My Ex-Girlfriend Was Appointed As the Knights Commander - Chapter 183



Abduction 1. Master and disciple

“… Yes, I listened to the recent report.”

Maxim groaned and swallowed dry saliva. It was early afternoon. Sunlight streamed in through the windows of the log cabin, casting thick shadows from the forest.

“To sum it up, you mean that the bad guy was beaten to death well, and you became a rare prostitute and bastard who monopolized the most beautiful women in the kingdom, right?”

“No, how can you come to a conclusion like that after hearing all this, Master.”

Maxim tensed his temples. Naira, who was sitting across from her with her legs crossed, looked at her only pupil with a disapproving expression. Naira’s golden hair, almost silver, hung down her arms like the bored sunlight.

“Did I say something wrong? No matter what you argue, it doesn’t change that you’ve become a prat. Even if I rip you to death, you won’t be happy.”

“Isn’t the bastard of the rare generation and the one who would be fine even if he was ripped to death, the bad guy I beat to death?”

“noisy. If the master said so, you would know that. You, you have been too talkative in my teaching since before.”

Naira banged her palm on the desk. The ringing of slender hands resting on the wooden table was like firing a cannon into Maxim’s ear. Maxim swallowed dry saliva, and Naira glared at him in an annoyed manner. Naira carefully stared at Maxim’s frowning expression, then waved her hand with a big smile.

“done. If you eat well and live well, that’s what happened. The princess you made the throne for, when is the date of the coronation ceremony?”

Maxim let out a sigh of relief.

“We plan to proceed in March.”

“Doing it in the spring is definitely a better picture. When news of the Queen’s enthronement is heard, hawks from other countries will come in droves. Will this country be okay?”

“Unless someone more vicious than that Leon Bening comes, I can’t stand it. You don’t have to worry.”

Naira snorted. worry. A fairy worried about a human country.

“Don’t be mistaken. The only thing I’m worried about is you, isn’t it about the fate of this country?”

“… That’s really exciting.”

Maxim answered in a joking tone without knowing it, but immediately shut up after receiving Naira’s sharp eyes. The relationship between a person and a person, in this case between a fairy and a person, but Naira never had a flattering word about relationships. Because Maxim knew that fact better than anyone else, and because Naira knew him, he could take it as a joke without saying anything. Naira glared at Maxim for a while, then folded her arms and buried herself in the backrest.

“It still has a cute taste. I see you don’t pry more.”

When Naira said that, Maxim frowned. The elf giggled while looking at Maxim, then let out a short sigh.

“Swordsmanship? Have you become useful?”

“It’s a bit embarrassing to say that with my own mouth, Master.”

Naira raised an eyebrow. Maxim couldn’t stop feeling foreboding when he saw that smile. Usually, the reason the teacher smiled in front of me without laughing out loud was because most of the time he was up to something.

Speaking with your own mouth, if that’s the case, then I have no choice but to see it myself.

Naira’s voice seemed to reach Maxim’s ears.

“outside.”

After uttering just one word, Nai, I stood up. Maxim looked blankly at the teacher’s back as he walked out of the living room, then shook his head and stood up. If the teacher says to do it, is there anything special? Of course, Maxim had a smile on his lips at the thought of inspecting his sword.

When he went outside, the elf was staring at Maxim while leaning on his wooden sword without changing his clothes. Crack, crack. The wooden sword bounced back and forth, comfortably supporting the naira like a rocking chair. Maxim couldn’t find any discomfort in that appearance. It was as if a cushion was attached to the end of the sack.

I don’t think that’s at the level of becoming one with the sword.

“What are you babbling about? It will take a year to come out.”

“Because I also need to prepare my mind.”

“When did you do it?”

Naira smiled and nodded. When Maxim turned his head toward it, a wooden sword like Naira’s was stuck in the ground.

“Your body is fully recovered, right?”

Watching Maxim warm up, Naira asked.

“Nope.”

“I’m sorry. Take a wooden sword.”

Maxim made an absurd expression and pulled out a wooden sword. Seeing Maxim’s silent protest, Naira narrowed her eyes.

“It was all right. Do you think I can’t see anything like that?”

“Then why did you ask if your body was fully recovered in the first place?”

“Out of courtesy.”

Naira gave an insincere reply, and she also pulled out her wooden sword. The blade of the wooden sword coming out of the ground was not stained with a speck of dust. Maxim, watching that scene, unconsciously took a jockeying ceremony. Naira erased the expression from her face and spoke in a dry voice.

“Start when you are ready.”

The joking atmosphere disappeared as if it had never existed at this moment. A cool wind, different from the winter wind, blew into the yard. Maxim adjusted his breathing. From now on, even swallowing dry saliva will become an obstacle to breathing.

Trying to find gaps is itself a waste of time. When I can attack most perfectly, when my breath is the most organized and my mana is the most concentrated. You should aim for that time.

The heart started pumping mana. As always, I couldn’t say much. Yes, it would be more correct to say that it simply emits rather than emits. That mana flows through the bloodstream. Not in a hurry, slowly. Maxim controlled the flow and accelerated. To say that it was just a competition, there were quite a few things I wanted to show the opponent in front of me.

-flowering.

From the beginning, with full force.

jump-!!

There was a sound that I couldn’t believe that it was a wooden sword colliding with a wooden sword. Naira looked at Maxim, whose eyes spilled out of light, and slightly raised the corner of her mouth. The pressure on Naira’s hand was quite strong. Perhaps, it may have already gone beyond the level of just dealing with it roughly.

“Not bad.”

Naira held the wooden sword with both hands. The balance of power that had been leaning towards Maxim was tightened in an instant. Maxim did not try to force himself here. If the balance is right, accept the natural weight and move on to the next movement.

twice, three times. As the sum increased, Naira continued to raise Maxim’s rating. It wasn’t just about focusing on the principles of the sword he had taught him. Maxim was digesting the elf’s sword by making it his own. Little by little, Maxim’s own variations were mixed with the familiar swordsmanship.

“I don’t really like it, but… .”

As it is, it wasn’t bad because it was maximal. Come to think of it, Maxim showed this kind of attitude when teaching humans swordsmanship. Learn the skill and dissolve yourself. If it had been going in the wrong direction, he would have struck a gyeong, but even Naira could not conclude that Maxim was going in the wrong direction. Reading the changing swordsmanship was quite enjoyable for Naira.

“It is always a pleasure to see a grown disciple.”

I wonder if there is still more to teach. Naira laughed and accepted Maxim’s sword. This time it was ‘high wind’. Naira responded with Maxim and Swordsman. power. Even though he didn’t use the flower, he was sparring with Maxim by drawing out the power of Naira.

blank.

As the final slash of ‘High Wind’ continued, the blades of the two wooden swords crossed and met. You must have maintained your concentration. Perhaps the words Naira muttered alone did not reach Maxim’s ears. Naira quietly relaxed in the hand holding the wooden sword.

“So far.”

The heaviness I felt in my fingertips was gone. Maxim lowered his sword with a dazed expression, like someone who had just woken up from hypnosis. All the way through, Naira read his sword. This sparring felt like hitting a flying stone with a sword. Maxim squeezed and opened his hand, still feeling the tingling sensation.

“It has grown a lot. It’s okay to go anywhere and say that it’s useful.”

At Naira’s words, Maxim frowned again.

“What kind of teacher is this Master who accepted all of that with a smile?”

“Because I have lived 300 years longer than you. It’s strange that you’re on the same level as me.”

Maxim looked at his teacher’s smile. Naira’s expression looked sad but happy. Looking at her like that, Maxim shared the proposal he had in mind.

“Master.”

Despite Maxim’s hard voice, he maintained his expression of Naira.

“What.”

“Aren’t you planning to come and live in the capital?”

Maxim’s suggestions and questions. This time Naira frowned.

“What did he eat wrong?”

“I am serious, Master.”

“What, do you need more concubines? Thank you, but I’m fine, and I can introduce you to a few other pretty pointy-eared friends. However, if you want to meet them, you will have to live in the elven forest.”

“I’m telling you this because I feel like leaving again.”

There was a hint of concern in Maxim’s voice. Naira shook her head and sneered.

“I have to leave. It’s time to go back to the forest again, and the crisis seems to have passed for the most part now.”

“… Speaking of the crisis.”

“Behemoth. human… Precisely, we tried to step in if the kingdom failed to stop him. Well, you did a great job blocking it. Thanks to that, I was able to afford to go take care of you.”

When Maxim did not answer, Naira shrugged and added.

“You won’t need my help anymore. If the fact that you were involved with me is found out, nothing good will happen to you. I must be tired to live among humans too.”

“There are many ways to hide it.”

“Don’t worry, I have a lot more to worry about besides you. I am not teaching you here because I have nothing to say.”

Maxim stopped persuading her further. That this offer was far-fetched, Maxim knew as well as Naira. Even so, the reason why I asked this was because of the fact that I couldn’t just visit the teacher when I wanted it.

“Are you coming out of the woods?”

“I don’t like being stuck at home. Occasionally, I will go out for oil. I won’t be able to call you out every time, so I’ll visit your house suddenly.”

The conversation was cut off. Maxim accepted Naira’s words, and Naira couldn’t accept it, but she smiled a little, as if the disciple’s suggestion wasn’t just unpleasant. The wind blew. Naira turned her head towards the wind.

“I can feel the weather getting warmer. Spring is just around the corner.”

Maxim nodded.

“That’s right, Master.”

“Be busy, Maxim. I thought I would get scolded if I neglected my sword training.”

“… I will keep that in mind.”

“And be happy.”

Maxim was unable to answer Naira’s words out loud. Instead of answering with a couple of nods of the head. Naira smiled and patted Maxim on the head a couple of times.

“Take a look.”

“See you next.”

The wind blew again. Unlike a little while ago, it was a strong wind. When Maxim closed his eyes from the wind, only the traces of the sword split remained at the place where the elf stood. Maxim looked blankly at the empty seat for a while, then turned his head toward the cabin where Naira was staying.

“… What are you going to do with the things left in that cabin?”

As Maxim walked to the door of the hut, a piece of paper roughly fixed with a dagger came into his field of vision. Maxim drew his dagger and picked up the paper.

‘Take care of the rest on your own.’

Is this the only note I left before leaving?

Maxim looked at the note, looked at the hut, and looked at the place where Naira left, and then burst into laughter. A sincere goodbye was also a promise to come back.

Maxim folded the note and put it in his pocket. The breath he inhaled was not that cold. As Naira said, spring was approaching before anyone knew it.
