Became an Academy Spearman

Chapter 85

85. The important thing is an unbreakable heart

***

When my heart felt a great confusion, time passed strangely quickly.

I didn’t even feel how I had passed other people’s words or dealt with it, and time seemed to flow quickly as if it wouldn’t give me more time.

“…”

It’s long past lunch now.

I was no longer sitting in a hospital bed. Quite the opposite.

softly.

With light breathing, Milia, who was asleep in the hospital bed, caught my eye. His lightly disheveled black hair stared blankly at the gesture of his head.

Seeing it made me feel it again.

‘…It must be true that you stayed up all night by my side.’

There was a commotion in the infirmary due to Luna who came around lunchtime. Millia was able to soothe Luna, who was very worried about her, and send her back. After that, Millia fell asleep as if exhausted.

And so naturally.

I came to watch over the sleeping Millia.

Just like she did last night, I felt it was right for me to stay by her side even a little bit. In addition, going back to the afternoon lecture alone was not possible considering Milia’s position afterwards.

“Cadets of Han Chun-seong. What are you thinking?”

“…yes?”

“Aren’t you just thinking stupid things when you see Cadet Milia sleeping?”

Then, when Adelia played a prank on him, he was no longer as embarrassed as he had been the first time.

“Instructor. How could I even think of that?”

“okay? Cadet Han Chun-seong was staring at me too closely. I thought you had other black feelings.”

Even the sight of Instructor Adelia speaking with a grin on her face caught the attention of those words.

‘It’s a black heart.’

To be honest, I couldn’t say that I didn’t even have a dark heart.

Milia, who I thought was my ideal type from the first time I saw her, was showing me a defenseless side like this. It’s not that I don’t pay attention to her.

“What can I say? It’s nice to see them keeping their seats as if they were worried about each other.”

“Rather than worrying… it seems like something I should do.”

“Of course… It doesn’t seem obvious to me at all, but I’m just saying that even Cadet Han Chun-seong’s answers like this are nice to see.”

He smiled at Adelia’s words and looked at Milia again.

“That’s why there is also a student named Han Chun-seong. I’ve been back to the academy for over a year now, but I think I’ve seen a lot of cadets during that time. The cadets who live fiercely with different values and different thoughts.”

“…A student who lives fiercely?”

While replying blankly, he did not neglect Adelia’s voice.

“yes. Yes. Everyone is so obsessed with competition these days, and it’s really rare to see cadets who care for each other just because they’re conscious of each other. Of course, it’s not like there aren’t any cadets like that, but everyone feels like they can’t afford it. Like I have an obsessive compulsion to somehow outperform the other cadets and get high grades. In fact… this academy continues to discriminate against cadets. Perhaps, if it is natural, it can be said that it is a natural result.”

I was able to hear her voice that continued quietly without saying anything.

Of course, a cadet’s effort is said to be an individual’s ability, but Groa was whipping the cadet hard in various places and forcing them to work hard.

If you don’t want to fall behind other cadets, you have to work hard and if you want to be treated well, you have to develop your characteristics, and because of that, you discriminate against almost everything.

In simple terms, even food is priced, and everything is strictly classified according to class, such as the environment of the dormitory where you live and other facilities such as training grounds, and even instructors often treat cadets differently depending on their grades.

If it’s natural, it’s a natural result. As Adelia said, it seemed like they were pushing each other too hard to compete with each other.

“Therefore, there are cadets who came to worry about their injured friends, but I have never seen a cadet who gave up even giving up lectures and stayed up all night. That’s why the more I see the two cadets, the more curious I am about the cadets of Han Chun-seong and Milia.”

A faint smile leaked out at her words full of good intentions.

‘I’m not doing anything special.’

It seemed like I looked good to Adelia. Then maybe my actions were not natural.

Even within the same class, only a few people can advance to the next class in a year. Even the number of people going to the next class is completely limited to 3 people.

It’s like competing with each other. However, if even that is judged by the examiner to be below the standard, they do not fill even 3 people at all, and that is the end.

Then… Milia came into my eyes in a daze.

“I don’t understand Milia a little bit.”

in a confused mind. I unintentionally expressed my heart.

“Are you a cadet in Millia?”

“Yeah… taking me to the infirmary would have been enough. Because you said you stayed by my side all night. I’m grateful for that, but I can’t understand it well.”

If you asked me if I was that close with Millia, I thought it was not.

I remember having a good conversation after I approached the other day. But after that, there was no meeting like this. It was just a casual exchange of greetings when passing by.

Rather, I focused on Luna. I focused on the characteristic of her Battle Cure, the healing characteristic that was later highly regarded and even called fraud.

That’s why I intentionally didn’t pay any attention to Milia. Even if she was my ideal type, I tried not to pay attention.

‘Yeah, because Luna doesn’t want me to get close to Millia.’

But now. When the situation came to this, I couldn’t help but pay attention.

Why did Milia… stay by my side all night? I felt a strange feeling at first, and even now I didn’t know how to look at Milia.

I know she showers me with favor and goodwill. But it was accepted that it was due to her character.

‘But can I really accept that he stayed by my side all night?’

That kept bothering me. If it’s not my mistake… .

Suddenly, the moment when Carly had left the place came to mind again.

ㅡExcuse me for a moment.

Having said that, Milia approached me without hesitation.

—-It doesn’t mean anything else… It’s just that Han Chun-seong was bothered by your disheveled hair, was it unpleasant by any chance?

After that, even her blushing cheeks as if she was embarrassed as she removed her hand from me.

“……”

He swallowed the sigh that rose to the tip of his throat.

It seemed to shake my heart over and over again. No matter how hard I made up my mind, someone else kept showing me things that would shake my heart, and it was as if they were testing me.

Even if I try not to misunderstand, it seems like the situation is made that way.

“…”

Then, when there was no answer from Adelia, I cautiously turned my head.

When our eyes met, he made a slightly surprised expression, but I wondered if I had done something surprising.

“Instructor Adelia?”

“ah… . why?”

“You suddenly didn’t say anything. Did I say anything strange?”

I asked Adelia how she would feel when seeing Millia’s actions like this from someone else’s point of view.

“no. Rather than saying it strangely, I also thought a little more about the Milia cadets.”

“If so. Instructor, what do you think of Millia’s actions? How should I take it?”

blankly asking I didn’t want to rush through this situation.

If only I hadn’t been mistaken and my mind was shaking. So maybe we can say that Millia really has feelings for me this time. I wanted to check.

“I think I can… I can.”

“It can be… .”

However, I was speechless at the answer that was different from what I thought. Right after that, Adelia smiled.

“Cadet Millia encountered Cadet Han Chun-seong, who lost consciousness while walking in the park at night. Seeing that they were talking after coming to their senses, it seems like they’ve already become close… Then they said that they might have stayed up all night worrying about each other. And the character of the Milia cadet that I looked at was a very kind-hearted cadet.”

At the words that followed, I just blankly nodded.

To be honest, I expected Adelia to tell me that Millia had a crush on me, or that she had feelings for me.

Then… I can change my attitude towards Millia in the future.

“Cadets of Han Chun-seong. Be honest. You expected me to reply that cadet Millia was selfless right now, right?”

I couldn’t help but laugh awkwardly at her words that hit the point. embarrassment and shame. Shame crossed my mind, but I couldn’t deny it.

“…Yes. I was honestly looking forward to it.”

“I think Cadet Han Chun-seong can do that as well. He said that such a cute and pretty cadet in the same class stayed up all night worrying about himself. Of course you can think so.”

Adelia’s words felt like contradictions.

‘Then why… .’

Did Adelia give me an answer completely different from what I expected?

It’s certainly not without reason to say that Milia’s good personality and the situation matched it. On the contrary, you could have said that I have feelings.

“…”

As our eyes met, Adelia suddenly raised her hand.

I blinked blankly and looked at my hand, and it came right to me.

snap.

“…Instructor Adelia?”

“The real Han Chun-seong cadet is really… . With these expectant eyes Can you look at me so cutely?”

He grabbed my cheek and touched it, but I was dumbfounded. You’re so cute without end

“Anyway, I answered carefully and said that I could see it that way. If Cadet Chun-seong Han answered that Cadet Millia was selfish as he wished, Cadet Chun-seong Han’s eyes looked as if he were confessing to Cadet Millia. And my words may not be correct. If that’s the case, then Cadet Han Chun-seong and Cadet Millia will both be in big trouble, right?”

At Adelia’s words, I could feel how short my thoughts were.

I tried to completely lean on the opinions of others, even for a moment.

I had to think about the possibility that that opinion was not the correct answer, but I was about to take Adelia’s words straight for the moment.

“…sorry. Instructor.”

“no. Why is this something to apologize for? And I have such a cautious, second-thinking attitude of a cadet Han Tian-seong. I’m looking really good. So, even now, you are asking me for my opinion in such a cute way, right?”

Touch, touch, touch.

Even so, when she continued to touch my cheek, I accepted the action with an awkward smile.

…

Afterwards, the time to accept Adelia’s pranks and stay by Milia’s side continued. A cadet who was injured in the middle came to visit and Adelia was absent, but I did not leave Millia’s side.

After clearing my mind, I felt pure gratitude for Milia.

Before seeing her close to my ideal type and feeling a crush on her, I know how well-intentioned the various actions she showed me.

Seruk.

And after the afternoon lecture was over at 3:00 PM, I slowly got up.

“Are you going back now?”

“yes. Waiting for Milia to wake up is also a bit like that.”

…Milia may have kept her seat with unselfish, pure concern for me, but I didn’t think I could make up my mind as innocently as she did.

“Instructor Adelia. Thank you so much for today.”

“okay. And the cadet of Agar Castle. I’ll come back after being hurt next time. I mean, but can’t you lose consciousness like today? That surprises me too.”

He had to head to the training ground while carrying a spear on his back as he was accustomed to. Because I wasted too much of my time today.

“Certainly, a cadet of Han Chun-seong. Are you planning to practice today?”

“I won’t overdo it too much.”

“ha… . I’m really going to get really angry if you come back to the infirmary unconscious again. Are you prepared for that?”

I smiled as I looked at Adelia, who seemed unstoppable.

“If that happens again, please scold me really loudly then.”

“…Cadet Han Chun-seong. Is that the answer now?”

“I don’t have the confidence to say that I won’t do that again….”

I’ve been thinking about it all day today.

I thought a lot about Milia, but I can’t stop now that I have a clue about the skill beyond that.

That I have to go further.

“…….”
