Episode 102. Dormitory Assignment (2)
Red Sword Hercia.
She was once called one of the 72 heroes, and I thought she was noble because her talent was outstanding from a young age.
Even in the future, we didn’t really talk about the past, and I just thought we were similar in age.
Among the 72 heroes, she was friendly with mercenaries like us.
‘The standards for being friendly are different, though.’
It didn’t feel particularly friendly, but that’s what the mercenaries felt.
Because I felt that she was strangely more comfortable talking to us, people of low birth, than when talking to other fallen nobles.
‘That’s where we yearned for our way of survival.’
Her sword burned everything.
That’s why she was nicknamed the Red Sword, but before that, she was curiously eager to learn our ways.
Especially from me.
I don’t know why. It’s just that when he came to me, unlike other people, he would often bring me an extra glass of beer or bring me some snacks.
At first I just thought she was pitiful, but as time went on I fell in love with her.
‘And then he died……’
In a battle we couldn’t handle, she died protecting us.
Although she was not knighted, she was a knight at that moment.
‘We should have died……’
Her face, with her beautiful, intense red hair fluttering, running through the battlefield and creating beautiful flames, flashed before my eyes.
I ignored the red badge guys and stared at her face.
The minor wounds on her face were gone, and her smooth skin was exposed, making her feel even more foreign, but it was Hercia.
-Chaeng!
And I had to draw my sword and block it as it came close to my neck.
“Hmm?”
“……”
-Kagagagagagak!
The sword never went out again.
I spoke to Hercia, blocking the sword I held with both hands with the one I held with one hand.
“What is this?”
Hercia muttered while holding her sword.
“I feel your gaze.”
“…….”
I said so?
‘calm down.’
I looked clearly at Hercia’s face while blocking the sword.
“Hey, you lowly surveillance bitch! What do you know about the person wearing the blue badge!”
“Hey you bitch! Why don’t you bow your head quickly! Do you even know who this person is!”
“Do you think you can achieve anything just because you entered the academy? Who dares a lowly bitch swing a sword at!”
“Who dares to come out of a country girl’s belly and bow your head to her?!”
I stayed still, but the guys next to me started making more noise.
Their mouths wouldn’t stop, as if they were trying to cover up what happened earlier this time.
“I’m also a child born from a country girl’s stomach. Are you telling me that?”
“……”
At those words, everyone burst into laughter.
The only empire in the world that gives authority to illegitimate children is the Reizen Empire, but these guys are all Reizen Empire guys, so I just looked at them with a sense of loss again.
“I’ll take a look, so you can go.”
“Yes, yes!”
“Excuse me!”
As the guys ran away in a hurry, I put away my sword.
“Who are you…?”
Hercia hid her trembling hands behind her back.
He instinctively felt that he was no match for them.
“Locke. I have nothing more to tell you. If we have a chance, let’s meet later.”
My brief meeting with Hercia ended with a quick wave of my hand.

They say classes will start in earnest tomorrow.
The most we had to do today was assigning dormitories.
“It’s been a long time, Your Majesty.”
“It’s been a while, Vera. How have you been?”
“I bet something happened to you, Master. I heard there was a big incident at the entrance ceremony yesterday.”
“Nothing happened. I’m not even hurt.”
Although my insides were not fully healed yet, I pretended as if nothing had happened on the outside.
“By the way, where is Vera?”
“I stay at a hotel outside the academy. That means my training starts in the afternoon after all of the master’s classes have finished.”
“Hmm.”

Berado is having a hard time.
“Anyway, this is my first time at Blue. It’s a place that only very special people visit, so I haven’t had a chance to come in often.”
“Is that all?”
“Yes. At least there’s a rumor going around that there are always rooms available in the Blue Dormitory.”
The size of the dormitory building was the same as the others.
Of course the room sizes are different, but even so, it was still too big.
Considering that only four students from Blue Dormitory entered this year, it certainly seems like that’s the case.
“Anyway, I’ll make sure to put the school rules into your head by tomorrow.”
“…..Can’t we take it slow?”
“Yes. You shouldn’t take it slow. I heard from Luna that you met students on your way here and acted in a vulgar manner. As a child of the Duke of Widia, you shouldn’t have acted in such a way from the beginning.”
“No, I’m saying they collided first?”
“If it were another nobleman, he would have called it vulgar behavior and avoided it on his own.”
As the King of Heroes said, most nobles of my position would have avoided that situation, calling it vulgar behavior.
Instead of getting your hands dirty with dirty work, use the hands of your subordinates.
Because that was the mindset of the nobles.
“So Lisa said that Lord Locke bumped into her on purpose?”
“……”
“Let’s start class.”
It was at that moment that I was about to start class without any hesitation.
“Oh, wait a minute. Please postpone class for a bit.”
“yes?”
“I think there’s been a little bit of trouble. Well… I’d like to think it’s nothing serious.”
I sat at the table, then quietly grabbed my sword and stood up.

Luna has had to take more control of herself since she grew cat ears, a tail, and slightly furry arms.
For example, when a bug suddenly flies in front of your eyes, your body moves on its own.
The gaze follows the movement of light reflected somewhere.
Sleeping without thinking, and wanting to take off all my clothes and lie down when I see sunlight, etc.
Perhaps because the cat’s soul was mixed in, the habit caused a strong desire.
Of course, it’s not to the point where I can’t stand it because my soul is still mixed in when I was a human, but there were still times when I did it unconsciously.
Of course, there are not only bad points.
“Meow……”
“Huh? Why are you like that?”
“Someone is coming.”
With my cat’s keen senses, I sensed that someone was coming here.
-Snap!
Luna perked up her ears and wrinkled her nose, frowning sharply.
“It smells so strong. Ugh. I think I’m going to throw up.”
As a cat who hates strong smells, Luna also now hates things like perfume and alcohol.
As Luna had expected, a boy wearing the school uniform walked down the hallway in front of them, accompanied by two maids and a knight.
Luna and Lisa went to a corner of the wall and quietly bowed their heads, although it was not known which family they were from since they were wearing blue name tags.
“what?”
But the boy did not pass by.
He stood in front of Luna, unable to pass by her perking ears.
“Is it Suin? It’s my first time seeing you… What a precious guy.”
Suin is considered to be a being that does not currently exist in the world.
When the destruction took place, people thought the enemies were beastmen and talked about rejecting beastmen, but in reality, beastmen were living in hiding in the human world in a polymorphic state.
Luna and I look different, but since we are humans with cat ears, it was only natural that we would mistake her for the cat-like creatures that appear in literature.
“I’ll take him. He’s precious, so take him away without getting hurt.”
At those words, the knight next to him moved as if he was familiar with this action.
Lisa quickly opened her mouth at that action.
“We are servants of the Duke of Widia. You may not know who you are, but we are officially contracted beings. This kind of behavior is unacceptable.”
The boy’s lips twitched at those words.
“You dare talk back to me, you bitch! Don’t you know who I am?”
“I’m sorry, but this is our first time in the dorms, so we’re not yet fully acquainted with the students who live here.”
“Hey you bitch!”
At those words, the boy glared at the knight next to him, seeming angry.
“Bring this bitch! How dare you, a rascal like Widia, say such things to me! Do you know who I am!”
The student raised his hand in anger.
Lisa quickly closed her eyes at the action, but couldn’t help but be shocked by the next sound she heard.
-Crunch!
“Kuaaaaaaah!”
“Meow~”
Lisa wounded the chest of the knight who was trying to take her away.
Blood was dripping from her sharp nails, and Luna licked the blood, feeling something so good about it.
Her pupils became vertical and the hairs on her tail, which had been hidden under her skirt, stood up.
The boy seemed angry at the sight and pulled out the sword at his waist.
“You dare…..!”
“Who are you to be talking nonsense?”
-Creepy!
The boy couldn’t open his mouth until the very end.
A chill ran down my spine and I stopped holding the sword.
“Lisa, Luna.”
“Your Majesty, Your Highness!”
“Meow!”
The moment I saw a male student walking towards me with his arms crossed over his head and no manners at all, I couldn’t help but freeze.
Aimless killing intent continued to spread around, shouting into the air that it would kill anything other than what it was protecting.
The moment you move the sword, you are killed, no matter what.
kill.
Must kill.
Move a little more.
The air continued to move like that.
He couldn’t move an inch.

[
The ability is activated because the opponent is emitting life force.
Recently, I have been able to control my hero’s abilities little by little, but the basic way to use my hero’s abilities was through actual combat.
The opponent is trying to kill me or is exuding murderous intent.
Thinking back now, both Aizen and Corlorence really did try to kill me, but whatever it was, that time made me who I am today.
‘This kid. He really tried to kill Lisa.’
The hero’s abilities expand in proportion to my growth.
Now that I had control, it was entirely my choice whether or not I could use the hero’s abilities.
But I used “Life Aiming for the Sky” generously throughout the building.
‘Let’s establish discipline.’
Not only this guy, but this place is home to many nobles, so you never know when something like this might happen again.
I thought I would establish discipline and make sure something like this never happens again.
When I glared at the boy, he shouted with a trembling face.
“Go, how dare you threaten Atolan Ki Koharit, the successor to the West!”
“…..Atolan?”
“How dare someone like Widia use my name so carelessly…!”
“Atolan….. Ha. Shit, you really lost, you son of a bitch!”
How dare an incompetent prince like you try to fall behind.
