217. ReturnKilled the Academy player.
Geomje Garand (2)
Sword Emperor Garand Aden is a character whose appearances are limited in the original work, and is in fact close to an extra.
The three strongest characters, excluding the enemies.
Danan Erin Danua of Justice.
Josephine Clara, the witch of space.
And the Sword Emperor Garand Aden.
In the case of Josephine, she consistently helps the player as an assistant from the middle to the end.
In the first place, the last half of the fight is impossible to clear without her help, so you must get her help.
Erin Danua is, by definition, the strongest next to Tates. She is the equivalent of Ohad Breath, who does not use the sun.
Its impact on the main story was significant, and it was considered an essential NPC, especially for players in the Lancer tree.
Above all, in the story, the decisive reason why the player was able to survive from Tates Balthazar was Erin Danua’s sacrifice.
Compared to the two characters above, Garand Arden’s position was more subtle.
According to the setting, he is the strongest person representing the era following Tates Balthazar.
The sun is now setting, and yet no supreme figure of the era has emerged who can replace him.
Until this generational change occurred due to the appearance of players, he was a character who did not appear much…
“Meet the Geomje.”
“It’s been a while, boy.”
I met this old man several times in previous episodes. I remember hearing bitter comments every time.
“You’re wasting your talent. “It’s a shame, it’s a shame.”
That would have been high praise in its own way. Strangely… everyone is overestimating me.
“Thanks to you, I got to enjoy looking at the clouds to my heart’s content.”
“Keuhum…!”
It was when I went to Sky Island to get Klau Solas. He remembers that when he defeated the Sword Demon and defeated Dunskais, the Sword Emperor blocked the crowd of giants.
And I cut down the tree that connected Sky Island.
“How did you get down?”
“While I was going up, I took a look at the scenery and then came down.”
“······What?”
“The giants. They dropped them and came down as stairs.”
“······.”
Is that okay?
“That’s a really interesting thing. But what happened?”
“How do you plan to end this?”
“Is there anything you want?”
I decided to shamelessly go out. I didn’t do it. I don’t know.
“Okay… it’s not a big deal, just pick one of our granddaughters and marry her. If we both agree, we can take them both.”
“Ha, installment plan?!”
No, this old man told me to take Runia with him before, and he’s doing it again this time.
“Hal, why does grandpa say that?!”
Arisha patted Geomje’s back in embarrassment, and Hwaran frowned.
“Cluck. I heard that Runia’s is good?”
“Oh, are you my sister? That can’t be possible…!”
“I heard that the senile old man should be left out.”
Geomje laughed in a way that was inappropriate for his age and patted my shoulder cheerfully.
“If you’re the boss of the company, you should be able to satisfy at least a few women. Isn’t that right, boy?”
“I think I know where Mr. Runia’s way of thinking came from.”
It seems like everyone in this family has lost their minds. At least the sane person is Runia’s biological mother, Sophia.
“Hmph. Anyway, I guess I’m a spearfisher… I miss you.”
right. I had something to ask the Geomje about his teacher, and before I knew it, he was on his way somewhere, receiving warm greetings from the association’s employees.
“Chairman Corrin Locke. I will guide you.”
Soon the association staff guided us around. Central Guardian Association near Wangd. A man with a generous appearance is waiting there.
“Oh, Lord Corrin! Nice to meet you!”
Surprisingly, the man who suddenly shook my hand was the president of the Guardian Association.
“Chairman Reddick.”
“You know me.”
“Aren’t you the proud senior of Merkava Academy?”
“Uh-huh… How is Lady Josephine?”
“It’s still a while for him.”
Reddick Giorgio. A former second-level wizard and top executive of the Merkava Association. He is, by all accounts, 30 years the Academy’s senior.
It may be surprising, but the president of the academy is not a strong person.
Of course, a level 2 wizard is a high-ranking guardian who can put some weight on his shoulders, but his status is still not that high compared to a level 1 knight.
“Anyway, the great senior welcomed me in person. This is an honor.”
“Hehe, I am rather honored. The next special knight to replace the Sword Emperor has been born in our Merkava!”
“That’s too much praise.”
“Anyway, how is Lady Marie?”
Reddick subtly asked about Marie’s well-being.
Yes, the position of president of an association is not one that can be ascended just because one is strong. If it were not for absolute force like Geomje, this position would be taken for political reasons.
“Senior Marie is currently in the south. I heard you made a dinner date with the branch manager there?”

“I see, that’s right. Hmm… That guy is from Western Elizabeth Academy…”
I thought I was planning to attack them with school ties, but it was a no-brainer.
“That’s right, when I said I was coming here, the ‘saint’ asked me to say hello?”
“You mean the saint?”
I handed Estelle’s handwritten letter to Association President Reddick. He looks slightly impressed.
This is a handwritten greeting from the princess of this country and a saint of the New Church. Even the president of the association is a civil servant appointed by the royal family. The position is close to an honorary position.
The real value of the position of president of the association was that it provided connections with high-ranking public officials from all over the world.
This is probably why Garand Aden, who is sick of politics, is not interested in receiving only a plaque as honorary president of the association.
“President of the Association.”
But I am different. I learned from Park Si-hoo in the previous episode that saving the world requires political skills.
“I have an invitation to a secret social club called Voices of the South. When will you come with me?”
“Me, the voice of the South?”
It is a place where the king’s central political figures, run by the southern ruler Dunareff, are scattered.
With the support of Dunarev, he can represent his interests and even aim for the position of minister, with a solid path to success.
“You can drink a glass of southern wine there and then… you know?”
“Huh, heh… weren’t you a minor?”
“Uh huh~ The company’s ledgers are being honest about the distribution, but is it really possible to use it only if it doesn’t contain alcohol? And I will be an adult starting next month~”
“Uh-huh… This guy is a hot guy! That’s right, you should learn how to drink from an adult! That’s good!”
“Today’s evaluation. Please take care of it?”
“Don’t worry! All you have to do is show the sun that stopped that army and get some autographs from the staff!”
President Reddick smiled and left the room. I was probably anxious.
I wasn’t interested in the Garand Aden Association position, but I don’t know what kind of guy I am.
According to the association’s almost unofficial rules, special guardians are eligible to run for president of the association.
How could he not, since he was in danger of being robbed of the position he had worked so hard to build up just because he was a little more powerful?
However, since I have established a connection with Dunarev and the New Church, I will happily offer up the position of president of the association if you give me a good position.
Hwaran and Alisha, who were watching this, look at me with puzzled expressions.
“why?”
“I feel like there has just been a very dirty adult transaction.”
“······denial?”
“It’s just taking up space anyway, so why bother splitting the stones to get in? It’s all going well.”
In the previous episode, I was tired from the political fight while investigating corruption and all, but this time I can send you off in a good way, so why not?
Marie and Estelle are on my side, so what can I not do?
“With this, we’re sure to win the special express. We just need to fill out the appropriate documents and proceed as planned.”
But my plan was blocked by an unexpected person.
* * * *
The people who make my evaluations are all executives of the association.
Just like in the level 1 promotion review, I measure my basic specifications and what I can do and how far I can do it.
“Lord Corrin, doesn’t everyone who knows?”
“Yes. Just thinking about the power that embodied the sun.”
“The Second Princess’ subordinates were also overwhelmed in one-on-one combat.”
“My monster hunting performance is at the top level. There’s no need to prove it.”
The judges, influenced by the president of the association, were busy anointing me with all kinds of rhetoric.
In the previous episode, they were criticized for being too young, lacking in performance, or having low qualifications, but it feels strange to see them all busy praising them.
This is why they say power, power.
“Still, we still need to make at least some basic measurements, so why not just demonstrate the sun in a separate space?”
“Of course.”
“If that is what the Association President means.”
“Junior Corin, you probably know this well. Is there still a training scarecrow in the training room? There is a very sturdy scarecrow with maximum heat resistance. Let’s measure it with that.”
It’s nice that you don’t get a bunch of quests asking you to do this or that like in the previous episode. I was willing to accept the test, but—
“That’s boring.”
The driver who was watching this skit clicked his tongue and barged in.
“Da, you?”
“Sword Emperor Garand?”
“Why are you here…?”
He suddenly broke in and stood in front of Reddick, snorting.
“Hey, Association President.”
“Yes? Please speak, great sword…”
Even the president of the association does not seem to have thought of pointing out disrespect in front of the living legend of the era, the supreme being of Ikkitousen.
“As the honorary association president, let me make a suggestion.”
“What is that…”
“I will be in charge of Corinne Locke’s ‘Unlimited Evaluation’ from now on. Are you dissatisfied?”
“Uh, uh…”
“So there are no complaints. Then I will proceed from now on. You guys go away.”
Sword Emperor Garand Aden instantly silenced the judges. The moment the association president, Reddick, notices him and retreats, the secret pact with him is all but gone.
“Please take it easy and let me go.”
“I just don’t like the idea of skits happening right in front of my eyes.”
Garand took back the ferocious spirit he had shown towards the association employees and grinned at me.
“I came here because I was looking forward to seeing what you, the guy who can see into black space, would show me. Should I use it to make Nogu’s heavy steps in vain?”
“Do you mean territory? I can show you as much of that as I want?”
“Against the Scarecrow?”
Geomje placed a hand the size of a pot lid on the scarecrow that had been prepared for me. What he did was nothing special.
Tuk! And a light touch. The contact wasn’t even at the level of a slap, but…
-Quad! Quad deuk…!
The scarecrow was torn to pieces.
“······.”
Although it is called a scarecrow for convenience, it is an object made of magic stones. Of course, the intensity is also enormous. Breaking it with such a light touch?
Super strength? No, it’s not like that. There are no traces of force acting.
“Do you think you can prove your skills by breaking a few soft toys like this? That’s a ridiculous clowning.”
Geomje continued speaking vaguely while crushing the shattered remains.
“Beat the scarecrow? How persistently, how much, how much damage do you inflict… cutting, stabbing, kicking, crushing, chopping, throwing? Against a piece of stone that is standing still?”
pull out the sword Geomje drew his sword.
Two swords at the waist and three swords on the back. One of the Sword Emperor’s five swords, each of which is said to be the world’s most famous sword.
Couple sword, twin dragon sword. Originally, it was a treasure that should have been in the hands of the Sword Demon.
“I’ll show you. You can’t prove any strength with a show like this. Corin Locke, prove your strength.”
“······.”
There is tension within the association.
The greatest power of an era who has not yet stepped down from power.
And I am the next generation express. What would be the result if two people got together?
Anyone would be curious. Anyone would be excited.
“······Me? Why? I don’t like it?”
Except me.
