I Became a Crazy Swordsmanship Instructor in the Game

chapter 26



* * *

—… master? Why are you staring at that cute kitty?

Philip looked for the perfect opportunity, ignoring Neria’s voice in his head. The moment that cat completely let go of its guard, I was thinking of attacking it.

“Whehehehe.”

The black cat twisted and loosened its joints. Then he muttered in a voice dripping with life and annoyance.

“Like a damn b*tch. All in all, entrusting yourself to the dean?”

Neria was startled by the rough man’s voice, as if scratching iron, and called for Philip.

—… master? Is that the voice the owner just gave out?

Philip shook his head in a very small motion.

―Well, then, is there anyone else here?

This time, instead of shaking his head once more, he pointed at the cat with his chin.

The identity of that black cat was a member of the ‘Black Cat’.

The Black Myo were born with the ability to hide themselves in the darkness and shadows, and were basically more flexible and agile than elves, and most of the members of the race acted as assassins.

Unfortunately, Neria’s innocence was completely shattered as soon as the cat opened her mouth again.

“I will never kill you gracefully. I will make you taste the pain of heaven so that you regret being born… .”

These were words one would only hear from a demon who climbed from the depths of hell.

-Nonsense… ! That’s a beast from hell. master. We must kill them quickly!

With Neria’s incredulous screams, Philip threw himself.

‘now!’

It was aimed at the very moment when the cat’s gaze and concentration were dispersed, strengthening its physical abilities with an aura.

Philip’s body, shot like an arrow, hit the cat.

No matter how hardened an assassin was, there was nothing he could do about a sudden surprise attack. The cat was caught by the scruff of its neck in Philip’s grasp in an instant.

“Kiyaaaooong!”

A sharp cat cry rang through the clock tower. Philip immediately brought his index finger to his lips.

“If you make noise, I will kill you.”

“Ahhh… Wow.”

The cat’s expression hardened as it looked at Philip with frightened eyes.

‘Sir. You know me. Where did the information leak?’

“Kain of the Black Myo Tribe. Do you think I came here without knowing you? It’s good to throw away the thought of transforming. I’m going to twist your neck as soon as I see your body starting to grow.”

At Philip’s warning, the cat, Kane of the Black Cat, showed his fangs and hissed.

“You bastard, are you really crazy? I don’t know how you knew and caught me, but our goal is not you. If you’re not going to fight with Crescent, just leave it and get out of here.”

“I don’t think you know your situation yet.”

Philip grabbed the cat by the scruff of its neck, raised his arm, and slammed it hard on the floor.

“Whehehe!”

Not in human form, but in the form of a cat, it could not withstand such a shock. Kane of the Black Myo tribe moaned in pain and glared at Philip.

“… What do you want? The subject of the request or the client cannot be disclosed. If it’s anything other than that, I’ll pass it on without hesitation, so let’s put this away for now.”

Contrary to his murderous gaze, he was quite obedient.

The Black Myo tribe was far from loyal, befitting a cat-like race. If he hadn’t had a magical contract with ‘Crescent’, he would have generously sold information about the request.

He had no intention of recklessly going against the opponent who had grasped his identity and hiding place and subdued him.

Philippe, without hesitation, began tying him up with the rope he had previously tied around his waist.

Kane of the Black Myo tribe completely gave up resistance to his skill of tying his forepaws to his stomach so that he could not take out his claws. It seemed clear that Philip knew exactly the weakness of the Black Cat.

“I won’t resist, so tell me what you want!”

“what I want?”

Philip looked down at the chained cat with a cold expression.

“Crescent’s home base and alert level. And I want the position of chief. I’m not sure if you can give it to me.”

“what? Isn’t this a total crazy bastard… Kyaooooong!”

Philip, who pushed him to the floor once more, opened his mouth.

“If I don’t know, I have to die, what can I do? Your assassination target, Rizriel Youssef, is mine, and I have no intention of letting those who mess with those around me. I’ll ask again. Do you know where Crescent is based? Do you know the vigilance level and the location of Nepen, the head of the Crescent?”

‘… Do you know the name of the leader?’

If Kane had been in his current human form, his face would have turned white.

He realized that he was firmly mistaken.

“Me, I don’t know. However, Stella, the godmother of the Black Myo tribe, would know. I will guide you to him.”

Philip nodded and put the well-tied cat into the sack he had prepared.

―Master, Neria… … Neria is… .

Neria, who watched all of this, called out to Philip in a voice full of shock and fear.

“Remember. The world isn’t everything you see.”

Philip calmed her down and went down the clock tower with the bag containing the Black Myo assassin.

* * *

The next place Philip headed was the faculty dormitory.

-Did you leave anything behind?

When Neria, somewhat relieved of shock, asked, Philip shook his head.

“I came because I had someone to meet. We need strong allies to deal with Crescent before sunrise.”

-strong… Are you allies? Are you talking about the great sage grandfather and the funny man?

The funny man Neria was talking about was Head Professor Emile Panoy.

“The dean isn’t close enough to make such a request, and if the person I’m looking for now refuses, I think they’ll probably go to the head professor.”

—… ?

Philip climbed the stairs of the faculty dormitory and headed to the floor used by the female faculty.

Passing through the hallway, he stopped in front of a door and cautiously knocked.

Fortunately, the owner of the room hadn’t fallen asleep yet.

“Haaa… who are you?”

“it’s me. Philip. I was wondering if we could talk for a minute.”

“huh? Ah, wait, I’ll be leaving soon!”

The one who opened the door was Priscilla, an instructor from the Faculty of Magic. She came out to meet Philip in her nightgown and slippers.

“this… What are you doing at such a late hour? What do you have on your back?”

I couldn’t tell what she was thinking, but her cheeks were quite red.

Philip approached her and whispered in her ear.

“I have something to tell you.”

“will do… What do you mean?”

“Actually, I’m going alone to deal with an old assassination organization from now on, but I’m afraid I might get seriously injured or die. You’re my friend, so I’ll let you know in advance… … suck.”

Soon, Priscilla’s hand covered Philip’s mouth.

“… You arrogantly called me out and tried to trick me. Do you want to die at my hands?”

Philip noticed that Priscilla had lent herself to the academy’s guardian dragon.

I could tell just by looking at his expression that everything was annoying.

“I am amazed every time I see it. What is the principle? Are you even possessing her body?”

“Is there any reason for me to tell you that? When did you tell me to leave you alone, and why did you come to me now?”

The dragon Privia narrowed her brows and glared at Philip. It seemed to be in a pretty bad mood, but Philip didn’t mind.

I wouldn’t have thought of coming to her if it was something else, but if it was dealing with the Crescent, I thought I could get her help.

“That’s exactly what I said to Priscilla. From now on, I will move to dismantle the assassination organization ‘Crescent’.”

“… So, if you don’t want to see you die, are you asking me to help you?”

Seeing her suppressing her anger, Philip hurriedly waved his hand.

“That’s not it. Do you know who the head of Crescent is?”

“Should I know that?”

At Privia’s question, Philip nodded.

“yes. It’s because the leader of Crescent, Nepen, is a demon.”

As soon as he finished answering, Freevia grabbed Philip’s collar and immediately opened the portal.

“… uh?”

Philip had to follow her through the portal without reacting properly.

In an instant, the scenery changed. Philip was horrified to find out that he was on the mountain behind the academy.

“You bastard, can you take responsibility for that? If it is false, you will have to pay the price for deceiving me, whether you are the heir to the Moonlight Sword or not.”

The dragon Privia pressed Philip with a cool expression. Recovering his composure, Philip smiled softly.

“You already know that I’m not lying.”

True to his words, Pribia already knew that Philip had told the truth. But even so, her pride did not allow her to fall for Philip’s shallow tricks.

“You should be grateful for your talents. If you weren’t the heir to the Moonlight Sword, I would have put a terrible curse on you.”

Philip couldn’t contain his curiosity and asked a question.

“What kind of curse are you talking about?”

“Erectile Dysfunction.”

It was a short and bold answer. Philip felt a chill run down his spine and rubbed his chest.

‘What kind of promise did you make with Master Otem, the creator of the Moonlight Sword?’

He felt the need to dig deeper into this fact as well.

“… As you said, if the leader of the group called the Crescent is a demon, then it is right that I should step in. This is directly against the agreement between the demons and dragons.”

‘yes!’

Philip groaned inwardly. But the next moment, Privia’s dragon eye entangled him so that he couldn’t even move.

It felt as if the gaze itself had the power to hold on to his body.

“but… It’s so shameful. How dare a human try to use a dragon as intended? How are you going to pay for that?”

-main… master… ? Is that sister really a dragon?

Neria’s frightened voice echoed in my head.

At that time, Privia’s gaze turned to Neria, who was clinging to Philip’s waist.

“… that?”

When she reached out, Neria, which was tied around Phillip’s waist, was pulled out of her own accord and caught in her hand.

“Don’t bully him!”

Philip exclaimed in dismay. However, Pribia lightly ignored his voice and muttered something.

It seemed that he was probably talking to Neria.

“Okay, don’t cry. No, do you want to stop crying? Ha, what the hell… .”

She returned Neria to Philip with her head pounding at her temples.

As soon as Philip confirmed that his body was moving freely, he held Neria in his hand.

―Pueeeng! hehehe!

Neria’s frightened cries echoed through her skull. Phillip stroked the bloodstain and the pommel to soothe her.

Freevia let out a deep sigh and waved her hand.

“… damn it Don’t fool me this time.”

“yes?”

“It means that I will fall for your tricks once. If the aftertaste remains like this, it will be unpleasant for hundreds of years.”

Surprised by her sudden change of attitude, Philip whispered to Neria.

“What did you say?”

―Suddenly… I just told you not to bother the master… sniff… What?

Neria, who started crying at Philip’s touch, answered.

‘… what?’

I don’t know what the heck happened, but it turned out well anyway. Phillip bowed to her and thanked her.

“thank you.”

Maybe this one time will be the end, but he got on the dragon’s back to solve the case. He prayed in advance for the rest of the Crescent assassins he would meet in the future.

They would probably die, or die with a high probability.
