Pure Love Dark Knight of the Academy

10-4. There are some things that don’t help even if you shyly run away.

***

How long had it been since he had swung his sword like that? As dusk fell, night began to come.

“From my point of view, the downside of Drake style swordsmanship is the load on the body.”

“Is that so? Isn’t it speed?”

“It’s my feeling, but isn’t blowing the wind the most difficult? Richt?”

A time when you don’t have to catch monsters. Kainel and I were currently checking each other’s weaknesses.

“That’s right. Not using mana, but enduring with pure physical strength….”

“Is it okay to use it continuously? It.”

“It’s me, not Mr. Kynell.”

“..It’s kind of annoying. Licht.”

Actually, it wasn’t okay. I tried bluffing, but it would not be enough when dealing with the demon lord. Basically, they were guys with a second or higher phase.

“The biggest drawback in my opinion is that it is slow. We need to prepare in advance.”

Even if you try to break through the limits of speed with Wolf Fang. It is unfavorable for short-term battles.

Now the only way for me to protect our saintess from the cult of warriors is to risk my life or do something crazy.

Or both.

‘I feel safe in the imperial family. I can’t harm her well-being with my personal greed.’

He habitually put his hand on the chin of his helmet.

Should I tell you about the demon lords? No…. Nine out of ten they’re going to drag me to the torture chamber, questioning the source of the information.

At that time, a red-haired wizard passed by.

“Kai. I got a tent from the professors. Now, Mr. Helm’s share here too!”

“Ah, thank you. Miss Ariel.”

“You seem to be feeling a little better now? I’m glad…!”

Seeing this, I remembered the first time I met the warrior couple. Back then, I pretended to be the crown prince.

“Licht, why..?”

Even in the middle of the night, I gazed at the glass knight shining in the moonlight. I didn’t know the flag could be retrieved this way. It’s like I fell for my trick.

‘What? Wait a minute.’

In , Ariel is described in a way that the prince has never met. Could this have been wrong because of my intervention?

“Mr. Mardol. Are you meeting Miss Ariel for the first time at this academy?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

Then, does the meaning of being a beta tester mean that the player fixes the shortcomings that were sprinkled in the sequel? Losing a cow and repairing the barn.

You’re really evil. Maker guy. I recognized it from the time our saintess made misfortune. The dizziness struck again.

“Licht, are you okay? Why are you doing this again?”

“..There is such a thing.”

I sighed. As I stared helplessly at the ground, Kynell asked me worriedly.

“..Anyway, Mr. Kinel, you’d better use the holy sword more. There are things like flying around or causing explosions, right?”

“Is there such a thing..?”

As I advised, the blonde-haired hero showed a surprised look with his eyes wide open. Well, it is said that he trained alone without a proper teacher.

“Do you want to fight with me? Can you tell me directly?”

He lacks a lot of actual combat experience, and he is still a rookie to be called a warrior.

“No, today is fine. You should rest too Licht.”

But contrary to my expectations, Kynell shook her head.

“..Yes?”

“You look really tired today, your hands are shaking from earlier.”

A story I heard from Nex. Apparently, if only the saintess was involved, the body reacted right away like this.

“It’s okay. Maybe.”

I heard the sensation of being stabbed in the sun dozens of times for lying, but I mustn’t show weakness. A situation where you don’t know when the demon king will attack.

I can’t put my feelings first….

“Ha.. Really. All right, follow me. Licht.”

As soon as he heard my answer, the warrior of light wrinkled his brow and took me for a walk through the forest.

A late night with rustling sounds of stepping on the grass and insects chirping.

What is it, are you mad at me? I didn’t do anything that would upset my heart.

“..What happened all of a sudden?”

“Hmm. Would be nice here You can see our campfire over there, so you won’t get lost.”

The warrior who stepped up to the tree stump used it as a chair and sat down.

“Let’s talk. Licht.”

He asked for a conversation with me saying something he had heard somewhere. Could it be that Ariel and her relationship level is going up?

“..Do you need dating coaching?”

“No, it’s the other way around. Licht.”

Kynell put one of her feet on his lap and continued her words.

“I was in bad shape this morning. Because of that white-haired woman.”

A sentence that pierces the heart. I’ll have to pretend I don’t know. There’s no way Yellowy next door doesn’t notice.

“What are you talking about? I just felt bad.”

A cold sweat broke out inside the helmet. She concocted her words out of her congested heart.

“..I don’t notice, but I have a good intuition, right?”

But this time it didn’t work. The warrior’s blue eyes narrowed, and her mouth opened as if in doubt.

“Richt, you suddenly disappeared a few days ago. Did you think I wouldn’t be surprised?”

“..I knew you would.”

“You showed up in two days, not a few hours. I would have just passed it on for a day or so….”

I’m not normally this kind of guy. Are you paying attention while staying with me? It was similar to digging into the wrong part one by one.

“I just had some work.”

“A guy like that wants to spread the word while skipping class? How did you get in during the dorm curfew?”

It was transferred to the purple phoenix. Oh yeah. It was a really questionable situation for someone who didn’t know. Yellowy next door scolded me as if it were absurd.

“Did you have an affair with that beautiful white-haired person again?”

Two days suddenly disappeared.

“Answer me. What the hell happened.”

“…”

A colleague keeps his mouth shut after returning as if he had never done that.

“..Everything you guessed is correct.”

“As expected. Even if you can’t lie, you can’t. Licht.”

A person you consider a friend is doing this, and you can’t help but be angry with him.

“In this situation, that person is in danger.”

“..What? Is that why you skipped class without telling us before?”

“Yes. Mr. Cainell. Exactly.”

I have no choice but to tell you the truth. I started talking as if I had been caught.

“Who the hell are you?”

“..There is someone who will soon be chosen as the 3rd generation saint.”

“Really? Hey, what you said was never wrong.”

No one will listen. I’m on the side of Ariel, and at this distance, even the crown prince wouldn’t interfere.

Perhaps remembering the time when she learned the secret of the holy sword, the hero was listening to me, nodding her head.

“..My life was saved thanks to him.”

“The sound you hear sounds pretty old. Licht.”

“It was 15 years ago.”

If you add up the 10 years I lived thanks to her in her reality and the 5 years I wielded her sword without losing the meaning of her life even after being possessed by her.

“What…? Have you been watching since you were little? Is it very long?”

“No way. The saintess doesn’t know me.”

This is the story of her unrequited love that is exactly 15 years old. Not a little surprised, her warrior’s mouth was hanging open.

“Then.. Why the hell..?”

“I am just trying to repay the favor. She made her into debt without her knowledge.”

Cleanly acknowledged. Maybe now is the time to let go. If we were going to meet sooner, it was the period we would have met.

“Because he has a bit of bad luck. I had to protect….”

“That’s what happened this morning..? What are you dangerous for?”

Kinel has a serious expression. Also, people are good.

“Kinel-san, don’t you have some guesses?”

“..No way.”

“Yes, that is unlikely. The warrior school.”

I smiled bitterly under the helmet. Kainel must have suffered a lot because of the demon king. Is it possible to talk so easily?

“..Isn’t it possible with your skills? To protect that gray-haired saintess.”

“It’s not enough. It’s absolutely not enough.”

Kinel is saying this because he has never faced the devil. The power to cover the world with concepts. It is different from something as simple as magic or swordsmanship.

‘I thought I would at least learn about Yongsal and meet him. Demon Kings.’

If you learn the ultimate skill, you will be able to deal with it to some extent, but…. My skills are still not enough. Bitter water came up because I was weak and fragile myself.

“You are at the level of a master of swordsmanship. Licht.”

“..Who the hell is the Sword Master? I’m dumbfounded.”

I was arrogant at the sudden word. I didn’t show my expression because I was wearing a helmet, but my voice contained anger.

“If you can’t even protect the people you want to protect with a sword, what is a sword ‘master’? The dog next door that passed by will laugh. Mr. Cainell.”

“hahahaha. Is that what you want me to hear?”

I became a little more sincere. Come to think of it, I came to this level just by looking at our saintess. Because I can’t even see the nose.

“..Well. In fact, I think it was unfair.”

“But if it’s as hard as you are, it’s really sincere. Let’s meet up and have dinner together.”

“Is this the revenge of the last time? This time in reverse, is it dating coaching?”

Even if I talk to the blonde-haired hero like this, the grand route won’t go wrong. Even if I already tried to break the crown prince’s flag, it was useless.

“That’s what it says. When you graduate, there will be a fuss around you to snatch it away.”

“Isn’t that the same for Mr. Kinel? As long as you use your sword well.”

“I have Ariel.”

The warrior smiled lightly and said to me lightly. It’s just that I don’t notice, but it was nice to be honest in this aspect.

“That went well.”

It’s been a while since I had a proper smile on my lips. How many times have you laughed at yourself like this in the past few days? But why don’t you confess? Why aren’t you dating?

“But you look like a lifesaver…. Before that, I want you to hurry up and make a point of contact.”

“..Me?”

“Well, even if that person doesn’t know you, if she is a saint, wouldn’t she have been rescued while listening to prayers from afar?”

“..It is almost similar.”

As expected, the warrior of light. This is why I hated the negative side of Lupus. After all, the main character should be like this. Pierce the painful part precisely.

“My face is ugly, so I probably won’t be that popular.”

“..Do you have anything?”

“The burn marks are severe. It’s been quite a while, too.”

Only then did Kainel let out her short sigh and pat her on the shoulder as if telling me to cheer up.

“..Never mind. What was it?”

“Would you like to take a look?”

“Yes. I’ll have to see how scared she is that she always uses honorifics. Licht.”

Her shoulder count also belongs to the saintess, so why is she so involved with the men?

Tacky─.

“Well, that’s why I always covered up and ate.”

“…”

She opened her face mask and revealed her face to the warrior.

Excluding the saintess in the game, it’s probably the first time for Kainel. Something was wrong with her. She’s basically a good person, so that’s fine.

Sweat kept dripping from her palms, afraid that she might hate me.

“Hey, Licht. I’m really sorry to say this.”

Kainel took a good look at my face and said in a completely unexpected tone.

“..I think you should be moderately handsome?”

A story I’ve never heard before. It can’t be. He must be telling me positively to cheer me up. I was a bit embarrassed by the remark that was so uplifting.

“Just kidding. People around me have been swearing at me since long ago….”

“You are a deceiver. Ha.. How do you buy this because it’s unfair.”

Even after my explanation, he looked up at the night sky and sighed as if he didn’t understand. She closed the front of her helmet again to hide her face.

“So… I don’t see a problem with this. What’s wrong with the burn marks? People who look at you strangely are bad.”

“..Isn’t it that easy to be human?”

“You seem to really like that saintess. Seeing how flustered you were earlier.”

“Does it stand out like that?”

Then the blonde haired warrior nodded her head and smiled at me. If it’s enough for Nex to notice, it’s better to show off.

“Try at least once. Warriors or whatever. You just have to defeat them all.”

Perhaps he was tired from talking for a long time, he stretched out his arms and told me an optimistic story.

“..To be honest, I hope you will be happy without someone like me.”

A nameless saintess who was already unhappy in And . If you can be happy without me, that’s the best.

‘I even possessed a game, but that won’t happen. It must be another series of bad incidents.’

“What is more important, that person’s happiness and you?”

“..Isn’t it obvious?”

Kinel didn’t stop talking, whether or not he knew how dark I felt just thinking about it.

“It’s a saintess.”

I didn’t even think about it and spit it out right away.

“..He really is a genuine man. Training to the level of a sword master to protect someone you love.”

“Because this world is hard for a good and naive person to live in.”

It’s because the sequel is too old.

For Ariel’s sake, you’ll have to do something later. At the time of , At least one person had become a hero. He was envious of his blonde hair, not knowing his future.

“So, are you really not going to do anything? Why don’t you ask Mardol? Ask them to find the ‘nameless saint’. You must be a high-ranking person.”

“I did it the other way. Please take good care of me when I am not there.”

I already did it earlier and came back. Because Flag is driven to the prince’s route, there’s no room for me to squeeze in.

“..Is that really going to work?”

“I think true love is when you can throw away the feelings you love for that person if you really like them. Cainel….”

Brush.

At that time, I stopped talking after pretending to be popular.

“Mr. Mardol?”

“..What are you doing? Richt?”

A shiny, heavy-glovened glass knight found me and Kainel and approached. I can’t believe I came here to put on the brakes.

“It’s just a game of truth between men…. No, we talked about this and that.”

“Yes. That’s right. Mardol.”

“..I see.”

Only then did the glass knight nod his head. I bet you didn’t listen to what I said.

“Mr. Mardol. Did you hear what I’m talking about…?”

“Yes, a little.”

It’s already ruined. I didn’t check it later, but I asked because I was afraid that she would make fun of me for revealing my feelings in front of the saintess.

***

Fine set out to find the two men who suddenly disappeared. My heart kept beating like fate.

“..Mardol. Mr. Pugu and Kai, where did you go?”

“I don’t know, Ariel.”

The red-haired wizard next to me has been worried.

So, when we got to the tree stump part.

“..He really is a genuine man. Training to the level of a sword master to protect someone you love.”

I started overhearing the part where the blonde-haired hero said this.

And the case leads to the present.

“..Licht. You are strong too.”

It was a decision she made after listening to her story. Unusual remarks such as being able to protect even if weak,

“Are you saying that again….”

“Your heart is strong.”

That’s the whole reason why he kept showing his clumsy appearance even though he was incredibly strong.

“..Me? I hope.”

“A strong person.”

Richt raised his sword for the person he liked. Because she noticed what she was doing.

‘It’s different from me.’

Fine thought quietly to herself. The wolf ears pricked up inside the helmet.

“..Saint, are you strong?”

Anyone who has reached this level would be in the class of a strong man. Because it was Licht, who won first place in the practical test with only swordsmanship and no mana.

“..Yes, I am a person who raises both hands and feet.”

“I see.”

What kind of person is this? Could it be the old teacher he came to yearn for? His flustered appearance increased. He seemed to be lying, but he also seemed serious.

“..I want to compete. Licht.”

“Absolutely not. Never.”

Seeing the man wearing the black knight’s helmet sighing heavily, I began to be interested in her as a nameless saint.
