The Only Male Student in the Academy - The Only Male Student in the Academy chapter 83

083. Eve (3)

After dinner, we gathered in the reception room on the first floor.

Maybe ‘we’ isn’t an accurate expression yet.

There are a total of 8 people gathered here.

Ariel Beheritt, Marie Ruhelif, Claire Entirus.

Della Calliot.

Benit Findelnerka, Nina.

Maurice Ivar.

Alex Falto.

“…….”

“…….”

Possibly unique aspects. But at the same time, they are also quite familiar.

They have nothing in common. They have different affiliations, origins, and ranks.

Nevertheless, the reason why these 8 people are gathered together is because they are tied together under the name of the ‘8th Party’.

I secretly grabbed the party schedule in my hand.

8Th Party Schedule

Party Leader: Ariel Beheritt / Adjutant: Claire Entirus

Members: Marie Ruhelif, Della Calliot, Benit Findelnerca, Nina, Alex Falto, Maurice Aiva.

—–

In addition to the 8th party, the other 7 parties were listed on the party list, but that was the only letter that caught my eye. Maybe it’s hard to care about anything other than my party.

I let out a small sigh at the aspects that had somehow become bizarre.

“From now on, the face-to-face ceremony begins.”

Yes. This is face to face

Tomorrow’s raid will go down to the dungeon for a raid, so now is the only chance to get acquainted with each other’s faces.

It is difficult to demand strong unity as it is an improvised party anyway. So what I’m trying to do from now on may be a one-sided force that is extremely focused in one direction.

But at least there should be no conflict between them.

“Some of you in this room may be wondering why you are here.”

“More than that, what I’m most curious about is why are you the party leader, Ariel Beheritt.”

It is Alex who asks that question.

It wasn’t the first time I’d heard that. In fact, that’s what I’ve been hearing all over the place today.

“It’s not my decision. I’m following the decision of raid leader Jean Kartix.”

“I could have resigned myself. I think Claire-sama is more suitable to be the party leader than you are.”

Somehow, Alex seemed to think Claire deserved more honor than me.

It wasn’t that Alex was wrong. As a member of the Student Knights, Claire must have been trained to link parties.

So, in terms of aligning with the other parties, it might be better for Claire to serve as the party leader.

However, that wasn’t what was required for this raid.

“Connection with other parties is not important in this raid. It is important that 8 people function as one party.”

“What are you saying, Ariel Beheritt? Who do you think doesn’t know that?”

“I’m saying this because you don’t seem to know much about it. This raid was overworked.”

The existing raid was a party of 24 student knights.

However, 14 of them were injured, and the existing leader, Jayka, retired.

As mentioned before, the Student Knights are members with very good organizational skills.

Although the number of people increased by 40 from 24 to 64,

As the student knights, the core force, were left out and other students were filled in, the connection ability was questioned.

“That’s why it’s impossible for the entire raid to move as one body. It’s a situation where each party has to know its own role and play well.”

However, it is unclear whether he will be able to do even that well.

-“There were too many participants.

-“But just having too many of them isn’t a good thing. If each party doesn’t function as a party, it’s just a mess.”

The voice of Jean Kartix comes to mind.

Each of the 64 participants has different circumstances.

The student knights who had been participating in the raid from the beginning.

Students who formed a party of 4 to 6 to attack the Catacombs dungeon.

There were also a few solo players who could beat them all by themselves.

Even the students who came running with Jayka’s SOS this time.

That’s why I had to merge two or more parties into one.

Or we had to split a party and scatter the members.

“The reason I’m the party leader of the 8th party is also because of the chain of command within the party.”

From the beginning, I was in a position to give instructions to Marie and Claire.

The current situation of the 8th party is that the number of members has only increased by 5.

“That’s why Della came to the 8th party. Della has already worked with us once.”

Della originally belonged to the 3rd party, but this time she temporarily came out of the 3rd party.

This is because the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd parties, where 14 people were injured, are now largely reorganized.

New members like Jean Kartix belonged to the 1st party,

Conversely, Della, who belonged to the third party, had to move to another party.

And the same goes for Alex, who belonged to the 2nd party.

Because Alex has experience of matching up with Claire,

Also, because he was acquainted with the party leader, he was organized into the 8th party.

“You can get out of here if you don’t like it, Alex Falto. I have the right to banish party members.”

When I said that, Alex’s face became as if he had chewed up sh*t.

I glanced at Claire, who was sitting on the right.

Claire read my gaze and turned to Alex.

“If you don’t like Ariel, I can recommend a different party, Alex. If you want.”

“…No. I cannot entrust Claire-sama to a man like that. I will definitely protect Claire-sama.”

Alex said that with a reluctant face. Although Claire is a tanker, she is rather in a position to protect others.

Anyway, it was fortunate for me that Alex stayed.

If Alex says he’s out of here, he’ll have the melee dealership vacated.

“From now on, I will explain the role of our 8th party. In this raid, we will ‘provide maintenance’ and ‘rescue the wounded’ to the entire raid.”

For example, Claire is a wizard and can only be a tanker, but in reality she is not a pure tanker.

Putting on a barrier, giving instant crowd control, triggering an invincible weapon, or pulling aggro.

Claire hardly possesses allied fighting skills that normal tanks should have.

Personal survival ability is probably the best among all students at Philea Academy, but it is difficult to honestly say that the ‘ability to protect others’ that is required as a tanker is good.

“That’s why we support other raid members from the rear of the raid.”

The most distinctive feature of Clair is the .

Since this skill to install a wall blocks the enemy’s entryway, it is much more helpful for tanking than Claire herself.

But anyway, Is a skill that can be activated even from a distance.

Therefore, the strategy is as follows.

Claire supports the tank line of the raid through .

Marie supports long-distance crowd control with ice elemental magic, and I provide long-distance sniping or variable creation through .

Priests Dela and Benit also provide recovery skills and barriers from a distance.

“In a word, we’re called bridesmaids.”

Alex said as if tossing it.

I did not deny it. Actually, it was a maid role.

“However, our party also has one weakness. It is that our party has quite a few subordinate positions.”

Marie, the ice magician. And her priests, Della and Benit. As an alchemist, if I had to insist, it was a job that I had to stand in the back.

And as I said before, Claire is not a very good tank to protect others.

“That’s why the presence of close people is important. Especially you.”

I raised my finger and pointed.

A crude mask covering the face.

Rusty, steel-colored hair completely covers her ears, as well as a tight-fitting coat covering her neck.

The hands are also covered by gloves, so the color of the skin cannot be determined.

I don’t know anything other than that it’s just a woman.

“Maurice Aiva.”

I called her name.

Then,

“…….”

Keeping silent, nod vaguely.

His dull response made him question whether he was even human. I wonder if it might be a robot or something.

I frowned.

-“The 8th party leader, Ariel Beheritt. It is difficult to expect Claire Entirus, who is also your lieutenant, to fulfill her full role as a tank.”

-“Therefore, I have ‘Morris Aiba’ as the main tank in your party.”

– “She’s an excellent solo player. Treat her well, as she won’t defy your orders as a party leader.”

That’s what I heard earlier from Jean Kartix.

However, it was also something that could never be reassured.

She is the only one she doesn’t know – Maurice Aiba.

Having played Unknown Saga for 1532 hours, I have never heard of that name.

The day is bright and morning is coming.

Many people have already gathered in the garden in front of Count Findelnerca’s residence.

As I approached it first, six people followed me.

In order, Claire, Marie, Della, Alex, Maurice, and Nina follow me.

“Look there, it’s the 8th party.”

“Really, the second son of the duchy came this far.”

I could hear the whispering voices of the students.

The unwelcome gazes continue to pierce my face.

In the end, either Philea Academy or Count Findelnerca. It’s just that my evaluation is not good.

But today I tend to listen to gossip less often.

“Why is the duke’s madman the party leader?”

“It’s obvious. I’m uploading it because I’m from a duchy.”

“If you’re envious, ask for a change. They might change it.”

“Will I go over there just because I’m crazy?”

“Claire-sama is wise too. He could have been the party leader, but seeing as he stepped down.”

The sound of giggling laughter.

Surprisingly, there is no big objection to my role as the party leader. There are two main reasons.

One is that the 8th party has to take on the role of a bridesmaid.

Another reason is that the 8th party is full of dangerous people.

Ariel Beheritt, who is called the madman of the duchy.

Marie is treated like a time bomb.

And Benit, the little owner of Count Findelnerca’s house.

“It’s a bulletproof role. It suits him well.”

Someone’s voice pierces my ears.

Simply put, I was also a scapegoat.

From noble mtl dot com

Benit Findelnerka is, in a way, the most important person in this raid.

It is also the largest supporter of the raid, and Benit’s authority is formidable as this is the Countess of Findelnerca.

However, outside of the County of Findelnerca, Bennett is just a nobleman on the periphery.

‘As a soldier who has to fight while protecting the grandson of a member of the National Assembly…. No, is the son of a celebrity closer than the grandson of a member of the National Assembly?’

Either way, it means that if Benit gets hurt even slightly, I, the party leader, may have to take responsibility.

Conversely, if there is value in protecting Benit, at least for me, as the second son of the duchy, it is not very helpful.

Therefore, it is a very honorable thing to participate in this raid as a party leader,

The party leader of the 8th party, where there are some Warhim characters, seems like a poisoned chalice to them.

“The raid leader is coming!”

One raid member shouted, and everyone lined up in a row.

As the party leader, I had to stand in the front row, so I could see him more clearly than the other party members.

.

Three girls climb onto the platform prepared in advance by the maids of Count Findelnerca’s residence.

Jean Kartix, the current raid leader and party leader of the 1st party.

Benit, the small owner of Count Findel Nerka’s residence and a member of the 8th party.

And standing between them on crutches is Jaca Ancilla, the former raid leader.

“I think people here have given up a lot.”

Jay Carr speaks with her megaphone in her hand.

Even though her body was still in bad shape, she had a determined expression on her face.

Many girls are gathered here.

I could have gone back to my hometown to take a break for the vacation,

I could have traveled here and there,

I could have gone to the summer festival with my friends.

Only girls who did not choose anything are gathered here.

“Because it’s my honor as an adventurer, or because participating in this raid helps my grades. Let’s not say such boring things.”

Jayka says with a smile.

“We who stand here are just adventurers.

To explore one’s potential and rise to a higher level.

We are just adventuring.

So just enjoy yourself.”

With those words, Jayka came down from the podium.

She As if taking turns with her, Gene Kartix stands in front of her.

“Philea Academy Raid, starting now.”
