I Became an Academy Baldo User chapter 3

Road to Academy (2)

‘Go on this horse.’

Along with those words, my mother entrusted me with the Silence, a horse boasting a unique green mane that cannot be seen on Earth.

To be honest, when I first saw it, I felt uncomfortable because it looked like it wasn’t a lively dog and only dyed its mane, but the longer we spent together, the more I started liking Silence.

Silence didn’t cry at all, as if he was going to be worth his name, but when he ran, he proceeded with an unstoppable speed.

He was usually quiet, but when he was in a car, his fierce appearance was like watching a baldo, and he gradually fell in love with Silence.

In my mind, I want to give it a classy and cool name like Baldomaru instead of a rustic name like Silence.

‘By the way, this is my first time going out.’

As I sat quietly on top of Silence and watched the gradually changing landscape, I suddenly thought of that.

It wasn’t the first time he had gone out of the mansion, but this was the first time he had gone out of the estate like this.

Maybe that’s why I felt like I was on an outing, and I felt like I was out on an adventure like the main character in the story.

Today, three days after leaving home, there are still a few days left until the academy’s entrance ceremony.

There was no penalty for not being able to participate in the entrance ceremony, but I want to attend as much as possible since it is a place where all the main actors of the work gather.

‘I still have a lot of time, so it’s okay to go slowly.’

It’s been a long time since I left home, so it’s okay to wander around here and there.

I have enough food and time, and above all, being homeless is like camping, so it’s fun.

After leaving my body to Silence and running for a long time, I arrived at a forest near the Royal Academy.

If you look at the map, the forest isn’t that big, but it’s not too small, and if you go through the forest, you’ll get to the academy.

‘Should I sleep here today?’

After finding a suitable site, I let Silence rest, took out my backpack, and started pitching the tent.

At first, I struggled a bit because I was not used to pitching a tent, but now, after three days, I am able to pitch quite neatly.

As we pitched our tents, lighted a bonfire, and prepared meals for Silence and I, the sky suddenly turned red.

‘You did a good job preparing for the camping in advance.’

I sat in front of the bonfire and chewed jerky and biscuits, which I didn’t even eat in the military.

Neither the jerky nor the biscuits were good.

‘I want to eat real meat instead of jerky.’

I just came to the forest, so tomorrow, shall I catch a rabbit or a deer and eat fresh meat after a long time?

While I was lighting the bonfire with that thought in mind, the sky, which had been dyed red in the sunset, began to turn black like my hair.

Countless stars embroidered in the black sky and a gigantic crescent moon emitting pure light.

Whether when I first saw the sky after being reincarnated in this world, or now, when I look at the sky, nothing but admiration comes out.

‘It’s a beautiful moon.’

Looking at that crescent moon brings back memories of that day.

In the last battle, many soldiers of my father and family were killed, and the security of the territory deteriorated.

Bandits came down from the mountain and plundered and rioted, but because of the lack of soldiers, they could not even defend the village, let alone subdue the bandits.

So, I decided to test the martial arts I had learned so far and protect the village.

My mother stopped me because I was crazy, but I sneaked out at night and infiltrated a mountain not far from a nearby village to find their hideout.

Even now, thinking about the events of that day, my hands are itching and I can’t stand it.

‘A sword back to the scabbard? Did the little bastard just come and want to surrender!!”

‘What is Baldo? What’s this stupid bastard talking about?’

‘I guess it’s like what happened to my head after training only garbage-like skills.’

Garbage who doesn’t even know about the most perfect technology in the world!!

When I think of how they fell one by one because of the technology they looked down on, it puts a smile on my face even now.

‘I want to cut again.’

It’s good to shoot into the air without cutting anyone, but if you have an opponent, the taste of baldo deepens.

Are there any bandits or anything like that around here?

It’s close to the Royal Academy, so there’s likely to be one or two peddlers who go to the academy and those aiming for nobility.

“aah!!! I want to kick!! Baldoo!!!”

He shouted at the lush forest, but there was no sign of an animal coming, let alone a bandit.

All that comes is the flying flies tangled in the bonfire.

“Tt… .”

There’s no point in getting angry at a fly that doesn’t even understand Baldo’s greatness.

Today is the moment when you can’t help but go into the tent to sleep.

– Crumble Crumble!

Maybe the god of Baldo heard my prayer, but I felt someone approaching me from a place that wasn’t far, but not too close.

what? is it a beast?

Either way it doesn’t matter. Whether it be a beast or a bandit, the important thing is that you can now use Baldo.

– Crumb Crumb!!

The sound gets a little closer.

Now that I had a foreboding that the enemy would be here soon, I took a stance looking in the direction of the sound.

‘come!’

As the sound grew louder, the bushes roared loudly, and then something popped out, I drew my sword without hesitation.

“yes?”

“Ahhhh!!”

I swung my sword, but when I saw it protruding from the bushes, I could not cut it and twisted the trajectory of the sword.

“Wow!!”

Perhaps she had come all the way here after damaging the bushes, and her head and body were covered in leaves, and she exhaled heavily, bursting with tears and runny noses.

hahaha, if you suddenly see Baldo, the world’s strongest swordsman, even if it’s Guan Yu, you can’t help but scream like a girl.

It was so unexpected that I couldn’t cut myself, but I immediately came to my senses and told her.

“What kind of guy are you?! Are you a bandit?! Can I walk?!”

“Sa, I’m not a bandit! Bar, please don’t even touch your feet!!”

“Can’t we just bandit?”

I want to walk… .

As he was touching the hilt of the sword that had been put back in to the regret of not being able to shoot, another person appeared from the bushes.

“Hey… hehe… !”

A fat man who appeared to be in his early to mid 40s was sulking around no matter where he was rolling.

“… … You look a bit like a bandit, are you a bandit?”

“Oh, no… ha… no! Sah, live… !!”

“ha… .”

It’s too hard to do even once.

*****

The two of them, exhausted as if they had run as hard as they could so far, panted on the floor as if they were about to collapse at any moment.

“ha… ha… .”

I don’t know who these two are, but looking at them now, it looks like they’ve been chased by someone.

“Hey, this… .”

I handed the two of them a canteen of water from the spring not long ago.

Did they develop a friendship that transcends gender and generational differences as they run away from a common enemy?

The two enjoyed sharing water without arguing with each other over not much water.

“Whew… .”

After drinking the water and feeling calm to some extent, the two took a breath and looked up at me.

“Go, thank you… . I’m out of breath… .”

After confirming that the two had calmed down, I took the canteen back and asked them.

“… Oh, is it? But who are you? It looks like a couple.”

“Ah, my name is Hori. I was admitted to the academy this time, so I went to the academy… .”

Hori stopped talking and looked at the man who was resting against a tree to see if he had calmed down, just like Hori.

“After that, I will tell you. My name is Boris, and I am a hawker.”

From what I heard, Boris was a peddler who went to and from the villages near the academy.

“peddler? I don’t see any horses or carriages for that sort of thing.”

“that is… I was taken away by a robber with Jim.”

Huh, then, while running away from the robber, it flowed into this forest.

“A robber… So what about the robber?”

“Yeah, obviously they were following us up until a while ago, but it looks like we managed to escape. Seeing the invisible.”

“fire!! You have to put out the lights!”

Hori, who had been quietly listening to Boris, said so, abruptly got up and said.

“If you don’t put out the fire, they might see the fire and come back!”

“ah! Hori-chan is right! I’m sorry, but even now… .”

“no. You put out the bonfire you worked so hard for because you were afraid of robbery?”

“They are not just robbers! If you don’t turn it off quickly… .”

“If it’s not just a robber, what? Could it be the legendary super robber? They must be people who can’t even use their feet anyway… .”

“These are the robbers from the mercenaries wandering around here! They are experienced and savage bastards!!”

“Oh oh… okay? And what else?”

“From what I hear, the size of the tens of people is so bad that even the lord of this territory is suffering!! Besides, there’s even a rumor that their captain knows how to use speculation… !!”

“really?! Are there any such guys nearby?!”

“Yes! So fire it up… .”

As soon as I heard these words, I turned to the bush they came from and shouted with all my might.

“You robbers! The woman who ran away and the hawker are here!!”

“Come on, wait… !! What are you doing?!”

“There are even weak swordsmen who cannot use the strongest swordsmanship such as feet!! Come quickly and catch me!!”

“Shut up!! Shut up!!!”

I’m only now able to use Baldo, are you going to shut up that I’m crazy?

I shouted to the forest with a louder voice.

“Come over here quickly!”
