I Became an Academy Attack Helicopter

54 – Chapter 19. Codename Valkyrie – 2

– 55 –

I stood in front of the mirror.

Who told me the size of my clothes, the length that fits the body perfectly and the line that falls nicely.

When I wore a white Guards uniform and a high hat, I felt a little elevated.

“You are so cool, lady.”

Involuntarily, I became proud of the compliments from the maids and workers.

“By the way, are you really okay with pants?”

“After all, skirts are for decoration. And the pants are more comfortable.”

I wore a skirt because I didn’t want to stand out because it was the uniform of the military academy, but I didn’t have to wear a skirt because the basic uniform was pants.

“It must be hot in summer.”

“Well… ….”

I didn’t expect that.

I think a skirt would be cooler than pants in summer.

After thinking for a while holding a flared skirt with a yellow pattern on a white base, I decided to just put it in my bag and take it with me.

Still, Canael’s city is at a high altitude, so the wind will blow well and it will be cool, so you probably won’t have to wear it.

“Then I will go.”

He said hello to the craftsmen and got into the car.

I took off my long hat, put it on my leg, and put the two bags next to me.

“Erif. The Guards made an agreement to treat you as a guest, so if anyone mistakenly thinks you are a recruit, show them this token.”

The thing Armion gave before departure was a ring.

The seal of the Duke of Cruel in the past was engraved on the top.

“Unlike the Military Academy, the Guards are not thoroughly subordinated to the class society. Although our family is far away from power right now, we should be a duke for the sake of the founding of the country.”

Armion drove to the military academy.

As of yesterday, the analysis of my body was finally complete, so I decided to carry it with me from now on, unless it was a serious issue.

You never know what will happen in the Kingdom of Canael.

“Among those who serve in the Royal Guard, there are very few people from high-ranking families. Rather, there are more ordinary people and foreigners who are far from power.”

“Is it to prevent anti-regression or a coup?”

Armion came out of the rearview mirror and met his eyes.

“That’s right. In the two hundred years since the establishment of the kingdom, the king changed twice during his reign. Both were in their early days. Since then, the Guards have changed to a group loyal to the individual king rather than the royal family. And if the family held power, it would be difficult to become a guard.”

“Then am I not just ignoring even if I’m a duke?”

“It’s not like that. As long as our family remains as subjects of the kingdom, they will treat you with respect. Besides, if you’re a duke, you’re the highest rank among nobles, so even if you just show the ring, you’ll be treated with respect. The king must have given you a special order, so don’t worry.”

“By the way, there was an envoy sent to the Kingdom of Canael. Is the timing right?”

Armion, who arrived at the military academy, said while parking.

“No. Conversely. Thanks to you, I have an excuse to send an envoy.”

“What does that mean?”

Armion’s explanation continued on the way to the lab after getting out of the car.

“The situation is a bit complicated, to put it simply, our kingdom received help from the Kingdom of Canael during the last decade of the War, and since then, we have sent some weak troops to the request of the Kingdom of Canael. That way, Arumanan even came out on his own.”

Armion takes a deep breath.

He shook his head, saying that he had no face to see the soldiers of the Canael Kingdom who fought and died together in the war.

“Well, at that time, they made excuses that they were not in a situation to send regular troops due to the post-war treatment, but in fact, it was because they did not want to lose the troops they had preserved thanks to the help of the Kingdom of Canael. Since then, relations between the kingdoms have cooled. I want to use this incident as an opportunity to build friendly relations again.”

“Aha.”

It was said that the relationship deteriorated after roughly repaying the favor of the ally for help, and now they are going to hold hands again.

The Ten Years’ War was a fairly recent war, so we haven’t learned it in history classes yet.

This is true. I feel a little uncomfortable because I am the person on the side who did not repay the favor.

Anyway, it would be good for me if I could pay off all my debts and improve relations with the Kingdom of Canael.

Because Arumanan had to work together to purify the marks of demons and reclaim the spirit world.

“Miss Erif. Armion. Welcome.”

When I entered the laboratory, a clean body greeted me.

Until now, I spent a lot of time saying that it was a strategy and analysis, but it looked like it had been lubricated.

“Now the analysis is over, and the prototype is well underway.”

Armion nodded at the senior researcher’s words.

“I’ll see you after vacation.”

“Yes. We plan to fully equip safety devices from the second semester to first-year students so that they can practice.”

“Then the school will have to redesign the curriculum.”

“Even if it is not, I have told the principal.”

The two uncles got along surprisingly well and continued to talk.

“Oh, Miss Erif. Take this with you, just in case.”

The senior researcher gave me a spare pendant.

The color combination was slightly different to avoid confusion with what I’m wearing now.

“Thank you.”

In front of Armion, it’s a bit awkward to talk to a researcher.

“Then have a good trip.”

It seems that the story was told because it was on Curst’s side.

I left the military academy and went across the city to the royal palace.

The Royal Palace was located in a quiet place away from the downtown area.

Except for the huge south gate, all sides were blocked by high walls, and the length of the wall was so long that the end could not be seen.

Next to the main gate, as they approached the entrance to the car, the guards with spears stopped them.

“What did you come here for?”

He spoke kindly, but his eyes were sharp.

But when Armion, who was strong and possessed the dignity of a war hero, glanced at him, the young guards flinched.

“I was elected as the escort of the delegation to the Kingdom of Canael.”

The guard opened his mouth slightly to see if he had heard anything, shook his head and saw me sitting in the back seat.

“Who is this?”

“That’s right.”

“Enter.”

The door opened, and we were finally able to enter the palace.

Armion, who parked the car in the parking lot in front of him, looked around him with his eyes wet with emotion.

“It’s been 10 years already.”

“Have you been here before?”

“Then. After the Ten Years’ War, I gathered with my comrades at the royal palace to receive medals.”

Armion looked around him slowly as if he could see the scene at that time.

He carried one bag on his back, one in his left hand, and finally checked his outfit.

Armion took his hat out of his car and put it on.

He said, “I heard that they meet in the building you see over there. Bye.”

“Yes. I will go.”

Armion waved his hand a few times and drove out of the palace in his car.

People passing by looked at me with curious eyes.

With an awkward smile, I passed them and entered the building that Armion had informed me.

“Newcomers! What are you doing! Move quickly!”

The building was quite noisy from the entrance.

A group of young people who seemed to have just grown up were running around.

Everyone glanced at me once as they passed by the entrance.

The man who was chasing after him shouted loudly.

“After a while, the seniors escorting the delegation to the Kingdom of Canael will have a ceremony! Inspect it quickly!”

I didn’t even want to talk to those who looked busy, so I looked around and saw people gathered like me at the end of the hallway with their luggage.

They are the members of this escort.

The moment I set out to say hello,

“Hey, newbie. With what guts did you go to work now? Haven’t you unpacked your luggage yet?”

I just got caught on the back of the man who was threatening the newcomers.

Usually, I would have gotten caught up in embarrassment, but I have the seal of the Duke of Cruel.

I frantically escaped the man’s hand, and then poked the ring I was wearing in front of him with his ax eye open.

“What… ….”

When her fist suddenly came in front of her, the man, who was reflexively trying to subdue her, looked carefully at the pattern on my ring, then frowned and grabbed my arm and moved it to her side.

“It’s no use pushing things that look expensive. Hurry up, unpack and run!”

This guy, he doesn’t know anything about his family or anything.

I was in trouble because it was an unexpected situation, when I heard footsteps behind me.

“Salvio. What’s going on?”

The man who was having a snowball fight with me saluted with surprise.

When I turned around, a tall young man with horsehair hair was standing there.

“Captain! This rookie bastard moves like a slug on a late topic…….”

The man called the captain looked carefully at my face and tilted her head.

“Newbie? I’ve never had such a young rookie.”

This person might know.

She slowly extended her ringed fist to him.

The sound of Salvio swallowing his breath came from behind.

“What is this pattern?”

The captain opened his eyes slightly wide, then straightened his posture, placed a hand on his chest, and bowed his back.

“You are the daughter of the Duke of Cruel who is accompanying you this time. Excuse me. My name is Kaiden, the captain of the Royal Guard.”

“My name is Erif Cruel.”

She followed him in return with a similar motion, then turned her face and stuck out her tongue at Salvio, who had her mouth open and her chin pulled out.

I was escorted by Kaiden, joined the escort, briefly introduced myself, and mixed into a suitable place.

It’s been a long time since I’ve received the attention of people around me at once.

I thought I got used to being noticed while at school, but the adults’ perspectives are a little different.

Still, I was not scared and had a snowball fight one by one, shooting down the eyes, but the order to go was issued.

After exiting the building with a moderate attachment at the rear of the guard, I came back near the entrance to the royal palace after walking all the way.

“From here to the train station by car. Team 1 is in charge of escorting the delegation inside the car. From group 2 onwards, ride in different vehicles. And-“

The captain beckoned to me.

Ignoring the gathering gaze, he stepped forward, bowed his head and whispered quietly.

“You can ride in the mission’s vehicle with the cruiser Youngae. Please act together with the first group for the time being.”

“I see.”

When I returned to my seat, the captain looked around the escort and gave a final request.

“Let everyone act without mistakes. The captain of the escort is entrusted to Felix, the 1st team leader. Do you understand?”

“Yes!”

I was momentarily overwhelmed by the loud voice and modest posture.

In front of those who have worked hard on the rituals they have learned during the semester, it will look like a chick tap dancing.

After a while, a delegation of five people arrived.

The person who looked the tallest among them was a middle-aged man with a slightly sharp eyeglasses, but seeing her face, I felt a strange sense of dizziness.

But I couldn’t remember where I saw it.

Is it just because he looks like a civil servant extra A?

But when I got in the car with 1st group, the sense of dread was immediately revealed.

“Oh, you… ….”

The commander of the delegation spoke to him while changing his one-eyed glasses.

Of course, you must have heard about me in advance.

He lightly shook his head to say hello.

“Have you never seen me? In ‘The Excavation Team’.”

Looking at the excavation team stories, it seems like I’ve seen them not long after I came here.

After the test was over, I revived the brain cells that had stopped and looked into the past.

I remember seeing an outsider at the excavation team.

On the day I left there, there was a time when there were a lot of people.

“The last day?”

“Yes. You remember.”

I didn’t really remember, but I pretended to know.

“I often hear the news. I am glad that you are doing well.”

“Thank you.”

He didn’t seem like a bad person.

He must have been a very high-ranking person since he came to the excavation team and heard from me.

One of the members of the first group who listened to our conversation asked a question as if curiously.

“Minister of Foreign Affairs. Do you have any reason to treat this girl with respect?”

The man who asked the question looked at me suspiciously.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs. Isn’t he the highest ranking official in this country’s foreign affairs department?

The Minister of Foreign Affairs smiled and took off his one-eyed glasses and put them in his glasses shop.

“Respect and respect depend on my relationship with the other person rather than my age. He deserves it, so he is.”

From then on, the people in the escort recognized me as a new escort target.

In the car, on the train, when eating, when sleeping, when crossing the border.

The guards followed my every move.

The horse is a escort, effectively a watchdog.

After moving like that for two days, we finally arrived at the city of Canael Kingdom.

Zafir, the “Sapphire on the Cliff,” Closest to the floating islands among the few cities of the Canael Kingdom in the continent.

It was the place of this diplomatic meeting and the point of rendezvous with Valkyrie.
