Episode 1123
The day of joint training camp.
“Simon! come fast!”
Simon had been running since early morning, his hair flying. Although he was a little half-asleep, Meilin, smiling brightly like a spring flower, was running in front of him, pulling on Simon’s sleeve.
“I’m late because Simon overslept! lol!”
Camivarez was also flapping his bat wings and pushing Simon’s back. Simon smiled bitterly as he ran as if being dragged by the two girls.
‘Everyone is full of energy.’
Simon actually didn’t sleep well last night.
A fight with the representatives of Afnel led by Lete. Because I learned more about the background.
I had to lead this rune league with as few accidents as possible.
The organization would move in one way or another, and as long as he was on the scene, he could never let this incident become a fuse.
‘It’s a little unfortunate that the students’ lives could be in danger in this incident.’
Are you so scared of the undead that you can’t handle the pitch black? No matter what the Order does, the Rune League must be opened. The atmosphere of the continent, which was called the ‘Age of Confusion’ and was swayed by gangs and sagging, may change. Many people are looking forward to it.
Simon was dragged by Maylin and took out a notebook.
‘And this member list.’
There is speculation that death, including the drug of death, may be able to move people’s emotions.
So, as the leader of the national team, Simon studied each Top 10 in detail with Kazan.
We prepared it in detail by dividing it into areas of concern, areas of concern, and areas that require care.
Simon is about to open the first page.
“What is that?”
Maylin looked back and asked as if she was curious.
“Vocabulary? “Trying to memorize DMAT words?”
I guess that’s what I thought since I had a midterm exam recently. Simon quickly covered his notebook and laughed.
“That’s the way it is.”
“Ugh, anyway. “There are kids who always study for exams after the exams.”
Meilin said that and lowered her voice with a gloomy expression.
“… … “If it’s okay, I’ll teach you whenever I can.”
“Thank you, Meilin.”
Simon said his thanks and glanced at the contents of the notepad.
<Overall 6th place Maylin Villenne>
<Return to the ivory tower after graduation>
<Currently, her father, Daniela Villenne, is the temporary owner of the Ivory Tower, but the official successor is Serne Eindarc. I pretend not to, but in fact, I am quite worried and stressed about next year’s coronation ceremony.>
‘That’s true.’
Third year is when you become more concerned about your career path.
By working with Simone, her inferiority complex towards Cernet has largely been resolved, but since it has been confirmed that Cernet will ascend to the position of head of the Ivory Tower next year, Meilin will inevitably be worried about next year’s coronation ceremony.
“By the way, Simon~”
Meilin smiled brightly.
“Did you also meet Serne when you went to the Ghost Palace? “Why didn’t you tell me?”
Startle.
Simon’s shoulders trembled.
“Oh, no. Nothing much happened with Cerne… … .”
“okay? Sernet came to my dorm room and boasted about it? “She experienced a lot of unspeakable things in the haunted palace with Simon.”
The face was smiling, but looking at the sallow lips, it seemed like he was worried. She turned her head.
“Tell me properly later.”
“Yes.”
After running so frantically, I arrived at my destination.
Rochester Port.
This is the entrance through which many ships, including the Nether Whale, enter Locke Island. A large sailing ship to pick them up was already anchored in the harbor.
On the ship, the flag of the Dark Alliance and the flag with the Kizen mark were crossed, and the flags of the four kingdoms were fluttering beneath them.
“ah! “Hey, Simon, the student council president, is here!”
“Vice President! Senior clerk! “Everyone, welcome!”
“Cheer up!”
Second year juniors were at the port to meet us. There was also something that looked like a banner, which I don’t know when it was made.
<Destroy it, Afnel!>
<Death to the fanatics!>
There was some slightly dangerous content, but I turned my head away, thinking it was because of my youthful spirit. In fact, even now that it is confronting the organization, many people still perceive Afnel as a force that must be eliminated.
As Simon came out to the front of the sailboat, waving to the people, the gray-haired man sitting on the empty wooden barrel stood up.
“Good morning, Simon.”
Azel Bringer, who ranked 3rd overall, welcomed us warmly.
Simon also smiled.
“Good morning, Senior Azel. “I will learn a lot from this rune league.”
“haha! What do you have to learn from me? Anyway, I will do my best to help Simon.”
Meirin and Kamivarez, who were following behind, quickly put their hands together politely and bowed their heads.
“Hello, senior!”
“hello!”
“Well, don’t greet me so condescendingly!”
Azel waved his hands wildly and made a burdened expression.
“I’m a third year student just like you!”

While Maylin and Azel were talking, Simon secretly opened his notebook again.
<Overall 3rd Place Azel Bringer>
<Planned to work as an adventurer after graduation>
<He’s a lot better than before, but he’s naturally timid. Poor interpersonal relationships. Perception of victimization regarding status as a paid student. I feel like there is an invisible wall because my 3rd year juniors treat me like a senior.>
It seemed like the right thing to say. It bothers me to see Ezel talking to Meilin, who is one year younger than her, without even making proper eye contact while wriggling her fingers.
And the more worrying part was below.
<My thoughts seem to be complicated after the Ghost Palace mission. I am looking into the missing Balak and personally researching more about the organization.>
‘You said you met Balak at the Ghost Palace. ‘We’ll have to talk about this again later.’
At that time, Simon was quickly underlining the notebook he had just opened.
“Simon!”
“hi!”
I saw two people walking in front of me, pretending to know each other. Elisa from the Ghost Fleet, ranked 7th overall, and Claudia, ranked 10th overall, who this time became the representative of the Department of Deadly Poisoning.
Elisha came running, holding a bag of bread.
“You didn’t eat breakfast, right? Simon! What I brought you today… … !”
“I told you not to prepare for something like that.”
<7th place overall: Elisa Celine>
<Planned to work as the head of the Celine family after graduation>
<No sense of purpose. There are a lot of mistakes due to confusion. A personality that is extremely influenced by his father, the current head of the family. She is always worried about what will happen if she doesn’t inherit the Celine family and tries to do anything to get her father’s approval. Even if it is beyond my capabilities.>
While Simon was forcefully handed a baguette, Claudia, who looked tired, smiled.
“nervous. “I couldn’t sleep at all.”
<Claudia Menzies, 10th overall>
<After graduation, I want to be a researcher in toxicology, and my ultimate future hope is to be a professor in the Department of Deadly Reading Professor Kizen>
<This is my first time in the top 10 in my school life, and I feel a lot of pressure because I suddenly became the head of the Reading Department. The question of whether I can stay here is always lingering in my mind. Even now, as a third year student, I still feel guilty about the ‘Professor Byeolya Boycott’ incident, which is a past that sticks with me like a label.>
Claudia and Maylin talked.
“Meilin, what should I do? “I never imagined I would fight with the representatives of Afnel!”
“You seem surprisingly nervous. “I will teach you, so follow along.”
“I’ll support you too!”
Simon listened to their conversation, nodded, and then walked away.
“ah.”
I felt a gloomy energy in the distance, so I did something.
The male students were sitting far apart from each other.
You can see Chatelle Maier meditating with her eyes closed, Jules Vincere sitting down and holding the handle of the magic sword, and Elijah Crovis repeatedly collecting blood drops from his hand and extinguishing them.
“Hello everyone!”
Simon approached them with a lively smile. Everyone welcomed me by nodding their heads and saying hello. Elijah didn’t even say hello.
“How is everyone? Is there anyone having a problem?”
Everyone shook their heads. Elijah is still unresponsive.
I feel like my energy is sagging when I’m here with the quiet male students.
<Overall 4th place Chatel Maier>
<Career undecided.>
<No information. Unlike being born as a half-giant, he adapted to school life without difficulty.>
<8th place overall: Elijah Crovis>
<Career undecided.>
<No information.>
‘What is this?’
Even with Kazan’s information, there was little about these two.
At least one person here.
Simon looked at the male student carrying the magic sword on his back.
<9th place overall: Jules Vincere>
<The career path is the crow’s hope>
<During Bahil’s special lecture on curse science, everything he had built up until now completely changed. In conversation with the demon sword. It is assumed to be a transitional period. He expressed his opinion that he would not be of much help as of now and that he would like to be replaced by another candidate.>
‘Oh, this is a big deal.’
Jules Vincere, whom Simon had a lot of confidence in, doesn’t seem to be doing very well.
It was certain that his condition would get even better after this period, but I didn’t know if that would come before the end of this training camp period.
That’s when Simon approached me to say something.
“Players!”
A Kizen headquarters employee aboard the ship waved his hand and shouted.
“We will be setting sail soon! “Everyone, please come up!”
“yes!”
The female students, including Meilin, answered cheerfully and ran in. This trio of gloomy male students also appear to be trudging along with their luggage bags in hand.
The students waiting at the port gave out enthusiastic cheers and waved their hands. The motivations in between were also noticeable.
“Be sure to win! please!”
“If you lose to Afnel, there will be no soup!”
“You know that if you can’t beat Priest, you have to swim all the way to Rock Island, right?”
The Top 10 all smiled, waved, and got on the boat.
Simon was also the last to get on and walked away.
‘Oh, by the way.’
Wow.
Simon blinked as he flipped through his notebook.
‘The three prospective members said they would come separately and there would be a total of 10, but somehow it felt like one person was missing… … .’
Fuuuuuuuuuuuck!
At that moment, a huge storm blew up in the sky, and a huge black dragon appeared. The people gathered at the port were shocked and shook their clothes and hair.
In an instant, the huge dragon shrank in size, took on the form of Hector, and came down to the deck. Due to the impact, the entire large sailboat tilted left and right for a moment and swayed.
“W-what are you doing! you idiot!”
Meilin, who almost fell, let out a loud noise. She glanced at Hector, not even giving her a glance, and then turned her head away.
Simon laughed bitterly.
‘It looks like you trained until morning.’
My whole body was full of sweat.
Hector had been training frantically recently. Simon took out his notebook.
<Overall 5th place Hector Moore>
<Journal is the head of the Moore family>
However, there were many unusual details below.
‘What is all this?’
Fly! Fly! Fly!
There were more than five pages devoted to Hector alone, including information about Hector Moore that Kazan had researched, his inferiority complex toward Simon Pollentia, problems with the 6th Legion issue, and health problems.
<Person of Interest>
Kazan considered Hector to be the most important person. * * *
The ship carrying the delegates departed, receiving cheers from the people.
“Let’s gather together!”
On the deck, a headquarters employee dressed in a neat suit opened his mouth. Students, including Simon, lined up in front of him.
“Welcome to the Rune League preparation group camp curriculum! It will take about three hours to reach our first destination.”
Has it already begun?
I’m nervous!
While the students were each talking, the headquarters staff member who checked the time spoke.
“Then there are a few things we need to prepare from now on. “This is a very important step.”
“preparation?”
The employee stepped back and pointed to the door.
“Please line up and come in in order.”
Everyone talked with puzzled faces.
“Is this a weapon to use against a priest?”
“Maybe it’s a skills assessment!”
“I guess the exam has already started?”
Simon walked ahead, and the other students followed behind him.
As soon as I entered, men and women in various suits were waiting. Surprisingly, everyone here was Keygen headquarters employees. In some ways, they are like distant seniors.
“Please line up one by one in the order they came in!”
Simon stood in front of the male employee on the far right. Maylin, who was standing in front of the female employee next to her, whispered to Simon with a slightly nervous look.
“What? “What’s going on?”
“I do not know either.”
The headquarters staff member who came in last lined up the students one by one and then looked at his watch and said,
“let’s begin!”
whatever?
What are you asking me to do?
While everyone was just looking around with their heads in an awkward posture.
Less evil!
Good!
Suddenly, the headquarters staff took out a tape measure and began measuring the students’ height and arm length.
“??”
It was definitely a clothing size check. They were working passionately, even staining their pants on the dirty floor.
Simon turned his head.
“Meilin, this… … .”
“Don’t look this way!”
“I’m sorry.”
Simon immediately turned his head back. Headquarters staff um! And he raised his head.
“The student council president will look good in an unusual colored suit. “Let’s go with the orange suit jacket.”
“yes?”
Less evil. Less evil.
The woman next to her who was measuring Maylin’s size raised her glasses and said.
“Vice President Meirin, please wear a silk dress. “Come here.”
Students began to be dragged by each headquarters staff member by the hand.
and.
“wow.”
Once inside, an extremely luxurious fitting room was prepared. Students were able to choose and wear suits, dresses, and even jewelry as they pleased.
“What is all this… … .”
Meilin, wearing clothes that exposed her shoulders, walked out with a blush on her face. Her headquarters staff was very pleased.
“Would you like to try on some other clothes? “I think this lapel-gold dress would also suit you.”
“Well, is that so?”
Still, Meilin went to the fitting room with enthusiasm, probably because she was greedy. Then Elisha raised her voice.
“no! I don’t know what’s going on! “Don’t you have to tell me why I suddenly have to change into these clothes?”
“We will go to the opening banquet hall to announce the start of the Rune League.”
Headquarters staff said:
“This is a very important opening ceremony. People from all over the continent will see you.”
“You should have said that a long time ago! “Give me that necklace!”
Everyone was suddenly busy dressing up. Meilin chose a dress decorated with snowflakes and blue roses in a lapel-gold tone, with a design that revealed her shoulders and thighs, while Camivarez chose a pompous dress decorated with frills and ribbons.
“Meilin is so pretty!”
“So does Kami!”
While everyone is changing into new clothes.
“It’s all over. “Let’s do this.”
Finally, student council president Simon was walking out of the fitting room. The women’s heads turned all at once.
A stunning orange suit and black tie. Everyone’s eyes were focused on Simon, who perfectly pulled off the somewhat unusual suit.
‘Simon’s orange suit!’
‘It suits you in the meantime.’
Meilin and Camivarez were swallowing their saliva when Simon came up to them and smiled.
“Is everyone ready to go to the Rune League opening ceremony?”
Everyone nodded with excitement.
Hector, wearing a black tuxedo and showing off his forehead, was standing at a distance with a bored look on his face, and Chatel was twirling her shoulders uncomfortably, probably because her specially made suit was too small.
Simon glanced at them as well.
“Now, everyone, please pay attention here for a moment.”
Nephthys said it was a secret, but Simon was determined to say what he had to say in a way that should be made public.
“Before we go in, I have something to explain.”
“??”
After confirming that there were no headquarters staff nearby, Simon took a deep breath and opened his mouth.
“It’s about everyone’s safety.”
