Man is infinite, and his ambition is to slay the dragon

【Yes】

After a moment of silence, Sieg said, "If you want me to accept your terms, then at least tell me a few more things."

"Oh? What else do you want to know?"

(Miss Brunhilde.)

[Yes. Please repeat after me——]

Listening to what Brunhilde said in his mind, Sieg repeated: "First of all, the National Akatsuki Academy is still just a concept, right? The academy itself does not exist, it is just a verbal name."

"You figured it out, that's great." Yueying Moya smiled and clapped her hands. "But in the near future, it will indeed come true. In fact, I have already prepared several [students] besides you, and each of them is an excellent talent."

"For example, the only A-rank student knight in Japan. Coincidentally, he has many similarities with you in his views on the domestic education environment. I think the two of you should be able to talk to each other."

The only A-rank student knight that Japan had ever had?

A guy like that has actually joined Akatsuki Academy?

(Ms. Brunhilde, can you find out who that is?)

[It has been prepared a long time ago. The current information is: a third-year student at Wu Qu College, named Kurogane Ouma, an A-level knight, with a special ability of wind that interferes with nature.]

Black Iron Royal Horse.

Having the same surname as the Kurotetsu siblings, does that mean he is also from the Kurotetsu family?

"I know that just one meeting won't convince you, so I'm here just to meet you. Before the Seven Stars Sword Festival officially begins, you have time to consider. Akatsuki Academy welcomes you to join at any time, Sieg. And if you want to know more, this is my private number, you can leave me a message. Of course, I'm not sure if I can make time for you, after all, the Prime Minister is still very busy."

Moony Teeth pulled a notebook out of her pocket, wrote down her phone number, and handed it to Sieg.

"Well, my meeting with you ends here. Let the other person who wants to see you come and talk to you next."

"another?"

Sieg immediately spread out his perception, but within the range of his perception, there was no one waiting outside the door.

It hasn’t arrived yet—

"Crack-"

The sound of the door opening interrupted Sieg's thoughts and made his eyes widen suddenly. He jumped up almost as if by reflex, and the silver sword in his hand instantly appeared and pointed at the door!

At the door, a white-haired woman in casual clothes raised her lips slightly when she saw this: "It seems that I scared you? - I shouldn't be late, right?"

"Well, it's your turn now, Ed."

Yueyingmoya left the reception room after saying this.

"Thank you. Then—"

After watching him leave, the goddess-like white-haired woman cast her eyes on Sieg who was on high alert, and took out a blood-stained piece of ice from her pocket: "Your name is [Sieg Fehr], right? I've been looking for you for a long time."

"It's not polite to break into someone else's home without permission."

52.【Wings】Edelweiss

【who is she?】

This was the first question that came to Zig's mind.

[She is absolutely insanely strong]

This was a fact that Sieg came to intuitively realize.

After hearing what the other party said, Sieg clenched his silver sword even tighter and stared at her as if facing a formidable enemy: "You... have been looking for me? But I don't know you."

"Don't you know me?"

The woman with snow-white hair frowned slightly, then smiled and said, "Yeah, that's right. Although I have indeed been looking for you, we have only met once, and we were dozens of kilometers apart. In addition, I am not someone who can appear in the media, so it is normal that you don't know me."

"So - [End of August last year, the top of Sword Peak Edberg], if that's the case, can you remember anything?"

"......Eh?"

The time and place suddenly brought Sieg back to his memories.

......

It was the end of August last year, which was right after the Seven Star Sword Festival ended, right?

Since there was no one in the school, Sieg continued to travel around the world via the Kreinsheed's teleportation device as usual. After living in a desert in Africa for three days, Sieg wanted to go to a cooler place.

After being screened by the Kreinshilde, Sieg was finally teleported to a mountain called "Edberg".

That is the highest mountain on the planet, with an elevation of 9350 meters, known as the Sword Peak. Its peak is covered by cold storms all year round, with a constant temperature of below zero, almost like permafrost that never melts. The top is sharpened by strong winds and ultra-low temperatures into a Sword Tip that reaches the sky.

Although Sieg was not afraid of temperature changes at all, the extremely drastic temperature difference from the desert where people could die of heat to the top of a mountain where people could freeze to death still made him feel a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, there was a small house not far from the landing point.

[This should be the so-called mountaineering hut, right? ]

Sieg had some knowledge about mountaineering and knew that there were mountain huts on some snowy mountains for tourists to temporarily stay and rest, so he didn't think much about it and hid in it directly. He used it as a resting place when he stayed on the Sword Peak and lived there for about three days.

Now that I think about it, the altitude of that hut was over 8,000 meters, and when I moved in, I did see some signs of other people living there. Maybe it was originally someone's home, but Sieg didn't think about it at all at the time. After he recovered, he ran to the top of Edberg again. After all, the environment there was quite harsh and very suitable for training and practice.

On the third day of training, I remember it was at night? Sieg was preparing lunch in the hut when he suddenly felt as if he was locked by a breath. He got goose bumps all over his body, and even felt like his whole body was cut into pieces for a moment!

Although he didn't find anything unusual after searching around, Sieg returned to the Kreinshede after dinner because he trusted his intuition and had stayed there for three days.

......

The memory ends.

Sieg looked at the woman who smiled at him with a strange expression: "Could it be... that's your home?"

"Well, it seems you remembered it."

The woman nodded slightly. "I happened to be traveling for a short time at that time. On the way back, I suddenly felt that someone was at home, so I paid a little attention. When I got home, I found that my house seemed to have been visited by a thief."

"The sofa and bed had been slept in, some of the food stored had been used, and although the kitchen looked cleaned, it was obviously used as well... To be honest, I was a little angry and surprised at the time."

"Uh......"

Looking at the woman walking towards him while talking and smiling, Zieg subconsciously took a half step back, his expression becoming a little embarrassed: "So... you are here to collect a debt? But I left a reward at that time!"

Yes, Zieg did not get it for free. When he left, he put a bag of money on the table. It was the reward for a commission he accidentally accepted in the Middle East last year. Since he did not need to spend money much, he kept it all.

"Ok, I know."

"That--"

"I know, but even I would feel uncomfortable if my home was used by a stranger for several days."

Sieg's expression, which had just relaxed for a moment, immediately turned serious and solemn after the woman said this: "...You, you think that the reward is not enough?"

"That's not true."

The woman shook her head. "Although I am a little uncomfortable, it happened several months ago after all. I don't hold a grudge and don't really care about it now. But I have always been curious about the person who moved into my house without permission. It may be strange for me, but I don't think anyone can just approach my house casually."

indeed.

The hut is located on a mountain over 8000 meters above sea level. Ordinary humans cannot get close to it, let alone live there.

"So over the past few months, I have been looking for you - well, that being said, but I haven't been looking for you on purpose. After all, even if I do nothing, the [gravity] of fate will pull you and me together." The woman shook the blood-stained ice in her hand.

"Is this stained with your blood? I found it on the top of the mountain. It looks like you went through some rigorous training there. The entire mountaintop is covered in blood and broken limbs. Did you commit suicide there?"

"Uh... not really... just normal training."

Sieg lowered his silver sword a little while saying this. "So, your purpose is just to... come to me? You have no other purpose?"

"For now, this is it. If I must say anything, I just want to get to know you. Speaking of which, I haven't introduced myself yet, right?"

[Lord Sieg, I have found the identity of this woman.]

When the woman said this, a similar voice was heard from Brunhilde's side.

【she is--】

"My name is [Edward Weiss]. If you find it strange, I can also tell you other names that people have given me—"

[Biyi, the world's strongest swordsman, the world's most vicious criminal]

After listening to what Brunhilde said, Sieg raised the tip of his sword, which had been lowered for less than thirty seconds, again!

--【fly wing to wing】

——【The World's Strongest Swordsman】

"You are...Edelweiss?"

Sieg never thought that he would meet one of the most recognized "strongest" on the planet in such an unexpected way.

53. I can skip class for you

During the past year of traveling around, Sieg had learned a lot about this world, and in his opinion, there were at least ten people on this planet who were better than him.

For example, Lord Whitebeard, the number one magic knight in the KOK A-class alliance and also the director of the International Magic Knight Alliance headquarters.

For example, there is the "Superman" who commands the strongest troops at a young age and is known as the strongest in the entire United States and even in the alliance of major powers.

For example, the "Tyrant", who has dominated the underground world of the entire planet since the great war decades ago and is known as the leader of all evil parties.

......

From Sieg's current understanding, these people are undoubtedly demons who have surpassed their own limits and escaped the fate of this planet. Among these people, there is one person whose deeds Sieg is particularly concerned about.

Fifteen years ago, a major military crisis occurred near the Baltic Sea.

Russia, which had become a core member of the [Great Power Alliance] at that time, launched an invasion against Estonia, which had not yet joined the [Alliance]. Based on its confrontational policy with the Alliance, the Alliance sent troops without Estonia's permission, which almost triggered the scale of the Third World War.

However, the war did not break out in the end, because before that, the combined army of more than 300,000 from the Alliance and the Coalition was completely wiped out - by a young girl.

The girl held two swords and launched a unilateral attack on the 300,000-man army alone. It was said that neither the Alliance nor the Allies had any means to fight against her. Even after that, both sides issued a sky-high wanted order for the girl, but no one had ever been able to hunt her down. In fact, because of a series of failures, the girl's reputation spread throughout the world.

Ten years later, a large-scale coup d'état was launched in Estonia. With the change of regime, three small countries including Estonia announced their decision to join the union. But at that time, everyone knew that the girl who annihilated 300,000 troops ten years ago lived in Estonia, so all parties were very concerned about how Estonia would deal with this matter.

Finally, the then Estonian president made a decision that shocked the whole world.

[Our country has given up the ownership of the land around Edelberg where 'Biyi' is hiding, so 'Biyi' has no connection with our country anymore. 】

Such a great country actually tucked its tail between its legs, even threw away its sense of shame, disregarded the world's public opinion, and cruelly gave up its territory - just to escape from a human being.

Because they couldn't do anything to her.

Because his swordsmanship is enough to rival that of an entire country, one man can rival an entire country.

Since then, the girl named "Bi Wings" has gained two new titles: "The World's Strongest Swordsman" and "The World's Most Vicious Criminal".

To be honest, Sieg didn't care what title she was given. The only thing he cared about was that this woman named "Biyi" single-handedly annihilated 300,000 enemy troops.

Because the moment he knew this, Sieg had an idea.

Can I defeat her?

Sieg is not a warlike person, but in order to survive, he needs to take various situations into consideration. And if one day he has to fight with this [Biyi] and must defeat her in order to survive - Sieg thinks he must think about this matter.

And now...

“Buzz——————!”

In an instant, when he fully understood the identity of the woman in front of him, a strong wave of magic power was released from Sieg's body! The ultra-low temperature cold air vented out like a wave!

The moment they met, Sieg instinctively determined that the woman in front of him was definitely not a weakling, but a strong person who required his full attention and even his life, so now, Sieg had no intention of holding back at all.

——Exploding Dragon......

"I don't intend to fight with you."

Just before Sieg was about to use Dragon Flash to destroy the entire building again, Edwards said this in a soft voice, and Sieg immediately felt as if his whole body was cut hundreds of times in an instant! The scene of himself being torn into pieces once again appeared in his mind!

"------!"

The chill that instantly spread throughout his body forced Sieg to stop the Dragon Flash. The magic power and cold air that burst out also instantly retracted into his body, as if they had never appeared.

At this time, Sieg realized that his palms were full of cold sweat, and his clothes were also wet with sweat.

"Calm down?"
