I Became the Villain’s Childhood Friend chapter 115

115 – [2] Can I ask you just one question?

#115

Golem, Overseer Ishmael turned around.

That point is either this side or me.

I didn’t know which one it was.

If anything was certain, it was that I could be included in that purpose.

It was also possible to interpret this as me among 250 people.

That was rather unlucky, so I tried to judge that I was looking at the people around me.

I wasn’t particularly special here, and I hadn’t done anything special lately either.

Rather, it was reasonable to say that I was looking at students who were somewhat unusual or poorly dressed around me.

That’s why I was relieved.

Supervisor Ishmael passed the time.

“There.”

A word that names someone.

It was rough because it was cold.

I thought I might feel a bit bad if I became the person involved.

Students within range looked at each other as if it were you or me.

“My white-haired elf friend there.”

But, I thought it wasn’t.

It didn’t seem like it was what I expected, judging from the bad mood.

In range, there were only me or a thousand white-headed ones.

Thousands of them had platinum hair, so there was a high possibility that it was me with silver hair.

“Blue-green eyes, you.”

“Yes.”

Damn, I was right.

Why did you choose me? Is it pure luck?

It was before that question even went away.

Supervisor Ishmael moved slightly in front of me.

“What do you think we will do today?”

It was the most stressful moment.

Even if it was a golem, it was in front of hundreds of people.

What’s more, I didn’t even watch the orientation video properly.

I looked around a bit before I came, but it didn’t look particularly memorable.

I remembered what I had left and what Shannon had said.

And summarized briefly and vaguely.

“Aren’t you practicing beyond the gate?”

“Yes, practice beyond the gate. But what exactly?”

“You mean exactly?”

Looking at this side, I sent a notice to come up with an answer.

But how do I know that?

I should give you at least the minimum information.

Deep learning works only when there is data, but how do you give an answer in a situation where you don’t know anything?

And in the ensuing silence, did he realize this contradiction belatedly?

The gaze that demanded an answer withdrew.

“…… Hmm. First of all, as everyone knows, the current situation beyond the Arecibo Gate can be summed up as sh*t.”

Destroyed academy, empty academy and—

“It can’t be broken, so monsters and dungeon gates are infested. On top of that, even beings that are unpleasant and unmatched roam around the Chareltea campus. Do you know what that being is?”

This time, the question was not directed at me.

Rather, it was directed at everyone.

Interestingly, unlike before, it wasn’t an answer I didn’t know.

This was an answer that could be deduced with a little thought.

“Aren’t they knights?”

However, other people did not give an answer, so I just opened my mouth.

Supervisor Ishmael nodded slightly as if he was correct.

“That is correct. But why did you think so?”

“Well, just looking at the number of knights who came during the academy attack last time, it wasn’t just a guerrilla level, right?”

“I did. There were a lot of them, including the guys from the Hero Academy.”

“There is no way that many people marched at once. There must have been a base established in the middle.”

Also, although the people of Palaistra Academy and the students were shooting as much as possible.

A significant number even retreated after a riot.

It made no strategic sense for them to march the long distance back.

There must be at least an intermediate base or something we don’t know about.

“Maybe it’s not just a base, but a base connected by teleport magic.”

“That is also the correct answer. Base, teleport magic. According to the CIA investigation, that’s pretty much the case. It is gradually becoming clear that there is a base where a teleportation magic circle is located near the Charelthea campus.”

A surprising fact.

The students murmured.

It wasn’t simply because they didn’t know the information, it was because the knife had reached under their chin.

This meant that if this gate were to be breached, the students would be exposed to direct threats.

It’s like a killer bastard moved within 100m.

Emotionally and rationally, it was impossible not to be shaken.

“No, then if the Chareltea Campus is occupied and the gate is breached, wouldn’t it be a street fight?”

“I hoped the rumors were true… ….”

“Tsk, I was wondering why the Arecibo street battle and defense plans were suddenly leaked to the academy community… ….”

“Aren’t you crazy? If the gate is breached, the student dormitory will be next?!”

“If I had known this, I would have gone to a residential area outside the city. ….”

“Teleport magic circle? Shouldn’t it be removed immediately? Why isn’t the academy getting rid of it?”

It was an amazing psychological effect.

The shrinking will was visible in real time.

“It wasn’t that much of a loss… ….”

That’s why they’re determined to commit terror.

As if inducing psychological warfare, it is beneficial to maintain the status quo by dragging out time like this.

It is also beneficial to destroy the rest of the academy by using the base for another teamfight.

Whatever it was, it was to make a profit strategically.

After all, manpower was rotten to them anyway.

“Also, it is said that the base is still functioning normally. Of course, it is presumed that not only knights of the middle and lower ranks, but also warrior candidates from the hero academy still come and go there.”

“A candidate for a hero? It must have been a f*cking field practice.”

It was a thousand pyeong.

Soon she maintained a pessimistic view, saying that she would put on a big political show.

“You can’t believe they’re walking right in front of your nose…… What in the world are you going to be…….”

It was Shannon’s opinion.

Soon she revealed her gaze mixed with regret for herself and the future of her academy.

Me? I was just so-so.

Anyway, after graduating from the academy, these guys will be more aggressive, so what’s surprising?

I just thought that there was one more annoying and threatening monster.

Director Ishmael looked at me again to see if he knew what I was thinking.

“Then I will ask again. Xian Kang, what exactly do you think we will do with the practice?”

What do you think you will do on the Chareltea Campus?

Clearing the dungeon gate, hunting monsters, and driving out miscellaneous things were common.

That was the problem the academy was facing right away, so this was the safest.

But looking at it differently, it was somewhat questionable whether it was urgent to drive it out like that.

Clearing the dungeon gate, hunting monsters, and driving out the world tree followers?

That could have caused problems.

Of course, the Chareltea Campus would have returned to the academy after the recapture work.

The problem was that the pro-World Tree countries, stimulated, could inject knights and aspiring warriors in large numbers.

If we fought like that on the Chareltea Campus, there would be virtually nothing left.

Even if you recapture it, everything will be destroyed.

So maybe it’s like this…… Maintaining the status quo…… In terms of loss…….

Wait, huh?

“Can I ask you one question?”

“What? It doesn’t matter.”

“How will the assets remaining on the Charelthea Campus be disposed of?”

Anyway, as of the current situation, students have to wander around there.

It means what to do with valuables and various personal items there.

Sending them over the gate without any countermeasures was tantamount to stealing the items.

The bigger problem was that it could have been fortunate if it was such a theft.

“I don’t understand.”

“What are you going to do with Palaistra Academy’s classified documents and key equipment? It’s something that can’t be left there like this, right?”

It would not have been taken by aspiring knights or warriors.

They don’t know how to use this tool, and they don’t really have the time to get one.

In other words, unless the academy collects it separately between the day of the terror and the beginning of the semester.

There was a high possibility that quite a few items on the Chareltea Campus would remain intact.

“… ….”

“Wouldn’t that cause problems in the future if it is stolen and damaged without permission?”

“…… So what exactly do you want to say?”

What do you mean?

Doesn’t it mean one thing if you add up what has been said so far?

“You’re not going to ask us to retrieve those items, are you?”

“Ah, Jiangshi. Isn’t that going too far?”

“Right…… The reason why the academy would mobilize us for such a thing in the first place…….”

“Well, he must have been smarter than I expected.”

“What?”

“Huh?”

That was the correct answer.

The academy had the intention of asking you to retrieve items scattered across a vast area.

“You are right. This basic hunting subject also includes retrieving key and personal items from within the academy. No, not inclusion, but one of the main ones.”

“Why the hell…… ?”

“Isn’t this the garbage collection you see in games?”

“We came to the academy to learn. You didn’t come here to do this, did you?”

“Anyway, it’s practice, so learning is right. But no matter how you look at it…….”

Questions popped up everywhere.

However, the academy had no other choice.

Due to the nature of the island, the number of manpower that can be mobilized immediately is limited, and the budget is on the verge of bankruptcy due to all kinds of additional expenses.

In this situation, the only thing left was to mobilize the cadets attending the academy.

You could say that the justification wasn’t enough, but there was one thing that was certain.

The situation around the world is changing rapidly, so it was just to prepare for the real battle.

In this dark reality.

Supervisor Ishmael pointed the finger at me.

“Not a bad insight. Xian Kang, you are an extra point.”

“Extra points?”

It was before the sudden words raised questions.

The hunter watch wrapped around my arm rang a short, thick beep.

What do you mean by a ring?

As soon as I raised my arm, the disparate elements were revealed.
