The Teachers Who Abandoned Me Are Obsessed With Me

chapter 18



18 – Humbaba Swordsmanship Tournament

Selene struggled with her, trying to get out of my grasp. But I can’t get out of my hands that are causing her magic.

“No, what kind of grip strength… ….”

Selene tried to release my hand with the same magic, but she couldn’t.

“Ah! Okay, let this go!”

I let go of Selene’s shoulders. That’s what it will be.

Selene rubbed her own shoulders and furrowed her brows.

“Ugh, it hurts. How good are your strength stats?”

My strength stat is D.

At the bottom of the Knight Academy, with an average strength of B to C.

Unaware of this, Selene let out a sigh as she misunderstood.

“Haa… Why did you have dinner with a man like this?”

“Please explain.”

“Okay, little. It is the most prestigious competition among aspirants. Only one member of the imperial family participates, and there is an additional point when receiving the master review later.”

Master Judging.

There are about 50 Masters in the Empire.

They all know how to embody the image world, and have excellent martial arts knowledge.

In fact, there are more than 200 people in the empire who can embody the world of imagination, but I know that most of them fail the master screening.

“To become a master, you have to continuously accumulate achievements. Because the master screening is very difficult. These competitions are perfect for building achievements.”

“What are the conditions for participation?”

“…… Once you are a student at Charles Academy, you can participate. Most of them accompany the professor. I heard that Jeanne Gogeun will participate with Sword Saint-sama, but I will be with Professor Lily this time.”

“Aren’t you going with your sister?”

“… ….”

A shadow fell on Selene’s face.

Is it because I was caught following you last time?

Or is it deeper?

I’m not really interested.

“Where is the place?”

“Haa… do you have a device Give it to me, I’ll put up a notice.”

Selene brushed her forehead and held out her palm, and I placed the device on it.

Selene’s expression changed once more.

“It’s very outdated… ….”

For some reason, there is compassion in his expression, but it is a device that he is using well.

Selene let out a sigh and launched something of her own on her device.

“Come on.”

A device facing me.

I received the device from Selene and checked her screen.

October 24th is three days later.

I know that the Duke of Demazière was quite far away from my memory…….

“You have to use teleportation.”

“Of course not. How far is it to the Duke of Demagère?”

Selene says it’s natural, but I don’t know how to teleport.

Should I focus my magic on my legs and run from now on… I was worried.

“All right? I’m going.”

“Did you get a teleportation mage?”

“Of course not.”

“Take me too.”

Use whatever is available.

It’s a pity that I can’t use the gravity chamber after only running for 3 days. So it was better to teleport after using the gravity chamber before the competition.

Selene was dazed at what I said.

Her spirit went out as if she had been told something very ridiculous, and she managed to come back.

“Why me!”

“Are you going to go ahead like this after shamelessly spying on me?”

“Keugh… Cowardly exploit others’ weaknesses.”

“You brought it upon yourself.”

Selene pressed her forehead tightly. It’s not easy to find a teleportation wizard at the academy, so it’s better to borrow Gramberge’s hand.

Selene pressed her forehead for a while to see if she was thinking about her actions, then raised her head to her face of resignation.

“Haa…… Can I just take you?”

“Yes.”

I got caught.

Selene still stared at me helplessly, but then she turned around.

“…… 23Rd Wagon parking lot. Come without delay.”

October 23, the day before the competition.

Participant registration was supposed to be done on that day, so I waited at the appointed place.

The meeting place is the academy wagon parking lot.

I stood in a place without a wagon and checked myself.

I have completely gotten used to the strength and stamina of having reached D rank in the past two days. It’s a sparring in reality, so it’s necessary to fully understand myself. It’s still a disastrous level, but you can make the most of your current level.

I put my hand on the handle of the real sword. The feeling of a real sword after a long time. Can we see blood in this contest?

I turned around.

Selene, Professor Lily, and a wizard are coming from afar.

Selene and Lily’s complexion is not good.

I saw Professor Lily among them.

Lily de Francois.

The 3rd daughter of Count Francoise, the manifestation of the world of images 1. Professor.

I didn’t do anything special in my previous life, but he suddenly kicked me out for being erotic.

It was absurd that I had already heard all the rumors and had to leave as soon as I entered the class.

I don’t have any special feelings right now.

Lily wiggled her hands with her anxious face.

“Li, are you doing this because Lily is the third daughter? Why is Evan involved in moving Selene?”

“Professor, I am not doing this because I want to. I told you. It’s just like moving.”

“Yeah, I understand that… I am afraid of rumors.”

Seeing as he still murmurs the rumors he heard somewhere, he’s a human who hasn’t changed.

I shook my head.

Thinking without productivity is a waste of time.

“Eggplant.”

As I looked at Selene and said, Selene gave a suspicious expression.

“You are well prepared, right? No matter how much you take me at your request, when I see you…… Whoa, the Humbaba swordsmanship competition is very dangerous. It’s normal to get hurt, and limbs can fall off.”

There is a danger of limbs being cut off.

The sea I wished for. It’s different from the academy, which is like children’s play.

I didn’t answer.

Selene stared at me, then she turned her head away.

“Do whatever you want. Robert, please move.”

“Yes, little lady.”

The wizard in the blue hood bowed. Are you from Gramberg?

It is a respectful title.

The wizard immediately chanted an incantation and teleported away. The whole area is bathed in light. A wave of magical energy that connects long distances.

“Lily, this seat is uncomfortable… ….”

Lily kept talking nonsense.

As soon as I got away from them at the right time, I thought.

Instantly, the whole field of vision was stained with light.

When the light faded, a loud sound rang in my ears.

When you open your eyes, you can see a large Colosseum and crowds.

There were banners cheering for the participants here and there, and the crowd was mixed, both participants and spectators.

The Colosseum of the Duke of Demagier.

It seems to have arrived just right.

“This way.”

Selene took the lead.

There are crowds everywhere, but there is one place with a long line.

Looks like there is a waiting line for applications.

I went to the end of the line, scanning the line.

Many of the participants wore armor. At first glance, they look like knights, but are they actually wannabes?

At least one or two seem useful.

‘I can hunt one or two witches.’

The Witch King’s minions.

I couldn’t deal with it with quite a few articles.

Of course, most of them are at the student level.

He hides his body with shiny armor, but his level can be judged from his sluggish movements.

Selene said while looking at the same place as me.

“Students from all over the country gathered. Regional qualifiers are held every year, but you have to pass the regional qualifiers at least once to participate in the central competition. But Charles Academy is the best among swordsman academies, so you can participate without regional qualifiers.”

So you’re saying that the guys here are filtered out in each constituency?

…… It’s normal for something like that.

The young knights I saw when I was hunting down the Witch King were stronger.

When I put on a sullen face, Selene said yes or no, puffed out her chest and pointed at herself with her thumb.

“By the way, I am the winner of the 30th Northern Qualifier. When people say Selene in the North, they say champion.”

“I see.”

It was a fact I wasn’t curious about at all, but I heard it once I told it.

Are you talking about rare tournaments?

Selene was more talkative than I thought.

“And… There it is, that unlucky thing.”

Selene’s proud face coolly settles down.

The place she pointed to was Jeanne and the Sword Saint Mayer. It would be nice if the Swordsman would participate, but since it’s an aspiring contest, Jeanne will participate. This is a bit disappointing

“Jane is the winner of the 30th Southern Preliminary Round. She won comfortably in a warm region.”

“That’s right, little lady!”

The sorceress of Gramberge, who had been quiet all this time, rubbed her hands together and agreed.

Whether the environment is cold or warm, I think that skill is important in the end.

I didn’t say anything because I hadn’t participated in the preliminaries there.

“Okay, and I’ll tell you who to watch out for. First of all, the tall knight…….”

Selene eagerly explained that she was an opponent to be avoided, but she didn’t listen.

When she puts her sword against any opponent, the answer comes out.

I don’t want to open the lid beforehand.

I closed my eyes.

I meditated.

“Hey, hey! Are you listening to me? If people do you a favor, you should listen!”

Selene whips her hands in front of my eyes, but falls into meditation.

Selene’s voice dwindled.

It seems that the information about the tournament is over, so there is no reason to listen more.

After a while, I opened my eyes when I realized that there was no one in front of me.

A male clerk looking up at me with an expressionless face.

Looks like it’s my turn to apply now.

Selene came a little closer to me with a tired face.

“How do you open your eyes on your turn, you are amazing too.”

“I hate wasting time.”

I passed Selene and handed over the device. The male clerk took the device, scanned it with magic, and asked me how to participate.

“Would you like to use your real name? Or anonymously?”

I asked about the Humbaba Swordsmanship Competition on the student bulletin board for the past few days, and I found out that you can participate anonymously.

I chose to remain anonymous.

At this point, I’m thinking of creating a new identity.

As a student, you have a lot of limitations in dealing with many strong players.

I need an identity that can run amok.

“Do it anonymously. I will tell you the alias on the day.”

“Okay.”

I made my decision and the clerk calmly recorded my information. Selene looked at me curiously.

“You can use your real name, why are you anonymous?”

“I don’t know.”

At my words, Selene tilted her head.
