When the Ambassador greeted them, the others who had been standing behind came forward hesitantly and greeted me.
They were all faces I saw for the first time, but without exception, they were from the Ha clan.
It turned out that they had gone on a journey to the river by the order of the magistrate a few days before I entered, to inspect the factions within the volcano and look after the people’s hearts on the island. So I didn’t see them, and they didn’t know of my existence.
Anyway, after exchanging greetings, as there was no more business, my master and I continued on our way. As the conversation of the ambassadors behind us gradually faded, I suddenly felt a gaze on me.
There couldn’t possibly be a form to the gaze, but still, it felt like something was piercing my back…
Turning around, I locked eyes with one of the ambassadors. He seemed surprised as I turned, but soon faintly smiled and waved his hand.
Since we were already quite apart, the expression seemed natural, but I was able to notice it sharply.
The smile was awkward.
‘…Well, the volcano is where people live too.’
I was always aware of it, so I wasn’t surprised. I casually waved back and turned my head again.
(This is a time separator.)
By the time summer had passed and the end of autumn arrived, I finally began to learn the sword.
The wooden sword I first heard of gave a strange feeling. It was quite heavy but surprisingly easy to pick up, and the sensation of grabbing the handle was not as awkward as I thought.
While tilting my head and looking at the wooden sword in my hand, my master asked with a voice mixed with laughter.
“Is it strange?”
“Yes….”
“I thought you weren’t even interested in the sword.”
“Me?”
When I turned my eyes wide, he nodded his head with a faint smile.
No, I didn’t say anything because I thought he would teach me someday. I didn’t know he would take it that way. I rolled my eyes and replied.
“I thought the sword was a dangerous object, so I needed at least a minimum qualification to hold it. I thought it would be good not to be interested until I had the qualifications.”
“……You thought that way.”
My master seemed a little surprised, and after a moment of thought, he continued.
“You’re right. The sword is definitely a dangerous object. But those who enter the sword usually don’t think that far. Even me, when I first entered the mountain, I wanted to grab the sword right away and didn’t know what to do.”
“Oh, I…”
“It’s not that you were wrong. Rather the opposite.”
He said that, but I saw a flash of concern cross his face.
But it was very brief. My master quickly composed his expression, as if he didn’t want me to notice that concern.
‘What’s he worried about?’
Was it a problem that I didn’t act too childish? My earlier answer might have been a bit mature.
But since my master moved on to the main point, I had no time to focus on that issue.
“Now, starting today, you will be training in the Six Combination Sword. It has its origin in the same place as the Six Combination Mind Method you learned.”
I set down the tip of the wooden sword I had been holding, thinking that the explanation would not be short. Looking up at my master’s face, he continued to explain with a brief smile.
“I told you when you were learning the mind method, but the six combinations are heaven and earth, and the four directions, in other words, the world. If there’s no world, there’s nothing in the world, so the six combinations are everything in the world. As such, the Six Combination Sword is the foundation of all other swords you will learn later in the volcano, such as the Seven Plume Sword, the Jade Maiden Sword, the Five Elements Plum Blossom Sword, and the TwentyFour Water Plum Blossom Sword Technique. It’s the first sword technique you learn, but it can also be considered the most important.”
Around then, my master, who had stopped speaking, moved a few steps further from me and drew the sword that was hanging from his waist.
“It’s not that this explanation isn’t necessary, but a single action speaks closer than a hundred words. I’ll show you from beginning to end for now, so you look closely as best you can.”
Somehow, I feel like he’ll ask me to unfold it as I remember it after showing it all….
I straightened my back, anticipating what was to come, and fixed my gaze on my master. My master, having confirmed my gaze, slowly raised his sword.
The blade reflected the sunlight, casting a momentary flash.
At the same time, it began to move, sharply cutting through the air.
The movement itself was not flashy or particularly fast and furious. It was perhaps a little simple, as it was a sword technique that was the basis of all swordsmanship.
However, since the one demonstrating the swordplay was none other than the Volcano’s Best Sword, there was a compelling force that made it impossible to look away throughout.
It felt like I had been momentarily entranced, but before I knew it, the demonstration was over.
“Did you see it well?”
“Yes? Yes…….”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
