I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 66
66fury
Perhaps Charon realized that this attack was the instructor's intention..
Otherwise, there is no reason to say something like that at such an urgent moment..
Anyway, despite being so blatantly provoked, my feelings were surprisingly calm..
Regardless of how strong that guy is, it felt pathetic to see him focus on competition even when people around him were dying..
And it's unseemly to get truly angry at a pathetic opponent's provocation..
In the end, you are acknowledging that you are on the same level..
When I looked up without responding, Charon gave me a murderous look and then left..
And then he started shooting arrows like crazy and went back to subduing the monsters..
‘Did you risk your life on your grades?.’
That guy's skills can be said to be unrivaled in the world of raw meat, even among the Youngdos..
Hector, Seren, Evan, etc. fighting from afar.…….
The feeling of standing out clearly even among already proven geniuses.
In my opinion, the talent itself is similar, but the reason for this difference is due to experience..
Charon has probably fought countless life-threatening battles since the accident was possible..
Since he's that kind of guy, the current situation doesn't really feel like a crisis..
This means that you can pursue efficient movements while maintaining your cool.…….
Somehow, I felt impatience in Charon's actions. It's like I'm being chased by someone..
I was surprised because it seemed like a contradictory attitude for someone with experience, but I took care of the other leaders instead of Charon..
I meant it when I said you were too young to die..
So time passes again…….
Cooung……!
The corpse of a giant centipede was scattered on the ground with a loud noise, and silence fell for a moment around it..
“…Is it over?.”
Evan's tired voice woke up the silence..
Suddenly, several people were seen collapsing as their tension eased..
I also saw some amazing guys who were wary of their surroundings until the end..
Although a major crisis has been overcome, there was silence rather than cheers in the hall..
Clap clap clap-.
The silence was suddenly broken by the sound of applause..
A few young people stood up in shock, but there was no need for that..
“Excellent!”
It was the instructor who showed up..
I wondered what kind of person would applaud in a situation like this, but when I saw the top, I felt strangely convinced..
Martial arts teacher Juan said with a bright smile on his face..
“That was a very good save. As expected, this rider is very good..”
“Instructor?”
“What the hell is this…….”
Juan said, looking at the cadet who still had a dumbfounded expression on his face..
“Congratulations on passing your first special exam, Youngdos!.”
“……!?”
Unexpectedly, there were a lot of people who didn't realize it, so a small commotion broke out..
“It's a test?”
“Seriously, this monster’s attack…….”
“yes. This was the situation we intended..”
“…….”
The expressions of the leaders hardened at the calm reply..
Some people's faces turned red and they looked angry..
“It was an intentional situation.!”
“How can something so absurd become a test??”
“Well, I almost died in this battle.!”
“-so?”
At that time, a cold voice, different from Juan's, appeared..
I'm a hunting teacher..
Not only that, but many people showed up together, and I shook my head when I saw their faces..
‘The entire Ministry has gathered for the first time..’
There are 8 people in total..
10Although not all of the Ming Dynasty appeared, the atmosphere was quite grand as they were walking with the knights of the main family wrapped around them like two wings..
The hunting teacher said with a sarcastic face..
“Did you say you almost died? That's a good thing. Because one of the intentions of the retreat is to put you in danger of death..”
“That, like that…….”
“still… this is too much…….”
“It's too much.”
The hunting teacher twisted the corner of his mouth..
It seemed like a kind of habit that occurs when you discover something that bothers you..
“Let me ask you something. Do you think you'll never be attacked in the middle of the night while living as a hero? Let me tell you, things were pretty friendly today. We woke you up in advance, and you had time to prepare yourself before the monsters attacked. If this was a real fight, there wouldn't have been that kind of leisure. This means that when you feel something strange and open your eyes, the knife may have already split your uvula..”
A particularly large man questioned these words. Judging by the fact that it had a tail, it wasn't human..
“Well, this isn’t a real fight, is it??”
“That's an excuse I want to kill half-heartedly..”
“That's enough, Mr. Tanko..”
The martial arts teacher brightened the mood again..
“We're not here to scold them, are we??”
“…….”
“Take a look. Surprisingly, all Yeongdo survived. It's not unprecedented, but it's a remarkable achievement..”
The martial arts teacher clapped again..
Several great criminals and knights were seen slapping their palms together as if in agreement with him..
“…….”
On the other hand, some instructors were seen standing with their backs until the end..
‘I don't think all instructors are friendly.?’
It feels like there are factions divided among them..
I put the faces of the instructors standing still into my brain one by one..
“As I said, this was also a test, and all Youngdos were given a grade commensurate with their performance. It's late today, so I'll tell you the results tomorrow..”
“…So is today's test over??”
Hector asked and the martial arts teacher nodded..
“That's right.”
Only then did sighs of relief and laughter break out here and there..
Some turned to go back to their lodgings..
Right now, your mind will be filled with thoughts of wanting to rest..
“Where are you going?.”
At that time, the cold, calm voice of the hunting instructor stopped his steps..
The young people who were walking unsteadily looked back with grim faces..
“If you make a mess, you have to clean up after yourself..”
“yes……?”
The hunting teacher laughed, pointing to the corpses of monsters scattered around the training ground..
“Clean everything up and sleep.”
“…….”
* * *
the next morning.
I woke up a little tired..
“hmm…….”
If I, who am used to sleeping on the side, were like this, the other Yeongdo guys would be on the verge of fainting..
“Turn it off…….”
Indeed, it sounded like a zombie waking up in the bed next to me..
Evan's usual bright mood had completely disappeared and he gave off a gloomy smoke..
It falls down the bed like some kind of hanging seaweed, and its movements are very gloomy..
“Are you okay??”
“That's right.”
I don't think it's okay?
But I didn't say anything more, just tapped Evan on the shoulder and passed by..
When I went out to the training ground, this place was also full of zombies..
but.
Is it natural that I woke up again after working almost all night, unable to sleep for even an hour?.
I yawned too, but that was because the sun hadn't risen yet..
The sun will be bright soon, and if you get some sunlight, your condition will soon return..
As a reaction, you will feel crazy sleepy starting around evening..
At that time, someone walked out of the instructor’s dormitory..
A hunting teacher with a unique cold face..
“…….”
I felt like the surroundings were in order just by appearing..
These arrogant young leaders seem to have realized who the instructors they need to be especially wary of during this retreat are..
The hunting teacher started by checking the number of people with his characteristic expressionless face, then nodded and said to himself..
“Please follow along today as well.”
And immediately starts running.
Perhaps this early morning rush may be a routine that lasts until the end of the retreat..
it's good for me.
There's nothing better than jumping to improve your basic physical strength..
The top rankings were similar today too..
The one running in front was Charon, followed by Seren and Hector, running at almost even speed..
Next is Evan and Mir, the next chief of the Nightwalkers, the daughter of Rubieta and the Chevalier's only son.…….
My speed was similar to yesterday, but my ranking was far behind, so I was in the middle of the pack..
Perhaps those who realize the value of points are showing their grit..
I'm not impatient.
Because grades aren't particularly important to me..
As I was thinking about this and that, the run was over..
“Heo-eok, heo-eok…….”
“…It's killing me, really.…….”
There were fewer young people left behind than yesterday, but most of them were lying exhausted in the vacant lot..
I too was drenched in sweat and took a moment to catch my breath..
Fortunately, this morning's schedule was quite leisurely..
Not only was there time to eat breakfast, but even a short break was given afterwards, but it seems that there was a perception that yesterday's unexpected test was a bit excessive..
Yes, it only lasted about 30 minutes, but the sleep-deprived guys took advantage of that time to doze off..
And then gather back at the training hall.
“…There's really no time to catch my breath..”
“1If only I could sleep for some time, I would have no wish..”
“Still, I'm glad that it's instructor Juan's class in the morning..”
As he said, the person standing on the podium was martial arts teacher Juan, and he spoke with his signature soft smile..
“Good morning, everyone. Are you very tired? You can all sit down..”
“OMG.”
“thank you……!”
The leaders, who were very tired, sat down in their seats..
“I have a short announcement before morning class. These are the results of the test I took last night. We witnessed and recorded every single detail of the battle. And each leader was graded through a strict and objective review..”
What happened not yesterday, but this morning.
Analyzing it means that the instructors haven't slept a wink since last night..
This means that he is in a more difficult state than the instructors who took a nap, but even so, all the instructors I saw today seemed fine..
“It would take too long to present them all, so I will only present the top five. It just so happens that they are the only ones who can get points. They earn 10 points, 8 points, 6 points, 4 points, and 2 points in order from the top..”
roar-.
The leaders were agitated by a point that was bigger than expected..
“Then, we will announce the 5th place. Evan Helvin.”
“ah……!”
Evan exclaimed..
Looking at his expression, he was half proud and half sad..
I nodded..
This may be considered a low ranking considering his future fame, but Evan is still growing..
“Next was Hector Badnicker in 4th place and Seren Goodspring in 3rd place..”
Hector's expression was stiff, and Seren had a calm face..
It seems like he thinks the ranking is appropriate for his current level..
Then, as if he suddenly remembered, he looked around and saw me..
He seemed curious about my ranking... … . There was one more gaze.
A gaze ten times more sticky and a hundred times more annoying than Seren's..
Charon Woodjack is looking at me with burning eyes..
“- ah. Come to think of it, I forgot to tell you. This raid was one of the [special tests] that will be held once a week from now on, and the first place in this special test will receive a special reward, separate from the points..”
1Special rewards available only to those above?
After making another remark that was bound to cause a stir, the martial arts teacher continued with a grin..
“An explanation of the special rewards will be provided after the rankings are announced. Then 2nd place.”
