I Became an Academy Baldo User

Salon (3)

“… What is this?”

The last time I saw a white rose must have been a month ago.

Although it was still a long way from completion, the white rose, which could easily guess its solidity and strength, turned into a truly wretched one.

“What is the white rose you found?”

Otar-sama, a master craftsman who is considered to be one of the best in the kingdom as well as in the empire, who can match his skills with his skills, continued to beat the iron while talking like a scoundrel.

“… Stop joking around. You know I’m not asking because I don’t know that now.”

What I am asking now is how the white rose, which was supposed to be completed today, came to be.

Even though I wasn’t wearing it, I waited a month and couldn’t stand it when I got this result.

“I hope you don’t like it and break it, don’t you think?”

“Do I look like a potter? Break it down if you don’t like it? just… It’s complicated to explain, but let’s just say that we lost the bet and that’s what happened.”

“betting?”

No, what kind of bet did you make that resulted in the destruction of the white rose?

To be honest, I was more curious about how it happened before I got angry.

“Please explain briefly what is going on. Since your sister’s armor has become like this, I must be entitled to hear it, right?”

“… … A young man came up to me and asked me to make a reverse-edged sword.”

“Reverse-edged sword?”

When I heard the name, I could almost imagine what kind of sword it was, but if I imagined it, it was a failure that I did not know for what purpose it was made.

“What kind of sword is that?”

“It’s long to explain, but… .”

The story of a swordsman that Otar-sama told me was like a knight, but as a warrior, it was an impressive story that resonated in my heart.

How would he have felt when he, who had endured the hell of washing blood with blood for his country, threw away all his wealth and honor and went on a journey of atonement with a reverse-edged sword?

As an inexperienced person, I couldn’t even imagine.

“… Then, seeing the request for a reverse-edged sword, did that person also swear an oath of immortality?”

“No, he likes killing so much that he swears not to kill him, but he just asked me to make one because he was going to use it in battles.”

His face hardened for a moment at the absurd remarks that made him inadvertently ask, ‘Yes?’.

“… Still, did you say you would do it?”

“Yeah, because I lost the bet.”

Having said that, looking at the object at the end of Otar-sama’s gaze, it seemed that he could understand what the bet was without even hearing it.

If there is one complaint, why did I use the white rose my sister requested for such a bet?

“Then I’ll use the armor Otar-sama owns… Why is it a white rose… .”

“I’m not saying I was good at it, but if you were me, would you think such a frivolous idiot could cut a white rose?”

“… … .”

He probably didn’t think so.

Rather, like Otar-sama, he would have put his best masterpiece in front of him, telling him to cut it somewhere.

“… So what kind of person was he who counted white roses? Whatever happened, I’m more concerned about that now.”

“Crazy.”

“… Are you crazy?”

“Yeah, but the talent was real. If your sister is looking for a husband, I would recommend him.”

“… Was it that great?”

“Well… Maybe I’m just overvaluing my masterpiece by smashing it all at once. So listen to every other half of this old man.”

Having said that, Otar-sama was pounding the heated iron as he did before I came again.

After this, Otar-sama no longer listens to anyone else.

Well aware of that fact, I thought as I left the forge door.

‘He’s talented enough to say that… . I want to meet you.’

It’s a crazy thing to say, but I’m still curious.

Who is the person Otar-sama, the best potter, would recommend as the groom of the next swordsman?

*****

“What do you mean taking responsibility?!”

When he tried to bring the large wedding cake into the villa in a wagon, Victor stopped in front of him saying so.

“Literally. I’ll just give you this. Then what will you say to me?”

“Let’s just say that the delivery was delayed due to an error at the bakery! In the meantime, if you or I buy a suitable dessert!”

Even if you do, you won’t be able to avoid all eyes, but at least it’s much better than just letting it go.

But unfortunately I have no intention of doing so.

‘I didn’t like this asshole from the beginning.’

I don’t like the fact that I couldn’t even walk on such a sunny day and I was half forcibly brought to a place like this.

Why did I have to do that because a bitch with no feet and a savage weapon like a hammer was so good?

And above all, I’m not afraid of Jessica nor Jessica’s family nor the family of scoundrels who are beating Jessica’s in the hall right now.

What would they do if I ruined the exchange meeting?

Economic sanctions?

Yes, try it~ It’s a small town that doesn’t even pay for the cake I ordered yesterday, even if I add up my annual income from both towns~ There’s no damage~!

If you try to retaliate by force, it’s better.

If I could fight Jessica’s father, the strongest warrior in the vicinity of her hometown, with her feet, I would like to ruin this exchange over and over again.

The nobles under the influence of the Fongrinds will also become my enemies, but wouldn’t it be nice to have more opportunities to strike?

‘what? Wouldn’t it be better to ruin this instead?’

The benefits of ruining this boring exchange meeting.

If I go back after ruining the exchange meeting here, I will be able to walk without a circle in the cool breeze.

Besides, as long as someone ruined the exchange meeting once, there is no way I will ever be called to such a place again, so I am completely freed from the boring social world!

It’s not like I’m going to get there, but if Jessica’s father was after me, I could feed Baldo to such a strong warrior, so it was all to my advantage.

‘If there is a disadvantage, does that mean that the mother may collapse from stress?’

Hmm… To be freed from my mother’s tears and my troubles.

The two were placed on a scale and compared, but the latter prevailed by a narrow margin.

The happiness of children is also said to be the happiness of parents, so a generous mother will surely be pleased.

With that in mind, I tried to pull the cart inside, but Victor didn’t move and was still blocking my way.

“Victor what are you doing? Get out of here quickly.”

“No, you can’t get out of it! As a nobleman, I can’t just watch you sacrifice for me!”

“What kind of bullshit?”

Did Victor ever think that I was going to blame him for making this cake for him?

The result would be similar, but I had no intention of sacrificing for a man, even a man who could not use the Baldo.

“Why do I make sacrifices?”

“Well, then why are you doing that?”

“… … I am just breaking.”

Everything in this world that hinders my footsteps.

Having said that, I pushed Victor and pulled the cart into the villa.

“Gee, wait!!”

Viktor, realizing that something was wrong, finally tried to stop me, but in vain.

There’s no way the mage department can catch the knight department by running.

“stop!! Wind!!”

Thinking it would be unreasonable to catch me and dry me, Victor seemed to try to eliminate the cause of the problem by breaking the cake.

“You’re not crazy, what kind of magic do you use! Do you know how much this cake will cost?!”

“Don’t apologize! I’d rather it do less damage!!”

Since it was indoors and the purpose was not to kill, the magic power was insignificant, but it was powerful enough to destroy a cake.

If I had been alone, I would have easily avoided such low-level magic, but it was difficult to avoid because it was indoors and the cake on the cart.

‘ね! Did you miss it… !’

The box covering the cake was blown away by Victor’s wind magic, revealing the whole cake.

Now as I was sweating in the fact that there was nothing left to protect the cake, the second magic came.

“Wow!”

Having barely escaped the magic, I continued to run towards the hall where Jessica was waiting.

As he got closer to the hall, Victor’s voice, shouting to stop, got smaller and smaller, and the power of the flying magic got noticeably smaller.

Perhaps he didn’t want to inform Jessica of this commotion.

“As long as I’ve come this far, I’ve won. Give up.”

“Crazy bastard!! After this, we will all die–!! hey front!! Before!!”

“front? uh? uh?!”

As Victor said, when I looked ahead, Jessica in the hall and the nobles standing like a folding screen had come all the way up to here.

Did you come out because you wanted to do something about the little commotion that occurred earlier?

Seeing Jessica right in front of me, I hurriedly slowed down, but it became poison.

The cake flew far away due to a sudden stop reaction, and Jessica, who was just in front of her, put the cake on the authentic side.

“… … .”

Seeing Jessica covered in yellow cream, I, Victor, and the nobles around me all shut their mouths.

I was planning to overthrow this exchange, but I was a bit embarrassed when it happened like this.

“… I had that gift… Is it gone?”

After removing the cart, I moved forward and wiped the cream on Jessica’s face with my hand.

Jessica’s face, which was hidden from view by the whipped cream, had a life that was likely to kill a person at any moment.

“If you’re going to make such a scary face, you better just cover it up again.”

Saying that, I covered Jessica’s face with the whipped cream.

As I even did such a thing, the nobles who were watching shouted one by one.

“Hey, what are you doing to Young-ae!”

“You rude bastard! How can you be just a baron!”

“Come on, put your hands away!!”

When men and women alike flocked to Jessica, I retreated behind the cart.

Jessica, who was handed a handkerchief to a woman, wiped her face and glared at me with bitter eyes.

“… I will never forget this.”

“Okay. But if you think it will be difficult along the way, you can just tell your dad.”

It was not intentional, but as a result, Victor was not involved, and I was able to get out of this exchange meeting and express myself freely.

Ah, with this… .

It is the completion of a world where no one except mother is hurt.

‘I kept my mother’s promise.’

But the results were just the worst!!!
