I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes - I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes chapter 67

Leonhard’s Power

After the last goblin subjugation, we went on a few more assignments.

Except for the first assignment, Veronica followed us all the way.

She had a face that looked worried about something.

I haven’t paid much attention to it since it’s been like that since the last time I came to the dormitory.

In the meantime, the practical evaluation day was approaching day by day.

I studied swordsmanship from Leonhard as hard as I could.

I’ve invested a lot more time than I did before, so I have very little free time these days.

The practice evaluation itself is not a big problem.

Although it is not easy to watch, it is an evaluation conducted in the dark forest.

Helon Academy is said to be the best academy on the continent.

If something happens to the noble cadets, it will be quite troublesome for the academy as well.

In addition to that, Professor John Hatton, who was in charge of the practical evaluation, is also very talented, regardless of his personality.

So you don’t have to worry too much about safety.

Grades aren’t that important to me either.

I was studying swordsmanship so hard, and I wanted to receive his power before the practical evaluation.

Of course, it was entirely because of Veronica’s event.

Even though Master came to our party.

Not only do I trust her, but I also have to prepare myself.

The problem is that it took a lot longer than I expected.

In the game, I remember that I finished training in a shorter period than now and received his power.

Well, actually, when you think about it, it was quite natural.

In the first place, in the body of that talented Leo, I constantly trained as the game story told me.

So it must have ended much sooner in the original game.

‘Leo in this world believes only in his talent and doesn’t seem to practice at all.’

Of course, I also take everything that can be taken care of by Giyeon in the game.

It seems that training was harder than Leo in the original game.

In the end, the difference in the talents of Louis Wallenstein’s body could not be helped.

The fact that he had to relearn the Epsilt family’s swordsmanship from the beginning also played a part.

Anyway, for that reason, it was extremely difficult for a while.

That was the end of today.

Because today was the last time I received training from Leonhard Epsilt.

“Then, I will go.”

I said to Master, who was lying on the sofa and yawning rip.

“Huh… You’re so excited these days… Aren’t you tired?”

“Great. Anyway, this ends today.”

“Oh, that’s good news!”

“Eh? why?”

I asked her

“Oh no! Come on.”

She shudders strangely and tells me.

“Yeah, what… ”

I started pouring mana into the sword I picked up.

—

“Louis Epsilt.”

“Yes, sir.”

I am now kneeling in front of him.

Unlike his usual chatty and violent appearance.

Perhaps because it was the last day, today was Leonhard Epsilt with a rather solemn appearance.

So, in line with that, I too was quiet today without joking around or talking back.

“Among those who have come here so far, you were the first to say that they did not know my swordsmanship.”

“haha… ”

I only let out an awkward laugh.

“And again… ”

He suddenly smirks.

“Everyone was busy bowing their heads in front of me, and it was the first time for a sleazy guy like you.”

“Ahaha… ”

I have nothing to say.

In the first place, I was not a person of this world, so even the Leonhard Epsilt who founded the empire doesn’t really impress me.

Even though I was the founder of the Epsilt family, I wasn’t even the Epsilt family.

And, frankly, Leonhardt was too loud.

Anyway, I was so right that I wasn’t cheap, so maybe that’s what happened.

“Whatever… To be honest, I had a lot more fun with you than with those guys.”

“Yes?”

“No, since I’ve been stuck here for a while. The guys who come from time to time are all giving me a hard time answering yes, yes. At first, there were some guys full of ambition like you, but as time passed, only boring guys came. On the other hand, you couldn’t find the slightest respect for me, but I think it was more fun because I had someone to talk about because of it. You guys are there again after a long time… ”

Oh, here we go again.

Still, it was the last day, so I listened to him today.

Even though it seemed like his ears were going to bleed.

Leonhardt’s words continued for a long time.

Of course, the subject was also quite different from the first.

“… So, in the first place, someone should have pulled a guy and brought him in, I mean. Did you know that this boredom is incredibly hard to bear than you think? No, you must have experienced it to know. Do you know how it feels to sleep for years because you have nothing to do? Of course, if the price of trying to immortalize against the laws of the world is just boredom, it’s acceptable, but… ”

It’s the last day though.

I tried to listen as a way of descending (though fake), but somehow the story doesn’t end.

It was certainly an interesting story.

The problem is that I’ve heard that story several times.

When I first heard it, I was interested and focused.

It was much more detailed than the original game, and I was able to hear information that didn’t come out of the game.

Initially, in the original game, Leonhard Epsylt was just a tool for the growth of the protagonist.

So there was no need to go into detail about it, and it didn’t really come out in detail.

That’s why it was fun to actually hear the story from him.

only the first time you hear it.

He explains that the place where I am now is a space separated from the world.

The first time he tried immortality, he told me that he was surprised by how easy it was.

I don’t know about immortality, but I said that I succeeded in immortality.

Right away, he looked like a boy who seemed to be younger than me, so at a glance, he was successful.

Other than that, there were other successful ones like Louisa Falken.

Of course, the standard for being easy would be easy for those monsters.

Anyway.

However, as time passed, it was said that it was difficult to maintain that state.

In the first place, it was against the laws of the immortal world.

A being who broke the rules, he held on using his tremendous power.

In the end, it is said that even with its unparalleled power, it is said that the ability to go against the flow of the world has reached its limit.

When I couldn’t stand it any longer.

He pours out all of his remaining power to create a rift in space and time.

The space between them is called this place.

Therefore, as long as he exists in this space cut off from the world, he is said to be able to survive because he is not affected by the rules of the world.

Here he has been remodeling his body ever since.

It is said that he was working on repairing it again and making it a existence worthy of the rules of the world.

He is also trying to gather strength and help his descendants.

While I was thinking about the story I heard from him.

Before I knew it, Leonhardt finished the story.

Most of it has already been heard.

It was the first time I heard today that he liked me.

‘Hmm… I never thought he would think of me that way.’

I’m glad though

No, is it ironic?

“Then, now, I will hand over a portion of my power to you.”

“Hehe, finally… ”

I murmured softly.

“Thank you, Ancestor!”

“I just overheard everything you muttered.”

“oh.”

He sighed, and then a bright light began to radiate from Leonhardt.

“Accept it. Oh.”

The light was coming closer and closer to me, giving me a warm and cozy feeling.

So when I try to relax and surrender myself to the light.

“Oh, that’s true,” an ominous voice was heard for some reason.

“Be patient even if it hurts.”

“yes? sleep… ”

Fire!

“aah!”

“Don’t resist, accept it, dude!”

“Ouch! f*ck! Hot!”

—

After a while.

“Heh heh, heh heh… ”

“Ttt, what kind of girl are you screaming like?”

“No, please tell me in advance… ”

“Did you do it before?”

Asking you to tell me in advance doesn’t mean you need to warn me a second before something happens.

I barely woke up my motionless body.

“Anyway… Where can I use it?”

he nods his head

“cancer! Once you have gained strength, you should try the test!”

I raised my sword and took a position I was so used to now.

he advises me

“My strength and your mana may not be properly mixed yet. It will probably take a while for the two of them to harmonize, so try using your own strength first.”

Obviously, you know what I mean.

I am the esoteric swordsman of the Epsilt family.

It swung that first herbivore.

With the power I just received from him.

and.

“Wow!”

Whoops!

The walls of the cave explode with a loud noise.

The effect was clear, the problem.

“aah!”

It means that my body has also become shattered.

“Hmm… ”

Leonhard observes my bleeding arm.

“After all, couldn’t your body hold it? Apparently, you were the best weakling among the guys who came so far… ”

“Well, I want you to tell me in advance! And, is that the end?”

I asked, biting my lip.

“Actually, that’s… ”

Leonhardt replied with a smirk.
