Rain looked at Hajun with a somewhat absurd expression.

Contrary to Rain’s expression, Hajun was dumbfounded.

“Did you really intend to stay as a foodie?”

“… … .”

At those words, Rain also kept his mouth shut, as if he had a conscience.

Then, ashamed, he scratched his head and opened his mouth.

“I don’t know how to wash the dishes.”

“… … .”

Ha-joon was at a loss for words.

Hajun asked another question again.

“What else? Don’t you know how to do laundry or clean?”

“I do not know.”

Hajun’s eyes grew cold at Rain’s confident words.

this guy… … , Are you really useless and only know how to fight?

Seeing Hajun’s expression like that, Rain continued with a calm expression.

“But there is a way.”

“How?”

With those words, Lane held out her hand.

“I’ll borrow a phone.”

Hajun gave the phone to Rain with a confused expression.

It was Lane who was calling somewhere soon.

Lane still opened his mouth with a calm expression.

“Milla, I have a favor to ask of you.”

* * *

After that, less than a minute after they broke up, Mila and Hakuse came home.

The two of them listened to Lane’s request for a moment and looked at Lane with a cold expression.

“Wow… … , Leader. Anyway, did you call us back for something like that?”

“Captain, is it because you’re just too lazy to do housework?”

It was Lane who shook her head at those words.

Lane opened her mouth to the two with a confident, in a way, shameless face.

“I can’t. That’s why I called you guys.”

Lane just said he didn’t know how to do it with a really innocent face.

The two knew that, but their expressions couldn’t help but become salty.

Finally, the two sighed and opened their mouths.

“Then I’ll wash the dishes.”

“under… … , Then I wash. The captain will come and help.”

“… … .”

Lane put on a look that seemed annoyed at those words, but eventually nodded.

So when Hakuse washed the dishes and Mila and Lane went out to the garden to do the laundry, Elaine and Lian, who were waiting on the second floor, came down cautiously.

Elaine, who was looking around, looked at Hajun with a puzzled face and said.

“yes? Did you hire a cleaner?”

At those words, Hajun unknowingly burst into laughter.

Ha Joon nodded and opened his mouth.

“uh. They’ll do it for a while.”

Oh at that! Elaine was admiring, but Lian, who was standing next to her, was sweating profusely.

Lian caused an earthquake in his pupils and opened his mouth to Hajun.

“He, why are they here!”

But what, is it because he was a former villain?

It seems that he recognized Lane outside, frowning and hanging out the laundry clumsily.

Hajun opened his mouth to Rian.

“For the time being, they do housework.”

“What, what?! What bullshit is that!”

“Let them do all the annoying things. Then I go.”

“yes? Where are you going?”

At Elaine’s words, Hajun nodded.

I went home to rest for a while, but I couldn’t just leave Han Si-young alone.

“no. for a moment! Wait a minute!”

Hajun came out, ignoring Rian’s scream-like begging from behind.

Stopping time as it was, I thought before going to the mountain.

‘Should I buy some camping gear before I go?’

I don’t know if he’s used to sleeping outside, but Hajun headed to a camping tool store before going to sleep under a soft blanket.

* * *

Han Si-young was looking at Ha-joon, who had just arrived, with a slightly bewildered face.

Well, that’s because as soon as this guy arrived, he set up a tent right in front of his nose and got ready to sleep.

“Then wake me up if something happens.”

“… … .”

The time was 6:00 PM, the sun was setting and the sunset was setting, but it was not yet time to go to bed.

Han Si-young looked at Ha-jun as he entered the Sook tent.

I’ve been aware of it for a long time, but that guy is a truly unique alien species.

Does it really have to be called irregular in a different sense?

Of course, Han Si-young didn’t pay much attention and started to rummage around the bonfire again.

In any case, he is grateful to Ha-jun, who listened to his request and came back.

Of course, it’s a little, no, far from the purpose of coming here, but… … , Even so, the reason why he left Ha-joon alone was that Han Si-young was not sure about his own judgment.

‘Really Master… … .’

Shall we come here?

Only one day had passed, but Han Si-young began to lose faith in her convictions.

It was because he thought that Master, who had disappeared from the beginning, would be here.

However, if Master disappeared, the certainty that he would come to this place began to fade.

‘Until today… … .’

That’s why Siyoung Han decided.

I’m only here until today and I’m going back.

Han Si-young’s gaze turned to the tent where Ha-joon was sleeping.

At least he seemed to intend to stay here as long as he was here.

When time passed like that and night came.

Han Si-yeong slowly stood up from her seat.

It was to hunt the monsters to eat in the evening.

The moment I entered the forest like that.

“?!”

In an instant, Han Si-young’s eyes widened.

The presence of magical power felt nearby.

It was clearly not the witch’s magic.

“no way… … ?”

Han Si-young immediately ran towards the place where he could feel the presence of that magical power.

It was clearly a magical aura that seemed to radiate from a person.

It is magical energy as if it had reached a certain level after being refined for a long time.

And Han Si-yeong knew the owner of this aura.

Whoo!

The moment you hit the ground and arrive at a place where you can feel the energy.

Han Si-young’s eyes widened.

It was a place that looked like a large clearing covered in forest on all sides.

The center of the clearing where the moonlight sat down.

Han Si-young was able to meet the person she wanted to meet so much.

“Siyoung.”

Sword King Han Jun-ho.

She was looking at Han Si-young with quiet eyes.

“It’s been a while.”

* * *

Han Si-yeong tried to calm her excitement and approached her with a calm expression like hers.

Siyoung Han respectfully bowed toward her and greeted her.

“Long time no see, Master.”

“As expected, it was you, the presence at that place… … .”

She looked at Han Si-young with a faint smile.

However, as soon as her gaze saw the sword wrapped around Han Si-young’s waist, the corners of her mouth, which had risen lightly, slowly lowered.

The Sword King looked at Han Si-young and said.

“You’re still holding the sword.”

“Yes.”

“You didn’t put it down?”

The Sword King looked at Siyoung Han with bitter eyes.

Han Si-young just calmly looked at the sword king and spoke.

“This is the sword I received from my master.”

“I taught only enough to protect your body. I didn’t want you to go down this road.”

“Even so, this is the path I chose.”

“You could die, Siyoung.”

The Sword King, who had suffered great chaos in the past and survived countless battles, gave advice to Han Si-young.

“Did you have to be a hero?”

The Sword King knew the meaning of ‘hero’ better than anyone else.

“Heroes are those who protect and those who are sacrificed.”

She was the one who survived when the world was in chaos in the past.

In countless battles, I witnessed the will of those called heroes in front of my eyes and saw their deaths countless times.

Their deaths were meaningless and honorable.

However, the Sword King had the meaning of ‘death’.

“I don’t want you to die with honor. I don’t want you to get seriously hurt. I’m not allowed to go to the academy. There will be children you cherish. However.”

She looked at Han Si-young with cold eyes and said.

“I can’t allow myself to be a ‘hero’.”

“… … .”

Han Si-yeong listened to her words in silence.

The expression on his sunken head was calm.

Without any thought, without any intention to change what has already been decided.

With calm but straight eyes, he raised his head and looked at the Sword King.

Siyoung Han said.

“Before leaving, Master said so.”

“… … .”

“I have no talent. but… … .”

Han Si-yeong looked at the Sword King with straight eyes and said.

“I have no intention of giving up.”

“… … !”

Kwak!

It was the Sword King who clenched his fists in an instant.

She frowned and glared at Han Si-yeong.

“Then try it.”

seureung-

With those words, the Sword King pulled out the sword from his waist.

That was the beginning.

The Sword King drew the sword from his waist and reached Siyoung’s nose in an instant.

However, the moment the Sword King pulled out the sword, Han Si-young had already unleashed the sword in response.

visor!!

It was Han Si-young who blocked the sword that the sword king wielded.

The Sword King looked at Han Si-young and shouted.

“If you defeat me, I will allow you to become a hero. But if you lose, throw away the sword you are holding!”

At that, Han Si-young nodded her head with a serious face and answered politely.

“All right.”

* * *

Whoo! Cuckoo!!

With a single swing, trees in the surrounding forest were cut down in chunks.

Whoo!!

Every time the Sword King swung his sword, huge wind pressure arose.

The sword of the legendary Sword King, who is said to have cut down a mountain in the past.

The surrounding trees were cut down and the leaves were blown in all directions by the wind pressure.

A phenomenon caused by pure force.

Even after causing such a phenomenon, the Sword King’s magical power was still calm.

It was not simply a phenomenon caused by abilities or magical powers.

A skill that can only be performed by superhumans whose bodies have reached a state beyond their limits.

As the situation was, the Sword King did not look down on Han Si-young.

Whoo! Tup-

However, Han Si-young was avoiding the Sword King’s sword attack.

Before he jumped high and collapsed, he jumped higher using a tree as a support and then fell towards the sword king, turning his body wide and swinging his sword.

visor!!

“?!”

However, the Sword King simply raised his hand holding the sword to block it leisurely.

In that state, the Sword King lightly waved his hand.

However, a series of movements that seemed light seemed to go beyond the speed of sound in Han Si-young’s eyes.

Whoops!! Cuckoo Cuckoo!!!

In that brief moment, it was Han Si-young who quickly bent back, pulling back the sword she had been pushing against. At the same time, part of Han Si-young’s bangs, which were shaking, were grazed by the sword, and countless trees behind Han Si-young kuckoo! There was a roar and a crashing sound.

The Sword King raised his sword again and opened his mouth.

“The world is wide, Siyoung.”

“… … .”

“What would you do if you met someone on the same level as me?”

At the same time, the Sword King spurred the ground and rushed towards Han Si-yeong.

He didn’t swing his sword as it was, but he was the sword king who pushed Han Si-young with his sword held forward.

thud! thud! thud!

“Did the fact that you are my disciple make you arrogant!”

Countless trees crashed into each other, giving Han Si-young a shock.

Han Si-yeong was a sword king who just clenched her teeth and endured, and at one point pushed the sword as it was and swung the sword wide.

In the shock, Han Si-young’s new model flew away.

In such a situation, Han Si-young turned her body backwards in the air.

As it was, Siyoung spurred the tree to alleviate the impact and landed on the ground again using the tree as a fulcrum.

visor!!

Thanks to that speed, Siyoung Han swung her sword.

However, the Sword King still leisurely blocked Siyoung’s sword and swung it as if to push the sword away.

When there was a moment of quiet confrontation, the Sword King looked at Han Si-young and said.

“Siyoung, you are still weak.”

Han Si-yeong heard those words, but her expression did not change at all.

Those pupils were still looking straight at the Sword King.

Emotions fluctuated, and there was not even the slightest movement in his heart.

Because he was so upright and firm.

The Sword King knew such Han Si-yeong better than anyone else.

So, unlike before, the Sword King slowly approached Han Si-yeong.

Even though the sword came within reach, Han Si-young did not swing it.

Han Si-young looked at her and she also looked at Han Si-young.

When they came to a certain distance, the sword king said to Han Si-young.

“Get your posture, Siyoung.”

“… … .”

At those words, Siyoung Han prepared.

He lowered his stance and put strength into his two hands holding the sword.

Get ready to swing your sword.

In line with that, she also prepared to swing her sword in a respectful manner.

Han Si-young felt that this was her consideration and that this was the end of the game.

It was the final moment when Master tried to judge his own sword.

“Wield it with all your might.”

With those words, Han Si-young’s mana shook quietly.

The mana flowed from Han Si-young’s body covered the sword.

The Sword King, who had been watching such a scene, hardened his expression and took a ready stance.

The Sword King said while looking at Han Si-yeong who had finished preparing.

“kiln.”

At the same time, the two kicked the ground.

Whoo!!

The two new species that disappeared in an instant.

However, when the new form of the two reappeared.

Han Si-young’s eyes, which had not caused a stir until now, were shaking for the first time.

“?!”

the sword he was holding.

The blade of the sword I received from my master.

visor!

It was cut in half and fell to the ground in vain.
