Episode 195
I found the source of the delicious smell.
I wondered why the smell was so obvious, but it was a restaurant with lots of street tables.
The night air was cool, and since it was a hilly place, the scenery wasn’t bad.
After sitting down in a suitable place, I ordered a lot of food.
A stew filled with grilled, steamed, fried and meat ingredients. Plus apple juice.
It was my first free meal in a long time, so I stuffed as much food into my stomach as possible.
Did they decide that the sudden influx of people in the shopping mall was a golden opportunity?
There were a lot of new menu items added that I hadn’t seen before, and the overall quality of the food seemed to have improved.
Of course, the price seems to be much higher than that, but that’s none of my business.
“Well, you’re eating well.”
“I know… … .”
Since ancient times, the saying ‘you’re so lucky to eat’ has been a compliment, so I nodded and filled my stomach.
I haven’t eaten it all yet… … .
After eating, I felt a little more relaxed.
Only then did I take a closer look at my two unexpected companions.
As I said before, both of them were around my age and appeared to be somewhat disciplined.
‘no. wait for a sec.’
It wasn’t just about having a baby, but at this level, he was quite strong.
My condition now.
So, I thought it would be quite difficult to fight these two guys with only half of my condition restored.
While eating, we briefly introduced ourselves. The guy with a rather fierce look was named Jial, and the straight-faced girl was named Haro.
‘Are you both prosecutors?’
Looking at the shape of the muscles, it seems that the sword on his waist is not for decoration. It means that you have trained your sword skills professionally… … .
By the way, Gial and Harorani.
While I think it’s a ridiculous name, I also think that it could be a pseudonym like mine.
“So what brings you two to the academy?”
“ah… Well, it’s almost like I was brought in by my teacher.”
Master?
When I tilted my head while drinking apple juice, Haro chimed in with a confident voice.
“That’s not it! “We came to see the faces of people named Yeongdo!”
“Hey, halo.”
“why? “It’s true.”
“… That said, you can say it in a more purified way.”
“Ugh, nagging… … . “Are you my brother?”
I looked at the two bickering and asked again.
“What business do you have for Yeongdo?”
“Well, I came to check if it’s really as strong as rumored!”
So are you here to fight?
I felt a little embarrassed.
The dean was right when he said that all kinds of people would get screwed.
I continued, poking the boiled chicken with a fork.
“Then what are you two wandering around? Performing martial arts… No. “Wandering around the empire doing things like knight training.”
“It’s similar, but… … .”
“What is similar?”
Haro shouted with a triumphant look on his face and took something out of his arms.
“braided!”
“oh… … .”
A tile made of metal, a familiar shape.
I said in a somewhat surprised voice.
“You two were heroes of Heros.”
“that’s right!”
A plaque symbolizing Heros’ status as an official hero.
I have one too. Of course, the level is not high because the cards were obtained through the training route.
He received a D grade, which is the lowest grade and means he is an apprentice hero.
If you look closely, what Haro brought out is different from mine.
I wonder if the material of the metal is wrong.
The difference in material can tell the owner’s level, and a bronze tile would have definitely been a C level.
C grade.
At first glance, it appears to be a low grade, but it is not at all.
At the hero organization Heros, C-level hero plaques are awarded only to those who are judged to be performing their duties.
In other words, these two guys, who appear to be somewhat fierce, not only have practical experience with the cult, but also have enough experience to cross the firing line several times.
“So, does this mean you are here to suppress the future juniors?”
“Rather than that, it’s more about organizing the hierarchy. “Why, doesn’t Badniker have the right to appoint heroes as he pleases?”
Haro said with a dissatisfied face.
“I’ve thought it was overpowering since a long time ago. There should be a certain level of special treatment for being a noble, and if you are truly confident in your abilities, come to Heros and take the official entrance exam.”
“aha.”
“Besides, Badknicker hasn’t been that good since long ago. “I can’t even imagine what criteria that gloomy family would use to appoint a hero.”

“Hey, halo. Saying that again-.”
“why. “Did I say something wrong?”
Jial glanced at me.
I seemed to think that I might be a nobleman.
First of all, I also come from a prestigious family, so I might have noticed things like etiquette when eating.
It’s no use worrying. I wasn’t particularly offended by Haro’s words.
On the contrary, I agreed to some extent and nodded.
“That’s right. Badniker. “There are a lot of bad rumors going around, and the family itself is so closed that I don’t know what they’re thinking.”
“also! “I thought I could communicate well with you.”
Haro burst out laughing and continued.
“Anyway, I heard that there were three people who received hero plaques at this retreat: Hector Badniker, Charon Woodjack, and lastly Luan Badniker.”
I never thought you would know that.
Is Heros’ intelligence good?
Or did Badniker spread it on purpose?
“Actually, this also stinks. At a retreat held at Badniker, two Badnikers each received a hero plaque… … . “There must have been some behind-the-scenes work.”
“hmm. That tidy… … .”
“That’s right! How proud I am of Charon, who achieved excellent results despite all this… … .”
Why is the way you speak strange?
I asked, tilting my head.
“Do you know Charon Woodjack?”
Then Jial looked at me and smiled bitterly.
“We’re not friends, we just played together a few times when we visited the swamp a long time ago.”
Isn’t that enough to be a friend?
I thought as I chewed the meat.
Anyway, Charon was seriously injured right now, and I wasn’t sure if I should tell these two friends who were close friends.
“Anyway, that guy named Luan definitely needs to be given a true education!”
“hmm.”
I said, ordering extra meat.
“Is that necessary? “From what I understand, Luan Badniker is a pretty nice guy.”
“Nice Guy is a piece of shit. He’s a guy who only heard bad rumors about him until a year ago. A guy like that suddenly gained the status of a hero and played a decisive role in stopping the descent of the Demon King… … . There has to be a degree of contrived things.”
Haro gritted his teeth and muttered.
“The hero… It shouldn’t be made artificially like that… … .”
“… … ?”
“… Anyway, it’s been a while since we’ve been to the academy, and we haven’t seen a single Youngdo yet. “Is there no way we can meet?”
He strangely looks at the food and asks that question.
I was told to pay for the meal.
Since I am not a person without conscience, I answered with my arms crossed.
“It doesn’t have to be Luan, right?”
“That guy is the most annoying… … . If it doesn’t work out, there’s nothing we can do. “He’s a mean guy to begin with, so I don’t think he’ll fight openly.”
“Hmm. Then wouldn’t Hector be appropriate?”
I heard that Hector’s condition is relatively normal in Yeongdo.
He said he wasn’t seriously injured and didn’t suffer any major psychological shock.
Of course, it seemed like he was busy being called here and there.
“Is this the genius Hector Badniker…? … . That would be fine. But how should I call it?”
“You know me. It means it’s worth asking a favor. “He probably won’t turn down a fight.”
“oh… … .”
Then Haro looked at me and said.
“By any chance is Naru a noble?”
“yes?”
“Well, as expected… … . “I thought it looked classy.”
What on earth is that thing that looks luxurious?
After thinking for a moment, I suddenly looked at Jial, who was still smiling embarrassedly.
The deeper you look, the more you feel it. There was quite a big difference in level between these two guys.
That guy, Zial, is hiding his power.
Still, what should I say? The initiative seemed to lie with Haro.
“ha… … . Anyway, I’m glad. Because I didn’t go this far in vain. “This will give me the confidence to see Master.”
“Who is that teacher you were talking about earlier?”
“Good question! As for who our teacher is… … .”
Haro said in a confident voice.
“It’s Maksim, the Blade of Heaven!”
His voice was much more confident than when he showed me his hero badge, but my surprise was bound to be even greater than before.
“If it’s the Maxim of the Breaking Blade… … . “You’re Heros’ S-class hero.”
Heros’ most important force, numbering less than twenty.
Moreover, the broken sword is quite famous among them.
Pacheongeom Maxim.
He is also called War Hero Maxim, and the reason why he is called that is simple.
This is because he single-handedly ended the war that took place in the vast land of the eastern part of the empire, where conflicts between races and tribes were intense.
Not once, but several times.
It is said that Maxim showed inaction that could split the sky each time, and because of that, he was given the nickname “Bacheon Sword.”
“A big man like that came all the way to the academy?”
It smells a bit stinky.
Well, if the devil has descended, it would not be strange for Heros to send this much manpower… … .
It’s not like he’s actually fighting the Demon Lord, so he sent such a big man to check the aftermath at best?
“I heard that Maksim the Blade of Heaven is quite busy among heroes… … .”
It would be okay if only the disciples were sent, but it would be a waste of manpower for Heros to come in person.
Haro laughed and answered.
“I did not come as the hero of Heros. He actually announced a call for middle names at the imperial court.”
Pop.
For the first time, my movements as I was busy eating my food stopped.
“Hello, that’s-.”
“Oh sorry. mistake.”
I lost my appetite.
The reason wasn’t just because I emptied more than 15 dishes.
“… Middle name called out? really?”
“Uh, yes. “Do you know about middle names?”
I know.
There is no way you wouldn’t know that he has the last name Badnicker. It’s okay if you don’t know.
I said, jumping up from my seat.
“… I suddenly remembered something important. I’ll just go now. “The food was good.”
“uh? Now, wait! “Then the contact with Hector Badniker is-.”
“I’ll send it here tomorrow, at this time.”
I left immediately without saying those words. I saw the two guys reflexively trying to grab me, but then being caught by the clerk.
“customer? “You haven’t done the math yet.”
“Oh, no. I’m not trying to run away… … .”
“Of course I know, but let’s do the calculation first.”
“Okay… omg. Well, what is it? Why is the price so… … ?”
“This is the price of the system… … .”
Middle name.
Who on earth are these guys?
First of all, they are a group that follows the orders of the imperial family, but it is ambiguous to call them subordinates of the imperial family.
The rights they received were so powerful that they even had the right to disobey the emperor’s orders.
In fact, it is ambiguous to even call it a group. This is because there is no particular point of contact between their members.
They have little to no familiarity with each other and have nothing in common.
This is because they were selected from the beginning based on just one look.
skill.
All middle names were chosen based solely on strength… All of its members are candidates for being the strongest in the empire.
Just like the Maxim of the Blade of Heaven.
And of course, this middle name also includes one of the most powerful people in the empire.
The charisma of a great family.
The strongest demon hunter.
Black Fairy Executioner.
Iron Bloodsmith Delac C. Badnicker.
… You will be my father.
‘Plague.’
Tension blooms in a relaxed mindset.
Of all the citizens of the empire, if I had to pick just one person I should most avoid meeting right now, it would be Iron Blood Ball, without a doubt.
Of course, I could hide the instrument, but that trick might work on Sanghyeolgong… … .
If you have any doubts about me and activate the divine protection of Jinwi and shower me with questions, there is no way to avoid detection.
‘What should I do with this?’
We can’t continue to avoid it, but it’s not the time yet.
Will he be fainting until Sanghyeolgong leaves? no. In the first place, where is Sanghyeolgong now?
“Hey, kid. “If you don’t want to get hurt, put down everything you have and get away.”
“… … .”
Your mind is complicated, what kind of bastard are you?
As I glanced around, I saw a stick of rice cake. He looks like a delinquent at first glance, but how did this guy creep into the academy?
Is it because of Dean Alderson’s absence?
What was unexpected was that it wasn’t me who was talking to this guy.
The person blocking the road with a grin on his face was a boy wearing a robe… … .
Somehow, jet black hair and unusually dark skin peeking out from under the hood came into view.
“… … .”
“… … .”
The moment our eyes met, goosebumps spread down my spine and I almost cursed sincerely.
Ha, f*ck. dad.
Why are you here?
fantasy,
