I Became a Swordsmanship Instructor at the Academy Chapter 274


Became a sword instructor at the academy (274)

—Did you leave?

“Yeah. Brother. I’m about to board the plane.”

—Okay. I’m on my way to the airport too. See you later.

I was very worried when he suddenly decided to leave Seoul and move to Jeju Island.

I heard that his novel was a big hit and he made a lot of money, but he didn’t seem very happy.

Of course, he bought me a lot of alcohol and meat and gave me plenty of pocket money, but he always did that.

On the contrary, he seemed darker and more depressed than before.

On top of that, he asked me about my parents, which he never did before, and even went to see them.

Finally, a month ago, he cleaned out his room and moved to Jeju Island, where he had no connections.

There is a saying that if you do something you’ve never done before, you will die, but surprisingly, my brother’s voice was very cheerful.

Maybe Jeju suits him?

“We will be taking off shortly. Please fasten your seat belts.”

“Yes.”

After a 40-minute flight, we arrived at Jeju Airport.

As soon as I got off the plane, I saw my brother waiting for me.

He was wearing a colorful flowery shirt, so I spotted him right away.

Not only did his voice sound good, but he looked good too.

“You’re here? Give me your luggage.”

“Thanks.”

“Thanks for coming.”

“It’s no trouble. It’s just a short flight.”

“I appreciate you taking the time to come. Let’s go. The parking lot is over there.”

“Did you buy a car? What did you get?”

“Just a used car. It’s hard to get around Jeju without a car.”

My brother and I left the airport and headed for the parking lot.

Since he lives alone, I thought he would buy a mid-sized car, but I was wrong. My brother stopped in front of a red sports car.

“Give me your backpack. The car looks small, but the trunk is surprisingly big.”

“Bro, is this really your car?”

My brother has never been interested in cars, so why did he buy a car like this?

“Would I ask you to ride in someone else’s car? Get in.”

My brother said as he put my luggage in the trunk. He really is my brother.

“Isn’t this a foreign car?”

“Yes, but it’s used, so it doesn’t cost much. Oh, the roof opens too.”

As he said that, he put on the sunglasses he had hanging around his neck, and I couldn’t believe it was my brother.

He said it wasn’t much, but it looked like it would easily cost several thousand dollars…

“It’s okay, bro. Live a little.”

“You don’t have to say that. I spend a lot without you knowing. You’d be surprised if you saw my house.”

“Is your house far away?”

“It’s about 40 minutes from here. You haven’t had lunch, have you?”

“I bought a hamburger at the airport before boarding the plane.”

“A hamburger is your meal? That’s a snack.”

“Why are you taking me to a famous restaurant?”

“No, I’m taking you to my house.”

“Your house? Okay. I’d like to have your pasta, it’s been a while.”

“Pasta? You have pasta?”

“You have pasta? You didn’t order a buffet for your business trip, did you?”

“What are you talking about? Why would I order a buffet for you? It’s not like that.”

Then what is it? Are you living with someone?

No, you’re not. You said you never wanted to get married.

He said he wasn’t responsible enough to take care of someone else.

But now the situation has changed, so I’d like to meet her.

“Is Hye-seon working at the hair salon?”

“Huh? Yeah, she is. If we both go downstairs, there won’t be any customers.”

“Is that so? Anyway, Hye-seon should come with us next time. I’ll show her around.”

“Sure. Actually, I was talking to Hye-seon about you the other day.”

“About me? What did you say?”

“One of Hye-seon’s friends is an elementary school teacher. She used to work in Seoul, but she just moved to Jeju Island. If you’re interested, I can introduce you…”

“No, thanks.”

“Come on, give her a chance. I met her once with Hye-sun, and she was pretty, had a nice personality, and seemed kind.”

“I said no. Someone with such good qualities must have many suitors. I’m not interested.”

“What do you mean, not interested? I mentioned you to her, and she seemed interested.”

“Isiu.”

“You can at least meet her once.”

I kept urging him, but my brother frowned and shut his mouth.

What a shame.

“Don’t be like that. I’ll show you her photo when we get home.”

“Ugh, you’re really…”

“Things are different now. You need to meet women. Do you want to end up living alone when you’re old?”

“You’re going to end up… Never mind. It’s better if you see it for yourself. We’re here. Get out.”

Looking ahead, he saw a large gate.

The house looked quite big, but there was nothing around it.

“Did you buy a house in such a remote place?”

“I hate noise. It used to be the house of a celebrity.”

“But there’s not even a convenience store, let alone a supermarket.”

“We have a car, so we can go buy things. Look how nice it is, with the ocean right in front of us and so quiet.”

“Nice, my ass. It looks totally boring.”

“Stop talking nonsense and get out of the car.”

As he was getting his luggage out of the car, the door opened.

“What? Did you call someone?”

…I was about to say, but I couldn’t continue.

Three stunningly beautiful women appeared, so beautiful that my eyes widened.

One of them had silver hair and looked like a foreigner… What is this?

“Hello, young master.”

“Young master? Hyung, you can’t be serious…”

“Say hello. They are your sisters-in-law.”

Not just sister-in-law, but “sisters-in-law”?

* *

“So your novel wasn’t fiction, it was real? This doesn’t make any sense…”

I explained it calmly so he could understand, and even showed him magic, but he couldn’t help but be surprised…

“Didn’t you say you didn’t read my novel because you didn’t like reading?”

“I didn’t read the novel, but I read the webtoon. But I never imagined that you were Kang Shin-hyeok…”

“Stop being so surprised and go unpack your things in the annex. We’ll have lunch in the yard.”

“I’ll show you to the annex.”

“Yes.”

Se-jin took Si-woo away.

To be honest, he hadn’t expected this reaction, but he wanted to show Si-woo everything and introduce him to everyone.

He had forgiven his parents and Noona, but Si-woo was the only person he could call family among his blood relatives.

“Is Master not home?”

“He’s gone fishing. By the way, Min-chan, don’t you have something to tell us?”

“Tell you something? I told you a week ago that my sister was coming.”

“Not that. I heard you two having an interesting conversation when you came.”

“That’s right. Young Master told a very cute story.”

Luciel and Eun-seo chimed in and glared at me. Could they have heard that conversation?

“No, how could you…?”

“I was in the car with Unnie and Dao.”

“Eunseo said she wanted to know more about you, so I secretly followed you. How could you have that conversation?”

Her gaze alone was enough to kill someone.

“So that’s why you wanted to meet me?”

“I’m disappointed.”

She looks like she wants to kill me. If I make one wrong move, she’ll break my bones.

Wait a minute. I didn’t ask you to introduce me to anyone, and I kept refusing even though Si-woo kept asking me to go out with you.

Si-woo didn’t know about this situation and meant well.

“That’s not true. If you were watching from behind, you would have known. I kept refusing. You guys are all I have.”

Especially Eun-seo and Se-jin gave up everything to be with me, so there’s no way I could date someone else.

“Well, you don’t know anything about us, so I guess that’s why you feel that way.”

“I’ll give you one more chance, but no more.”

Luciel glares at me, but I’m glad that this is finally settled.

“But can you undo the magic? I’ve told you everything.”

“Yes. Se-jin also said it was frustrating. You know I don’t have much time left.”

It was not easy for Luciel to come to this world.

He studied magic in advance, but finding me in countless dimensions was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Of course, we were all prepared for that, and just as we were about to set off together, the Primeval Lord of Heaven appeared.

At first, I thought it was because my Master was leaving the portal, but that wasn’t the case.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven was also unaffected by the return and helped me get to where I was without getting lost.

However, he did impose a condition that they must not disrupt the balance of this world.

Therefore, not only Luciel, but also Master’s abilities are currently limited.

Anyway, there are no portals or monsters here.

Furthermore, even with the limitations, they are not completely useless. They may not be as powerful as Kang Shin-hyuk, but they have enough money to feed four people.

“Still, three days is okay, right?”

In fact, Eun-seo and Se-jin were made to look a little older by Luciel’s magic.

As Eun-seo said, now that they have revealed all their secrets, it seems unnecessary to go to such lengths, but it is absolutely necessary.

They came here immediately after returning to the past, so Se-jin is now nineteen and Eun-seo is seventeen.

Of course, they both received all their past memories through Luciel, but that doesn’t mean their appearances changed.

In the first place, the novel ended with me leaving, so Si-woo doesn’t know their ages.

“No, Si-woo is twenty-six. He’ll think it’s weird if you change back to your original appearances.”

“Isn’t it weirder to date three girls at the same time?”

“If people find out that two of them are seventeen and nineteen, I’ll be in big trouble.”

“The police will probably arrest you.”

“Who are you going to arrest? I’ll blow up the police station…”

Luciel started talking nonsense again, so I covered his mouth with a peeled sweet potato.

“Min-chan, you’re dead!”

He spat out the sweet potato and ran away from Luciel, who was chasing him with terrifying momentum.

“They’re both just kids.”

After running for a while, he saw Si-woo and Se-jin coming out of the annex.

He was about to tell them to stop his sister-in-law, but Si-woo’s expression was quite dark.

“Why do you look like that?”

“Young master?”

“Huh? Oh… It’s nothing.”

When he saw Se-jin, he smiled awkwardly.

“It looks like Se-jin said something.”

Luciel, who was chasing after them, said, “Wait a minute. Don’t tell me…”

“I’ll help you prepare too.”

Si-woo hurriedly went to help prepare the barbecue.

“Se-jin, were you in the car too?”

“No, I got out when you parked and told you.”

Haha… Se-jin knew too.

“It seems like you kept him under close watch. He is Min-chan’s younger brother, after all.”

“Unnie, it’s not like that.”

“No, he looked like he was about to cry.”

I don’t think it was that bad.

“He knew that we were here, so I just politely asked him not to introduce any girls to me.”

“Really? You didn’t tell him not to mention girls in front of Min-chan because you didn’t want him to hide you?”

Honestly, considering Se-jin’s personality, I think Luciel is right this time…

“Are you believing what Sejin said? I’m telling you, it’s not true.”

“Yeah, you’re right. Our Sejin wouldn’t do that.”

She had her doubts, but she couldn’t be sure.

Sometimes, pretending not to know is the best way to keep peace in the family.

“Everyone, let’s go eat.”

* * *

Today was the day Shiu was going home.

He got on everyone’s nerves a little on the first day because of the introduction, but he was very sociable and easygoing, so he quickly became friends with everyone.

His Master especially liked Shiu.

They liked ramen and fishing, so they got along very well.

When we all had breakfast together and said goodbye, he seemed to be the most sad.

It was morning, so there was little traffic, and we arrived at the airport after driving on the smooth road.

“What time is your flight?”

“Don’t worry, we have plenty of time. By the way, brother.”

“Why?”

“Are you happy?”

“Don’t be silly. Of course I am. I wonder if there is anyone happier than you in this world?”

“You seem happy. Your wives are all so nice, and your Master is really cool. Oh! Your wife Se-jin seems a little scary, though.”

“Se-jin even gave you some pocket money at the end. This won’t do. Did you tell them everything?”

“Oh, brother… Please let me go.”

“I’ll let you go this once, but don’t let me catch you again.”

When Luciel uttered his trademark line, the boy smiled slightly.

He didn’t show it directly, but I think Si-woo was very worried about me.

Even I think that I was in a pretty precarious state before I met everyone.

“Hurry up and go. You can check in by yourself, right?”

“You’re not even going to see your brother off?”

“I’m going on a date with your sisters later. And it’s not like we’re saying goodbye forever. Come with Hye-seon next time.”

“Okay.”

I waved goodbye to Si-woo as he entered the airport and got back into the car.

As I started the engine to leave, I noticed something.

Se-jin was sitting in the passenger seat, and Eun-seo and Luciel were sitting in the back seat.

“Did you guys follow me?”

“I had nothing to do, and I could go on a date right away. Besides, I’m the happiest person in the world because I get to be with Min-chan.”

Luciel repeated what I had said earlier and gave me a surprise kiss on the cheek.

We often touch each other, but today, for some reason, it felt a little embarrassing.

Following Luciel, Eun-seo also kissed me on the cheek.

“Me too. I’m so happy to be with you, Oppa.”

Next is Se-jin, right?

“I’m also really happy to be with my boyfriend, but right now I’m a little unhappy.”

“Unhappy? Why?”

“Why would I be? It’s because of you. I said something a little harsh on the first day, but you’ve been nice to me since then, and you even gave me some pocket money today, but you’re still scared of me.”

…That guy Si-woo has really made an impression on her.

Next time, I should tell them to come over a little later.

“So, where are we going on our date?”

“It’s not going to be climbing Hallasan Mountain like last time, is it?”

“Why? I liked mountain climbing.”

I had a place in mind, but it wasn’t going to work.

I told them they would find out when we got there, started the car, and drove off.

“What is it?”

“Oppa?”

“Honey? We’re home. Did you forget something?”

“No.”

Our destination was home from the start.

“Then why did we come home…?”

“Today’s date location is right here in the bedroom… Ouch!”

Se-jin, who was sitting next to Luciel in the back seat, and Eun-seo, who was sitting diagonally behind me, all pinched my side.

It’s going to leave a bruise, but I can’t help but laugh.

“It’s not even lunchtime yet.”

“You’re so silly.”

“Oppa, you’re a pervert.”

Even though everyone teases me, they don’t seem to dislike me at all.

I’m so happy.

More than anyone else in the world.
