Swordmaster of the Red Light District - Swordmaster of the Red Light District chapter 232

Aegis (6)

232

“Did you say ‘Dude’ came out among the 3rd grade cadets?”

The dormitory where the second-class cadets were staying became noisy.

Upon hearing the news of the release of ‘Dragon Geek’, nearly 20 cadets gathered in a wide hallway at once.

The word ‘dumpling’ literally refers to the person who made the holy sword rattle.

Even if he couldn’t draw the holy sword right away, making the holy sword rattle meant that he had the potential to become the master of the holy sword in the future.

There were several other groups who were allowed to hold the holy sword, including the Aegis cadets, but there were very few who made the holy sword rattle at the time.

If he was among the 3rd-grade cadets, he would be the youngest among the geeks at the time.

“So, who exactly is the rookie?”

“Uh… I heard you’re the chief of the rider this time?”

“Chief? Isn’t he a commoner?”

“Maybe it’s a commoner?”

“Ah, why are you a commoner-!”

When one of the nobles of the second-class cadets screamed, the cadets around them giggled.

“What will our nobleman do if his belly is full?”

A giggle erupted again.

We were able to laugh at jokes like this as we looked at each other face-to-face for three years.

No matter what his heart is, while jokes and other jokes continued, a second-class cadet abruptly opened his mouth.

“There were rumors that… the ‘broken straight sword’ pulled out the holy sword halfway and then put it back in again?”

Some of the cadets, who couldn’t smile and were in love, also laughed because it was ridiculous.

To pull out the holy sword halfway and then push it back in… What the hell is that nonsense?

“Hey, is it a broken straight sword or something, he’s been carrying strange rumors since last time?”

“Still, he has a kind attitude. Either when he catches the number of cases later, or at least once.”

“Hey… But, as expected, where are the unusual ones who take off their pants?”

Laughter erupted again.

In Aegis’s principal’s office.

Nelson, who had been alone with the principal, Carmin, immediately questioned.

“At least in my eyes, it looked like it was pushing what was pulled out.”

Nelson pretended to move his body and thrust his sword into the floor.

Nelson, who was usually gentle, was beckoning and waving in the air, which was quite funny.

But Nelson was serious, and Carmin couldn’t laugh either.

Nelson pretended to insert the sword a few more times, then asked again.

“What the hell are you doing? Didn’t you say you caused a problem in the entrance exam?”

It wasn’t normal for me to just convince myself, ‘You’re crazy,’ and pass it on.

I wasn’t sure if the holy sword was really pulled out and pushed in, but it was true that the holy sword was pulled out by half anyway.

Among the commonly referred to as ‘dumplings’, no one drew that much of a holy sword.

Moreover, the momentum that Ray showed briefly at the time was far above the average expert level.

By no means an ordinary cadet, Nelson wanted to know exactly Rey’s identity in order to properly fulfill his teaching post.

Carmin sighed and opened her mouth.

“Your Majesty the Emperor…”

“…”

“I ordered you to treat me like a normal cadet.”

Nelson closed his eyes tightly and opened them.

“Are you Huangming?”

“I am Hwang Myung.”

This time, Nelson sighed deeply.

I couldn’t even imagine what a cadet named ‘Ray’ was thinking about making a fuss in Aegis.

If it’s a secret agent, why are you acting like a secret agent, or pretending to be a cadet in all sorts of incidents?

Nelson nodded, feeling the headache coming.

“Okay. We’ll see.”

It was the law that had to be black.

The 3rd grade cadets who had once held the holy sword returned to the dormitory.

Since it was the first day of admission, there were no additional schedules.

The day went by as I listened to Nelson and other instructors about things to be careful about living in Aegis.

As the sky darkened, the 3rd-grade cadets went into their respective rooms after completing their identification.

Inside the room, Aaron looked up and asked.

“Uh… are you going to turn off the lights?”

“Yeah, turn off the lights. And why do you say respect between your classmates? Take it easy, take it easy.”

“…”

Aaron had a lot to say.

In my mind, I wanted to ask what the f*ck are you doing, but for the first time, I noticed something and listened to what Ray had to say.

Click!

Aaron pressed the button on the wall with a timid hand.

The light from the ceiling went out, and darkness came into the room… but I wanted to.

Wrath!

“…?”

“…?”

Rey and Aaron looked at the same place at the same time.

A bright light was emanating from Rey’s conquest hanging on the wall.

I didn’t notice it under the sun, but when it got dark around it, it was immediately noticeable.

Rey was puzzled and looked at the conquest.

The brooch I had put in my inner pocket when I took off my uniform was emitting a bright light.

‘…divine power?’

Rey lifted the brooch that Karen had given her.

Compared to the first time Karen gave it to her, the brooch had an incredible concentration of divine power.

Today, when I drew the holy sword.

It was only then that Rey realized where the part of the divine power that flowed out through the holy sword was nestled.

“under…”

The newly imbued divine power strengthened the function of the brooch that Karen had fortified by several steps.

Even just wearing this amount, it would be possible to relieve a lot of the fatigue accumulated on the body and heal minor wounds.

Unlike before, which was functionally a failing product, the brooch that Karen gave as a gift has now been strengthened enough to not be inferior to that of a fairly high-quality item.

It wasn’t clear if this was simply a coincidence, but Rey wasn’t in a bad mood anyway.

Ray tied the brooch and put it in the drawer.

Light was leaking from the drawer, but not much light was leaking out.

Ray said as he lay back on the bed.

“Stop sleeping.”

“Uh, uh, yes.”

On the first night of the dorm, Aaron tossed and turned in bed for quite some time.

Second day of admission.

Aegis training began in earnest.

Professional training started after a period of adaptation, but for that reason, even more intense physical training time awaited.

“run!!”

Since morning, the 3rd grade cadets have been running hard around the gym.

Nelson was running next to him, catching his breath, and Ray muttered to himself that the old man was running well.

Most of the Aegis cadets were keen on running.

Of course, the Aegis did not fill the physical training with simple running.

Halfway around the gym, an artificially built rock wall appeared.

It was close to 10 m high, and of course I had to climb it.

“Execution of the climbing wall!!”

“Wow!”

The cadets rushed and clinged to the rock wall.

If you use mana, you could jump and climb, but if you did tricks such as strengthening your muscles with mana, you were just ignorant.

The light cadets climbed the rock wall quickly, and the cadets with slightly overweight muscles suffered more.

Anyway, all of them were elites who only trained hard, so they easily climbed the rock wall and then grabbed the rope and came down on the other side.

After a few laps of that, Nelson stopped the cadets and gave the order.

“Perform revenge!!”

New training suits and thick armor lay in front of the cadets.

Of course, it was armor in a good way, and it wasn’t really a proper type of armor, it was just a dirty heavy piece of iron used to cover the body.

The cadets hesitated for a moment, not because of the order to change clothes in front of others.

I didn’t have to take off my underwear, but it was a bit hot to undress in the midst of a mix of men and women.

“Congratulations!”

Read at n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Nelson cried again.

After all, as we were training, we were able to see each other in ways we couldn’t see much more than this.

At Nelson’s cry, the cadets hurriedly took off their coats.

Ray also took off his training uniform and tried to change into the newly provided clothes, but naturally the attention around him was drawn.

“…!”

After a brief chatter, the cadets noticed Nelson’s gaze and quickly changed their clothes.

Of course, Nelson didn’t just show it, but he continued to look at Ray with an embarrassed feeling.

“run!!”

With Nelson’s shout, the third-class cadets clad in iron and ran again.

Slowly, the sound of sickness came out of the mouths of the 3rd grade cadets.

It was just like running, but when I climbed the rock wall wearing a cumbersome piece of metal, I was out of breath.

However, Nelson continued to push the cadets back.

After about 3 laps, after a few squirrels, a break was given.

While everyone was sitting and panting, Aaron opened his mouth after a conflict.

“gray.”

“Uh, why?”

“How did you get the scars on your body…?”

When Aaron got up the courage, the other cadets pricked up their ears.

It was an rude question, but I really couldn’t help but ask.

Almost half of Rey’s upper body was covered with burn scars, and besides that, there were not one or two scratches.

“…”

Maybe I’d be slapped in the cheek for saying a cheeky voice.

Aaron looked into Rey’s eyes, worrying about that belatedly.

However, Ray answered the question in a much softer voice than Aaron had expected.

“Oh, the scars on your body? These are all scars from childhood.”

“…when you were young?”

“When I was a child, I was captured and abused as a slave. Boiling oil was poured on my body or I was stabbed with an iron rod… All the scars I suffered from the abuse at that time became scars.”

“…”

“…”

“…”

The atmosphere was really shitty.

Some of the cadets doubted that this child might be lying, but it was humanly difficult to convince Rey not to gossip in Rey’s face.

Only Johanna and Darren looked into each other’s eyes and blinked.

Was Ray used as a slave when he was young? Rather, didn’t Ray live a life of slavery to Jim and Matthew?

Anyway, after Ray let go of the atmosphere.

A shuffling sound was heard from somewhere.

Ray turned his head to and fro, and found Giuseppin with tears in his eyes.

“…why are you crying?”

Giuseppin stole the corners of his eyes and answered in a locked voice.

“Hmm… I… I never imagined that your personality flaws… came from a past like that.”

“…”

Seeing the sympathetic and sensitive Juicepin, Ray made a sad expression on her face, and soon lost her mind.

“Did you just lie about that?”

“…!”

Giusepin’s eyes widened as if in shock.

It was a reaction that he had never imagined that Ray had lied.

When Ray looked at Giuseppin, he thought of Alesia occasionally.

Wouldn’t something like that pop out if I raise the stats of the jobless by 3 points in Alesia and lower the intelligence stats by about 2 points…

While Ray was thinking about something like that, Nelson’s cry came over.

“When did I allow small talk?!”

The cadets shut their mouths, but soon started running again.

*

A hard day’s training is over.

The purpose of the initial training prepared for the 3rd grade cadets was to acquire discipline.

Because of that, there was a side to being a little ignorant, but it was difficult for Rey as well.

It was only the second day of entering the school, but Ray was already feeling a strong feeling of regret.

‘I can’t, let’s just open up our identity and live comfortably…’

Rei couldn’t grind the joints that had been ripped off when the other guys were toddler crawl around, and again in Aegis.

Anyway, I ate it up anyway.

Aegis’ atmosphere wasn’t as bad as Rey was worried about, so Rey changed her mind to just having fun and eating while watching Yohana and Darren go through a period of adjustment for about a semester.

‘Spera’s fiancée would suffice.’

If not immediately, let’s reveal our identity when we have the opportunity.

With that in mind, Rei headed to Aegis’s bathroom.

3rd grade cadets were not allowed to use the large bath except on special days, and usually only had to use the small bath next to it… There was something close to the bad habit, but of course Rei didn’t care.

According to the original rules, there were times when the large baths were also available to third-class cadets.

And Rei, seeing the rules, went into the bath and soaked herself in the water.

“Why is no one there?”

There was really no one there, so Ray sputtered and made a voice.

Only Rei’s voice echoed in the bathroom.

At that moment, two second-class cadets entered the large bathhouse.

The two second-grade cadets went inside, happy that they could now use the large bath to their heart’s content, and met the eyes of Rei, the first guest.

“?”

“?”

“?”

The three of them thought of a question mark at the same time.

The 2nd grade cadets couldn’t understand why the 3rd grade cadets were sitting in the large bathhouse, and Rey couldn’t understand why the 2nd grade cadets had entered the large bath at this time.

A second-class cadet with brown hair blinked in embarrassment and then became angry.

“Hey, you’re a third-grade cadet.”

“Yes that’s right.”

“This bastard is… come out of nowhere.”

“…?”

Rei grew annoyed, but got up from the bath as the brunette instructed.

As the brunette continued to cry out in anger, she stiffened when she saw the scars covering Rey’s upper body.

Meanwhile.

Sebas Rilford, a second-class cadet next to the brown-haired one, was astonished to see Rey’s other thing.

“…!! No, that pepper is …?!”
