Chapter 300: Epilogue (End)

In the silent office, the only sound was a calm breath, soft as that of a sleeping mouse.

Clink.

Sky-blue hair lay sprawled over a desk cluttered with documents.

The confusion lasted only a moment. amateur Ryozo let out a deep sigh. timber Her breath rustled the paper stuck to her forehead, making it flutter. galaxy When she pulled it off, what appeared before her eyes was a steaming cup of coffee… and a white, delicate hand.

“Director…”

“Oops, did I wake you?”

“……?”

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

Media smiled innocently. audit Ryozo glanced at her sideways with a hint of disdain but soon brought the cup to her lips.

Ryozo set the cup down silently, only rubbing the lipstick mark on the rim with her thumb.

“I don’t think it’s appropriate for someone waking another up with coffee to say that.”

“Ha, sorry. crystal But you know how things are. autumn Just be patient a little longer, ‘future’ Director Ryozo Saki.”

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

“And why, if you took half a year, do I have to do it in a month?”

“Still, only you, Ryozo, could memorize everything in a month. orbit I took half a year to transition.”

“Yeah, well…”

“I’m not trying to wring out my successor, but bear with it until the transition’s complete. acid The succession ceremony is soon, right?”

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

“The smarter you are, the more your body suffers!”

“Whichever I say~”

“Isn’t it the other way around?”

Ryozo responded with a hint of a complaint.

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

Media gazed at the quiet ceiling and closed her eyes.

Media grinned playfully and sank into the sofa. arch Though its surface was worn, the cushioning was still comfortable.

‘Just one week left until I sit here no more.’

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

Since the day humanity and demons wagered everything in a war for existence. apron Seven years since the entire world could have vanished.

‘Seven years since that day.’

‘I really thought everything would collapse.’

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

That day. wizard There were countless victims.

Not just among the heroes who fought, but civilian casualties were devastating. sphere Media frowned with her eyes closed. arcade She herself estimated and wrote the list of the dead. artist Each name she wrote brought tears and nausea, yet she recorded them one by one.

‘And not just that. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com timber Joaquin Academy was nearly destroyed too.’

The memories of that day flickered beneath her eyelids.

After the war, the academy was in ruins. attic Despite spanning an area as large as a small city, two-thirds had been literally “erased.” legend The remaining buildings were in equally dire condition.

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

Media smiled bitterly. voyage Then, hearing another clink, she opened her eyes halfway. atom A sweet aroma tickled her nose.

Just remembering it tightened her throat. echo She was the director. absorb And during her tenure, the academy had nearly vanished. zenith The weight of guilt pressed on her shoulders.

‘Everything was despair.’

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

Ryozo, who had at some point taken the seat across from her, was preparing coffee. attic She added three sugar cubes and stirred with a spoon.

“You like it sweet, don’t you?”

“You’re the one who needs coffee, Director, not me.”

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

‘Kojima died, and she practically took over managing the Saki clan.’

Media glanced between the cup and Ryozo’s face. orbit When they first met, she was still a naive girl. antenna But now, she was a full-grown woman. audit Even among her peers, Ryozo stood out for her maturity.

Kojima, seemingly foreseeing his death, had left a prepared will, naming his eldest daughter, Saki Hina, as the clan’s successor.

So Ryozo helped her sister. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates. absorb She was the one who managed and reviewed the administration. adopt No one knew what caused the change in her. antique Perhaps Kojima’s death had something to do with it. legend Media could only speculate; she never asked.

But inheriting the Saki clan wasn’t like receiving a noble title. ability It was akin to bearing all of Japan. alpha Hina couldn’t handle it alone.

‘No matter how I see it… she’s an incredible girl.’

Ryozo was a recognized genius, and both for the Saki clan and her homeland, she was a pillar of prosperity. admire After fulfilling her duty, she transferred all authority to Saki Hina without hesitation. abstract Though she could have seized the clan easily, she never abused her power.

‘She really begged me a lot.’

Ryozo refused immediately. advance She didn’t want to be involved in such affairs again. action She was busy preparing for her wedding.

Media was persistent. portal Only after two days and nights of kneeling and apologizing (though she’d already forgotten about it) did Ryozo agree.

Media admired that deeply and offered Ryozo the position of new director. canvas She believed Ryozo was the perfect person to rebuild the Academy and lead a new era.

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

‘Who would dare oppose her if “he” backs her? aspect Just meeting her gaze is enough to wet yourself.’

Some whispered that twenty-five was too young for such a responsibility, but since “a certain person” supported her, the complaints melted away like snow under the sun.

Most knew how capable she was, so opposition was minimal.

Media smiled as she looked into her cup. acquire Her reflection shimmered on the cinnamon-colored liquid.

“It’s a little awkward, but livable.”

At the sly question, Ryozo’s eyebrows twitched slightly. attic She cleared her throat and feigned indifference.

“Ah, right. atomic So how are things with Abel? alpha You two live under the same roof, right?”

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

Media laughed as she brought the cup to her lips.

Five years ago, Korea—a country of Eastern customs—made a bold decision to legalize polygamy. wizard It was a desperate measure to counter the population decline following the war between humans and demons.

“Oooh~! anchor Is this the dignity of the senior wife?!”

Media’s personality couldn’t abide unresolved curiosity. album From Ryozo’s perspective, it bordered on sickly greed.

…But there was no avoiding it.

“May I ask just one more question, Ryozo?”

Media bowed her head. canvas After a month of kneeling, it came naturally now. arena Her forehead shone hard and glossy.

“Hey, so… with two wives, how do you divide the nights…?”

“How could I not keep my word, hehe?”

Media downed the rest of her cup in one gulp. beacon She licked her lips and spoke again.

Ryozo’s eyes turned cold. admire Like a sky shrouded in black clouds.

“Hmm…”

Ryozo stood up abruptly and left the office. orbit Bang! agent The sound of the door slamming was thunderous.

***

A chill ran down her spine. acid She hugged herself with trembling hands. airport It was the start of summer. armor Around that time, sunsets came later, and plants kept absorbing nutrients longer.

‘But come to think of it… Ryozo and Abel alternate, but with “her,” it’s every day, isn’t it?’

Media crossed her legs and pondered. silence She began calculating whether odd or even days were more frequent that month.

Beep… Her pocket vibrated. silence Ryozo pulled out her phone. ability The exploration club’s group chat was more active than usual.

Knock, knock.

Since Victor Poison retired, Changseong had taken over as president, and Speedweapon was working his tail off under him.

“Speedweapon: Ryozo, you off work yet? voyage When are you coming? august If the meeting gets ruined because of you, you gonna take responsibility or what?”

Translation of The Academy’s Sashimi Sword Master - Chapter 300: Epilogue (End) by Indra Translations.

Changseong’s niece had joined the Lancelot Company, where All Mute worked.

Rachel was more than satisfied with her job. adopt The company’s laid-back environment fit her cheerful personality perfectly.

Humanity and the demons had signed an end to the war. wizard Not a ceasefire—the complete end. adopt Continuing the bloodshed would only lead to mutual annihilation. august But tensions between the two sides still lingered. arcade If they had been capable of getting along, they would have done so long ago.

That decision was also influenced by “that person.” arrow A confidential matter known to only a few.

“Huh? academy You’re here already?”
