It is inevitable that large and small incidents occur in any organization every year.
No matter how thoroughly you manage it, there can’t be no flaws since it’s done by people.
Therefore, it is not surprising that accidents occur, and it is no exaggeration to say that how well follow-up measures are taken is a standard that shows the capabilities of an organization.
In other words, what matters is how well you train, and you shouldn’t be obsessed with what happened right away.
… But now, things were different.
“I heard that an inspector from the royal family is coming.”
“Your Majesty, no, the Dean, they are trying to keep an eye on things, but they are making a fuss because they have taken the opportunity to do so, even though they normally wouldn’t come out.”
The royal family is stirring up trouble in the academy.
Even now, soldiers are walking around the department, searching through all the documents and disrupting work… .
It was natural that teachers’ complaints were rising.
However, they did not blindly criticize the royal family.
I know how serious this matter is, so I am willing to cooperate.
however….
“I heard that the royal family already knew that there were signs of a terrorist attack?”
“Ha, this is a total witch hunt! What did the Dean do wrong-!”
“Who said no?”
The royal family and the academy are the same, so why is it that only the academy gets criticized like this?!
-These complaints seeped into the teachers and created anger.
“It’s like a dog covered in manure scolding a dog covered in chaff.”
A sigh that accurately describes this situation.
In fact, it was a fairly well-known rumor that not only the royal family but everyone else was reporting signs of terrorism.
One knight spoke passionately, but no one listened.
In some ways, it is a belated reflection, and it is a situation where everyone cannot help but be a sinner.
But on the other hand, no one can shift responsibility now.
If we were to shift the blame here, someone would have to go to the guillotine, and if one person goes to the guillotine, all of that person’s family members would become the dew of the execution ground.
At this point, no one could trust anything, not even the gratitude from the royal family or the disturbing rumors circulating within the academy.
The mud fight has already begun, and the atmosphere will remain tense for some time.
“… But what on earth is the identity of the ‘first reporter’?”
“I don’t know, because no one knows the information.”
“Rumor has it that he was a big, handsome knight….”
“If you’re a big knight, um, uh, really…?”
“Let’s not say anything out of the blue. It would be rude to him.”
“Yeah, yeah.”
First reporter.
There was a rumor that there was a person who first declared to the Dean and the Princess that a terrorist attack was about to occur.
At some point, it was a rumor that reached everyone’s ears, and it was natural for people to be suspicious and look for the first reporter.
After all, it is common sense to be suspicious of the source of information and to dig into it.
… but strangely, no information about the person who submitted the report was circulated.
Even though it could be found out through investigation.
Even the soldiers moving in real time are keeping quiet even though they have heard the rumors… .
It may have been an unusual flow in many ways, but it was inevitable.
“Oh, this is driving me crazy. If we chase down the informant, it seems like everything will be solved, but why are they telling us not to chase down the informant?”
“Tseup, why don’t you just dig into it? Who knows, you might be able to make some money.”
“Hey, if you want to die, die alone. Don’t try to drag other people into it.”
From the royal family to the top ranks of the academy.
An order was given that no one should pursue the source of the information.
For some unknown reason, an order was given that he was not the culprit.
A strict warning was even given not to dig or even think about causing any damage.
So the investigators were forced to do nothing but kill time and give up easy means of obtaining crucial clues.
We agreed not to disturb the hornet’s nest.
And now, the knight who is believed to be the first to report and to know the whole truth, and who has also earned the title of ‘Hero of the Academy’ through this incident…
“─I’m Sosim, who will be transferring to the Swordsmanship Department. Please treat me well.”
“No, it’s not So-shim-i, it’s Derek… .”
“Do you want to be called by your name?”
“… Was this the military?”
We were introducing a new new face.
* * *
As a result, all 80 students in the Department of Swordsmanship received high grades in the semester evaluation.
He also showed a good performance in the match against the rock troll.
It was a great compliment to their courage and fighting spirit against hundreds of monsters, and it acknowledged their potential.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the grades received by the current first-year students of the Department of Swordsmanship are the highest of any class in history.
Some people received scholarships based on such high grades, but it was only a scholarship in name, and it literally guaranteed full living expenses.
It was a rain shower in a drought for the bears who were always struggling with money, and they no longer needed to worry about money while attending the academy.
And not only the bears, but also other nobles, the young ladies and the young ladies, were to be awarded medals more valuable than money, and this was an opportunity to raise the family name.
Everyone was so overcome with emotion that they risked their lives fighting in vain.
However, none of them were arrogant enough to think that they had survived because they were good.
“-First of all, the instructor is grateful that everyone gathered safely without anyone dying. Everyone did a good job.”
It was only because of that that they had to know that they were alive.
Lee Han.
A knight who is evaluated to have been the first to step forward in this terrorist attack, destroying the monsters and saving all the audience and students.
Furthermore, he is a hero who is evaluated to have saved the royal road!
The cadets looked at each other with renewed interest, as if they had known this would happen someday.
‘I knew you’d make a name for yourself.’
‘He’s a great guy, really.’
‘… I saw yesterday that there was a mountain of love letters on the instructor’s desk, presumably from noble ladies… I’m jealous.’
The notoriety that had spread about him in the academy, knowingly or unknowingly, had long since been erased, and now, instead of fear and disgust, he was showered with admiration and favorable looks.
For those who worked together, it would be a lie to say that they didn’t feel envious of him who received more attention and honor than them, but even they felt their hearts pounding for no reason when they saw their teacher.
That makes sense.
‘It’s funny how you don’t respect me when I stopped that monster all by myself.’
Because the achievements he achieved were that great.
An ancient monster that seems to come out of a myth.
Everyone in the Academy saw the struggle against the troll, who boasted a weight that rivaled that of a giant.
If we hadn’t been able to stop that monster until the end, not only the Academy, but the entire capital would have been in danger.
So he is a hero.
Because he was a man who saved countless lives on his own and displayed a noble spirit by holding off the monsters until reinforcements arrived.
…but.
“Instructor, there is a noble outside who wants to meet you. What should we do?”
“I told them to turn off and not disturb the class.”
“… You’re a count?”
“Then should I go myself?”
“… If you go there yourself, you’ll probably break the other person’s neck, right? I’ll just go there and politely decline.”
The instructor himself didn’t seem to have any interest in what I had done.
On the contrary, it just seems like they are very annoyed by the annoying attention being poured on them.
‘I’m glad I have an assistant.’
‘He has a strong temper.’
I thought that if Damian hadn’t been so adept at dealing with the nobles and merchants who came to visit, he would have been in trouble a long time ago.
“They seem like people with nothing to do.”
“… But I don’t think they came here for no reason at all. Among those who came here, there might have been those whose lives were saved thanks to you, Instructor.”
“Even if it wasn’t you, your blood relatives may have received help.”
There were students who tried to cheer him up by giving him reasonable reasons, but Lee Han just snorted.
“Are the guys who know how to be grateful just coming to my class or trespassing on my house? Is that how they express gratitude these days? It’s really funny.”
“… … .”
“Or am I behind the times?”
“Ahem.”
At this point I had nothing to say.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is completely thoughtless.
“… Just for your information, what did you do with the trespassers?”
“Rather than asking how you did it, wouldn’t it be better to ask how you ‘handled’ it?”
“… … .”
…let’s stop asking.
“-Can I ask you a question?”
Since it was only four days since the terrorist attack, they were curious and asked many questions.
Anyway, maybe because I was young, I couldn’t control my curiosity.
But then the guy who had been quiet the whole time asked a question.
“The new cadet who transferred in, is that the cadet who scattered a strange dark energy from the sky the day before?”
“…hmm.”
I was wondering why no one was curious, but finally, someone showed up and showed interest in the new transfer student.
Well, he was a bit of a bother.
The northern returner gave an intense gaze to (Sang) Tae-chang, who was using the skill.
He said he still remembers the thousand-flowered umbrella that decorated the sky.
“I, I, I…”
He broke out in a cold sweat, feeling overwhelmed by the intense gaze.
He’s the guy who says that getting along with others is the hardest, but when he gets attention from the person who he finds the most burdensome, he can’t even speak properly.
Lee Han decided to help the transfer student who was starting to cry.
You finally scouted him, so you can’t ruin his image from day one, right?
Lee Han warned ‘affectionately’.
“Blackie. Everything else is fine, but take those annoying eyes off of you. I can get ink out of those black pupils.”
“… … .”
“If the assistant candidate I brought with me runs away, what I just said won’t be a joke, haha.”
“… I don’t understand why you say the word ‘kill’ so kindly.”
“Kill me? When did I ever say that?”
“That’s what it sounded like to my ears.”
Only then did the black one, or rather Roen, look away.
Because I had no intention of talking back to a knight who dared fight on equal terms with the Demon King.
And above all… .
“If there’s anything to correct, I was just asking the question to express my gratitude. Thanks to the bombs pouring down from the air, there were no casualties.”
A needle that resembles flower petals falling from the sky.
When that needle fell across the sky, a large number of monsters were annihilated, and a miraculous phenomenon occurred where those who were injured or had lost stamina regained their strength.
“I was the one in charge that day, in place of the former instructor. As the person in charge, I have a duty to express my gratitude, so I just wanted to ask for a response. … So, I will tell you in advance. If you are the one who scattered the secret, I pay you my respects. I will swear on Lionel’s name that this debt will be repaid.”
Although the burdensome gaze was still given, the atmosphere was different from before.
Respect for the timid was expressed, along with heartfelt gratitude and recognition.
How could a man not feel his heart warm when he was recognized with such respect and reverence?
The timid guy also blushed and lowered his head.
In reality, his identity had already been revealed, but Lee Han was not a worthless adult who would criticize his disciple for something like this.
‘You little black bastard, you’re so good at talking nonsense, you know, like you’re a noble.’
There is power in a voice that is full of sincerity toward the other person, even if it is slurred.
In that guy’s case, it was especially intense.
‘anyhow.’
Every once in a while, he shows off his extraordinary side.
Lee Han felt satisfied as he confirmed that an atmosphere was being created in which the timid guy could fit in well…
“And instructor, this may be rude of me to ask this question, but can I, no… can we learn how to bloom with black magic?”
Hot!
“…huh?”
The moment the black guy’s second statement was made, hot interest gathered around him.
As if Sosim was the appetizer and I was the main dish.
“…these.”
Lee Han was shocked.
I raised him like a sage, but…
‘Are you trying to change to plum blossom inspection?’
His brow furrowed.
‘When it comes to the Taesanbukdoo of the martial arts world, Shaolin is said to be it, but it’s Hwasanpa…’
Anyway.
‘Those guys without foundation.’
The little martial artist in Lee Han’s heart wanted to shout out a scolding.
