Practice (2)
“Wow, Heize, are you going to practice already?”
“The team list is gorgeous.”
“Natasha, Bella, Estelle Bantam… … And Marlon Haster.”
As Heize’s practice schedule was announced, the other students were astonished.
Hayes’ stellar team list, along with the determination to quickly schedule practice, was a major cause of surprise.
Hayes, Natasha, Bella, Estelle Bantam, Marlon Haster.
Even the worst Marlon Haster can lead a team.
Of course, after the raid, I became reluctant, but in terms of abilities, I am not lacking in qualifications as a team leader.
Marlon Haster, who is at the very end, is like that, so the rest of the members will not need to say anything.
“It’s a goblin colony… … One hundred would easily pass.”
“How are you all right?”
“it should be hard… … .”
However, the practice location chosen by Heize’s team was as difficult as the gorgeous members.
Goblin colony.
There was a high probability that there would be a boss monster and the king of the colony, such as a hop goblin or a goblin chief, in the place where there were close to a hundred goblins.
Even 100 goblins would be difficult, but if you count the boss monsters who lead them and the names that follow orders, it must have been one of the most difficult missions in the beginning.
Heize shrugged with everyone’s worries.
“A man of this size, not arrogance, should carry out this level of mission. And if it’s really dangerous, the soldiers will move with it, so it’s okay.”
Only five students.
However, considering the level of each individual, there were not a hundred goblins belonging to the lowest level among the lower classes, but even those ships were not dangerous.
I don’t know if it’s just a monster, not a monster.
With so many people’s worries, surprises, and envy, Heize’s group prepared for practice.
* * *
“You’re going to the goblin colony?”
“Yes, that’s it.”
“Heh, that’s fun. The female companions who were just caught by the goblins there were just like this and that… … .”
“Is there even one person like that?”
“No.”
Walpurgis, who had been smirking and wiggling his hands playfully, responded with a smirk.
It’s a well-known thing for goblins to act like they’re crazy about women, and there are actually a lot of people who have been caught and abused by goblins.
Still, I wasn’t worried.
“Did you say Malone? That noble little kid alone could slaughter dozens of goblins, so there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
“It is.”
Marlon Haster.
Even Millen, who is considered the weakest member of the team, can beat dozens of goblins alone.
It was possible for any apprentice knight, and although he was a freshman, Marlon Haster, who had recently gained momentum in his growth, had already reached the level of an apprentice knight.
There was no way Marlon Haster could get in the way during this field trip, and only Bella and Estelle Bantam were able to deal with the goblins.
If there was a boss, Natasha and I would have done it.
“Bye. Without you, I would be bored.”
“Do some work.”
“I’m doing it. And are you cheeky these days? After getting stronger, is there anything you can’t see?”
“… … greatness.”
Coughing while trying to avoid the gaze of Walpurgis, I bowed down by tapping the pouch containing the capsules of mana and tobacco.
“I’ll try this and I’ll tell you.”
“… … Well, that’s normal.”
I headed to the weight room, leaving behind Walpurgis, who smiled contentedly when he said that he would let me know the effect of what he had made.
There is only one week left until the on-the-job training.
This is because I had to do strength training in advance that I couldn’t do during practice.
“A million and twenty one!”
“… … Professor Departe, I will die like this.”
“Think of the muscles that will disappear during the field training, and tighten up, Heize!”
“… … Ha, yes.”
Of course, it wasn’t because I wanted it, but because of my PT professor, Depart Kane, but I was able to successfully complete the PT after facing his shouting and red face.
* * *
gulp-
After PT, Departe Kane approached me while I was drinking cold water and drenched my throat.
“Hey.”
“Oh, yes, professor.”
“You seem to have been seeing a lot of muscle growth lately. What do you eat?”
“… … No, I don’t have anything.”
“okay? You trained so well today that you over-paced yourself without realizing it, but you followed it up pretty well.”
“… … Did you? I’m just having a hard time as usual… … No, I had to.”
Without realizing it, I almost cursed the hellish training, but I managed to get my head around it.
Depart Kane noticed this and burst out laughing and patted my back with a hand that looked like a pot lid.
“Heh heh heh, this must be because of your jewel-like physical abilities and my education. I’ll keep you rolling for a week, Heize!”
“… … Yes, thank you.”
Wouldn’t it be possible to miss training tomorrow if we slap Depart Kane in the back of the head as he walks around with a chuckle? I thought about it, but no matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t think I would be able to stun that monster with my bare hands, without any mana or tobacco.
So, while clenching his fists and staring at the back of his head, he concentrated on drinking water.
gulp-
‘Certainly, my body seems to be growing well lately. By the time this practice is over, it might be a step higher.’
Her head, cleared from drinking cold water, recalled what Departe Kane had just said and nodded.
I felt that the elasticity and strength of my body went through the raid episode a little more than what the status window showed.
However, when Depart Kane gave a definite answer to that, it was a definite answer.
‘At the end of this thread, if you go up one level, it will be about A+.’
My current strength A.
Stamina and agility were B respectively.
Considering that the lower the stat, the faster it rises. By the end of this practice, your stamina and agility will rise from A- to A level, and your strength A+ will be the limit.
‘I need to get on the S asap.’
In order to proceed safely in the middle, it was better to put at least one stat to S, and in particular, due to my lack of mana, it would be better to have two in mind.
‘You have to trust only the elves.’
The fruit of the world tree they serve.
I drank the last cup and headed to the shower, believing that if I could just eat it, it would definitely be of great help to me.
“… … The clothes are gone again.”
And when I realized that the strange phenomenon that sports clothes often disappeared every time I took a shower had occurred again, I changed into the prepared clothes with a sigh and returned to the dormitory.
“You should do something good once.”
For some reason, it seemed that there was a ghost who was aiming for sweat-soaked sportswear, so I was thinking of asking the saint to give me a command.
* * *
The week went by very quickly.
In fact, if it was natural, it would have been natural.
Existing classes are operated before the start of the practice, but the PT time has increased, so it can only feel short.
In the end, he took a break to maintain his physical condition the day before going out for practice, and until then, he continued to train twice as much as usual every day.
This was especially true as the training became more intense as the body became stronger.
Oh, and there was one good thing.
“Hey! I will work hard!”
“Heh heh heh! You won’t be bored while you’re gone. I can use it instead of dumbbells.”
It was Elena who decided to receive PT from Depart Kane while we were away.
Will Elena, who is about to break with just a tap, be able to survive even after taking lessons from Departe Kane?
Or will you survive and become a muscular Elena? But this could be a pretty important turning point for Elena.
Spirits are, after all, similar to wizards.
This is because, if the body is not strong, the knights who rushed to choose close combat and take the damage could seriously injure their noses.
We hope that this event will make Elena stronger in close combat, and we wish Elena good luck.
‘Isn’t it supposed to be the other way around? This is kinda funny.’
We’re leaving, but when we’re realizing the funny situation where we have to wish Elena good luck.
Knock-
“Don’t get hurt.”
Elena approached me and grabbed my hand and breathed in the spirit’s energy.
Feeling her regret for not being with me, I smiled brightly and nodded my head.
“Yes, I will.”
“… … It must be.”
When she tapped Elena’s shoulder, who was nodding her head with blushing blushing.
I felt popular next to me, so I turned my head to see So-Young Cheon and Elizabeth Rouge-Sun standing there.
“It’s too bad that I go as soon as I come.”
“I’ll give you the traveler’s blessing. It will protect you from bad luck.”
Cheon So-young was sad that the masseuse was leaving, but Elizabeth Rouge-sun said it was a traveler’s blessing, touched my body and smiled.
It was a bit gloomy, but I could not say anything because I confirmed that divine power was present.
“Professor Departe agreed to give me a massage while I was away.”
“… … Big, I like that professor, but Heize, you are the best.”
Whoever hears it, you say something that will be misunderstood.
Here, good means a massage, not a person.
Feeling disgusted with knowing that, I flew backwards, and Soyoung Cheon stared at me with a fat face.
“What was the reaction?”
“it’s nothing. Bugs are passing under my feet.”
I shrugged my shoulders with a calm response, and at the same time I fixed the backpack I was carrying on my shoulder once, and turned my back.
“Then see you in a week or two, everyone.”
The duration of the internship is approximately 1-2 weeks.
As long as it lasts from three weeks to a month, it was good-bye for the time being.
After saying thank you to those who came to see us off, we set out on our journey.
* * *
Mysterious Forest.
The forest, which has existed at the edge of the empire since ancient times, was a mysterious forest that separated the borders between the demon realm and the empire, and at the same time prevented demons from invading the empire.
But that’s just the center called the mysterious forest.
The area around it was a dead land infested with monsters and demons to the extent that it was called a monster forest.
For this reason, the Forest of Mysteries is considered a mysterious object by the Imperials and the people of the surrounding villages, and at the same time, it is a place that should not be approached in any way.
“Is this the town of Heern?”
Hern village adjacent to such a mysterious forest was the training site for us to practice.
The villagers who saw us approaching in a wagon were waiting for us.
“You don’t have to treat me like this.”
When we blush and wave our hands at the sight of most of the villagers coming out.
“The goblins took the village maiden!”
“Chief Knight! please! Please bring my daughter back!”
“Aha.”
We didn’t come here to greet you.
Realizing the truth, we got off the carriage with a shy face.
It was the moment before arriving in the village and unpacking the luggage, he was put into the practice field.
