How to Live As a Returnee Munchkin Swordsman

8 – Akina Crowlin (1)

Tristan Hero Academy Swordsmanship Department.

It is the most popular department among the numerous departments within the military academy, and the department that produced the most high-ranking heroes and talented individuals in the kingdom.

It is a place that can be considered Tristan’s representative school in name and reality.

There is a fairly simple reason why the Faculty of Swordsmanship was able to gain such a great reputation.

-The fate of the hero is most often that of the ＜swordsman＞!

As the number of samples increases, the number of parent entities naturally increases.

Among the heroes, there were an overwhelming number of heroes who were chosen for the fate of ＜swordsman＞, so naturally, the department of swordsmanship that taught this was bound to become very popular.

but.

Nevertheless, the reason why Tristan’s Faculty of Swordsmanship was highly evaluated was because of the fact that ‘the level of the instructors was high’.

There were many famous instructors in the Tristan Swordsmanship Department.

Instructor Jackson who killed the beast ‘Saber-toothed Tiger of the Borderline’, Instructor Ted who was born at the fourth fork in the ＜Iron Wall Knight＞, and Instructor Isaac Clenn who is said to have raised dozens of high-ranking heroes himself… .

Regardless of whether they are nobles or commoners, there are many talented people who are admired just by their name.

Because there were so many excellent instructors as instructors, all the heroes who were chosen for the fate of ＜Prosecutor＞ hoped to enter the Tristan Swordsmanship Department.

This was true not only in the kingdom of Klepe, but throughout the entire continent.

“Instructor Akina, have you come out!”

“Good morning, Instructor Akina.”

And no matter what group you go to, there is always a swan that stands out the most.

Seeing the red-haired woman in the faculty room, the swordsmanship faculty instructors all greeted her.

Akina Crowfly.

The eldest daughter of the Duke of Crowfly, and a hero who played a major role in the Great War five years ago.

She was a genius who opened the ‘fourth fork in the road’ at a young age of less than thirty, and a swordsman who succeeded in ‘accidentally’ acquiring the ＜Crowfly Swordsmanship＞, which is said to be the best swordsmanship in the kingdom.

‘Coincidence’ is information that can only be obtained by handling the skill or ability close to perfection.

In other words, it could be seen that Akina was a sword master who had already mastered ＜Crowfly Sword＞.

-Akina is a genius swordsman who will become the star of the kingdom!

star of the kingdom.

It was a word used by the rich people of the continent to evaluate her.

Since he was a cadet at the military academy, he showed shocking talent, and he proved his skills through the ‘Great War’.

And now working as an instructor and developing other talents-.

Akina was the one who was not at all awkward with the title of ‘star of the kingdom’.

And as much as this reputation, she boasted tremendous popularity within the military academy.

He has a noble lineage, but even his skills are perfect.

Because of her overwhelming position, both the cadets and even the instructors tried their best to get to know her somehow.

“… Yes, good morning.”

Akina, the person in charge, had no interest in such friendship at all.

After being roughly greeted by the instructors, she entered the faculty office and sat down.

‘Everyone is forgetting something.’

Akina thought their behavior was a little boring.

This kind of interest from other instructors has always been a thing, but even now, which is more important than ever, everyone is forgetting their duty.

If you are a military academy instructor, you have to select outstanding talent and raise them as heroes of the kingdom.

That’s a natural duty to have as an instructor, and the reason why there are instructors in Tristan.

‘The more so, the instructor test is all the more important.’

In order to do this, it is necessary to select and select talented new instructors.

The quality of the instructor determines the level of the cadets.

This was the most important reason for the ‘instructor exam’ being held in the undergraduate school.

Even so, the other instructors would try to get closer to Akina by taking advantage of the gaps they gathered together to talk to each other.

‘I’m bored.’

Of course, Akina couldn’t help but get tired of that kind of behavior.

Even now, she only has one interest.

Passion for education and a sense of mission.

That was the driving force that drove her.

In the first place, Akina did not advance into politics or the military at such a young age and remained as an instructor.

Just by looking at this, I could see how strong of a hero she was as an instructor.

“Instructor Akina, are you here?”

“Ah, Instructor Jackson.”

Of course, she is not without her close instructors.

These people approached only as instructors without any political purpose.

Those who teach cadets with as firm a sense of duty as she does.

Befitting that appearance, the instructors who have bar skills are quite excellent.

Akina lightly waved her hand at Instructor Jackson’s greeting.

“You’re here early.”

“Oh, of course you have to come early. If you come later than Instructor Akina, you will be caught off guard by those other instructors, so you won’t be able to judge properly.”

“Does your horse have bones?”

“hahahahaha. It’s a joke. I came early just because there was one applicant I was interested in. “I want to watch from the second practical exam to the third practical exam.”

“Are you an interested applicant?”

Akina opened her eyes slightly at Instructor Jackson’s unexpected words.

Although he is usually very playful and makes a lot of lame jokes, Instructor Jackson sets firm standards when it comes to training talent and selecting instructors.

Of course, the standard was as high as an iron wall, and it was safe to say that there were no applicants who perfectly satisfied it.

At least when it comes to selecting instructors, Instructor Jackson is more thorough than Akina.

An applicant who draws his attention like that…

Akina also became a little curious about who the main character was.

“yes. Instructor Akina must have heard of it. Edgar Mullik is an aristocratic applicant, and he passed both the theory test and the first practical exam with perfect marks. It doesn’t mean much to me because I’ve never seen swordsmanship, but I’m the best so far.”

And Instructor Jackson, who answers questions right away.

However, upon hearing that answer, Akina felt her doubt grow.

“Mulrik… ?”

Edgar Mulick.

It’s not a name to be taken lightly.

It was obviously a name that was familiar to her.

At that muttering, Instructor Jackson laughed.

“you’re right. The Great Magician Family, the Marquess of Mullique. This is Edgar Mulick, the second son of that family.”

“… … !”

The question was immediately resolved.

The Great Magician Family, the Marquess of Mullique.

How could I not know its name?

A prestigious family with a fairly old history and tradition, and a prestigious family that made countless contributions in the long history of the kingdom.

In addition, the characteristics of the family that produced the hero are also a certain family.

If the Crowfly duke’s family represents the famous swordsmanship family, the Mullique family is the representative family of the magical family.

The maddening title of ‘The Great Magician Family’ was not something that could be easily attached to even a noble family.

Moreover, since it was a family of marquises with a high reputation within the kingdom, it was the Mullique family that not only nobles but also commoners knew the name to some extent.

… More than anything.

‘The family of the Marquis Mullique.’

The Mullique family is a family headed by Brandon Mullique, a war hero of the Kingdom of Clef.

Brandon Mulick.

A ＜Wizard＞ who holds the crossroads of ＜Mage of Destruction＞, a hero of destiny, and a great wizard with overwhelming skill that is said to be unrivaled in the kingdom in terms of offensive magic.

It already feels familiar with his enormous fame, but Akina was actually close with him.

Great War 5 years ago.

It was because Akina and Brandon had a history of fighting together as colleagues there.

‘The second son… I heard you’re definitely a bastard.’

During the fierce war, the two noble nobles talked a lot.

I definitely remember hearing about the troublesome second son.

Unlike the geniuses of his family, he was born at the crossroads of becoming an “apprentice wizard” and is a person who plays around without even developing his destiny properly.

A person who is far from hard work and quite close to laziness.

He was the kind of person Akina hated the most.

“… By the way, your son applied to be an instructor?”

“Yes, also in the Department of Swordsmanship.”

“Is Sir Edgar from the swordsmanship department?”

“It can’t be. “I graduated from the Faculty of Magic after successfully completing three years.”

“What is that… .”

Akina’s words become blurred in embarrassment.

What kind of bizarre move is that?

It’s surprising that someone who seemed like he would spend his whole life taking the instructor’s exam, and it’s not for the Department of Magic, but the Department of Swordsmanship.

Even if it is an instructor exam that allows for cross-application, and even if by chance Edgar Mullich has been born with the destiny of ＜Prosecutor＞… The Tristan Swordsmanship Faculty’s instructor test was not an easy one to take.

But the results already given speak for themselves.

The first test, the theory evaluation, and the first practical skill score.

Even if there was no practical skills related to swordsmanship, this was not a score that could be obtained by taking the test lightly.

Akina’s expression turns strangely as if she finds it hard to believe.

Then Instructor Jackson smiled helplessly and handed her a document.

“Let’s take a look. “These are the results of the second practical exam that came out this morning.”

Today is the second exam, the 2nd and 3rd practical exams.

The results of the second practical exam, which was held early in the morning, came out right away.

And the scorecard he handed me… .

“… … !”

So strangely enough.

From theory evaluation to 1st practical, 2nd practical.

All evaluation items were scored full marks.

There is only one empty item.

A test in which all major instructors in the department who supervise the second half attend.

Unbeknownst to the applicants, a surprise ’employee interview’ will also be held at the same time.

It was the 3rd practice test in the afternoon, the Tristan swordsmanship demonstration.

“Would you like to check it out later? Is the second son of the Great Magician family only good in body and brain, or is he a hero who can properly use a real sword?”

Instructor Jackson speaks with a smile.

Akina could only stare blankly at that scene.
