Became the youngest disciple of God of War - Episode 154

I wondered what this meant, but Hector’s expression was more serious than I thought..
I paused for a moment and asked.
“No way, brother, I was really being taught by that guy.?”
“But... … . No way?”
“Because his face was so weird, I thought he was beating up my brother to vent his anger..”
Then Hector sighed..
“… Sir Barter can be a bit rough in sparring. However, since he takes his personal time to teach me, I can't complain that much. A knight's training is inherently harsh..”
I know that.
Badniker's training curriculum was also created by referring to the Knights' training schedule..
“Sir Barter is an outstanding knight and a great instructor. He is comparable to the great master in terms of teaching..”
“That's about it?”
“okay.”
Hector groped his face..
“The wound was a little loud, but it wasn't a scar or one that would last long. Look at my face. The swelling has already gone down, right?.”
It's definitely true.
“Then why did you do that then??”
“at that time?”
“When your face is swollen. You were so depressed.”
“that…….”
Hector, who paused slightly, sighed and said..
“… It was because of self-destruction. No matter how talented Sir Barter was, he came to the academy and sparred with him every single day, but he couldn't even graze his collar. I held on so persistently that even Lord Barter got a little carried away that day. Of course I received an apology.”
“…….”
They say hidden truths are usually boring, and this time it was just like that..
It's almost like I feel emptiness..
Hector continued, glaring at my face..
“In the first place, the most terrible sparring in my life was sparring with you. If I hadn't been treated by a high-ranking priest, I would have attended the retreat with a swollen face..”
“…hmm.”
I got slapped a lot back then..
It was difficult to refute, so I changed the subject..
“For now, I understand. Anyway, Butter is a guy you can trust.?”
“This is Lord Barter. He was the one who told me in the first place that there was an unusual atmosphere going around the Academy. I've seen him use divine protection, so he probably isn't the 'doll' you mentioned..”
“What on earth is that guy??”
“…….”
Hector hesitated for a moment and said.
“You've probably heard of the [Imperial Special Forces].?”
I asked back in a somewhat surprised voice..
“No way, that guy was a special task force.?”
“Yes.”
Only then did I understand.
Imperial Special Forces.
They are an agency directly under the imperial family and a special organization. They are literally elite agents who perform special or secret missions.-.
Due to the nature of the organization, everything from its size, location of its headquarters, and exact missions is a mystery..
For that reason, there are those who dismiss the Imperial Special Forces as simply an imaginary organization.…….
Badniker knows that the Imperial Special Task Force is a real organization..
I have no choice but to know.
This is because one of the many identities of the Iron Blood Prince is none other than the head of the Badknicker: an agent of the Imperial Special Forces..
‘In other words, the imperial family also had some sense of the academy's trend.?’
I felt a little relieved..
Still, it seems like this empire is not so incompetent that it has no answer..
In any case, if Barter is a member of the Imperial Special Forces, Goodspring's sudden joining is also a good idea..
That's why they were heading to the academy..
The person in charge on our side was Hector, so they probably had a close conversation..
I thought for a moment and then said.
“I won't meet you now.”
“why?”
“If the number of people increases further, the weight class becomes too large. There will be surveillance personnel sooner than I expected. So brother, first of all, don’t tell the barter about me..”
“The information you told me?”
“Feel free to share. You know the source and you make up an excuse..”
“hmm… i get it.”
“And brother, please stick with him for a while and move..”
Hector looked at me and asked.
“what are you going to do?”
“I'm going to try moving with the Yeongdo guys separately. ah. Charon will stick to her older brother..”
In the case of Hector and Charon, there is no need for me to look after them..
That's because they are already capable of doing their part..
“So Lord Barter is going to continue to move separately? There may be information that only they know..”
“We'll meet at some point, but I'll decide when. Where does he usually stay??”
“It's in the swordsmanship department of the training center..”
“good. Then two days… No. I'll be there in three days..”
Hector nodded..
“i get it.”

the next day.
I headed to [Your Mom's Trumpet Sound] early in the morning..
“Owner? I'd like to rent this store for about a week. As a bonus, I would like you to leave some space for me..”
“…What are you talking about this morning? Business aside, where are you spending a week?-.”
“100I'll give you gold.”
“…I will take care of that. haha. Feel free to use it. If you're bored, you can break all the furniture..”
I decided to buy the store from the owner and use it as a temporary hideout..
As I expected, the area in this academy with the least supervision and management was the shopping mall..
This store is even located in a quite corner, so it's perfect for secretly talking..
Then it was Seren who called..
Seren showed up early in the morning, sat across from me, listened to my story, and looked completely dumbfounded..
“Really?”
“okay.”
“…….”
Seren seemed speechless..
Narrow and straighten your eyebrows, twist your hair, or wiggle your fingers..
Then he sighed and said.
“…The situation is five times worse than I thought..”
“Is that so?.”
It's a subjective standard, so I don't know how serious this guy feels about the situation..
“…First, I need to find out more about the state of the academy..”
“how?”
“Coincidentally, there was a [Mana Basics] class this afternoon. It is the most popular course at the academy, with 102 cadets taking the class..”
“oh.”
It is definitely a popular subject..
There are 102 students, which means that almost 1 in 10 students at the academy are taking classes..
“We'll find out how many out of 100 people are dolls by the way you said it..”
“how? I would stay up all night to check on each and every one of them..”
“With my blessing, I'm trying to slightly lower the temperature inside the classroom. So much so that your breath comes out. Even though it's February, it's still a bit chilly, so it's not that weird..”
“ah.”
I was convinced..
There was a way like that.
“It's okay. Then, let’s meet again here in the evening after class. You bring Mir, Charles, and Pam..”
“okay.”
I also left the store and headed to the bus stop. There are no classes, but there are separate places to stop by..
Actually, I have two helpers..
They are much stronger, more reliable, and more loyal than Yeongdo, who has not yet enlightened..
Kayan and Arjan.
I plan to share the situation with those guys as well..
Not only will the power increase, but neither of you will move so clumsily that your tail will get stepped on..
It will be of great help in surveillance and information gathering..
In addition, since the supervision of users will be more lax than that of actual students, it may be possible to send them out of the academy depending on the situation..
‘I said I'd stay in the blue house.’
While sitting in my seat, I was picturing the academy map in my head, when suddenly someone sat across from me..
“hi.”
Clumsy voice and awkward expression.
It's Glenn Scarlett..
I waved my hand, feeling déjà vu..
“good morning.”
“Yes. Do you ever go to class??”
“no.”
“I see…….”
Glenn closed his mouth and looked at me..
It looks like he has something to say, but he seems to be having a hard time opening his mouth..
Then a group of cadets boarded again..
I naturally turned my gaze to them, and suddenly I checked whether they were dolls or not..
“…….”
I laughed out loud.
Of the twenty people on board, three were dolls..
“Professor Ron, have you seen the assignment? Because it's really evil. So you lose your hair…….”
“Wow, Professor Ron! hello!”
“……!?”
“It's nonsense.”
“You……!”
A female cadet is seen bursting into laughter..
girl with brown hair being teased in the middle.
It looked like he was losing his temper, but in fact he was gently hitting his friend on the shoulder with a playful expression..
It's a human reaction, a natural facial expression..
But that brown haired girl is a doll.
Not only his friends around him, but even he himself does not know that he is a doll, but that is the truth..
“under…….”
I somehow feel like my dignity as a human being has been trampled on..
Is this too grand a thought for someone like me?.
“Hey Luan.”
Then Glenn called me again..
When I looked away slightly, this guy said to me.
“Well, if you don't have anything else to do and you haven't had breakfast, why don't you go to the mall with me??”
“store?”
“huh… … . I know a good restaurant…….”
After saying that, Glenn lowered his head as if hiding under a large hat..
I thought for a moment, but then calmly nodded..
“good.”
Arjan and Kayan definitely don't have to meet now..
First of all, I was more curious about Glenn’s purpose..
“Me, really? thank you!”
Glenn raised his head and said with a bright smile on his face:.
After a while the train arrived at the shopping center..
Glenn got off the train looking a bit excited, looked at me and asked.
“Do you have a favorite food??”
“I eat anything as long as it tastes good.”
“okay? I hope it suits your taste…….”
It seems like there is a house that Glenn often goes to..
I quietly followed Glenn, who was ahead of me..
Surprisingly, I stop by the mall often.?
This guy walked around the streets as if he was used to it, but for some reason, his steps seemed to be heading towards a more gloomy place..
therefore… Near the back alley where [Your Mom's Trumpet Sound] is..
I'm sure the store this guy goes to isn't the hideout I rented.?
Feeling a bit anxious, I followed along, but fortunately, Glenn's footsteps passed by my hideout and headed deeper..
“It's here.”
“…hmm.”
And when we arrived at the store, the signboard said [Tomatoes that are so delicious to die for]..
‘Are the names of all the back alley stores Southern?.’
Puzzled, I followed Glenn into the store..
“Welcome.”
I heard a soft voice.
The inside of the store was quiet, and there was a man who looked a little rough..
Is it the owner??
Judging from the way he was dressed, it seemed like he was, but he didn't look like he was over 30. It means he is too young to be the owner..
Moreover, looking at his muscles, he appears to be quite a talented person..
“Do you like alcohol??”
“I've been drinking it often lately.”
“here… … ! Please give me two glasses of tomato beer, tomato stew, and tomato salad.!”
“…….”
The store lives up to its name..
Anyway, tomato beer came out before the food..
The color was slightly red, but when I took a sip, the flavor was quite good..
“delicious?”
“Actually, I don't like the smell of tomatoes, but this is delicious..”
“thank god…….”
Glenn grinned and drank all his tomato beer in one go. Surprisingly, he seems to be a drunkard..
Then the owner reappeared and put down a new beer glass along with the food..
“You can't have more than five drinks today..”
Judging from the way he speaks, he seems to be a regular..
Glenn nodded roughly and then raised his beer glass again..
“You drink well.”
“huh… … . I like alcohol. It makes me forget everything…….”
And the conversation stopped for a moment..
Glenn was a really good drinker..
By the time I was halfway through my first beer, there were already four empty glasses in front of him..
When his face turned a little red, this guy said.
“…I hate the imperial family.”
The more an ordinary person drinks, the more their eyes become droopy and their pronunciation becomes inaccurate, but this guy did the opposite..
His usual crawling voice has become clearer, and aside from his complexion being a little red, his facial expression seems much more alert than usual..
“But I know what I hate as much as the imperial family?”
It wasn't a question I wanted an answer to.
Glenn smiled and asked himself.
“Goodspring and Badknicker's bloodline.”
“…….”
“The most loyal bastards of the royal family..”
At that moment, a large number of people were felt inside the bar..
About ten academy cadets streamed in from the front and back doors and surrounded our table..
I glanced around and saw some faces I knew and some I didn't know..
“You, it’s been a while..”
One of the familiar faces was Talis..
There's a large bandage on the bridge of the nose, and it looks like the wound inflicted on Evan hasn't fully recovered..
“Luan Badniker.”
glen said.
“Slowly, you're annoying.”
Do you think I approached you with my last name hidden? Actually, I couldn't reveal it because I was busy, but I don't think making that excuse will work..
I glanced around.
Talis and his friends, academy cadets who appear to be upperclassmen..
Are they part of a faculty that requires a lot of body work? You can see his well-trained body even through his clothes..
“hmm.”
It's an unexpected situation, but it's not surprising and I'm not particularly impressed..
I don't know if it was Glenn's true colors, or if he was drunk, but his current appearance wasn't that shocking..
but. I found out the dean's identity just last night. For it to be even more shocking than that, Glenn's true identity would have to be that of a demon lord..
Of course, that didn't happen, so I laughed..
“Looks like you're still smiling.”
Perhaps because my attitude bothered him, Talis came up to me with a grin on his face..
“I guess you still haven't figured out the situation, but now you-.”
Talis' voice cut off with the sound of "Kwasik.".
Because I put this guy's face on the table..
“……!”
While there was a bit of commotion around me, I thought it was okay..
‘If you do it well…….’
Today, we will know for sure who Glenn Scarlett is..
