Chapter 169 – Academy (8)

Suho Kang, who was dripping with nosebleeds, hesitated. He hurriedly closed the bathroom door and shouted.

“What, what!”
“Oh..! Sin, I’m sorry.”

After adjusting my pants, I came out of the bathroom frowning.

The saintess, her face slightly reddened, averted her gaze. She said, glaring at her.

“To enter someone else’s room recklessly… What is this?”
“Really sorry. I felt bad, so I couldn’t help it.”

“Persimmon..?”

She straightened her posture. She straightened the hem of her disheveled dress as if in a hurry.

“Whoa… Yes. It’s a feeling. I had a good feeling from a young age.”

Shut her mouth It was absurd. She breaks down the door all of a sudden just because she’s barely perceptible.

Besides, I saw you for the first time today.

I was annoyed for a moment. I was about to scream, but my eyes met the saintess’s.

I saw her large, sparkling eyes. She barely held her mouth as it was about to open. She couldn’t be mad at all.

“What is it? Please tell me in detail. Because I don’t know anything.”

The saintess pursed her lips, thinking about something in her.

“Umm… I’ll start off by apologizing. I am so sorry for coming into your room so rudely.”

She bowed her head. Something huge rattled. The few remaining painters disappeared at once.

“Hmmmm… Why did you do that?”

“Yes. Let me explain from the beginning. I am a servant of Goddess Freyja. Others call me a saint.”

She nodded and remembered something about her.

“Ah!”

It was embarrassing to realize this now. The temple she attended with her mother when she was young was the Goddess Freyja Church.

Since she only called her Goddess, she forgot for a moment.

The goddess she supposedly saved from Anne. She was the goddess Freya.

“Let’s sit down and talk. I will bring you something to drink.”
“Oh, thank you. Suho Kang.”

She searched the refrigerator but couldn’t find a suitable car.

Pouring plain water into her cup cooled her complicated head.

‘She is the saint of Goddess Freyja..’

In fact, she felt very betrayed.

A few days ago. Because she didn’t help me when I was having a hell of a time in my hotel room.

‘After..’

She soon sat across the table from her saintess.

“Here is the water. There is no such thing as tea.”
“I have enough of this. Anyway, Kang Soo-ho. Could you please speak to me?”

The constant smile was a little burdensome. The existence of a saintess was too polite.

“···Why?”
“Because you are the warrior chosen by the goddess.”

“If you’re a warrior…?”
“You are the only one who can save this messy world.”

For a moment, her mind stopped. She thought she was the main character of the world, but it was real.

“…I’m a real hero?”

The saintess smiled brightly and said.

“Yes. Haven’t you grown up without much trouble so far? I don’t know if you felt it, but that was the Goddess’ protection.”
“God bless you…”

She couldn’t readily agree. She remembered the hell she had been through a few days ago.

Her face hardened. The saintess tilted her head and said.

“Have you not experienced a miracle yourself recently? The goddess must have exerted her power for the sake of the hero…”

She remembered the time when she had taken Ann’s face with a brick.

“It was… It was.”

The saintess smiled as she put her hands together on her chest. My eyes were drawn to her pulsing flesh.

“Ah..! I’m so glad she felt grace. I don’t know exactly what happened, but maybe the ordeal came. Because she was a goddess who couldn’t see the suffering Suho. Of course… But it’s not without a price.”

“Cost..?”

“Yes. It is not easy for God to directly intervene in the phenomenal world. The Goddess has been asleep since then. For the time being, she won’t be able to protect Suho.”

“Ah..?”

Her mouth fell open. Thanks to her defeating Anne, she couldn’t protect her for a while…?

“Before he goes to sleep. You left me a message. Guardian-nim will come here soon, so please watch over him until he wakes up.”

“Three, my God…”

The back of her head was sore. She believed only in goddesses and she went into that suspicious room. She said that then she was asleep..?

A thousand thoughts raced through her head. The saintess, who did not even know that, continued her words.

“Especially, Suho’s seeds are really valuable, so he told us to keep them carefully. Uh..? Why did you look so hard? Can’t it be that something has happened in just a few days?”

He forced his trembling lips up.

“No way.. No problem.”

“I am very fortunate. Then seeds. So, you’re guessing you haven’t noticed the character? Suho-sama isn’t ready yet…”

She spoke, but she didn’t hear. With the sound of tinnitus, the world spun around.

“… Suho. Where are you comfortable? May I bless you?”
“Ahaha.. No! By the way… That characteristic. Once you wake up, can’t you go back?”

I asked after clearing up her trembling voice, but a desperate answer came back.

“It’s almost impossible in the usual way. I would have to make a big sacrifice… No way..?”
“Oh, no. No problem at all Just in case.”

I said it urgently to the saintess who narrowed her eyes as if in doubt.

“Yeah, by the way! My, if I were the hero…”
“Yes. Please tell me.”

“So… That’s…”

The saintess hesitated and asked.

“No way.. Is there a problem with the characteristics..?”
“Oh no! If you’re a hero, uh, you’re a very important person, right?”
“···Sure.”

The distance between the saintess’ eyebrows gradually narrowed.

She had to change the subject. Her mouth was parched. She couldn’t say that she, like pervert, had a hearing or a blessing.

At last. He said whatever he could. Something that had bothered me for a while came out.

“Lydia. Go, can I touch her breasts?”

As she talked, she thought for a moment that she was a genius. A hero is the most important being in the world.

‘Isn’t it okay to touch her breasts?’

She swallowed her saliva as she watched her sway. She raised her gaze with anticipation.

The moment she made eye contact with the saintess, she was stung. There was only contempt in her cold eyes.

“Suho-sama… You’re playing too much.”

She was still smiling but cold. All the warmth in her voice was gone.

Her shoulders hunched involuntarily.

“M-I’m sorry…”

It felt like the place was shrinking at the cold voice.

***

9 a.M. On the second day of the exchange meeting.

The cadets gathered at the entrance of Elvenheim Academy.

There were two things to do today.
Field trips and friendly matches.

In the morning, the cadets were scheduled to tour the elven academy.

Siu clicked her tongue as she waited for her Evan to come as the guide. This guy is late today, just like the first day.

‘Uh?’

I happened to see Suho Kang, and his face color was different from yesterday.

The guy who was dying all recovered. His drooping shoulders straightened proudly. Even the dark circles that were dark have almost disappeared.

‘Boy. How strong are you? I can harass you more.’

When you are thinking about what gift to give your brother-in-law.

Evan showed up later.

20 minutes later, I walked leisurely. It was absurd.

“Um… Everyone is here. Then follow me.”

One cadet said, frowning.

“Wait a minute. Shouldn’t I apologize if I’m late?”

Evan glanced at her watch and clicked her tongue.

“With only 20 minutes… Ah..! 20 minutes is quite a long time for a short-lived human. I made a mistake. Sorry.”
“Her..”

He smiled and fluttered his cape as he entered the academy.

Seeing his careless behavior made me feel sick.

He wondered how he could eat her saintess in front of him within a week.

‘How will I react if my fiancé whines at me?’

Rolling his head, he entered the academy.

There were few buildings.

I saw densely packed green trees. It was like entering a well-managed arboretum.

“This is a place where most of the children who did not make a contract with the spirits go.”
“Children?”
“They are young elves under the age of 20.”

After walking for a while, I saw elves who looked like middle school students. They raised their heads while playing in the water.

“Uh..? Look over there! You’re human! You have very short ears!”
“Uh… Can you hear me that way?”
“I know. I guess you can’t hear us right now? Hey man, can you hear this?”

Evan shouted at the elves snooping this way.

“Everyone, don’t pay attention to humans and go back to your seats. It interferes with the exchange meeting.”
“Ugh.. Yes!”

The children scattered all over the place.

One elf leaned against a tree and closed his eyes. Some elves waggled and splashed at the water’s edge.

Evan looked at them and said.

“That is a training to build affinity with spirits. Connecting with nature is the most important thing.”

A cadet who appeared to be an Elementalist asked a question.

“How long does it take to contract a lower spirit if you train like that?”
“It depends on the talent, but it usually takes about five years.”

“Isn’t that too slow? You don’t use spirit stones?”

The main training method for humans is to meditate while holding a spirit stone in their hands. Compared to that, the elf’s method was too slow.

Evan smiled.

“There is no point in trying to get stronger quickly with the Spirit Stone. Limits come quickly. You can tell from the fact that not a single human contracted with the highest level spirit.”
“That..”

“This is the way to go. Besides, five years… Unlike humans, who are short-lived, it’s not a very long time for elves.”

Evan’s face was full of ridicule.

*

After passing through the forest, we arrived at a wide open area. A square marble floor was visible.

It was a battleground.

Passing through the academy, he never turned off the road. It seemed to come straight from here in the first place.

When the sparring elves found Evan, they tilted their heads at her.

“Evan? Why are you already here… Wasn’t the friendly sparring in the afternoon?”

“Haa.. It’s been a while since I’ve been with humans, so I’m tired. After the goodwill match, I plan to let the rest go on their own.”

“Uh.. Haven’t the instructors come yet?”

“All right. I’m in charge. Anyway, who is my opponent?”

It’s finally the long-awaited training time. Siu stepped forward.

“Ohh.. 6 stars? It’s pretty good for a human.”

Evan held her cane and raised her head. He was the pose you saw on the poster.

She looked at the corners of her lips that went up in agony. There were so many places I wanted to hit.

‘Where shall I bleed…’

Evan brushed the dust off my clothes. Spreading her arms out, she said.

“Well… The result is obvious… But let’s start. I’ll give you three. In the meantime, just defend. Please come in.”

The guy’s tall nose was to my liking. He nodded.

“Okay. I want a nosebleed.”
