62. Adelia Evangeline

***

ㅡThe infirmary in the academy.

After the practical lecture, it was time for lunch.

At lunchtime, when several cadets would take a break, there were now three people in the infirmary.

Adelia Evangeline, a female instructor in charge of the infirmary as a healer.

David is still lying in a hospital bed, unable to recover the consciousness.

Even Hancheonseong, who silently looked at David like that… .

“Hey… a cadet from Hancheonseong?”

“Yes. Instructor Adelia.”

“The condition of Cadet David, I repeat, is really good. Contrary to his appearance, there were no major wounds, only bruises. He will wake up soon.”

As Adelia cautiously spoke to her, the nature slowly nodded and accepted her.

It had already been a conversation between her and me several times.

I am really grateful for her consideration, but I am really okay with it now.

“Thank you for your words. But I’m going to watch him wake up.”

“…ha. Is it really okay not to eat? It wouldn’t be long before lunchtime.”

“Lunch is fine. My friend is in this state, and that’s why I eat alone.”

Not only that, I really didn’t have an appetite.

I just had no desire to eat anything.

Now that the match was over and it was lunch time, I went to the infirmary to check on David… Let’s see the guy lying down like this. Many thoughts filled my head at once.

And the biggest emotion among them was ‘regret’.

Regret that Gerard, who made David like this, should be punished more mercilessly.

Even if my perception of the cadets and Carly who watches me… seems like a piece of garbage like Gerard or changes a bit, I deeply regret that I should have properly punished that piece of garbage.

When I saw the guy who was still unconscious, I thought maybe I was thinking too rationally for nothing.

“……”

The car was passing time blankly looking at him like that.

Shrek.

Suddenly, Instructor Adelia raised her body.

“Isn’t the instructor in charge of Han Cheon-seong’s cadets Kali?”

“Yes. Instructor Carly is correct, but… .”

“Then I will tell you in advance. If you’re worried about your friend like that, it’s okay to be a little late. And let’s have lunch here with me. I’m going to tell my assistant to bring my share and the cadet’s share as well.”

I was stunned by Instructor Adelia’s words at times, and then I quickly shook my head.

“Oh, no. Instructor Adelia. I am really fine.”

“It’s okay, what’s okay? You look so worried. Lectures will tell you what to say. Don’t reject the cadets too much. okay?”

…I couldn’t say anything at the sight of her smiling softly as she spoke.

I’m here to see David’s condition. I had no intention of falling into lectures or anything like that.

However, I would expect to receive such an unexpected favor from the instructor.

shudder.

When I hesitated to answer, she smiled softly and left her infirmary, completely irresistible.

“ha… .”

Taking a small breath, I wanted to just accept it because it happened.

I couldn’t ignore the instructor’s consideration, and as soon as I had lunch, I thought that I should leave the infirmary when it was time for lecture.

Still, my gaze went back.

As he looked at David, who had lost consciousness as if he had fallen asleep, his tension seemed to be relieved a little.

Then the words that were inside leaked out.

“…really. Why did you come in the first place and become like this?”

It would have been enough just to watch me face Gerard.

All of a sudden, I remembered David, who stopped me from getting up at Gerrard’s quarrel last week.

It was obviously David who told me to be patient because there would be an opportunity in the actual battle.

But actually. He couldn’t stand it, and he started battling ahead of me, so it was like this.

The guy who said he was nervous even this morning. I didn’t know what kind of confidence I came out with in the first place.

“Are you the type to hold back your emotions?”

The last few days I was angry at Gerard’s provocations, but maybe it was a feeling that was common to David.

Even if it was David, it wouldn’t have sounded pleasant.

Still, he looked relatively calm, so I wondered if he was listening through one ear, but looking at his appearance today, it wasn’t at all.

Wouldn’t it be more accurate to say that David suppressed his emotions more than me?

“…”

There are times when I feel like I should have tightened up Gerrard more. Still, I thought I was lucky that David didn’t have any problems.

‘…because I can create another chance next time.’

At that time, I wanted to help even with training so that David could punish Gerard himself.

Dumble… .

Then I looked at my hand.

Now that Adelia left and relaxed, my hands were trembling beyond my will.

ㅡ[pokes one point and twists it]

The aftermath of unfolding it, which had not yet reached the skill level, appeared larger than I expected. As much as you can feel the load on your body.

When Instructor Adelaide was present, she restrained her body and didn’t show it, but… .

“You mustn’t overdo it.”

It wasn’t a fully awakened skill, but something imperfect might have some risk in using it.

I don’t know if a bigger load than now is coming on my body… .

how long have you waited

shudder.

When I turned my head to the sound of the door opening, I could see Instructor Adelaide again.

And a woman of the same age as me who follows her.

Curiously, both of them had emerald-colored hair, and while Adelia gave her a warm feeling with her warm impression, the woman who seemed to be her assistant was rather cold.

I immediately got up and handed the tray my assistant was holding.

“thanks.”

“no.”

She shook her head at the words of the woman who appeared to be her assistant and set the tray down on the nearby table.

The meals for the three were included, and it was amazing that I was being treated like this even when I looked at it for a moment.

“Cadet Han Cheon-seong. Because I told Instructor Carly. Don’t worry, just relax.”

“…thank you. Instructor Adelia.”

“What are you thankful for? It’s just that I’m watching the cadets. It felt so special, so I just did it in good faith.”

Adelia’s warm smile seemed to warm my heart a little.

“Oh, and Erpe. I’m just going to go back and sort out the things I need to do today.”

“Yes. Instructor.”

Watching the woman called Erpe disappear immediately, I went back to my seat and looked at David.

shudder.

Even with the sound of the infirmary door closing, I felt sorry for the guy who was still unconscious.

‘It would be great to wake up now and have lunch together.’

But he couldn’t wake David up. Because I think it’s best to naturally regain consciousness.

“Cadet Han Cheon-seong. Do you want to wake up David now?”

“…Oh, no.”

When she asked, as if reading her inside, she shook her head in embarrassment.

Is it funny to see me like that? I should have felt embarrassed at the sight of him smiling lightly.

“Even if you have the power of a healing trait, it doesn’t completely restore everything. It’s only because it increases the natural recovery ability to an extreme, so that visible wounds can be healed quickly. And it’s the same with consciousness. Because it’s best to let it naturally regain consciousness. Can’t you just try to wake up cadet David?”

“Yes. All right.”

That was the way I met her and her gaze without realizing it while answering.

Suddenly, he spoke softly as if he were hitting a child, so I couldn’t get used to it.

“Once, a cadet of Hancheonseong. We’ll have lunch first. I’ll take care of David’s cadet when he’s conscious later.”

“…Yes.”

At her words, I sat down on the table where the food had been put down a while ago.

And naturally, right across from her… Instructor Adelia sat her down, and seeing her made her feel strange.

‘Is this the second time?’

Coincidentally, the dinner party was held facing the instructor again.

“Is this the first time for Han Cheon-seong to eat with an instructor?”

When she asked, holding her spoon, she belatedly raised her spoon and shook her head.

“It’s not the first time I’ve had a meal with the instructor. I happened to have dinner with Instructor Carly the other day.”

“okay? So that’s a bit surprising. Considering Instructor Carly’s reputation, they say that they treat cadets very harshly… Having a meal together must have been very uncomfortable for Hancheonseong cadets as well. Still, cadet Han Cheon-seong, you don’t have to be so nervous right now. I don’t treat cadets as strict as Instructor Carly, so you can eat comfortably.”

Saying that, she smiled softly again, and her gaze turned to her without realizing it.

I wondered if it was the world in the novel, how could there be only beauty, but my gaze went unwittingly.

slurp… .

It was really natural to see Adelia leaning her upper body on the table to proceed with her meal.

However, when it has the effect of exaggerating certain areas… .

gulp.

As she swallowed her saliva, she immediately lowered her head.

It seemed that she couldn’t look at her any longer.

She was still thinking of David, so she was unaware of Instructor Adelaide… But when she proceeded to eat her face-to-face like this, she had no choice but to be conscious of her whether she liked it or not.

Even how destructive her body is… …

Sabjak.

The meal proceeded with a small sound of each other passing through the dishes.

slurp… .

As I sliced ​​the steak into smaller pieces with a knife, I realized that the food was also unusual.

‘This is the food in the instructor’s restaurant.’

Considering the food in front of me right now, the quality of the food could only be found in a place that only instructors can use, not in a cadet restaurant where cadets pay to buy.

As I felt the last time I went with Carly, the cadet restaurant wasn’t that bad, but there was a huge difference from the food served in the instructor’s cafeteria.

snap.

When I put a piece of steak in my mouth like that, I can feel the gravy. It was definitely delicious.

I didn’t have an appetite, but I had no idea how delicious the meat would be if it tasted so good.

“…”

“…”

As she gently raised her head like that, her eyes met like a coincidence.

I blinked for a moment and couldn’t understand.

‘Why is she looking at me?’

No, because we are facing each other now. It’s not strange to look at. When Adelia looked at me with strange eyes, she couldn’t understand what she meant for a moment.

“The food is… so delicious.”

Just in case, when I spit out her review of her food, Adelia smiled so brightly for a moment that I was even more stunned.

“Yes. The food is delicious, isn’t it?”

“…yes. Do you think this is food from the instructor’s restaurant?”

“Right. I also want to serve these kinds of food to other cadets as well. I seldom get a chance to do that. Taking other cadets to the instructor’s cafeteria is something other instructors or cadets see, so it’s a little bit… I think that delicious food like this should be enjoyed by more people.”

As if she was really sorry, she said her words, and she nodded her head in wonder.

‘Are you a foodie?’

Even with that thought, I could see that Adelia had a very kind heart.

As a healer, she was in charge of the infirmary, and it was not unusual for her to express her favours to the cadets without hesitation.

“Cadet Han Cheon-seong. Then try this one too. This cheese is also really good.”

Then, all of a sudden, she cuts a piece of cheese from her plate and hands it to me.

“…”

As I watched the cheese gradually approaching my mouth, for a moment I couldn’t say anything.

…I really didn’t open my mouth.

As Adelia handed her food, I saw her upper body slowly crushing the table.

It was a very instinctive reaction, so I had no idea what to do.

gulp.

Without realizing it, I swallowed my saliva and opened my mouth blankly.
