I Became an Immoral Child in the Game - I Became an Immoral Child in the Game chapter 11

11 – 3-Lighthouse Village

The wannabes rolled their eyes hard to grasp the situation, but what came back was a fist wielding heavy armor.

Puck, puck, wood-deuk, aaa!

The sounds of beatings, breaking things, and screams echoed through the valley of the desolate Lighthouse Village.

In the midst of such a commotion, several articles came to me as well,

“……It’s cold outside. You’d better pack your clothes.”

The knight who saw my face clocked in and bowed cautiously before passing by.

Thanks to that, I was able to get out on my own.

“What are you?”

“I am Barton Wig…”

“You maggot! How dare you tease your mouth!”

Well, I think right now the knights will slap their stomachs with military boots and shout “Assei.”

It was a mess outside.

The bewildering questions and assault continued.

The fists of the knights armed with heavy armor were overflowing with consideration, and they were massaging the parts that didn’t fit so that they didn’t overlap.

The aspirants looked as if they were trainees at the Shinkyo University, losing their souls.

“Stand upright, you asshole!”

“Sorry, sorry!”

The man who was slapped in the ear fell down in front of me.

My eardrums must have gone out within 30 minutes of starting.

‘This is the beginning of the test.’

[Yeah, it’s pretty fun, right?]

Jin, who had been sealed away for a long time, seemed very excited about the interesting sights.

She said that there is a reason that military entertainment is a box office success even if it is criticized.

As expected, it’s the most f*cked up thing in the world when you’re beaten, but there’s no other spectacle like this.

I was looking at them roughly aligned.

“What are you doing… What are you looking at, you bastard!”

A knight who couldn’t see me properly because it was dark approached and hit the wannabe standing next to me for no reason.

“Billion?! Ki, driver! Why me?!”

“I don’t like your face! I’ll put that clown in today!”

“Why is that kid…”

“Where is the kid here?! Uh?

I’m sorry, but what can I do?

To the Knights of the Lighthouse Village, I was still the eldest son of the de Yewitz family, who might become their future commander.

What kind of blood would you touch on me?

The beating continued for about an hour.

Aside from me, there was not a single person who wanted to have a good face.

Even that Amber had chapped lips and black bruises in his eyes.

The knights dragged us to the port with endless curses.

Two small boats and a small platform in front of the port were welcoming the aspirants.

A bald man in heavy armor climbed onto the podium and began a long speech.

“Nice to meet you, poop sticks.”

It was Sir Ragnar, the lighthouse commander.

He stood on the podium and continued his speech with an air of pride.

“Did you sleep well? I hope you like the welcome ceremony prepared by our knights. Because we haven’t even started yet.”

Standing on the podium, he was not the half-penny I had seen during the day.

He was a knight and a lighthouse commander in charge of the front line against the devil.

A low, growling voice rang through the low dawn air.

Over 100 aspirants looked at Lord Ragnar with black eyes.

“You guys have come here to fight demons. Then you should know what demons are. The knights here will become demons and torment you. They will attack you endlessly, and the process will be so hard that you die. You can actually die. “We don’t care if you want to give up. We are not your nannies. We want comrades who will fight like the devil. We want a knight who will stand at the forefront of mankind and stand against the devil, even to the death. So, with clumsy determination, we stand here.” If so, leave immediately. But if you want to be a teammate, do your best. Ideal.”

After the first speech, senior engineer Helga stood on the podium and shouted.

“If you can swim, take the boat on the right! If you don’t know how to swim, get on the boat on the left! What are you doing?! Move quickly!”

“Move your feet, assholes!”

– Puck!

“Aww!”

Once again, shouting and beatings came and went.

Despite kicking and punching, the aspirants quickly threw themselves onto the boat.

Of course, I stood leisurely, and at the end of the day I quietly boarded the ship on the right.

On a dark night, the small boat went so far that the harbor could be seen as small.

Since it was such a small boat, it just rocked along with the waves.

[But the boat over there doesn’t stop?]

At Jin’s words, I saw a boat with people who couldn’t swim.

The boat stopped farther than the boat the swimmers were on.

And in that boat, the knights pushed the aspirants into the water.

Despite being far away, screams pierced the eardrums as they tore through the sky.

“You guys are basic though. They are different from the worms over there who can’t even swim while supporting the Humanity Lighthouse. They will become fish food for not understanding their topic today.”

Oh, is that so?

I can roughly understand the contents of the test.

I swallowed my laughter and waited for Helga’s next words.

“What you guys have to do is simple. Just swim back to the port. If you don’t want to fail the first test, try your best to swim back!”

As soon as Helga finished speaking, the wannabes jumped into the sea.

I watched the scene with the knights on the boat.

“Can I afford that?”

From noble mtl dot com

As I was lagging, Helga came over and started talking to me.

What is leisure?

I took off my cloak and warmed up slowly.

“I’m giving idiots a chance.”

If you know that I’ve been getting special treatment for a while, and I’m late, you’ll realize that there’s something wrong with this exam.

If you don’t realize that, no matter how much you arrive at the port in first place, it will be meaningless.

In the first place, the purpose of this test is not to determine the order.

If that’s the case, why distinguish those who can’t swim from those who can swim well?

Why did he have to go all the way to drown Joe who can’t swim?

Looking down at the sea from the boat, the people who had just run into the sea were divided into two categories.

One is an idiot who swims towards the port with all his might.

The two were people who went far out to sea to save the aspirants struggling in pain, screaming for help.

The number of the former was high, and the number of the latter was small.

However, the successful candidate was the latter.

It didn’t matter if they acted out of calculation or out of pity.

The point of this test was to find allies to fight demons.

It is because they risked their own lives to save the abandoned ‘colleague’ in a chaotic situation without being seduced by the instructor’s words.

Wake up at dawn, beat to death, blur your judgment, and test your personality.

What a terrible method.

[I thought it was just a vicious test, but I can see that he made an effort to choose people.]

‘It’s not like the knights have a long history for nothing.’

[But if you’re right, those who can’t swim will pass. Isn’t that unfair?]

‘Because they have to learn to swim first. The knights won’t be kind enough to inform you. That process will become a dungeon and all the useless guys will leave on their own.’

[Oh, that’s right. But shouldn’t you start soon too?]

‘Yes. I have to go now.’

I calmly jumped into the sea.

Although it was my first time entering the sea after coming to this world, it was not awkward at all because I had learned to swim in my previous life.

On the contrary, it seemed that he could easily swim several kilometers in the sea because of his body, which had been strengthened through training.

After swimming for a long time as if I had flippers, I reached the epicenter of the screams that pierced the air at dawn.

I counted their heads.

A total of 15 people are drowning and struggling.

There are 30 people including me who come to rescue me.

If two people saved one by one, everyone could safely head to the port.

However, I had no intention of getting along with anyone.

In the first place, none of the aspirants came even close to my level, so it was just a hindrance.

I grabbed the back of the neck of a wannabe who was struggling nearby.

“Ahhhhh!”

Then, it hit the sea at a crazy speed and went out.

The wannabe guy who had been screaming raucously in the back for a while soon fell silent.

I must have fainted.

‘Huh? Someone caught up with me?’

[This is the woman you have been eyeing.]

Amber.

She, too, was swimming with all her might to catch up with me, who was dragging someone along.

No matter how much I wasn’t swimming at all, I was a sword expert and she was a user.

It just didn’t make sense to catch up.

‘Tsk, he’s acting like a guest.’

In the original novel, she joins the Humanity Lighthouse as the chief.

I think I know the reason now.

It was strange that with that level of skill and tenacity, it wasn’t possible.

‘If you want to come under me, you’ll have to break that temper first.’

I sped up even more.

Hopefully I’ll die and fall out.

Then, as expected, she began to squeeze her body at that pace.

I had a strong will to reach the port before I did.

The problem was that the distance to the port was considerable, and her body was still too weak to withstand that will.

[Huh? It looks like something went wrong? That woman is sinking.]

In the cold sea with strong waves, he was swimming alone, dragging someone along.

In addition, she went so far as to go after me in that state, so even if she was a sword user, her fall was predestined.

I turned my head towards Amber.

Amber had a problem with her legs and she couldn’t float and kept sinking and floating her.

In addition, the would-be swimmer, unaware of her situation, wrapped around her neck and continued to interfere.

“I need help…Billion!”

No matter what I shouted or not, I slapped Amber and the would-be swimmer on the neck one after another.

Then I hung one on each arm and neck and slowly swam with only my legs.

A job closer to art.

However, once you become a sword expert, you will be able to do this kind of skill.

‘There is no easy way anyway.’

It makes me struggle.

I grumbled and dragged the three of them along and slowly swam away.

However, no matter how much I already possessed a knight-level body, due to the structural limitations of a human body with only two arms, I had no choice but to be pushed slowly from the front to the back.

I ended up being the last wannabe to arrive at the port.

“Cool! Cool! I… Cool! I don’t need help…”

Amber, who came to her senses, buried her face in the sand and shot at me with glowing eyes while spitting out water.

“Yeah, that’s all I’m saying thanks. If you have any energy left, wake up those two bundles and bring them to me.”

“……”

I walked towards the podium, wiping off my body with water.

The hour of dawn.

Aspirants were already lined up in two categories in front of the podium.

The successful students must be the one with the water-drinking guys crawling around.

“You wannabe there! Why are you late!”

Ragnar shouted from the podium.

“I’m late rescuing the drowning guys.”

“You must have said that trainees who can’t swim are thrown away? Why did you disobey the instructor?”

“I want comrades who will fight alongside the devil. But if those who went first to join the test by abandoning the drowned ones join the lighthouse, I don’t want to join that kind of place.”

“Stand to the right!”

Ragnar smiled brightly, showing yellow teeth.

Soon after Amber and the others arrived, Ragnar announced the results of the first entrance exam.

“Aspirants who did not abandon their comrades. You did not lose your judgment despite severe beatings, and proved your character by rescuing a colleague in trouble. Congratulations on passing the first test!”

Lagral announced on the podium that the first test was over and that those who passed and those who failed were divided.

Someone was still confused, as if in a dream, and some were ready to protest with ridiculous faces.

However, in the end, no one could dispute Ragnar’s declaration.

“You are now knight candidates. Be proud. Be happy. And be afraid of the remaining exams.”

Ragnar’s words echoed like a declaration behind the people leaving the port one by one.
