A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 422
421 – Scout (3)
I received a shocking and terrifying offer from Karas, but nothing much changed.
Karas also distinguished between public and private affairs, so he ended it by asking if she received his letter and saying that he would wait for a good reply.
He was a little nervous, but I let it go since that’s the kind of guy he is. There was one letter that was more important than Karas.
“Did you all get some rest? Your tanned faces seem to have lightened up a bit.”
“Doesn’t that seem a little too much?”
Soon Marlboro came in and started the ordinance. Along with the ordinance, there was a joke that was heard somewhere.
There was a loud and small laugh at that not-so-joke joke, which lightened the mood in the classroom a little.
Marlboro seemed to have expected such a joke, and chuckled before returning to his stern professorial expression.
“As you may have experienced, there are many people in the world who have superior military skills than those who received a great education at the Academy. You probably felt it deeply.”
“··· ···”
The atmosphere in the classroom that had been relaxed by Marlboro’s words became heavy again. Words that really touched the pride of the Academy students.
But no one objected, because they realized it through this Tatar field experience learning.
He was usually looked down on as a savage, but now that he has been pounced on with great enthusiasm, he will probably want to hide in a hole.
“Huh.”
Kara was the opposite, but it was natural for her to be proud of her country’s power and potential.
It’s fortunate that Luna is doing well, if Luna hadn’t been there I would have been completely embarrassed.
‘I am what······’
I’m an abnormal among abnormals, so let’s move on. In the first place, I’m not someone who entered school through normal means.
“Starting from the second semester, the difficulty of not only classes but also practical training and exams will increase significantly. There will probably be students who fail a grade here.”
“··· ···”
“So, please approach every class with passion. Got it?”
At Marlboro’s words, the classroom was filled with shouts of “Yes!” I just nodded and that was the end of it.
Marlboro smiled, satisfied with the answer. From now on, the students will also work hard in class.
“And I ask you not to bother Student Shivar. Tampering is against the Academy’s regulations and can cause serious harm to the authorities, so be careful.”
“··· ···”
Finally, Marlboro ended his speech by mentioning me. Tampering is a word commonly used in sports.
It means that students should not act as bridges. I understand that the disciplinary level is quite high.
‘Even if the outside world doesn’t know, students have to live by seeing each other’s faces.’
What is the most effective thing for hot-blooded youth? It’s embarrassing for me to say this, but it’s socializing with the opposite s*x.
There are many cases where they are lured by the so-called beauty trap, and because of this, their lives, not just their academy life, become tangled up.
There are particularly severe cases, where a man or woman is raped and forced to have a child.
‘If I can’t have it, I’d rather break it. That’s the feeling.’
Rather than having talent enter a potential enemy country, let’s just destroy it. It may sound crazy, but it works.
Moreover, the awareness of human rights is somewhat weak in this day and age. That is why all kinds of crimes are occurring.
The fact that Marlboro, which is supposed to remain politically neutral, is emphasizing this means that it is already under pressure.
“Please make a wise choice. Today’s ordinance ends here.”
The ordinance was over. After the ordinance was over, a little while later, another professor, Lee Yeon-hwa, came in.
Most of Lee Yeon-hwa’s classes are related to first aid and medicine. But today feels different.
‘You keep looking this way.’
I pretended not to notice, but sometimes he would look at me.
I’m trying my best to control it, but I can’t avoid your eyes. Does he know it?
‘It must be because of the letter from the Hwan Empire.’
It is not an ordinary letter, but a letter written on a high-quality scroll. However, it is questionable whether the rumor has already reached the professors’ ears.
Maybe this letter was given to me by Lee Yeon-hwa. I even had such reasonable doubts.
Externally, Lee Yeon-hwa was acting as a lackey for the Hwan Empire. This is only an external story.
‘More than that······’
I glanced to the side while class was in progress. Lee Yeon-ju was sitting far away.
She was supposed to always sit next to Grace, but recently she’s been alone more often.
It’s more than just being alone. It’s like my very presence has faded. It’s been a while since I’ve had a conversation.
‘It wasn’t to this extent.’
Maybe it’s because most of the first-year students are from the East.
I’m probably talking more with my juniors than my classmates. I’m sure we’ll connect soon.
I looked at Lee Yeon-ju’s profile and then focused my gaze in front of her. If I listen carefully in class, I won’t be suspected.
“There are various vital points in humans. In particular, the carotid artery, where a lot of blood flows······”
The class itself went without any major problems. The other classes were the same.
There was nothing special about the afternoon classes either. Today was just an ordinary day.
But the real thing still remains.
“I said this morning, but I hope you’ll reply quickly.”
“Go away.”
A letter from the Empire of Hwan, not Karas who left such words. I plan to read that as soon as I arrive at my accommodations.
Grace was also curious about the contents of the letter, so she read it with me.
“uh······”
“Hmm······”
And as soon as we read the letter, both Grace and I were dumbfounded.
It’s not like I’m speaking informally or anything. The content of the letter isn’t in the Huan language either.
“Mr. Shivar.”
“huh.”
“Do you know what this means?”
“Resolve.”
“Why did you use this word?”
The words were just too difficult. It felt like they had made some easy words difficult.
Just because it’s a common language doesn’t mean all words are limited to one. For example, you can write ‘see’ as ‘witness’.
Suddenly, I remembered Godin’s class in the first semester of the first year. Numerous words that simply meant ‘see’.
From noble mtl dot com
‘That’s a characteristic of the Hwan Empire.’
There is a characteristic of the language of the Huan Empire. Each character contains its own meaning. It is similar to Chinese characters.
This is the disaster that happened when they tried to write them in another language. Especially since the people who wrote them were high-ranking officials.
As it is a high-ranking position, I will use difficult words, and as I copied those difficult words as they were, a college entrance exam-level letter naturally emerged.
‘But it’s fortunate that it’s not to the point where I can’t recognize it at all.’
The content of the letter was not much different from Karas’.
Humility that lifts me up while lowering myself. From presenting a vision to giving advice on growth.
It’s an excellent proposal, except for the difficult words. Unlike Karas, it’s not a letterhead, but a scroll.
“As expected, even the Empire of Huan holds Shivar in high esteem. So, what are you going to do?”
“Don’t go.”
Why am I going there? It’s a place where a rebellion will break out at any moment.
I will respond, but I will politely decline your offer.
Instead, we should buy time to avoid the kind of retaliation that is characteristic of the Huan Empire.
Rather than outright rejecting the offer, say you’ll decide after graduating from the academy.
In the meantime, a rebellion will break out and the regime will change, so this is the best option for me.
‘I guess I should send it in the Hwan Empire language just in case.’
The Huan Empire has conquered the East. As such, it has a very strong sense of pride.
If you reply in the common language for no reason, you never know what those idiots might do.
So I plan to reply in the language of the Huan Empire to show my respect. I will need the help of the princess who lives right next door.
‘Come to think of it, aren’t you coming for dinner today?’
I turned my head toward the door. Usually, at this time of year, there would be a knock and a question about whether I was inside.
I think he probably has his own worries, so I think I should put Grace to sleep and go see her.
“Mr. Shivar. What’s for dinner tonight?”
“Galbijjim.”
“Galbijjim? What is that?”
“Oriental cuisine. I’d like to try it. Want to try it?”
“yes!”
First, I have to prepare Grace’s meal. Since the galbijjim is a dish that needs to be prepared in advance, I prepared it right away.
“Hey, you little punk. Can you cut this for me?”
“Bam.”
With the cute and dependable assistant, Nuburi, I was able to shorten the time.
How can someone be so obedient? At least he’s definitely more capable than Porori.
‘It’s much better than a guy who can’t even straighten his thumb. Yeah.’
Finally, all preparations were complete, including making the seasoning sauce for the braised ribs.
Now all that’s left to do is wait. I sat on the sofa while the cooking was finished.
As I sat down on the sofa, Grace sat next to me. She then naturally showed her affection by making physical contact with me.
“Mr. Shivar.”
“huh.”
“Don’t you feel like it’s annoying?”
Grace asked in a slightly lowered voice. I turned my head to look at her at the question.
He was smiling, but it was more like a bitter smile. Even his usually sharp expression had become much duller.
“why?”
“Sometimes I wonder if you’re bothering me too… That’s what I think.”
“not really?”
“··· ···”
Grace looked at me at my honest answer. All the bitter smile had disappeared.
Instead, what took its place was absurdity. I tilted my head, wondering if I had spoken too brazenly.
“Oh, really? Really?”
“huh.”
“Don’t you usually worry or anything like that?”
“I guess I’m not ordinary.”
“··· ···”
Grace was at a loss for words again. Her purple eyes stared straight at me for a moment.
It’s not a lie, it’s true. At least she didn’t bother me.
On the contrary, I feel sorry. I think you know why without me having to explain it to you.
“Phew······ Hehehehe.”
Then she snorted and then let out a breathy laugh.
“What is that stupid answer? That’s why I like it more.”
“I’m glad you liked it.”
“That’s why I’m even more anxious. I’m worried that Mr. Shivar might have bad intentions and fall into some strange temptation.”
“··· ···”
“Even so, I will understand. Mr. Shivar is not lacking in morals, but rather in culture.”
Well, if you say so, I have nothing to say.
“You came. My dear.”
“huh.”
“Could you show me the letter?”
My moral compass has been broken for a long time because of Dan Ye-rin.
‘Sorry, Grace.’
I had no choice but to apologize inwardly.
