm.

“Thank you for your help. “I will not forget this grace.”

And then he limped away from the training ground.

I was dazed for a moment when I saw him like that.

His face hardened when he heard that he was taking him to the treatment room.

That means something happened between the treatment room and there.

‘I guess I’ll just have to be satisfied with this for now.’

That’s something that needs to be looked into separately. I was satisfied that I met him today and made a good impression.

“What position he has here, how he lives… Find out everything related to him.”

“yes.”

Ellis lowered his head.

A day has passed.

After meeting Mahol, I went back to the hotel and slept right away.

When I woke up at the time I usually exercise, Ellis was waiting at the door.

Since there was a long time left before class started, I headed to the walking course I had seen yesterday.

A beautifully maintained garden with flowers and various types of trees.

If you continue along that road, you come to an empty lot.

A suitable place for moderate exercise.

“What did you ask me to find out?”

“His family…”

Walking side by side with me, she listed the information she had learned.

The first was that Mahol’s family consisted of just him and his younger brother.

His parents died when he was young, and Mahol is taking care of his younger brother as the head of the household.

That’s what I saw in the original.

“But the place they live is not good.”

Second, she told him about the lodgings where he was living.

When she said that we live in an environment that seems uninhabitable, I let out a small sigh.

Just listening to her explanation, it was a place where people were not supposed to live.

“It is said that his younger brother is usually weak. And he is currently sick…”

Details about his younger brother.

The story goes that she fell ill because she had a weak immune system and could not adapt to the environment she lived in.

No, to be honest, if you live in such a place, you are bound to get sick no matter how good your immune system is.

“…That’s it. “I think we’ll need more time for more details.”

“Okay, good job.”

Just knowing that much is amazing.

Anyone else wouldn’t be able to get that much information in less than half a day.

It will be especially difficult in a case like Mahol.

Because people around him will see what the Iljin people think and will not want to talk.

Knowing her hard work, I had no intention or reason to blame her for not finding out right away.

“Let’s go back.”

“yes.”

***

Class A-2.

A man with a muscular body spoke to me as I stood in front of him.

“From now on, you are a student and I am a teacher, so I will not treat you with respect.”

I smiled and nodded as he spoke with great nervousness.

It seems that it was difficult for him to treat me carelessly as the son of a count.

“Please.”

Hearing my words, he sighed in relief, opened the classroom door, and went inside.

Hustle and bustle.

The scenery of the van fit that description perfectly.

With so many students gathered together and talking noisily, the noise was enormous.

“quiet! Everyone take your seats!”

The teacher shouted loudly and slammed the table, and only then did the students find their seats and sit down.

And he looked at me with curious eyes as I came inside with the teacher.

And among them were a few of the Iljin I saw yesterday.

“uh? “That’s him.”

“shit. “Why did you come to my class?”

Although he told me to be quiet, I could hear him because his voice wasn’t so low.

When I stared at them, they closed their mouths and tried to avoid my gaze by turning their heads.

“A new friend came to our class today. “May everyone be welcomed well.”

The students applaud loudly at the teacher’s words.

“I’m going to introduce myself, so everyone listen quietly.”

And then the teacher looks at me.

A signal to introduce yourself.

I took a moment to organize where to start and where to speak.

And then I immediately erased my thoughts.

Hiding it doesn’t mean it’s hidden, so I decided to reveal my entire identity.

“I am Raymond Millennium. “I’ll take good care of you in the future.”

good night.

It was said well, briefly and concisely.

“Raymond Millennium? “Are you that bastard?”

“Hey, be quiet. Then I will listen.”

I’ve already heard everything.

The reaction turned out to be more intense than I expected.

The students looked at me with mysterious eyes and whispered, and some looked at me with disdain.

‘This is normal.’

He let out a small sigh.

I never thought Raymond’s atrocities would spread this far.

Maybe it’s natural.

Only the nobles know what happens at the banquet, and those who are there do not attend the academy.

So the rumor may not have gotten this far.

That means their perception of me.

That I am an incompetent idiot.

An incompetent person who was born as a child of a famous magic family and cannot use magic.

And more than anything, they would be surprised at the fact that the child of a master magician joined the swordsmanship club.

It seems like today will be a really long day.
