160 – In England – 1
The news of the attack on the academy quickly spread. And, even the news spread that he successfully blocked the attacks of the villains.
– …So, the association provides additional compensation to the cadets of the academy…
– …The association’s heroes and each guild’s heroes join forces to respond to the current villain group called the Blade of Dawn..
– …Our hero fighting the villain! Awakeners! Fear not! The world wants you!
While flipping through the channels, I turned off the TV by pressing the remote control. Lately, stories like this have been coming out all the time.
As expected, it’s hard to get information from the news.
I laid down on the bed and accessed the Internet using my terminal to search for new information. I was looking for information on the movements of the villains or new ruins, but the blade of dawn had been quiet since the last defeat.
Of course, petty-level villains still have accidents.
And dungeons and ruins didn’t have much to say either.
“After all, summer vacation has to start.”
I put down the terminal and lay down on the bed.
-Titling!
I was going to spend the last days of the day practicing my skills, but the terminal rang. I checked and it was Elizabeth.
[John. Can I go to England right after the vacation tomorrow?]
As promised, I went to England with Elizabeth.
Of course, when I go to England, I have to go to an uninhabited island with Jin Si-yeon, and after taking a day off, I have to go around the ruins with Yoo Cho-ah.
And I have to go around the ruins with Instructor Kim Yeon-ha and other heroes.
And the real schedule is packed.
But that’s how much I can grow… Let’s just go quietly.
I sent a reply right away and the reply came right back as if I was satisfied.
[You can look forward to it! It will definitely be an unforgettable week!]
I hope so.
The next day. It was around the time the boring, boring vacation was over.
When I was about to go back to the classroom and listen to the announcement, Instructor Kim Yeon-ha called me.
When I went to the instructor’s room, it seemed that there were quite a few other people besides me.
“Huh? Are you here too?”
It was Max. The guy is also full of luggage, including a suitcase, next to him, probably trying to return home when vacation begins.
“Hey. You too?”
Aside from Max, Satsuki and several other people were waiting. Why did you call After waiting, Colombo, who had been inside first, came out.
From the look on your face, you must have had something good happen.
“I received points for merit in the last raid!”
“Hmm. So that’s what we called for too? Hmm. Great. I needed a new sword.”
My name was called when Max, who had been clamoring to collect points and get a new sword from the association, went inside and came out.
When I went in, Instructor Kim Yeon-ha, who was sitting with a sullen face, held out a piece of paper.
“What is it?”
“Point voucher. Check it out.”
Let’s see. When I opened the envelope, there was a voucher with quite a number written on it. If you bring it to the association, it will be exchanged for points, so take care of it.
“Your contributions will be recognized and your grade will go up. You will now be a B-class. When you graduate, you will be able to act as a B-class hero right away without judging.”
“That’s nice.”
“Well, I don’t think you’ll stop at grade B.”
Of course. For Elizabeth, Jin Shi-yeon, and Yoo Cho-ah, Rado has to go up to S-class.
“The Association is keeping an eye on you guys. And maybe…”
“Maybe?”
“I might try to commit you guys to something very important. Of course, it would be nice if you didn’t…”
A very important thing. It must be going to the ruins to find Azazel. The decision of whether or not to fall into the true ending can be made at the end of the vacation, so let’s improve our skills until then.
“If so.”
“You mean it might be difficult with only B-class, right?”
“Yes. It’s good that you know it well even if you don’t say it. What are you planning to do during vacation? Return to the orphanage?”
“No, it’s just training. But why?”
“No. Cadets who don’t return can stay in the dormitory, so they have to submit an application. It’s okay for a day or two, but I have to use it for a long time.”
I shrugged her shoulders and waved a piece of paper around, but I don’t think I’ll have time to stay in the dormitory for a long time except for a day or two.
“Really? Then… Have a good vacation. I’ll call you.”
“Yes. But which ruins are we going to?”
“I’m not sure yet… But it’s most likely European. At least intermediate.”
It’s an intermediate level ruin. The minimum cut there was B grade or higher. And you’ll have to do quite a bit of raiding the ruins.
“Can you tell who is participating?”
“Aside from Yangjun and me, nothing has been decided yet. I’ll let you know when the details are decided.”
“Okay.”
Instructor Yangjun is also participating. That’s great. Anyway, having a reliable dealer is a reassurance for Buffer.
Her I greeted her and came out of her. I watched the other cadets enter and then turned to her. I’ll have to go soon
As I left the building and walked to the place I had promised with Elizabeth, I felt someone tap me on the back lightly.
“Hey! Are you leaving now?”
“Huh? Huh. Why are you alone?”
It was Yoo Choa. She is not like her who always had her friends around her.
Looking towards her bench, there is a can, and it seems that she was drinking a drink by herself.
“Ah. All my friends are gone. I’m thinking of staying in the dorm.”
“Really?”
“Yeah. He told me not to go because he said he had to train more. Hey, John. I’m sad!”
You’re laughing too much to be sad. I stroked her hair. She seemed to feel better as she gently hugged me around the waist.
“Anyway… I heard from Elizabeth that you’re going to be in England for the first week?”
“Huh? Did you hear that? Yes. I have some work to do in England.”
“Uhhhhh. Just because there are two of us, we’re just going out of our way, aren’t we?”
“Ohohohoho!! I’m going! I’m going! I’m going to go ahead!”
I turned my head at the voice I heard then. It was Elizabeth and Jin Shi-yeon who had brought their belongings.
Surprised by their appearance, Yuchoa grumbled with her pouty face.
“Isn’t that too much? I’m just going to the ruins! We’re not alone!”
“Hohohoho! That’s the difference between you and me!”
“Cheheheh. Siyeon-ah. You won’t do that, will you?”
Jin Si-yeon secretly avoided her gaze. She wept as she grabbed me, Yuchoa, who was trembling with her shocked face like a betrayed Caesar.
“Ahhh! John! They’re harassing me!”
“Okay. Okay. After raiding the ruins, let’s go have a little fun.”
“Really?! Exciting!”
It’s fortunate that the change of mood is quick. So when she arrived at the gate with the three of them, Jin Shi-yeon looked at me and said seriously.
“Please take care of yourself. It’s not easy being trained by the Taylor family.”
I am going to England this time to experience the full-scale Taylor family’s training method.
And maybe I should go to the dungeon with old man Breath.
A day at most may be all you need to do touring the UK.
“Then see you after school! Come on! Let’s go! John!”
“Okay. See you next time.”
“I’ll contact you!”
“Me too.”
After being greeted by the two, Elizabeth and I moved through the gate. When I arrived at the gate, it was early in the morning, so the surroundings were dark.
“Shall we go to the mansion first?”
When I got down from the gate, I saw a limousine waiting. The driver who had picked us up the other day moved Elizabeth’s luggage.
“Ohohohohoho! Thanks!”
“No, lady. And… Breath is waiting for you.”
“Oh my God? Is it this time?”
“Yes. The young lady and her best friend have been waiting eagerly for you to come.”
Looks like I’ll be training as soon as I arrive.
I entered the limousine and the car moved without any vibration. The place he moved to was a large mansion in downtown London.
She got out of the car first, opened the door for me, and stood in front of the front door of the mansion. She then smiled sweetly, with a dignified salutation that lifted her skirt slightly.
“Welcome to the Taylor family. Elizabeth of the Taylor family has her honored guest.”
Watching the courteous courtesy of an aristocrat gives me admiration. Certainly, nobles are nobles. Seeing her noble appearance, I hesitated for a moment, then put her hand on her chest and bowed her head.
“Thank you for your courteous hospitality. This is Kim Yohan. I hope to learn a lot from the Taylor family.”
Is this enough?
I raised her head slightly and looked at Elizabeth, and she held out her hand, amused.
“I’ll escort you then. Let’s go.”
“Do I need to hold your hand?”
“Oh, that’s Taylor family courtesy.”
Is that so? I don’t know much about this, so just do what you’re told.
When I took Elizabeth’s outstretched hand and entered her mansion.
“hahahaha!!! Welcome!!”
A huge person fell from the second floor of the mansion.
A man with bulging muscles. He is the head of the Taylor family and is currently an S-class hero. It was the appearance of Breath Taylor.
Hero Landing is cool, but are you going to leave the stairs next to it and cook the soup…
“Hmm? Why are you guys holding hands?”
“Huh? This is the Taylor family’s way of escorting…”
Receiving the old man’s puzzled gaze, I quickly turned her head and looked at Elizabeth.
She grinned and flicked her tongue.
You cheated!
You look like a cute guy!
