Became the Son-in-Law of the Traitorous Family

6. The gate didn’t open in the first month of marriage – 01

How much time had passed like that?

I managed to open my eyes, feeling hazy as if I had just woken up from anesthesia.

“… Are you back to reality now?”

I looked around and saw that the sun was setting. In terms of experience, it seemed that at least half a day had passed.

But when I saw it from my point of view, it didn’t touch the reality at all. My mental world… So, it is because I have been working hard on training for over a week based on the standard of this space, which is far from reality.

‘It’s like this even for a single day, but if you stay there for ten days or so, it’s going to be very chaotic.’

Others may like that they can train diligently in the room of spirit and time under the guidance of a martial artist who is about the size of a thunderbolt, but at least not me. When I think of the past week spent under that human, my teeth grind spontaneously.

Bad Deuk.

‘He’s like a dog-like ghost that doesn’t understand the human mind.’

I don’t know much about the ability to teach swords, and one thing was clear that he was a human who treated people like dogs, to the extent that a Marine Corps assistant would say go away.

– Uh-huh, disciple. I can see the hands and feet wielding the sword. If you are being taught by this Sabu-nim, who can be said to be the best in the world, shouldn’t you at least swing your sword enough to fly into the sky?

– What? Rest? Our brother-in-law Do you find it easy to say that you want to take a break from your mouth even though you already have a doggie-like talent? If you were like me, you would have practiced while saving time to breathe, let alone rest.

– Aying, tsk tsu tsu tsu. Look at them complaining of pain because they swung their sword non-stop for three days and three nights. Baby, that’s when I was. Since ancient times, when Sabu-nim said he would teach me, it was my daily life to prostrate myself like an asshole while shedding tears and saying, “Sung-eun is embarrassed.”

… Looking back on what happened in the past week, I feel resentment again.

And what pisses me off even more is that the time I spent with the brainchild over the past week was that it was only in its infancy. To borrow the expression of the brainchild, should I say that it is just a stage of ‘Mmma, give me your mama’?

Just as I sighed and tried to get up, there was a voice coming from next to me.

“Are you awake now?”

“Aagh!”

Just as I let out a girlish scream like Guan Yu, wondering if the Thunder Emperor had followed me all the way to the real world, I finally saw Sei standing next to me with a sullen expression.

“… What was it you Please, let’s pretend to be popular and live. I’m going to have a heart attack like this, really.”

“I am sorry if I surprised you. But since the master is in training, I dare not interfere.”

Saying that, Sei raised her right hand, and before long her hand faded into a translucent color. Apparently, when I was in the middle of my training, I activated the dark sight and stayed by my side in stealth.

“Ha, yes. Thank you for keeping me by my side. But how did you know that I was training?”

To someone I don’t know, in the real world, I would have seen nothing but a picture of myself snuggling with a worn-out sword in my arms.

“Looking at it through the eyes of the three realms, I contemplated that the master’s spirit momentarily escaped the world of images and opened the wisdom of heaven. Judging from the fact that he reached the climax even momentarily, it must be clear that a warrior who had reached a high level during his lifetime was by his master’s side. Isn’t it?”

“…..”

To be honest, I couldn’t understand what he was talking about, but I decided to keep my mouth shut because I feared that my social prestige and Gao would be hurt if I asked him to explain it again.

“… Yes, you are right Even though you didn’t say anything, you understood it well. Excellent.”

“This is overrated. I am only sorry that I have disturbed the master’s heart with my insignificant talents.”

Looking at Sei bowing her head toward me, for some reason I felt like something made up of a triangle was stabbing my heart in a corner of my chest, so I quickly decided to change the subject.

“By the way, how is teaching Cirilla going? Are there any inconveniences?”

Actually, it was just a question I asked out of politeness, and it was a question I asked without expecting anything. No matter how genius you are, what kind of results can you come out of now, it’s only the first day of class.

“Um… Are you talking about Cyril?”

But Sei’s reaction was a bit strange. A line of emotion begins to dwell on Sei’s face, which had been expressionless until now. And the identity of that emotion was none other than absurdity.

“To be honest, it’s just ridiculous. I never could have imagined in my lifetime that there would be a human being with such a talent.”

“Why? Could it be that Cirilla’s talent was worse than I thought?”

No matter how hard it is, since he has the super-rare trait of “Heavenly Demon,” His learning ability shouldn’t have fallen that far behind.

“That’s not what I meant. When I saw Cirilla, that child was… It is truly a monster.”

“A monster?”

“In less than a minute since I artificially stimulated my mana, the mana circuit was awakened, and in less than an hour after I felt the mana, a circle was created on its own. No, to be precise, the mana overflowing in the body found the optimal form and was automatically reduced to the form of a circle.”

“To be honest, that child was an existence that did not need a circle. In the end, by combining the magical power circuit inside the body, the magical energy in the air, and the intention, even limited class 2 magic was realized. After only half a day of learning magic.”

“No human being, no being I have ever encountered in my life has possessed the same level of sorcery talent. Cirilla, that child… is the most incomprehensible being I have ever encountered. .”

Say muttered in a voice that seemed to be mixed with a little bit of fear. And I also had a rough understanding of magic theory while playing “Erantia Saga”, So I was able to vaguely understand what Sei was talking about.

Due to the setting, the magic in 「Erantia Saga」 Is not something convenient, like players do, where a fireball flies by itself when you press a single button on the keyboard.

In order to use magic, you must go through a very complicated process called casting, which is the casting of magic that assumes the process of rearranging the magical power that exists in the material world, listing the formulas for that rearrangement, and distorting reality. Do.

Also, magic is the study of equivalent exchange. It is generally impossible to realize magic beyond one’s ability unless one’s own destruction is pledged to seek a miracle.

No matter how talented a person is in magic, a circle is created in the heart over at least a month or a year. .

And to put it the other way around, it seems to be understandable that it is impossible to use magic beyond the circle you possess, even if Dr. Strange’s grandfather comes.

So, as an analogy, just as it would be unrealistic for a white belt who just entered a taekwondo academy to temporarily extinguish the universe by using a jinhoechuk or jeabongchim, the study of magic is also a miracle beyond one’s limits. To do so was nothing short of absolutely impossible.

It was an unwritten rule that applied to all who were learning magic without exception, and it was like a kind of law.

It is one of the most natural common sense, such as that humans die if they do not breathe, or if their throats are cut off.

But somehow, it seemed that the ‘common sense’ that Sei knew, no, everyone in this world took for granted, didn’t apply as much to Cirilla.

“… To be honest, I sometimes wonder if it’s the right thing to do to get that child to learn magic.”

“Why?”

“Sooner or later he will absorb all the knowledge I teach him. And as a wizard, you can easily surpass that level. For that child, the presence or absence of a circle or the amount of magic power are meaningless.”

“And Cirilla… He will soon become the greatest sorcerer in history. And at the same time, if she decides otherwise, mankind will face an unprecedented disaster that cannot be prevented.”

“…..”

I know what Say is concerned about. In fact, she knew too well that her worries were not for nothing.

Because in any future I know of, Cirilla actually makes an appearance as an enemy of humanity.

‘Celestine Lord Sistina.’

She possesses one of the most transcendent military powers among the many characters in “Elancia Saga”, But at the same time, she is well aware of someone who appears as the player’s enemy, fanning her hatred for humanity.

Now Cirilla, trembling and afraid of even catching a single insect, grows into a wizard who doesn’t blink an eye while taking the lives of as many as 20,000 people in an instant, even though she is her own enemy. .

So now is the time to stop. As long as she has already awakened as a wizard, it is literally only a matter of time before Cirilla rises to the level of an archmage.

If Cirilla rises to her level, she will reach her hands to the far end of the sky, she will not be able to stop her steps with nothing.

That’s why Sei’s concerns are extremely reasonable and legitimate. Actually, for me, and for us, there was no means to stop Cirilla who had changed like that.

In the end, there was only one option I could take at this moment.

Took.

“… Ah?”

I put my hand on Sei’s head and gently stroked her hair. Perhaps because she was an Elyos, the softness of her hair also boasted a devilish texture comparable to something of the royal class.

“Don’t worry too much. When the time comes, I will stop Cirilla at all costs. So, do you want to do what you can at this moment? Just as I believe in Cirilla, I believe in you too.”

“… Yes. I understand, master.”

Sei blushes as if someone was embarrassed to put a hand on her head. And seeing her like that, I realized that my operation had been successful.

‘Indeed, as expected.’

She judged that she would have no experience of skinship with men like an angel who grew up finely in heaven, and took advantage of that gap to succeed in passing Cirilla’s problem.

And since Cirilla’s problem has been passed over in this way today, Sei, who has a naive personality, will not bring up the subject related to Cirilla unless some major problem arises in the future.

‘Surely… demonic manifestation… !’

After giving myself a satisfactory grade of A+, I immediately recalled a memory of an option that was inserted into the appendix of Cirilla’s Trash.

“Ah, by the way, how was Yurika’s education? Is their education going well?”

Sei’s face hardened again at the thoughtless question. What? Could it be that Yurika, like Cirilla, was hiding something of her demonic talent?

“That… I couldn’t teach Yurika anything special today.”

“Why? Could it be that he is too absorbed in teaching Cirilla?”

“No… It’s not that kind of problem… That is… “

Sei bowed her head as if she was really sorry, with her ear lobe dyed bright red for some reason.

“Even the appearance of holding spoons was so vulgar that the day passed quickly just by teaching them how to use utensils. Sorry.”

“…..”

“Perhaps, in order to begin her education as a princess, the most urgent thing is to get her to shed her familiar lifestyle as an orphan.”

“…Um.”

Well, actually, she didn’t expect anything from him, so she wasn’t even impressed. I didn’t feel much of the bitterness that I had failed in the friend point orphan gacha.

As one philosopher once said, if she didn’t expect anything from the beginning, wouldn’t she have no fear of being betrayed?
