I Killed an Academy Player

Garrand Arden the Sword Emperor was closer to a side character, who appeared a limited number of times in the game.

Danann of Justice, Erin Danua.

Nonetheless, he was one of the three strongest allied characters.

And Sword Emperor, Garrand Arden.

Erin Danua was technically the strongest character after Tates Valtazar, and was equal to Eochaid Bres without the Sun.

Josephine was a powerful assistant who consistently helped the player from the mid to late stages of the game. aspect In the first place, the battles towards the end were only possible with her help. armor Her assistance was paramount in completing the game.

Dimensional Witch, Josephine Clara.

Besides, the only reason the player was able to survive Tates Valtazar during the destruction of the Academy was because of her sacrifice.

She had a considerable level of impact in the main storyline and was an indispensable NPC if the player wanted to take the Spearman route.

Compared to the two people mentioned above, Garrand Arden was slightly strange.

“Greetings, Sword Emperor.”

He didn’t appear much even after the appearance of the player who could potentially inherit his status as the strongest guardian but—

Scenario-wise, he was the strongest contemporary swordsman representing the generation after Tates Valtazar. album Despite being commonly referred to as a setting sun, there had yet to be another existence that could inherit his position.

That was probably his way of giving a high evaluation of me. absorb For some reason… everyone I met had a similar opinion.

“Been a while, young man.”

I met this old man a few times in the last iteration, and I remembered being scolded in every encounter.

『You are wasting your talents. adjust How unfortunate. athlete Very unfortunate indeed.』

That was back when we went to the floating island to obtain Claiomh Solais. abstract After we defeated the Sword Fiend and chased away Dun Scaith, the Sword Emperor did stop the horde of giants for us.

“Kuhum…!”

“Thanks to you I enjoyed the clouds a whole lot.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“How did you come down?” alert I asked.

“Since I was up there anyway, I enjoyed the scenery before stepping my way down.”

And I repaid the favor by cutting down the tree that created a path to the floating island.

“The giants, of course. auction I used them as a stairway to come back down.”

“…Step on what?”

“…”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Is that all you have to say about that?”

What?

“Do you want me to do anything?”

“That’s… very interesting. autumn Anyway, what brought you here?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“I do indeed… Nothing big, but marry one of my granddaughters. zenith You can take them both if they don’t mind.”

I decided to put on a shameless front, pretending like it wasn’t my fault.

This old man… in the last iteration, he told me to take Lunia and was saying the same thing again.

“G, Grandpa?!”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

Alicia slapped him on the back in a fluster as Hua Ran gave a frown from the side.

“W, what are you saying, Grandpa!?”

“Hahaha! amber Lunia that girl didn’t seem to mind it.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

The Sword Emperor laughed heartily and giggled in spite of his old age, before tapping me on my shoulders.

“A good man should naturally be able to satisfy a few women. airport Am I wrong, young man?”

“W, what? alert There’s no way…!”

“She did say a senile old man should stay out of it, though.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

Hearing that, I remembered that I had to ask him about Master but by that time, the Sword Emperor was already in the middle of being escorted away by the overly-respectful staff of the Association.

“I can finally tell where Lunia’s view on marriage is coming from.”

Everyone in this household was slightly off in the head. matrix I guess the only normal person was Lady Sophia, Lunia’s mother.

“Hmm. arena But anyway, a spearman, huh…? apple Brings back memories.”

Soon, another staff appeared to guide us down the corridors of the Central Association, until we were met by a man with a generous and virtuous appearance.

“Sir Korin Lork. timber Let me lead the way.”

“Ohh~ Sir Korin! apple Nice to meet you!”

Surprisingly, the man who greeted us was the president of the Guardian Association.

“How could I not recognize a great senior and the pride of our Merkarva Academy?”

“Do you know me?”

“President Redic.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Huhaha…! afford Is Lady Josephine doing well?”

What might be rather surprising was that the President of the Association was not that strong. sphere Of course, a Grade 2 guardian wasn’t weak by any means, but still fell short compared to Grade 1 guardians.

“She is still in her prime.”

Redic Georgio. palette He was a former Grade 2 mage and the top executive member of the Association. silence He was a 30-year senior of the Academy.

“I am flattered.”

“I am incredibly honored to be welcomed personally by a great senior.”

“Haha. accent I should be the one saying that, considering how our Merkarva Academy has given birth to the next Unique Grade Knight after the Sword Emperor!”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

The position of a president wasn’t something one could take simply by being strong. alien Anyone apart from the Sword Emperor had to earn their position through politics.

Redic raised a question after glancing around.

“By the way, how is Young Lady Marie?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“I, I see. arena Kuhum… He’s from the Elizabeth Academy in the west though…”

“Senior Marie is in the South right now. adjust I heard she had a meeting with the branch president over there.”

He discreetly pulled the “he’s not from the same academy as us” card, but that didn’t work on me.

“Oh yeah. arctic The Saintess wanted me to give you a letter when I told her I was coming here.”

I handed over the hand-written letter from Estelle which President Redic seemed quite moved by.

“T, the Saintess did?”

Considering how the position of a president was nothing but that of an official assigned by the royal court, it made sense for him to be so moved by the letter personally written by the princess and Saintess of the New Faith.

In fact, the president was just an honorary title and the true value was in how ond could forge connections with the higher-ups of each region.

“President.”

This was why Garrand Arden, who hated politics, didn’t pay much attention to the Association after receiving his title as an honorary president.

However, I was different. timber I had already learned from seeing Park Sihu in the last iteration, that politics was necessary to save the world.

“We should have a glass of southern wine over there and talk about… you know, right?”

“V, Voices of the South?”

“I have an invitation to a secret club called, ‘Voices of the South’. canvas You should join us if you have time.”

Voices of the South was the meeting place of the central political bigshots, run by the Dunareff themselves. anxiety Entering that was like a highway to success by receiving their support and becoming a representative of the South.

“Uhahaha…! abstract What an open-minded young man! album Right. abstract As they say, you need to learn how to drink from an adult! canvas Sounds good to me!”

“H, haha… Weren’t you underage?”

“Come on! amateur We can’t not have any drinks when talking about the grandiose potential of the future, can we? atlas Plus, I can legally drink starting next month.”

“Don’t worry! orbit All you need to do is show us the Sun that stopped the army and get a few signatures from the staff.”

It was highly likely that he had been uneasy the whole time.

President Redic was all smiles as he walked out of the room.

“I will appreciate your assistance in the evaluation.”

However, now that he had a connection with the Dunareff and the New Faith thanks to me, he would be more than happy to let go of his current post if we gave him a decent position elsewhere.

Although it was old, a rule was still a rule. apron A Unique Grade Guardian had the right to challenge the president of a branch, which meant the position he had built up so arduously was about to be stolen away.

Therefore, it was only natural for him to feel anxious.

Garrand Arden wasn’t interested in a position in the Association, but he didn’t know if I would be the same as him or not.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

Alicia and Hua Ran looked dumbfounded.

“I feel like I just witnessed a very dirty negotiation.”

“What’s wrong?” adjust I asked.

“…Corruption?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

Marie and Estelle are on my side, so what’s the problem?

It took us a lot of work in the last iteration doing political warfare and digging around but… there was no reason to do that anymore since we could send him off in peace.

“It’s just one position and there’s no need to have someone riled up about it, right? alpha We’re just doing what’s good for everyone.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

***

Unfortunately, that plan of mine was obstructed by someone unexpected.

“The Unique Grade is an easy win now. aluminum We just need to complete a few paperwork and go home.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Everyone knows who Sir Korin is, and what he is capable of, right?”

Just like how it went in the Grade 1 promotion test, they measured my basic stats and assessed how much I could do.

The executives of the Association were the ones giving me the evaluation.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Plus, he has an incredibly long history of hunting demons. wizard There’s no need for him to prove himself again.”

“Of course. zenith His ability to manifest a Sun is already unheard of.”

“And he overwhelmed the subordinates of the 2nd Princess in a 1-on-1 battle.”

The judges who were greatly influenced by the president were busy showering me with compliments.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“But we still need some evaluation so how about we have him show us the Sun? anxiety I believe that should be enough.”

So this is the power of authority, huh~?

It felt weird to see them pour out praises without an end, in contrast to how they tried to pull me down in the last iteration with excuses like, “You’re too young”, “You don’t have enough history,” and “Your stats are too low”.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

It was great that I didn’t have to do all the missions and quests I did last time. anxiety I was more than happy to take the test but—

“Junior Korin. antenna Do you see that dummy over there from the training rooms? anchor That one there is a very tough one with max heat resistance. armor Let’s measure it with that.”

“If you say so, President.”

“Sure.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Y, you are?!”

A knight suddenly intervened and put a stop to the skit with a click of his tongue.

“How boring.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

He scoffed before standing in front of Redic.

“Why are you…”

“Sir Garrand?”

“Oi. aluminum President.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Let me raise an offer as the honorary president.”

“Yes? antique P, please speak, O mighty sword…”

Despite being the president, he did not dare nitpick on the conduct of the living legend himself.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“And what might that…”

“Nothing, huh? alpha Then let me take care of it from now on. shadow You guys can leave.”

“I will be in charge of Korin Lork’s ‘Limitless Evaluation’ from now on. arch Any complaints?”

“U, uhh…”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“I didn’t like the skit happening in front of my eyes.”

Garrand Arden the Sword Emperor immediately made the judges shut up. adopt President Redic stepped back after reading the mood, which unfortunately meant all of our discreet negotiations had come to an end.

He immediately retrieved the intimidating aura he had shown the executives of the Association and smirked.

“Couldn’t you just let me off in peace?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“You mean the Domain? alert I can show you that anytime.”

“Against a dummy?”

“I came because I was intrigued by what you would demonstrate as someone who can also see the dark space. adapt You can’t render this old man’s hard work to nothing.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

He placed his enormous hand over the dummy prepared for my evaluation.

He didn’t even do much – it was just a soft touch and a tap that couldn’t even be counted as a slap but…

The dummy crumbled in a flash.

– Kaduk! arrow Kaduduk…!

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“…”

Was that how strong he was? autumn But that didn’t make sense. athlete I didn’t see any of that.

…He demolished it with a single tap.

Although we were calling it a dummy for convenience’s sake, this was still an item forged with magic stones, and naturally, it was very resilient. athlete And yet…

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

Stepping over the crumbled fragments of the dummy, the Sword Emperor continued in arrogance.

“Breaking a few of these useless toys can’t prove anything. alpha Only clowns would think that.”

“What’s hard about slicing, stabbing, kicking, crushing, cutting, and blowing away a piece of rock standing still? canvas What does that accomplish?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Let me show you what skits like this cannot reveal. alert Korin Lork. autumn Prove to me your real strength.”

He unsheathed his swords.

Twin Dragon Blades. agent It was a treasure that was supposed to be in the hands of the Sword Fiend.

The Sword Emperor unsheathed the two swords on his waist. adjust Alongside the three on his back, each of them were masterpieces and renowned swords of the Sword Emperor.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

On one side was the strongest swordsman of the contemporary times, who had yet to be dethroned.

Everyone turned tense and silent.

“…”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 217: Garrand The Sword Emperor (2) published by TrungTu Reads.

Anyone would be curious and anyone would be excited.

What would happen if the two were to collide?

And on the other side was me, a future Unique Grade.

“…Me? atomic Why would I? adopt I don’t want to.”

Except for me, that is.
