Hunter Academy’s Battle God

Chapter 158

"How about we send Adela, Li Jn, and YuSung to the Tower together? I've already talked with WonHak about this."

A low voice spread through the cafe. The Sword God put away her sword when she saw Ardens serious expression.

"Send Li Jn to the Tower with your disciples...? What an unexpected proposal."

"We were the world's strongest party. Sword God, don't you want to see their synergy? Even if you refuse, I will send Adela to the Tower with YuSung."

Arden called her 'Sword God' instead of using her name because she hated her real name.

"Really? You're being quite aggressive about this."

The Sword God moved her hands to her mouth before she noticed she didn't have her pipe. She clicked her tongue and leaned back against the sofa.

"I don't mind. As long as Li Jn gets stronger."

"As I thought... You still haven't given up on it?"

"Give up...? Did you just say give up?"

Swoosh!

The Sword God put her hands on her sword, and a sound like wind blowing through the fields whispered out.

Slash! Boom!

The table was split in half. The Sword God glared at Arden.

"Completing my swordsmanship is my life's goal and desire! Despite that, you wondered if Id given up?"

A normal person would've lost their mind at the intense killing intent, but Arden just looked at the Sword God as if nothing had happened.

"But you've left that achievement to your disciple..."

The Sword God's expression hardened.

After her body changed because of an unknown Tower reward, the level of her swordsmanship declined. Her arms had become shorter, her stride had changed, and the changes on her body were too sudden. With her body in such a state, she wouldn't be able to reach the peak of the swordsmanship she'd been craving.

Her original swordsmanship had been based on her original body, so it didn't go well with her changed body.

Thanks to that, the Sword God wouldn't be able to complete the 'Sword of the Ruler'.

Arden looked at the Sword God with a bitter expression.

"Li Jn isn't you, so even if your disciple completes it..." Arden was telling her the harsh truth. "It wont be your Sword of the Ruler... I'm sure you know that."

She would've fallen into despair if it were the Sword God of the past, but she gave Arden a calm look.

"I know, but it doesn't matter. I just want to see... A swordsmanship that has reached the peak."

The peak she wasn't able to reach.

"Okay. If that's your wish... It should be okay!"

Was it because he'd heard the honest feelings of the Sword God? Arden stopped asking questions.

"But this is too bad... Despite becoming younger, you're making a depressed expression, and you even haven't brushed your hair! How about you leave it to your old friend?"

Arden had brushed Adela's hair since she was little, so he was confident in his skills.

A blank expression on her face, the Sword God pulled out her sword.

YuSung's party had managed to reach the semi-finals of the International Competition, so they were greeted by all of the 1st-year students.

"The king has returned!"

"King? More like Gaon's god! The Battle God has returned!"

"Ehem. What's everyone doing? Roll out the red carpet."

Led by Renia, a red carpet was rolled into the main corridor of the Academy.

Slide!

"What's going on?"

SiWoo gave the carpet a reluctant look, and Renia lowered her head.

"Oh. If it isn't Gaon's Bomb Demon, Lee SiWoo!" Renia covered her mouth and looked at him in surprise.

Lee SiWoo frowned. "Bomb Demon? What are you talking about?"

"It it seems like... you left a strong impression... There were lots of your pictures on the internet, Sumire said with a grin on her face.

Amy joined the conversation. "Do you want to see one?"

BOOM!!

The picture was of SiWoo walking away from the explosion.

"What? I'm satisfied with YuSung having believed in me and in being able to do what I had to do." Although he said that, SiWoo didn't seem to feel annoyed at the attention he was receiving.

Sumire felt good as she looked over her party members. "Fufu. The year is almost over..."

"Well, there's still a lot of things to do. For example, the tests and the International Competition." SiWoo mumbled while putting his hands on the back of his neck.

Someone stood in his way.

Her hair color was similar to YuSung's, and just like always, she was making a relaxed smile.

"Hello?"

YuSung's eyes narrowed at Shin HaYoons unexpected appearance. There was no way she didn't notice the change in him.

"Don't be like that~ I just came here to congratulate you as the Student Council President."

Amy, who had previously talked with her, waved her hand. "Ah, it's the Student Council President!"

"Ah, we've already met, right? Yes, Amy, to think that you'd all reach the semi-finals and become winning candidates. Your party leader is truly impressive." Shin HaYoon smiled at Amy; then she added, "As the Student Council President, I'm proud of your party..."

An outsider might have thought it was an honest congratulations, but YuSung's expression was serious.

The Shin HaYoon he knew wouldn't congratulate another person unless she had a hidden agenda.

She smiled and said, "Ah, party leader YuSung... I'm going to be visiting you later with a familiar face, so free up some time for me."

YuSung calmly replied, "I could give you 10 minutes..."

Who Shin HaYoon was talking about was clear, but Shin YuSung was wondering what their reaction would be.

"Okay. That's more than enough. Then, everyone, see you next time."

As HaYoon left, Lee Hyuk gave him her call card. Hyuk was like Shin HaYoon's personal manager. Although he was still a student, he dealt with enough business that he needed to have a call card on hand.

"As expected of the Student Council President! She's kind of cool. For some reason, I think that they look similar to each other."

As Amy took a closer look at YuSung's face, SiWoo smirked.

"Not at all. Only their surname is similar."

Not many people knew that YuSung had been part of the Shin-oh family.

Most people only knew that he used to be in an orphanage.

Amy smiled, and then she turned her head to YuSung. "Am I mistaken? I think you look similar to each other... Ah! Party leader! Where's EunAh on a day like this?"

Since EunAh had turned into a seven-year-old child for three days thanks to Lorelei's skill, she wasn't in the Academy at the moment.

* * * *

The Shinsung Group family was usually a silent bunch

But it was a rare exception to that case.

The Shinsung Group family members were noisily talking while hanging around the younger EunAh.

"EunAh, is anime that fun? Even still, why don't you have a snack first?"

Kim SeokHan tried to give EunAh the snack he'd prepared. As his hands reached her head, EunAh glared at him while electricity sparked out of her.

"Grandfather, I'm watching anime... I don't want snacks!"

As Kim EunAh pouted while using the orca as a pillow, SeokHan just laughed benevolently. "I'm sorry! Haha, I've bothered you! That can't be!"

After returning to her seven-year-old self, EunAh looked like the manifestation of cuteness.

Melting down her grandfather was easy.

"EunAh was the cutest at this age!"

Her oppa, Kim JunHyuk, also looked at her and laughed.

She frowned. "Ugh... I can't listen to the anime... Everyone's too noisy..."

EunAh once again glared at her family members, but her attitude wasn't menacing. Her cuteness still put their hearts at risk though.

"Although EunAh is my daughter... She's really the best."

As YunHa, her mother, proudly said that, her father, Kim SungHan, smiled and said, "Isn't that because of our great genes?"

"Hmm? Really? Then why don't we use our great genes to make a third child?"

The atmosphere between the two was starting to heat up; SungHan cheekily raised his eyebrows.

"Of course..."

The situation in the house was a mess. EunAh drooped her shoulders like an adult and sighed.

"Everyone's too annoying~"
