033. Zeroth Tarbella (1)
Why is this guy here?
For a while to think.
I realized that being here is natural.
Act 2 begins when Zeros Tarbella is dispatched as an inspector of the academy.
All the culprits are these children.
It doesn’t matter to me, but it’s natural that it’s awkward. It’s because his personality fits so well.
When I think of the original story, it is right that this guy is in the academy now.
Without an attendant accompanying him, he must be quietly appreciating the atmosphere of the academy.
The words are getting the mood, but the truth is that they are planning bad things.
Even so, I didn’t expect to meet this guy while walking.
“Yes.”
Read at noblemtl. com
Keeping in mind that I am a pure freshman, I replied.
“Where should I go to meet Pompey?”
See what he’s talking about to Pompeyouson, who’s a lot older than himself. That’s what the principal is.
Seeing him call me by name just because he doesn’t exist, it’s quite understandable.
“If you’re looking for Jungang-dong, that’s over there.”
That’s it, and since you asked, you should answer. I pointed my finger and pointed out the middle east.
Zeroth moved his gaze to the direction my finger was pointing.
blonde hair and blue eyes. Since he is related to Cain Abella, he has many similarities with her.
Although they don’t resemble each other in terms of personality.
“Thank you.”
Zeros thanked me for being disgustingly polite.
‘Would you like to build a good image?’
Anyway, this guy takes care of one image of himself.
Especially with that handsome appearance and from a famous family, he belongs to the Royal Knights. It is a condition that can not form a fan club among female cadets.
That’s why you live more in your own taste, and you must be conscious of others’ gaze.
After saying thank you, Zeros turned and walked with an exaggerated movement. A red cloak fluttered.
Then he stopped.
“Oh yeah.”
Zeroth turns to me again.
“Come to think of it, I have a pretty good physique. Are you a combat cadet?”
“That’s right.”
Whoa. He had his arms crossed and a look of interest. Since he will be newly appointed as a combat instructor, I wonder if he is interested.
“What is your name?”
Zeros slightly raised his head and asked. Arrogance is evident in every action.
I hope it turns off soon.
“This is Arren Blackfire.”
“Arenble… … ?”
“Blackfire, yo.”
The corners of his mouth twisted slightly. I thought this would be the reaction.
It’s strange that the elite of the families loyal to the royal family are happy to hear my name. Even Cain made a fuss with me at first.
However, this guy is not the kind of person to openly f*ck. It’s because he’s the kind of guy who slowly pisses people off.
“Right.”
he turned back
“Cadet, like a cadet, go back to the dormitory early.”
That was a kind of warning. To show off your authority figure.
There is no reason to get caught up in the pod here. I was still trying to go back.
After answering that I’m okay with it, I went back to the dormitory.
I felt like I was stepping on poop while taking a pleasant walk.
* * *
For the next few days, I quietly lived in the dormitory.
Except for wielding the holy sword in the forest near the Magical Zoo and Zoo at night, I spent everything reading black magic books or sleeping.
It’s because there won’t be many times when I can take a nap when I go to the academy again.
It was the last day of vacation, when I was enjoying my free time.
jump!
The door opened out of nowhere, and someone entered in a commotion.
‘The thing to come has come.’
The quiet dormitory life is now over.
“Aren! Aren! How long has this been!”
It was roommate Victor.
It was to the extent that a man with a good physique could hardly bear what he had packed so much in both hands.
“Can you help me with this?”
I took the object from his grunting right hand.
It was heavy. I could feel the liquid moving.
This is 100% alcohol.
I’m sure of Viktor’s expression, excited at the thought of drinking already.
“Hwiyu- Thank you! Aren. You were there first too.”
“About three days ago.”
“I see! Nice to see you again, Aren!”
It’s also upsetting. No audio for a moment.
I forcibly accepted Viktor’s harsh request for a handshake.
“By the way, Aren.”
“yes?”
“How could there not be a single letter during vacation! This senior was disappointed.”
“… … .”
It’s a talent to spit out bullsh*t so cheerfully.
As I stare unresponsively, Viktor scratches the back of his head.
“haha… … He’s still a boring guy.”
Then, he began to unpack one by one.
“How many of his drinks did you bring?”
Viktor poured alcohol under the bed, but he asked why it wouldn’t stop.
“yes? Ah, this! Hehe. Do you know what this is all about? Aren?”
I just asked
Isn’t Viktor sitting on the floor like that and taking out all the drinks one by one, talking about what kind of alcohol it is and how old it was for about two hours.
Among them, there was a liquor made with mandragora root, which is nearly 150 years old. That looks a little pricey, but… … .
Anyway, since I was stuck listening to it, I almost lost my mind.
Victor, who had a vast knowledge of alcohol, said he was thirsty and opened the bottle before he could finish packing his things.
sniffling.
“Hmm… … taste good! ha! I couldn’t drink at church, so I almost went crazy. really… … It was hard.”
Victor droops his shoulders. Soon, with slow hand movements, he began to organize his luggage one by one.
Then, one thing stood out.
It was a rosary made of coral. It was something I had never seen before in the first semester. It looks like he’s got a new one.
“yes? Ah, this!”
Noticing that I was looking at the rosary, Viktor handed me the rosary and said:
“Now I have to prepare for graduation.”
“Yes.”
“You don’t know yet, but you have to clear at least an A-rank mission to graduate, right?”
This is a well-known fact. It’s because I’ve been through all kinds of outside missions.
“okay.”
“yes. So I got my secret weapon. I’m a priest, so I have to work hard while praying for a good cadet from another class.”
Victor boasted that this rosary doubled the blessing efficiency. I think you borrowed it because you begged your father.
My father is a cardinal, so I can have such a good item. The reality of this world is that it is difficult even to dream of a commoner.
I am also in a position to benefit greatly in this area.
“Aren, what about you? Did you bring any weapons for the second semester?”
“yes. I got it.”
“Five! Let’s see! Even if I look like an alcoholic, the academy is only 3 years! I’ll see if it’s a usable weapon. You said you were using a sword?”
I know very well that I am an alcoholic. Viktor was a guy who was subtly self-objectifying.
I took out the purifier I had stored in the shadow dimension.
It must have looked like magic pulling a sword out of the air.
“Hmm?”
Viktor looks at you in amazement.
You can’t hide it anyway, and it’s better to reveal it to Viktor if you want to be comfortable in the dormitory.
I was also curious about the priest’s reaction when he saw the holy sword.
“When did you learn such tricks! let me know too With that kind of magic, you can always take out alcohol!?”
… … this is not a reaction
“It’s a magic that only people from my family can master.”
I flatly refused.
The priest dares to learn black magic.
“… … Wouldn’t that be 150-year-old mandragora dipping wine?”
“yes.”
Now he refused without even looking at me. My eyes are fixed on the keying- and singing purifier.
“A ghastly boy. Let’s take a look at the sword. As cool as you are, I will be cold too.”
When he asked for the sword, he carefully handed over the handle.
“Well… … .”
Viktor examines the sword. But for some reason, the expression is not bright.
Viktor looked at the sword for a while and spoke cautiously.
“Uh, um. You know, Aren. You know well that I don’t usually say bitter things, right?”
“Yes? Yes.”
What else is he talking about?
“Hmm. Even though I’m not a fighter or a blacksmith. Isn’t this sword too much?”
“… … ?”
“How much did you pay for this? First of all, it seems that the blade was well sharpened and sold. young is bad It’s too plain. Even if you just wander around the market floor for 10 minutes, there will be plenty of better things than this, right?”
Viktor said that he had experience in his own way, and eagerly gave a good evaluation of the holy sword.
“On the surface, it’s just a mass-produced sword. Would you like to pay 100 gold for this?”
Turn this way, turn that way. No matter how you look at it, it feels bad.
It’s true that it looks ordinary, but you can’t feel the sacredness flowing from that sword?
I tilted my head.
“Isn’t it strange? you’re scammed Where are you! I’ll go and give it a go. Did you buy it downtown? yes?”
“Here you go, senior.”
“Tell me.”
“Can you really not feel anything?”
“Hmm?”
Viktor focused on the sword again. While frowning. Still, the answer that came back was the same.
“Because it is not. Well, I think you bought it because it looked good in your own way, but this one is cheap.”
Teeing-
Viktor hitting the blade with his finger. He returned the sword to me.
“Get something else. As a senior, I give you sincere advice. If you go out on a mission outside, you might run into some nasty monsters. Since it is a combat system, you should use a good weapon.”
What I can tell from this conversation is that no one else except me can feel any energy from the holy sword, Purifier.
It is absurd for a priest who uses divine power to say such a thing with the holy sword in front of him.
But there’s no way the status window can lie.
Fit: 100
I’m cautiously guessing that it might have something to do with fitness. It feels like you can feel the power of this sword only if you have the ‘Descendant of the Sword Master’ special skill.
In the end, that’s a good thing.
Its appearance is also ordinary, and other people do not feel the specialness of this sword at all, so they can carry it without any burden.
I actually brought a mass production sword just in case, but I don’t think I’ll need it.
‘I’m a little reluctant about this.’
* * *
It’s opening day.
You lose your energy, but you still have to maintain your dignity. I washed my body neatly with a body wash called ‘Ifmore’ that my mother had found in the East. Since this happened, the bath supplies were all replaced with new ones.
What is the scent… … .
not bad.
Although it felt a little idiotic, Delina had a good eye for herself.
The sweet scent and the cool scent are subtly mixed in, which is my taste in moderation.
Starting in the second semester, students must bring their own weapons to class. Usually, I use a weapon for practice, but I use it in my spare time to learn my personal weapon.
Besides, new instructors value ‘real combat’ above all else, so personal weapons are essential.
I took the holy sword and left the room.
The strict boundaries before vacation have been loosened.
Instead, strangers walked around in a line forming a heavy atmosphere.
He wears silver shiny armor and a blue cape, and holds a sword with a green magic stone embedded in a pommel.
Yes. Those guys are the Royal Knights.
Fostering talent in the Warriors is also a national business of the royal family.
such an important place.
Since something unfortunate has happened, elite soldiers have been dispatched.
And the person who came down as the head of the royal knights was Zeros Tarbella.
I will become a person who will make a loud appearance from the first class.
Seeing the royal knights like the dreams of combat cadets, the cadets on their way to school look up at them in awe.
It must be like watching an idol.
Cadets from other classes also came to watch and chatted, falling in love with that splendid and dignified appearance.
Like it or not, I went to the gym.
Since it was the first day, there were many cadets who arrived quite early.
After all, Ackerman didn’t look like a latecomer, and the rest of the main characters went to school without any problems.
And Cain… … .
As I was rolling my eyeballs here and there while looking for the main characters, our eyes met by chance.
Did they stare at each other for three seconds? I tried to avoid my gaze, but Cain started walking toward me.
I stared at him all the way, wondering why he was like that, and when he came closer, he said,
“hi? long time no see.”
I said a very awkward greeting and went away like the wind. It was as if I was passing by and just said hello! with the feeling that
Even walking with a gun seemed intimidating.
Whenever before vacation, when you say ‘hello and stay!’ It’s like saying hello to yourself first.
There are some very cute corners.
Well, judging from the fact that it hasn’t completely blacked out yet, there seemed to be no problem with the story progressing.
It seems that you are enduring the humiliation and sadness you endured throughout the vacation. Of course, the inside is festering.
If you’re lucky, you’re lucky.
When the hour came, the noisy gym was all silent.
It was because the instructors had arrived.
However, the cadets who had been silent began to open their mouths again, regardless of who said it first.
Of course, the appearance of a stranger among the instructors who walked proudly had no choice but to open their mouths.
Besides, it stands out very much. Given that he was an instructor, he was wearing the Royal Knights uniform, so it was natural.
‘He appeared splendidly from the first day.’
First, Gilliot stood in front of us.
“Long time no see. Gentlemen? Didn’t the boat get oily during the vacation?”
“Yes!”
roaring answer.
As it is a new semester, the enthusiasm of the cadets is also reset and burning.
“The answer is satisfactory. I will keep my eyes open and watch how hard you worked during the vacation.”
“Yes!”
“great. As you may have noticed, a new instructor came to the first year combat world. amazing… … .”
“All right. I can introduce myself.”
A man dressed as a royal knight interrupted Gilliot. He even stood in front of the cadets with a slight push on his shoulder.
arrogant attitude.
Gilliot stared at the back of his head in bewilderment, but soon suppressed his anger and backed away.
The cadets were a little puzzled, but when they heard his name, it didn’t matter.
“nice to meet. My name is Zeros Tarbella. By order of His Highness the King, I have been appointed as the Academy Inspector General and Combat Instructor from today.”
Zeros, who reveals his name with an arrogant tone in the world.
The cadets groaned.
It is safe to say that there is no combat cadet who does not know the name Zeroth.
This is because he is the leader of the assault force, one of the three organizations of the Royal Knights: the SS, the Search Corps, and the Shock Corps.
A seat that a cadet holding a sword longs to climb someday. The Royal Knights are such a place.
Naturally, the cadets were fascinated by him just by hearing his name.
eyes twinkle
Except for the two of us, Cain and I, who know his real face.
Especially in the case of Cain, fear, anger, disillusionment, tension. It was a face intricately intertwined with various emotional states.
“I guess this is the introduction. Without further ado, class starts right away.”
It seems that Zeroth wants to make an impression quickly.
When Zeroth’s words ran out, the instructors hurriedly gave instructions to the cadets, as if they had heard his words beforehand.
As the instructors casually passed by, ‘You, you!’ I decided on a pair while doing it.
The paired cadets stood facing each other.
“Cain Abella. Forward.”
Then, Zeroth said he would show a demonstration himself, and called Cain to the front… … .
“I finally met you. Aren.”
bung bung.
A man wielding a dazzling spear menacingly appeared in front of me.
It was Ponte who became more rambunctious between vacations.
The weapons were also quite good and seemed to be equipped.
“I waited only for today.”
Fonte laughs with delight.
Was he originally this obsessed with fighting?
I think it was a good idea to bring the holy sword.
