A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 482



Overwhelming Power (2)

I unknowingly wentssiping in the language of the Huan Empire, but fortunately, it seems that Danjucheon did not hear.

Or maybe he just pretended not to know even though he heard it. He just seemed to notice it for no reason.

I know I asked out of curiosity, but it’s wrong to make fun of someone’s body.

Especially in the East, it would sound even more insulting. It would be better to say, “Your parents are odd!”

I used to secretly scold civilized people for being rude, but now I feel bad because I made fun of someone else’s body.

‘Should I at least apologize?’

I looked at Dan Ju-cheon, who was leading the way, and then quietly approached him. Dan Ye-rin was flustered behind me, but she waved that it was okay.

Soon, I stood next to Danjucheon and glanced at his face. He probably didn’t know I was coming either, as his eyes widened considerably.

“Oh my gosh!!! This is surprising!!”

“··· ···”

“Hmm. Hmm.”

Did I approach too quietly? Danjucheon let out a truly human scream, without any dignity or shame or anything.

I tried to calm him down by quickly assessing the situation, but it was already too late. I had already seen his human side.

I almost laughed, but I barely held it back. All I had to do was apologize.

“What, what is it? What’s going on?”

“Did you hear that earlier?”

“What are you talking about? Is that what you guys were whispering about?”

“Didn’t you hear?”

“I didn’t hear that.”

That’s fortunate. I worried for nothing.

I let out a sigh of relief inside, but then said something else.

I just realized. Instead of gossiping like that······

“Then I’ll ask you now. Is that okay?”

“what?”

“You seem a little short······ You seem to be shorter than Dan Ye-rin.”

Let’s confidently ask questions we’re curious about. You might say that this is rude, but it is.

If you ask why I am being so rude, the reason is simple. He is my enemy and Dan Ye-rin’s enemy.

Considering the evil deeds Dan Ju-cheon has committed so far, especially the pressure he has put on Dan Ye-rin, this is nothing more than a slight overkill.

So, I think it’s okay to be a bit sweary. Rather than being a bit sweary, I’d say it’s more like openly cursing.

“······Why do you ask such a question?”

Danjucheon also accepted it coldly without showing any sign of panic. He also showed a look of displeasure.

It seems like she has a complex because she makes that kind of expression so openly. After all, most men are sensitive about their height.

Moreover, he is shorter than Dan Ye-rin, whom he had crushed so hard. It is possible that he may harbor even a slight inferiority complex.

“I was curious. Usually men are taller than women.”

“You seem to be unfamiliar with the wild. That’s just a prejudice.”

“I see. I learned a thing or two.”

“Tsk.”

When I nodded, Danjucheon clicked his tongue. Surprisingly, he didn’t show much of a reaction.

From noble mtl dot com

Or maybe he was suppressing his anger inside. I slowly stepped back and stood next to Dan Ye-rin.

“You’re doing something cute.”

As soon as I got back, Dan Ye-rin smiled and said that. It seemed rude rather than cute.

He tilted his head and asked in a puzzled voice. Of course, it was not the official language but the Chinese language.

“You think it’s cute?”

“Yeah. It’s like a puppy being rude to a person.”

“Is that a compliment?”

“That’s a compliment. But I should say you’re a tiger, not a puppy.”

I’m not sure what it means. I guess you can just think of it as something that’s been roughly scratched.

Originally, this kind of thing was a mental battle that was important. Furthermore, Danjucheon had the temperament of a madman and was slightly lacking in patience.

Right now, it’s okay because I’m exploring, but I’ll be anxious after the fight with the dragon.

So it will depend on how well you can use the dragon. I have already decided how to lead.

“We’ve arrived. General Yi-ryong is ahead.”

Before long, we arrived at where General Yiryong was. A large door stood before our eyes.

Beyond that, a powerful shout could be faintly heard, and judging by the number of people, not just one, it seemed to be a place for training martial arts.

“It’s a military facility.”

“Military facility?”

“This is where soldiers and warriors train. What a poisonous hobby.”

Dan Ye-rin grumbled as if she was dissatisfied. It seemed like she had chosen this place as a training ground to embarrass herself.

And then you’re going to pretend it was a ‘mistake’ and try to take my life. In order to completely end Dan Ye-rin’s political life.

The military will soon move according to the general’s will. After all, soldiers are people who are satisfied with their lives as long as they have food, honor, and recognition.

-Squeaky

As I was thinking about that, the large door opened wide. It seemed to have realized we were coming.

The vast training ground unfolded next. It was as large as the academy, but its oriental design caught my eye.

What was particularly striking was the ceiling. The ceiling was made up of numerous trees intertwined like a spider’s web to support the heavy roof.

“Everyone stop! The Crown Prince has visited the training grounds!”

As I was looking around the interior, a loud shout echoed through the air. The shout caused all the soldiers training to stop their activities.

At the same time, gazes were focused in this direction. Danjucheon lightly raised his hand and greeted.

On the other hand, Dan Ye-rin······ just stayed still. She must have realized that even if she greeted him, he would only be an attendant.

The military is already under the tight control of Danjucheon. If you do something that will make you look bad for no reason, you could disappear without anyone knowing.

“To the prince······!”

“Ah. Okay. You’ve already caused trouble because of me, so just move on.”

Danjucheon waved his hand to General Yilong, who was trying to greet Guan Yu, and passed by.

If the dragon had greeted him as he was, all the soldiers would have bowed and shouted loudly. It would have been quite a spectacle.

It’s not because Danjucheon is kind, it’s more like a show. It’s about showing regret and being considerate at the same time.

At least he is a person who knows how to take care of his own people, so there is little internal dissatisfaction.

“You don’t have any plans for today, do you? I thought so.”

“Yes. If you just give me the order, I will prepare right away.”

“Then I’d like a seat. If possible, a place with a good view.”

“I will obey your orders.”

Show, show. These are the thoughts that came to my mind as I watched the dragon bowing its back.

If no one was watching, I would have just told them to do it roughly. But now, there are countless soldiers watching.

I followed the dragon and glanced at Dan Ye-rin. At that moment, she was also looking at me, so our eyes met.

“··· ···”

“··· ···”

Dan Ye-rin’s gaze was filled with worry and concern. It seemed like she was worried that something might go wrong, beyond getting hurt.

In times like these, it is necessary to show through actions rather than just telling people to be at ease. The die has already been cast.

After that, there were simple procedures and a show of short stories, but I was busy choosing my weapon.

It is more convenient to hold something in one hand than to be bare-handed. There is one thing that is more important than anything else.

‘If you want to cut that beard cleanly, it would be good to have a blade that is neatly pointed.’

A weapon that is sharp enough to properly utilize my strength. There is only one of them.

It’s an axe. It’s originally called Mjolnir, and there’s a weapon that I got from the Tartar forge, but it’s in the dorm.

Since I entered the palace, I left my weapons behind. My status as Dan Ye-rin’s bodyguard also doesn’t mean much.

“But who is that guy?”

“Haven’t you heard the rumor? You’re Princess Dan Ye-rin’s bodyguard.”

“Really? That’s too bad. Why of all people······”

“I guess I just have to get used to it now. This isn’t the first or second time this has happened.”

As I was choosing my weapon and heading to the training ground, I heard the soldiers’ chatter in my ears.

Even if you speak softly, I can hear everything. Moreover, since everything is automatically translated, there is no problem in eavesdropping.

Judging from the fact that it’s not the first or second time, it seems like they’re used to this kind of thing. Of course, I don’t blame them.

The mastermind behind all this was Danjucheon. If only he could somehow disappear, things would go back to normal.

‘I don’t know when that will be.’

There’s something I need to check before that. I looked around the stands.

I was wondering if there was a re-enactment······ and there really was. It was right where Dan Ju-cheon and Dan Ye-rin were sitting.

It was a format where Danjucheon was in the middle, with Lee Je and Dan Yerin sitting on either side.

‘When did you come?’

Could it be that she came while I was looking through my weapons? I stared blankly at her.

But that was only for a moment, as the dragon appeared holding his beloved bottle.

His weapon is none other than a giant crescent sword. It looks like the Green Dragon Crescent Sword that Guan Yu of the Three Kingdoms favored and used.

-Boom! Boom!

A dragon swinging a weapon that looks heavy at first glance with ease. The soldiers praised his actions.

You might say that’s all you can praise, but honestly, it’s a strength that deserves praise.

It’s rare to find someone swinging a logging axe around like that, but he swung his sword like a sword.

“What a pity. For a star to set in a place like this.”

“··· ···”

“But this is all your fault. Know your place, you little puppy.”

Before we started, the dragon taunted me with a mixture of pity and sadness. But I didn’t react.

People with long tongues are usually the ones who are timid. In Yi-ryong’s case, it’s probably confidence.

-Dang!

A loud bell rang to signal the start. I immediately threw my axe.

As soon as he started, Yi-ryong looked very flustered, as if he didn’t know how to throw an axe. However, he was the strongest general in the Huan Empire.

-Whew!

I avoided the axe throw by slightly turning my head. It just barely grazed my hair.

This is my move. I threw the axe and rushed at the dragon at the same time.

Of course, the dragon was no fool, so he immediately responded. He quickly and strongly slashed the Unwol Sword in a diagonal direction.

The weight added to the reach and the blade struck my shoulder just before I could get close.

-Whoaang!!

Again, it ‘hit hard’. It didn’t dig into my shoulder.

Since muscle strength is muscle strength, it stings a little, but I’m used to this level of pain. It’s practically meaningless.

But seeing that he feels pain, we can infer that he is acting like a general.

“What?!”

But not to the dragon. He was greatly surprised by its unimaginable durability.

My shoulder is fine even after putting in mana. This gave me a lot of time.

Eventually, I got close to his nose and pulled my fist back, ready to strike at any moment.

The dragon also planned to retreat and evade while preparing, but······

-Whoa!!!

His swaying beard caught his ankle. As he stepped back, the position of the beard remained the same, according to the law of inertia.

I grabbed the beard with my left hand. The dragon opened its eyes wide, not knowing that I would grab the beard.

“Just one room.”

While saying that.

-Bam!!!

He just punched me in the face.
