About two minutes later, Aurelion stood in a pool of blood and froze in place.

She stared at her shaking hands with wide eyes, unable to believe it.

The monster in front of her that was enough to crush her back and forth just died like that?

It was the first time she saw so much blood, and the monster was killed in such a cruel way.

But she did not feel the slightest discomfort.

Instead, there was a novelty that she had never experienced before.

Her extremely tense brain became relaxed, and she trembled all over to hide her excitement.

Refreshing!

Because she defeated a powerful enemy that she thought was completely invincible.

In the repeated failures and "deaths", Aurelion only had one thought left.

She must defeat it! Then, kill it!

It seemed that only in this way could she vent her emotions of death again and again, and it seemed that only in this way could she prove that she was not a weak vase.

Aurelion completely relaxed, she sat on the lawn regardless of her image, letting the smelly blood stain her body.

This is her trophy, the proof of her victory.

The Royal Knights stood far away, put down their weapons, and every knight's eyes were full of shock.

What did they see?

"The princess, who is only fifteen years old, killed a forest demon with her own hands!?"

The knights knew this kind of monster very well.

Because the knights were assigned to sweep the surrounding monsters around the royal capital every week to prevent the monsters from breeding rapidly and continuously and accumulating into a disaster.

The forest demon in front of them was the most headache for the knights. Every time they swept, at least a dozen knights were needed to control it steadily.

I really didn't expect that the unknown princess had such an outrageous strength?

The most important thing is that she is only fifteen years old!

The female guard also rushed forward in the shock of everyone, and hurriedly stepped forward to help the princess up.

"Princess! Are you okay!?"

In fact, when she first came in and saw the monster rushing towards the princess, she was almost scared silly.

She even thought about where she would be buried in the future.

As a result, she saw a view that made her climb from the bottom of the valley to the top of the mountain in an instant.

His Highness Aurelian actually killed the monster! ?

Having been with the princess and protecting her for so long, she naturally knew her strength.

Although her magic talent was indeed unparalleled, she could learn the spells taught by the teachers with just one glance.

But talent does not represent combat effectiveness.

Everyone in the palace knew that a princess who had never had actual combat experience would be nothing more than a vase princess in the future even if she learned magic.

But now, Aurelian slapped them in the face.

Whose vase could defeat a forest demon at the age of fifteen?

I'm afraid that Erica, who is known as the youngest genius in the capital, would find it difficult to do so.

After being helped up by the guards, Aurelian shook her head and said:

"I'm fine."

She didn't expect that her guards would find her together with the Knights.

A flame ignited out of thin air, and Victor slowly appeared in people's sight.

The female guard was furious when she saw Victor for the first time.

If it wasn't because Victor kidnapped the princess without any explanation, she would have thought about the moment when her head and body were separated.

How could she not be angry?

Victor almost killed everyone!

"Victor! You kidnapped the princess, which is a heinous crime! You dared to take the princess to such a dangerous place! You..."

Victor was unmoved, but the princess frowned first and stopped her from saying the rest.

"Celia."

"You are so rude to my teacher."

Hearing the princess's words, the guard called Celia hesitated there:

"But, Princess, he..."

Before she finished speaking, it seemed as if a repulsive force fell, forcing her to retreat uncontrollably.

Celia looked up and saw a light on Victor's fingertips.

[First-level magic: repulsion]

After doing all this, Victor nodded to the princess and praised:

"The last repulsion magic was well used."

Aurelian was very happy to receive Victor's praise.

This shows that her efforts were not in vain.

A ray of light fell, swept over the princess's clothes, and cleaned the blood on her clothes.

The corpse material on the ground was also collected by Victor.

However, the corpse was left in place by Victor, after all, it was Aurelian's trophy.

He looked at the [Demon's Heart] he had just picked up, and looked back at Aurelian.

Although it was the trophy of his student, but...Victor put the [Heart of the Demon] into his backpack and looked at Aurelian again.

"Well, today's class is over. Tomorrow, you can take a day off."

He nodded to Gwen who was coming from afar. A blue formation rose under his feet and turned into dots of light and dissipated.

Gwen watched Victor leave and waved to the Knights.

"Temporarily block the Milut Trail! No one is allowed to enter or leave!"

...

Finally, the princess returned to the palace safely under the escort of the guards, carrying her trophy, a "Forest Demon".

Emperor Aubrey was very happy and shouted in front of everyone that he wanted to reward Aurelian.

Soon, the news that Aurelian killed the Forest Demon alone spread to every noble circle in the capital.

Some nobles believed that this was a signal issued by the royal family. This little-known princess was finally going to appear as a "genius" under the preparation of the royal family.

In this way, the control of the royal family was increased.

The remaining nobles became interested in Victor's teaching.

Under the royal announcement, everyone knew that Victor had become the princess's private tutor.

However, today's course shocked them.

Asking students to kill a "Forest Demon" was actually Victor's course.

What on earth was Victor thinking?

...

Erica has been very distressed recently. Since she saw the professor yesterday and suddenly said the words "apprenticeship", she has been thinking about how to convince her father, Duke Levi.

As Victor said, she is the only heir of his father. How could he agree to let her continue to do something dangerous.

But when she thought of what Aurelion said at the dinner, she felt a little uncomfortable.

"Do you want to take my teacher away?"

"I won't let you succeed."

Erica shook her head quickly, trying to get rid of the unhappy thoughts in her mind.

There was a sound of the door opening outside, the voice of the servant.

"My Lord Duke."

It's my father who is back.

Hearing the voice of Duke Levi, Erica pushed the door open and saw that Duke Levi looked a little gloomy.

Erica suppressed the words she had just prepared.

After all, her father was in a bad mood now, and she really shouldn't talk to him about other things at this time.

But didn't her father go to the palace? Was he offended when he was in the palace?

Erica asked in confusion:

"Father, what's wrong with you?"

"It's too wrong."

Duke Levi glanced at Erica, sighed, and said:

"Victor served as the princess's teacher, but he released a large-scale teleportation magic in the palace to take the princess out of the palace."

"When the Royal Knights found the princess, the princess was facing a forest demon."

Erica covered her mouth, extremely surprised.

The forest demon, the knowledgeable Erica had naturally heard of it.

This kind of monster seems to be a lord-level monster that appears in the dense forest. It is violent and ferocious and difficult to kill.

Normally, such monsters are fought by the Knights, or killed by some passing adventurers.

The dead bodies can be taken to the capital to claim the reward.

Why would the princess... face such a thing alone?

What shocked Erica even more was what happened next. Duke Levi continued to say:

"Even if she defeated the monster, it is really wrong to let the princess take such a risk!"

Duke Levi's voice was a little angry, and this anger was naturally directed at Victor's "bold teaching".

The princess is the daughter of His Majesty, and His Majesty loves her very much.

If something really happened to Victor, how could Victor still gain a foothold in the empire?

Everything he had accumulated would collapse in an instant.

Did he really not understand this?

The Duke did not notice that Erica, who heard this, took a few steps back in shock.

What? Your Highness, the princess actually defeated that monster! ?

Alone? Alone?

She suddenly thought of what the princess said.

Surpass her and become a more talented existence than her.

At this moment, what Aurelion has done is deeply imprinted in her heart.

"... Genius?"

Duke Levi was stunned for a moment and looked at his daughter.

For some reason, Erica lowered her head at this time, making it difficult for people to see her appearance clearly.

"Erica? Honey, what's wrong with you?"

"No... nothing."

Erica sighed slightly.

At this moment, she suddenly understood something.

Following Victor's side, it seems... there will be no substantial gap between her and the princess.

Instead, it will make the princessThe distance between them was getting shorter and shorter.

Besides...

Since she knew that her father would not agree, why should she continue to make trouble?

'Erica, you should grow up. '

She said to herself.

So, Erica took a deep breath and made a request to Duke Levi:

"Father, there will be two months of vacation during the enrollment period of the academy. I want..."

Duke Levi looked at his daughter and saw that her eyes were firm, but there was a different kind of confidence in her eyes.

"I want to practice in your magician corps for a while."

Duke Levi stared at his daughter in a daze.

"The boring magic learning is destined to not let me improve too much, so I need an opportunity to practice."

"And the magician corps belongs to you, I won't make it difficult for you."

In the two-way choice between longing and understanding, Erica chose the latter.

It's not that her admiration for Victor has decreased.

On the contrary, the closer she is to Victor, the more she can feel his personality charm under his cold side.

She found that she was wrong before.

If you try to catch up with someone, you have to become his apprentice. In that case, the gap between the two will only grow larger and larger.

Erica wanted to shine and wanted everyone to look at her with new eyes.

Unfortunately, Victor's light was too bright, and everyone closed their eyes, making everyone look so dim.

She almost forgot.

The strongest genius under the age of 20 in the capital.

It can only be her.

Duke Levi's deep eyes flashed with relief, and he said slowly.

"I have an old friend far away in the north of the empire. He is a powerful wizard."

"If you can endure the severe cold in the north, then, after a while, follow my wizard army to practice there for a while."
