I Became the Only Buffer in the Academy

228 – The King’s Sword – 3

They seem like such insensitive people.

What is that sour expression on my face when I see these crazy luminous wings?!

“Hmm… Anyway, I think the cleanup is roughly finished, so let’s go back and rest today.”

Just defeating the attack was quite tiring. Old Man Breath, who told the British Hero Association to take the villains with him, looked around and spoke leisurely.

“Let’s rest at our mansion today.”

There were no opponents. So we returned to the Taylor household and went into our respective rooms.

“John. Can we talk for a moment later?”

It was Yuchoa. Her always bright expression had a bit of darkness. So I nodded.

When I returned to the room, I tried holding Merlin’s wand again.

[Merlin’s Staff]

[The staff used by Archmage Merlin. Just possessing it can reveal the dignity of an archmage.]

[Luminous wings can be used when possessed]

I can only marvel at this incredible option of being able to use wings just by holding them. If you use this well, you can use it very coolly when using large-scale buffs or powerful magic.

Shall we practice for later?

I looked at the mirror in my room and tried various postures. The wings are definitely cool, so no matter what you do, you look good.

– smart.

While practicing skills and poses, I went outside when I heard a knock on the door. It was Yuchoa.

“…Why are you showing those wings again?”

“Isn’t it cool?”

“It seems too flashy, so I don’t like it.”

If that’s the case, there’s nothing we can do. When Yu Choa released the wings, she sighed softly.

“Do you want to take a walk? The garden here is very beautiful.”

As she said, the garden of the mansion was quite beautiful.

Elizabeth said that when the weather is nice, they often have tea time here.

“Okay. Let’s go.”

There was no particular reason to refuse. And I thought I knew why she came to see me. That’s why I headed to the garden of the mansion with Yu Cho-ah.

There were many trees and flowers growing in the garden. As she was calmly walking through the garden, which seemed to be well maintained by the gardeners, she hesitated several times before finally opening her mouth.

“…Eckelpent’s story. Do you remember?”

“Naji. Is it because of the word ‘vessel’?”

“…Yeah. That guy just looked at me and said I was a bowl. So I thought about it.”

No need to think about it.

I stroked Yoo Cho-ah’s head. Soft orange hair was flowing between my fingers. As she felt it, she collapsed onto the floor.

Perhaps because it is the bottom of a well-maintained garden, the grass is quite soft. As I sat down next to her, she slowly leaned on my shoulder.

“Rashiel said that. I am nothing, I am someone who can become anything.”

“It did.”

“And you said the apocalypse is the final beast?”

“It did.”

“They say that when the apocalypse appears, the throne will be empty. And… the dragon of the apocalypse is a being who is with the great whore Babylon.”

“okay.”

Yu Choa closed her eyes. Then, he slowly rubbed his face with his hand and spoke as if spitting out something heavy in his heart.

“Is the reason why the Blade of Dawn wants to catch me… is because I am a vessel for Babylon the Great Prostitute?”

answer.

Although she was always wandering around, Yoo Cho-ah was still excellent. I nodded at her words, and Yoo Cho-ah held my arm tightly.

“…That’s what it was. That’s why. The aptitude I had for Zero ultimately ended up being something like this.”

My voice started to sound wet. So I pulled her and hugged her.

“Zero’s aptitude is not necessarily like that. He can literally become anything. Don’t think of him as a prostitute.”

“But… if the apocalypse is completed with my presence…”

“I told you before, stop thinking nonsense. You won’t end up like that.”

He was just touching my butt and trying to see my naked body. That’s true, but that alone doesn’t mean she’s a prostitute.

I stroked Yu Choa’s arm and kissed her forehead.

“Do you believe me? It will never happen. And you won’t find out.”

Even villains won’t be able to make noise.

If Yoo Cho-ah is the vessel of the great prostitute to complete the apocalypse. If you make a fuss, the association will either imprison Yoo Cho-ah or kill him.

Even from the perspective of the Blade of Dawn, who worships the apocalypse, there is nothing more troublesome than that.

Of course, there would be no one among us who would make a fuss about it.

“…Is that so?”

“Yes. We can stop the apocalypse by catching the dragon of the apocalypse.”

I gave a strong hug to the trembling Yoo Cho-ah. She, who was always bright and energetic, looked more delicate than anyone else in my arms.

“…John… Ugh…”

shake. My shoulders are shaking and my body is shaking. When she found out who she was, she was confused. So, I looked at her and spoke cautiously.

“Huh. Is it very difficult?”

“Huh…”

“Do you want to touch my breasts?”

“…huh.”

The sniffling stopped.

I never thought this would work on women too. Yu Choa raised her hand and touched my breasts before lowering her hand. Then he strokes his buttocks with his other hand.

“Haa… haaa… haaa…”

…Did he pretend to cry on purpose? He hugs me tightly, inhales my scent, and starts stroking and rubbing all over my body.

“Whoa. I feel a bit more energetic.”

“I see. I’m glad.”

okay. This body is yours anyway, so use it as you wish.

I looked at Yoo Cho-ah, who had a lively expression on her face again.

Not yet.

It was just an effort to pretend to be bright.

But it’s still okay. If you have the luxury of pretending to be bright, you can cultivate it.

“I will be by your side, so don’t be afraid.”

“…Yes, hehe. My lover. He’s also dependable.”

“Heh. Don’t go anywhere and talk.”

“Ahaha~! Don’t tell me. Don’t tell me!”

After patting my back and hitting me, she hugged me tightly and whispered in a kind tone.

“I’m still holding back on something I want to monopolize…”

ah. You said so. sorry.

“Are we here?”

“yes.”

The place we arrived at after setting out early in the morning was Stonehenge. Where I got the fragment of the sword sheath before. Perhaps because it was early in the morning, there was no one around.

“Go to sleep. Take a seat. It’s time to come out.”

“hmm?”

People begin to stand where I designate. Once everyone stood in the prepared area, I carved ancient runes on the floor with Merlin’s staff and then inserted Merlin’s staff into the center of Stonehenge.

And when the sun started to rise.

-Ugh…!!!

With a low vibrating sound, Merlin’s staff began to emit light. And what was created.

“ruins…?”

okay. It was the entrance to a ruin that we couldn’t have known about. While everyone was amazed at the entrance to the ruins shining in all kinds of colors, I pulled out Merlin’s wand and took it back.

“Those who qualify as knights, and the staff of the Archmage Merlin. It is said that when they come together, the road to Avalon will open.”

“Where did you say that…?”

“There is a book called The Chronicles of King Arthur. It may also be in the British Academy Library.”

“You’re lucky enough to find something like that? Hehe. That’s amazing.”

thank you mother.

The future looks very bright as the popularity of the Breath family is rising.

“So this is Avalon?”

“Oh, that’s not it. It’s just a road to Avalon. We can’t enter Avalon.”

All you have to do is go to the entrance, pass the test given by the Lady of the Lake, the owner of Avalon, and receive Excalibur.

“Then everyone, relax… let’s go in.”

“I’ll go first.”

Old Man Breath went inside confidently. As soon as I entered, the surroundings changed.

“This is…”

There was a large lake in the center. There are a total of four passages connected to the lake.

You have to go in there, kill each mid-boss, and then come to the lake in the center.

– Ugh…!!

The lake begins to tremble with a low vibration sound. Everyone tensed and grabbed their weapons as waves began to hit the lake, which had been extremely calm just moments before, and strong shaking began to occur.

And then.

“Hey, look over there!!”

Unlike on the lake where there was nothing, other things began to appear within the lake.

It was a beautiful town. In a picturesque landscape, fairies with wings fly and clouds carry people and move around the sky.

Behind the beautiful village there was a great castle, the flag of which was a picture of a dragon with blue decorations.

“There is a saying that King Arthur is of dragon blood. So then…”

“That’s right. The world beneath this lake is the utopian Avalon.”

Everyone was surprised by the sudden voice. What appeared in the lake where no one had just moments ago was a beautiful woman with long hair covering her body.

“You who came here… I don’t think they are the people our king wanted.”

“But they are qualified to be knights.”

Since everyone was on guard, I spoke first. Then, after putting down Merlin’s staff, he knelt down on one knee and bowed his head.

“My name is Kim Yo-han from Korea. Could you please give me the honor of saying hello to the Lady?”

“Hoho. People who know manners don’t hate it.”

I looked back, and everyone was standing there hesitantly, then becoming as polite as me. Only then did the Lady of the Lake feel satisfied, lightly stepping on the lake water and walking around, looking around at us.

“There are certainly people who are qualified to be knights. But you are not qualified to have an audience with the king. You are not the knights the king wants.”

“But now the apocalypse is approaching, and evil men are joining hands with the devil and putting the world in danger.”

“…I see. It’s the end.”

She, who had a negative attitude just a moment ago, nodded slightly. And then he lightly snapped his fingers.

“Then I will give you a chance. Pass the four tests.

-Grumbling…!!

At that moment, a sword rose out of the water. It was a sword that looked so amazing that even I, who didn’t know much about swords, was impressed.

The Lady of the Lake held it lightly in her hand and threw the sword to Elizabeth.

“T-this to me…?”

“The Sword of the Lake is a sword of one’s own choosing. I don’t know if she will like you. So, give it a try together.”

Elizabeth, holding the sword, trembled slightly from tension and excitement at her calm words.

“Yo, Johan. This can’t be…”

“Yeah. That’s it.”

I pointed to the famous sword wrapped in soft golden light.

“The king’s sword. It’s Excalibur.”
