I Became a Crazy Swordsmanship Instructor in the Game

* * *

Rizriel Youssef was painful, boring, and scary.

There would be few people in the world who wouldn’t mind in a situation where an unprecedented assassination group boasting tradition and history was targeting them.

During the day, she killed time in the dean’s office, and at night, she endured several days by sleeping in the corner of the dormitory where head professor Emil Panoy stayed.

Head Professor Emil Panoy was a pretty nice guy.

However, the smell of widowers and cigarettes in his room was a bit unbearable.

‘Who the hell is targeting me?’

Fortunately, thanks to the connections he had made at Crescent, he had been warned in advance, but otherwise he would have been ambushed and killed while bathing, sleeping, or in the bathroom.

‘The golden seal is in my hand… It’s not, but it came my way anyway, and I can’t die without using it. Is the information leaked?’

It was no wonder that she was targeted for assassination if information about the golden seal was leaked.

But she knew best that the chances of leaking information were extremely low. The only people in the world who know the existence of the golden seal are Philip and Yousef’s direct lineage.

If Philip had contrived, there would be no way he would have made a request to the assassins. Because there are so many easier ways than that.

‘Neither sister nor brother. They wouldn’t have attacked me in a way that left evidence like a hitman.’

Her rivals, Youssef, were extremely cautious and would not have acted this way.

Most of these days have been like this.

Repeatedly assembling uncertain information in my head without evidence and then breaking it down again.

The habit of biting her nails from her childhood reappeared, and shadows appeared under her eyes from poor sleep.

“It can’t go on like this.”

Hiding like this didn’t change anything. Although he delivered a letter to Youssef Company about his situation, it would take at least several months to resolve the matter there.

“miss. Were you having a good time?”

Then the door to the dean’s office opened and head professor Emil Panoy entered.

“Ah, professor.”

Rizriel bowed her head in greeting, and the head professor skipped the introduction and asked a question without hesitation.

“One of the youngest instructors didn’t come back after class yesterday. I heard that you are close to the lady, but is it something related to the lady?”

“… By the youngest instructor, do you mean Philip Oswald?”

“Looking at the reaction, it seems that the lady doesn’t know too well. sh*t.”

The head professor grumbled that some idiot had disturbed the beehive for no reason, and took out a well-sealed letter from his bosom and handed it to Lizriel.

“By the way, a person from Yousef Company asked me to pass this on to you. Please read it. They said it was important news.”

“thank you. professor.”

It wasn’t easy for someone like the head professor to do this kind of errand.

Rizriel was slightly moved and opened the letter sealed with the seal of Yousef.

The content of the letter was very simple.

‘While investigating the client using all information, we confirmed the collapse of the Crescent. The number of remaining personnel is less than three, and it is determined that the organization is impossible to maintain. I will return to work as soon as I receive it.’

Lizriel folded the letter again with shaking hands.

“What is it? No, if it’s a secret, there’s no need to tell it.”

Lizriel blinked briefly at the head professor’s question before answering.

“I heard that Crescent is ruined… ?”

“… why?”

“I think I need to find out from now on.”

The content of the letter was not speculative.

If the official document with the seal of the company was false, not one or two people would be decapitated.

That said, it was certain that the old assassination organization called the Crescent had disappeared.

“… Philip? no way?”

She thought about Philip for a moment. Then he narrowed his brows and shook his head.

It’s true that Philip is not an ordinary person, but it seems unlikely that he has anything to do with the collapse of the Crescent.

‘… Could it be a coincidence?’

The details were something I had to find out when I got back to work right away.

“thank you. How should I repay this favor… .”

Stella, the chief of the Black Myo tribe, barely woke up after passing out for several hours. The first thing she did after waking up was thank Philip.

Her face was white as the blood had just begun to stop, and her lips were blue.

“No what… it’s okay. It’s not like I started out to help him. Because it helped me too. Anyway, what should I do with this guy?”

Philip showed his right hand. In his hand was a small kitten.

It was the cat of Tania, the next chieftain of the Black Myo tribe.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she passed out as if falling asleep due to Philip’s choke.

But the moment he saw Philip’s face, he was so frightened that he tucked his tail between his legs and trembled. It seemed that he recognized him as a higher rank.

I think it was because of the fear of death I felt when I was choked.

“Haaagh! Haaagh!”

When Tania met Stella’s face, she whipped her front paws, baring her fangs. It was a scratching momentum right away.

Stella averted her gaze with a miserable expression at the incomprehensible hostility she displayed.

“I’m scolded.”

“Miyah… .”

When Philip showed signs of discomfort, Tania rolled her tail again and made a pitiful noise.

“As you already know, I have to go back to the academy. It’s already been a day, so if you don’t want to get fired, you have to hurry up from now on. What are you going to do from now on?”

Stella closed her eyes at Philip’s question.

In fact, the road ahead was bleak for her. Ten of only a few dozen members were killed or injured. Even if he went out into the world like this, the second Crescent would only aim at the Black Myo.

Philip suddenly proposed to her.

“You seem to have a lot of worries, can I offer you one option?”

“yes?”

“If you don’t have a specific plan, I’ll hire you guys. You don’t have to kill anyone, and you don’t have to risk anything. There are good jobs to use your ability to cross the shadows.”

“… What is it?”

Philip answered Stella’s question with a grin.

“It is information gathering. All I have to do is ask for the information I want. Other than that, how about mail delivery? If you feel it is dangerous, you can refuse it, and if you do that, I will help your species settle into human society.”

Phillip spent several minutes explaining what he was thinking to Stella, who thought for a moment and then nodded.

“If you do that, I will serve you for the rest of my life.”

She had neither the courage nor the reason to refuse an offer from a man with a dragon as his back.

Now that she, the chieftain, was injured, Philip was strong enough to annihilate the remaining Black Myo tribe by himself.

She decided to leave the fate of her race to Philip’s generosity.

Stella got up and knelt at Philip. Philip, startled, sat her down again. The moment she moved, the bandages wrapped around her body were covered in blood.

‘If Privia casts the healing magic once, that much will be cured in no time, but will it really not come anyway?’

Philip grumbled and lifted Tania up.

“So, what is he going to do? Will you take it with you?”

“I am… I will take responsibility somehow.”

“How will you take responsibility? Can you afford it if I let go? Being hurt like that… … .”

As Philip continued to speak, he felt a familiar presence. This unforgettable gigantic presence was that of Privia.

“You did a good job. As expected, he is the heir to the Moonlight Sword.”

She praised Philip as she entered the room where Stella was resting.

“… Why have you come now?”

Philip glanced at Privia with eyes full of resentment. Of course, she didn’t even snort.

“I tortured that worm-like demon, and delivered the contents to Lord. Depending on the result, you may ask the demons for something, so you guys have done the work.”

Privia’s expression brightened a little, as if she had relieved some of the stress she had accumulated while torturing Nepen. So, I would like to give you that kind of information.

‘If this is enough, I could ask for something.’

After making up his mind, Philip opened his mouth.

“Then, could you please do me a favor?”

“That’s it. If it’s not too much, I’ll listen.”

Freevia readily nodded at Philip’s question. There were quite a few things she gained from solving this task, and it was also commendable that Philip solved the remaining tasks neatly.

Philip held Tania in front of Privia.

“I want you to return the spirit of this Black Myo to its original state.”

“Well, you don’t have to.”

Stunned by the words, Stella hurriedly tried to stand up.

Philip reached out and pressed her shoulders to keep her from rising before continuing.

“Comfort and courtesy, please heal this person’s wounds a little.”

Freevia silently pointed her finger at Stella.

“Get better.”

Then Stella suddenly felt her whole body tingle. The body began to regenerate the wounds on its own.

“oh… aaah!”

She just lost her mind. Philip pushed his tongue out again at the dragon magic that Privia had spread.

It was truly an opening.

“That Black Myao woman will be fine in three days as if nothing happened. But this little cat… Give me a moment.”

Freevia hesitated and took over Tania from Philip. Freevia, who had been watching the cat for a while, shook her head.

“Magic can’t solve things that have been ruined by mental pain. It’s the same way you can’t bring a madman to his senses.”

“… What should I do then?”

“How? I’ll take good care of him until he comes back. If you’re lucky, your mind might come back in a few years. By the way, you guys, won’t you go back? There was an uproar about your disappearance from the academy.”

“yes?”

Philip was perplexed. There was no way there would be an uproar just because one instructor didn’t show up for work.

“I heard that a girl called your older sister haunts the whole academy.”

“Alas.”

Felicia deserved it. If he had thought that his younger brother, whom he thought had been rehabilitated, had gone wrong due to the friction with Professor Haslan, he would have stayed that way.

“Let’s go back quickly.”

“okay. What will this cat do?”

Freevia opened the portal. Philip hesitated for a moment, then left a few lines on the floor with his sword.

“I’m holding you for a while. I can’t just leave it here right now.”

Currently, there was no one in the village of Black Cats who could control Tania’s light emission. Phillip licked his lips and crossed the portal.
