The Academy's Barbarian-Chapter 21

“It's destiny.”
“Yes?”
What is this all of a sudden?
When Verzee asked back as if he was flustered, Stella abruptly left the seat. Then he uttered a voluptuous speech with a face filled with excitement..
“This is a blessing the Holy Ghost has sent me. That guy, Uhlan must be a monster hunter. it's fate!”
“Calm down and speak slowly.”
Stella explained what had happened on the monster hunt. Afterwards, when the explanation was over, Verse was surprised..
“5Defeated a star monster in 13 seconds?”
“yes It was even a two-headed dragon known for being tricky to hunt! 'Cause I chopped it down with an ax?!”
Ulan's battle was so impressive that she even staged a reenactment in which she wielded a candelabra on her desk like an axe..
“Bold judgment and guts, plus innate strength. If the skills of a hunter are added to this, Ulan will become a legendary monster hunter who will represent the Empire in the future.!”
“that, that's right I understand.”
First of all, I think I know that Stella values Ulan quite highly. But then, Ethan snorted her..
“Hey, what a monster hunter.”
“what's up?”
“I will raise him as a soldier. I'll make it a secret weapon to wipe out the cultists in the southern desert in the future..”
“no! No matter how senior you are, you can't yield. Ulan is a hunter by profession. The number of monsters on the Eastern Front is increasing even at this moment.!”
two people raising their voices.
Apparently, Stella isn't the only one targeting Ulan. Verse pressed his fingers through his throbbing head..
“……Calm both of you. 'Cause I haven't heard the last opinion yet.”
As soon as the words are over.
All eyes turned to one place.
‘It was Dipplin Chernio, deputy superintendent of the magic detection test and dean of the Faculty of Magic..
Facing the pouring gaze.
Dipplin grinned..
“He has enormous potential.”
“potential power? What potential is it specifically??”
“that…….”
I was speechless for a while.
The biggest potential is, of course, the fact that there are two mana bowls..
‘But you better keep this a secret.’
Right now, there are two wildcats targeting Ulan. However, if it is known that there are two vessels of mana here,?
The wild beasts will increase uncontrollably.
In other words, there is nothing good about Deflin..
So let's buy some time.
At least until the purpose of the study is achieved.
“I'll have to look into it a bit more to find out, but if you look at it right now, it's comparable to Arpen's magical genius..”
“If it's Arpen's Magical Genius…….”
“Are you talking about Dylia Arpen? I'm sure she heard that she passed second place..”
“that's right. He is the disciple I taught..”
Dipplin's nose rose..
Leaving this behind, Berger summarized the opinions of the supervisors..
“amazing A person with considerable talent in both combat and magic..”
The wrinkled corners of the mouth lifted slightly..
It was with interested eyes.
“From the academy's point of view, it's like a pumpkin rolled into the vine, but…….”
Verse, who was speechless, frowned..
A look that is worried about something. Ethan noticed this and asked cautiously..
“Do you have any concerns?”
“there is But it's not the academy's problem. Exactly, it's a matter related to the empire..”
Berger immediately replied.
As if waiting for you to ask.
“However, everyone gathered here has ties to the Empire, so I'll be honest. but before that…….”
“If it's silence magic, I spread it a long time ago.”
“Thank you. then tell me right away.”
When the last problem was solved, Bergé did not hesitate to tell his true story..
“I think everyone knows that there is a recent movement in the Empire to expand its territory centered on the great nobles..”
All three nodded..
This is because anyone who has anything to do with the military or the great nobility knows it..
“But in the military, this situation is not welcome. Because the empire hasn't found stability yet to start a war..”
It had only been 5 years since the end of the Western War, in which Verse himself participated. But again, it was too early to talk about war..
Meanwhile, as soon as the words are over.
Ethan crumpled his face..
“The central guys can't do this. Do you know what kind of kid's game war is? You have to go out on the battlefield and roll around like a dog to come to your senses.”
“Lower your voice! What if someone hears.”
“There's a silence magic, so what's up??”
“Still!”
Stella looked around..
It's because it was such a sensitive statement..
On the other hand, Berger and Dipplin did not particularly restrain this remark. Because we had similar thoughts.
“That's why I'm looking for a way to expand my territory in a moderate way rather than a coercive way. With the intention of avoiding war at all costs.”
“That's an ideal idea..”
“yes. It just seemed like a possibility. Thanks to Ulan, the top passer of this entrance exam..”
Why is Ulan suddenly appearing here??
Curiosity dwelled in the three eyes..
Verze took out a stack of papers from a drawer and put them on the desk. It was a confidential document with the official seal of the Imperial Intelligence Department..
“This year, the Empire's intelligence department researched the barbarians in the borderlands. According to this, Ulan is said to be the successor of the 'Bator Clan' in the grasslands beyond the northern snowy mountains..”
The Bator clan is a tribe that boasts a considerable scale for barbarians in the frontier. It is said that if you gather all the clans scattered throughout the plains, there will be over 10,000 people..
The second son of a chieftain who leads such a tribe.
This was Ulan's identity.
“Ethan, would you know? The criteria by which the barbarians on the outskirts choose the next chieftain..”
Edan once fought against barbarians in the eastern jungle for three years. So he knew more about barbarians than anyone else..
“yes. Barbarians obey the stronger. So even the chieftain can only become a strong warrior who has passed the warrior's ordeal..”
“So, from your point of view, what are the chances of Ulan becoming the next Chieftain??”
“I don't know how strong the barbarians beyond the snow mountain are, but if they're on par with the barbarians in the eastern jungle, it's 100%..”
An answer with strong conviction.
As soon as those words were finished, Dipplin's palms strongly met. match! to the extent that it sounds.
“Oh, now I know.”
After focusing everyone's attention.
Dipplin smiled like a crescent moon..
“So, the purpose of Dean Erkazan is to make Ulan feel friendly towards the Empire.?”
“That's right. The real goal is to go one step further and make him completely on the side of the Empire..”
Ulan, heir to the sizable Bator clan in the North.
If the next chieftain sided with the powerful, he might be able to accommodate the savage tribes of the steppe in a moderate way..
This was Berger's idea.
“Seems worth a try.”
“I don't know about other areas, but the grasslands beyond the snowy mountains can be expanded without war..”
Ethan and Stella answered in turn..
Dipplin, too, thought for a moment and then nodded. As if agreeing with Berger's opinion.
“Well it's decided.”
Unanimous. Berger grinned..
it was a satisfied smile.
“From now on, I hope you will accommodate Ulan as much as possible. While he attends the academy, so that he can feel the great culture and greatness of the empire..”
Let's enlist Ulan on the side of the Empire and devour the northern border without war..
It was the moment when a plan only the four knew was born..
“And if professors from other countries show suspicious behavior or covet him, report it to me immediately. I will do it separately.”
“Yes, I understand.”
The meeting ended with three answers..
The day the academy's finalists were announced.
Ulan has a strong backing. A secret background that the person in question does not know.

dawn the next day.
Ulan woke up and opened his eyes..
The first thing I saw was an unfamiliar ceiling. Then I saw a bed, a chair, and a desk. Then, the memory of yesterday came back again..
‘Yeah, I was assigned a dorm room.’
After the announcement of the successful applicants yesterday.
Dormitory assignments were made immediately..
In principle, the dormitory was for two people per room, but in particular, the top 10 students with excellent grades were given one room per person..
The same goes for Ulan, the top passer..
I just had one question.
“But why am I sleeping on the floor?”
Ulan woke up on the floor.
And right next to it was a bed with a soft duvet. But why did I fall asleep in a place like this??
When I was looking around.
Suddenly, something caught my attention. It was an open booklet on the desk..
“that…….”
After entering the dorm yesterday.
It is a guide book received from the supervisor. A booklet containing basic information about Arsene Academy and what to keep in mind while staying in the dormitory.
and the moment I saw it.
Suddenly, the memory of yesterday came to mind.
‘Yeah, while I was reading the booklet…….’
I was suddenly drowsy and collapsed.
It seems to have fallen asleep after that. Recalling yesterday's situation, Ulan sat down at his desk again. He was in order to reproduce what he had seen in the booklet..
“The training period of Arsene Academy is 4 years.”
Each grade is identified by the color of the tie..
1Grade 2 is red, Grade 2 is blue, Grade 3 is purple, and Grade 4 is black..
“Dormitories vary according to grade level..”
Arsene Academy is divided into four dormitories for each grade level, and each grade and gender uses a different dormitory..
The dormitories were named according to the seasons, with freshmen wearing spring crowns and fourth graders wearing winter crowns..
“The entrance ceremony is tomorrow morning. Classes are assigned immediately after the entrance ceremony,…….”
When I slowly recalled the memories.
My head suddenly throbbed. Headache that came on suddenly. Ulan narrowed his forehead and suddenly remembered the 'real reason' he fell asleep yesterday..
Azuh said this before.
There is a limit to the amount of knowledge each person can accept at one time. And Ulan said that the limit was a little lower than the others..
right after thinking about it.
Ulan looked at the booklet again..
The booklet was quite thick. It probably contains a vast amount of information as thick as it is..
However, I forgot Azuh's advice and tried to accept all the information. As a result, her head was overloaded and she must have fallen asleep..
After realizing the truth of yesterday.
Ulan silently nodded..
“I can't help it.”
Let's take a quick look at the booklet.
'Cause I can't faint again.
You can only read one page a day.
After thinking, I lay down on the floor again..
However, as I stared at the scenery in the room, for some reason, I felt my heart suffocate..
And I soon realized why.
“too narrow.”
In fact, it's just the right size for an average student..
However, it was too narrow for Ulan who grew up in the meadow. Especially since Ulan reached 2m in size..
“Shall we run around.”
I think the stuffy feeling will disappear if I get some fresh air. After judging, Ulan left the room. But soon stopped at the entrance.
【Crown of Spring - Notice】
【The front door is currently unavailable.】
【Access prohibited hours: 22:00 - 07:00】
【Penalty points will be awarded for going out without permission.】
Notification that you cannot go out.
The same goes for the back door and the side door..
However, there was only one place where the warning sign was not attached. It's the window in the room.
“I guess it's okay to go out the window.”
If I couldn't go out the window, I'd put a warning here too..
After simple inference.
Ulan opened the window. Then he jumped straight down to the 5th floor..
8page. lets be friends
