It didnt take long for the sparring to end. Ronan, after confirming that there were no more members attacking him, smiled in satisfaction.

You all did well. Now, you could jump into almost any battlefield and come out alive.

It was sincere praise. Over the unprecedented two years, the skills of the club members had improved to an astonishing degree. It was a golden result born from talent, effort, and excellent guidance. Of course, Ronan had never been declared dead, but that was to be expected, so he didnt dwell on it.

You all have really improved a lot.

Ronan added another remark. Click. The sound of sword and scabbard meeting was pleasant to hear. The fusion of Lynn and Lamancha had created a short pommel, making the sword even more stable to wield.

Its unbelievable Ugh, I thought we could win this time

Agh from Brahms to Hynd

Ugh! Uwaaa!

After sparring, all members were in complete disrepair. Marya and Braum were lying with their arms outstretched, Aselle, almost depleted of mana, was leaning against the wall and vomiting. Ophelia, the only one to surrender before it got ugly, was sitting in a chair with an exhausted expression on her face, drinking a liquid she claimed was wine.

I dont think you will lose even if you fight Balzac now.

Exactly. After all the trouble Ive been through.

Ronan chuckled. Balzac was also a name he4 hadnt heard in a long time. The younger brother of the Shadow Duke who adored Ophelia. He had taken the Blood Essence and given it to Jarodin, but he wondered if both of them were doing well.

Dont be too disheartened. Look at what youve done.

Ronan gestured with his chin towards the mess that had become the training ground. It looked like a massive beast had rampaged through it in a drunken stupor.

Everywhere Maryas greatsword had struck was accompanied by huge rifts. Compared to the sword marks Ronan and Shullifen had left behind, it was on a level that would never yield.

Braum also displayed tremendous resilience. Although he was wearing a temporary shield called Hynd, if this were a battlefield and the enemy wasnt Ronan but an unspecified group of enemies, he would have saved the lives of all the members.

Ughhh Youre too much. Where did that come from even when I told you to stop

Its okay, kid. Its not that youre weak, its that devil thats weird.

Aselle muttered as he wiped his mouth. The voice of the Winter Witch came from the Vijra in his pocket. Suddenly, Ronan, who had become feverish, drew his sword.

Whats going on?

Phwaaaah! A crimson light emanated from the sword and wrapped around Aselles body. The distance between them narrowed. Aselles face turned pale as he closed his eyes and opened them to see Ronans approaching figure.

Aack! P-Please spare me!

I dont want to hear that from you, bro.

Ronan grabbed Aselles head with both hands and turned it towards the training ground. Ice spikes larger than ordinary buildings were growing all over the place. The slowly flowing coldness was lowering the temperature of the entire training ground. It was the same ice as the one wielded by the Winter Witch.

You dont even change your expression when youre attacking me like that with a hundred times more power, huh? Im too much? Apologize to me and other mages, brat. Say youre sorry for being born a genius.

If you really want to get technical, his expression did change.

Madame, please be quiet. Lets see if its for real.

Ignoring the Winter Witch, Ronan grabbed Aselles cheeks on both sides. His soft cheeks stretched out.

Hey, hey! I was born like this!

Whats the difference between the telekinesis youve been using since you were stealing goblin panties and my Aura? Huh? I can pull too, you know.

Aselle protested, but Ronan didnt let him go easily. As he twisted Aselles cheeks in different directions, his screams grew louder.

Aaargh! Let go!

This kid doesnt have any shame. Should I just tear him apart like this?

Of course, even as he thought that, Ronans lips curled up as if caught on his ears. Indeed, he was a talent that had received an offer from Lorehon. If this kid could break through the Protection of the Stars, he could have him fight the giants right away. Ronan smiled bitterly as he suddenly remembered the faces of the powerful individuals who had disappeared in his past life.

That is the most important thing.

He had to find a way to subvert it somehow. Or become strong enough to tear apart all those giants on his own. Ronan, removing his hand from Aselles cheek, turned his back. To catch up with the progress he missed while participating in the Festival of Swords, he felt he needed to practice in advance.

Darkness shrouded everywhere his gaze reached. Even as he turned his head as if doing gymnastics, it was the same. Ronan was about to launch his sword at what he thought was the new spell cast by the intruder when suddenly the darkness dissipated, and the moonlight, which had been obscured, poured down on his face. At the same time, Ronan, who saw the edge of the darkness, held his breath.

That!

It was the outline of a pair of wings. Resembling a bat, the wings covered more than half of Philleon. As he followed the wings and shifted his gaze to the right, this time he saw the tail. The tail, still being drawn from the back of the night sky, looked like a whip to punish divine beings. He was staring at the outline of the shadow when suddenly, with a snap, the shape of darkness disappeared, revealing the vast night sky.

What the fuck.

Ronan cursed. It was literally something that happened in the blink of an eye. No matter how much he looked around, he couldnt find the figure that had just been flying in the sky.

Im definitely dreaming.

Even after the disappearance of that something, Ronan remained in place. Too much had happened all at once, and his head wasnt working well. How much time had passed? From the direction of the central square he was heading to, he began to hear the conversation between a man and a woman.

The entrance ceremony is tomorrow, so why did you come today?

You ask me such a question when you know how mortals will treat me? Its going to be uncomfortable enough not being able to drink properly, but I need to talk to my son before that.

It was so quiet around that he could hear it without even focusing his ears. Ronan frowned. The womans voice was unfamiliar, but the mans voice was familiar.

He hid his presence and moved as discreetly as possible. Intargand, polymorphed into a human form, and a woman wearing a turned-over robe were engaged in a conversation. The woman, raising her arm, gently touched Intargands cheek.

By the way, this is quite impressive, Ir. Have you thought about learning from humans?

Well it just happened to turn out that way.

The arrogant Intargand was faltering. The womans face illuminated by the moonlight was indescribably beautiful. Her hair flowing beneath the hood was of a fiery crimson color. Standing on her toes, the woman who had been caressing Intargands head, leaned in with her lips.

Thats great of you. Come here.

Uh, Mother, it would be troublesome to act like this in front of the mortals

They cant see or hear anything, what does it matter? Now, come on.

From her actions, it seemed like she was trying to kiss him on his cheek. Intargand frantically waved his arms, expressing his refusal. For a moment, the womans face stiffened as if shocked.

Ir, you

Mother its not that

Intargand tried to console her with an apologetic expression. However, the woman had already turned her head away as if she had been hurt enough. Tears began to well up in her eyes as she spoke.

Thats too much. How long has it been since you left the lair, and now youre treating your mother like this? Ah Sob

I-I was wrong, Mother. Please dont cry. Okay?

Ronan watched the scene unfold while holding his breath. It wasnt difficult to deduce the identity of the woman. Who else would Intargand refer to as mother?

But it was just too surreal to believe that this was reality. It was different from what he had imagined. Taking a deep breath, Ronan slowly began to step backward.

Lets just go back quietly.

He decided to pretend he hadnt seen anything. Judging from the conversation, the magic that seemed to have stopped time was not used with malicious intent, so it would probably be undone soon. Yes, he should just go back and get some sleep. As he was in the midst of stepping backward

Oh, how tragic. Is this how I raised you?

As she turned her head sobbing, her eyes met Ronans by chance. In an instant, Ronans heart sank to his stomach. He quickly made a decision with superhuman speed and stopped moving. He mightve looked like taxidermy or a statue to anyone watching, but the woman had already seen Ronan move.

You. You arent affected by the spell?

What?! Mother, whats wrong!

Intargand exclaimed in astonishment upon hearing the womans words. Ronan desperately tried to convince them that he was a statue until then. The woman approached Ronan slowly and stopped in front of him. A voice completely different from before emerged from her parted lips.

Hello, there.

Hello. Lady Navardose.

Ronan opened his tightly shut eyes and spoke. Realizing that her magic didnt work on Ronan, Navardoses face turned fierce. Intargands shocked cry rang out in silence.
