I could break the magical power of a large monster by myself, but some enemies that appear in the later parts use the special magical power of large monsters quite frequently.
Normally, you’d have to meet the King of Rights to learn this technique, but since it’s not a mandatory event, do I really need to go through that?
My schedule is already packed as it is.
So if I teach it to myself, that would be it.
“Is there such a technique?”
“All seasoned hunters know about it.”
“Wow… You’re amazing, Teacher~!”
“You just realized that now?”
“No!? Hehe! I’ve known you were amazing for a long time!”
With a bright smile, Arisha grabbed my arm and began to bounce around.
“Let’s hurry and go eat!”
After finishing our meal with Arisha, we arrived at the training ground.
Arisha, in her snug training outfit, was gently warming up.
Hmm. Looking at her this way, Arisha has a really nice figure. Everything’s in the right places!
“Huh? Teacher?”
A mischievous smile appeared on Arisha’s face as she warmed up.
Then she tiptoed over, looked up at me, and asked, “What were you just looking at?”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“Liars~.”
Despite usually appearing air-headed, her senses are sharp.
I flicked her clean forehead playfully.
Her lips pouted slightly from the pain, and I pinched her cheek lightly as I got ready.
“We don’t have time for jokes, so let’s get started. The technique I’m going to teach you is called Tonghwanggwon.”
“Tonghwanggwon?”
“It’s a type of my power where you force your magical power into someone else’s body. Pay close attention.”
I approached a rock I had prepared beforehand.
Feeling Arisha’s gaze on me, I slowly extended my hand toward the rock.
And then…
KA-BOOM!!
As soon as my hand touched it, the rock shattered into pieces.
Arisha’s eyes widened in surprise as she silently watched.
Seeing her rush over to examine the rock, I gently patted her back.
“How is it? Do you think you understand?”
“Um… It seems a bit difficult…”
“That’s possible. The important thing is how you move your magical power. Now, let me tell you the formula. The wind moves the sky…”
Arisha listened intently as if she wouldn’t miss a single word of the incantation I gave her.
After saying the formula about four times, I placed my hand on her back.
“I’ll guide the flow of magic.”
A golem brought the rock back.
I led Arisha to the rock, placing my hand on her back as I moved the magical power.
“…This feels weird.”
“Endure the weirdness.”
“It’s tickling… It feels like you’re caressing my body…”
Arisha said sweetly, her earlobes turning red. As I succeeded in guiding her magical power, I held onto Arisha’s arm.
“Umm…”
“Don’t make that sound.”
“But it feels good.”
“Focus instead of saying useless things.”
With a tch sound, Arisha raised her hand as I instructed. Then she slowly brought her hand to the rock and released her magical power.
KA-BOOM!!
At the same time, the rock broke apart.
It wasn’t completely shattered like mine, but it did break into several pieces.
“Okay, that’s done! Keep going.”
“…Can you do just a little more for me?”
“No.”
Arisha puffed her cheeks, looking dissatisfied.
I shrugged and stepped back.
“Can Sowol and Lena do this too?”
“Tonghwanggwon, you mean?”
“Yeah.”
“They can’t do it.”
“…Hehe. So it’s just you teaching me, huh?”
“Don’t misunderstand. I just didn’t see the need to teach them.”
Sowol’s Moonlight Sword originally ignores defensive capabilities, and Lena’s magic is strong enough to easily destroy the special magic of large monsters.
That’s why I didn’t teach them.
“Tch.”
“But you didn’t teach the others, so don’t be upset and practice hard.”
“Okay! Got it!”
What a cheerful little thing.
I continued to watch Arisha practice.
After about two hours of Tonghwanggwon training, Arisha slumped down onto the ground.
“Teacher… I can’t move at all.”
“That’s because you’ve exhausted all your internal magic. Don’t worry, you’ll recover after a good night’s sleep.”
I picked up the slumped Arisha.
She stiffened a bit, startled, but that was only for a moment.
With a joyful laugh, she hugged me.
“Hehe~. If you carry me to my room like this, I could practice every day!”
“Is this much a big deal?”
“But~. But~. You smell good!”
Saying that, she buried her face in my neck.
Her long hair was tickling my skin.
“Teacher.”
“What is it?”
“You know, you’re like a prince to me, right?”
“Like the prince from our class?”
“Ludwig? He’s too childish for my taste.”
Who’s the real child saying such things?
I shook my head in disbelief, and Arisha, hugging me tighter, whispered in my ear.
“I know you like me and my sisters.”
“Wow, what a great detective.”
“You’re not being honest!”
“That’s just how adults are.”
“Must be tiring being an adult~.”
“That’s pretty much how it is.”
“Not even able to say you like someone. Ah. Are you rejecting me because you can’t choose between me, Sowol, and Lena?”
“It’s not like that.”
“If that’s the case, it’s fine. I’m a generous girl. I’ll let Sowol and Lena join in too.”
I couldn’t help but laugh at her boldness, as if she’d already declared herself the main mistress.
As I chuckled, Arisha pouted and hugged me even more tightly.
After I carried Arisha to her room, a small commotion broke out.
Of course, it was because of Sowol and Lena.
Regardless, I laid Arisha on her bed and lightly tapped her forehead.
“Don’t do anything unnecessary today and rest well.”
“I want to wash up… Can’t you help me wash?”
“Are you serious?”
“Don’t worry! Master! I’ll wash you!”
“I-I’ll help too…!”
How reassuring can they be?
I patted Sowol and Lena’s heads.
“I can’t tell you how relieved I am to have you two here.”
“Hehe, who else will give you peace of mind if not me?”
“Don’t forget about me, okay?”
Seeing the proud faces of the two warmed my heart.
After all, they are my students!
“Then I’ll leave the rest to you.”
“Yes! Don’t worry!”
“Good night…”
“Sleep well, Teacher~! See you in your dreams~!”
Looks like I’ll have a nightmare today.

Days passed since I taught Arisha Tonghwanggwon.
Having received mission approval, I took my students to the Deorent Kingdom.
“Welcome!! You are now in the Deorent Kingdom!”
As we stepped out of the Dimension Magic Circle, those who seemed to have come from the kingdom were waiting for us.
Lumina lightly waved at them and ran to hug the girl at the front.
“Roya! Did you come out to greet me?!”
“Sister!”
The sight of the close sisters hugging each other was quite heartwarming.
Watching this, Arisha mumbled enviously, “I wish I had a sister too.”
“How about cheering up your parents to encourage them? So, shall we go?”
“Oh! Since you’re here, why don’t you visit our royal palace before you go? We’ve prepared a banquet for you at the parents’ request after hearing you were coming.”
A banquet prep, huh.
I looked around at my students. They seemed quite interested in the idea of a feast.
Supporting the students’ wishes is part of the teacher’s role, right?
“Then let’s do just that.”
“Thank you! Everyone! We’ll guide you to the Deorent Royal Palace!”
We boarded the prepared carriage, entering the capital and heading towards the grand Deorent Royal Palace. After going through a few formalities, we arrived at the royal audience room.
“Welcome, Lee Hyun.”
“It’s been a while, Your Majesty.”
The middle-aged man sitting on the throne greeted me with a smile.
Hearing my greeting, some students gasped in awe.
“Thanks to you, we survived the kingdom’s crisis last time, but it seems we’ll be needing your help again.”
“This time, can we consider it as my students lending their support instead?”
“Haha. Is that so? You turned down the position of Prime Minister but ended up as an Academy instructor. How is the teaching going?”
Teaching, huh…
I glanced at my students.
They all seemed to be eagerly awaiting my answer.
“It’s enjoyable. There’s no greater joy than watching my students grow.”
“Hahaha! A wonderful educator indeed. I entrust my daughter to you, Instructor Lee Hyun.”
“Leave her to me.”
“Now then! Keeping you here serves no purpose. We’ve prepared a banquet just for you, so enjoy yourselves!”
“Wooaa~!”
I followed my excited students as a palace attendant led us to the banquet hall.
As I was about to follow them, the king stopped me.
“Is something wrong?”
“I wanted to ask something. Have you noticed that the movements of the heretics have been quite abnormal lately?”
Unlike before, there was a shadow on the king’s face.
Are there also movements of heretics in the Deorent Kingdom?
But we’ve already cleared out most of the heretics over here, right?
“There’s a heretic sect called the Asura Sect active in the Deorent Kingdom.”
“…Oh, I see?”
Seems like I have to deal with Angela right away.
