Legendary Hero is an Academy Honors Student – 198



197

The Battle of Ruse a school competition where the honor and pride of Rumern and Seilun are at stake.

Since it was a competition between those who represented not only the school’s pride but also the tribe the Ruse match was an event that many people paid attention to every year.

Even Azonia and Damian other hero military academies were paying close attention to Lucejeon.

Although they are not rivals like Lumern and Seilun they cannot help but have a sense of rivalry as they are educational institutions that foster the same hero candidates.

The scale of the event was so large that it attracted the world’s attention.

And at the Ruse match many external guests were invited whether they were Lumern or Seilun.

Not only powerful people who can control the world but even heroes who are famous.

External VIPs who received invitations arrived at Seirun one by one.

In addition many people gathered from all over the world to watch the Ruse exhibition.

Literally one huge festival.

The very center of the elf realm.

Numerous races from all over the world gathered in Seirun which boasts extreme cold.

The first day announcing the opening of the Ruse match.

Rumern first-year students gathered at the grand parade ground had to face the crowds that filled the stands.

“I’m shaking.”

“Haha… I heard the story but it’s not a joke?”

The first graders looked nervous at the fact that tens of thousands of spectators were paying attention to them.

It was then.

[Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to Seirun! My name is Idyn Claypo! I am Seilun’s student who is hosting this Ruse exhibition!]

Yidin who had been the emcee at the welcome party two days ago grabbed a microphone with a loudspeaker spell and shouted.

[And of course it’s Miss Cheira Sikun from Rumern who is hosting the event!]

[Nice to meet you all!]

Cheyla and Idin who were sitting at the social table introduced themselves.

[Today’s first race is none other than the first graders’ obstacle race! Hey~ It’s a really cute and fresh game just like first graders isn’t it?]

Cheyla said with a bright smile.

Then laughter erupted from all over the audience.

Although they were students at the Hero Military Academy praised as the world’s best talents and called hero candidates on the outside they were nothing more than boys and girls in their mid-teens.

Since he doesn’t look as dignified or dignified as he did in his upper grades I don’t know why but I sympathized with Cheira’s words that he was cute and fresh.

In addition the fact that it was called an obstacle race also made me laugh in a strange way.

I was familiar with the obstacle race because it was often held not at great places like the Hero Academy but at places like sports events at other ordinary schools.

[Of course it’s not an ordinary obstacle race! Each school has three ‘jockeys’ for the steeplechase! These jockeys must cross the finish line to receive points! The rest of the students take on the role of attacking and eliminating the enemy’s riders or protecting their allies! Of course if that were all it was it wouldn’t be fun right? Non-runners can score points by eliminating each other. If you earn points and cross the finish line safely you also get points!]

Idin explained about the steeplechase.

In other words the one with more jockeys passing the finals wins the game.

On the other hand if your team’s riders are wiped out early you can quickly annihilate the opposing team’s riders and conversely it is possible to turn the tables by defeating all students who are not riders and scoring points.

“Hoo. “That sounds fun.”

“Are you going to start a fight? “It was no ordinary obstacle race after all.”

An exclamation erupted from the audience.

Meanwhile in the stands students from Lumern’s commercial club were selling food.

The Lumern commercial club was also famous for never leaving out where the money was.

Of course in Seilun it was also a club period that was viewed with the most unfavorable eyes.

Gene Naia the head of the Lumerun Commercial Club proceeded with the ‘Betting Game’ as always and asked the elf crowd.

“Elven gentleman. Don’t you guys ‘bet’?”

“Do you think we would do something so vulgar?”

When a student wearing a Rumeren school uniform approached and asked about betting the elf man frowned and looked at Gene.

The companions looked at Gene and snorted as if agreeing with the elf man’s words.

Jaune grinned as he looked at the elf.

“okay. Elves you are not sure that Seirun will win. All right.”

“for a moment. Why do you say that not participating in such a shallow game means you are not sure that Seirun will win?”

When the elf man asked with a straight face Jaune who was about to leave shrugged his shoulders.

“You have to be confident that you will win your bet. The humans all bet that the Lumern students would win. “Because I am confident that Lumern will win.”

“laugh!”

The elf man who had been provoked by Gene who spoke calmly hardened his face and took out a money bag from his chest and said.

“I’ll bet that Seilun wins.”

“You don’t have to overdo it.”

“It’s not unreasonable! In Ruse battles Seirun has always won! Of course we have to win this bet!”

The enraged elf man and his companions bet all their money that Seilun would win.

As he left the place one of the members asked.

“Chief. Among humans there are many people who bet money that Seirun would win.”

It is true that the first year of Lumern’s generation is so competitive that most people have placed bets on Lumern.

However everywhere there are gamblers with the heart of an animal who aim for reverse dividends.

“huh. But then those people won’t bet money.”

Jaune spoke calmly and grinned.

“Hehe. I really like Rusejeon! “I heard it’s perfect for a quick bite!”

“But last year while doing something like this the former head of the department Senior Tet got caught by Professor Halind so you saw what happened.”

“….”

Jaune’s face hardened at his junior’s words.

And then he spoke in a solemn voice.

“are you okay. I didn’t get it the year before last. High risk! Hi return! “The heart of a beast is a merchant’s virtue!”

‘If you make a virtue out of something like that you don’t have the heart of an animal it just seems like you’re an animal.’

He was a junior who sighed deeply.

Meanwhile the families and acquaintances of the students who visited the stadium were talking directly with the students to cheer them on.

“I’m proud of you.”

“Participating in the Ruse Battle… you are an honor to the family!”

Voices full of emotion were heard from all over.

At that time someone who caught people’s attention appeared.

He is tall probably 180cm and has broad shoulders.

Solid upper body.

He was a man with such a sharp spirit that one could believe he was a skilled warrior.

However the man with light blue hair and eyes was dressed as a wizard not a knight.

People who appeared to be attendants were following around.

Everyone held their breath as they looked at him.

It has to be that way.

A hegemony in the western part of the continent.

The head of Lwalin one of the two major mountain ranges of the Rodren Empire.

Chad Lwalin.

People looked nervous at the appearance of the great wizard whose name was listed on the hero record.

“Abad Chelsea.”

“father?”

“dad! “You said you couldn’t come!”

The Lwalin siblings looked at their father with surprised expressions.

Celia and Chloe who were talking together were also surprised.

‘This is Chad Lwalin. ‘Are you the hero who divides Rodren?’

Leo looked at Chad Lwalin with shining eyes.

‘It’s strong.’

At the very least he was an incredibly talented person one of the top three wizards Leo had ever seen in his life.

‘Are you a battle mage?’

Leo muttered to himself as he felt Chad’s sharply refined prayer.

Chelsea’s desire to become a battle mage appears to have been influenced by her father.

Chade who was laughing and talking with his son and daughter saw the three people take a step back.

“Celia. I’ve been hearing a lot about your performance these days. Seld is proud of you saying that you are following in Reese’s footsteps and showing outstanding performance. amazing.”

“Thank you for the compliment.”

Celia bowed her head politely.

Chad who smiled at Celia and patted her on the shoulder then looked at Chloe.

“You are Chloe Müller.”

“I meet the Master of the West Wind.”

Chloe greeted politely.

Master of the West Wind.

It is a name given by people to mean that it controls the winds of the western part of the continent.

Chade was actually a wizard with powerful magical power and skills enough to manipulate the atmosphere of the surrounding area.

He is a great wizard who can literally shake the heavens and earth.

“There is no need to greet someone too stiffly. “Because I’ve been hearing a lot about you.”

Chad smiled softly at Chloe.

“I hope you visit the Lwalin family sometime. “It is a great fortune for our family to be able to interact with the magic tower’s outstanding wizards and the wizards of the family.”

“It would be an honor if you invited me! “I will be happy to visit.”

Chad nodded while looking at Chloe who was smiling brightly and then looked at Leo one last time.

“You are Leo Plov.”

“hello.”

“I heard a lot about you from Chelsea. “It seems like your daughter is always indebted to you.”

“Thanks to Chelsea I am enjoying my school life.”

Chelsea laughed at Leo’s words.

“okay. “Is your mother okay?”

“It’s a shame because I corrected it too much.”

“Hehe. “It looks like that personality is still the same.”

Chade perhaps familiar with Raina burst out laughing and shook his head.

“I hope you visit Lwalin sometime.”

Chad said patting Chelsea’s head with his large hand.

“It seems like your daughter would like you to visit too.”

“Yes that’s right. Brother Leo. “Let’s play at my house during vacation.”

“Big?”

At that moment Chad’s eyes widened.

It was the first time for Chad to see his daughter being friendly to a boy her age.

Even the head of the world’s Lwalin family and a hero whose name was included in the hero record had no choice but to lose his composure for a moment.

“Hehe… Yes I hope you do. “I’m curious about what level of wizard you are.”

Leo nodded looking at Chad who maintained his composure and forced a smile.

“yes. “I will visit sometime during winter break.”

“Shall I go then too?”

“That would be fine too.”

After seeing Leo and Chloe chatting warmly Chad regained his composure a little.

“I’m looking forward to your performance in the match against Ruse.”

Chelsea looked excited as she watched Chad leave the room with a smile.

“You have to cheer up because dad is here to see you! Let’s do our best!”

Abad smiled and nodded as he looked at Chelsea who was smiling brightly.

Leo chuckled as he looked at that.

“Please take care of me.”

“Don’t worry the Seirun kids won’t let a single hair of yours touch you.”

Celia said with a grin.

Leo was one of the jockeys in this steeplechase event.

***

[ruler! The start is just around the corner! All first-year students please stand at the starting line!]

Cheira who served as host shouted in a cheerful voice.

The students stood at the starting line.

Rumern’s three riders were selected as the three fastest students.

Duran is a lightning auror and is considered to have the fastest legs in his entire class.

Eliza is capable of flying quickly and using Hwansu freely and it is difficult to distinguish between Duran and her in terms of pure speed.

And Leo who is slower than the two but is definitely the third fastest among first years.

It was literally a perfect composition.

The eyes of first-year Seirun students were focused on three people with headbands tied on their heads to show that they were jockeys.

“By the way only one of the grade representatives showed up as the Seilun rider.”

Celia narrowed her eyes.

Seilun’s grade representative was ranked 1st 2nd and 3rd in order of grades.

Among them only Eiran who is second in rank is the flag bearer.

The other two were not.

“I don’t think 1st or 3rd place is suitable for a speed battle.”

Abad said calmly.

“weird. “I guess Eiran isn’t particularly specialized in speed right?”

Chelsea tilted her head.

“There must be a reason.”

That was when Abad smiled.

[It looks like everyone is ready! Then get ready!]

Commentator Ceira held up a signal near the starting line.

Seeing that the first graders lowered their posture.

[start!]

pop-!

At the same time as the signal fire exploded.

Grumbling!

“Leo! You drugged me! “He’s dead!”

Quagga-ga-ga-ga-ga-!

At the same time as the angry shout a huge explosion occurred.

“Huh?”

“What! “Is this an indiscriminate attack without distinction between friend and foe?!”

Lumern students looked shocked at the sudden attack.

Woe!

However Leo who broke through the flames calmly landed on the ground and took the lead and started running.

“Stand there!”

With her red eyes flashing Runia fired her next spell at Leo’s back.

moment-!

Grumble! Kugugoogung-!

The flames extending from the side blocked Runia’s flames.

Runia paused at that.

“It’s impossible for it to target the rider out of nowhere.”

Celia engulfed in a fiery aura smiled and blocked Runia’s path.

“I wanted to hang out with you once Runia El Lund.”

“Celia Gerdinger?”

“As a user of the same Phoenix Flame once…”

“hey! Leo! Don’t run away! sorry! “I really want to fight you too but right now defeating that guy is my priority… Let’s fight later!”

Runia passed by Celia apologized and then chased after Leo with a scary look on her face.

Hwii-!

Celia who was left alone looked blank.

The wind blew and blew her black hair.

“Three Celia?”

Chloe called her with an awkward look.

“It’s Celia Gerdinger and Chloe Müller!”

“I’m not the standard-bearer but I’m subject to check!”

“Everyone form camp!”

At that time first-year Seilun students surrounded Celia.

It was necessary to quickly eliminate dangerous people even if they were not jockeys.

“Hehehe.”

Celia lowered her head and smiled darkly.

Flash-!

Celia’s red eyes flashed.

“Heek?”

At that moment the Seilun students looked scared.

I know those eyes.

Those eyes were very familiar.

That was because they were very similar to Runia’s eyes which had suffered so much.

“Avoid blood!”

“Run away!”

Seilun students instinctively sensed danger and scattered in all directions.

Quagga-ga-ga-ga-gang-!

And Celia’s flame auror devastated the entire area.

Celia with a sinewy forehead looked at Runia running away with a cruel smile.

Celia elegantly brushed her hair and took a deep breath.

‘Let’s calm down. As the daughter of the Gerdinger family I can’t get excited and act obscene in front of everyone…’

The priority now is to defeat that guy. The priority now is to defeat that guy. The priority now is to defeat that guy.

Celia’s eyes trembled.

Runia’s words kept ringing in my head.

‘Let’s calm down. Calm down. Celia Gerdinger. You can’t get excited. Let’s calm down… calm down…’

“…How could this be?! Are you ignoring me? Runia el Lunda! “I will destroy you!”

In the end Celia unable to control her excitement began to furiously chase after Runia.

Looking at that scene Chloe sighed softly.

“If it’s like this it’s just a strategy and nothing else.”
