Subscriber of the Gods Episode 32

Episode 32. It starts and it’s late

Something happened that no one expected.

“It was overwhelming.”

“Are you really Prince Ethan?”

“Yes, it’s definitely Master Ethan. And he’s the same old Master.”

When Ethan was called a swordsmanship genius.

The Wickus Knights trained with Ethan every day.

It was a time when the Knights were greatly stimulated by seeing Ethan grow differently every day.

At that time, Ethan didn’t look like a sickly young man like he does now, but rather he was sharp and fierce, and he gave off the feeling that if you said the wrong thing to him, he would cut or stab you.

I saw a glimpse of that time in the current Ethan.

“The winner is Ethan Wickes!”

The sparring ended as soon as the general raised his hand.

Letra Junta didn’t even have a clue what was happening.

“Hey, wait a minute! What was the last one?”

He turned around and asked Ethan urgently as he was about to leave the training ground.

“Whickus Sword Technique 6th Form.”

The final attack was not even visible.

But that was the 6th form? Are you saying that the 6th form, which is neither the 7th nor the 8th form, is invisible?

Meanwhile, it wasn’t just Letra Junta who was surprised.

The expression on Count Junta’s face hardened at the unexpected result, and his followers were also shocked.

“Your Majesty… … is giving such a one-sided order.”

“What on earth was Prince Ethan doing? I heard that his illness had worsened and he couldn’t move properly.”

That wasn’t a lie.

In fact, his illness was so serious that the economy of the Earldom of Wickes was in turmoil.

Moreover, many people confirmed it directly.

Because there were many people in this place who remembered Ethan when he was sick.

Even now, doesn’t that body look weak?

Although his gait was certainly impressive, it was not enough to say that he was cured.

Even in that state, he lost.

“… … .”

Letra Junta lowered her head.

Ethan saw such a letra.

‘This is the turning point.’

Ethan made plans to cut off support from the Junta County and become independent.

However, it was foolish to make a stand against the powerful Countess of the nearby county.

‘You said earlier that you hadn’t forgotten the festival sparring.’

Of course, Ethan didn’t know.

But it was clear that this incident had made Letra feel hostile.

‘Is it difficult to see this as hostility?’

Then perhaps what Letra felt was disappointment.

‘I understand that feeling. I’ve also been disappointed when I saw a player I had targeted quit.’

“You’ve improved quite a bit, Letra.”

When he spoke as if he remembered the festival sparring, Letra looked at Ethan with surprised eyes.

“I remember that day because everyone else was in a bad mood besides you.”

At those words, Letra’s eyes lit up for a moment.

Got recognition from Ethan.

That one fact made Letra happy.

-Your chances of survival increase.

‘huh?’

And that increased Ethan’s chances of survival.

Letra smiled at Ethan.

“You were strong, Ethan Wickes. I will work harder to reach you.”

Letra nodded and went down with a relieved expression.

“I must train harder, Father. Now that I have mastered the art of the hunta sword, this is no time to be playing around.”

Count Junta, who had been making a not-so-good expression, also realized that his son had broken a wall when he saw Letra’s expression that seemed relieved.

“That was great, Prince Ethan. I can understand what you meant by withdrawing.”

Count Junta approached Ethan.

“Apart from the withdrawal, I would like to invest in the Wickers County after seeing you. Is that okay?”

“Of course. Let’s make it 8:2.”

Although it was a remark as harsh as a robbery, Count Junta nodded coolly.

“Don’t do that.”

After Count Junta and his party left, Count Wickers kept blinking to see if this was really real.

It was something I had been hoping for for a long time.

I hope your first son gets better soon.

No, even if it doesn’t get better, I just want to be able to live a normal life.

But then I saw a reality beyond that.

“You don’t have to worry anymore.”

You may be threatened with death at any time, but at least you won’t die in an absurd way.

“Thank you for your concern.”

At Ethan’s single word, the Count felt as if all the hardships he had endured were washed away.

“Don’t get sick anymore.”

* * *

“This is Yeri Ka. She’s my business partner whom I met during my recent outing.”

“Hello, Count. My name is Yerikha.”

Yereka smiled and gave an example.

Although she lived as a fugitive during her childhood, she received solid etiquette training from her mother.

Moreover, since she was also beautiful, Count Wickus happily accepted her greeting.

“Thank you for hanging out with us, Ethan. He may seem unreliable because he’s so sickly, but that’s just his appearance. He’s actually a solid kid.”

“I know, Count. He really has incredible swordsmanship skills. He’s also stronger than I thought. That incredible beast… … .”

Ethan glanced at Yereka, telling her to shut up.

Yeri was quick-witted, so she quickly shut her mouth.

“I’m planning to do business with Yeerika. I originally wanted to borrow some more money from my father, but Count Junta has agreed to provide me with quite a bit of money, so I don’t think I’ll need to take any money.”

“So, what kind of business are you planning to do? If you start a business, you’ll have to stay in the territory for quite some time. You’re not planning to become a merchant, are you?”

I’ll support you no matter what you do, but I never thought Ethan would become a merchant.

“I’m planning to go to Ibeka Academy.”

“To the Academy? But my age… … .”

“I plan to go as a teacher, not as a student.”

“… … !”

Count Wickers looked amazed at Ethan’s words.

“I don’t think the Ibeka Academy is an easy place to get into. Are you trying to use your business as a springboard to get into the program through donations?”

Donation-based admissions weren’t just for students.

Teachers who wish to be employed also have the opportunity to be hired as Academy teachers through donation admissions.

Of course, I wasn’t able to teach properly.

The important thing is the label of being a former teacher at Ibeka Academy.

With just this tag, I could easily go anywhere.

Even when applying to places like the Royal Knights, you get extra points.

“Because those who need the name of the Academy often look for honorary teaching positions. Hmm, not bad. If you’re a former Ibeka Academy teacher, there’s bound to be a position for you anywhere.”

“No, I’m not interested in being an honorary teacher. I want to be a real teacher.”

“huh?”

For a moment, Count Wickers was taken aback.

“Are you really going to become a teacher?”

“yes.”

‘Ibeka Academy is going to collapse soon. There are so many events going on there.’

That meant that he could build up a great reputation there.

‘That’s the place I know best.’

Ethan knew the Ibeka Academy very well after its downfall.

Since the game started in a state of ruin, rebuilding the ruined Ibeka Academy was one of the scenarios.

Since no matter how you play, it is ultimately connected to the main scenario, allowing for a variety of plays, so playing the Academy was the classic among classics.

That’s why Ethan planned to make a big name for himself there.

As your fame increases, you will naturally be able to meet the saint.

‘If you are a saint, you will definitely be able to lift this curse.’

If that happens, it will be a relief.

Living with a curse in this cruel world was like moving around with a few chains attached.

“But not everyone can become a teacher, Ethan. If you get into a donation-based school, you’re limited to an honorary professorship. You need to have the skills to teach.”

Ethan was a swordsman, but his skills were limited to the area where the Earldom of Wickers was located.

The continent is vast.

The Earldom of Wickus is a remote fiefdom far from the center, and if you go to the center, no one will call Ethan a swordsman.

Nathan Wickers, who was known as a magical genius in this area, also went to the Academy and had a very hard time.

Because no one acknowledged his skills.

“I know your abilities the best, Ethan. But the world is vast. The center is very developed. Ibeka Academy is an academy located in the center. Do you know what that means?”

“It means that a group of strong people like stars are gathering. Students and teachers alike.”

“The Freya Academy where Nathan is is also in the center. Why not aim for Freya instead? Nathan is already getting good grades, so you will be able to fully benefit from that as well.”

But Ethan shook his head.

Freya Academy was a great academy that rivaled Iveca Academy.

But the principal there just so happened to be Changwang.

‘The king is crazy.’

If we were to judge him by good and evil, he was closer to evil, and the reason he inherited Freya Academy was very simple.

‘To fight stronger guys. That’s why I lead the academy.’

A person whose only purpose is to fight strong people. In that case, there’s no way he wouldn’t pay attention to Ethan.

‘It’s too dangerous.’

It was too dangerous to get close to that king.

So, even though it was a little difficult, it was better to go to Ibeca.

Ibeka’s headmaster was a man called Ghostblade, and he was at least more gentle than the Spear King.

“Then you should choose a different subject. There are so many people with good skills in swordsmanship. The competition rate will be extremely high.”

Since the Ibeka Academy was known as one of the best academies, there were a lot of applicants.

From nameless masters to the second generation of central aristocrats, a great number of people wanted to take up the teaching post.

“If it doesn’t work out, I’ll focus on my business and then join the Knights Templar.”

Ethan first calmed down his worried father.

“Don’t worry. If it doesn’t work out, then so be it.”

As he said that with a smile, only then did Count Wickers’ expression brighten.

Of course, Ethan had no intention of stopping.

* * *

“Would that really be a business?”

Count Wickers, who had heard Ethan’s serious business story, had doubts once again.

It seemed like his son was trying something new, but to Count Wickers it all seemed like a risk.

“Have you thought about developing your territory?”

“Development of the territory?”

It was a really long time since I heard those words.

The County of Wickes, which had already entered a period of stagnation, had long since stopped developing.

That doesn’t mean the count was thoughtless.

“There are many things I want to build. I want to make the market a little bigger, and I want to increase welfare for the people of Yeongji. I heard that the back alleys have been noisy lately. I also want to increase the number of knights to maintain order, but I have to have something.”

The Count already knows what the Wickers County needs.

“You can prepare that.”

Ethan said.

“It’s too late once you start a business, Father.”
