Miri sat down.
As John tried to support Miri, he heard a familiar voice.
“It’s poison.”
John and Miri’s heads turned at the same time.
It was the swordsmanship teacher, Bastia.
she asked in a trembling voice.
“Poisoned… What do you mean?”
“It is literally. Except for one person over there… There are bloodstains only where the pole is nailed.”
Miri’s head turned toward the end of the pole again. It was as Bastia said. Only the nailed hands and shoulders were covered with blood scabs, and the performance clothes they were wearing looked clean.
Except for one person.
One of them was the leader of a circus troupe.
“Take my advice, John. If you really want to be for that girl, don’t show yourself close.”
John could understand Bastia’s meaning.
“That’s a warning from the Frodo family to me.”
“… Things like that happen, too.”
“If you translate it literally, it will roughly look like this. ‘There may be poison in your next meal.’”
Bastia was a little surprised. Not because of what John said, but because of John’s calm demeanor. John said while washing his face dry.
“What is the reason for making such a loud noise about a warning that could have been spoken?”
Bastia pondered for a moment whether she could tell what had happened during the faculty meeting. I don’t think there was any directive to keep it a secret. It was something to be revealed anyway.
“There was a letter from the Frodo family.”
“What was written on it?”
Bastia thought about the contents of the letter for a while before saying,
“I am going to send the rebels of the empire who tried to cause a rebellion. Wouldn’t it be a good educational material for the discipline of the Empire if you show it to everyone in the academy?”
As soon as John heard it, he could see through its intention.
“It is a threat.”
“… Are you really 18?”
“yes that’s right. and-“
John could see that this was no small matter.
“I’m not the only one targeted for that threat.”
Bastia’s eyes widened.
It was as it was said.
The placid style of the letter is not important. All of the teachers present at the faculty meeting took this as a threat.
But it was hard to believe that an 18-year-old kid had read that this was a threat.
Bastia asked with a suspicious expression.
“Explain.”
“It’s just like the letter. It means that ‘all’ of the people here will be educated on ‘the discipline of the empire’.’
It is not just students who are here now. Johann looked straight into Bastia’s eyes.
“It means ‘educating’ everyone in the academy, including the teachers and even the dean.”
“right.”
“Then the meaning of the expression ‘discipline of the empire’ is different.”
“How will it change?”
John looked at Miri with pitying eyes and said,
“This is not a threat from aristocrats to the common people. It’s a family that doesn’t even need that in the first place.”
“then?”
“This is a threat from the great nobles of the empire, the Frodo family, to the other nobles.”
“What is the threat?”
“Can we stop now? You’re the one who told me it was poisoned.”
When Bastia grabbed his arm, Johann was a little annoyed. Because he wanted to talk to Miri somewhere else first.
But Bastia persistently asked John.
“Tell me anyway. What is the threat?”
“What is it? It’s like, ‘You can kill a mouse or a bird without knowing it’.”
He was such an amazing kid. There were many things I wanted to share right away, but there were a lot of eyes on me.
“With Bastia… The boy is the one who fought the jackal back then.”
“But that girl… Aren’t you also a circus member?”
“I heard you two are dating?”
It was a combination that was harder not to get attention.
Spring Gladiator.
The boy who defeated him and broke the jackal’s shoulder.
And the female circus member who stopped the boy’s flying kick.
Bastia said without letting go of John’s arm.
“This girl named Miri looks dangerous.”
John nodded. Currently, she is the only surviving circus performer.
“So, what are you going to do?”
In front of Yohan’s half-step, Miri was crying while curled up. Johann wanted to believe that Bastia’s words contained goodwill.
“… I am thinking about it.”
And then, a podium was set up in front of the crowd. Soon, a person came up to the podium. was the dean
In the letter from the Frodo family, it was not specifically pointed out that the dean was to be announced. However, the dean did not postpone this to other teachers.
Looking at the children’s faces, he said flatly.
“I am the dean.”
The dean pointed behind him without much haste.
“And these are the ones who plotted the rebellion.”
Children’s sighs broke out here and there. The dean opened his mouth slowly, holding numerous corpses above his head.
“Unintentionally, I have to tell you this story in front of you.”
‘It’s a lie.’
John was able to notice at once. The corpses of circus performers placed behind the podium were raised high enough to be the dean’s halo.
“It’s an intentional production.”
“okay.”
“The dean… now… .”
John gulped down. When a strong visual is produced, there is no choice but to have a clear goal.
“… You’re trying to be a scary educator.”
Bastia decided not to be surprised anymore. He decided to see Yohan as a small adult rather than as a child. The murmurs appeared here and there and then disappeared without a sound.
The dean’s voice continued.
“The laws of the Empire are strict, and the ranks are defined in those laws. The scene unfolding behind me now is a scene where those who want to destroy that class are being destroyed on the contrary. Please watch this scene for a while.”
Among the people with their heads down, if only John had his head down, he would have jumped out. John had lifted his head like men.
However, his eyes focused on Miri, who was lying on the floor. He covered his mouth with his hand and spoke in a voice that only she could hear.
“already. tell me. Are you involved in that too?”
There was no slight movement in Miri. And John did not raise his voice any higher.
“already. tell me. Are you involved in that too?”
Still haven’t heard back from Miri. Yohan repeated the words without changing a single word, like a tape recorder. three times, four times, five times… .
John intended to repeat what he had said dozens of times. After hearing the answer, you will be able to decide what to do now. And it did. After about 20 or so, Miri answered in a weak voice.
“It is related.”
“Damn it,” John muttered briefly and looked around the walls of the schoolyard. Waldam was not a possible height.
“Not all of these conspired to rebel. However, those who acquiesced to the rebellion plan even though they knew about it, and those who were not aware of the rebellion plan were also executed.”
This was an obvious exercise in power by House Frodo. If those who were unaware of the rebellion plan were also executed together, they could bring everyone in the world together.
Of course, what worried Yohan more was that Miri couldn’t be an exception.
“You are in danger at this rate.”
Students and soldiers who saw the corpse began to hum. And still there was no answer from Miri. It was to the point that Bastia, who was eavesdropping on it, became impatient.
After a while, Miri, who had finally stopped crying, answered something. But it was a very small voice.
“I’m sorry, what?”
“… say.”
“In other words. I can not hear well.”
The next moment, Miri glared at John and said,
“Just kill me!!!”
The screams of all kinds of children had already created a whirlwind of confusion around them. It should be said that it was fortunate that I was able to be buried in the surrounding noise.
Miri thought.
All the members are dead, now it’s your turn.
In her mind, the words she had said to the leader were sparsely floating in her mind.
‘Is this going down your throat now?’
‘then… What about our giant?’
It wasn’t because of the giant.
‘Fuck. Don’t you know how much I’ve been waiting for this? That’s five years!’
‘… Then, what if I could let the jackal stay?’
‘Whatever I do… What if I could let Jackal stay here, at the academy?’
It cannot be said with certainty.
It was an uncertain plan.
And Miri found out.
In that situation, why did he choose to stay here?
At that time, the leader was seeing through Miri’s mind.
‘You’d rather be… How about living in the mansion of that Johann family?’
‘Anyone who thinks he’s Yohan, should’ve twisted it properly and straightened it out a bit.’
“I… I… .”
A feeling of self-loathing came over me.
Miri felt like she was going crazy.
“I… It was something I was afraid of.”
John could not grasp the context of Miri’s words. However, it was possible to guess that Miri’s mind would be anxious.
“I will help you, follow me. Run away from here.”
Miri didn’t put strength in her legs. She looked at John’s face from afar.
‘It’s because of this bastard.’
John pulled the hand several times to establish an uncooperative premise.
‘It’s because this bastard started a riot back then.’
‘If only this bastard hadn’t smashed the jackal’s shoulder… .’
John grabbed Miri’s wrist. There was a thread wrapped around her wrist by the leader.
“No, give your legs some strength… wake up.”
When Johan’s fingers covered the leader’s thread, Miri seemed to know whom to rage against.
she screamed.
“Hey, it’s a dog! Everything is ruined because of you!”
“… uh?”
“I don’t need anything! Just kill me like this, you fucker… .”
perok-
Miri couldn’t finish her words. Bastia’s fist was stuck in her abdomen. A terrible pain then immobilized her. It felt like there was a hole in my stomach
I can barely breathe. The pain, as if bleeding at any moment, blocked all her movements.
But in an instant, John spread the killing.
“Shit. What’s so drastic… .”
John held his right hand tightly with his left. If he hadn’t done that, his fist would have just bounced off. Towards the face of the swordsmanship teacher who was 15 cm above his own face.
‘I have to endure it.’
It was for two reasons.
The first reason is a very realistic reason.
The fact that he couldn’t beat Bastia with his bare hands.
The second reason was the result of Bastia’s actions. Miri, who was about to scream, fell silent.
John took a deep breath and said.
“Intentionally?”
Bastia didn’t answer, but it seemed right.
All the circus performers are dead.
And Miri is a circus member.
You should never do anything to draw people’s attention in such a situation. If she screamed in this place, Miri wouldn’t have been able to hide anywhere, let alone sneak out.
‘I don’t know how things will go.’
John quietly observed his surroundings.
Don’t send ‘what if’ notices.
“It’s difficult.”
Bastia thought back to the last time he hit a woman. At least, it would have to go back to the time when they were playing ball games. The sight of Miri trembling with her mouth wide open at him made him feel guilty.
“From my standpoint, I can’t carry it. There are too many eyes.”
“… Should I run away?”
“Well. I’m not sure-“
Bastia was definitely trying to help herself.
“… Now is the only time to let him run away.”
John was anxious. There was quite a distance to the back of the parade ground.
‘Should I run with him on my back?’
He did not trust the muscles of the character ‘Johan Esperts’.
“By the way, in a little while we’ll be doing a silent remorse for the dead over there.”
“Ahh. Did you gather them to observe silence?”
“okay. And if you do it wrong, that girl could be included in the ‘dead ones’ too.”
John said with determination.
“Even if you can’t, you should.”
At the same time, the dean’s voice was heard.
“… So, for these fools who dreamed in vain, let us observe a moment of silence.”
The dean bowed his head first, and the children bowed their heads one by one.
Seeing Bastia’s wink, Johan lifted the convulsing Miri on his back.
Fortunately, it was lighter than I thought. John said softly.
“thank you. Bastia.”
“Shut up, run if you’re going to run.”
John nodded.
After confirming that everyone had their heads down, he quietly ran away with Miri on his back.
