From Space Idiot to Professor - From Space Idiot to Professor chapter 48

48 – Duel (1)

The word favor implies many things.

It could be the attraction between two people who have just met, or it could be the bond between friends who have been friends for a long time. It could be love between family members, or it could be a strong bond between priests.

Either way, it was an ambiguous expression.

[Rustilla Kersil has a crush on you. He wants to help you as much as you helped him.]

The status window says, Rustilla has a crush on me. So, the question remains as to whose favor this is.

I decided not to think deeply. It’s not a problem I can solve. Human psychology is complex and subtle, so it cannot be judged and decided carelessly.

I spoke to Rustilla, who was rambling.

“Shall we go spar?”

“Huh? “Sparring?”

“Tomorrow’s class is drills.”

From noble mtl dot com

“Oh, you mean let’s prepare for class? Okay. If that’s the case…….”

As Rustila muttered, her face turned bright red like a ripe persimmon.

“I’ll check your posture! “Just like last time!”

Oh. If so, I am grateful. A private lesson in swordsmanship to the next sword master.

Actually, sparring with Rustilla was something I only did before passing the exam. After passing the exam, I spent most of my time reading the paper. There was not enough time to practice swordsmanship.

But I thought I shouldn’t put it off any longer.

If you continue to live like this, being a weakling, nothing will come of it.

“Miss! Are you okay? Miss!”

“Master, what will I do if you leave me behind?”

Two androids approached with frowns on their faces. Verdia was pounding, Sonia was shooting.

I felt a hint of stubbornness in the sight of Sonia approaching me at a brisk pace with her long apron half-folded.

“Sonia. “I’m going to go practice swords with Rustilla from now on.”

“Sword practice? It doesn’t matter…… Please allow me to keep an eye on you, just in case something goes wrong.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Sonia bowed her head. She indicated that she would agree. She added that it would be nice if she could just have me in her field of vision.

On the other hand, Verdia was not like that. She was a bodyguard assigned by Rustila’s parents, and was stricter than Sonia.

“No matter how much it is sparring, what are you going to do if you make a mistake and get hurt?”

Rustilla glared at Verdia. Verdia added hastily, her body shaking.

“Well, your parents will be concerned.”

“Enough with the story about mother and father. “I’m an adult now too.”

“You still have about two years left to become an adult… ….”

“I’m mature enough. You came to Stellarium too, right? You can take responsibility for your own work. “Whether I get hurt or not, I hope you don’t disturb me unless it’s to the point of death.”

Rustilla spoke with intense fighting spirit. Under the weight of her gaze, as if weighed down by her strangely shaped rocks, Verdia hardened like plaster.

I could also clearly feel her intimidation. Resolute attitude. She was the aura that Rustila, who held the title of Sword Saint, would always emit.

That is both surprising and fun. A girl with such a soft heart later becomes a cool-beauty commander who is arrogant and cool-headed.

In the novel, she died single, but if there is a happy ending here…… At that time, she will start her own family and live happily ever after.

Considering Ru Stila’s personality at that time, there is a strong possibility that her husband will be captured and saved. I don’t know who she will ask for as her husband, but I feel sorry for her even though I am truly envious of her.

I shook my head and walked away.

There are numerous playgrounds on the west side of Academia. These were called ‘stadiums’ in a more plausible term, and they also served as a kind of competition training center.

An era in which humanity’s living space has expanded to cover the entire galaxy. The dawn of a great civilization that reached 3 on the Kardashev scale. In such a world, humanity’s way of thinking has regressed rather than progressed.

One such regression is the spirit of chivalry.

The prosecutor was nothing more than a prosecutor, in fact, a knight. Be loyal to your superiors and play the role of protecting those below you.

Therefore, prosecutor was a word that encompassed both regular army soldiers and private mercenaries. And these swordsmen literally use swords as their main weapon.

This is the point of regression.

No, should I say it is a regression?

To borrow a term from physics for a moment, ether could be said to exhibit behavior similar to ‘strong force.’

So, what is strong force?

It is the strong nuclear force.

The power necessary to create an atomic bomb or hydrogen bomb. It’s a ridiculous force that makes positively charged protons stick together as if they were glued together.

The characteristics of the strong nuclear force are as follows: It is extremely powerful at close range.

Strong force only acts at a very short distance, and within that effective distance, the effect of force becomes stronger as the distance increases.

To put it simply, he is like a rubber band. If you tie two particles with a rubber band and pull them straight, a proportional force will act on the two particles, but if the distance increases beyond a certain level, they will break with a snap.

The same goes for ether.

Ether is a magical power that appears mainly in living things, and it has a physical property that the more it deviates from the source (source) beyond a certain level, the more its power drops rapidly.

That’s why I can’t use a gun.

To catch a monster or an incarnation, you have to use a plasma containing ether to kill it, but if you put ether in a gun or beam, it quickly loses its power.

But does this mean that a person can directly hold the beam and fly? This is crazy.

Because of these circumstances, soldiers of this era came to carry plasma swords rather than guns.

When you hold a sword, the spirit of chivalry comes naturally.

Unlike a black gun, its capabilities are fully revealed depending on who holds it. Even if it is the same sword, its power varies. The standards between the weak and the strong become clear, and this was true even when I was still in the learning stage.

Taaak!

A refreshing and profound sound came from my head.

Ah. I see stars.

Altaïr, Deneb, Vega. Summer triangle.

The stars corresponding to the famous constellation of the Three Stars seemed to repeat expansion and contraction. Then, someone becomes a dwarf, and someone else defects to a quasar.

Pain followed around that time.

“Kwaaa!”

It hurts. It’s no joke, I’m going to search in pain. His trembling left hand was crying out for him to put down the sword.

“Idel.”

“Oh my!”

“You must become strong.”

“Keuok!”

Rustila’s quick sword mercilessly penetrates my gaps. There was no such thing as watching. Her eyes were quite serious, like a knight who faced the question of her life or death.

After being beaten like a dog, I literally became a piece of sh*t and ended up lying on the grass field.

“Wake up.”

Rustila said quietly.

She seemed colder, colder, and even scary than ever. It didn’t seem to be the Rustilla I knew.

What? Have you awakened?

The awakening period is a little early.

Anyway, the Rustilla I know from the novel had the personality of a sharp soldier. I stood up with all my might with a willing heart.

“Your body must be able to remain healthy even when I am not around. Then, whether you encounter an incarnation like that time or a high-level monster…… “I can endure any situation without dying.”

“Rustilla, you…… ?”

“I will also become stronger in the future.”

She put down her sword and came close to me. Her fresh floral scent mixed with the smell of sweat created a strange and cloudy scent.

Rustilla said, stepping on my shadow in the blink of an eye.

“Take a good stance. “I will tell you everything I can.”

After hearing those words, I roughly took the position I felt. For your information, I have never properly learned Lu Stila’s swordsmanship other than what she taught me.

In other words, it was like amateurs teaching amateurs.

But it was okay. Proper training was something that could be learned during future training sessions.

Also, I couldn’t afford to go to PT outside of school.

If I were to pay that much money to learn swordsmanship from a complete stranger, I would pay a journal subscription fee. It was that kind of promise.

“First of all, your hands are strangely twisted. You’re not keeping what I told you last time. “It’s a clunky move that only a beginner would take.”

While I was lost in her thoughts, Lou Stilla touched my wrist. It was a very delicate touch, unlike a little while ago, when he had beaten me like I was catching a dog.

I couldn’t help but get closer to Rustila’s face as she looked at her hands behind me. Verdia saw that and shouted.

“Hey! “Get away from her!”

“That’s it, that’s it! Verdia!”

Rustila responded immediately. Before I knew it, she began to look at my center of gravity with the corners of her mouth raised.

Her hands started from her lower erector muscles and waist. Then she slowly stroked and corrected her posture.

Rustila’s hands, which were toning my lower body like an excellent masseuse, lingered on her thighs and her calves for an unusually long time.

This is where things went wrong. Should we move forward a little bit? No. You went too far. Now, back again… ….

She makes all kinds of points and plays with my leg like a toy.

“Whoa, whoa.”

The child’s breathing sounds strange.

“Hey, are you okay?”

“Ha, ha… uh? “What?”

Lou Stilla jumped up as if she had done something wrong. Even during that time, her pronunciation leaked.

Her deep blue eyes were spinning. Perhaps it’s the aftereffects of her exercise, but her entire face is red as if she has a fever. The condition didn’t look very good.

She said something.

“It’s nothing else. I’m just looking at your posture. Just posture. Because I never had strange thoughts…….”

“Lady-!!”

Verdia got angry and separated me and Rustilla.

“There is too much skinship!”

“Don’t disturb me…” ! “Now I need you to look at my body!”

“What would your parents think if they found out that you were having this much physical contact with a man outside of your family? It’s unclean! “It’s like losing one’s innocence with a bit of exaggeration!”

“Are you talking about mother and father again? I’m begging you, please don’t do it! Now I’m all grown up! And Eidel is a friend. Her friend and I can do something normal…… !”

It will spin. Since it is the 5th generation Android, I expected it to be a bit more flexible, but Verdia seems to be just as conservative as Zermel.

While the two were arguing, Sonia approached and said.

“At best, you’re just making a fuss about having your arms and legs touched.”

“Yes.”

“It’s not like we were hugged in a body-by-body manner. A common contact between close friends. That’s why I don’t understand Sonia.”

Jeobbuk. Sonia takes a step closer. My gaze returned. She captured me in her pure white eyes.

“I have a question. “Excuse me, but would it be okay if I held your arm for a moment?”

“Do whatever you want.”

I obediently gave Sonia her arm. It’s Android anyway, so you’ll end up messing with it a few times. As she is from the 5th generation, she has her own intelligence and curiosity, so it was highly likely that she made this request.

However, such expectations were slightly wrong. Sonia wrapped both of her hands around my arm, and she folded them inside.

Her legs were crossed and her arms were intertwined as if she was cutting a long cushion. Then, he slowly and leisurely rubbed my right arm.

“Hmm, ho. Hmm.”

Sonia continued to say incomprehensible exclamations. The next moment, she tilted her head and gently placed her head on my shoulder.

The sight felt so foreign that goosebumps appeared on her forearm as she was being held by Sonia. I reflexively pulled out her right arm.

“Well, what did you do?”

“…… It’s nothing.”

Sonia rewrote Kyachu Shah and added her words.

“It is just an experience of how humans feel at the level of skinship in a relationship that can be considered friends. “It’s still hard to understand.”

It is a robot, but is this a new pattern? After all, the 5th generation Android is not called innovative for nothing.

I thought that if I could defeat all foreign media in the future, I would like to major in computer engineering. I’m not sure about a doctorate, but at least a master’s degree.

But right now, I couldn’t afford to continue with these idle thoughts.

A wild Zernia has appeared!
