The magician of the fairy tale world.

Chapter 25: The Sword Master Flees

After seeing his student in person, the swordsman's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

"Ah? You want me to teach this little girl swordsmanship?"

The swordsman was stunned, pointing his shaking fingers forward.

A few meters ahead, a little girl with hair that looked like melted gold stood obediently. She looked only 7 or 8 years old, graceful and polite, with a quiet and elegant temperament that exuded noble beauty.

"Yes. You will have sword sparring every day."

Rhine took out the wooden sword he had prepared long ago.

"I'm going to use such a big and heavy wooden sword to fight this little girl?"

The swordsman looked at the heavy wooden sword that was almost taller than the little girl and completely lost the ability to control his facial expression.

"of course not!"

Rhine flatly denied the swordsmanship master's guess.

The sword master breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Rhine threw the wooden sword to little Aurora.

"The wooden sword is for her, I'm afraid it might cut you. Just use a real sword."

The swordsman looked at the sharp sword at his waist, which was lingering with the smell of blood.

He looked ahead again, and saw the little blonde girl holding up a wooden sword taller than himself, looking carefully at her opponent.

The swordsmanship master suddenly felt that the world was a little unreal.

I'm not dreaming

Rhine shrugged, looking matter-of-fact.

Anyway, the little princess has the witch's blessing of "not being harmed by any weapon", so she won't be hurt by a real sword. But this mortal swordsman needs to worry about himself...

A few seconds later.

The swordsmanship master was knocked to the ground by Aurora's terrifying power. Feeling the pain in his body, he finally realized:

I am definitely not dreaming.

……

With the blessing of the witch, Princess Aurora's photographic memory and extraordinary learning ability were fully demonstrated in sword practice.

Any move, once seen once, will be memorized. When used, it will be as smooth as if practiced thousands of times. It may even be improved and surpass the original!
The blessing of eternal health and invulnerability allows Princess Aurora to practice a variety of high-risk or potential hidden actions without worrying about injury or leaving sequelae.

With all these factors combined, Aurora, who is learning combat skills, is like a monster in the skin of a little girl. She is making rapid progress and growing every minute!

Both Rhine and the witches were pleasantly surprised to see the princess's growth.

To be honest, the monster-like little Princess Aurora now gave them a lot of unreal feelings.

Every time they saw Aurora knocking down the sword master like a true swordsman, the witches screamed in their heads:

"The blessing on the princess, was it really given by us?"

Seeing Her Royal Highness the Princess making progress day by day, the only one who was in a bad mood was the swordsmanship master who was responsible for taking the beatings every day.

This little blonde girl, God knows what species she is.

Although she looks petite, she has incredible strength!

At the beginning, he was able to rely on his skills and swordsmanship to deal with Aurora. But after Aurora gradually learned his swordsmanship, he could only take the beating!
On this day, the swordsman, who was beaten black and blue, lay on his bed, tossing and turning, recalling a story that had been circulating in the kingdom in recent years. A story about a magician who could grant wishes.

"Sage from beyond this world, prophet who knows the future, wizard of miracles and wishes... I pray to you."

"My wish is: I hope I won't feel any pain when I wake up tomorrow morning."

That night, Rhine, who was sleeping in the next room and heard the prayer, sneaked into the swordsmanship master's room in the dark and used his best healing magic to heal him.

The next morning, the swordsmanship master's wounds were healed.

"No way. Is this legend true? Does praying really work?" The swordsmanship master was ecstatic.

Seeing that the swordsmanship master had recovered well from his injuries, Rhine was also very satisfied:

Great. This way I can use it for a longer period of time...

That night, the swordsmanship master lay on the bed and prayed devoutly, and made a wish: "Let me quickly finish this secret mission of His Majesty the King and stop practicing with this monster in a girl's skin."

Unfortunately, this time, the magician who granted wishes did not show mercy and fulfill his wish.

And so, many days passed.

……

Today, the brave swordsman escaped.

Of course, the core reason why he was able to leave successfully was that Rhine had repeatedly confirmed that he had nothing left to teach Aurora.

"It seems that there are no teachers in the kingdom who can teach Aurora."

Rhine has a headache.

This difficulty was something he had not thought of when he proposed the "Super Princess" plan:

Her Royal Highness the Princess learns too fast and at such a high level that no one can teach her!
“If Princess Aurora continues to stay in the kingdom, I guess she won’t learn anything.

"After a while, I can consider taking Her Royal Highness the Princess out of the kingdom and traveling around the world...

“Well, I also need to collect information about the black witch Maleficent. I wonder which country she, the culprit who cast the curse, has gone to?

"There has been no news about the black witch recently, and no clues about the prophecy. She must be able to block the prophecies of outsiders...

"By the way, contact His Majesty the King to see if there is any useful information about the black witch..."

Rhine gathered his thoughts and looked out the window at the gradually fading blood-red sunset. He was full of anticipation about taking Aurora out of the kingdom and embarking on an unknown, new journey.

The crimson sunset glowed on the boy's silver hair.

"By the way, where's Grandma Rosa? It will be her turn to take over from you and take care of Aurora in a while. Where is she?"

Rhine looked at the Violet Fairy.

Grandma Rosa is the one with the weakest magic among the 12 witches, and Rhine usually doesn't pay much attention to her.

"Before Rosa left, she told me that she knew the whereabouts of a powerful magical item. She would go treasure hunting during this period and would come back after obtaining the magical item." Violet replied.

"Powerful magic item? What is it?" Rhine asked puzzledly.

"She didn't tell me what the magic item's function was. She only mentioned its general appearance. The appearance of the item seemed to be..." Fairy Violet lowered her head and recalled.

"A tinderbox!"

　It is impossible to describe the growth process slowly at the age of one or two, so I will quickly go through it first. As a long-term character, the shaping of Princess Aurora's personality will have to wait until the following chapters.
