The Vampire Is an Academy Honor Student

Chapter 093. joining (2)

From noble mtl dot com

There have been so many events in the kingdom over the past few years, and there have been numerous changes along with them.

There was an attack on the princess, a large-scale subjugation of apostates, the birth of a saint from the kingdom, and the disclosure of the contents of the oracle.

And from this point on, the number of monsters appearing on the borders of the kingdom began to increase every year.

Sudden change of wires.

But the confusion wasn’t too great.

It was because the interior of the kingdom had already stabilized more than the frontlines had become difficult.

Of course, the numerous unit reorganizations and border reinforcements that occurred at this time were a big deal, but there was something else that was the most talked about for the academy cadets.

It is the recovery of Princess Iris Barten and her admission to the academy, which has been bothering the king for a long time.

At that time, the whole country was really excited that a miracle had happened.

In addition, the strange rumors following her also contributed to the topic.

Rumors had circulated that she was a sorceress, but it was only rumored that no one really knew about it.

‘Come to think of it… .’

The princess must have graduated this year too.

Because the general undergraduate course is a three-year course.

When I think about it, I can clearly feel the flow of time that I did not feel well in my own work.

The fact that you have already graduated.

‘… … .’

He licked his lips and lay down on his back.

At the sound, the person sitting quietly next to him turned his head slightly.

The eyes meet right away.

Are you sure you said your name was Fay?

He said.

“… Hey, you can go inside. This is a request.”

Then, he tapped the ceiling of the wagon he was sitting on with his buttocks.

It wasn’t even a request, but he was considerate to go inside and rest without being on guard outside, but he refused.

“I am fine.”

Being with three strangers.

In that case, it was much more convenient to work outside.

It’s a little uncomfortable, but since I’ve been like this for three days, I’ve gotten used to it, so it’s worth just staying there.

And if you’re inside in the first place, you’ll be uncomfortable too.

It wasn’t that they were separately commissioned, but they looked like a group from the beginning.

‘… Who is it really?’

He pondered for three days as to why the name Uriel was so familiar, but in the end he couldn’t think of anything.

However, while observing them for three days, there were a few things that I wanted to find strange.

It was their relationship.

It doesn’t seem like a normal relationship at all.

“stop! We will camp here today!”

Perhaps it was time for the day to get dark soon, so one of the merchants at the forefront shouted.

I gave up my thoughts for a moment and jumped under the wagon.

“I’ll get you some wood.”

“Ah, yes.”

They stayed together for three days, and the division of labor was done to some extent.

This side takes care of collecting firewood and washing dishes, which can be done alone.

Then, the other two male escorts set up a tent for camping, and Mr. Uriel cooks.

‘… … .’

And Miss Rob does nothing.

More precisely, it prevents the other side from doing anything.

I don’t know why either.

When we got enough firewood and went back, they were doing the same again this time.

“Oh, can I help you?”

Miss Rob, who was snooping around the bonfire, brought an onion and a green onion and asked Mr. Uriel.

It was an admirable offer, but Mr. Uriel sent her away after receiving only onions and green onions with a look on his face asking what he was saying.

“please. I will do it.”

“still… .”

“It’s really fine. To begin with, you still can’t hold a knife well, right?”

Ms. Rob looked around the other way with a sullen expression.

Soon after seeing that the tent was still a rodent, he grabbed a hammer and headed towards it, but this one was more.

I was frightened and snatched the hammer from her hand.

It’s so fast that it wouldn’t be strange if someone mistakenly thought it was a cursed doll, not a hammer.

In the end, she is rejected by everyone today and walks this way.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Then, he glanced at this side and squatted down at a slight distance away.

The atmosphere was just ‘Isn’t there anything you can do to help?’ He seemed to be asking, but no matter how unfamiliar he was, he could read the atmosphere enough.

I could tell from the reactions of the judges that I was a person who shouldn’t get my hands dirty, so I shook my head with a wry smile.

Then he thought as he trimmed the twigs of the firewood he had picked up.

‘What is it?’

I’m honestly very curious.

I didn’t ask anything on purpose because I thought it was just a week after seeing it anyway, but I didn’t know it would stimulate people’s curiosity this much.

So this time we had a meal together and talked for the first time.

“What are you doing?”

“… ?”

“I’m just curious. Seeing that you received a request together, it was like a mercenary party.”

They look into each other’s eyes for a moment, then reply with a sob.

“… yes what Something similar.”

“… aha.”

You wouldn’t know just by looking at it, but you could tell from the atmosphere that it was difficult to tell.

but.

If I had been able to tell you in the first place, I wouldn’t have surrounded myself with a robe like that outside.

So I put aside the things I couldn’t ask and asked something else.

“What are you doing on the front line? I don’t think it’s because of the request like I did.”

Looking at their clothes and armament, they look wealthy in their own way, but there is no reason to peddle to such a dangerous area unless there is a specific business.

The answer came back here.

“I have someone to meet.”

“… aha.”

The expression on Mr. Yuriel’s answer was vague. There is a glimpse of longing, anticipation, excitement and a little worry.

And since it was no different than the other three, I noticed one thing.

“Are they all the same?”

“yes. What about that one?”

“… I have someone to meet.”

Two years ago.

I once participated in a tournament held in the Empire as the representative of Altus Academy.

Although this was my first international competition, I was full of confidence.

Although there was no basis, I thought that the level of the imperial cadets was enough to deal with.

But it wasn’t.

As soon as the competition started, I realized how much of a frog I had been.

The empire was overflowing with talented people as much as the vast land mass, and I was just one of the many talented people in it.

A mediocre student with nothing special.

At that time, for the first time in my life, I quietly tasted frustration at the mid-level ranking.

… And, among the countless ducks who mistakenly thought they were swans.

I found a ‘real genius’.

That’s Roan Karziel.

Since he was a cadet from the same kingdom, I watched most of his matches, so I could clearly see it.

His personality (?) of fooling opponents in Dalian was enough to plant a distorted image of the kingdom, but it was hard for anyone who watched Dalian to question his skills.

with a beautiful sword.

movement without waste.

phenomenal physical abilities.

Insight to accurately grasp the opponent’s psychology and movement.

It was hard to believe that they were the same age, he had the appearance of the ideal knight I dreamed of.

I heard rumors that he was bedridden just a year ago, but how much innate talent is so great that he can show the appearance of one of the best in the world.

‘It’s Karziel.’

In the end, watching the victory, I felt a sense of identity as a cadet from the same kingdom, and at the same time, respect as a cadet aspiring to be a knight.

So it was even more shocking.

When I heard the news that the most genius cadet in the kingdom had suddenly dropped out.

Personally, this was more of a shock than the princess’ recovery.

for what reason

What is he missing?

I was expecting to see them again at the competition someday, so the shock and disappointment were doubled.

‘… Whoa.’

Well, being a noble, there might have been some circumstances.

I don’t know, but I’ve heard at first glance that bastards who are too good are out of sight.

‘… … .’

I turned my head away from regret and devoted myself to training with the humility he taught me in my heart.

In the meantime, there was news that I heard ahead of graduation.

The news that a new knight order was created in Karziel was exactly that.

I didn’t know who the leader was, but I was certain in my heart.

Phil is Roan.

Although there was no basis, I thought that there was no way a person with that level of talent would fade away so fleetingly.

I made my decision that day.

I will join your knights.

“In the end, it all seems like a reason?”

“Iknow, right.”

The people to meet will be different, but strangely, the reason was the same for all five.

After a few more conversations, I cleaned up the tableware and got ready for bed.

* * *

It rained in the middle, and although we faced several attacks from the monsters, the peddling continued smoothly.

It was because the skills of the escorts, who seemed to be similar in age, were considerably greater than expected.

ping… !

An arrow with mana flies.

For some reason, the arrows speeded up as the distance increased, and soon spread out so far that they could not be seen.

‘Is it a magic tool?’

… puck!

I could tell that I had been hit by the dull hitting sound that came a beat late.

I sighed in admiration.

I was also able to catch monsters, so that wasn’t the part that surprised me.

I couldn’t hold back my curiosity and asked.

“… Do you see that?”

“It looks blurry.”

“under… .”

Unspeakable sight and skill with a bow.

Most of them were dealt with only arrows from a distance, unless the number of monsters was extremely large.

It was the same today.

After changing the quiver several times, he immediately put down the bow.

and screaming downwards.

“it’s over! I think you got them all?”

“okay.”

Until now, most of them had been caught from a long distance, so there was little opportunity to check the skills of the other escorts, but I thought that their skills would be similar as long as they were in the same party.

‘… You look the same age as me.’

I had hardly ever seen a cadet of my age do as well as I did.

If he had a slightly more friendly personality, he might have applied for sparring.

anyway.

The journey went smoothly.

The attacks of demonic beasts in the middle of the night increased gradually as the days passed, but rather drastically decreased after they got closer to the front line.

It seemed to be the cause that the seeds of monsters and monsters dried up as they approached the concentration of troops.

a few days after that

After we reached our destination, we parted ways to find our way to each other.

“You worked hard.”

“yes.”

In the end, I couldn’t find out what they were doing, so I was left with curiosity.

‘… Shall we go?’

Watching them walk away, I headed towards the nearby guild building.

I had only heard that there was an Order of Knights here, but I didn’t know exactly where they were and what they were doing, so I went and asked where they were.

“The location is like this… . You should have gone to subdue the demons by now. You might as well go tomorrow.”

“Aha, thank you.”

Following that advice, I took a day off and went to the knights the next day.

“Whoa… .”

It was fine when I came, but as the time to take the entrance exam approached, my mouth was dry with tension.

Like this side, there were quite a few people around who came to take the entrance exam with swords.

And some of them were familiar.

‘uh?’

Those who accompanied me until yesterday. They were sitting in front of me.

Soon, he opened his eyes wide as if he had found the way.

“… … .”

“… … .”

When we are looking at each other with blinking eyes due to an amazing coincidence.

“Large!”

One of Karziel’s knights clears their eyes and says,

“I will start the entrance exam right away.”
