I Became a Munchkin Who Hides His Academy Powers - I Became The Academy’s Narrow-Eyes chapter 320

320 – A sinister man with narrowed eyes

A hero appeared on a platform watched by countless spectators.

At that moment, the audience shouted in unison. It became a thunder and shook the square.

The shouts that lasted for a while soon turned into chants for the hero.

Ceylon.

Ceylon.

Ceylon.

The city was shaking according to the rhyme contained in the two-letter word.

The hero with a kind smile quietly watched the scene and thought.

‘Wow…’ ! ‘I’m suffocating!’

Ceylon looked down at his arms in fear.

This is just standing still, but what would happen if he waved his hand here?

Perhaps at that time, the entire city might really be swept away by their shouts.

‘Is this the world Ma Jack was looking at…?’

Just like that, while Ceylon was thinking calmly on the inside, he smiled benevolently like a hero on the outside and waited for the cheers of the crowd to die down.

Currently, Ceylon’s head was full of thoughts and resolutions.

‘We have to show people what an ideal hero looks like…’ ‘

Ceylon He never once thought he wanted to be a hero.

The reason he saved the world was simply to restore his daily life and happiness.

That is why Ceylon did not feel much joy at being praised as a hero.

But apart from that, he felt a sense of responsibility.

The duty to show people what they expect from a hero.

Ceylon thought he had that obligation.

Why? Because they recognized themselves as heroes.

That was the correct mindset as a hero that Ceylon, who had never lived the life of a hero or desired, came up with in his own way.

“Anyway. Solar. “Don’t we, number 348, look dignified today~?”

“… Surely.”

For that purpose, Ceylon had reaped the power of its characteristics to lighten its own impression.

In addition, the etiquette that was perfected after receiving special training from Jena over the past few days is added.

“Damn… Was it really true that a place makes a person? !? That Ceylon guy suddenly becomes so cool-“

From Noble mtl dot com

“… “It looks like your muscles have gained a bit.”

“Sounds like a muscle! Ceylon was that cool from the beginning!?”

“…Hey Adela. Don’t you remember what we did to her in the beginning?”

“Sigh, so loud…!”

The man standing on the podium did not look like he was laughing insincerely, nor did his mood seem light.

It was definitely a benevolent smile, and the atmosphere was soft yet firm.

A heroic story that people talk about.

It was the appearance of an ideal hero, as if the great hero from the heroic story had come right out of it.

Heroes aroused people’s admiration and cheers just by their very existence.

The crowd’s cheers for him showed no signs of stopping, and on the contrary, they became even hotter.

Agion looked up to Ceylon, looking slightly tired of the crowd’s reaction.

“Damn… Ceylon guy… How good does it feel right now… “

Agion thought.

Ceylon must be feeling an absolute ecstasy as it receives the cheers of this many spectators.

It was a very reasonable guess because humans are beings who crave respect and admiration from others.

“… “

Nevertheless, that guess was wrong.

Seylon, who was playing the role of a hero, thought as he looked down at the audience cheering at him.

‘Aren’t I too calm anyway?’

At first, he thought it was thanks to the power of his trait that he could remain sane in any situation.

But it was different. As far as I know, that trait doesn’t affect emotions.

If so, why?

Why can’t I feel any emotion in this situation where it is natural to be moved?

‘I regained the daily life and peace I had longed for… I even received the respect of people I didn’t expect… ‘

Ceylon then suddenly discovered Adela and her group mixed in with the crowd.

The moment they made eye contact with Ceylon, their faces lit up and they waved their hands vigorously.

“… “

The mechanical hero’s smile contained emotion.

Ceylon waved his hand and tried to respond to his friends’ greeting.

‘… ‘

But the hand of Ceylon stops before going up.

The corners of Ceylon’s mouth, which had been drawing a hero’s benevolent smile, were slightly twisted.

Ceylon openly turned his head and looked away from them.

Then I looked at their reactions out of the corner of my eye.

“Ceylon!?”

“… You definitely made eye contact with us, right?”

“But you ignored us.”

“Why…” ?”

“Why???”

“Perhaps we are nothing to him anymore.”

“I hate it!!!”

“Ah, Ceylon! “I thought you were my best friend!”

“It’s a shame. “There are a lot of secrets I haven’t been able to tell him yet.”

It was a moment when the humanity of a hero praised for being noble was displayed without hesitation.

As he amplified his senses with his abilities, he took a closer look at the reactions of his friends who had turned away from him.

For a moment, satisfaction appeared on Ceylon’s face after having fun in a stupid way.

He looked at Adela and the others again and waved his hand happily.

With a mischievous smile that was significantly different from the previous mechanical hero’s smile.

“Ah!!!”

For a moment, the three are relieved and happy at the same time.

“… Wait. That person. It looks like you’re smiling? I mean, I mean. “Like it’s fun.”

Adela muttered as she closely examined Ceylon’s expression with an antique telescope that matched her unique white ceiling armor.

The three looked at each other. They shook their heads excitedly.

Melhen crossed her arms and nodded her head.

“I should say, fortunately. Ceylon guy. “It’s still the same.”

Ceylon became even more excited at the three people’s reactions and waved his hand.

“Si, Ceylon waved at me… !”

“You shook it at me!?!”

“Ah… “Now I have no time to die even if I die.”

To others, he looked like a hero waving affectionately to the audience.

The audience became even more enthusiastic and cheered for Ceylon.

However, Ceylon already had no regard for the audience’s response.

He eagerly rolled his eyes and scanned the audience.

Soon, Sinia, Solar, and the members of the hunting dogs were found.

Ceylon repeated to them the series of pranks he had just played on Adela and the others.

“Achacha~ We ended up getting hit by number 348~ By the way, it’s really nice to see~? Yes~ That’s our number 348~”

“… “Do you think that looks good?”

“Ugh… ! Suddenly my head… !”

“When I saw that person doing that, I suddenly had a nightmare from back then… “

They shuddered when they recalled the time when they tried to use Ceylon and were made fun of.

Next was Ledar.

“hahahahaha. Anyway, I can’t stop our Ceylon friend. “I thought he could act like a hero with that personality, and sure enough, he was different.”

He recalled the memory of the time when he tried to threaten Ceylon but was actually threatened, and burst into laughter.

Next was Meloine.

“Tsk. Anyway, he seems like a conniving guy.”

While ignoring Ceylon, he clicked his tongue when he recalled the memory of her being humiliated by her younger sister whom he despised so much.

Ceylon did not leave out a single precious relationship.

Thankfully, we found them all in attendance, somehow found them among the audience, and carefully teased them one by one.

In a moment.

Finally, Ceylon said a secret and intimate greeting to all its people.

In the process, Ceylon waved his hand to all parts of the audience, so the excitement in the place reached its peak.

“Ceylon!!! Please also look here… !!!!”

“Ceylon smiled at me… ah… “

Some people were almost crying, while others were so excited that they fainted.

There was absolutely no atmosphere conducive to giving the speech that Ceylon had worked so hard to prepare to portray the ideal hero.

‘Okay.’

Despite this, Ceylon did not mind at all.

He had a rather relaxed look on his face.

I came to a realization while spending only a short but valuable(?) Time with precious people in Ceylon.

It was also the answer to the concerns that had made Ceylon suffer.

Why do you feel no emotion when the public is crazy about you?

It was simple.

It was because it wasn’t fun.

To be respected and respected unconditionally as a hero.

As expected. That wasn’t his taste.

‘Then it would be very tasteless to tease you.’

So Ceylon decided to stop trying to live up to the image of a flawless hero that people wanted him to be.

“Everyone. Nice to meet you all.”

It was the first thing Ceylon said after ascending to the podium.

The sound, which was too gentle to reach the audience’s ears through the shouts that were currently filling the square, was clearly transmitted to all the audience through electromagnetic magic.

“I am truly grateful that you took the precious step to see a guy like me. I would like to use this precious opportunity to say something to you all.”

The audience listened to the story of Ceylon in silence.

Rather than listening intently, it was closer to being embarrassed and speechless.

“Si, Ceylon, why are you acting like that all of a sudden-“

“Why are you doing that? What?”

“What… I don’t know if this is the problem… “Don’t you think the atmosphere has suddenly become strange?”

“My words! What should I say – the atmosphere has suddenly become lighter?”

The audience was excited.

If it were normal, the speaker on the podium would also be embarrassed.

However, this was not the case for the squinted, groggy man.

He continued his story with even more excitement at the people’s bewildered looks.

“I want to take this opportunity to make it clear: I am not the perfect hero that the bards sing about. The things I have done are not motivated by a great sense of duty to save the world or anything like that. I just live the life I want. “I wanted to live a good life, and I just worked hard for that, everyone.”

Ceylon opened its eyes and appealed with two sincere eyes.

He spoke in an even more serious tone this time.

“I have people I love. No, I have people I love. As a hero, I didn’t want to be rich and famous. I just wanted to spend a peaceful daily life with them. So everyone, please, let me go. Instead of praising them as heroes, would you bless them and my love?”

The audience was in an uproar.

Oh.

Love. It’s good.

But suddenly?

Anyway, love has been the keyword that works best for people, both in the past and now.

The keyword ‘hero’ was also added. The audience listened to Ceylon’s story with sparkling eyes.

“Today, I plan to ask them to be with me for the rest of my life.”

Proposal!

Love, heroes, and even a proposal!

The audience felt that it was a good idea since it was now a speech and award ceremony.

It was just crazy exciting.

Who on earth is the woman who made that man save the world?

Who is this blessed woman who captured the heart of that insidious and mysterious hero who refused any kind of wealth or glory?

“…”

Seeing the crowd like that, Ceylon smiled.

“That expression…”

The moment they saw that very mischievous smile, his acquaintances in Ceylon could easily predict his next actions.

Ceylon bent his upper body at an angle.

He raised his index finger, placed it in front of his lips, and said with a sinister smile.

“That’s a secret. For now.”

“…”

There was silence in the place. And right before it explodes-

“Anyway, let’s leave it at that. I’ll excuse myself at this point!!!”

He cleverly used teleportation magic and disappeared from the scene.

aaah!!!!!

A roar, almost like a scream, erupted from the remaining spectators.

The awarding ceremony of the great hero Ceylon, which would later be described as a historical event in many senses, ended like that.

The hero’s love story quickly spread across the continent, which surprisingly resulted in the festival becoming even hotter.

Even though Ceylon put down the image of a hero, the public was still enthusiastic about him.

Not to an ideal hero, but to a sinister man with narrowed eyes.

***

The first thing Ceylon did after turning the stage upside down and running away was to kidnap the five brides in the waiting room.

Ceylon headed to the location they had prepared in advance with the girls.

It was on a hill overlooking the sea at a glance.

Sunset. The sun on the horizon quietly colored their world.

At the venue, a simple engagement ceremony hall was prepared that was frugal but elaborate and cute.

“What is all this… Did you really intend to do this from the beginning?”

Hwivien looked around the place and spoke to Ceylon with a shocked look on his face.

Ceylon responded with a heartless laugh.

“Actually, I didn’t like it. Our most important moment was being turned into a political story about cronyism and concubines. So, in a word – this is a kind of far-fetched thing. I am a hero who saved the world. “I thought it might be okay to force myself to this level, so I tried to force it once…”

Ceylon trailed off her words and looked at the girls.

“…”

When the women heard the story of Ceylon, they each showed different reactions as they looked at each other.

In a moment. This time, Drin spoke on behalf of the women.

“So, what’s the next schedule?”

Ceylon stood in the center of the prepared ceremony hall and gestured to them.

Their own important time, undisturbed by anyone, has begun.
