Became an Academy Spearman

chapter 28



***

“Cadet Han Cheon-seong… by any chance, where did we meet?”

At Kali’s words, the accident of nature stopped for a moment.

Suddenly, the thought itself did not come to mind, as if my head had become a white sheet of paper.

‘How am I supposed to answer here?’

Now, this was not something that could be easily answered and moved on. The words I uttered… Those words meant so much to Carly.

But in reality, nothing came to mind in my mind that had turned into a blank sheet of paper.

“… … ..”

When I couldn’t say anything and I was dumbfounded.

Carly gently shook her head for a moment.

“Oh, sorry. What nonsense… I’ve never met. Hancheonseong cadets. Forget what I just said.”

“Yes. All right.”

When I answered awkwardly. Carly’s eyes clouded and she felt that she had clearly changed from before.

I’ve already… committed the irreversible.

Afterwards, during the mealtime between the two of them, there was only a small sound of the tableware passing, and only the meal continued in silence.

Suddenly the air feels heavy, awkward and uncomfortable.

When Carly showed an awkward and subdued atmosphere unlike her previous appearance, even nature could not speak to her willingly.

“…”

‘That word’ that I spit out unconsciously.

It was like a taboo for Carly now. And most of them were words they would never have said.

So, there would be no tolerance for the shock that Carly would have felt when she heard those words.

That means her past on the battlefield.

In a desperate situation, it was a habit of an unnamed person who ‘dead’ instead of Carly. And at the same time, it was the word that completely changed Kali.

It was a decisive moment for her, who had fallen into character supremacy in the past, to completely abandon her own thoughts, to emphasize effort and not despise people with low traits.

But now I It was just what the dead man had said in front of Kali.

That too, without a single Tosi mistake—.

“…”

Even now, the appearance of Kali, who is silently concentrating on her meal, felt foreign.

So I opened my mouth without realizing it.

“Instructor Carly.”

“…uh?”

Looking at Kali, who responded awkwardly unlike before, I felt that this meeting should not end like this.

‘As soon as the meal is over, I will break up with Carly.’

If this party ended like that, it was as if I had just hurt her.

The fact that we broke up with a wound that existed in Kali’s heart that no one had ever touched before. I didn’t like it.

I didn’t want to end my meeting with Carly like that.

“…”

Carly’s eyes, receiving my gaze, were trembling unlike before.

Even herself seemed to be confused by the fluctuations in her emotions. Still, she was facing me now as an instructor.

To pay attention to what I have to say.

“I was really grateful for the entrance exam.”

“Ah, at the entrance exam…? no, what I was just doing what I had to do.”

I smiled softly as I looked at Kali, who answered clearly and unnaturally.

And that moment. I calmly expressed my feelings.

“The words that Instructor Carly gave me during the entrance exams really helped me a lot. Even though I was facing reality, my heart wasn’t that strong. There was a stronger feeling of uncertainty as to whether or not I could move forward with a common trait.”

“…okay? Oh, it was. Then I’m happy.”

As I continued to mix taboo words with her, Carly’s eyes looking at me subsided even more.

She was now avoiding my gaze a little bit at all. I could see clearly in that attitude. Now that you are embarrassed by my words, you are trying to turn away from me.

and therefore,

I had to say more.

“Instructor Carly’s words to me at that time may not have been a big deal. But it really helped me a lot. The instructor’s words helped me a lot to face reality and move forward. The instructor’s words had a significant impact on the reason I was able to accept Dalian yesterday.”

He opened his mouth in a calm voice.

Now, looking at her like before, there was no excitement or excitement.

I’m just telling the truth as if I’m telling the truth.

And my words were sincere.

When I took the entrance exam, I was definitely trying to be confident. But it was only Kali who reacted to my actions. The other examiner didn’t even talk to me at all, as if he wasn’t interested.

So I was able to have more confidence because of Kali, and I had a high dream of being a B-class in the results of the entrance exam. Even after that, the self-esteem and confidence in my actions reminded me that I had been recognized by Carly.

Because it was the first time she took an interest in me. Because you acknowledged me.

No one had paid any attention to my characteristics before that, and no one had ever spoken of hard work.

That’s why the words that Carly gave me, without realizing it or not, how much power they gave me… .

“……”

Even after I said that, Carly only exhaled a small breath. No answer.

Because she can’t stop me now, and I can’t explain why. He seemed to choose to listen quietly.

Still, I felt it again.

How much of a shock was the ‘word’ that I brought out to Carly.

In fact, it was not at all that the nameless person was in a relationship with Carly, or that they were in a relationship with each other.

Carly was shocked to learn that the man had died because of her.

the man’s words. And the fact that he had sacrificed his life to save it was too much for her.

And I wanted to tell her that now.

There are people who gain strength from your words.

“So I feel confident that I can do it. Facing reality and moving forward. That way you can grow me. The words of the instructor who recognized me as the only person in such an important position were really helpful… So I also wanted to say thank you to the instructor.”

As I finished speaking, I smiled softly again.

At that moment, Carly showed a strange reaction to my words.

“…”

Slowly raising her head, she met her gaze. Still, it was clear to me that he paused for a moment.

What the nameless man who died on the battlefield to replace Kali had hoped for. The accident completely changed her values and made her focus on hard work. He came to look at the essence of a person without considering the high or low of the characteristics.

And now. I was talking to Kali like that.

Her words helped me move forward and gave me the confidence to face this reality.

After that, she completely changed her mind and behaved differently, but there were many cases where it was taken as a joke, saying that the one who has it is the effort.

And Carly is also aware of it.

But I didn’t think that Carly’s just being conscious and acting doesn’t mean much. It was believed that such actions and feelings have a proper meaning only if they reach others properly.

And I’m trying to answer that it touched me a little bit.

“… … .”

Looking at Carly, who was staring blankly at my words, I thought my words were over.

“Then, teacher. I’ll get up first. Thank you so much for the meal.”

As I finished speaking and got up from my seat, I felt strange.

Carly’s gaze on that day was still mysterious.

To the extent that it is mysterious whether she accepted my words well or not.

‘Maybe… was it presumptuous?’

I wonder if I could have closed the wounds in my heart that I had touched inadvertently… .

To be honest, I wasn’t.

However, belatedly, embarrassment filled my heart.

‘You spit out really unfamiliar words.’

As I thought of the words I had said to her, a smirk leaked out involuntarily.

He said things that didn’t suit me well.

jerk.

At that time, while passing by, he politely greeted the instructors he met and moved on.

“Come on, wait a minute. Hancheonseong Cadet!”

Suddenly, Carly’s voice was heard.

tuk.

So I had to stop walking.

***

curiosity.

and interest.

Even during the entrance exam, Carly’s feelings for agar was only that much.

The attribute is spear, and the rank is common without checking. By the way, you say you’ve reached level 3. It felt natural.

That the cadet with the unusual name of Han Cheon-seong must have put a lot of effort into it.

Even though it is a common trait, taking level 3 was a level that only a very small number of cadets who enter every year achieved it.

But after that, he didn’t pay much attention to the cadet.

But suddenly, I heard the news about Dalian, which was held on the day of the entrance ceremony.

The news that the chief cadet Leonhard and a cadet named Han Cheon-seong, whom he took the test, had a match.

…I was very upset when I first heard the news. Because it felt like a ‘dirty thing’ that high-class cadets usually do to lower-class cadets.

Every year at the academy, such dirty things always happened.

A higher-class cadet provokes a lower-class cadet, and the lower-class cadet cannot withstand the provocation and applies for a match.

And as always, the result of the subsequent dirty battle is… .

It ends in a disastrous defeat for the lower cadets.

After that, ridicule and contempt poured down on the lower cadets. Even the miserable feelings the cadets must have felt after the battle.

Do you know how wrong all of that is?

Just by hearing the news of Dalian, I could feel it all at once.

But after that, I didn’t know how surprised I was that the result of Dalian was a draw.

I was able to admit it only after repeatedly checking the truth and hearing the details of Dalian by visiting the instructor in charge of the training.

And I thought blankly.

ㅡThere are cadets who have seen the fruits of their sincere efforts.

The three letters of the unusual name ‘Hancheonseong’ came to mind again, and I went to the instructor in charge of the C1 class and asked me to change the class at all.

And finally, I was forced to change the C1 class to the instructor in charge.

after. He gave the first lecture in person, faced the cadets, and continued eating until there were several conversations.

I was even more surprised by the cadet Han Cheon-seong.

Even in my short life of 25 years old, I wonder how many times I’ve been so surprised… … .

There was nothing like the other cadets in terms of values, depth of thought, ability to act, and determination that were completely different from other cadets.

So, I had to be shocked even more by the ‘word’ that I happened to hear.

-You have to face reality to move forward.

‘how.’

How…how could a cadet Han Cheon-seong be able to say that?

Could this cadet be able to put into his mouth the characteristic words that the man had uttered as a habit?

There was nothing wrong with Toshi.

After that, how I acted and thought, I had no idea.

‘Cause I’m crazy

Hearing such unexpected words, my heart was greatly shaken. It was not easy to even listen to the cadets while maintaining his composure.

And the words of the cadets that followed gradually reached my ears.

Even though I felt so confused and shocked, strangely, the words of the Hancheonseong cadets were conveyed as if they were whispering in my ear.

ㅡSo I gained confidence that I could do it. Facing reality and moving forward. That way you can grow me. The words of the instructor who recognized me in such a good place were a great help… So I also wanted to say thank you to the instructor.

Without realizing it, I made eye contact with him.

I know how confused and disorganized I am right now. I couldn’t help but make eye contact.

“Then, teacher. I’ll get up first. Thank you for serving us like this.”

Then the cadet’s calm voice was finally heard.

I guess I’m not showing off that good. The cadet smiled faintly and stood up.

And staring blankly at the back of the departing cadet.

Something… something was strange.

I feel like I can’t let the Hancheonseong cadets go like this.

… … .

“Come on, wait a minute. Hancheonseong Cadet!”

Without realizing it, I opened my mouth.
