Chapter 57
Episode 57:
The faces of the teachers teaching class were very haggard.
While being tortured, the vice-principal revealed the names and charges of the teachers who had been asked to do the same.
As a result, countless teachers, along with their vice principals, were taken to the royal court.
About half of the entire academy left.
Naturally, the number of teachers available to teach the cadets decreased, and eventually three classes had to be merged.
As a result, teachers worked almost like they were overworked.
‘Because my colleagues were taken away.’
On top of that, I found out that a colleague I trusted had done something like that, so the mental shock is hard to describe.
Murmur.
More than 150 cadets gathered in a class that used to have only 50 to 60 students.
The noise and frustration grew bigger.
The good news was that the class was large enough to accommodate 150 people.
“This is different from our class.”
Mahol was able to take classes with me.
The class, which was designed to gather as many nobles as possible, was modified by the principal himself.
Commoners and nobles became mixed.
In addition, I don’t know if the principal did it on purpose, but I ended up in the same class as Mahol.
“What’s different?”
Mahol looked around the class like a country boy in the city.
It would have been a little embarrassing if he had done it alone.
I had to look around a bit because I was doing that for 3 hours.
But fortunately, the other commoners also had a similar reaction to Mahol, so they did not look at Mahol strangely.
but.
“and. “I’m in the same class as Raymond!”
“Look at those eyes. What is he thinking? Geniuses are different, right? “Aren’t you thinking about things like the efficiency of swordsmanship or how to use aurors?”
Most of the cadets’ eyes were focused on me.
He looked at me more openly than when I was at the training ground, or rather, when I was at the training ground.
There were many times when I felt burdened by the way they attached meaning to my every action.
“What’s different? “If that’s the case, you’re a mess.”
“Don’t stare too much. “We could be harmed for no reason.”
Of course, the views were not always favorable.
Most of them still looked at me hostilely.
In some ways, the rumor was truly amazing.
Even people who see me for the first time turn against me and make people take for granted that I am a fool.
They were afraid that I might harm them.
‘The good thing is that they don’t see me as incompetent…’
Originally, my tinnitus was incompetent bastard.
He is a fool, but because he is incompetent, he becomes an object of even more contempt.
But now, ‘incompetence’ has been removed from the incompetent idiot.
Because the results of this test proved that I am not incompetent.
A monster-like score of 96 points, a monster-like ability to hunt trolls, and a monster-like talent that showed off at the age of 18.
When the cadets saw me, they always looked at me like I was looking at a monster.
I just showed that I have the ability.
That actually had the opposite effect.
“Don’t make eye contact. “You could die.”
“Miss, why on earth does someone like that have such talent!”
“God like a dog! “What good is a bastard!”
There were people who were more hostile towards me because of my abilities.
I’m worried that I might harm them with my abilities.
People who would be jealous if I had the talent they should have had.
I didn’t like them at first.
They weren’t harming me directly, and there were too many of them to respond to them all.
More than anything.
‘bothered.’
Before, I would have retaliated against everyone who insulted me.
I must have stepped on you carefully to prevent you from moving your mouth.
But I didn’t want to do that anymore.
No, it was annoying.
I feel like the people who are jealous of me are so insignificant.
Rather, I felt like reacting to it would make me feel insignificant, so I left it alone.
But it seemed like they had confidence in my actions.
As I was walking down the hallway, I could see guys walking in front of me.
puck.
Are they ignoring me even though they saw me, or are they really not seeing me?
puck.
My shoulder collided with mine.
Usually in times like this, an apology is made.
And when he sees my face, he turns blue or lowers his head and apologizes as if his back is going to break.
But their reaction was something quite different.
“Ah…”
“What what!”
Although his body trembled at the cold look in my eyes, he faced me confidently.
It felt a little different seeing that.
Since coming to the academy, no one has challenged me so openly.
What’s more, even the vice-principal who was trying to get me to do some work smiled kindly in front of me.
But a cadet, not a teacher, is arguing with me.
This is true.
‘I feel dirty.’
I guess I held back a lot.
I see these guys installing things.
Have you not heard the rumor about me?
By now, what happened at the banquet would have started to spread around the Academy.
I remember that’s why he didn’t even touch me.
Are these guys doing it knowingly or do they really not know?
“why? what!”
“What are you going to do if you stare at me like that?”
Even though he is confident, his overly confident behavior makes me laugh.
This is absurd.
Are you forgetting that I am the son of Count Millennium?
Have I forgotten that I am a fool?
‘Whatever it is, I’m being ridiculous.’
How should I deal with these?
I stayed quiet for a while.
There are people who climb up like this without even knowing how grateful they are.
I quietly thought about how to deal with them.
But I think they had a strange misunderstanding about my actions.
Maybe they thought that I wouldn’t do them any harm if I stayed quiet.
“If I hit you on the shoulder, you don’t have to apologize!”
“What are you going to do with my shoulder! “Oh my gosh, people are dying!”
“Isn’t your shoulder broken?”
Now he started shouting at me openly.
Wow, how can someone be this stupid?
I looked at their clothes.
The clothes of commoners and nobles were similar, but there was one difference.
A small badge hanging on the chest.
Commoners’ ones are black, but nobles’ ones are colored.
The Baron is red, the Viscount is green, and the Earl is silver.
Their badges were red and black.
In short, one noble and two commoners.
He shouted so loudly that people gathered around him to see if he had learned anything about being the son of a nobleman.
I think I thought that if more people looked at me, I wouldn’t be able to act carelessly.
‘It’s stupid, but it’s too stupid.’
Know one, don’t know two.
An ordinary noble would naturally be conscious of the gaze of those around him.
When many eyes are focused on you, you may feel burdened.
But that’s a story from ‘normal’ times.
I am very, very far from that normal.
“what’s the matter?”
“uh? “That’s Raymond.”
One by one, cadets recognized me.
Before I knew it, the hallway was filled with cadets who came to watch.
The most fun thing in the world is watching a fight.
I ignored their gaze and extended my hand towards them.
“…!”
I reflexively trembled and grabbed the shoulder of the guy whose eyes were wide to avoid losing.
The cadet with the red badge’s eyes were shaking wildly at my touch.
“I think I broke my shoulder?”
I looked down at him and tightened my hands.
Wood clatter!
The sound of bones breaking is heard widely.
“Kwaaaak!”
It was too late for him to scream.
He screamed at me that it hurt and told me to take his hands off him.
I ignored that guy’s words and turned his bones into powder.
“Ugh… Ugh!”
“What are you doing now!”
“I broke my shoulder!”
Next to the moaning cadet, the other guys were embarrassed.
It was as if they had never thought that I would attack them.
“why? “They said your shoulder was broken, so we’re looking into it.”
I looked at them as if something was wrong.
Did you read life in my eyes? They made dumb noises and ran away, abandoning the baron’s self-control.
The guy who was left alone looked at me with nowhere to go.
He gave him a cold smile and clenched his fist.
“You should take a hit.”
He then swung his fist and cut his entire body.
After beating me like this, those who try to mess with me will disappear.
Screams filled the hallway until class started.
***
Classes were held in class in the morning and outdoors in the afternoon.
As the number of classes decreased, some cadets were unable to use their classes, so the students were divided into morning and afternoon classes.
I was satisfied with it.
Because the time I can swing the sword has increased.
With a scarecrow in front of him, he raised a wooden sword and swung it.
I practiced swordsmanship in pursuit of efficiency with what I thought was the most rational attitude.
Just like that.
He applied moderate force and struck only the vital points, thinking the scarecrow was an enemy.
How long was he swinging his sword like that?
“Over there…”
There was a group of people talking to me.
I looked back coldly, wondering if that guy was like a bunch of rag-tag bastards.
However, contrary to my expectations, they did not give me a bad feeling.
“Can I learn some swordplay?”
I blinked blankly at his actions as he closed his eyes tightly and lowered his head.
Did you say you wanted to learn swordsmanship now?
I picked my ears to see if I had heard something wrong.
But I didn’t hear or see it wrong.
However, his face and actions were very serious, even if he thought it was a joke.
“Swordsmanship?”
“Yes.”
His face was filled with a desire to learn swordsmanship from me.
This was my first time doing something like this, so I was dazed for a moment.
‘Commoner…’
black badge.
Broadly speaking, there are two categories of commoners.
Those who overcame the negative views of those waiting until graduation and commoners to work their way up the ranks.
The cadet in front of me did that.
The way I tried to do something reminded me of my past as a minor actor.
At that time, I practiced countless times because I wanted to do even a little better.
“Sure.”
Maybe that’s why I was glad to hear his request.
I gladly accepted and decided to watch his swordsmanship.
He was surprised and very happy because he didn’t think I would accept it.
While I was watching his swordsmanship, Ellis came to me.
Then the principal said he was looking for him and asked if he could go now.
When I looked at the teacher, he nodded as if the conversation was already over.
“go.”
The cadet who was being taught swordsmanship by me had already lost his stamina and collapsed.
Since I had nothing else to do here, I decided to follow her.
And there wasn’t much I could get from this place in the first place.
I thought it went well.
I already had something to say to the principal, but I was grateful that he called me first.
“Welcome.”
The principal welcomed me willingly, as usual.
It felt a little awkward for him because his smile when he was torturing him was similar to his current smile.
As I sat down, he poured me some tea and tried to tell me his business.
But even faster than that, his face hardened at the sound that came out of my mouth.
“Please skip the grade to the senior year.”
The principal was speechless at the request that the new student could not make.
