Legendary Hero is an Academy Honors Student – 280



280

Lunch time.

Continuing from yesterday most of the Hero Academy students looked exhausted today.

“Aren’t these things tiring?”

Ar gave an expression of boredom.

Even the physically strong students of Azonia were exhausted by the reckless dwarves.

In particular since Ar was the class representative of Azonia there were many dwarves targeting Ar from all over.

“I wish you muscle idiot. “I’ve already decided on a Smith to sign an exclusive contract with.”

Ar pouted his lips and glanced to the side.

Dion Ar’s childhood friend and second-ranking Azonia second-year student was standing there.

Dion had decided on Smith early on.

Dion’s exclusive Smith was none other than Damian’s sophomore representative Dignes.

“Dignes offered to make you a weapon too right?”

“I did it.”

Ar crossed his arms.

The white tail was waving.

“But the weapons he made were not to my taste.”

The weapons made by Dignes had an overall sophisticated feel.

Another advantage was that it did not discriminate between the type and class of the weapon.

Are’s specialty is martial arts.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t use weapons.

Rather he had been trained from a young age to be able to use all kinds of weapons skillfully.

‘Because I respected Aron!’

The brave Aron.

According to literature he was a person close to martial arts who said there was no weapon he could not handle.

Ar tried to become like Aron from a young age.

The weapons made by Dignes were certainly excellent but in Ar’s opinion they lacked flexibility.

“What? Sometimes it becomes a sword! Sometimes it becomes a window! Also sometimes it would be nice to have a weapon that can double as an axe but is also easy to carry!”

“You’re too greedy.”

Dion who was clicking his tongue stopped walking.

And then I found Leo talking to someone on one side.

“There’s Leo Plov.”

“Black rabbit?!”

Are’s white tail! It stood stiffly as a ruler.

‘I’ll have to ask the Black Rabbit how he used his howl!’

Thinking that this was an opportunity to ask something he had been curious about for a few days Ar approached Leo.

Dion followed behind Ar.

“Black Rabbit I have something to ask you….”

“I wanted to talk to you. Leo Plov.”

Dion took a step forward holding the head of Ar who was blocking his path and pushing it aside.

Ar raised his eyes and kicked Dion’s ass.

Dion seemed to be used to it and ignored Ar.

“long time no see.”

“okay. “Is this the first time we’ve talked like this since the eve of the entrance exam in Azrek?”

Last summer vacation.

Leo chuckled as he recalled going to Azrek for Azonia’s entrance exam.

“I’ve always heard about your activities. “It’s a pity. It would have been better if you had come to Azonia.”

Dion who was tasting his food with regret grinned.

“In that sense I would like to spar with Leo Plovner….”

Bah!

Arga hit Dion on the back of the head.

In response Dion grabbed Ar by the collar.

“What are you doing?”

“You started the argument first.”

Ar said calmly.

“And Dad warned you not to fight while you’re inside Damien.”

“Of course Uncle Berga said that.”

‘Who is that belligerent-looking man?’

Leo thought of the hero Verga an instructor from Azonia who was a close friend and colleague of Ar’s father and mother Rayna.

It was time to make a curious expression.

“Battles are usually fought in secret.”

“Well if you spar we can fight secretly.”

Apparently Dion’s fighting style was quite flashy.

Dion said looking at Ar who was snorting.

“Ah you know. “The excitement of challenging a strong person.”

Dion looked at Leo with enthusiasm.

“I want to test how effective my power is against Leo Plov who is considered the strongest of our generation.”

‘I thought he was pretty calm but he has a tough personality.’

Leo was laughing and looking at Dion.

“Everyone gather together! “All students from each hero academy gather together!”

Azonia instructor Verga shouted in a loud voice.

Those words were loud enough to be heard by all the second graders here.

Everyone was surprised and quickly gathered together.

Starting with Ain of Lumern Herdium of Seirun and Verga of Azonia. And Damian’s second year teacher Smith Retana.

Students from each hero academy gathered together.

“Professor Ain what’s going on?”

During the period of Smith’s exclusive contract Lumern guaranteed students autonomy in their work at Damian.

The same was true not only for Rumern but also for other hero cadets.

Ain said in response to Duran’s question.

“Now not only the principal but also second-year professor Sedgen has entered the meeting and came to inform you of the situation.”

The Lumern students looked puzzled.

Meanwhile Ain spoke.

“You may know about a city called Tarkham in the eastern part of the continent.”

The edge of the dwarf territory.

Because it was a large dwarven metropolis and a producer of numerous magic stones and rare ores most people knew about Tarkham.

“Currently a report has been received that something unusual has occurred in Tarkham. There was a report that a huge monster half the size of Mount Erdien had appeared. They say that Tarkham’s guards fell into panic because of that.”

At those words the students began to murmur.

“If it’s Mount Erdien… it’s the place we went to during the entrance exam for first-year students.”

“A monster big enough to cover that mountain?”

“Is there such a monster?”

Most of the second graders last year.

I saw Mount Erdien in person.

Second graders who had seen the huge tall mountain in person could not easily believe that a monster half the size of the mountain existed.

Chloe who had been tilting her head after hearing those words suddenly looked to the side.

“Leo?”

Leo stood with his face frozen.

“Leo what’s going on?”

When Chloe asked cautiously Leo shook his head.

“It’s nothing.”

Leo smiled and answered his face relaxed.

‘A monster half the size of Mount Erdien?’

According to common sense this is impossible.

The very idea that such a huge creature exists is absurd.

But Leo knows.

Such a huge monster.

‘Gias King of Giants.’

After the era of disaster.

A corps commander who has never appeared.

A monster that is all shrouded in mystery and is now forgotten even in literature and among real people.

‘He has a cautious personality. Even if the monster queen has been subdued she is not one to make a hasty move.’

Befitting his enormous size the Giant King was a very secretive corps commander.

‘If he moved there must be a reason.’

Leo made a serious expression.

“Tarkham requested Damian to investigate in relation to this incident. And at the principal’s meeting it was suggested that we should entrust this mission to you.”

“To us?”

“okay. To be precise you suggested organizing a mixed party for each school to conduct the investigation.”

After hearing those words the Lumern students began to murmur.

“As you all know organizing parties with students from other hero academies is included in the third-year curriculum. You get the chance to experience it a year early. “The principal would have wanted that too.”

“Have other hero academies accepted it?”

“okay.”

Lumern students looked excited at Ain’s answer.

“Sounds like fun?”

“It may take a while for the Seirun kids but….”

“no way. “But it’s not like they’re all bad kids.”

“professor! “What is the party size?”

“We decided to leave that to the students’ discretion.”

Ain crossed his arms.

“It was a sudden mission exercise but the professors agreed to reflect this in the performance evaluation.”

At Ain’s words dissatisfied voices poured in from all over.

But there was no opposition or anything.

They were Lumern students who were already experienced in dealing with unexpected situations.

“What happens to Smith’s exclusive contract?”

“This mission training ends next week. Afterwards Smith’s exclusive contract will continue for the remaining week. There is nothing bad about it as it is an opportunity for Damian students to get to know us better.”

Ain looked at the second graders.

“First form a party. Since you are going to Mount Erdien it would be a good idea to organize your party carefully. It is okay to cooperate with other parties. Since this mission practice takes place in a monster-infested area combat will be essential.”

The Lumern students looked tense at Ain’s words.

Even though I had been through all the hardships for a year the fact that it was still a real battle was enough to make me nervous.

“This mission practice will be a time to mobilize everything you have learned so far. And it’s an opportunity to compete against hero candidates of the same generation as you. “I will hope for good results.”

“yep!”

“Leo what are you going to do?”

Carl asked scratching his head.

Party composition.

This was the biggest challenge for Carl.

Carl wants to be a professional supporter.

But that was a path I had no choice but to choose due to my lack of skills.

Lumern evaluated Carl’s choice positively but it was unclear how other hero officer students would view it.

Leo said in response to Carl’s question.

“Carl won’t you join a party with me this time?”

“Yes it would be nice for me.”

Carl grinned.

“So how are you going to organize the party? “Do you have any children in mind?”

Leo nodded to Carl’s question.

“huh. “I’ll collect it so you wait here.”

With those words Leo headed towards Seilun.

Students from Rumerne and Azonia Damian were actively talking to each other about forming a party.

However no one was hasty in speaking to the Seilun students.

The actions shown by the Seirun students this time made it impossible for other Hero Academy students to approach them hastily.

This mission practice brings together hero candidates from various races.

Ethnic cultural values.

Teamwork was more important than anything else as everything required different people working together.

And Seirun’s tribalistic tendencies were very likely to destroy such teamwork.

Therefore after sufficiently talking with the Lumern Azonia Damian students and forming a team they planned to carefully accept the Seilun students.

Meanwhile Leoman was the first to head to Seirun to attract Seirun students to the party.

Of course it was obvious which students Leo would invite to the party.

“Runia Eiran.”

Leo grinned at the two students standing at the front of the Seilun students.

“Would you like to party with me?”

Runia who was looking at Leo intently at Leo’s recommendation smiled and nodded.

“If it’s your request I’ll grant it.”

“Of course! “Leo!”

Eiran also smiled brightly and nodded.

Afterwards Leo went to Azonia and recruited Ar.

“Black rabbit. “I think it would be fun to plan a party with you!”

Ar also willingly joined the party.

Lastly the student Damian that Leo chose was Driana.

“I don’t want to talk to you who destroyed my artwork!”

Driana who had suddenly returned to her strange speaking style coldly rejected Leo’s offer.

It seemed like he was holding a grudge against Driana for destroying the statue earlier.

Leo said while looking at Driana.

“I’ve gathered people who can be models.”

Driana flinched at those words.

“model? “Is it pretty?”

“okay. “I will guarantee your appearance.”

“It’s tempting.”

Driana who was worried also readily accepted Leo’s offer.

I took Driana with me and went towards the party.

one side. Seeing Runia and Eiran Ar in front of him Cal looked up at the sky and lamented.

‘What else is that guy trying to do by gathering such super luxurious members?’

In fact except for himself who is a failure student there are only top honors students at the representative level of the grade.

Some students around looked at Karl with envy.

And some of them were pointing their fingers at the sword and whispering.

‘I’m sure they’ll say something about eating it raw again.’

But this time Karl felt truly unfair.

“Are you eating the knife raw again?”

Illyana who was passing by said teasingly.

“no. hey! Think about it! “Do you really think I eat raw?”

“huh. You planned a party with the class president Seilun and Azonia class representatives. “If that’s not eating it raw what is it?”

“Think about your Leo personality! Why would he gather them together!”

Carl looked like he was crying.

“It’s obvious that you’re going to do something very difficult!”

Illyana paused at Carl’s complaint.

It was definitely as Carl said.

Leo was not a man who would gather quality people simply to make things easier.

After thinking that far Illyana patted Karl’s shoulder as if feeling pitiful.

“go for it.”

“what? “Illyana will you join my party too?”

Illyana was startled by the voice coming from behind her.

And when he looked at Leo’s face with a scared face he quickly ran away.

Carl held his head.

Driana who came with Leo said while looking at the sword.

“hmm. “I don’t have the face to be a model.”

“what? you.”

“But that face of despair is a masterpiece. you. “Are you interested in becoming my model?”

“model?”

“Yes nude model.”

When a cute-looking dwarf girl suggested being a nude model in a serious tone Carl looked bewildered.

‘Now that I think about it he’s also a representative of Damian’s school year right?’

Karl turned his head and looked at Runia and Ar.

“what? “What about that unpleasant look?”

When Runia reacted slightly crookedly Karl muttered to himself.

‘A thug an idiot and a pervert. The other hero academy representatives are also not normal.’

Carl looked at Leo.

Leo smiled softly at the knife.

It was an adult smile.

Carl knew better.

When Leo smiles like that things get very difficult.

As a best friend who sat next to me for a year I was painfully aware of this.

‘It’s ruined.’

Karl smiled bitterly.
