Became an Academy Spearman chapter 27

***

“Instructor Carly has already brought the cadets to the instructor’s cafeteria… this?”

“Hey, this is true. They are a really good looking couple, aren’t they?”

“After mentioning the cadets like that, he suddenly turned to that beast… .”

While we were putting enough food on each tray to eat. I stopped at the words I heard from an unknown instructor.

…to take it as a joke and to answer what I said right now.

Because it can be seen as arrogant for a C-class cadet to respond to the instructor. So I just laughed awkwardly like a honey-eaten dumbass.

And Carly, on the other hand.

“Does it look like that?”

“Well, it’s a pretty decent face, so I’m not that bad either.”

Rather, the instructor’s mischievous pranks, she also accepted as light pranks.

And it looked strangely natural.

…if you think about it, Carly’s true personality wasn’t as cold or hard as she said. Rather, he was quite popular with people in equal or similar positions for his playful personality.

In fact, she was a woman who spread her charms here and there without realizing it to the extent that there were some instructors who liked her without her knowing.

good.

So let’s sit at the table by the window facing Carly. Even in the eyes of the other instructors, I salivated.

‘A big steak on freshly baked garlic bread… A soup with plenty of meat and a delicious piece of cheese.’

I couldn’t eat too much, so I only had enough to eat, but it was more edible than any other food I’ve ever seen in the world, and even the flavor of the food was sweet.

“Hancheonseong cadets and instructors are a bit mischievous. You don’t have to be so nervous.”

“Oh, it’s fine. I was not nervous.”

“okay? To me, the cadet Han Cheon-seong looked very nervous, didn’t he?”

I asked with a smile as if she knew that I answered with a little comfort, but I avoided her gaze without realizing it.

‘really… .’

How can a person approach you without such a sense of distance?

Even if anyone sees a beautiful woman, she speaks so kindly, even if it’s not me, there was a strange atmosphere.

“Look at this. The cadet Han Cheon-sung is avoiding my gaze again. Aren’t you nervous right now?”

…as if taking it in a different meaning, he asks, holding up a fork.

I can’t even say that I’m excited ‘because of you’. I smiled awkwardly and raised my fork and knife.

“Then you say I’m nervous.”

“okay? What. Then it’s not bad either. Even cadets who don’t feel distant when they see the instructor.”

To be honest, I was very excited and at the same time I felt quite at ease when I answered as if they would accept anything I said.

heavy, and awkward. Also, I expected a meal where I was worried about how to answer, but in reality, that wasn’t the case.

It was just good.

…really just.

Just being able to eat like this with the woman I liked while reading the novel. Because my heart is very excited and happy. And when it became clear that she was caring for me, I enjoyed this time as well.

Whoops.

As he carefully cut the steak like that, he inadvertently squinted at Kali eating.

The amount of food she ate was similar to mine.

neither too much nor too little. would it be appropriate

The type of food served also seemed to be the same. A simple soup with meat. The only difference between the food she and I had was cheese and garlic bread.

“Oh, and Han Cheon-sung cadets. I want you to listen to me while eating without burden.”

Then I slowly nodded at the voice I heard.

“Yes. All right.”

“Actually, nothing else but about Dalian yesterday… Honestly, there are so many things I want to ask the Han Cheon-seong cadets. I couldn’t understand the words I heard.”

With a certain degree of expectation, I made eye contact while bringing the cut steak to my mouth.

Facing Cali’s eyes full of curiosity, goodwill, goodwill, and strange questions, the questions I had to answer later were expected to some extent.

“I’ve heard quite a bit about Dalian, but I’ve heard that it was consistently offensive against the Leonhard cadets. And that… is it possible because it’s a window?”

I stopped while enjoying the gravy of the steak I felt in my mouth at the next words.

gulp.

I immediately swallowed the very delicious steak and admired it inside.

Common rank, in this world where spears are downplayed.

Kali has just pointed out the core of Dalian yesterday without even looking at it.

‘…named as well.’

Even the compatibility of the weapon is not downplayed.

In fact, most of the main characters in this world are like that. Rather than trying to run away saying it’s nonsense when something happens, how can you do it? Think rationally and think rationally.

“Yes. you’re right.”

“I see. I thought so too… Yeah. Still, the Hancheonseong cadets are pretty awesome. Because I think Yongke also accepted the battle with Leonhard Cadet.”

When she smiled lightly and praised me, I became embarrassed and avoided my gaze.

“It was… just because I thought it was unavoidable.”

And I unintentionally told the emotions I felt.

Obviously, the start of the match was semi-forced due to Glecia. Looking back now, I probably made the same choice.

Even if Glecia’s words weren’t the cause, if something similar happened in the future, they wouldn’t have avoided Dalian.

-It’s okay to bend.

okay. Because it’s okay to lose I had to bump In order for me to become stronger, my traits evolve and go further. I thought it was important to face the crisis without avoiding a formidable enemy that could be called a direct wall.

When I think about it, I really feel that way.

So, after the match, all the resentment I had for Glacier disappeared, and I was even grateful to her for creating such an opportunity.

Because that match was like the most important turning point for me.

“…it couldn’t be avoided. You mean you felt that way toward a Leonhard cadet with legendary traits?”

“Yes. I can’t avoid it in order to evolve my traits and become stronger. If it wasn’t for Leonhard, my choice would have been the same for anyone else.”

As I answered Carly’s curious question, my heart was clear.

No doubts, no hesitation, no hesitation.

Just accept it and admit it.

How can I move forward with this reality?

Don’t you know it’s right in front of you? It’s a thorny road, even if it’s difficult to set foot on it. I could… set foot on that thorny path.

That’s why I entered this academy.

“……’

But was my answer like that surprising?

Carly didn’t ask any questions after that while I ate a few steaks. Still, he looked at me like he was staring at me.

It’s embarrassing for me to keep seeing that gaze, so let’s avoid the gaze and continue eating.

Naturally, there was silence.

But the silence wasn’t bad.

You know she doesn’t look bad on me. And I know she has good intentions for me.

Now it’s natural for me to know that I don’t have confidence and I don’t need to be overbearing. It came to me very naturally.

Rather, I wanted to show Carly more of who I was.

‘If it were her.’

I can be stronger than I am now.

It’s not about stopping at the current growth.

It can achieve incredible growth, like yesterday’s Dalian. Carly is an instructor who promotes the growth of cadets among instructors, and will later become known as an instructor.

I was able to meet her eyes with the same belief as confidence.

“…”

Then, without realizing it, my gaze moved to her lips. There are traces of the red sauce used for dipping the steak on the lips. When I saw it, my heart sank without realizing it.

pounding!

My heart, which I thought had calmed down… I didn’t know the subject and started pounding again.

He tried to calm his mind while proceeding with the meal.

But it wasn’t as easy as I thought.

‘This is why pretty people are dangerous.’

just nothing. In addition to small actions and words, even momentary defenselessness…

Appearance didn’t matter.

It was important that all of that seemed attractive to the other person, even if the person didn’t intend to.

“What… .”

Then, when the mouth opened, I stopped for a moment, but I did not avoid my gaze.

“Hancheonseong cadets are amazing.”

“Am I strange?”

“It also feels a bit strange. To be honest… I never thought that Han Cheon-seong would give such an answer. The feeling I got during the entrance exam was definitely good. Confidence and hard work are things that I think are okay. Still, I don’t think he’d have this deep thought. To be honest, it’s amazing.”

Carly, who continued to speak calmly, put down even the fork she was holding.

To that, I didn’t open my mouth because it would look like I was going to be bubbly no matter what I said.

Instead, he just smiled and made eye contact.

Carly smiled softly at him.

“And it cannot be avoided. Hmm… I think that’s a really good word. To be honest, it would be irresponsible and deceptive if someone said that he couldn’t avoid it, but if he himself feels that way, it means a lot.”

“…is that irresponsible and deceptive?”

“okay. I want the cadets to show that they work hard and improve more than anyone else, but that doesn’t mean I can’t easily say to the cadets to ‘work hard’. Because me and the cadets have different positions. To some, it may seem that all of my traits and talents are innate. Actually… I think there is no such thing.”

Carly, who spoke calmly, met with a soft gaze.

“…”

I couldn’t avoid the gazes I met without knowing her eyes as if they were strange and proud.

It’s not the playful voice I’ve been talking about all this time… .

A soft and sweet voice. For now, I could feel her sincerity. And it felt so close to my heart that I couldn’t avoid looking at it.

Because I can’t ignore people’s sincerity.

‘Can you express your kindness with just your eyes like this? .’

When our eyes met, one side of my chest felt very itchy.

Being able to say things like this casually… Is it really Kali-like? For nothing, it wasn’t a character whose voice came from the fact that he wasn’t a heroine in the original.

‘No, not a character.’

…Now he was a living, breathing being in front of me.

Because I also live with them.

And I knew too well what she was talking about now.

Carly is one of the people who values hard work more than anyone in the world, but for cadets, it was not easy to put it in.

How much of a deception the sound he spit out would be. Because she knows it herself.

And the reason I liked the world in the novel was because there were such beings, including the main character.

“You have to face reality to move forward… .”

Without realizing it, I put those words into my mouth.

What someone said in the original.

The words of a tragic figure who is not alive now and faded away on the battlefield.

Those words that gave Carly a big turning point… .

I inadvertently put it in my mouth.

Watching Carly’s eyes wide open for a moment, I wanted to miss it for a moment, but I couldn’t recall the words I uttered.

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

Carly’s voice was shaky as she asked carefully.
