Chapter 144: Door to Nibelheim

In any case, all members of the training field left.

Only Aaron and I remained at the training field.

Opened the iron gate of the dueling arena.

Come out. Staying here won't change anything.

I don't want to go.

Then I'll stay here.

I entered the dueling arena.

The bloodstains left by Verquist have faded. I sat next to Aaron, who was sitting there.

Aaron muttered in a calm voice.

I lost.

Yes, we lost.

I lost because I was weak. That's all.

Aaron's voice trembled slightly.

I asked: Why didn't you target his vital signs?

Aaron looked at me.

You had the advantage at first. Why did you give Verquist more time? He could have easily won.

You shouldn't kill your friends, right?

When did you start following this rule?

Even if Aaron had killed Verquist, I would have found a way to cover it up. I was sure Iserke would call it a sudden death rather than a heroic murder. Just like with fangwolves. But Aaron chose a different path. He was then targeted in his vitals, which ultimately led to his defeat.

I don't think I raised you to be that weak.

Aaron smirked.

I changed my mind. As you know, I have no talent.

I might have won now. Actually, I was confident that I could do it. But the more time passes, the stronger this guy comes back.

Aaron's voice gradually becomes quieter.

He couldn't continue.

Do I actually have the right to kill someone who is more brilliant than me?

Looking at Verquist and Nerissa, I felt that what I had done was meaningless. No matter how much time and effort you put into the difference in talent, did he show you mercy because he was

?

You shouldn't hurt your master. You are his important capital.

Aaron bowed his head.

I don't see what you and Jenna see. No matter how much I swing my spear, the fog in front of me won't clear up. It felt like I was just running on the spot.

Did it collapse naturally?

After returning from the 15th floor, Aaron began to change.

Since then, the intensity of training has become much more intense than before. However, when I dueled him, he felt weaker than before, despite his intense training. His confidence was gone.

What will happen to me now? I can't attend the first party, right?

This is not possible for the time being. But the stronger you become, the more likely it is.

The odds were not high.

Aaron probably knows that too. Fighting doesn't suit this man. It was like that from the beginning. He emphasizes it just for his sister.

There is a position called instructor. My job is to instruct new students at the practice area on the first floor. I think it suits you. The same goes for Dika.

Dika, who went to the first floor, will immediately be returned to the second floor.

He may be frail, but he is hardworking. Like Aaron, he is a hard worker and has solid skills. If he is given a leadership role, he will immediately fulfill his mission.

It's more comfortable than being in the first group. You don't have to worry about dying or bleeding. The training load is also reduced. All you have to do is teach the newcomers in a safe place.

Do you mean teach them?

Originally, this job was highly competitive. In some cases, the ratio may be several tens to one. I can especially recommend it for both of you. What do you think?

Aaron couldn't answer.

I took a deep breath.

That's enough. Just relax. I have the responsibility of getting you safely back to your sister.

But

Why are you hesitating? What are your goals? Will it become strong like Velquist? Wasn't your goal to return safely to your family?

The first group was probably Aaron's tomb.

The same goes for the secondary side. Mortality rates were low on the 10th to 15th floors, but there was no guarantee that they would continue. Eorca, Jenna, and even I could die. For Aaron himself, this was the best choice.

Yes, but

But?

Aaron had a complicated expression on his face.

He seemed to want to say something, but decided to remain silent, opening and closing his mouth.

I took a deep breath.

Is that so?

Sorry, Hyung-nim. I'm going to be an instructor.

Being a teacher is hell.

Huh?

If you don't want to do it, don't do it.

Aaron opened his eyes wide.

I continued with a chuckle.

I know someone like you, Aaron. He had no talent either. His spear skill was level 2, when it was your level. It was so bad that I tried to kick him out many times.

Aaron blinks in surprise.

He probably couldn't understand. Lastly, I talked about my time as a master.

Aaron, do you want to get stronger?

Your answer seems to be no.

No, that's not it, Hyunnim!

Aaron knelt down.

Tears filled the corners of his eyes.

I want to become stronger! I don't want to feel this miserable anymore! But for someone like me, there is no way.

There is a way. Wait for the door to open.

Beyond the open door of the training field, I saw a dimensional rift that was tightly sealed.

I pointed to this door.

I'll take you to Nibelheim.

Where is this?

I chuckled.

It's a very nice place.
