Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 572
572. A power that even reports cannot believe
***
“……”
The sparring between Millia and Delzen was extremely cruel to the Southern Academy.
Defeat.
It was also a defeat for Delzen, representing the Southern Academy.
Although the opponent was the Central Academy, it was not an obvious candidate for the championship, such as Han Tiansheng, who was said to be the strongest, or Azazel, who suddenly appeared.
Milia, one of the cadets at the Central Academy.
From noble mtl dot come
Despite this, Delzen, who could be considered the Southern Academy’s greatest force, was defeated.
“…”
“…”
None of the Southern Academy cadets who were watching the game even opened their mouths.
Everyone was silent or just blinking with a clearly broken expression as they looked at the defeated Delzen.
This was reality for them.
Reality, which does not reflect each individual’s ideals in the slightest, is so cold that it simply shows the results that should happen.
And Kelasia, an instructor at the Southern Academy, knew very well.
She herself was once called a genius, graduated from the academy, and became an instructor after several years of active service on the front lines.
Among the people she encountered during those countless times, there were countless people she felt were greater than herself.
‘So, I know the reality, but… .’
The reactions of Delzen and other cadets seemed to be hitting my heart painfully right now.
Jerk.
Damn…
And when the game ended, Delzen was seen turning around helplessly and coming back.
He was lowering his head with a mesmerized expression, and even as I looked at him, I sighed inwardly.
Clearly broken by reality.
Even if someone tried to strengthen my will, it was almost impossible right now.
‘Because I was like that too.’
I expected that the same result as Delzen’s defeat could come out.
But even though I knew it all, my heart ached at the painful reality.
That was usually the case with being the chief cadet.
His performance at the Academy was evaluated as the most outstanding, and in fact, there was no cadet in the South who could be Delzen’s rival.
However, when the stage was expanded and compared with other academies, Delzen must have realized this on his own.
What is a wall?
What is reality like?
Jerk.
When I came back, I cautiously opened my mouth.
“great job. “You could lose, so I hope you don’t worry too much about it.”
“…I have no shame, I am truly sorry. “Instructor.”
“no. As I said at the beginning, as long as you did your best, I think that’s okay. I just need to work harder in the future. And anyone can lose.”
I’m still trying to convey what I have to say.
“yes… .”
Cadet Delzen’s face was blank as he listened to me.
It was as if he didn’t know he would lose that much, and he clearly looked like he still couldn’t get out of the aftermath of the game.
Tap, tap.
“We just have to do better in the next game. Let’s rest a little and prepare for the next game.”
“All right.”
As Cadet Delzen, who answered blankly, passed by me, I kept my mouth shut.
This was reality.
I had that thought again while watching Cadet Delzen broken by reality.
and… .
It suddenly occurred to me.
A few days ago, I felt many things when I met cadet Han Cheon-seong, who was called the monster of Central Academy.
At that time, when I saw him with a strong will, I wondered if my teaching method was wrong or if my teaching was too lazy.
‘Because Cadet Delzen is normal.’
Thinking about it again, I thought Cadet Han Cheon-seong was strange.
When people are frustrated by defeat and feel their own insufficiencies, they reflect on themselves.
And as if something about yourself is falling apart, your heart is broken.
Even if your heart may not be broken right away at first, it will be broken by anyone through various experiences.
“…Delzen, you worked hard.”
“If you think about it, isn’t the Central Academy just abnormal?”
“That’s right, how can all cadets who are not representative cadets reach attribute level 5?”
I turned my head, conscious of several cadets talking to each other and encouraging Cadet Delzen.
Quite a distance away.
Cadet Millia, who was the other cadet, immediately headed to one side of the audience, and I felt a strange feeling as I watched him.
‘It can be said that even the compatibility of the characteristics has been reversed.’
And that wasn’t all.
Through his spirit, he demonstrated a mysterious power containing the principles of the spiral. The standards were too harsh to say that we lost because there were not enough Delzen cadets.
Even though Cadet Delzen was said to have let his guard down, in many ways the response itself could not be said to be bad.
The rapid acceleration at the moment the spirit was seen was beyond the normal range, so cadet Millia itself had to be considered an excellent cadet.
“…”
Even as I hesitated with my lips, I swallowed the sigh that was about to burst out again.
A cadet talking to such a cadet in Millia.
It was a cadet from the same Central Academy, Han Cheon-seong, whom I had met a few days ago.
The sight of them smiling brightly and talking as if congratulating them on the results of the sparring match… made the space itself feel bright.
‘I think Cadet Han Cheon-seong had a great influence on many cadets.’
I had that thought inadvertently.
There was a lot of talk about Central Academy’s performance this year being particularly abnormal.
I heard that cadets with unprecedented skills appeared in the Eastern and Western academies, but the central one was different from those academies.
All of the cadets who participated were strong.
Looking at all the cadets, there was not a single one who was considered weak.
And when I thought about why, I naturally saw a cadet.
‘Han Cheon-seong… .’
The way cadet Millia looks at cadet Han Cheon-seong after finishing sparring and the way he approaches her. Cadet Han Cheon-seong had quite a big influence on that.
When I thought about it like that, it seemed like I could naturally picture the future direction of the Colosseum.
Solo from the Central Academy.
“Is this a trend that can be prevented?”
Even though the Colosseum game itself is an individual event, the academy’s victory has a great impact on the spirit of its cadets.
In that sense, the flow of Central Academy was like a huge storm engulfing the Colosseum.
***
Wednesday afternoon.
As the game progressed, the excitement grew inside the Colosseum.
The audience cheered as the more powerful cadet displayed his skills, and most of them could not take their eyes off the sight for a moment, a sight that is rarely seen in nature.
And now.
An almost mystical scene was unfolding in the central stadium that once again exceeded their expectations.
… … .
Millia and Yumia’s winning streak.
Cheonseong, who was watching the game at ease, suddenly blinked.
Again.
A platinum-blonde woman entered the stadium with graceful steps.
Although she was obviously wearing the same cadet uniform as the other cadets, her beautiful figure looked as elegant as if she were a princess of a country.
‘Celestia.’
She was a cadet representing the Northern Academy, and a woman whose heart sank when I first saw her.
Afterwards, a cadet who appeared to be her opponent came up, and the host’s voice immediately followed.
Words spoken ceremonially before sparring begins.
-My name is Celestia Yurisian. “I come from the Northern Academy and have the legendary level 6 dragon blood trait.”
Despite her calm words as she introduced herself, my doubts rose again.
“Dragon blood… ?”
The information I received late contained information about her characteristics.
However, nothing was revealed specifically about what kind of power it was.
“Now that I think about it, what does dragon blood mean?”
“Doesn’t that mean it’s dragon’s blood or something?”
Even in the conversation between Milia and Luna, I vaguely felt the same way.
Each Legendary trait has something special and mysterious.
In that sense, dragon blood is the power of a dragon.
I wonder if it would be reasonable to look at it that way.
-Then, preparations for the sparring are now complete. Both cadets, for their own honor!
The sparring started with a shout from the host.
That’s when I watched Celestia’s movements a little more closely.
I had to face something unusual.
-Please come. I will give up the first strike.
soft voice.
At the strange voice that seemed to care about the other cadet, the other cadet was seen to stop and then throw himself.
The moment when the cadet, a characteristic of the body enhancement class, rushes at Celestia at a fairly high speed.
‘How long?’
Does she mean to not move?
It wasn’t enough to just close the distance right away, the other cadet’s powerful hand was already on the verge of striking Celestia’s body.
I wondered if she had given herself too much leeway to react.
“…!”
For an instant, I had a strange feeling as if my body had become heavy.
“Suddenly… it’s hard to breathe.”
“What, is this really the power that woman has?”
Through the surprised voices of the two people next to me, I was feeling it loudly in my body.
Even though I just look at it.
It felt like something strange was weighing me down.
Just as Millia said, it felt like something in the atmosphere had stopped for a moment, to the point where even breathing felt heavy.
“Wow!”
And I saw a reality that was hard to believe even after seeing it.
The sight of the cadet rushing towards Celestia and trying to strike her body, sighing in vain and collapsing on the spot.
It seemed so vain compared to how vigorously he had approached.
‘Celestia is definitely… .’
He didn’t even lift a finger.
Just by gazing at the cadets who rushed towards him, he clearly displayed his dragon blood trait.
“…….”
One thing that came to mind from her appearance was strength.
Even in this world, the dragon is known to exist mythologically and no one has ever seen it, but the dragon is something that appears to overwhelm countless beings.
It was like fear imprinted in my instincts.
Just like a prey who meets a being of a higher species than itself and can do nothing in front of a predator.
“Peer… ?”
Even as I uttered those words, nothing else came to mind. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to understand the strange phenomenon that has unfolded.
ㅡHeo-eok… Heo-eok…
The opposing cadet, who had collapsed, was rapidly losing his breath as time went by. He could barely support his body by pressing it with both hands on the ground, but anyone could see that he was close to his limit.
Just by standing in front of Celestia
ㅡOkay, the sparring ends here! The winner is Celestia Yurisian of the North!
Celestia’s characteristics were so overwhelming that the host had to urgently stop the sparring.
“It’s absolutely ridiculous.”
Luna’s voice sounded absurd, and I couldn’t stop laughing.
“i think so too.”
In the story, not just one but several beings that did not originally appear appear.
…and the fact that I would soon have to face them was so strange that I burst out laughing.
Excited.
Rather, my heart was pounding.
This Colosseum was by no means a competition to meet people below me.
In order for me to win, I needed to fully recognize that the Colosseum itself was an ‘ordeal’.
