chapter 8
009. Entrance Ceremony
From that day on, Sylvia was able to teach her swordsmanship.
The lesson took place in a remote northern forest.
And now, we were facing each other holding wooden swords.
“Come on, Ethan. Do you know what your biggest problem is?”
“The biggest problem?”
how do i know that
I don’t even know myself as Ethan.
My stomach was boiling.
“You’re looking at me like that again. For a prosecutor, anger is a double-edged sword.”
“… … ah.”
My stomach turns when I think of the young writer who sent me into this world.
It was that kid who was wrong.
why am i rolling here
“… Anger wears down even one’s own soul.”
I’m at a loss for words.
It seemed that Hyeonta would come like this.
What else is this master talking about?
I knew that he was originally like that.
What should I say?
okay.
Silvia was a very ideal figure as a knight. as a knight.
However, how tired were the officers in the military if they were true soldiers?
That’s just how I feel.
It’s like meeting a true soldier teacher.
It seemed that I had taken the wrong route.
Why is Giyeon that I want to eat so hard to eat?
“Ethan!”
I was awakened by the sudden shout.
“Leave your anger! At least when you wield your sword, you should throw away your anger. Emotions should not be carried on the sword.”
this ambassador… .
i’ve seen it somewhere
Yes, that was the line Sylvia said when she was teaching Lorenz.
At that time, Lorenz was defeated by Arthur and had anger deep in his heart. And after being pointed out by Sylvia one after another, he is excommunicated as a disciple.
And Lorenz dropped out of the academy.
It’s all because of Arthur’s status window ability.
However.
At least I can never be excommunicated.
“I will.”
“good night. give me a full moon Fix all the habits you have in it. If not, I will kick you out of the academy.”
It was a calm tone, but the content was bloody.
It was, so to speak, a time limit.
“If you don’t like it, go back to the dormitory right now.”
It’s only fortnight?
How many times have I run on the playground every day to get this opportunity?
And even the fallen villain Lorenz became Silvia’s disciple.
Compared to that, I might be a good soldier.
“All right. Teach me.”
“good night. Call me Master from now on.”
“Yes, Master.”
Only then could he receive Sylvia’s teaching.
What followed was posture correction.
According to Sylvia, there were many unnecessary postures for me. If I wasn’t conscious of each one, a habit that I didn’t even know would come out.
“again!”
Every time that happened, the hawk of love flew.
f*ck!
At first, he reflexively blocked the attack.
My survival instinct kicked in.
“Stop… ?”
“I’m sorry.”
After blocking, the stick flew in again.
in an unpredictable direction. So, I couldn’t stop it.
baek!
I was hit on the top of my head and staggered.
Sylvia hit her shoulder with a wooden stick.
She called the stick she was holding a ‘falcon of love’.
The wooden sticks he had roughly obtained from the northern forest were as hard as iron swords.
It is certainly.
This woman enjoys beating me.
Even though he tries to remain expressionless, the corners of his mouth are raised.
this crazy
That my teacher was a sadist.
“Are you angry?”
“no.”
“It’s all tricks to teach you patience. How long are you going to stay in alley fights and dog fights? again!”
I corrected my posture again after hearing Sylvia’s teachings.
Even then, I got hit a few more times.
Head, shoulders, knees, toes, knees, toes… .
It’s so right that I wonder if I’m going to become an idiot if I do this… .
And the day of the entrance ceremony came.
Hero Academy, Nadia.
It is a training center that raises warriors to protect the continent from the 72 demons and 7 demon lords.
In addition, the year Arthur entered school, for some reason, the number of naturally occurring patterns became twice as large as usual.
Rumors circulated in the world that the reason why there are many people with naturally occurring patterns was that a large-scale anti-demon war and subjugation of the demon king would occur.
And now I am participating in the entrance ceremony.
It was boring.
Why in the world do principals take so long to train?
to… So, so, finally.
When I hit this three-step combo, I feel like my stamina and mental strength are being cut into chunks.
The class I belong to is 1st grade class 1.
It was called the strongest and worst class in a total of five classes in the first year.
The reason why it was called the strongest is simple.
Because there are many strong people in this class.
Why? Guess I’ll have to ask the damn author.
On the contrary, it is also called the worst for the same reason.
All kinds of talents are gathered. This meant that it was difficult to get grades in class.
It’s the worst to bring a lot of frustration to freshmen.
That would be too… .
It was because the blonde boy in the front was different.
Arthur Pendragon.
A boy with a good and righteous personality.
In the future, a living legend who pulls out Excalibur.
Behind him stands a man with curly, shoulder-length brown hair. With his stocky physique and tall stature, the name of the one who can feel the skill of a hero is,
Reus.
His real name is Achilles.
That Achilles of Greek mythology is right.
Being a reincarnated person is the setting.
In the future, a hero who will rise to the position of the 2nd river.
A longtime friend of Arthur Pendragon.
A jealous senior entrant.
And, a mischievous-looking brown-haired boy yawning near Reus.
Sony.
He always smiles with a pervasive smile, but his true intentions are unknown. He is good at speed and daggers. His true identity is Son Goku from Journey to the West. Strictly speaking, he is the reincarnation of Son Goku.
Arthur, Achilles, and Son Goku. These three don’t really go well together, but the faculty called them the male trio of class 1.
And the female trio… .
Seeing what I couldn’t see right in front of me, I felt like I was standing in the back ranks.
Tesha hid that she was the princess and entered the academy.
The daughter of the Logness family, Sepia.
And even the barbarian Anya Kargon.
Really prominent figures, all the figures were gathered.
Later, when I saw that 7 out of 10 academy graduates were from this class, I said it all.
It was the entrance ceremony, but it was already difficult to drop out.
by the way.
It took a long time for the rector’s training to be over. I’m about to yawn from boredom.
“So, you are candidates to become warriors. After graduation, I hope you do your best to subdue the demons. More than.”
finally!
The one-day speech was over, talking about graduation to candidates whose graduation has not yet been confirmed.
“Those who do not yet have a pattern, please gather here!”
Before the dissolution, the administrators called the newly admitted students.
It was a procedure to engrave patterns on those without patterns.
Freshmen, including Reus, moved on to the call.
“Come here, carve a pattern and go.”
I followed that line and stood in line.
Soon it was my turn.
The pattern of a candidate for the warrior was engraved on my right hand.
Color is orange.
It was different from the naturally occurring red color. Surprisingly, this pattern has an on-off function, so you can hide it if you don’t want to.
“Skill window.”
As I murmured, a window popped up where I could check my skill status.
——— Skill window
Swordsmanship (Lv4) Elemental magic (Lv3)
Mana management (Lv3) Physical resistance (Lv2)
· Cold resistance (Max) · Cold tolerance (Max)
·Fire resistance (Max)
—————————————————-
This shabby state is my current skill state.
In the meantime, the cold and fire resistance levels were maxed out.
This is probably because it ate the core of winter.
Should I say I’m lucky?
There were guys checking the skills here and there in the auditorium. Of course, I couldn’t see their skill window.
However, watching him stand still and manipulate something, the skill window seemed clear.
I turned off the skill window and turned around.
It was then that Sepia and I met eyes.
Sepia, arms crossed, was looking at me.
He only slightly lowered his head.
And he tried to pass her by.
“stop.”
As he said, he stopped.
Like Pavlov’s bastard, my body reacted.
It seemed that if I made a mistake here, I would be hit with telekinesis.
“Boo, did you call? miss?”
“Follow.”
Leaving those words behind, Sepia left the auditorium first.
The place where Sepia arrived was the quiet empty lot of the academy.
I’m angry.
It was written that way on his face.
“Where have you been?”
“… … ”
“Answer me. Where did you stay at the academy early?”
I rolled the duckbill hard.
I rode a f*cking high mountain range to get a chance.
You can’t say that, can you?
“I have been to Herbeiaban for a while.”
“Why did you go there?”
hometown? call it home
But what if Ethan’s hometown is somewhere else?
Why is the difficulty level of the question so high?
“I traveled for a while to clear my mind.”
“under-! Travel? A short trip?”
Sepia let out a short sigh.
He seems to be contemplating whether to believe me or not.
“Yes, I don’t think I will have time during the semester.”
“Why did you come and go without my permission?”
That’s because I thought you wouldn’t allow it.
Even if he was scolded, it was because of the judgment that he would eat a chance and get scolded.
In the first place, I was living well in the 21st century and suddenly became a servant.
My stomach is still boiling.
“Are you a servant of the Logness family? know?”
“Yes… . I am well aware of it.”
“And he is my escort swordsman and servant.”
To be honest, Sepia didn’t even need my escort.
Why did you use someone like Ethan as your escort swordsman while leaving the stronger guys alone?
There is a past between you and this Ethan.
I was madly curious. I wanted to know.
But it was impossible to ask that outright.
“Answer me. Ethan.”
“sorry. I was entrusted with escorting you.”
“But you leave me alone at this academy and go on a trip? Are you crazy?”
“no.”
It feels like being harassed by an army senior.
It looks like I’ll be able to get a cut right now.
puck.
The sad premonition never went wrong.
I felt like I was about to burst into tears.
But the pain was tolerable.
It’s all thanks to the skill called physical resistance.
“hurt?”
“… … ”
“Yeah, it hurts. Because you hit me because it hurts.”
I clenched my molars.
I wanted to give the young lady a round of applause when she tried to look okay.
“When you said you were taking a break… , did I ever tell you not to do that?”
how do i know that
But I just have to recite a set answer.
“There is not.”
“Did I ever take your paycheck?”
“There is not.”
“By the way… , Why are you disappointing me?”
Sepia’s clenched hands trembled.
At that time, Anya was approaching me, saying hello.
“You should first ask how I am and ask if you need anything.”
“sorry.”
“Do I really have to say this with my mouth?”
“no.”
Of course then.
Over Sepia’s shoulder, her eyes met Anya’s.
“Ethan, look at me. look at me really get out where so… .”
“Hey, Ethan!”
As expected, Anya, who smiled single-single, didn’t notice.
It’s best to just pretend not to know.
He strode over and stood beside Sepia.
“And sepia! What are you doing here?”
what are you doing I was being harassed.
By the way, did the two even make a statement?
Sepia twitched and glared at Anya.
It seemed like a cat party would be fun right away.
“We were having a little talk.”
Anya tilted her head.
“What were you talking about?”
“ha… . Anya, this is me and Ethan’s business.”
Sepia sighed.
And, without hiding his hostility, he muttered lowly.
“Then don’t interfere.”
In an instant, the mood fell.
