Became an Academy Spearman chapter 280

280. after everything is over

***

Time has passed.

Time that I don’t know how it went.

The time when Kali miraculously saved me. I threw myself outside to gather my heart and somehow save Karite.

I couldn’t stop walking even though my body was staggering like a creak, and the moment I earnestly asked the instructor I met shortly after guiding Karite… .

The string of tension in my heart was cut as it were.

Then, as if I had done all I had to do, I was unconscious. So I don’t remember anything after that.

but. Wake up now and wake up. I was able to put my mind at ease with the sight reflected in my eyes.

“……”

When I turned my head to the side, I saw Karite there, breathing softly as if asleep.

—-Karite is alive.

That was more important than anything else.

I put everything down on what I thought could not be saved no matter what choice I made, but like a miracle, I was able to save her.

Although relieved by the reality, other thoughts seldom came to mind.

How long have you been looking at Karite like that?

“…For the time being, please rest in peace. There is no major problem with the body, so it should recover naturally over time.”

He nodded blankly at the voice he heard and kept his eyes on him.

There, I saw Carly with an apologetic expression. Her face was not very bright under the disheveled red hair.

The woman who saved Karite and me, and is the most lovable woman to me because she is still by my side.

…she was the woman who saved me when I gave up everything at the end.

That’s why I couldn’t understand why she looked so sorry for me.

“You don’t have to be so sorry.”

“no. I should have paid more attention to Cadet Han Chun-seong… He really has no face.”

Ever since I woke up, I’ve been focusing on Karite being alive.

Even so, I understood the contents of several words Carly had given me.

Remorse for the fact that such a big accident happened again and that he was caught up in the apostle because he couldn’t send it back properly.

Finally… she apologized to me for almost everything, saying that she missed the mysterious apostle.

And knowing all that, I had no desire to blame or resent Carly.

“I’m just… grateful that Karite and I survived.”

I calmly conveyed the sincerity in my heart and carefully stretched out my hand.

Seruk.

He took her hand on the bed.

Now, in the curtained space, I can see only Carly, me, and Karite through the softly open curtains, so I act without hesitation.

“…”

Carly bit her lip slightly as she accepted my hand.

He smiled softly, covering her face clearly.

softly… .

And he spoke again while stroking her hand as if it were more precious than anything else.

“It was an accident no one expected. Even though Karite and I got caught up in the Angel, we’re still alive. Karite and I were able to live because Instructor Kali arrived on time. Stop beating yourself up.”

“Cadet Han Chun-seong… .”

“And you got the biggest clue, right?”

“…huh. yes.”

Even with Carly’s reluctant reply, I felt that it was the biggest gain.

I didn’t know that Kali would be a strong apostle who missed the apostle, but Kali got a clue what the trace of strength was from the missing apostle.

How can apostles continue to appear within the empire?

its source. Kali was able to catch the lead instead of executing the apostle.

‘Despair stained with blood.’

Although the victim, who will appear in the third episode, was unavoidable.

I had to see people die.

Even so, it didn’t stop there.

“The deaths of the cadets who died this time… it won’t end with just sacrifices.”

Speaking calmly, I was able to speak confidently.

“……”

Looking at Carly’s complexion, which had become heavier than before, I thought that the accidents that had occurred before were unavoidable ‘accidents’.

No one can prepare

The root cause of accidents. It was impossible to stop it no matter what.

By the way, the clue Carly got now.

Because of that, I have something to prepare for the fourth and fifth episodes that will happen in the future.

That clue…was the biggest key.

—-There is an existence within the academy that communicates with the apostles.

What Kali felt from the apostle she couldn’t kill was that there was a high possibility that it was a human who had made a perfect contract with the apostle.

The reason why this kind of accident occurred, and why it was aimed at cadets, is now completely clear.

‘I can prevent accidents.’

I know for sure that great confusion will come to the academy in the future.

The accident that happened yesterday will engulf the academy with chaos of incomparable proportions.

But it was, in my opinion, a necessary confusion.

Now that the clues that didn’t even come out in the original work have been completely revealed, it won’t just happen.

“I’m sure you can find the snitch.”

“I’ll figure it out somehow. Starting today, a massive investigation will begin on the instructors and staff inside the academy.”

I nodded as I saw Carly answering in a firm tone.

Seruk.

And when Carly gently took my hand, I felt a little more relieved.

…Even though I thought about something, I was just grateful for this reality again.

What Kali saved us from.

glimpse.

And that Karite, who believed that she could not escape death, survived like this… .

A heart that can be grateful for reality.

…I was now more acutely aware of why that could be.

‘I didn’t lose.’

I thought I couldn’t save it, but I was able to be saved.

So I didn’t lose Karite.

Contrary to what I thought I had to overcome in an unavoidable situation, she found me and saved us.

…it wasn’t hopeless.

The judgment I made at the end.

The fact that I was able to be saved because the choice to protect Karite at that time earned me a little more time is now considered to be luck.

‘I was prepared to die with Karite rather than live alone… .’

I thought that my choice would save both Karite and me.

“Cadets of Hancheon Castle.”

Hearing the soft voice, he looked at her again and opened his mouth.

“…yes. Instructor.”

Carly, who had been staring at me, cautiously reached out her hand.

The one hand that held my hand that I had stretched out earlier.

Sararak.

Then he reached out with his other hand and gently stroked my hair.

“Are you really feeling okay…? You don’t have to think too hard about it. You can rest comfortably.”

A smile leaked out of that worried voice.

“I’m already resting comfortably.”

I wondered if it could really be more comfortable than this.

Despite my words, Carly shook her head softly.

“I wish I could relax a little more. And from now on, the cadets of Han Chun-seong will be escorted by the Golden Knights. After a series of accidents within the academy, we decided that the purpose of an apostle was to be a cadet, and the imperial family accepted that, so we decided to dispatch an imperial knight.”

And I was quite surprised by the words that followed.

“…If it’s a golden knight, is that what I thought correct?”

“that’s right. Originally, I was going to assign a separate instructor to the cadet Han Chun-seong within the academy. Because the imperial family also announced that they would completely intervene in the academy through this accident. I said that I would send the Golden Knights as I said that I would protect Cadet Han Chun-seong as my top priority.”

Carly, gently stroking my hair, smiles at this fact as if to put her mind at ease… I was just surprised by her words.

recent accident. I was always at the center of it.

The apostle aimed blatantly at me to the extent that everyone had no choice but to know that the apostle’s purpose was me.

But even so… .

‘Sending a golden knight as my personal escort.’

golden knight.

…The knight who came to the academy from an accident in the past could be called an ‘Imperial Knight’. They are also strong beings.

However, the ‘golden knight’ that Carly spoke of now had a completely different meaning.

Even now, a golden knight was residing in the academy, protecting the royal family. But that was only for the ‘royal family’.

An existence that is completely beyond a decent officer.

Because it refers to a knight who protects the imperial family, who is more important than anyone else in the empire, and is called an imperial knight.

And that’s why they are evaluated as beings that have reached the axis.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that she was a being with a power almost equal to that of Kali in front of me.

And they were not originally meant to protect a commoner like me.

‘…for a moment.’

Stop thinking and my head got complicated.

“Instructor Carly. Even so, if you’re a golden knight, aren’t you a high-ranking noble?”

“yes. However, it is known that the character of a golden knight is mostly upright. You don’t have to worry too much about Cadet Han Chun-seong.”

Carly’s softly smiling voice did not put my mind at ease.

nobility of this world.

Compared to the aristocrats in other novels I’ve read, it’s said that commoners aren’t viewed very lowly, but high-ranking aristocrats certainly have that tendency.

There were so many things that the Golden Knights were concerned about as they existed to protect the imperial family.

The family he came from is also a family, and it was a position that only excellent knights from a family that could be completely trusted could ascend.

Individual achievements, skills, personality, family, all of those things must not be missing.

gulp. My head was dizzy as I swallowed.

‘I don’t think you’ll treat me well… .’

A golden knight can only be achieved by becoming the lowest-priced marquess of the title he has.

If that’s the case, that’s the rank of an aristocrat who comes from a family that has never come out of the aristocrats I’ve ever met at the academy.

Of course, I’ve met the highest ranking members of the imperial family, but they’re an exception… .

“And I was informed that an imperial knight would arrive around this afternoon. It will be worth looking forward to.”

“…in one day?”

“huh. It is said that they use the portal in the imperial family, so the imperial family and golden knights are not restricted by time wherever they go.”

I blinked in a daze at Carly’s plainly telling me the truth.
