Became the youngest disciple of God of War - Episode 122

Is this someone who looks incredibly similar??
Or sisters?
For a moment, I felt a strong sense of discomfort that made me think that way..
But no matter what, my eyesight isn't so poor that I can't recognize a single person..
‘Seren is correct.?’
When I look closely, I can't even make eye contact and my attitude is hesitating.…….
It's refreshing to see that kind of attitude on Seren's face..
“What? Why doesn’t this formality suit me??”
“Uh, uh… really… … ! It did. hot hot.”
hot hot?
“The weather is really nice today?”
“…….”
How on earth should I accept this?.
If I'm not looking at something and the person in front of me is the real Seren…….
There are two possibilities that I can think of right now:.
This guy's personality has changed drastically in the past 4 weeks..
Either that or he's acting..
Of course, I don't know if the timid appearance I see now is an act, or if the grumpy side I've seen so far was an act..
“Hey you-.”
“ah… … ! Well, I have some urgent business in mind, so I’ll just go! No, I'll go! So goodbye!”
Seren left the room without saying anything..
It won't be difficult to chase after…….
I thought it was very rude to forcefully chase after him when he was so blatantly avoiding the place..
If you ask me since when did I become so polite, I have nothing to say..
“I don't know.”
Maybe it's because I'm hungry, but I feel dizzy..
The fact that Seren is here means that the graduation ceremony has not yet started, so I should stop by my parents' house and fill my stomach before starting..
* * *
retreat.
[The hellish schedule, also known as the ‘6 Weeks of Despair’, has finally come to an end..
“This day is really coming…….”
“Are you crying??”
“Yes, I cry. Fuck… … . I'm so happy I'm crying.”
“I will be really good to my mom and dad from now on..”
“It's a decision that won't last even a month..”
6After six weeks that felt like years, everyone in Yeongdo was discharged with tears of emotion in their eyes..
Now, Badniker was receiving the utmost hospitality in the garden of the main house..
“ah… I missed this fatty meat so much…….”
“What's this? They say it's fish roe.?”
“Wow, you can only eat this in port cities.!”
“This is a butterfly drink. Did you soak the butterfly??”
“Wow. i never eat.”
“It is said to be excellent for increasing mana..”
“omg.”
The parade of food that made your upper legs bend was so luxurious that it was worthy of the name Badniker..
Even nobles who were picky gourmets would widen their eyes..
Of course, there is a reason why I was forced to have cheap tastes because of the retreat..
The banquet was much smaller in scale than the exchange meeting that followed the blessing ceremony, but it was more lively than then..
Most of the people who filled the positions were descendants of noble families, that is, descendants of [great families], but was it because of the six weeks of training?.
Most of the Youngdos, at least for this moment, put the idea of etiquette out of their minds for a moment..
There would be no one around to make a fuss anyway, and most of the young people enjoyed the atmosphere by laughing and chatting superficially..
“…Cheers to Rex.”
“He was a good guy. Damn it…….”
Of course, there were also leaders who lost fellow team members or friends..
They were not caught up in the atmosphere of the banquet and quietly commemorated their friend at a distance away..
‘It's really over..’
Evan Helvin was still a little dazed..
I still can’t believe I graduated..
In fact, this banquet is also a trap prepared by the instructors, and the real final test remains! … Even if there is a twist, I wouldn't be that surprised..
Hehehe-.
Now the slightly warmer night air caresses my cheek..
The light of the street lamps, the scent of food, and the noisy voices of the leaders came as a pleasant noise..
I haven't had a single sip of alcohol, but somehow I feel intoxicated by the atmosphere..
“What will Evan do now??”
Then I heard Charles' voice..
His face is a little reddish, as if he had drank some wine..
“What are you going to do??”
“After graduation. There are many choices..”
“ah… … . I wasn't just going back home.?”
“really. He was a noble from your outskirts..”
Now I know that wasn't a particularly sarcastic tone..
I just nodded and Charles explained..
“Youngdo, who has completed Badniker’s training, has three major options. First, enter Heros immediately. Of course, except for the top three, they will not be official heroes but will start at the apprentice level..”
An apprentice hero is a knight with the rank of squire..
Like a squire, you learn the job by assisting an official hero, and then you become an official hero only when you are recognized by the hero and later recognized by the organization..
“That's okay.”
Evan nodded..
Entering Heros was Evan's goal even before participating in the retreat..
This is because I thought that in order to achieve my dream, I definitely needed the status of a hero..
“What are the other two??”
“One is just returning home..”
“aha.”
Surprisingly, I thought there would be a lot of people who would choose that one..
Is it because I finished the hard training?.
Evan, who had made up his mind, also saw the scene of his hometown and his father's face..
“The last step is to receive additional training at the Imperial Academy..”
“…Why??”
Evan asked in an uncertain tone..
I'm not disparaging the academy, but it's a bit awkward to go through a retreat and then take classes at an educational institution again..
As Evan understands, the Imperial Academy's curriculum lasts at least three years..
Some people who are called geniuses complete the entire course within 1 to 2 years, but that is only a small percentage..
“It doesn't take years. They said the special course would take 3 months. And there are benefits that can only be obtained from the academy..”
“For example?”
“Badniker's retreat may be the best for practical purposes, but what about the theoretical part? Although Badniker's dialogue was great, the total amount of classes was too small..”
“hmm.”
Evan agrees with that statement..
From the beginning, most of the classes at the retreat were practice-based..
“On the other hand, those in the academy are experts in theoretical areas. There are connections that can only be built there..”
“Looks like Charles is thinking of going to the academy..”
“that's right.”
Charles nodded..
“And honestly, I wish Evan went to the academy too..”
“me?”
“Evan lacks the manners of a nobleman..”
“…….”
“I'm just kidding, I just want to clear my father's name.?”
“yes.”
“Institutions are the center of an empire. It is also the place where rumors spread the fastest. If he performs well at the academy, Evan's name will be known throughout the empire within a few months.?”
It's tempting to say it like that..
Because of this retreat, I ended my wandering to some extent and gained confidence..
Now, I am confident that I will never lose to my peers. Except for a very few.
“Thank you for your consideration. I'll think about it seriously.”
“Please. Anyway, where on earth did this kid go?-.”
“It really was there!”
A loud shout was heard from some distance away. Charles frowned and looked in the direction from which the sound was heard..
As expected, Mir was seen surrounded by Yeongdo..
“So even if what you saw was a hallucination.”
“that's right. I guess I saw it wrong because of the barrier formed in the forest..”
“I was also surprised when my sister suddenly came out..”
Among them was Pam, who looked around and shrugged his shoulders..
“Look around. All of the living spirits participated in the banquet, but Luan is nowhere to be seen..”
“Well, that's true though…….”
“or not… I must have seen a real ghost.”
Pam spoke in an eerie voice, which pricked Mir..
“Well, the real ghosts at this retreat were Charon and Hector..”
Charis hugged her shoulders and trembled..
“Was it the fourth day? … . From then on, those two people seemed to have formed an alliance and were suddenly stealing all the balls..”
Skull muttered with a dejected look on his face..
“Me, I'm completely naked…….”
“That's because you stupidly hid the ball in your underwear... … . Karon, you shouldn’t have thought about hiding something from that guy, Gaho..”
“AC. Food tastes bad.”
Evan, who was listening to the conversation, also made a subtle expression..
Charles asked.
“What do you think Evan? I think what we saw was a hallucination?”
“It didn't seem like it.”
Luan Badniker suddenly encountered him in the forest and disappeared after giving him three blue balls..
In the process, we also had conversations..
Evan doesn't know much about magic, but he didn't feel like he saw something in vain..
At least that's how it was when we met and talked..
I found out later.
Youngdo, who saw Luan in the forest, realized that there was no one other than their group..
‘It's not some kind of ghost story…….’
Evan shook his head and said.
“Still, if you just look at the results, it’s obvious. Because I can’t explain it unless I saw something stupid..”
“That's right. At that time, I didn't even know if the ball I gave was real..”
Charon and Hector.
The two strongest men of this retreat, for some reason, formed an alliance at the end of the retreat..
The two of them searched through the butterfly forest and stole all the balls from the leaders.…….
‘I don't know Charon, but why is Hector?’
Charles felt doubtful from that appearance..
Taking all the credit from the leaders means that you want to keep your ranking the same.-.
1I don't know if it's Charon in the above position, but it might be an unexpected development for Hector, who was trying to bounce back with the last test..
However, the two walked through the forest in harmony without any discord..
As if there was some kind of kinship..
According to Youngdo's testimony, the two seemed to be quite friendly even though they bickered..
“Hehehe.”
At that time, a young man with brown hair appeared with a clearing of his throat..
Sword teacher Calzac..
Calzac shouted while standing on the platform prepared in the center of the banquet..
“-Attention all Yeongdo! From now on, we will announce the final results of the 61st Badniker Retreat.!”
The commotion subsided and the leaders' attention naturally focused..
Only the instructor knows how the special exam scores are calculated..
In other words, at this point, no one knows for sure his rank..
‘Although Charon and Hector stole all the balls,…….’
‘I don't know. There might have been a guy who wasn't taken away until the end..’
‘If I do well, I too will rank high.…….’
While the leaders were looking at the podium with anxious gaze, Calzac said:.
“As everyone knows, the top three receive a hero plaque from the hero organization [Heros] and a small prize money. Then, I will call out the first place! Caron Woodjack!”
Are you saying there was no surprise?.
Charles, who was secretly rooting for Hector, was a little disappointed, but as a nobleman he could not behave in an ugly manner, so he calmly congratulated him..
“And 2nd place! Hector Badniker!”
“ah.”
Charles was slightly surprised..
This is because before the test started, Hector’s rank was 3rd..
‘You tried to rebound in your own way..’
1It's a shame that we didn't finish first, but second place was also good..
Charles clapped with an expression of emotion..
Evan thought the applause was much louder than when he won first place..
“If this were the case, there might have been a change in 3rd place as well..”
“Iknow, right.”
Charles thought carefully about the talent that would be in the top three..
‘I think it's Zeros or Shinba..’
Charon's two associates.
Excluding those two, the only thing that matters is Lady Seren.?
Seren was sitting alone at the table and maintaining a noble demeanor..
Charles was slightly impressed..
Seren's refined manners were not damaged at all by six weeks of training..
An elegant appearance that even nobles would admire..
look at that.
There is elegance even in the simple act of drinking wine.…….
“3stomach! Luan Badniker!”
“yes!”
And the moment Luan appeared from behind the podium with a cheerful step..
“Whoop whoop!”
Seren spit out the wine she was drinking..
