56. Family Reunion
Professor Prague’s words kept ringing in my ears.
The sound that what could happen with the essence of a dragon was distorted before I knew it and changed to mean that if you have the essence of a dragon, you will grow taller.
It was said that waiting a little longer would bring better results, but the first thing I heard was the most impressive.
“Atlas.. Wake up.”
“Wow.. In really bad condition… “
I said it was okay, but I couldn’t get it out of my head.
I was culling out and simulating the dragons that were most easy to catch by mobilizing the information I had on dragons known to the world and the information I had gathered while living as a knight.
However, most of the known dragons are only key figures that cause huge problems if I kill them because I want to kill them…
Typically, a nobleman like St. Macintosh seems to be able to manage something if I attack his weakness well, but after the dragon dies, the church is now in danger.
If the church becomes dangerous, it means that the world will become a world where demons roam freely.
I hate that more, so let’s leave this alone.
Besides that… There are several dragons, such as a dragon playing as royalty in a kingdom, or a dragon playing with power as an intermediate wizard in a tower, but they are all dragons with roles.
‘Should I give up on this…’
The results compared to risk are too salty.
The exchange rate was too low to bet the future of the world on something that was not certain.
I could have thought differently if I was clear.
Is the only thing I can do right now is to wait for Professor Prague’s research….
“Then today’s class… “
In front of you, Andy senpai is organizing the contents of today’s class.
Suddenly, while listening to his class, something strange came to my mind.
It’s already been over two weeks. Why does it feel like the first class?
Because there are so many events these days, it is clear that he was tired.
“… Atlas, is that really the training of the Imperial Knights?”
“About half.”
Senior Andy was explaining the upcoming training.
The contents of the training were simple.
In other words, the insane intensity of basic training continues until the next test, and the test score is given by measuring physical strength on the test day.
I don’t think it’s just giving students too boring training, but these are the actual training that the Imperial Knights do during their apprenticeship.
Because nothing can be built without a solid foundation.
No wonder Amy thinks that’s strange.
It’s basic training, so if you just hear it, you’d want the Imperial Knights to do something like that.
“Wow… that’s real….”
It’s really yawning and it’s a difficult training, but you’re doing something like that
It seems that he is quite confident in his popularity these days.

“What are you all going to drink?”
“Are you going to buy today? I’ll buy it this time, so put your wallet in.”
“No, I will live this time. I ate too much.”
“You guys… When they say they’ll buy it for you, just drink it with gratitude.”
I was walking down the hallway to go to a cafe in the free time I had until the next class.
I’m taking it out again because I’m buying it.
I made some money while working, but I don’t lose money with this kind of thing.
I have a mistake.
I have to force myself to buy them and feed them.
“Are you Atlas?”
But someone blocked my way.
“Who are you?”
He was a man with a large, rugged body.
It was unpleasant to look down with a vicious face.
She asked about her formal clothes, but I guessed where she belonged, seeing as she wore a short cloak and wore a sword around her waist.
Is this the third friction already?
“The Swordsmanship Research Department. The manager calls, so follow me.”
As expected, it was the Swordsmanship Research Department.
What do you mean the manager is calling?
Actually, it’s already the second time I’ve beaten the members there, so it wouldn’t be strange if the manager complained about something, but the timing was odd.
I didn’t say anything the day after the beating, but I felt suspicious that they asked me to come at such an ambiguous time.
In the first place, who was the head of the swordsmanship research department?
I know he’s graduating next year, but I don’t know who he is.
In her original work, it was because the Swordsmanship Research Department began to receive attention in earnest from the year after she graduated.
I wonder what they call it.
“What are you guys saying, look at people and go!”
“It’s okay.”
River tried to step out, but she blocked it with her arm.
I’ve come to this point and now there’s no need for the river to step in.
“Did the general manager have any problems with his legs? If you have something to say, come directly.”
“This… Little boy… !! What to the manager..!!”
The face of the Swordsmanship Research Club member, who was standing in good shape after being rejected, turned red.
Flinging with the hilt of the sword worn around the waist is the momentum to pull it out at any moment.
Originally, I would have waited to be picked first and then counterattacked, but these guys are already the third.
“I need to fix the things you guys say. “
This time, too, the height difference between them was severe.
The difference was very unpleasant, so I decided to first make the eye height similar.
I kicked the shin of the Swordsmanship Research Club member who was looking down at me.
-Wooddeuk!
“Keah!!!”
As his shin was broken by a giyeokja, the swordsmanship researcher fell forward, unable to draw his sword.
Looking at the angle, I stepped back slightly and grabbed the collar of the falling Swordsmanship Research Club member.
“This meal again..!!”
A member of the swordsmanship research department who was caught by the collar glared at me terribly.
If I fell down like that, my nose would have been broken, so I should be thankful.
“Isn’t everything in your head? First of all, don’t you learn anything by watching the seniors who were smashed?”
I’m not in a good mood, but strange people are twisted.
At that time, a strong voice came from afar.
“Hey Yay Yay You Fools!!”
Someone is running this way.
She ran from the end of her hallway right in front of me, cutting through the crowd, a very healthy-looking woman.
“I politely asked you to bring me. Someone said to have a fight!!”
Dark auburn hair, like an old tree, flutters in the sky.
His blue eyes, similar to mine, twinkled.
The raised eyes are like a troublemaker, and the mouth is big, so it was very powerful in expressing emotions.
‘…Where did you see that?’
She is definitely someone I’ve never seen before, but she feels somehow familiar.
The first impression is that he looks like a very mischievous person.
Appearing wearing her short cloak, the trademark of the Swordsmanship Research Department, she struck the head of the Swordsmanship Research Department with her broken shin with her fist and came this way.
“Sorry, sorry, our members are nice, but all of them are stupid….”
The Swordsmanship Research Club member was taken aback when he saw me being very friendly.
I must have known that he had told me to bring him in to take care of me.

“Boo.. Manager!! But how many of her seniors has this guy sent..!”
“You should feel ashamed if you lose in a one-to-many fight!! Shall I avenge you guys?!”
“Hey!”
The head of the Swordsmanship Research Department shouted at the Swordsmanship Research Department member who was making an unfair expression with her leg broken.
The two members who followed him grabbed him and dragged him away, then he disappeared somewhere.
The head of the Swordsmanship Research Department, who was watching the member of the Swordsmanship Research Department being dragged like a piece of luggage, put his hands on his sides and turned to me.
“Yes, I have to come myself.. I am Hera Nemea, the head of the swordsmanship research department.”
Hera Nemea?
It was a new person, but the last name that followed was very familiar.
It was my mother’s surname, which I am using now.
‘It’s a big deal, damn it.’
A cold sweat ran down my spine.
A person with the last name of Nemea was attending the academy?
“Is this your first time seeing it? Little brother.”
She spread her arms toward me and smiled brightly.
————————————————
Hera Nemea is the eldest daughter of the Nemean family.
Currently the head of Nemea… So she is the daughter of Patro Nemea, my mother’s brother.
So it’s not like she’s not related by blood at all, and it would be more accurate to call her her cousin.
“Brother..?”
River looked at Hera, the head of the swordsmanship research department, with very suspicious eyes.
It would be amazing if it appeared out of nowhere.
“… Atlas, what are you going to do?”
Amy, who knew my real last name, whispered in my ear what I was going to do.
But this is unexpected for me too.
“I didn’t think of this…?”
It wasn’t that he knew everything about the genealogy of his mother’s family, it was because he had no idea that there was a student with the last name of Nemea at the academy.
I didn’t even know it was due to be graduating next year.
Contrary to my worries, Hera Nemea approached me with a big smile and grabbed my hand.
“My half-brother, how hard you have lived through the storms of the world… Don’t worry, this sister will be with you now!”
She said it out of the blue, making exaggerated gestures like a play, but it was hard to react.
The fortunate thing is that he is very friendly towards me.
It was very difficult for a guy who wasn’t even on the family register to come running with a knife because he had a last name, but it’s very fortunate that he said he was a younger brother.
If Hera had entered the school on time, I would have been older.
“It’s strange… I said she would be impressed if I said this.. But wasn’t it? “
When my reaction was lacking, Hera slightly opened her eyes and she returned to normal.
“Since there are many eyes to see, shall we move first?”
At the sudden declaration of a younger brother, all the classmates around me opened their eyes wide and watched this way.
