The Academy's Barbarian-Chapter 142

(2)

2.

6 p.m. sharp.

After class, Ulan headed to the street..

It's because Laurea and Ian promised to watch the festival together before they left..

After arriving at a street full of stalls, he looked around with curious eyes..

“It's bigger than I thought.”

At first, I guessed that it would be similar in size to the steppe tribe, but Ulan was mistaken..

The sight unfolding in front of my eyes was so large and splendid that I thought it was a city festival..

Around the time I looked around and headed to the meeting place, my steps suddenly stopped. Ulan then sniffed his nose into the air..

“this smell…….”

The smell of meat grilling over charcoal. As soon as I realized this, my stomach started to churn strongly..

growl!

Come to think of it, I haven't eaten anything since lunch. Perhaps that was why Ulan walked straight in the direction of the smell..

“We sell skewers!”

“From meat to seafood!”

After a while, the destination reached.

I could see the skewers being grilled over a charcoal fire. He stepped forward as if enchanted by his appetizing appearance..

“oh hello.”

“Can I get you a skewer??”

“can i eat?”

“sure! It's five fairy tales.”

The hand that was trying to grab the skewer stopped in the air at the answer that came back. It was because he realized he had no money. But he didn't have to worry.

“I'll pay, so give me one.”

“Oh yes! All right.”

Suddenly, a businesslike voice.

Along with pure white hands, a person with a tall body soon appeared. It was a girl with wavy blue hair..

Seeing her, Ulan widened his eyes..

It was because it was a face I remembered..

“you are…….”

“Nice to meet you, Ulan cadet..”

Iris Senior.

A second-year student in the military department, and a girl who participated in a friendly mock battle with Eloden. She was also the person who recommended inviting her to the next student council..

I just didn't have time to say goodbye.

“The skewers you ordered came out!”

Because the long-awaited grilled skewers came.

Food tastes best when it is warm, so Ulan immediately took a bite of the meat off the skewer..

well well!

Tender and fresh meat. The sauce on top is also moderately salty and delicious. Uhlan ate every remaining chunk..

A meal that ended like a crab closing its eyes.

Seeing the skewer with all the chunks of meat gone, Ulan licked his lips. It was because this alone was not enough to even send a message to the liver..

Did he notice that Ulan misses him? Iris suddenly spoke up..

“If it's not enough, you can do more.”

“really?”

“You've helped me a lot in the past. this is fine.”

Iris answered with a smile.

Ulan lowered his head with his eyes shining. She meant that she thanked her for the favor she had done her..

and immediately opened his mouth.

“I would buy everything here.”

“yes? this, all this?!”

It should be enough for 10 people?

Looking at the surprised student who asked back, Ulan silently nodded. After that, a rare scene unfolded where the skewers came out and disappeared..

Skewers that disappear without leaving any space on the plate.

Iris, who watched this wonderful scene, muttered with a puzzled face..

“W, you still have good taste.”

Then I immediately opened my wallet..

It was to check the money in hand. Fortunately, I had plenty of money, and as a result, I was able to see a little more rare scenery..

After a while, by the time the skewers on the charcoal were all gone, Ulan's meal was over as well..

“Did you eat satisfactorily??”

“soothed hunger.”

Even after eating this much, it only satiated my hunger.?

Iris had an absurd face. But she didn't show it, and she changed the subject..

“But are you alone today? Where do you leave the friends you used to hang out with?…….”

“I'm going to meet you from now on.”

“Oh, I see.”

After nodding one's head.

Iris suddenly brought out something. It was a promotional flyer full of colorful phrases..

“Then look around slowly and later, when the time comes, come and play with your friends..”

“What is this?”

“This is my restaurant.”

She revealed that she opened a restaurant with close seniors at this festival..

With the saying that they sell food that you can't find often anywhere else.

“As each country is different, there are various types of food. So there must be many new foods Ulan hasn't tried..”

“i get it. definitely visit.”

a variety of new foods.

Ulan, intrigued by the words, nodded and promised. After a while, he picked up his remaining grilled skewers and took his steps again..

how long has it been like that?

The meeting place appeared in the distance.

Together with the huddled party. But then, I saw people I couldn't see.

‘that…….’

Three male students who confronted the party.

One of them was pinned to the ground and the other two were screaming..

what's going on?

The time when I moved my feet with a curious mind.

“ah.”

Suddenly Noah's eyes met..

Spotting Ulan, she opened her eyes wide and immediately smiled meaningfully. After a while, the atmosphere in her hall cooled..

“what, what?”

“Why all of a sudden…….”

The male students who were confronting the party looked around as if they were embarrassed by the suddenly quiet atmosphere. Then, I opened my eyes.

“……!”

there is only one reason.

Because I found Ulan.

“Huh Eok!”

“you, you……!”

The two swallow the screams as if they are out of breath.

At the same time, the complexion became pale at once..

Ulan asked worriedly as he didn't look very well..

“Are you okay? I have a bad complexion…….”

“hey benefit!”

“oh don't come!”

But he's afraid to reach out.

The two hurriedly filled their seats. Male students screaming and running away. Why are you like that? When I looked at the scene with a puzzled face.

“Ulan!”

He heard a voice calling him.

Noah, Evela and Dylia.

The three of them came running in a month and smiled happily. In response, Ulan pointed in the direction the boys had fled and asked..

“Were these guys you know??”

“No, I saw you for the first time today.”

“It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, never mind.”

Ibela and Dillia shake their heads.

Then Noah asked a question..

“What do you have in your hand?”

“Grilled skewers.”

“……I hope it wasn't stolen?”

“bought with money.”

thank god. I wondered what would happen if I just brought it without paying the price..

Around the time I let out a sigh of relief.

This time, Ibella spoke up..

“Wow, that looks delicious.”

“actually delicious.”

Ulan nodded..

Eating almost all of them is proof.

“If you want to eat, give me a bite.”

“uh? maybe to me?”

“okay.”

I only had one mouthful left..

Meanwhile, Ibela was quite perplexed. Because, to all eyes, she looked like Ulan ate..

‘that is……!’

It means that lips touch indirectly.

When I realized this, I felt like my heart was beating fast. At the same time, my cheeks became more and more red..

Ulan, on the other hand, tilted his head. As if wondering why no answer came back.

“don't eat?”

“Oh no! Want some!”

Ibella, who came to her senses, closed the gap..

After that, he pursed his lips with a tense face. To put the last piece of meat in your mouth.

But at that moment.

snap!

There was someone who snatched a chunk of meat a step ahead. A girl with a body similar to Ybela suddenly appeared from behind Ulan..

“Ooh, it's a bit salty.”

“……!”

“Still good for snacks.”

The girl with turquoise hair smiled..

Ibela, on the other hand, crumpled her face..

“laurea!”

“huh? why?”

Laurea naturally asks back.

Ibela was at a loss for words at the shameless response, as if she didn't know anything. Then Laurea widened her eyes..

“Oh, did you try to eat?”

“okay! Ulan gave me…….”

“sorry. I'll buy you a new one instead. It's freshly baked and warm..”

Laurea grinned..

how is it? That's enough?

At the smile that seemed to say that, Ibela shook her shoulders. Cause that's not what she wanted.

“Forgive me for being late.”

the voice that followed.

It was Ian who arrived with Laurea..

“I packed my things so that I could leave tomorrow, so the time is like this.”

This was also an understandable reason..

If you want to enjoy the festival until late, you'd better come fully prepared to leave..

Then Ulan looked at Laurea..

It was because his gaze was drawn to him in a way that was quite different from his usual appearance..

First of all, he wore a black hat on his head, and he was wearing a sleeveless shirt that exposed his white forearms and shoulders..

The skirt was also not the long skirt I always wore, but a black skirt that reached above the knee..

‘and…….’

One more thing caught my eye.

A reddish color hovering over the face covered by makeup. When I brushed my teeth, she tilted her head, conscious of her gaze..

“Yes? what are you looking at?”

“You've been drinking.”

“Whoops, that's right. I know too well.”

After laughing in a low voice.

Laurea pointed to the sky..

“Thinking that it was the last night, I felt sad for some reason, and my voice was too loud, so I drank a little..”

The Holy Ghost whispers every night.

He replied that he drank because of the so-called 'voice of a star'. Then Laurea laughed as if she was telling her not to worry..

“Not much to worry about. you're still fine I didn't drink too much.”

“It doesn't look that way right now…….”

I think I'll get a lot of it soon.

It was because Ian found a number of alcohol bottles in his bag earlier..

Ian doesn't like to drink, so most likely that's what Laurea brought to drink..

Meanwhile, did he notice where Ulan's gaze was headed? She thrust her head into her abruptly..

“Shhh, that's a secret.”

Close enough to feel your breath.

Laurea stretched out her index finger and placed it on the bridge of her nose. Then I laughed out loud.

“That's a drink I brought to secretly drink with you later..”

“with me?”

“Yes, expensive and good drink.”

Ulan quickly closed his mouth..

It was because it was said that it was expensive and good alcohol..

After a while, the two exchanged glances and immediately turned around. As if we never talked.

“Alright then let's go?”

Laurea at the forefront with a smile.

The party followed with excitement..

It was to enjoy the first festival after entering the academy..

3.

After time passes and the sun goes down.

As the festive atmosphere matured, so did the voices promoting the stalls..

Talis Prutain was one of them..

“Come on, let's roll the dice!”

Faculty of Magic 3rd year, Talis Proutyn.

For him, this festival was a very suitable stage to earn pocket money. That's why I continued to promote the extension with a heated voice..

“You can get a variety of prizes just by guessing the numbers that appear and guessing them correctly!”

From beaded bracelets to dolls large enough to be used as pillows, and even expensive jewelry inlaid with silver or gold..

Is it because of these products??

A man and a woman walking down the street approached me.

The two of them look like freshmen.

Judging by the luxurious clothes, it is presumed that he was of noble origin. Talis, who noticed this, smiled kindly and said,.

“Take a look and go. If you have any questions, ask me anything.”

First of all, I set a certain interval so as not to be burdened. Then, the man and woman who were examining her dice and her products cautiously approached her..

“I have a question.”

“how do you do this?”

“Haha, that's simple. Throw the dice and guess the sum of the numbers that come out. The greater the sum of the numbers, the better the prize!”

Three dice are given to the challenger..

Anticipate the result of throwing it, write it down on a piece of paper, and roll the dice. Afterwards, if the prediction is correct, the product is won..

The two of them nodded as if they understood the simple rule. Then he looked at the prize again and asked a question..

“okay. then…….”

“What is the special prize over there??”

“Oh, that is a product that is paid when all the dice come out with the same number..”

For example, when you throw a die with the number 15 written down, if you get three 5's, you get a special prize..

And the special prize consists of products that stimulate material desire even at a glance. Most of them were made of silver or gold..

“How is it? Would you like to try?”

“yes i will.”

“The participation fee is one coin..”

Quite expensive for a single roll of the dice. But for a noble, it wouldn't be much money. Talis' prediction was correct..

What the boy held out was a silver coin..

It was with the words that I would try ten times.

I never thought I would meet such a big customer from the first customer. Tallis put on a big smile..

“thank you! then roll it.”

“Should I throw it at once?”

“No, you don't have to. As long as you can get in here, it's okay to throw it separately.”

He pointed to a circle drawn on the table..

After explaining all the rules.

Shut up! sniff!

The boy wrote the number '18' on a piece of paper..

A number that can only be achieved if all three dice roll a 6. If this is achieved, the best of all products is offered..

‘ring of light.’

A ring enchanted with light.

A ring of great rarity, equivalent to three gold coins in terms of price. However, Talis' expression was full of composure..

The reason was simple.

‘that's absolutely impossible.’

That dice is a specially made thing.

So no matter how many times you throw, the probability of getting a number greater than '5' is close to zero..

This is not the only trick that has been played out..

It is made using a special method so that no two sides can come out the same..

In other words, at the point of writing the number '18', the challenger could never win. There is no chance of getting a 6 on all dice..

‘Other than that, you can get lucky.’

Even if you hit it, it won't hurt much.

Most of the products were similar to or much cheaper than a large coin..

and the result.

The challenge ended in failure.

“…….”

Is it because I never hit it??

The boy's face darkened..

“Oops, I'm out of luck this time.”

Fearing that all of the challenges would fail, Talis made a fuss as if he had waited..

“Don't be too heartbroken. It's not easy even for me to get the number I want with the dice. Get this and relax.”

“This……?”

“It is a participation prize. It is a souvenir given only to those who have tried ten times..”

Beaded Crude Bracelet.

A fairy tale bracelet that can be obtained for about three coins..

Meanwhile, the boy's expression softened a little after accepting it. Talis laughed inwardly..

‘Of course.’

Because getting nothing and getting something are definitely different. So, Talis always presents a bracelet to the challenger..

After the two men and women disappeared from sight.

Tallis happily put the silver coin in her pocket. Afterwards, she sorted out the dice and shouted again in a heated voice..

“Come on, try throwing the dice! If you anticipate the number to come out, it is generous…….”

The moment I tried so hard to solicit customers.

For an instant, the hall became quiet..

what? The moment she looked around with a puzzled face, a group of men and women came into view..

a total of six men and women.

As he spotted them, Tallis felt his breath stop for a moment..

“……!”

It was because of the two girls in the lead.

Out of all the beauties I've seen so far, she's beautiful enough to be ranked first or second..

It was Ybela and Laurea..

Maybe that's why?

Talisman wasn't the only one who was distracted by the two. All the male students passing by stopped in their seats and stared blankly at the two girls..

but this didn't last long.

The center of the group that followed. When a large man with a top completely naked appeared, most of the eyes turned elsewhere..

young man with auburn hair.

Talis knows who he is.

Unprecedented freshman.

Terrorists at the entrance ceremony, etc..

The main character who spread countless rumors and the most famous person among the freshmen of the year.

‘Ulaanbaatar……!’

The moment I found Ulan.

Talis swallowed dry saliva..

A face full of fear.

This was partly because of the intimidation of his enormous size, but more so because of his recently revealed true identity..

‘……master's realm.’

A monster who became a master at the age of 17.

Talented people who receive the attention of all professors, and furthermore, there are rumors that foreign countries are already underway behind the scenes..

Maybe that's why?

Talis averted her gaze..

‘please don't come this way.’

I shut my mouth that was promoting.

It was because of my instinctive intuition that I shouldn't get involved with him. So he even prayed, but his prayers did not come true.

all over!

Suddenly, heavy footsteps were heard.

He turned his head with a puzzled face, and then his eyes widened. It was because Ulan, who had approached at some point, grabbed the dice..
