Chapter 148
Train Leona… No, I should have known how to coax her, all that was left was to get information about the beast from her.
He obtains fragmentary information from the book received from Siris, and asks Leona to compare them repeatedly.
Thanks to this, we were able to gather information quickly, but there are also concerns. This is because there are so many different races where the Suin are different from other races.
Leona identified herself as a lion and beastman, so what parts are special, and what are weak points, etc. She gave me a lot of information in return for the steak, but I had no way of verifying the other races.

Even if you know the details of these three races, the great (tiger), the four (lion), and the ung (bear) people who can be called the three chieftains of the beast world, let’s see the other animals. The question had to arise spontaneously.
“Tick! Clap! Don’t worry about that. Few people know more about my people than I do, right?”
“With what confidence?”
“Isn’t it enough just to be admitted to Halo Academy?”
misread! misread!
Leona answered confidently while chewing on the bones. I nodded at what I understood.
It’s been three days since I started training Leona with delicious food. Chewing on bones is now familiar.
There is no problem with dating Marie, after a brief interview with Leona, it is at least 8 o’clock. After all, the end point of a date is an inn, so it doesn’t matter if you hang out late into the night.
Are you the innkeeper again? I was embarrassed to start looking at you with that expression on my face. Either way, Marie was happy just to be with me until the next day.
As soon as I wake up in the morning, I can see the face of my lover, so I can spend the day more energetically.
‘Still, I think I’m going to be suspicious, so I’ll have to restrain myself for the time being.’
A woman’s intuition is inherently terrifying. Leona and her two often eat together, so it’s not the first time they’ve looked suspiciously at them.
Fortunately, Marie believes in me. She says she can’t reveal that Leona is a beast, so she has to take care of herself before she is faced with a difficult situation in many ways.
Besides, today is Friday, the last day of the week. Today is the last day, I do not plan to receive advice from Leona for the time being, and I have an appointment with Nicole tomorrow.
Marie is also busy with her brother and family affairs today, so she has promised to meet at night. Perhaps the next day we will meet again in the morning at the inn.
‘It’s okay if I ask you to have dinner with Nicole at the same time.’
They will soon become a family anyway, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to have Marie together. We’ve had dinner together before, so Nicole will gladly accept it.
Adelia… I don’t know. Even after the last interview with Nicole just the two of us, his words and actions did not change, but can we say that the atmosphere has become more subtle?
The characteristic skinship was still there, but the frequency increased without realizing it, secretly hugging from behind, etc. I was able to assert that it was never something I should do to my friend or brother.
‘It would be okay if my sister didn’t say anything, but…’
Adelia is not sure because it feels different and the same as usual. Because she was doing the same thing to Nicole.
I simply think that after the exhibition, we have become closer. She has a personality completely opposite to Nicole, who is strict but subtle, so it seems like she has a new sister.
If Adelia was really interested in me… even knowing that she was engaged to Marie…
‘…Let’s think about that tomorrow.’
Now it’s important to get more information from Leona. Volume 13 is due to be published soon, so it is convenient to prepare in advance.
It was when I got out of my thoughts and looked at Leona.
“Clap. Clap.”
“… …”
“The sauce is also delicious.”
no. do it in moderation
My upper words went up to my throat, but I barely suppressed them. Probably because Leona’s journey didn’t stop at her bone mukbang.
As if to fully express his desire to eat even a little more, he is licking the sauce on the bowl. Stupidly, nothing comes out.

Eventually, when I put the bowl down, a clean surface as if I had washed the dishes caught my eye. I looked at the bowl with a look of loss of words, then shifted my gaze to Leona.
She had the happiest face in the world, not knowing how I was feeling. Her ears are also upright as if they are soaring into the sky.
“Um, I ate well. I won’t get tired of eating this every day.”
“… …”
“Huh? Why are you looking at me like that?”
Leona asks me, blinking her golden eyes shining like amber. She has a face that is completely unaware of what she has done.
Seeing that, I was really glad that she didn’t have any friends. If she had had a friend, she would have known earlier that she was her benefactor.
Maybe it’s because it’s in front of me that I’m doing this kind of journey. I know Leona is her benefactor, and she knew her too, so there’s no need to play her.
“…you don’t do that when you study, do you?”
“Ah. Still, it’s not that far. You can eat your studies as much as you want, right?”
“How many servings do you eat at a meal?”
“Well? You just eat until you’re full?”
Hearing that answer, I checked Leona’s side. I have already eaten 3 bowls, so they are stacked on top of each other.
For reference, the size of the steak is never small, but rather large. When I heard the explanation, it was said that it was a cut from a cow the size of an elephant.
Recently, as I have grown in size, it is difficult for even me to eat a lot of this and that. Even because he was trained as a knight in the past, he has much more muscle than the general public.
“Yesterday and two days ago, is Suin a glutton like you?”
“It has to be so. Beasts have more muscle mass than other races. It can be said that their innate physical abilities are superior to all races.”
Leona paused for a moment after that and asked me a question.
“Hey. Do you think I weigh how many kilograms?”
“What?”
“How much do you think it will weigh?”
“Well…”
Leona looked up and down at that question. She appears to be 170 cm tall and has a slim overall body.
I don’t know if there is flesh or not because it is covered by a school uniform, but the only thing that is exposed is the chest. Chest fat of just the right size, not too small and not too big.
Considering that and the weight of the bones, it would be around 55kg as an estimate. Maybe that’s it.
“About 55 kg?”
“Ding. I weigh 85 kg.”
“What?”
It’s ridiculous. Even I, who is over 180 and has increased muscle mass, is less than 80 kg, but 85 kg. Is this the visceral muscle you’ve only heard of?
Leona saw my reaction, gave a characteristic cynical smile, and explained it step by step.
“I weigh a lot more than I thought? It’s because I’m a woman, but if I were a man, I might have weighed over 90 kg. Our beasts specialize in ‘body’. .”
“Oh, I’ve heard of it.”

Everyone knows that elves and demons are born with strong physical abilities. This is also true of Suin.
However, elves and demons do not have stronger muscles and weight than humans, but only have much stronger mana affinity. Because of this, I have seen in papers that the body weight itself, including weight, is similar to that of humans. But it doesn’t look like it’s a beast.
In a word, it can be said that elves and demons have greatly developed software, and beasts have strong hardware.
Humans, on the other hand… only weep. I felt bitter and opened my mouth.
“There was a rumor that Su-in was ignorant, is that because of that? Since he was so good, he hardly ever used his head.”
“It’s very accurate. But as the world has changed, there are so many things that can’t be solved only with the body. Now I have to use my head, my head.”
Leona says proudly as she taps her head with her finger. From the looks of it, even though he was a beast, he seemed proud of himself who entered Halo Academy.
“Since the muscle mass is higher than that of other races, the amount of food naturally increases… Then how many servings per person do you eat? Is there any food problem?”
“Before Heek-nim founded the Animers, each tribe suffered from severe food shortages. Because of this, there was a custom of looting, which is why humans call us savages. I’m sorry to say this, but… Humans also own abundant land. Elves and demons are too strong to plunder, and dwarves cannot plunder because they built a city in a mine.”
“So now?”
“Now that I’m farming and building a ranch, there’s no big problem. But if the number of beasts increases, the territory must naturally increase…”
Leona looked into my eyes and blurted out. I didn’t say anything behind the scenes, but I can guess what he’s going to say.
Food is one of the most important obstacles not only for beasts but for all mankind. In his previous life, he suffered from famine until the early 20th century, until he invented nitrogen fertilizer. It is not for nothing that Fritz Harbor was given the honor of being a ‘scientist who made bread out of air’.

Even in this world where magic exists, there is nothing to be done about the food shortage. Enrich the land with magic?
Then, insects or birds that harm crops, and even miscellaneous monsters appear, causing a lot of trouble. It is said that not all magic is omnipotent.
Unless nitrogen fertilizers, which have solved mankind’s food shortage, do not appear, famines will inevitably occur anytime, anywhere. Fortunately, there is a ‘god’ in this world, so if there is a famine, it can be solved through prayer.

Even without nitrogen fertilizers, the total population is close to 2.5 billion thanks to magic and gods, but if things go on like this, there may be a famine that even that cannot be resolved. Then there could be a catastrophe.
‘I should consider this as well.’
I wrote the keyword ‘great famine’ in my notebook and put an asterisk on it. I’m not going to put it in Xenon’s biography right away, but in a sequel, but there is no catastrophe that incites conflict and destroys civilization as quickly as the Great Famine.
Moreover, since I found out that the beauties are a warrior group that knows the honor, conflict with humans must be an unavoidable fate. At the end of Xenon’s biography, it seemed like it would be good to add a sequel rice cake with an explanation that humans and beasts collided.
Of course, I plan to write it after I write World War II.
“Isn’t there a breadbasket in your country?”
“There are many granaries. But the number of beasts is increasing day by day. Although the population of beasts is 500 million and humans are 1.6 billion, they are actually similar because even children boast an enormous amount of food. Whenever something goes wrong, I pray to Hart-sama to solve it… but this alone will not be enough.”
“Someday, we have to go to war with humans. Humans currently possess the largest amount of land.”
Leona nodded her head without saying a word. It’s a different look than before when I was proud to look into my eyes.
Am I reluctant to go to war with humans, or is it because I am human? Whatever the case, the clash between humans and beasts will be unavoidable.
‘The Second Tribal War … could be centered on humans and beasts.’
Some 300 years have passed since the outbreak of the tribal war, and the world has undergone a major change. Humans who had oppressed the elves as one united in the name of the Union were divided politically, while the beasts gradually hoarded their power.
It is impossible to predict whose side these three races will take, elves, demons, and dwarves, but maybe the composition will be similar to the first one.
“…hey.”
“yes?”
“Can I ask you one thing?”
After a brief moment of awkwardness, Leona cautiously called out to me. I nodded my head as I listened to her question.
Then she licked her lips and hesitated to speak, then looked straight at me. His golden eyes were filled with concern and concern.
“That… you humans are strong, aren’t you?”
“If you look at it objectively, you can say it’s strong.”
“Then do you think our beasts can defeat you humans?”
Was it like that? When she heard the question, she looked into Leona’s face. Her face was full of nervousness, but there was also a subtle expectation of her.
Normal people don’t ask questions like that. The relationship between humans and beasts is bad at the level of dog-bearing, but as we saw in the last exhibition, it can be seen that there are beasts mixed with human society.
Moreover, before the release of Xenon’s biography, there was a public enemy called ‘Demons’, so they were resting with each other. However, it is difficult to make it an ideal as the awareness of demons has risen vertically.
Therefore, the friction between humans and beasts, who were each other’s thorns in each other’s eyes, will intensify day by day. There may also be a food problem. Conflict and friction between the two races is inevitable.
‘Isn’t she also the daughter of some chieftain?’
It’s clear that he’s quick about the Animers’ situation, and that he emphasizes that he’s his own lion beast, as well as his unusual status. Even if I don’t go far, I can’t help but feel that way because of Adelia’s example.
I’ll have to give you an answer right away. I put the thought aside and answered the question.
“I think it’s possible.”
“Why? By the way, I don’t like words put in my mouth.”
“It wasn’t a word of mouth, but objectively. As you know, there was one thing that stood out especially when humans went to war. It was unity. Through that unity, we were able to gain victory over the elves, and furthermore, the merciless slaughter of your beasts. Beggar.”
“… …”
Leona’s mouth shut tight when he mentioned the worst history for Suin. I explained in her soft voice so she could understand.
“But 300 years have passed since then, and the number of humans has skyrocketed and the powers have diversified. Do you know what this means? It is a structure that is bound to be politically divided. Beasts on the other hand? Beasts aren’t without problems internally, but they’re much better than humans. Things could be the other way around.”
“…that our beasts can be united as one?”
“If you have one common goal, it’s not impossible.”
“Do we really need to go to war?”
“yes?”
This is a bit of an odd question. Of course, I expected a war, but it seems that Leona had a different opinion.
Leona opened her mouth with a slightly sad expression while I was stunned.
“I wondered if there was a need for war…. Humans like politics, right?
“Well. There’s no guarantee that this won’t happen, but history proves it. Since ancient times, there have been quite a few attacks by other powers in order to contain the forces that are getting stronger. And, as you said, to support the growing population. You said we had to increase the country. Can we really avoid conflict here?”
“… …”
I may have inserted the facts, but Leona’s ears, which had risen, fell down. The expression on his face also makes me feel sorry for saying that he suddenly became depressed.
But at the same time, I have doubts. Leona is a beast, and she has a warlike personality to the extent that she further describes herself as a lion beast.
Of course, he knew he would choose war, but he seemed to be on the path to peace unexpectedly.
“Leona.”
“… …”
“It may be cruel to say this to you, but it is the law to distinguish between reality and ideal. If you have the ability to make an ideal a reality, it will be recorded in history like Heek, the wealthy and great man of the Animers. They came together to establish the nation and further escape from threats. A wise leader should make a choice by compromising with reality rather than ideal. I do not know why you hid your identity and entered the academy, but I advise you that it has something to do with him Will.”
Those who have achieved their ideals are bound to be recorded in history, whether in a good or bad sense. It means that it is difficult.
I didn’t know which way Leona wanted to go, but I felt like I had to give her some advice. She thought otherwise, she’d be so stubborn that she would lead herself to ruin.
Leona listened to me and pondered for a while, then smiled a bit bitterly. She then looked at me and said quietly.
“You say the same thing as my mother. She also said that ideals and reality should be clearly distinguished.”
“Your mother is wise. So, did you change your mind?”
“I’m going to think about it after graduating. By the way, are you really good at talking? You’re 17, aren’t you older than you know?”
“… …”
I said this as a joke, but my heart is pierced for nothing. Leona giggled as I laughed bitterly.
The atmosphere must have been refreshed, and I brought out the questions I was always curious about.
“…Leona.”
“yes.”
“Why did you enter the academy?”
To that question, Leona answered with a no-nonsense tone.
“To please my mother.”
“… …”
she was a filial
“May I order another bowl?”
“Hey Mr.”
