The Barbarian of the Academy - Chapter 152
(5)
9.
Pertisia Ib al Ruben.
Immediately after facing the white-haired girl who suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, Noah had no choice but to widen his eyes..
That's right.
According to the development and character settings of the original work, Pertisia should never have left the imperial castle until the empire was destroyed..
‘But why are you here?’
Noah was a bit perplexed..
and one more.
The surprising part remains.
It was a brown-haired female knight who spread wary eyes by Perticia's side..
‘Limer Yen Rapidis.’
Eastern Lightsaber).
The eldest daughter of the Marquis Lapidis family and one of the five Masters of the Empire, she is the only female Master throughout the continent..
Also, Rimmer was famous for being fierce and free-spirited, so there was only one person who could control her..
‘A man whom Rimmer serves as his lord.’
Chartres Monick Al Leuven.
The crown prince of the Ruben Empire and the new emperor to ascend the throne. He is the emperor of misfortune who will later be called the monarch of ruin..
Anyway, the fact that Rimmer, who only obeyed Chartrand's instructions, was protecting Perticia could be interpreted in this way..
‘In other words, Perticia is here…….’
It means that Crown Prince Chartrand also gave permission.
After finishing his reasoning, Noah made an even more puzzled expression. Because she did something she would never have done if she knew Chartrand..
Meanwhile, when she was in turmoil.
Perticia trotted toward Ulan. She then spoke with a smile on her face, like the first time she saw him..
“Oh, I want to eat here?”
“I think so.”
“it is delicious?”
“it's good.”
Ulan nodded..
Of course, it was an answer that couldn't be trusted straight away. He used to say that most foods that humans can eat are delicious..
“Then I'll do it here too!”
However, Pertisia, who did not know this, dyed her complexion brightly. She smiled as if she was happy, then looked back at Ulan and Noah..
“Oh right. If it's okay, can I join you? I have something I want to ask you two..”
“miss! that…….”
Belatedly aware of the sudden action, Rimmer tried to restrain her as if embarrassed. But Ulan's answer was faster than that..
“I don't care.”
“Then who is it??”
“yes? ah! me too i'm fine.”
Noah, who was out of his mind, nodded his head in bewilderment. Having obtained the permission of the two, Pertisia smiled brightly..
“Hehe, let's eat together then.”
with a satisfied smile.
A completely unexpected merger took place.
10.
Restaurant on the 1st floor of Hotel Parvo.
Four men and women sat around a large square table. Ulan and the others we had a conversation with at the entrance of the restaurant a while ago..
and that time.
Noah's face turned pale..
‘……I think I'll pretend.’
Feels like sitting on a cushion of thorns.
The reason was simple. for she had no conversation between herself and her four men and women..
Ulan was silently choosing what to order, and Pertisia looked at him as if observing him with a smile on her face..
Rimmer, on the other hand, watched Ulan vigilantly like a bristling cat..
‘furthermore…….’
Rimmer was not the only person escorting Perticia. Even at the six tables around the party, they glanced this way..
Familiar faces to Noah, who was a player.
Troops directly under the imperial family, the Royal Guard.
Eating in this situation is bound to make you feel like you're going to get sick..
But it can't be like this forever.
To escape the awkward silence, Noah deliberately let out an exaggerated cough..
“Big! excuse me…….”
Then I shut my mouth again.
It was because the moment I started talking to Perticia, the eyes of all the Royal Guards poured out at once..
An overwhelming feeling of pressure on the body.
Noah swallowed dry saliva..
“Bar, you just said you have a question for us. Can I ask what it is??”
“oh, that's it?”
Pertishia smiled brightly..
“Actually, I have a question.”
“what?”
“It's about Arsene Academy..”
“yes? why do we……?”
“That's right, you two are attending Arsene Academy..”
As soon as she finished answering
Noah widened his eyes in surprise..
After the meeting started, he introduced himself briefly, but he didn't say a word about going to Arsene Academy..
“how did you know that?”
Ulan also asked in a puzzled tone..
Of course, I have memories of my past life, but in this life, I hardly had a chance to meet Perticia in person..
So I asked, and soon the answer came back..
“Because it's famous. Rumor has it that for the first time ever, barbarian freshmen have entered Arsene Academy. Even two.”
Noah was immediately convinced by the answer that came back..
Perticia is the hidden princess of the empire.
At the same time, he is the only spiritist on the continent. If you use your identity and abilities, you should be able to get as much information as I just mentioned..
“Me, that's what I mean!”
Immediately after clearing the question.
Suddenly, her eyes twinkled..
“How is life at Arsene Academy? For example, the way classes are conducted or the dorm life.!”
Questions pouring in like a rapid-fire cannon.
It was Ulan who answered here.
It wasn't even a question that was difficult to answer. On the other hand, Noah looked a little puzzled..
‘why do you ask this?’
Perticia knows that Ulan and Noah attend Arsene Academy. It means you have enough power to get that information..
‘that is…….’
It means that he has the ability to obtain any amount of information about the academy. It is said that there is no need to ask while performing a joint session..
Noah's eyes narrowed..
For some reason, I felt strongly that I was hiding my true feelings. So she opened her mouth to inquire into her intentions..
“The meal you ordered is here.”
The table is full of dishes.
After that, the conversation naturally ended..
Perticia seemed to want to talk more, but she couldn't keep talking..
It was against etiquette to talk during meals. After a while, after the meal in a quiet atmosphere.
“wow, really?”
The conversation between Ulan and Perticia resumed..
Perticia poured out the questions she had been holding back during the meal like a rapid-fire shot, and Ulan continued to answer with his characteristic blunt tone..
The situation was such that Noah had no time to intervene in the conversation. When she let out her sigh with her frustrated face as she couldn't solve the question.
“I have something I want to ask you.”
An unexpected person has spoken to me.
The female knight who escorted Perticia.
Rimmer Jenn Rapidis. She looked at Noah with her characteristic expressionless face and asked..
“What is the purpose of coming to the capital??”
sudden question.
Rimmer's eyes were full of wariness, and his face was clearly unfavorable..
But there was no need to panic.
I had to answer the truth..
“It's vacation, but it's frustrating to be in the academy, and there are things to buy..”
“something to buy?”
“Yes, these are the materials needed for the experiment..”
it wasn't a lie.
Of course, the main purpose of coming to the capital was to search for hidden peace, but after the business was over, I wanted to get the materials needed for the experiment..
Dillia's half-brother, an experiment to create a cure for Rudine Arpen, who has become a disabled person..
Meanwhile, Rimmer kept his mouth shut..
It was because I couldn't get much income from the conversation with Noah. By the time the heavy silence fell on the table again.
“thank you for replying.”
The conversation between Ulan and Perticia is over..
A more cheerful expression.
As you can see, all my questions have been resolved. Subsequently, she revealed the reason for asking about Arsene Academy..
“Actually, I started attending Arsene Academy from the fall semester. So the story has become long because I have a lot of questions..”
“……!”
“So, if we meet later at the academy, please take good care of us then..”
Pertisia finished answering like a whisper.
Faced with her bright smile, Noah's eyes shook as if they were shaken. It was because it had never happened in all developments in the original work..
At that moment.
Suddenly, there was a guess that passed through my mind..
‘Did Laurea use her hand??’
likelihood of a variable occurring.
Could it be that he tried his hand to bring the seven warriors together in one place? After coming up with such a guess, Noah shook his head..
‘no, that's not it.’
It's an improbable guess..
Even if they tried their hand, it would be impossible to get the princess, who was determined and hidden from the imperial family, out so quickly..
‘then how…….’
Did the hidden princess Perticia enter the academy??
Noah, who pursed his lips, recalled the memory of playing as Perticia. Then, out of the blue, she had a fact..
‘oh, that's right!’
As a result of pondering.
Perticia in the original work had only once escaped the imperial castle before the empire collapsed..
The day her half-brother, Crown Prince Chartrand, purged the other siblings and ascended to the throne.
‘Pertisia came out of the imperial castle and stayed in a villa in the northern outskirts for about a week..’
They had evacuated to a safe place in advance, avoiding the imperial castle that would become a battlefield. Her crown prince, Chartrand, cherished her terribly..
‘and…….’
Sooner or later the purge day will come.
With that in mind, it wasn't that he couldn't understand why Perticia was coming to the academy. 'Cause she's only changed her refuge.
‘But this too is just speculation.’
Above all, the unanswered question was that a villa in the northern outskirts would be much safer than Arsene Academy..
back to square one situation.
Around the time when they were biting their lips at the unresolved question, Perticia and Limer got up from their seats after they had finished speaking..
“Excuse me, we have business. Then see you later at Arsene Academy.”
After saying goodbye.
The two soon left the restaurant..
Then, the royal guards at the tables around them got up and left one by one..
some time after that.
“haaa.”
Noah let out a sigh he had been holding back..
As the tension in my body was released, a strong feeling of fatigue came over me. She only ate, and she wants to go back to bed..
“Must have been an uncomfortable seat.”
“why do you think so?”
“I hope you have that kind of face.”
“……You don't notice where it's really needed, but you're sharp in this way..”
“this is where you need?”
“heh, nothing.”
Noah turned his head away..
But that's for a while. She agreed with Ulan, slightly drooping her shoulders..
“Anyway, starting with the answer to the question, it's true that it was a bit uncomfortable..”
It wasn't a joke from the start.
After the meeting with Perticia was completed and right before he left, Rimer scattered a strong aura and was wary of Ulan..
where is that?
I couldn't even eat properly because of the pressure from the Royal Guard. On the other hand, Ulan, who heard the whole story, was insignificant..
“I was worrying for nothing.”
“Write, it's useless?!”
“okay. I was by your side.”
Ulan nodding his head.
His whispers soon followed..
“No one here can harm you. 'Cause even if he tried to do something stupid, I would have stopped him.”
“that…….”
I was speechless for a moment..
because I suddenly realized.
The fact that he was recognized as a colleague by Ulan. The moment he realized this, Noah laughed out loud..
“Iknow, right. It was a useless worry.”
Ulan said.
If you ask for help, I'll be happy to help..
not alone anymore So she nodded her head with a bashful smile..
“I'll keep that in mind in the future.”
that Ulan will always help.
After that conversation is over.
The two immediately left the restaurant..
As I was briskly walking, thinking about today's schedule, Ulan suddenly opened his mouth..
“Come to think of it, I have a question.”
“huh? what is it?”
“Have you ever lived in Pertishia??”
In the past, when Noah was Yu Minah, she lived the lives of many others as a player..
Then, of course, there must have been times when she lived as Perticia. To Ulan's question, Noah readily nodded her head..
“sure. maybe the most?”
“how many?”
“Even just thinking about it right now will exceed ten times. No, if you include all the short ones, it's over 20 times..”
“so many?”
“yes, it was comfortable.”
Perticia is a character who cannot leave the imperial castle until the empire is destroyed..
So, it has the advantage of being able to develop strength without having to go outside, while ensuring safety in a specific space..
“I think it would be frustrating though.”
“It's surprisingly comfortable. If something inconvenient happened, the spirits would help with anything..”
Moreover, even after joining the hero's party, he rarely fought directly. Because Pertisha was a bard, her support position,.
“Of course there were downsides too..”
“what is that?”
“Prince Chartrand..”
Noah crumpled his face..
Meanwhile, Ulan tilted his head..
“I'm a prince?”
“Chartres and Monic Al Leuven. I haven't heard from Pertisia in my past life?”
“Um, I don't remember..”
“Really?”
“Yeah, that's the first name I've heard of.”
Noah blinked in surprise..
Then I got it right away.
“Well, maybe it is. Because it came out as an accidental event in the original work as well..”
Other warriors reveal their pasts when their intimacy is accumulated above a certain level..
But Pertisia is an exception..
Regardless of intimacy, she confesses her past to other warriors only when a certain unexpected event occurs..
In other words, this sudden event did not occur in Ulan's past life..
After understanding the situation.
Noah turned around.
“You'd better hear this directly from Perticia. It's a bit sensitive.”
“i get it. don't do that.”
Ulan silently nodded..
To be honest, I was a little curious, but I quickly gave up my interest when I heard that it was a sensitive story..
If that's the case, just like Noah said, it's the right thing to hear directly from Perticia herself..
“Alright, let's go too.”
Today's schedule is quite busy..
I had to collect 15 hidden pieces spread around the outskirts of the capital and even collect ingredients for a medicine to treat Dillia's half-brother..
Ulan and Noah headed to the outskirts of the capital..
There was just something I didn't notice.
It was the fact that a light firefly, invisible to the public eye, was staring at the back of the two as they moved further and further away..
