A Veteran of the Hero Academy

“haha! You must be a swordsman!”

“You look younger than you look! A genius! genius.”

“This will make the task easier than you think.”

These are the f*cking kids right?

It was my first impression of meeting the members of the operation with the grand name of a sword that pierces the heart. Most of the swords that pierce the heart consisted of the upper ranks of the Imperial Knights.

However, the atmosphere of the Imperial Knights was very different now than it was when they were next to Kate. Apparently, from the outside, they were guys with expressionless faces and only talking about what they needed… Now they looked like some simple country youth. However, I didn’t like the fact that all of them had unlucky faces.

“ha ha ha! You don’t have to be stiff. Aren’t we comrades now?”

One of them, an unlucky handsome blonde, patted me on the shoulder and laughed out loud.

“My name is Beharn, the trio! Let’s do well on this mission together!”

Contrary to his youthful appearance, the man was in charge. The vibe it gives off is top notch.

Handsome, good skills, good job, good personality… .

Is this bastard going to come back soon?

“Yes. My name is Aiden. Take good care of me.”

Contrary to the inside, his face smiled softly and held Beharn’s hand. Beharn’s hands were hard and covered in calluses.

Of course, my hands won’t be too heavy now.

“okay! I saw it on Ikito, but he’s a really hot guy! A little bit of honor, but… haha! I’ll sit over there.”

“Beharn-sama is indeed proud of the Empire.”

To be honest, I don’t know who Beharn is, but if he had the highest level of skill at his age, it would certainly be the pride of the Empire.

“haha! I’m ashamed. Then the meeting begins.”

As if my prediction was correct, Beharn said, scratching his unlucky chin.

Unlike the last meeting, my life and death depend on this meeting, so I listened to it with concentration.

In summary, ‘Sword that pierces the heart’ was an assassination operation of a small number of elites to quickly pick up Kim Ik-han’s hair. It was absurd that a small number had to break into a capital city full of rednecks, but soon nodded at the fact that there were three superlatives, myself included. The captains of groups 3 and 4 had the highest level of skill. The captain of the 6th group was a high rank that was close to the superlative rank.

No matter how many superlatives there are currently in the Republican Party, it seems that it could be finished surprisingly easily, as it is said that two people are the maximum. One of them was a romantic prosecutor I had met before, and the other was a woman, someone I didn’t know.

Since there are three of us, won’t we win if we do the math roughly? Even the romantic prosecutor, because I robbed the dog last time.

“… It seems like it should go that way. It is said that Styruma participated in the war, but their weapons are only annoying in mass battles, but they are not a threat to the best warriors. Not to mention other small kingdoms. Let’s finish it quickly and go back to the Empire. All of the Republic food tastes strange, so I miss the Empire food so much.”

Beharn banged the desk with a confident smile. Other knights followed him, and I followed.

“It is quite a shame that it has taken more than a month to process one such republic. haha.”

Crito, who was the 4th team leader, raised an eyebrow and said.

“I think so too. I’m worried about my fiance who will be alone right now. Because she’s not the only one who gets entangled in her outstanding looks. We must end this war as soon as possible and return home.”

Team 6’s captain, Furoa, nodded and answered.

Wait a minute… What are these bastards doing now?

“Oh, the famous white rose girl?”

“Yes. I intend to propose to her after this war is over. I even saved the ring like this.”

“ha ha ha! You really have to come back alive. After all, the opponent is the Republic, so we’ll be able to finish it soon! Easier than eating a cold cake with a fork!”

that… stop it shit

What are you doing these crazy people?

“greatness! It is forbidden to be vigilant! Have you forgotten the greatest principle of the Imperial Knights? You-all?”

Fortunately, Beharn stopped their conversation with a hard face as if he wasn’t as stupid as them.

“ah… okay. sorry.”

“I must have been too excited about the idea of getting married.”

They both hardened their faces and nodded, admitting their mistake.

“Awkward… ha ha ha! It’s a joke! The opponent is the Republic, what will happen! Be sure to propose at ‘Golden Butterfly’! The atmosphere there is great!”

Beharn, whose face was twitching, burst out laughing and tapped Furoa’s shoulder. The other guys followed Beharn and laughed.

“It’s my daughter’s birthday when I go this time, and I’m worried about what to buy. In the capital of the republic, there may be toys that children will like… .”

“Then we should succeed in our mission more neatly. Just in case you break the toy store in the middle of a tough battle! ha ha ha!”

Watching each other rush to put the flags, alarm bells filled my head.

There was no sense of crisis in these guys’ minds.

This looks like it’s going to be shit.

***

“Why do you look like that? Aiden, comrade?”

With bombs in both hands, Jisoo, who was carrying a backpack the size of her own, rubbed me and asked if that was not enough.

“I don’t have a good feeling. hey! Shit- I told you not to rub your body with a bomb!”

“Hehe- don’t worry! This is not going to explode right away!”

Lee Ji-su smiled softly and turned the bomb in his hand as if juggling.

I shook my head at Lee Ji-soo’s brazen attitude and looked around. Countless imperial troops were standing behind us, and in front of us was a line of black walls that looked stronger than any other castle.

Can you break through that high, solid black wall? Even if you do, it might be possible to see the Imperial Army behind you… I thought that

““High mountain ~ deep valley ~””

As the Imperial Army beat the drums, they made a certain rhythm and shouted reluctant slogans. The sound that kept sticking to my mouth made me feel dirty.

There was no reason. It was just an ominous song.

“The snowy electric wire~”

“Don’t follow along. Because I feel bad for nothing.”

He hurriedly dried Jisoo Lee, who was singing along happily while waving her right hand. Jisoo Lee pursed her lips and muttered for a moment, then swallowed the words.

“hey!!”

When I turned my head to the harsh voice, Kate, who was approaching me, stood crookedly and looked up at me. The white woman I had seen before, next to me, looked at me and nodded slightly. It wasn’t a very good memory at the end, but it was a thing of the past, so we bowed our heads together.

is not it? Is it a good memory because I added a little?

“Be careful! Be careful! Just do what you’re told! Also, don’t act like an idiot and don’t get hurt or get hurt!!”

Kate raised her voice as she pressed her fingers against my chest. Anxiety swelled up at him, but he struggled to swallow the worry in Kate’s eyes.

It’s just a kid with a bad home education-. Recalling it, he forced himself to swallow.

“okay. Don’t be shy and hide behind your back.”

“huh. If you don’t say that, of course I’ll be behind you! I am a princess, a princess This is the most precious life here!”

At my words, Kate wrinkled her nose and raised her chin. I wanted to put a fist into my chin, but there were too many eyes around me.

“Aiden.”

When I heard the sound of calling me again, I saw Andrea approaching, guarded by the white armored men.

“Ah- Andrea.”

“huh. Why is he here again? Don’t worry about the kids.”

The men in white armor looked at me with frowns, but I ignored him lightly and waved to Andrea. Kate snuggled up next to me and glared at Andrea.

“In this siege, I will not be able to act like Aiden-sama as I am a back support.”

Andrea frowned and looked at Kate and said to me.

“Oh, I see. it’s okay. Behurn or something, they say that there are only f*ckin eaters in the Republic.”

“Uh-huh.”

“be quiet. is that so? But, in case you don’t know, Aiden-sama, be careful.”

The white guy next to me coughed because of my shame, and Andrea looked at him and said a word, then looked at me and smiled again.

“Look at that fake smile.”

“… Please take care of yourself too.”

Kate pointed at Andrea and whispered to me. But the whispering voice was so loud that everyone around could hear it. Andrea answered with a slight frown on her fine forehead.

I don’t know why, but Kate and Andrea hated each other. That good Andrea couldn’t have done anything wrong, so Kate must have been pissed.

“I’m doing my best as an imperial army! Aiden! ruler! Support from the Princess!”

“Uh- Shit! What is it? awkwardly.”

“Shut up! Just be still!”

Kate, with her haircut, glared at Andrea with an arrogant expression, patted me on the shoulder, blushing at my reaction and screaming loudly.

“… oh Aiden, I will bless you.”

Andrea smiled softly and walked over to me. The white guys around him flinched and stepped forward, then backed away again at the word of blessing. Seeing Andrea approaching, Kate pulled my arm, but I held on.

I don’t know what a blessing is, but it must be good because a saint does it. I was on my way to the heart of the republic with a bunch of flagged guys right now, so I needed something.

Andrea, who came right in front of me, smiled a little and gently wrapped her arms around my face. Kate grabbed my arm even tighter.

A soft touch fell on his lips. I could feel Andrea’s soft tongue coming into me without hesitation.

“These crazy kites!!! what are you doing!!!”

Kate’s tearing voice woke me from a dazed head in the sudden situation.

“away! Come down!!!”

Kate clenched her teeth and dropped Andrea off me. Andrea, who was away from me, raised an eyebrow slightly, looking down at Kate. Kate gritted her teeth, blushing like she was about to explode.

“It’s a blessing. don’t get hurt Aiden.”

Andrea, who spoke softly, returned.

“hey! great?! good! There are a lot of people who see me like this, so it’s nice to do something like that!”

“No, it’s a blessing. blessing. Because it is sacred.”

“It’s not that castle!! Where the hell is blessing with a kiss?!”

“friend! I’ll bless you too!! Revolution Kiss!!”

Kate kept tearing me apart from my side, and Jisoo Lee pressed her lips to me. I felt like my stamina was exhausted even before the war started because I was drying both sides.

After that, Kate, who had been banging on me with her fists for a while, came back with a vigor. As Kate and Andrea disappeared, Seo-ah quietly approached me, paying attention to the people around me.

Seo-ah constantly looked around to see if there was anything wrong with her, like someone who stole bread. Seo-ah approached me so carefully and tied a white string tightly around my wrist.

“What’s this?”

“zero… It’s a republican tradition. There is a myth that doing this will bring you good fortune on the battlefield… . Then I will go!”

Seo-ah, who had tied a white string, bowed her head with a reddened face, and quickly turned around, looking at her again.

This is really worrisome… .

As I looked at the white string tied tightly around my forearm, I wondered if there was a flag on me too. However, I couldn’t untie the string that Seo-ah gave me and throw it away.

“A set of swords that pierce the heart!!”

A loud voice resounded, and I stopped worrying and moved with Lee Ji-soo. There, unlike the last time, the knights were gathering with their faces as usual. I was a little nervous about that serious look, but it was relieved.

Each of the knights were riding luxurious looking horses. At that, Lee Ji-soo lowered her upper body and I quickly got on. There was a brief commotion around, but it soon became quiet again. Something heavy fell on the faces of all knights, soldiers, and regardless of their position.

Boo woo-.

A horn sound resounded from the center, and first, the Imperial soldiers began to walk slowly. As tens of thousands of soldiers moved, the ground shook slightly. We were moving in front of it. As if not to lose to the horses next to him, Lee Ji-soo pulled her head out and pushed her slender legs hard.

Not swaying is now quite a word.

The closer the walls of the capital city, the greater their rigidity felt like a mountain made of iron. It felt like recklessly approaching an impenetrable shield.

However, he could not stop being pushed by the soldiers walking behind him, so he had no choice but to keep moving. As we got closer to a certain distance, we saw the Republican Army on top of the wall. There were soldiers in various outfits, most of them were wearing red berets, followed by those in various clothes.

Maybe it’s the Styruma guys. The guys who played the guitar back then also had strange clothes.

And between the walls of the fortress, there were a lot of unknown objects, and the appearance was somewhat reluctant.

Eventually, as we got closer, I saw the guys on the top of the wall smiling.

His expression was like a hunter happy with his prey jumping into the trap and leaving work early.

“Shake!! That’s kind of weird!!!”

I screamed and pulled out my sword, and the knights around me held up their brilliant golden shields.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The black objects between the walls spit out fire and shot something dull. As I concentrated my energy, as time slowed down, I could see something flying in detail.

A large, black, round object. The phrase written in white pen underneath caught my attention.

– With love from Styruma ❤ I really hate homework for vacation.

What the hell kind of place is Styruma?

“do not worry!! We are the shield of the Empire!! Get your shield!!!”

Beharn roared with an energetic voice and held out a shield the size of his own. Before long, a brilliant golden energy emanated from the shield, and it continued with the aura radiating from the shields of the knights next door. The energy riding on the shields of the knights spread out like golden waves and eventually connected to the shields of the soldiers.

The golden waves soon turned into a round semicircle and enveloped the Imperial Army. It was like a sunrise from the ground.

Empire Shield-.

A golden shield like the brilliant sun that can block anything the opponent does. It was quite a famous story, as far as I know.

Black objects with ugly phrases flew in and crashed into golden waves soon-.

Aww! Aww!

There was a deafening roar, and golden waves swayed. Contrary to his worries, the rumors about the Empire’s shield seemed to be true, and he blocked them without much damage.

“Hey hey hey!! You cowards use bombs!! We must all make a revolution!!”

Lee Ji-soo held a bomb in both hands and spewed steam out of her nose, voicing out anger. The bombs in Lee Ji-soo’s hands, and the bombs in the backpack… I was going to point out him, but I put up with it and turned my head.

The golden waves that filled the sky entered my gaze. But even if you block me on the spot, how are you going to approach me?

My question was answered surprisingly easily.

“Left-foot!!!”

Beharn, with a shield emitting a brilliant light, shouted so loudly that the battlefield shook—

““Left foot!!””

People followed and shouted and moved their left foot forward.

Koo-.

The sight of tens of thousands of troops moving at the same time was a spectacular sight that will never be forgotten.

“Right foot! left foot! Change your feet!”

what do you mean this is shit

Unlike me, who spit out insults, the soldiers moved in unison.

In any case, we slowly approached the wall in such an efficient way.
