A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 455



454 – Lee Yeon-hwa (3)

patriot.

A word referring to a person who loves their country or is devoted to their country.

The standard for a patriot is vague, but like all standards, it requires a ‘degree’.

If your patriotism is too weak, you could become a traitor who sells out your country when the opportunity arises.

On the other hand, if patriotism is too strong, one may not see or ignore the darkness of the country and may commit more evil acts.

When you see this, you can see that opposites attract. Moderation is the key to anything.

In that sense, Lee Yeon-hwa can be said to be a true patriot. A patriot who works in the dark.

Do you know how sad it is for a country to be weak? Do you know how humiliating it is for a country to be taken away with its eyes open?

Lee Yeon-hwa knows this all too well. Her family suffered the most during the forced annexation of the Huan Empire.

Fortunately, the desperate efforts of the family kept the evil from reaching her and her younger siblings, but it is no exaggeration to say that everything was ruined.

‘To defeat an enemy for sure, you must aim for his heart.’

Lee Yeon-ju called Lee Yeon-hwa, who held a high-ranking position in the Hwan Empire, a traitor, but in reality, the opposite was true.

If Lee Yeon-ju is shaking from the outside, Lee Yeon-hwa is shaking from the inside.

Lee Yeon-hwa is also the one who is unknowingly giving information to the rebels, or rather, the independence army.

Penetrating into the heart of the enemy and revealing their most critical weaknesses.

Doctors who treat patients know people’s weaknesses better than anyone else and can use them to their advantage.

And Lee Yeon-hwa was originally a well-known physician in Joseon. With this talent, she was able to attain a high position in the Hwan Empire.

All that remains is to stab the heart. But that is something that must be done by people outside, not inside.

Even though the tip of the blade could have come towards her, Lee Yeon-hwa was able to endure it.

Because that’s what a ‘patriot’ does. To silently sacrifice for the country.

“So······you memorized all of this?”

“yes.”

“Hasn’t even been a week?”

“Just a word.”

And today, too, he was faithfully fulfilling his role as a patriot. To be exact, he was a patriot and a professor.

Hyunhwa Lee looked back and forth between Shivar and the dictionary on the desk in disbelief.

Jo Han’s encyclopedia, which he gave me as a gift so that I could memorize words whenever I had free time. It was translated into the common language.

“······You’re not lying, are you?”

“Just ask.”

“That, that would be better. Let’s see······”

Lee Yeon-hwa barely suppressed her embarrassment and opened the encyclopedia. Jo Han’s language is easy but diverse.

Especially honorifics, spacing, homonyms, words with different feelings before and after, etc.

The most difficult language for foreigners is the Korean alphabet. There are so many things that can be expressed.

“Hmm. Hmm. Remarkable?”

“Remarkable.”

“punishment.”

“Insect bee.”

“Then······ I won this match and achieved a 3-game winning streak. What does 3-game winning streak mean here?”

“It’s a winning streak.”

But even that difficult language was meaningless in front of a true genius. Lee Yeon-hwa couldn’t help but be astonished.

Who is the person in front? The Academy’s biggest interest and celebrity, Shivarda.

A wild man who survived in the Forest of Chaos, a place famous for being impossible for humans to survive, and flowed into civilization.

Most people would have looked down on them, saying that they were worse than savages and that they were nothing more than educated wild people.

‘What, what is this······’

But as time went by, the evaluation of Shivar changed rapidly. First of all, his personality.

Although they occasionally cause major accidents, they do so for ‘justifiable’ reasons.

A so-called good person who never suppresses others with overwhelming force.

That doesn’t mean he’s a pushover. It’s more like he won’t ask if you don’t ask first.

‘He’s just a genius, isn’t he? Whether it’s brute force or intellect!’

Lee Yeon-hwa was astonished to see Shivar displaying such brilliant, if not overwhelming, linguistic talent.

At first, she was interested in Shivar, but soon let him go. Their relationship was strictly that of a professor and a student, nothing more.

However, at some point, they were bound to get entangled little by little. The starting point was when the princess of the Hwan Empire, Dan Ye-rin, joined the group.

Even though Dan Ye-rin is far from the line of succession to the throne, she is still the royal family. She is someone that Lee Yeon-hwa cannot help but keep an eye on.

‘It’s such a huge lump of variables······’

In that situation, I heard unbelievable news. It was that Shivar had personally prevented the assassination threat against Dan Yerin.

The rumor is highly credible, as it is information from the escort knight who was originally dispatched to assassinate Dan Ye-rin.

I don’t know what happened to that escort knight, but he was probably purged or banished to the remote region.

Afterwards, Lee Yeon-hwa received an order from above: If possible, send her information related to Shivar.

Naturally, this information is being passed on to the Hwan Empire as well as to the secret contacts of the Cho Han side.

‘If the military power is on par with the King of Destruction or just below that… the general will win unconditionally.’

Lee Yeon-hwa stared blankly at Shivar, who was looking at her with an expression as pure as the world.

On that face, there are fierce and scary claws. If you get hit by those claws, your life is in danger.

In a situation where they were already keeping a close eye on things, the news of Tatar has spread, causing headaches for both the Huan Empire and the Federation.

The Lee Yeon-hwa caught in the middle is no different. It is a huge variable, almost like a landslide, so it is difficult.

“Well, then should I teach you the grammar now? The letters of the Chinese characters are easy, but the grammar is difficult.”

“yes.”

Lee Yeon-hwa racked her brain while teaching Shivar. How could she lead her country to independence?

To do that, Shivar’s help is absolutely necessary. The general of the Huan Empire is not an opponent that can be easily defeated.

‘You can try to catch a fish.’

Currently, Shivar is on Dan Yerin’s side. And Dan Yerin has the right to the throne.

From the Federation’s perspective, it would be best for her to sit on the throne, because of the information we have obtained before.

‘Princess Dan Ye-rin is currently evaluating the Hwan Empire in a certain state.’

The Huan Empire emerged as a superpower by forcibly annexing the Federation, but this actually had negative consequences.

It’s so bad that even after less than 10 years, adverse effects are popping up everywhere. But it’s literally at a level that’s been overcome.

If you spray the digestive agent and it reaches the digestion stage, independence will be gone forever. That must be prevented.

‘I hope Princess Dan Ye-rin doesn’t do that.’

Destroying the Huan Empire is something that cannot even be dreamed of. In the first place, the Federation’s military was forcibly disbanded by the Huan Empire.

Without the power to protect the country, that is, the military, it is unimaginable that force will clash with force.

‘I need to get closer to the Shivar students.’

Even though it pricks my conscience, I am slowly extracting information. Especially the stories related to Dan Ye-rin.

Dan Ye-rin had a very cautious personality, so she rarely came out of her room.

At best, he leaves to meet Shivar in the next room. He even sleeps late.

“······Student Shibar?”

“yes.”

“I’m curious, why do you want to learn Eastern languages?”

Lee Yeon-hwa asked a question, pretending that it was a question that came up naturally while teaching. It was the cornerstone for digging deeper.

At this, Shivar blinked and answered with a nuance that it was no big deal.

“Next experiential learning.”

“Experiential learning?”

“Yes. You go to the East then. That’s how you learn.”

“Oh, I see. Did you think you could learn it all during the vacation?”

“yes.”

Yes, I guess so. Lee Yeon-hwa nodded.

It would take a genius to learn all the languages ​​of another country in a month, but Shivar is way faster than that.

Also, as a professor, I was proud that studying was fun, but at the same time, I felt anxious.

‘If this continues, we won’t have another accident during the experiential learning, right?’

There have been a few instances of this in Tatarstan. They say they pulled out the tongues of people who swore at them.

I almost went to jail, but Tatarstan is a romantic country that exists between civilization and barbarism.

Fortunately, it was recognized as self-defense, but it was a truly terrifying experience.

“I see. Mr. Shivar, are you good at studying languages?”

“yes.”

“Why is it good?”

“It’s fun.”

“What a unique taste,” Lee Yeon-hwa thought to herself.

Afterwards, I asked various questions and obtained as much information as I could about Shivar.

Even though there were some strange words here and there, I was able to get past it.

‘I’ll have to ask about Princess Dan Ye-rin’s relationship later.’

There’s still a lot of vacation left. I need to dig into it little by little during that time.

As the tutoring ended, Shivar went out. As soon as Lee Yeon-hwa felt him moving away, she got up from her seat.

Next, she headed to the professor’s desk. Lee Yeon-hwa looked around and took out a small piece of paper.

‘The tiger has great linguistic talent. Please be careful about what you say in front of him. Never reveal confidential information.’

Lee Yeon-hwa wrote something related to Shivar and folded the paper into a note. Then she headed to the window.

As soon as I headed to the window, a pure white dove was waiting outside, cooing.

“Okay. Pass this on.”

“Crunch.”

Lee Yeon-hwa ties a note to a pigeon’s foot and sends it flying far away. She feels complicated as she watches the pigeon fly away.

‘I hope nothing happens······’

That was when.

-Ttaaak!!

From noble mtl dot com

A pigeon that had been flying well suddenly crashed. Lee Yeon-hwa’s eyes widened.

Something was clearly flying at high speed from below. She stuck her head out the window, doubting it.

As I was looking towards the direction where the pigeons were falling, I noticed a very familiar bundle of troublemakers.

“uh······”

At that moment, there was only one thing on Lee Yeon-hwa’s mind.

“Wait a minute!!!”

It’s fucked.

It was just this one word.
