A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 493
The Sea (1)
The day of the long-awaited ceremony has dawned. Perhaps because of the large-scale event taking place today, the morning has been hectic.
Academy students aren’t that busy because they can enjoy the view from a nice place, but the professors are busy.
I have to check the personnel regularly and talk to the people dispatched from the palace.
“Shivar.”
“yes.”
“Please don’t cause any trouble today. Do you understand?”
“yes.”
“Did you understand that?”
“yes.”
I have to give you a big favor after going to the palace and committing a huge incident(?). There is probably no one as busy as a professor.
I have to manage the students, consider their movement, and keep an eye on the palace.
Even though we prepared so much, we still couldn’t stop the incident from happening. It’s so pitiful.
‘It’s not just a statement of facts, but it’s going to be torn apart, both physically and mentally.’
While Lee Yeon-hwa is at least prepared, other professors are not. The moment the incident breaks out, the political pressure will be intense.
Of course, Lee Yeon-hwa is not without a conscience, so she would have said something. Besides, she will resign from her professorship after this episode ends.
Since the Huan Empire and the East are in shambles, it is impossible to continue the professorship even if you want to. This is natural.
‘What I’m most worried about is the Matra Empire······’
As the ceremony approaches, it is not the Hwan Empire or the Federation that is becoming increasingly anxious. It is the Matra Empire.
A country that can respond military to military like a federation, but also has unparalleled political pressure.
I couldn’t help but be very worried because there was a being named Karas who could bring that country to me.
Suddenly, while the ceremony was in progress, the Federation committed a terrorist attack, and the military of the Hwan Empire stepped in to stop the terror attack.
When the army of the Hwan Empire comes out, the forces that were usually holding their breath suddenly come out, and if there is the Matra Empire on top of that······
‘Wow. This is really dizzying.’
This is why it seems like a bunch of garbage collected together. What’s even more ridiculous is that each person has a firm goal.
How on earth will this episode go? Will it be a total mess, or will it unexpectedly flow normally?
It was a total mess, with nothing to make sense of, so my head started hurting more and more.
This is something that is difficult to solve even by force; it is not a problem of force but a problem of numbers.
If I had two bodies, it would be better. But since I only have one, if there’s a hole in one, it can’t be filled.
I think it would be better to give up what I need to give up, but make sure to achieve the goal I want. That’s the best option.
‘This is just the best option, you have to consider the worst and the lesser of two evils.’
The worst, of course, is when the tower she worked so hard to build collapses and Dan Ye-rin’s life hangs in the balance.
The worst is when the Academy students suffer great harm. If these things explode all at once, I’ll want to cry.
I was less worried because I had Lize, but I couldn’t help but feel anxious. I wondered how things would turn out.
“······Bar.”
“··· ···”
“Shivar?”
“?”
As I was running the simulation in my head, a familiar voice rang in my ear.
When I turned my head, bright golden eyes were looking straight at me. Beneath them, a warm heart was settled.
This time, Elida will be watching the ceremony with me. She looked at me and tilted her head as she asked.
“I feel like I’ve been spacing out a lot lately. Do you have anything to think about?”
“hungry.”
“You just ate. Are you lying?”
No. How did you know? Most people just ignore it when I say that.
As I was starting to panic, Grace, who had overheard our conversation, quietly intervened.
“Would you like something sweet? There’s still some time left until the ceremony anyway.”
“there is?”
“I have candy. But it’s cinnamon flavored.”
“I want to eat.”
I’ve been working my brain a lot lately, so I need something sweet. Candy, whether it’s cinnamon or whatever, is candy after all.
I felt my mental strength return a little as the taste of cinnamon filled my mouth.
I suppressed my anxious feelings and waited silently until the ceremony.
“Excuse me, do you have any candy left?”
“Yes? Oh… How many would you like to give me?”
“If you give it to me, I will gratefully accept it. It’s been a while since I’ve had a ceremony, so my heart is pounding.”
It’s not just me who’s nervous, Dan Ye-rin is probably the same. She’s probably one of the most nervous people here.
As a student, Lee Yeon-ju is more of an observer rather than directly participating. The same goes for Lee Hyeon-hwa.
‘What worries me the most is······’
There, the crown prince of the Matra Empire, Karas, is talking to someone else.
It seemed like he was talking to someone from the same empire, but he was too far away and the surroundings were noisy to hear the conversation.
The next person to see is Lize. Lize was currently talking to Erica with a gentle expression.
Erica’s face was slightly frozen, not knowing what she had heard. Or maybe she had been scolded by Lize.
‘Honestly, those two can stop the demons on their own.’
There’s no need to explain to Lize, Erica is also an excellent priest. What’s more, she received training from Lize and her personal strength has also become stronger.
They are the ultimate counter to the demons, so you can trust them. It’s because of the other forces that are the problem.
So, with complicated feelings in my heart, I headed to the place where the ceremony was to take place.
Perhaps because today was an event for the most distinguished guest, Crown Prince Danjucheon, there were a lot of people gathered around.
‘If anyone saw this, they would think there was a war going on.’
The fact that more than half of those people were military indirectly revealed the political situation of Changcheon and the Huan Empire.
It seemed as if they were going out to open war rather than for a ceremonial event. It meant that the security of the Huan Empire had been destroyed.
The Huan Empire was originally known for its inviolable governmental duties and unstable public security. The result of neglecting it is what we see now.
If Dan Ye-rin becomes the emperor, wouldn’t she be inviolable and make an effort to control public order?
At first glance, the martial artists act as if they are civilized, but the more you look into it, the more it seems that they like violence more than barbarians.
‘We are not plundering to live like the Tatars, it is just because of ideological differences.’
How could even Kara be dumbfounded? Anyway, let’s move on and look around the place where the ceremony was to take place.
A road surrounded by numerous buildings. The problem is that most of the buildings are tall.
That means it’s a perfect area for sniping. They probably have troops stationed there.
No matter how much Danjucheon has a desire to show off, he is a person who knows how to value his life. He must have prepared thoroughly.
“Let go of this! Why are you taking me away!”
“I just heard this guy mumbling something in a dirty language!”
“Pull him out!”
“It’s so unfair! So the poor people can’t even look at it?!”
There was an incident where we prepared too thoroughly and a problem occurred: the inspection.
Even though a large crowd was mingling, thorough inspections were conducted to prevent any untoward incidents.
The flaw is that most of those people are on the side of the United Nations, or to be precise, the Allied Forces.
‘It looks like America is oppressing the people of the Middle East.’
Of course, the Academy side was not touched. In fact, it was close to an abuse of power, so the palace was reluctant to do so.
You might say that the term “abuse of authority” is not appropriate for an educational institution, but that’s because the problem lies in other countries.
Moreover, it would be rough since the black castle is standing tall. It’s not that you avoid it because it’s dirty, it’s that you avoid it because you’re scared.
-Wow!
As I waited endlessly, I heard a loud cheer coming from up front.
It seems that Danjucheon himself has begun to march. At the same time, the soldiers’ vigilance has become even stronger.
If a terrorist attack were to occur, it would be natural for all the soldiers’ balls to be blown away.
The soldiers standing guard are not just simple soldiers, but mostly generals. People who are helpless.
Will they be able to stop the terrorism? That’s something to look forward to.
‘Anyway, there won’t be a terrorist attack where I am.’
In other words······
-Catch that guy!
-He’s holding a bomb! Stop him!
It means that an accident could happen in front of me.
It was hard to hear because of the shouting, but it seemed like someone had tried and failed to throw a bomb.
Originally, the first priority for security was not to block with the bodyguard’s body, but to stop him. It’s a passing grade.
‘The first terrorist attack was a failure.’
Up to this point, it was as expected. It was the same in Soul World.
Now the second terrorist attack will pass me by and continue. Until then, all I have to do is wait quietly.
“”””Waaa …
As the cheers grew louder than before, Danjucheon slowly came into view.
A carriage befitting the grandeur of the palace. It is also a carriage decorated with various golden ornaments.
Anyone who saw it would be amazed at its dazzling appearance, and Danjucheon also wore a golden crown on his head.
Considering that usually only ’emperors’ or ‘kings’ can wear crowns, he essentially declared himself emperor.
But that crown will soon be shattered.
‘It’s not like it’s three days in the world.’
Just when I was chuckling to myself at that thought, Danjucheon looked straight at me.
Was it because he was in a higher position? He laughed at me as if he was looking down on me.
Next to him was another general, not General Yiryong. I waved to him.
‘Yes. Enjoy it to your heart’s content. That too······’
It won’t be long, I muttered to myself.
-Swoosh
A very fine line appeared on Danjucheon’s neck.
-Thud! Thud! Thud!
The face and neck were completely separated and fell under the carriage.
“······uh?”
What the heck. Am I dreaming? Why is the prince’s neck falling off?
A situation where no signs or omens occurred. An assassination that would be impossible unless there was a hunter present.
What on earth is going on? Didn’t the hunter say that Grandpa Lord stabbed him in the heart?
When an unbelievable situation unfolds and you are left blinking.
“Whoa, whaaah!!!”
“The, the Crown Prince’s mother, mother, neck······!!”
“The prince has been murdered!!!”
The loud cheers turned into screams and appalling applause.
“There’s a sword in that guy’s hand!”
“Hurry up and catch him!!!”
All the soldiers’ eyes were focused on me. At the same time, a terrible hostility was directed at me.
It was shocking that Danjucheon’s head was cut off, but why is all that hostility pouring out on me? Why on earth?
In a situation where the world seemed to be moving slowly, I realized too late. The hand that I thought had nothing.
‘What, what······’
I was holding a bloody dagger in my hand.
‘······when?’
Things started to go more smoothly than I expected.
