“No-gong, it’s been a while.”

After today’s class and training, we went to Otar to introduce Nang-ah, and Otar greeted us warmly.

“Yeah, long time no see.”

Upon entering, there were several items on the table that appeared to have been purchased from a nearby grocery store, presumably while they were still eating.

Hardy, who was taking the steaming sausage from the plate to her mouth, saw me and stopped and took a bite of the sausage.

“Is it you? I heard the news, you said you rode as the Count? So should I call you Count now?”

“No, just call it what you normally call it, because titles are just decorations.”

“Strange guy… So what’s going on today?”

“Yeah, that’s… Nang! Come out for a second!”

At my call, Nang-a, who had been sleeping in a scabbard, took a human form and appeared in front of the two of them.

“Ummm… Master, what’s wrong?”

“I am here to introduce this child. And I have several questions to ask… .”

“Hoo… !! I knew I had an ego, but what if I could take on a human form… .”

“Certainly, magic swords that come this far are rare.”

Perhaps because of the difference in material, there are demon swords that can speak like humans, but there are very few demon swords that directly transform into humans like Nang-a.

Numerous demon swords appeared in the original, but among them, only two were transformed into humans like Nang-a.

Othar and Hardy looked at Nanga with jubilant eyes, then nodded their heads in satisfaction and smiled.

On the other hand, Nang-a took a step back and hid behind me asking if the gaze of the two was burdensome.

“Master, who are these guys? I’ve been staring intently since before… .”

“Did you remember when you were barking like a dog? These are the people who made you.”

“me… . Then I have to say thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to meet the owner.”

As Nang-a bowed her head unsuitably, I could feel my face, who was watching it, get hot.

Unlike me, who for some reason felt ashamed, Otar and Hardy looked at Nang-a with their heads bowed and said with warm expressions on their faces.

“We also forged you for our purposes, so we have nothing to be thankful for. So come on, raise your head.”

“is it? Then I’m not very grateful. Undo what you just said thank you.”

“… … That sword is its master… .”

It didn’t take long for the faces of the two people who were looking satisfied with their faces to rot.

Othar took a deep breath when he saw me, then made a face that suddenly reminded me of something and asked me.

“I forgot to tell you for a moment. Haven’t the guys been trying to come in contact with you since that fight?”

“Contact?”

At first, I thought it was referring to the nobles or the royal family, but seeing Otar’s more serious expression than usual, it seemed that wasn’t the case.

“Because he used the magic sword so splendidly in a public place. There is a possibility that some kind of invitation will come from an organization related to Ma.”

Many demon worship groups also appeared in the original work, but their shadows were not seen in this world, probably because the possessors who came first dealt with them.

“It seems that there is no such recommendation yet, but if they come out… .”

“You want me to run away?”

“No, find them, kill them all, and bring me the weapons. Because I might be able to forge a good sword again.”

In this respect, Otar really likes the opposite of Marina.

“If I get a plausible material, I make sure to bring it. By the way, can I ask you a favor when talking about swords?”

“Request?”

“I’d like to ask for a hundred katana, please. If it is difficult, fifty bags are fine.”

“Why so many… Are you thinking of creating a knighthood?”

“No, I’m thinking of decorating my house.”

“… … What?”

Everyone has at least one dream home of their own.

For example, if someone dreams of a house with a beautiful garden in full bloom, I wished for a dreamlike mansion where a katana is always waiting for me wherever I go.

Whether you go to the bedroom, the living room, or even the bathroom, life is with a katana… Just imagining it, his expression was disturbed with ecstasy.

“host!! Why do you keep trying to pick up another sword even though I’m here!! It’s annoying to be with a disabled sword tied to my waist right now!!”

After Nang-a shouted that, I frowned and said,

“Nang-ah, listen to me. Basically, the more swords and women, the better. And since the original blade of the reverse-edged sword is reversed, don’t call it a disabled sword again. okay?!”

“What are you talking about!! Even if you make it like that on purpose, a disabled sword is still a disabled sword!!”

“This is real!!”

“Keeping!!”

Unable to bear it, I put a honey chestnut on Nang-a’s head and Nang-a cried and returned to the scabbard.

“Whew… . So, how long does it take to make a katana? Could it be a month?”

“Don’t be bullshit, get out of my forge right now.”

*****

“Well… … .”

On the way to school as usual, I realized that I don’t see students chatting with each other at all these days.

Not only is the sound of words not audible, but the atmosphere as a whole stands out.

Thinking for some reason, I suddenly remembered today’s date and realized the reason.

‘It was a class replacement exam soon.’

I am not so serious about my studies because I think of the C Class Ihaya Academy as just a place for socializing, but it was different from Class B.

For those who are engrossed in training every day to raise their grades even a little, this time was the most sensitive time.

And as there were so many sensitive people around, Class C also became quieter, and the atmosphere of the academy as a whole subsided.

‘I’m sorry… .’

If I had learned baldo, I wouldn’t have to worry about such useless things. If you have a bad head, your body suffers, and that’s exactly what it was.

While everyone was sensitive, there were some students who were no different from usual, and one of them was Hori, who was right next to me.

“Something doesn’t feel right?”

“It’s a half replacement exam. Are you ready? If you fail the exam, you may reconsider your sponsorship.”

“Do not worry!! The Alchemy Department’s exam is as simple as creating a theory and a prescribed drug! Is it because the class placement test is more difficult?”

Hori said, “Theory and manufacturing tests are just plain medicine, but the class assignments are much more difficult than ordinary tests because you have to keep track of the grades of other students.”

“Ian is taking the exam… Well, are you okay? In fact, there is no need to take the test, is there?”

“How can I not take the exam? Everyone sees it, but I have to see it too.”

Even in order to spread the martial arts, I definitely wanted to take the test.

“Then I’ll go first, since everyone has been to the Alchemy Department building.”

“Yes, and the repair of the workshop in the mansion will be finished soon. If there is an instrument you want to buy, write it in a separate letter and send it to me later.”

“yes!”

When I left Hori behind and walked into the classroom, the atmosphere was quite calm, unlike the outside, probably because it was class S.

As I train in a better facility, I’m sure I have a lot more spare time than those in Class A or lower.

When I entered the knighthood class, as expected, unlike the other classes, they all looked not much different from usual.

“Is everyone calm?”

“Absolutely. On the contrary, it is strange to be so flustered by something like an exam.”

“It’s just as Jessica Young-ae said. If it’s to the point that you’re bewildered that the exam is approaching, it’s okay.”

“yes?”

Unlike Jessica, who usually cannot ignore me until the end, Lane, who completely ignored me, opened her mouth.

Looking at Lane at the rare sight, Lane avoided her head as if embarrassed and opened her mouth.

“there… .”

But the moment she opened her mouth, the door opened as if she was about to stop talking, and Marina entered the classroom through the opened door.

Lane, who was about to say something, immediately turned her head to see Marina standing at the school table, and we, who were watching it, turned our heads and looked at Marina.

“Good morning everyone. First of all, before class, I would like to tell you about the upcoming class replacement exam. Student Ian?”

“yes.”

“Student Ian is exempt from the class replacement exam. There is no change, so be aware of that.”

“… … yes?”

As soon as I heard those words, Marina said calmly, as if it was nothing special, as if I had not been able to read the emotions that had risen in my heart at all.

“It is literally. Class replacement tests are designed to assess a student’s ability. Ian’s skills were already well known from the last fight.”

“No, though… !! If you don’t take the exam at all, isn’t it wrong?! Words will come out!!”

“It is not a denial. She, the next swordsman, will automatically go up to S-Class in this way, and above all, rest assured that a student who has no discernment to dispute the academy’s judgment will not be able to even cross the academy’s threshold.”

“still… !!”

“More than anything else, what is the crime of a student who has bad luck and the test partner is a student named Ahn? This has already been decided, so I will not allow voicing.”

“Ugh!!!”

In the end, I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut.

It had been such a long and irritating class, and it was about time for a break.

“… … Ian Gong.”

Lane stood in front of me to say something that Marina interrupted earlier.

“I think I was just trying to say something, do you have anything to do with me? If you want to learn the art of footwork… .”

“There can be no idiot in this classroom who wants to learn such a thing, right? Miss Lane, if you would like to have a close conversation, would you mind leaving your seat?”

“No, thanks. It hasn’t been decided yet, it’s just a confirmation, right?”

“Confirm?”

When he tilted his head not knowing what he was talking about, Lane hesitated for a moment, then sighed heavily and opened his mouth.

“Ian Gong, are you planning to present it?”

… … line?
