lecture room.

“In dealing with mana, it is important to realize the reasoning due to the characteristics, but if you understand mana a little deeper, you can express mana more naturally and strongly… … .”

Now, after lunch, it’s time for an afternoon lecture. Carly’s voice echoed clearly throughout the classroom.

During the introduction to mana science lecture. I was listening to the lecture with concentration.

“…”

I suddenly looked at Carly while taking notes at an important part. She usually speaks from the podium, but sometimes her voice can be heard from close by as she walks inside the classroom.

Now standing at the church, Kali’s appearance was calmer than I thought. Even compared to the previous lecture, Kali’s coldness had decreased, and now the other cadets could even feel that they were breathing comfortably.

‘Have you not heard rumors about me?’

The rumors I heard from David in the morning, I thought that Carly would have heard them, too, but looking at her now, it didn’t seem like that.

When our eyes meet by chance. Her eyes looking at me were almost the same as before.

Seruk.

“…”

Suddenly, Carly meets my eyes with me. He paused for no reason, but lowered his gaze as if concentrating on writing.

Time passed quickly after that.

It flowed calmly and harmoniously, which was fortunate, but also seemed like I was overly conscious of her.

‘Well, no matter how rumors go around. I’m just a cadet.’

It was funny to think that Carly would react to me one by one.

“You worked hard listening to the lecture today. Let’s stop here for today.”

Hearing Carly’s calm voice telling the end, the cadets bowed their heads almost simultaneously to show their respect for the lecture.

Me too, was the same.

Squeak.

After that, as the cadets left their seats one by one, I felt relieved at the lighter expressions on their faces.

“What? Instructor Cali’s lecture today is very convenient.”

“I know.”

“Agar Castle. How are you feeling today?”

When David asked with a smile, it was as David said with an honest heart while laughing along.

because nothing happened I was just comfortable.

“You seem like you want something to happen to me?”

“Not at all~ it can’t be.”

Looking at David, who was trembling, he slowly got up. Even so, there was a reason to approach Carly today.

‘I was supposed to meet Karite on Saturday, but.’

For the time being, I was planning to put aside personal training and focus on the first episode, ‘Conditions of the Sacrifice’.

In order to do that, I had to tell Kali about the scheduled training in advance.

“David. You go first for the time being.”

“what. Do you have something to do?”

“I just have some personal circumstances.”

“Is that so? Then I go first.”

Seeing off David, who coolly left, I walked over to Carly, who was arranging the textbooks at the church.

that buck

I felt it while practicing yesterday, but my heart was quite complicated.

The moment I hold the spear, my mind is organized, but that was only at that time, and even while listening to the lecture today, various thoughts did not stop.

ㅡConditions of offerings.

Thinking of the apostle Leteia, he continued to devise a solution.

Now that people’s lives are at stake. Just because I didn’t know, it wasn’t something I had to stop there. I had to think more and think of a way.

It’s because you need to act a little more proactively and try harder to find out information.

At least I had to do the best I could.

that buck

That’s how I got to Kali’s front.

“Instructor Carly.”

“…uh. Cadet of Hancheonseong. What’s up?”

At my words, looking at Carly who raised her head from the textbook, I cautiously opened my mouth.

“Anyway, do you have time later?”

“hour? As for training, it was definitely tomorrow’s appointment. Do you want to practice today?”

“Not that. It is because I want to talk with the instructor about my personal matter.”

“Personal things… .”

“Yes. I would like to ask you to spare a little time if possible.”

I asked in a polite tone.

I didn’t know if she had heard the rumors about me or not. But even aside from that, I needed to look as good as possible for Carly.

The car looked at her with a little nervousness.

Carly nodded calmly.

“OK got it. I don’t know what’s going on, but if Cadet Han Chun-seong says so… let’s just sort this out and move together.”

“Yes.”

Waiting for Carly to sort things out for a while.

I could move with her.

…

It’s been awhile to see the golden water thread that reads ‘Kali Ishtar’ written on the nameplate.

clap.

Carly lifted the door without hesitation and stepped inside.

“Come right in.”

“Excuse me.”

When I entered the interior carefully, I was able to see a fairly sophisticated interior, although not very spacious.

Like Carly who likes the color red in the work, many furniture and props in the boudoir were also filled with red color, and it looked like a place where she works as an instructor.

Tabletops and dens, etc. I could see even a pile of documents piled up on the desk, but I was just curious as I kept my eyes on it.

“Sit on the couch, I’ll make you some tea.”

“…thank you.”

“no. What.”

When Carly smiled lightly and went to make tea like that, she sat down on the bright red sofa and untied the spear from her back.

Seruk.

While putting down the window on the other hand, I calmly took a breath.

First of all, the atmosphere so far is not bad. Carly didn’t seem to be in a bad mood right now.

Right now tomorrow’s training is also training, but it was necessary to ask about Leteia first.

Because you really don’t know.

good.

Carly, who had put a teacup on the tray, smiled lightly.

“It’s because I only drink black tea. Is tea okay?”

“Yes. I like tea too.”

“Then I’m glad.”

Seruk, as if it were my share, offered the cup to him, and he carefully accepted it.

It’s a while to feel the subtle scent of black tea. Carly asked right away, tipping her teacup.

“So what do you have to say to me personally? You look pretty serious.”

“…You might think it was a sudden statement. I think the instructor would know.”

“What can I know?”

“Yes. It’s about the apostle.”

He was cautious even as he spoke.

ㅡ Apostle.

A monster classified as a super-dangerous species that officers who stand on the battlefield to defend the borders of the current empire usually face.

It was such a dangerous existence that if anyone other than them faced the apostle, it would be considered dead in a hundred out of a hundred.

“…”

Carly, who hesitated for a moment at my words, looked at me curiously.

“Sadora. okay. you may be wondering You can ask.”

When Carly answered calmly, I went straight to the point.

“Do you know anything about the Apostle of Sacrifice…?”

In the work, there were almost no scenes specifically mentioning Leteia.

“…Apostle of Sacrifice?”

“Yes. I understand that the nickname attached to the apostle is ‘sacrificial offering’.”

“Wait a minute… Let me think about it for a moment. Nothing immediately comes to mind.”

Carly narrowed her eyes as she spoke, and I nodded slowly.

Expectations were low.

It would be best if they could get a clue about Leteia. Even if Carly replied that she didn’t know… that alone had some benefit.

Even in the story, it was not revealed that Karite was attacked by Leteia.

If Kali answered that she didn’t know, it could be seen as a time when Leteia wasn’t active in the other direction yet.

Simply ‘guessing’ and ‘confirming’ are similar, but they are distinctly different.

“……”

When Carly’s eyes lit up for a moment, I became nervous.

“Cadets of Hancheon Castle.”

“Yes. Instructor.”

“Before I answer, can you tell me why you suddenly brought up such a thing?”

When Carly asked with a serious expression, I was surprised inside.

‘Are there any clues about Leteia?’

I thought she would definitely answer that she didn’t know, but she didn’t look like that now.

Even so, I spit out the answer I thought of.

“Before entering the academy, I read about apostles in a literature. About the ruinous record created by the Apostle of Sacrifice.”

“Before entering the academy… .”

“Yes. I think Instructor Carly knows a little about me, but since I don’t have a family, I had to wander from place to place. And I happened to see it. How dangerous an apostle is. through the literature.”

As I spoke, there was an extreme sense of tension so that there would be no awkwardness in my words.

Everything I said was true once and for all.

From the absence of my family in this world, to the literature, it was one of the clues about Leteia mentioned in the story.

It was like literature that Leonhardt would come across later, but I know it. I don’t know where the literature is, but it was certain information.

“I don’t know where I saw that document. Certainly, the apostle of sacrifice is an apostle of existence. The documents Cadet Han Chun-seong came across seem to have been written down by some officer about the apostle.”

“Does Instructor Carly know more?”

“I know to some extent. Because I’ve met the Apostle of Sacrifice myself.”

Then I inadvertently blinked at the unexpected information.

‘Have you ever met Carly?’

No way… .

‘Is that possible?’

In the work, Leonhardt is the apostle of sacrifice. When looking for clues about Leteia, of course, he seeks advice from Kali as well.

She was like a veteran officer who had been on the battlefield for many years as an axis of the Empire.

However, in the middle of the story, as if passing by briefly, Carly explained that he was not very helpful and just moved on.

…But now Carly took a completely different attitude toward me.

“I think it’s a good attitude that Cadet Han Chun-seong is interested in the apostle right now, and it’s a very commendable attitude with the attitude of a cadet who dreams of becoming an officer in the future. Are you okay?”

A smiling Carly spoke softly, and I nodded in my daze.

“Yes. it’s okay. It would be of great help to me if you could elaborate.”

Even as I answered, my heart felt cold.

ㅡGrand Royal Academy.

‘This world… .’

before I even existed in this world.

Maybe it’s been a while already.
