Became a Third-Rate Villain in the Hero Academy

171 – All Mine (3)

Suss, Suss─

Silence lingered in the training ground.

“Hmm…”

“·······.”

At some point, Theo found a suitable place and sat down. Aisha sits awkwardly next to him.

Their eyes were on Siena and Irene in the center of the training ground.

Sienna, whose smile had disappeared just before, looked at Irene and smiled.

“I will give up the first attack, Miss Irene. The sword demon said that knights yield the first attack to the weak?”

Sienna’s smile only raised one corner of her mouth.

It was a so-called rotten cow. It wasn’t Irene who didn’t know that.

“That is true, but there are more cases in which the elders give up the first ball to their younger juniors.”

Irene smiled like Siena, with only one corner of her mouth raised.

Did they say that a true confrontation begins before swords meet? It was exactly that situation.

Isha was surprised and opened her mouth.

‘Wow, wow… A lot of fun…!’

She was traumatized about fighting, but it is one thing for her to fight herself and to watch it.

When Isha couldn’t take her eyes off the nerves in front of her eyes.

“Then I will take it without hesitation, Miss Sienna.”

Irene rushed at Siena.

Wedge love liquid—!

Irene’s longsword quickly pierced Sienna’s right shoulder.

“Huh.”

But instead of lightly blocking Irene’s longsword, Sienna dodged it and stabbed Irene’s right shoulder like water.

“Hmph.”

Likewise, Irene lightly dodged Sienna’s stab and backstepped her behind her to distance her.

‘Are you saying you don’t have the heart to do it in earnest yet, Miss Siena?’

Irene recalled Siena’s swordsmanship, which she had previously shown against her Julia. Sienna was playing with Julia, who was the only one among the first-year knights at the Faculty of Knights who possessed master-level attributes.

······But it’s just such a simple counterattack.

It was proof that Siena had no intention of doing it in earnest.

‘I’ll see how long it will come out like that.’

That attitude stimulated Irene’s rebellion, who valued her honor.

“Ha-ah!”

Irene kicked the ground with her left foot. In an instant, Irene approached Sienna’s chin.

At her fingertips, the practice longsword began to dance swiftly.

Previous 11 high-speed stabs against Neike during the Faculty of Engineering Idai tournament.

That nameless technology was implemented again through Irene’s hands.

Sienna’s eyes widened slightly.

“Hmm.”

Siena thought of quickly swinging her triple sword and cutting off all of Irene’s stabs.

However, Irene’s capabilities were more developed than during Neike’s time, and Siena was not paying attention.

She was not strong enough to parry all attacks.

“Whoops, I tried to cut it all out, but it’s a pity.”

Instead of parrying her attack, Siena lightly stabbed Irene’s right shoulder blade with her sharp sword, the center of her attack.

“Keu, keuuk!”

Irene’s attack stopped immediately.

Siena sealed the core of her attack in less than a second.

Siena said happily.

“Oh. That’s an interesting technique, Miss Irene. Try one more time.”

“I will go again.”

Although the number of spleen was blocked at once, Irene did not give up.

‘As expected, Miss Siena has a high level of fundamental understanding of swordsmanship. The movement of the body is also very light. Then······.’

Irene immediately envisioned another technique with her cold eyes. Imagining was a variation of one of the Arslan family’s arcane techniques.

“Haa-ap!”

Irene raised her longsword wide, charged at Sienna, and swung it from top to bottom.

“Is this a slash instead of a stab?”

Sienna raised her sharp sword and stabbed the longsword’s slashing path. She intended to seal the core of her attack this time as well.

However, Irene was not easy enough to be beaten by the same number again.

Buuung—!

Irene did not swing her longsword all the way and retrieved it on the way, then she turned around in the opposite direction and cut it.

It was a skill that was close to a feat, combining extremely detailed sword control and physical strength.

“!”

Sienna avoided Irene’s sword strike by stepping on her backstep without colliding her sword.

A faint smile appeared on Irene’s lips.

‘It works! It was worthwhile to train at the mock training ground of the Department of Bravery!’

Irene didn’t lose her momentum and immediately swung her longsword.

Whoo- whoo– whoo!

Although less accurate than stabbing, Irene’s hand unleashed a series of slashes with such power as to split a rock.

Siena didn’t fight back, she was only focused on avoiding Irene’s sword attack.

Aisha’s eyes widened as she watched the scene.

‘Even though she’s the head of the engineering department… Was Miss Irene that good?’

Isha was aware of Siena’s skills to some extent. It was because during her last semester, she overtook Sienna to simply subdue one of her instructors with her swordsmanship for bothering her.

It’s a shame she watched secretly herself, if she got publicized, her instructor would have lost her job for some sort of reputational downgrade.

‘Sienna’s swordsmanship is already superior to that of most of her warriors.’

But Sienna is only staying in the 70th place in the class because she is annoying. I don’t understand it at all from Aisha’s point of view.

Isha said to Theo, who was watching her sparring as well.

“Theo, Miss Irene will win…?”

“Hmm.”

Theo’s mouth came out with words that were different from Aisha’s expectations.

“No, Siena wins. She’s not serious at all now.”

Theo continued, pointing Sienna with her finger.

“Look at that. Irene’s sword couldn’t even brush Sienna’s collar. Even if she was a real sword, it would have been the same. She seemingly drives Irene, but Sienna is just enjoying herself right now. Judging by her movements, it seems that she is not even being helped by the spirits.”

“Ah…”

At Theo’s words, Aisha again focused on Siena and Irene’s movements.

By changing the direction of her thoughts, Eisha’s trait [Her sharp vision] Works normally.

‘Miss Irene’s attacks are unstoppable, but most of them are large and consume a lot of her stamina. However, Siena doesn’t fight and only dodges, so her stamina consumption is minimized ······. If Siena continues to avoid it, she will… In the long run…’

It was clear that Sienna would take the advantage. However, that is a hypothesis that can only be established if Siena continues to avoid Irene’s sword.

It was obvious that even if Irene allowed a single wild attack, the situation would change completely.

“By the way, wouldn’t it make a difference if Miss Irene got even one hit? The sword pressure is unusual.”

“No, I won’t be able to hit it.”

Theo, who spoke emphatically, shut her mouth.

The reason wasn’t because of the skill difference between Irene and Sienna. It was because Siena knew all of Irene’s techniques.

This is because Irene’s family, Aslan, was one of the families that were created long ago under the influence of the Great Forest Sword Demon who traveled to the continent.

Of course, the arcane swordsmanship of the Aslan family, which Irene is currently using, was also created under the teachings of the great forest swordsman.

And Siena’s swordsmanship teacher is the Great Forest Sword Demon.

‘It’s a skill, Siena must have seen that swordsmanship for at least several decades.’

Sienna’s age is about 150 years old. Even if she only held the sword for half of that time, she would have been holding the sword for 70 to 80 years.

Just as Theo thought, Irene frowned as she sighed heavily.

“Haa, haa, haa…”

Irene bit her lip and looked up at Siena with her tired eyes.

He swung his sword vigorously, and it was a skill he had never shown to anyone. However, Sienna avoided everything as if she knew in advance where her sword was going.

“Uh, how…”

“Whoops, Miss Irene. Sorry. You probably won’t be able to beat me in your lifetime. As long as you use your skills.”

Sienna summoned her spirits and let them sweat.

“Instead, other people besides me should be able to win, right? That way, I’ll be by your side to protect Theo.”

Sienna grabbed her sword.

From noble mtl dot com

“Look carefully. It’s a skill I learned at a time when I don’t want to remember it, so I’ll show it only once.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Sienna’s sword moved.

Anger, jealousy, sadness, joy, beauty, etc.

I didn’t feel any human emotions at the tip of her sword.

······I just felt a sense of purpose to put the sword in the right place.

“Ah, ah.”

Irene’s eyes widened.

Smart, she figured it out right away. That the swordsmanship Sienna is using is the root of the swordsmanship she is using.
