Swordmaster of the Red Light District

Luna successfully signed a contract with the high spirits.

In the end, Luna has one middle-level spirit, two high-middle-level spirits, one high-level spirit, and one high-level spirit.

It was a power that was not lacking in comparison to any Graduate or high-ranking wizard.

Rey patted her chin with a slightly sullen face.

“Uh, um…”

When they lined up the contracted spirits, their power was greater than expected.

Even though Luna had signed a contract with the high spirits, she seemed to have quite a bit of room in her celomere.

Rey patted Luna’s head and met her eyes.

“Luna, if you’re smart, you’d know it well.”

“…”

“The power of the spirits that belong to you is strong and fatal. Don’t overdo it.”

“…Okay. I’ll be careful.”

“Yeah, nice.”

Rey, who grinned, looked back at the spirits.

There were five spirits, but they were all wind spirits.

‘If I get a chance, I’ll try to sign one contract with Luna for each type.’

Although the spirits usually did not want to make a contract with a wizard who deals with other types of spirits.

Rey was not really interested in the likes and dislikes of the spirits.

[Cruckle…!]

High Spirit Kalgar seemed to have regained his senses and began to stare at Rey.

Ray laughed.

“Hey, Spirit Unit 5. Don’t you put snow on it?”

[My name is ‘Kalga’, not Unit 5. Damn Harsia’s…]

“Luna, don’t stop talking to that person.”

“…I know.”

[Cruckle!]

At Luna’s command, Kalgar, who was unable to communicate, showed his teeth toward Rey.

Whether a spirit could speak human language was purely individual difference.

Among the middle-level spirits, there are individuals who can speak human language, and even among the highest-ranking spirits, there are individuals who cannot communicate with humans.

In the case of Kalgar, he could speak human language quite fluently, but Rey had no intention of letting Kalgar make fun of him.

‘If you leave that man’s mouth alone, troublesome things will only increase.’

Kalga, who clenched her mouth a few more times, couldn’t contain her anger and let out a violent force.

Rey giggled and tried to pull out her sword, but Luna moved the spirits ahead of that.

Kwaggagak!!

The spirits of the lower ranks who made a contract with Luna began to scratch Kalgar.

Both the higher and lower spirits who had to attack the higher spirits, and the lower ones who had to be beaten by the lower ones, were both about to die.

In the end, Kalgar, who was depressed, threw his head back on the ground.

It was a sign of surrender.

Rey tapped Calgar’s cheek.

“Let’s do well in the future?”

[…]

Kalgar didn’t fight anymore and avoided eye contact with Rey.

Lopilen couldn’t help but be a flagship when she saw the scene.

No matter how gifted the spirits are, it is almost impossible to make a favorable contract with powerful spirits in a short period of time.

However, with Rey’s help, Luna gained the power to be called a high spirits within a day.

Moreover, it is said that there is still enough room for celomere.

‘If you learn magic in earnest…’

Soon, a wizard with power comparable to or even greater than that of the Locust will be born.

Of course, if intelligence does not follow, no matter how high-performance a circle is, you cannot learn magic properly.

However, Ray clearly stated that Luna had a very unique intelligence.

‘Maybe really…’

I didn’t know if I would be able to watch the birth of an Archmage that surpassed Lisilote.

Lopilen suppressed the overwhelming emotions and gave strength to her grasp.

Rey brought Luna to Lopilen, who was gasping for breath.

“Mr. Lophilen.”

“?”

“Let’s go back. On the way back, please explain to Luna the things to be careful about when dealing with spirits.”

“Uh, yes. I see.”

“Oh, before that…”

Ray took off her shirt.

The cloth that had adhered to the skin fell off, and the ooze dripped from the burned area.

Rey took the lid of the potion she had received from Seria and presented it to Lopilen.

“Would you mind spraying this on the wound?”

Lopilen nodded her head without saying a word.

Luna took a step away and quietly looked into Rey’s burnt skin.

How many times has it already been?

There was a time when I was just staring at Rey’s back, which had suffered a terrible wound.

In Luna’s memory, Rei was always smiling brightly, as if she was always reassured, even though she was bleeding from her body.

I didn’t want to see that smile anymore, Luna.

Yohana had been expressing dissatisfaction with a hardened face for several days.

Whenever she felt the weight of the silver sword swaying from her waist, Yohana couldn’t calm herself down due to the irritability and humiliation she felt inside.

I felt like I didn’t want to see the silver sword that Rey gave me, even if I didn’t care.

However, whenever Johana threw the silver sword anywhere, Luna came whining and holding the sword.

Yohana was carrying a silver sword indefinitely because of Luna’s coercion, not her compulsion.

Johanna really, really, really hated the silver sword.

Read at n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

None of the women were envious of the silver sword that Johana had been given as a gift.

It was only the boys who saw the silver sword and lit their eyes.

And the men with their bright eyes also included knights.

“Oh…! Oh…! Ohhh…!!”

Picor, who had stopped by the nursery to help the children practice swordsmanship, opened his mouth wide, but exclaimed.

“Is this the real thing…?!”

Picor gasped and asked Jenkinson, who was accompanying him.

Jenkinson nodded, understanding Picor’s reaction a hundred times.

“It was purchased directly by Rey from Zeppelin at the Imperial Horse Tower.”

“Oh ok…!! oh ok…!!”

Picor wasn’t the only one who reacted so violently.

The knights, who were usually serious and strict, heard Picor’s story and rushed to the nursery.

The knights who saw the sword of Johanna drooled and could not hide their greed.

Even the reticent Didier knelt down and exclaimed.

“To be able to see Zeppelin’s X-series with my own eyes…!!”

Didier’s eyes, which he had borrowed from Johana and held in his hand, loosened.

“Oh my God…!! It’s a real X series…!!”

Didier, who valued chivalry and kept away from luxury, was nowhere to be found.

Yohana was starting to panic more and more at the constant ignorance of the knights.

Rey gave me a good sword. I knew that.

However, Yohana thought that the value of the sword that Rey had given her was a little expensive for children at best.

However, even the knights, who were always wearing splendid armor, were shocked to see the sword that Rey gave them and collapsed pick and choose.

‘Are you acting…? Are you with Ray?’

Johanna thought so at first.

However, Johanna was soon forced to admit that her guess was wrong.

Even Mohammed, who was always by the Count’s side, heard the news and ran to the orphanage.

“Zeppelin’s X series is here…?!”

“Father!! Come here!!”

Mohamed approached Didier in a hurry and couldn’t keep his mouth shut when he saw the silver blade that stretched out smoothly.

Carefully holding the silver sword in his hand, Mohammed asked Johana in a sublime manner.

“Yo, Yohana, can I put the sword on your sword just once…?”

“…it’s okay.”

When Johanna’s permission was granted, Mohammed raised his sword high into the sky.

Mana flowing through the sword is compressed in an instant to create a sword river.

Mohammed shuddered.

Today, I realized for the first time that Gumgang could develop so smoothly and quickly.

Watching the brilliantly shining sword, the knights applauded as if possessed.

“Oh oh…!!”

“ooh ooh…!!”

“Really, luxury is worthy of its name…!!”

To the knights who could not get out of their own world, Yohana asked with difficulty.

“Is that… a very expensive sword…?”

“Oh my God!! Is this a very expensive sword? You spit it out now and spit it out…?!”

Jenkinson lightly clenched the back of Picor’s head as he screamed.

Picor barely came to his senses and cleared his throat.

“Large, it is a sword made by a famous craftsman and wizard named Zeppelin. In particular, the X grade is worth calling because there are very few quantities.”

Yohana made a troubled face.

Zeppelin or X-rank, even if the knights talked about it, Johanna couldn’t understand how great it was.

“So… how expensive is a sword?”

1,000 gold? Or 5,000 gold?

Yohana recalled an amazing number in her mind and clenched and opened her hands as if anxiously, repeatedly.

After the knights looked at each other, they narrowed the distance with Johana.

If the price of the sword leaked out, there was nothing good about it.

“Johana…”

Mohammed thrust his sword into Johana’s waist and put his finger to his mouth.

“You have to keep it a secret from others. What Rey gave you is a very valuable treasure sword. If you want to purchase this sword, at least…”

Mohammed looked at the knights for a moment.

“Did you need about 20,000 to 300,000 gold?”

“I’ve heard that 40,000 to 500,000 gold is ridiculous when it comes to auctions.”

“It was said that there was a time when the bid was won for 1 million gold because of a fight for pride between nobles.”

“…?”

Johanna went into a panic.

20 million? 100 million? So how many zeros are there?

For 1 gold, you can purchase 10 pieces of bread that can fill one meal.

It is said that if you sell the sword on your side, you can buy 10,000,000 loaves of bread.

“…?”

Johanna’s eyes began to flutter.

Jenkinson patted Johanna’s shoulder, who was unconscious.

“It’s too precious to be entrusted to a child…”

One after another, Jenkinson pulled out a silver sword from Johana’s waist.

“It’s also a shabby thing compared to your brilliant talent.”

Sreung!

A shining silver sword is drawn out.

Jenkinson laid the silver sword on the plain scabbard that Rey had prepared and tied it around Johana’s waist again.

“Johanna.”

“Yes Yes?”

Seeing Yohana, who was still unconscious, Jenkinson smiled warmly.

“He did some stupid things, Ray. He did a very nasty thing.”

No matter how good a sword was presented to a young girl, would it be more meaningful than cheap jewelry?

“But…”

Jenkinson watched Ray for a long time.

I watched his dedication, his hard work, his pain.

For a long time, I watched Rey’s back, who was born with an incomprehensible talent and did not hesitate to burn his life for others.

“I swear… even if you live your whole life…”

Humans are by nature creatures that quickly get used to favors.

However, Jenkinson wanted the children to know this.

“You will never meet someone who cared for and loved you as much as that guy.”

You who even abandoned your parents.

You who were exposed to the malice of the world.

Ray slashed my flesh and harvested it.

“So, I hope you and Rei will make up with you sooner.”

At Jenkinson’s sincere voice, Yohana did not respond and bowed her head .
