A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 421
420 – Scout (2)
A pile of letters in front of the accommodation. I don’t know when these letters were left behind.
Every night, when I put Grace to bed, I enjoy a secret meeting with Dan Ye-rin, but not a secret meeting.
Therefore, it is more likely that these letters were left at dawn or early in the morning, rather than at night.

I don’t know what the letter was, but I took it anyway. Grace seemed curious about it too.
“Is that a love letter?”
“··· ···”
Luna’s question after seeing the pile of letters on the desk. How can she only get such answers when she asks questions?
At this point, I’m starting to doubt if it’s talent or if he’s just acting like that because he really doesn’t know.
“Ms. Luna. You don’t think all letters are love letters, do you? Anyone can see that they’re scout offers.”
“Isn’t that a love letter?”
“··· ···”
It was just a lack of common sense. Well, since he was a country person, it wasn’t strange for him to accept strange common sense.
But since Kara didn’t even know about the love letter itself, she just kept her mouth shut, saying that if she stayed still, it would be halfway there.
Kara picked up one of the love letters, no, letters, and said with a sly smile.
“Our Shivar is popular. Surely he won’t follow me if I give him food?”
“Umm······What if I give you something delicious?”
“hey.”
Kara laughed as if she found my answer ridiculous. It seemed like she thought I was joking.
Actually, it’s half a joke and half a serious story. I’m willing to listen if they give me something tasty.
Just up to there. I’ll just listen and make the choice after graduating from the academy.
‘Shall we read it?’
There was still some time left in class, so I decided to read the letter slowly. I should just read it as soon as I picked it up.
The first letter I picked up was a letter with my name written in gold. I was already looking forward to it.
Before that, I looked around. Other people seemed curious as well, as they were all huddled together.
Isn’t this something that other people shouldn’t see? Grace said as I gave her that look.
“Mr. Shivar is naive. It is also important to check what intentions are contained in the letter and whether there are any hurtful remarks.”
“Grace, you’re right. Sometimes your personality shines through in your letters.”
“I’m just curious.”
Yes. Rather, Luna, you are the most pure.
Since I had no intention of hiding it, I opened the letter without hesitation.
[Hello. I am Count Wagner of the Matra Empire. Your name is······]
“Throw it away.”
“Throw it away.”
As soon as I read the first line of the letter, I heard voices on both sides telling me to throw it away.
It was a bit strange because it wasn’t just one person but two people doing it at the same time.
“The way you speak is disappointing. You speak as if you are superior to others.”
“You’re thinking the same thing as me. You’re giving me a chance when I can’t even take you? Is that what you’re saying, Fart?”
Is that so? I’m not sure. But since you told me to throw it away, I should throw it away.
After a while, I read the other letters one by one and threw away the ones I didn’t want to throw away. Most of them were disappointing from the very beginning, even in the way they spoke.
“This guy got the name wrong. What’s Shibaru?”
“You are provoking Mr. Shivar with words that hurt his pride. Please pass on this too.”
“Shivar. This guy is offering delicious food. Are you going?”
“Oh. Where?”
“hey.”
As I went through the letters one by one, I realized there wasn’t much left.
I gave the letters that were worth considering to Grace, and the ones that weren’t to Kara.
I’m not throwing it away. At least I should remember its name so that I can deal with it appropriately when it comes to me in person later.
Just because I’m a noble doesn’t mean I don’t have some idiots with strong pride. Especially since I’m a ‘wild man’ who came over from the Forest of Chaos.
This means that there may be people who approach him complacently, thinking, “He’s a good guy, just by looking at him.”
‘Life is so hard.’
I don’t know about anything else, but it’s really hard to remember names. Especially when they’re extras.
If it was a named character who was an episode villain, it would be understandable, but it would be quite a headache to get involved in such a trivial matter.
“This is… Huh? It’s from the Hwan Empire? And it’s a letter from the crown prince.”
“The prince of the Hwan Empire? Is that true?”
But voila. I actually got a letter from Named. Surprisingly, it wasn’t a letter, but a scroll of correspondence.
Furthermore, it is a letter from not just an ordinary family, but the imperial family of the Huan Empire. This is something that cannot be easily overlooked.
“Yes. By the way, it’s strange. If it’s the imperial family of the Hwan Empire······”
Grace stopped talking and looked ahead. I turned my head to follow her gaze.
When I turned my head, Dan Ye-rin was sitting there. She was looking at me from behind, as if she didn’t care at all.
Perhaps Grace’s nuance is closer to that of whether it would have been better if Dan Ye-rin had made the offer herself. In fact, that would have been better.
“I think it would be better to read this when you get back to your accommodations.”
“Um······I guess so?”
This is a proposal sent directly by the Supreme Being, not by a family of a country. If the information is leaked, it will be problematic in many ways.
But rumors will spread as they go. Aren’t the classrooms still buzzing?
‘This is an issue that needs to be told to Dan Ye-rin and Lee Yeon-ju as well.’
Above all, it is an important letter to the two main characters of the next episode.
I unrolled the scroll and placed it in front of me. It was a letter that might be the most important, so I intended to take care of it myself.
When I had almost finished sorting the letters, one letter appeared that had frozen solid, including me.
[From your friend, Karas.]
“··· ···”
“··· ···”
“··· ···”
As expected, this guy is definitely crazy. I looked at the letter with a trembling expression.
The letter itself was plain, except for a little extravagance. However, the sender’s name was unusual.
Beyond the ordinary, he even chewed up the prince of the Hwan Empire just by his name. How could he think like that?
“······Shall I read it?”
“Shouldn’t I······ read it?”
“Let me read it. I wonder what it says.”
Karas’ strength is psychology. He is good at using the psychology of his opponents and making them move the way he wants.
He’s really an amazing guy. I sighed and opened the letter.
Soon, with everyone’s attention focused on it, I looked at the contents.
Even if I was close to someone, if they treated me poorly, I would throw them away immediately······
[First of all, I would like to thank you for receiving this letter.]
He was surprisingly normal and very polite. This was where I received my first shock.
Given Karas’ personality, I thought he would treat her poorly because they were close, but it was the opposite. He clearly separated his work and private life.
I read it carefully, leaving behind the shocking greeting in many ways, in order to find even the slightest loophole.
But the more I read, the more shocked, horrified, and, above all, creeped out I became.
[As a student at the Academy, I am well aware of your reputation.]
The politeness that lifts me up.
[The fierce battle with the King of Tatar never left my mind. I have always been interested in your military power, but this incident has made me realize that my vision was lacking.]
On the contrary, humility is the ability to lower oneself.
[Your abilities were not limited to just brute force. Beyond the ability to interpret the languages of all nations, you also displayed a talent for languages themselves. I would like to utilize this talent more.]
A reflection and vision on language skills as well as force.
[I don’t think you lack culture. What you lack is the opportunity to learn, and culture can be acquired through learning.]
Advice on growth while covering my shortcomings appropriately.
[There are many people who commit the foolish act of burying their heavenly talents in the ground because they are of humble origin. I will not commit such a foolish act.]
Self-confidence.
[If you have seen this letter, please respond. From your dear friend Karas.]
Finally, the ending where they reveal their friendship. That’s a rough summary.
I couldn’t help but be dumbfounded when I read all this. It was a truly perfect letter, without any flaws.
If anyone reads this letter, they’ll think, “Oh, this person wants me so badly. Can’t I just listen to them for once?”
“Uh… At this point, I guess I should at least talk to you out of sincerity? Do you think so too, Grace?”
“Yes, yes. Even before you became the crown prince, it was such a wonderful offer… As a civilized person, it was a letter I could not pass up.”
Other people were also bewildered, but had the same opinion. I think we should at least talk about it.
If you don’t share, it’s not ‘courtesy’ to people. The moment you ignore this, it’s the same as saying you’re going to be hostile.
If that doesn’t work, at least send a reply. Be polite so that the other person doesn’t get hurt.
‘Isn’t this guy totally crazy?’
As someone who knows Karas better than anyone else, I couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
It felt like I was hit with a bullet that wasn’t a bullet. I never dreamed that they would screw me over like this.
“Anyone who looks at this will tell you that it’s a love letter?”
“··· ···”
I laughed out loud at Luna’s words. I couldn’t think of anything to refute.
I was in a difficult situation, but I figured out a way to use it to my advantage. I guess Karas also considered this.
“Grace.”
“yes?”
“I want to write a reply. Anything except the Hwan Empire.”
I haven’t read the letter from the Huan Empire yet. I felt like I shouldn’t read it here.
Then why did you read Karas’ letter? I read it because I had no choice. How could you bear that?
“Um… That doesn’t matter, but someone might come looking for you. Is that okay?”
“huh.”
I waved the letter in my hand. It was a letter written by Karasu.
“I’m going to use this.”
“?”
Grace tilted her head. I snickered at her.
My plan is roughly this: If the person comes to see me, I will show him this letter.
What this means is that the crown prince of the empire has made such an ‘earnest’ request, so what can you do?
It would also be sufficient to convey the nuance that I had no choice but to refuse.
‘This guy is truly crazy.’
I was starting to feel a little bit of respect for him.
