The Academy's Barbarian-Chapter 6

“what am i missing?”
“······Yes?”
“You gave the hero Ulan an ax made of bloodstone and a book. Then I thought maybe you could give me something too..”
Only then did Azuh realize.
That Noah wants something.
“Even if you want something different······.”
“Yes, I need travel expenses. It would take at least two months to get to the academy, but you can't just sleep on the floor all the time.?”
Noah asks for money as if he had been waiting.
After all, money is essential to living outside the meadow. Azuh handed Noah a pouch containing twenty silver coins..
“can this be?”
“It would be nice to go out for a while.”
smiley face.
This was not enough, so I was told to give more. After a long scuffle, Azuh finally lost most of his entire fortune to Noah..
Pouch of over a hundred silver coins.
Noah was finally satisfied with the thick sheep..
“Thank you, Master. Even if I go to the academy, I will do my best to devote myself to my studies so as not to tarnish Master's reputation.!”
“It's like this damn disciple. I don't have any more silver coins to give, so I'm just starting out!”
Ajuh frowned..
Noah left the cabin as if he were running away. Before long, Noah's presence completely disappeared. Left alone, Azuh shook his shoulders..
“at las······.”
finally both left!
her body jolted wildly.
Eyes drenched in emotion. Azuh, who was delighted, recalled what had happened..
about 10 years ago.
After a long wandering, Azuh returned to his hometown to spend the rest of his life comfortably. She used to live by giving some advice to her clan from time to time..
‘Then I picked up Noah.’
The reason I picked it up was simple..
It was because Noah's hair was the same black as Azuh's. She also needed a moderately useful servant, no apprentice,.
So, after accepting Noah in the name of a disciple, he worked hard for about five years, only cleaning, cooking, and washing clothes..
Then one day.
Returning drunk, Azuh taught Noah basic magic..
there was no reason.
It was just a whim caused by drunkenness.
More than anything, I didn't think much of it at the time. I won't be able to learn anyway.
But what is this?
Noah mastered all the basic magic arts overnight. Then Ajuh realized. That Noah has talent as a shaman.
‘······should have stopped there.’
It would have been fine if he had just taught the basic magic and passed it on, but Azuh didn't do that at the time..
Wanting to test the limits of my talent, I taught various knowledge and studies including witchcraft..
and the result.
3I was stripped of my money in a year.
‘So, it was a graduation exam, so I gave you an incredibly difficult assignment..’
‘This test, dubbed 'The Sorcerer's Test', was a very, very difficult test in which one had to complete one wish as a Shaman and defeat all the monsters roaming the plains..
However, Noah came back after finishing this in just half a year. Then Ajuh's worries multiplied to two..
He passed the hero's ordeal and proved himself to be the strongest warrior in his clan, but the stone-headed Ulan.
Noah, a sorcerer with a genius talent that is burdensome enough to wipe out his own money..
I gasped at the thought of having to teach these two giants. So, I tried to get out of this beggarly difficulty..
How to deal with both troubles.
Then, the idea that suddenly came to my mind was 'Arsene Academy'..
‘If you send them both to the academy······.’
Freedom at least until graduation.
Above all, the two of them will never have a high fever for learning. After graduating from the academy, I'm sure everyone will wander around the world and live their own lives..
In the distant past, as she herself was.
The moment I thought this far.
Azuh began planning to send them both to the academy. The result was a great success.
“Whoops, no one can disturb me now!”
I will not accept disciples from now on.
I just need to be quiet and get some rest.
Feeling happy just by imagining it. Ajuh smiled coolly with a much brighter face..
It was the laughter of those who regained freedom..
6.
dawn the next day.
The violent blizzard has subsided.
Ulan quietly left the village. It was dark because it hadn't dawned yet, but he wasn't worried. He was pretty bright at night..
all over!
When I was walking in the white snow.
In no time, we arrived at the entrance. And there she met her familiar face.
“older brother?”
Ulan's brother, Alkhbaatar.
He looked at Ulan with a confused face. As if he had guessed that Ulan would secretly leave the village..
“Ulan.”
Alc has spoken.
“Are you thinking of leaving already??”
“Yeah, 'cause the blizzard is over.”
Ulan nodded..
“······To be honest, I still can't believe it.”
While letting out a soft sigh.
Alc muttered with a complicated face..
“It was the same when you said you were going to give up the position of chieftain to me, but I never thought you would bring up the word that you were going to the academy..”
surprise, confusion, sadness, etc..
Various emotions were buried in the eyes that swayed like candlelight. On the other hand, Ulan's eyes did not waver at all..
“It's because I learned a lot through the hero's ordeal. That there are many things in this world that cannot be solved by force alone.”
In fact, that was not the only reason.
Still, when I say this, everyone nods. Ulan's attitude changed after he passed the Trial of the Hero..
Arc was no exception to this..
“i get it. If that's your decision, I'll respect it. Wisdom is necessary to become a great warrior..”
After respecting his will.
Alc's eyes no longer trembled..
“Then I'll tell you Ajuh's message..”
Seeing that it was a message, it seems that Azuh is not going to come here. But Ulan didn't care.
‘If it's goodbye, I finished it yesterday.’
So there's no need to be sad.
Ulan calmly lowered his head and listened to Azuh's message..
“The world beyond the meadow is very different from here. So always act prudently and keep in mind that hasty killing will result in disaster..”
I can roughly guess what the intention was..
It must be the intention to prevent Ulan from injuring or harming people recklessly. However, it is somewhat useless advice for Ulan now..
‘I know what you mean.’
In his last life, Ulan spent more than ten years outside the meadow..
That's why he knows better than anyone else that hurting or killing people will cause trouble..
“Second, I want to accompany Noah on the way to the academy. Since you two are alumni, I hope you get along well..”
“Noah?”
who is that?
Ulan tilted his head..
Then, there was a rustling sound in the bushes. Popularity felt immediately. After a while, a small girl appeared..
“uh, sorry for the delay!”
black hair and blue eyes.
In addition, the white skin that resembles snow. For some reason, the mysterious girl bowed her head in succession..
“When I'm about to leave, there's a lot more to prepare than I thought. really sorry.”
Alc waved his hands at the repeated apologies..
It's fine, so don't worry about it. Then she turned to Ulan again and said.
“That child is Noah. Noah Darshen. He is the disciple Azuh acquired about 8 years ago. He was said to be a child with excellent magical abilities..”
“······.”
Ulan narrowed his eyes..
Noah. Noah. Noah.
It's a name I can't remember no matter how much I think of it. I couldn't remember exactly whether Azuh had another disciple in the first place..
so i just decided to pass it on.
If I can't remember, it must mean that I'm not a very important person..
“Lastly, Noah is very knowledgeable, so you will learn a lot during your trip. So if you have any questions ask Noah.”
this is good news.
No matter how much experience he has of wandering outside the grasslands in his past life, Ulan still lacks learning..
“This is the end of Azuh's message. What follows is a personal story. what i want to tell you.”
“I will listen.”
Ulan politely replied.
Alc came to where he was. Then he tapped him on the right shoulder and said.
“First, wherever you are, you are a warrior of the steppe. So don't hesitate to act according to your will and beliefs..”
Identity and pride as a warrior.
It means don't lose it anywhere.
“second. you are never alone There is me, there is Azuh, and there are other warriors and clans. If you ever get into trouble, always ask for help. Because the warriors of the steppe will run wherever you are.”
It's comforting to say you're not alone.
Especially when leaving the village alone. A faint smile bloomed on Ulan's lips..
“Finally, don't forget that this is your home. You have a place to return to. Feel free to come back anytime.”
Words that make you feel comfortable just listening to them.
All of them are helpful to Ulan..
Ulan silently lowered his head. He meant to keep in mind. Then Alc smiled and joined Ulan's hand..
“go now On the day we meet again someday, I will also try to show a different side of me than before..”
“yes please be healthy.”
After exchanging farewell glances.
Ulan turned around.
Noah, who had been waiting, followed quickly. I could hear the sound of stepping on her eyes..
The two of us walking in the snowfield where the blizzard has stopped.
So, Ulan and Noah embarked on their journey. On the long, long journey to Arsene Academy.
