Became an Academy Spearman

Chapter 5

“…”

Inside the cafe, each other sipping their own glasses.

Even while looking at Glacier, he felt many doubts.

‘What kind of wind is blowing?’

Glecia’s approach that she had never expected.

Contrary to what I thought they would hate me, I was honestly surprised that he said he wanted to talk to me.

I was dumbfounded for a moment, then I answered.

It’s a big advantage if you can get acquainted with the unique traits. I have no reason to refuse.

By the way.

As for the person who first asked me to talk…

Glacier’s attitude was quite strange.

If you speak up, they accept it, but do you mean that you don’t reveal the purpose of the conversation?

The conversation just went on in a haphazard way.

good.

Putting the glass down, I opened my mouth first.

“Glacia. I’m guessing, but doesn’t it seem like our acceptance has already been confirmed?”

“I am sure I will pass.”

“Okay… Then what about the class assignment? I hope it turns out well.”

Glecia nodded her head as if she agreed with what I was saying.

“…”

As I watched her blue hair sway with a small nod, I felt that way.

Do I have to say that this woman is not good at speaking, or am I just that rude?

Even if it was an invitation screen, I felt like this was right.

It was nice to come and talk to you first.

‘Why are you acting so strangely?’

I didn’t know how long it took me to talk to him all the time and Glecia answered with a short answer.

If not, I think it’s been about 20 minutes now.

Because it looked like I was forced to bring Glecia.

“In my opinion, Glacier. Do you think you can go to class A? It’s unusual for the examiners to show interest in you.”

As we continued to talk about the academy, which is a common topic, there was a reaction itself.

“That’s what I think too.”

…No, over there.

If you stop talking like that, the conversation won’t continue.

Glecia naturally sips her glass, and I wondered if it was the right thing to want to talk to me.

Still, I kept talking.

“I don’t think I’ll be assigned to class A like you, but I wish I could get into class B.”

The possibility that I will be in the same class as Glacia is extremely low. No, it was safe to say that it was not.

Still, I really wanted to be assigned to class B.

Class B has a lot of benefits that you need to enter.

“…Class B?”

When Glecia tilted her head in response to my words, I replied with an awkward smile.

“Ahaha. Glacia Do you think I’m too much of a B-class?”

“yes.”

It’s really sad to hear people say ‘yes’ outright… .

Glecia’s attitude that she would go to a lower class in front of her face hardened her mind a bit, but she did not express it.

Contrary to his heart, he smiled and opened his mouth.

“Even if it’s a C-class, it’s not bad… it’s not. If you work hard, you can move up to a higher class.”

As I continued to speak, Glecia looked at me softly and nodded.

“The C-Class still probably won’t have a 3rd level attribute.”

“Yeah… I guess.”

I tried to reply if I was calling that comfort now, but I swallowed the words.

i have to be patient

People with higher traits than me would have been everywhere even if they went to the academy.

Rare, which is just one tier up. And the next level, Unique. And even the legendary rating of Leonhard, the protagonist of this novel… .

So, Glacier’s attitude was particularly problematic in terms of personality.

In this world, it is natural that people with high traits tend to look down on people with traits lower than themselves.

There were some boring comments from the Grand Royal Academy.

‘The rank of a trait indicates its status within the academy.’

In a world where the rank of a trait determines life, a high trait grade is like a separate status.

From the moment I became an adult in the first place, it was decided by the world.

-Your value is like this.

By the way, the main character, Leonhard, has a good heart and doesn’t discriminate against people with the following characteristics… .

Glecia’s appearance now is the average of most of the cadets I will face in the future. Or it could be below average

“…”

Even Glecia, who was looking at me right now, didn’t seem to have any intention of hiding the sign that she was above me.

And it was me who was in a hurry right now, I couldn’t be indifferent to Glecia.

“Agar Castle.”

“uh. Glacier.”

Then, when Glecia called me first, I answered with a smile.

“I’m a little curious, but… why do you want to go to the academy?”

“…What?”

“Your trait is your spear. It’s common grade. I’m not asking you about the mourning. I’m genuinely curious.”

He spoke in a serious voice out of nowhere, but for a moment he was speechless.

Even as she met Glacia’s eyes, it was a very… strange gaze.

Rather than look down on me. I felt the innocence of asking because I was really curious.

He expressed curiosity as if he did not genuinely understand me…

Still, I kept my composure.

Ever since I realized that my characteristic is a common spear. Because I expected this conversation.

“Glacia. I know my talent rating is not good. That means… I don’t want to give up on the academy and live a normal life.”

…and spoke as calmly as possible.

It was the first time I heard someone say, ‘Your trait is trash’, but I didn’t want to show that it was bad.

Then I felt like I was losing more.

“I don’t want to live a normal life… is that the only reason?”

“That’s all. Is my answer strange?”

“To be honest, I don’t quite understand. There must be people in the academy who have higher traits than me, not just you. To be honest, if you go to the academy as a common, you won’t be treated that well.”

When Glecia, who had only given a short answer before, revealed her intentions, she paused for a moment.

…what am I supposed to answer to make this event a good one?

That didn’t come out well.

I felt like I was going to spit out harsh words without my knowledge, so I bit my lip for a moment and forced myself to hold it in.

Pure curiosity without malice.

And I knew how painful it could sound to the listener.

After calming down, I was able to speak again.

“Before I answer, Glesia. Is there any reason why I shouldn’t go to the academy?”

“…is there any reason not to go?”

“okay. It wouldn’t be a much better life if I said I didn’t go to the academy. Because of the nature of the spear, it’s hard to get good treatment anywhere.”

I asked back.

There’s no reason not to go.

If I didn’t go to the academy anyway, I had no future.

The moment I don’t go to the academy, my life ends with that.

＜Grand Royal Academy＞

This novel I came in has ‘academy’ in the title, so the main events take place at the academy.

A world that values the academy that much.

Those who do not enter the academy are treated harshly.

At the very least, if my character was a production job or a non-combat type, I might have seriously given up on the academy.

However, the trait I received was ‘spear magic’, so none of that meant anything.

Among the attributes related to battle, the most extreme attribute is the spear.

From the beginning, I had no options.

“That means. Are you going to the academy because you can’t be treated anywhere else?”

“…that doesn’t make any sense. The biggest thing is that I don’t want to live a normal life, and I think that even if I’m a common, I can see the light if I work hard. So I’m going to the academy.”

…of course.

In the worldview of the Grand Royal Academy that I know.

As a matter of fact, no one has ever seen the light of a spear.

However.

Even so, I couldn’t be more disappointed.

The only knowledge I know about this world is things related to the academy.

Because all the things I can use are related to the academy.

If I wasn’t going to spend the rest of my life doing chores at the inn, I had to somehow get into the academy.

“If you work hard, you will see the light… … .”

Seeing Glecia reciting exactly what I said, I frowned so much that I couldn’t hide it anymore.

Her voice was calm, though. Something… uncomfortable.

No matter how hard you try with spears, the limits are obvious. Because it sounded like there was no future.
