Became the Idiot Young Master Who Tormented the Main Character - Chapter 78
78. What Happened at the Ball (2)
Iris has been amazed by Cyan’s recent growth.
Achieving four stars at the age of sixteen.
A student who reaches 2nd rank at the age of sixteen is also treated as a divine being of the Empire. However, Xi’an is twice as…
It is not a level that can be considered as just twice. The higher the level, the harder it is to reach the next level.
‘The level of achievement of Prince Xi’an is… not divinity, but supernova.’
Up until this point, I tried not to show it. Iris herself had already reached the level of 4-star when she was 17.
But what I see before my eyes is….
A blue energy rose shallowly like a mist from his exhausted body.
It rises like a flame, then ripples and disperses into the air.
It looked like an intangible energy, but when I touched it, it felt like it would not end with just a small wound.
…full body aura.
Si-an was practicing a technique that could only be learned by reaching the 6th level.
‘However, Confucius’s realm feels like a five-star level.’
I’ve heard it before.
The ancient Vikings, who lived in the cold northern regions… I heard that thanks to their naturally monstrous bodies, they were able to use full-body auras even if they only reached level 5.
However, it was just a rumor, and Iris, who had never seen such a person before, did not easily believe it and just accepted the information.
But look ahead.
“Hey, Iris… Give me some water… My throat… … .”
“…What on earth have you done?”
Even though Xi’an was a 5-star level, he was emitting an aura from all over his body.
Iris’s dilated pupils could not be hidden even if she tried to hide her expression.
.
.
.
“-Phuha!”
“You must be very thirsty.”
After Sian emptied the contents of the water jug Iris had brought, she felt refreshed and stretched her shoulders from side to side.
Sian, who had been suffering from dehydration until just now.
It was a natural symptom because a huge amount of water was consumed in the body to artificially open the blocked blood.
“thank you.”
“… Have you entered the 5th star?”
“yes.”
Iris thought to herself at the sight of Cyan’s indifferent appearance.
As expected, the potential he had seen in the dukedom a few months ago was not in vain.
He achieved the unprecedented act of self-healing and entered the 5th level just before he turned sixteen.
A man who had accomplished countless feats. Perhaps… he could be called a genius with the sword.
‘That kind of man’s teacher.’
Iris burst into laughter. After not taking on any disciples for a long time, her first disciple was this man. Life is something you never know.
‘Perhaps, we will be able to witness the birth of a great swordsman.’
Iris asked Cian, who seemed to have recovered quickly.
“Would you like to try it?”
“Is it a test?”
“Yes, come and compete with me. I’m sure your body will be tense because you’ve entered a new realm.”
“… … .”
That was the point.
It’s also deep in the mountains, so there’s no damage to the academy.
Si-an smiles awkwardly and nods.
“If you could do that, I would appreciate it.”
“Haha… I guess I can’t be so lenient anymore.”
The two faced each other from a distance as they had promised.
And he pulled out his sword from its scabbard. The two of them were pointing their swords at each other. At that moment, the atmosphere between the two of them changed.
Cyan chuckles and jokes.
“Iris-sama. I also just rushed in, so it might be hard for me to control my strength. Be prepared.”
“How ridiculous. Even if he is a five-star warrior, Your Majesty, do not look down on a rookie sword master who has just entered the ranks.”
With those words, they ran towards each other.
The two disappeared from sight so quickly that it was difficult for an ordinary drone to even follow them.
-Kang!
The two reappeared in sight only after their swords clashed.
Iris and Cian were competing in strength.
“It’s a pretty fierce attack.”
“Thank you for the compliment, Iris.”
“but-“
As their swords clash, Iris’s eyes glow azure blue.
and.
-Thud!
-oooh… .
The elastic muscles of her entire body radiated tremendous energy, making the air around her heavy.
It was the aftereffect of the body being strengthened due to the activation of magical power.
“It has to be at this level to be considered reinforcement.”
The two swords that were pointed at each other tightly are tilted to one side. They are increasingly leaning towards Xi’an.
For a moment, Si-an thought.
‘As expected from Lady Iris, that wasn’t even an enhanced attack just now.’
As expected, the title of Sword Master wasn’t something he earned for free.
‘But I am not easy either.’
SMALL SMALL.
A blue aura rises from Cyan’s body along with the aura, as if flames are rising.
A pure 5-star aura. He used full-body aura.
Kwakwakwakwakwa!
The two swords tilt towards Iris again.
“-!”
Iris used full body aura with Cyan before the sword was shattered.
The surrounding area was disturbed by the aftermath of the two. The air flow was rough and the wind blew irregularly.
The ground they are standing on is shaking.
The mound of dirt caved in and mixed with the wind in the atmosphere, forming a sandstorm.
The nearby weeds are uprooted and blown away somewhere, and even the surrounding trees are trembling.
When Iris used Full Body Aura, Cyan, who was once again weakened, jumped forward and gained some distance. And.
“Let’s go, Iris!”
He swung the sword that was emitting a long aura straight in an honest line.
-Squat!
Sword spirit.
Following the trajectory of the horizontal slash swung by Cian, a long, violent blue sword energy filled with aura flies towards Iris.
“Indeed, this attack would be difficult to withstand for an ordinary unmanned unit.”
Iris, with calm eyes, grips her sword tightly with both hands.
And he swings his sword and shouts.
“…Usually when it’s unmanned!”
Iris lightly swung her sword so that it was perpendicular to the flying Cyan sword energy.
-Squeak!
The split cyan sword energy narrowly avoids Iris and flies backwards.
-Tukwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
The sword energy collided with the bare ground.
The trees, rocks, and everything else in the forest that was attached to the ground were destroyed indiscriminately, in the shape of a single-character sword split in half, leaving behind a catastrophic sight.
Cyan swallowed hard and chuckled.
It seemed like the duel was about to begin.
***
“Aria, Aitsit-terut!”
“Louder! I’m too weak!”
“Aight-shitterut!!”
“Louder!”
“Aria!!! Aitsitterut!!!”
“That’s it!”
Verdi was practicing his voice with his butler Alberto in a practice room he had rented entirely.
After showing off her dance moves at the ball, she was sending out a line to approach.
Verdi, who danced hard and had a sore throat, is panting and struggling.
Then the butler Alberto handed him a towel and said.
“Verdi, it’s perfect. Let’s just keep going like this.”
“Heh heh… Alberto, are you sure…?”
“It’s true. It was an approach that touched every woman’s heart.”
“That’s fortunate… .”
There are three days left until next week’s ball.
Verdi was preparing an ambitious approach.
Verdi recalled once again while drinking water. The appearance of the aria he had encountered for the first time.
He tilted his head and looked at himself bluntly, but the eyes inside him were so beautiful that they couldn’t be compared to all the jewels in the world.
A small, slender face, and those distinct facial features… .
Even without makeup, she stood out and shone beautifully.
And above all else.
“Gulp… .”
Verdi gulped with a lustful expression.
And Verdi stood up.
It was to practice the dance of courtship again.
For an aria that would be somewhere, Verdi took another step.
***
After the duel with Iris, Cian went down the mountain, completely battered.
Although my body was not in good shape, I had a huge harvest.
‘I got a feel for controlling the aura.’
It was a lesson that he would not have learned on his own if it had not been for the experience of actual combat. Cian felt infinite gratitude for Iris’ guidance.
As I was walking down the mountain behind the building, absorbed in my thoughts about the training, I arrived at the academy without even realizing it.
I felt like I needed to wash up because my clothes were dirty and covered in sweat.
“Huh? Cyan-!”
“Mr. Xi’an? Why are your clothes…?”
“…Why do you guys meet each other so often lately? No, it’s only natural since we’re inside the Academy.”
While walking, Cian met Lucy and Aria and raised his hand with difficulty to express his joy.
“Your clothes are a mess. Have you been training or something?”
“okay.”
“I wish I had done some serious training… Ah! More importantly, we just met at a good time, Mr. Xian!”
“… … ?”
Lucy said with serious eyes, her hands clasped neatly behind her waist.
“Who are you partnering with at this ball?”
“ball?”
“Oh, Lucy! I was going to speak first…!”
“Haha, whoever speaks first is the owner.”
Listening to their words, I briefly recall that there was definitely an event called a ball.
‘The ball was a favor event with no rewards, so I always did it half-heartedly.’
Things are different now. This is reality.
Even though Si-an didn’t really want a partner, if he went to the ball without one, he would feel embarrassed and ashamed.
Cyan said to Lucy.
“There isn’t, why?”
“I knew it. It seems like you haven’t been hanging out with that person you always hang out with lately… Ahem, Mr. Sian. If it’s okay with you, wouldn’t you be my partner?”
“…Cain?”
“Cain shouldn’t be partnered with Ellis! That Cain guy… he’s been acting strange lately! He doesn’t even talk to us much!”
“… … .”
They become partners without much talk or promise… .
Sian suddenly thought of Hedy. Will she find a partner for the ball? Where is she and what is she doing now?
He was thinking of another woman while looking at the two women in front of him. Thinking about it, Si-an was at a loss. Did he ever expect that his situation would turn out like this?
“Xian, pair up with me. I don’t know any men around here.”
“Aria! Aria is gone because she kicked away all the men who approached her!”
“Who would be interested in a man weaker than me? Besides, Lucy doesn’t even look at men who approach her.”
“That’s… Eight! Anyway, Mr. Cian, who will you choose?”
“huh?”
Lucy and Aria both turn their faces towards Cian at the same time.
“Choose, Cyan. Who will you partner with?”
“Of course it would be me. You knew me before Aria.”
“Lucy! It’s only going to be a few days!”
“… … .”
Si-an sighs and puts his hand on his chin, thinking deeply.
At that sight, they stared at Cian with their mouths wide open without even blinking.
Si-an snickered at their antics.
He soon opened his mouth.
“… My answer is-”
