Swordsmanship Genius at the Knight School

On the other hand, it was actually Noah who felt awkward about Tiu’s reaction.

Normally, I would have overlooked it, but Arni’s recent surprise attack made me think about this more seriously.

Tiu was conscious of Noah.

‘Then what’s teasing me?’

To find the answer, Noah began to search through his old memories.

Tiu in Noah’s memory was generally like this.

1. A person with an unusual taste.

“Tiuu, I bought this because it was new, but you should try it too.”

“huh.”

When he held out a jar full of sweets, Tiu picked one up and tossed it into his mouth.

“how is it?”

“Mmm, the syrup was put in a syringe inside the marshmallow-like exterior. good this.”

“I think the syrups inside are all different. Would you like some more?”

At that, Tiu picked up the snack without question.

‘hehehe, I’ve been caught.’

Noah was delighted inwardly at the sight of Tiu, who placed four or five cans in his hand and tasted them one by one.

‘This snack is actually a joke snack with a lot of wasabi mixed in with Kwang! Among the things you picked up, there’s also the one I checked earlier!’

Knights who consume a lot of energy by moving their bodies basically enjoy sweet things.

Thiu is a confectionery maniac who belongs to a full-fledged lover among them.

‘There’s no way you’ll just pass by when you see a new snack! If you suddenly eat something spicy with the keen senses of a knight, you’ll be in tears!’

It is difficult to play pranks on Nightray students who use their sixth sense freely.

However, no one is wary of sweets on a daily basis.

Noah was planning to play a prank on Thiu using this point.

Haeup!

‘ate!’

Tiu’s jaw stopped while chewing on the snack.

Seeing that, Noah expected a reaction to follow, but… … .

“It also tastes spicy. This is fine.”

“Why are you eating well!”

2. Do not tie your hair in waves.

“Twu, look back for a moment.”

“huh.”

Tiu gave up defenselessly without asking why.

Noah quickly approached and tied Tiu’s hair with a ribbon, just as he had seen at the store.

“Voila!”

After finishing the work, Noah held out the hand mirror he had prepared and confirmed the result.

“I remember when I saw long-haired kids practicing, they put a net on it or tied it with a string. I bought one to show on the way home.”

When the long-haired knights were arranging their hair, they had to tie it tightly so that it would not unravel even with violent movements.

Even in the midst of such a situation, it is human nature to want to wear pretty things, so there are various ways to tie and accessories.

“I don’t know if it will suit your taste, but looking at it, it looks like you use several because these are consumables anyway? So I thought it would be okay to give one as a gift, so I bought something that looked pretty to me.”

“… … Is this your taste?”

“Among the ones in the store, I thought they were pretty?”

“Hmm, that’s right… … .”

After checking here and there in the mirror, Tiu untied the ribbon and put it into his bosom.

“You don’t like it?”

“No, I like it. But I won’t use it because it gets dirty if I use it for practice.”

“If you don’t use it during practice, when will you use it?”

The ribbon, which was sold as a practice tool like a wrist band, is still enshrined in Thiu’s room like a jar of shrines.

3. Weakness under the chin.

It wasn’t long after Noah took over as the head of the dormitory, and Yuna also moved in.

Noah, as the head of the dormitory, conducted a general cleaning to check the condition of the interior of the black moon and the inventory of supplies.

“what? Oh my, look at this. There are sock puppets.”

“I remember that Roselia-senpai cleaned it up once, but why the hell did you leave it like this?”

One of the warehouses in the basement was full of costumes and props, as if a play had been performed here in the past.

Among them, Yunia found a sock puppet in the form of a tiger that she wears in her hand and acts.

“Wow, this is something I used to make and play with when I was little. Wow! Scary!”

“Oops, a cat lived here. Woo-chwi-chwi.”

When Yunia pushed a tiger doll, Noah responded by scratching the doll’s chin.

Suddenly, Tiu, who was checking the other side, reacted.

Rustle rustle!

“Tiu sister?”

“What are you doing? Unfold the curtain of aura. Is there anything over there?”

“… … .”

sudden silence.

After looking at each other with Yunia for a while, Noah shrugged and headed towards it.

As Noah approached the tent, the tent suddenly disappeared and Tiu jumped out of it.

“Ooh!”

Tiu, wearing animal ears and a tail for a beastman costume, attacked Noah.

Since he didn’t feel alive, he wondered what he was doing, so Tiu knocked Noah down and climbed on top of him.

Then he stuck out his chin.

“Okay, right?”

When I scratched it under the chin like I did with the doll, Tiu purred like a real cat and liked it.

“Since you’re nice, let’s finish cleaning and play?”

“oh.”

Tiu, who closed his eyes and enjoyed Noah’s touch, flinched at those words and ran away.

‘… … Now that I think about it, have you been openly showing off?’

I thought why he was like this, so I searched my memory and it was like this from a long time ago.

The unexpected realization made me feel something, but the story I was talking about came first.

‘Anyway, back to reality.’

“So what happened?”

At Noah’s words, Tiu, who had been distracted until then, also returned to reality.

“Oh, well. That’s what you mean.”

The concern Tiu told me was this.

“You said you found someone in your family who knows swordsmanship?”

“Rather than finding it, can it be found? I haven’t even met him yet… … .”

Although Tiu was an apostle, he was from an apostolic family with a history of its own.

However, the swordsmanship disappeared during the Great War without being properly taught, and the swordsmanship Tiu learned was half-baked.

The reason she entered Nightray was to come out into the world and find a clue to the other half.

“Did you say you were thinking of designing your swordsmanship in reverse by getting information from someone who has experienced the finished version of your swordsmanship? Wouldn’t it be nice if you found it?”

“But I haven’t met you yet.”

The situation was this.

While Noah went to the Sanctum Keep, Tiu started practicing himself as well.

Although this year’s practice was abolished due to work in the North Sea, there were other people besides Noah who started before that.

“The place I was dispatched to was the knights under Lichtenau.”

“Lichtenau?”

This is another name I hadn’t thought of, but after hearing it, I was convinced.

‘Certainly, I said that I would work hard to expand as much as the price decreased due to Bongmun, right?’

Noah’s adoptive father, Michael, had already said that he would actively work to restore the family’s fortunes.

Like Noah, Tiu was a promising prospect with no background, and he was a talent that would make most of the knights drool.

Although Noah played an active role in Night Ray last year, Tiu’s performance was also one of the best.

‘Even if it’s not that he’s close to me or Junia, he’s definitely going to keep an eye on him in Lichtenau.’

Yuna also follows Tiu as an older sister, so it wouldn’t be difficult for her to join Lichtenauer after graduation if she wanted to.

“Anyway, I heard that among the knights who retired there and returned to their hometown, there was one who was once in the same unit as my father. So I’m waiting for a call.”

“That must be disturbing.”

From noble mtl dot com.

“Originally, I was going to visit right away, but this time, the ban on going out came down.”

Fortunately, it wasn’t a bad thing.

From Tiu’s point of view, he’s nervous waiting for a call, so all his nerves are on that side all day.

“You were worried.”

“sorry.”

“Well, I’m glad if that’s the case. I hope you can find what you are looking for this time.”

“Grandpa Macbain! Grandpa’s guest!”

Thomas escorted a visitor to the village to Macbain’s house.

A small village in a snowy mountain valley.

If there were strangers coming to this village where there was nothing special, it was probably because they wanted to meet Macbain.

Macbain was a person who lived in this village long ago and left to become a knight. He retired 10 years ago on the day Thomas was born and returned to the village to live here.

Thomas was a boy who visited Macbain whenever he had free time and begged him to talk about the outside world or swordsmanship.

To Thomas, who dreams of becoming a knight, the guests who visit Macbain are like the heroes in the story.

“You are not there. Where have you been? If I say I’m absent, it’s about going to look at the freezer in winter, so I’m sure you’ll be back soon. But why did you come to see your grandfather?”

“I am not friendly with Mr. Macbain. My friend’s friend is just looking for Mr. Macbain.”

“What is that. They are just strangers.”

“that’s right. So, it can be said that what happens next depends on Mr. Macbain’s will.”

The man lowered the hood that was blocking the snow.

Not far away, I felt the aura of a person presumed to be Macbain.

“Shall we go to this side without having to wait here?”

“Whoa!”

The man beckoned, and the two of them fell into the shadows beneath their feet, just as they were standing.

The next destination is the alley where McBain, who was returning home, can be seen.

“wow! Do the knights know how to do something like this?”

“Sometimes there are knights who can do something similar, but most can’t.”

“Could it be that you were a greater article than you thought? Maybe Master Knight?”

At that, the man shook his head.

Thomas was disappointed with the answer.

“Ah, but I guess it’s not Master Knight? Grandpa Macbain always boasted that he had been on the same battlefield as Master Knight, so I was just in case.”

“I’m sorry. I’ve actually killed a Master Knight, but I’m not a Master Knight myself.”

“yes?”

While Thomas questioned, MacBain ran from a distance and hugged him, pulling him away from the man.

“You bastard! That must have been the ability of a demonic beast!”

“Did rumors of Emperor Guanghui’s declaration of war spread to such a mountain valley? But even if you know, it doesn’t make any difference.”

“Thomas! Run away right now! I will stop that man!”

“yes? yes?”

“hurry!”

Thomas, bewildered by the seriousness of Macbain, whom he had never seen before, started running towards the house.

“Stupid. There’s no way I’d let go of a guy who saw my face.”

Raise your finger and point at your opponent. Then a grip that rose from Toma’s shadow grabbed him and dragged him into the shadow.

“Thomas!”

“Don’t worry, I have no intention of killing you. It’s just changing into my faithful servant before another guest arrives.”

Macbain, a retired knight, was also sucked into the world of shadows without being able to resist the grip of darkness.

Zee Seongjae cleaned up the situation with a few flicks of his fingers and put the hood on again.

Revenge for Noah and Julius who f*cked him.

Among them, Julius, as the heir of the 8th family, needed to be cautious in his approach.

On the other hand, in the case of Noah, there was enough gap.

“Teeu wen.”

It is dangerous to approach yourself directly. But it was different when it came to people around me.

“You can’t just throw away a friend like Ma’an.”
