147. rising expectations

clap.

After a short conversation with Han Chun-seong, Medelpen soon left the training ground.

Originally, the purpose of visiting the C-class training center was to meet Han Chun-seong.

Medelpen also did not try to emphasize the support of officers or make strong opinions while dealing with nature.

From the moment he said it for the first time, he too felt it based on his many years of experience. It was because there was something about how the cadet felt his words.

When Han Chun-seong felt that my words were not to be desired, he also did not feel the emotion to invest a long time.

He had fulfilled his formal duties, and even if he forced the cadet more, it would be similar to persuading the monsters pouring down from the front line with words.

that buck

Even as he left the training ground, Medelpen’s smile leaked out.

“That said, to say you saw four layers of blue wavelengths… .”

Originally, the wavelength test was based on fresh cadets, and if you saw three folds, you could say that the level was high.

There are buds of talent. Even more so, seeing four wavelengths meant that the cadet’s talent was on a very different level from that of other cadets.

“Although the biggest flaw is that the trait is common. It’s a name worth remembering.”

Medelpen, muttering to himself, walked around the academy.

After passing through the vast maze-like interior of the academy, he was able to arrive in front of an office.

smart.

How many seconds did he knock on the office and wait?

clap.

Soon the door opened and he was able to face a woman.

“Come on. Captain Medelpen. It’s been quite a while.”

“Yes. Meet Lieutenant Colonel Carly. No, since it is within the academy, I should say Instructor Cali.”

When Medelpen smiled lightly and changed the title according to the rules, Carly smiled and slowly guided him inside.

Inside the office, one person had already arrived.

“…Major Anastasia has arrived in advance.”

“Because I had to speak with Lieutenant Colonel Carly beforehand. Rather, Captain Medelpen, you are later than expected.”

As she put down the teacup and glanced at it, Medelpen smiled awkwardly and joined the table.

“There was a cadet I had to meet inevitably.”

This place was like the biggest promise of the day.

To meet ‘Kali’ who was in charge of one axis of the Eastern Front.

Seruk.

Even Medelfen cautiously sat down next to Anastasia, and Kali calmly sat across from them.

“Major Anastasia. We decided not to call them ranks within the academy. You just have to treat him as an instructor like any other instructor.”

When Carly spoke softly, she shook her head resolutely.

“How dare you? Lieutenant Colonel Carly is a special person.”

As she politely tried to keep her manners, Carly couldn’t help but shook her head.

“It really hasn’t changed at all compared to a year ago.”

Discipline according to rank within the military was so firmly established.

However, in ‘the academy’, everyone changed their title.

Only officers who stood on the front line in the past could take the position of instructor within the academy, so they treat their superiors in the past, but they do not call them higher by attaching a separate rank. It was to show that the position of ‘instructor’ itself had authority.

However, when he was an officer, there were some who stuck to the title.

Just like Anastasia now. This was especially true of officers who had served on the same front.

good.

There was a moment of silence as Carly’s assistant came over and set Captain Medelpen’s teacup down.

On the way, Kali looked at Anastasia as if she were curious.

‘It’s really like an officer’s model.’

It’s absolutely correct, but not overly arrogant.

The thoroughness of the relationship between the superiors and subordinates also made her a desirable officer when looking at the distraught officer.

So, this situation felt a little bit funny.

After breaking up after standing on the same front, I heard a lot about the performance of the past year, even though they were on different fronts.

The news of killing the ridiculous apostle made Carly wonder a little that she hadn’t been promoted further.

‘If you look only at the performance on the front line… .’

It could be said that Anastasia was an officer who performed even higher than himself. However, since she was a commoner, there was a limit no matter how unconventional she was promoted.

On the other hand, there were no limits to her, who came from a family called Ishtar. So this reality that the position has no choice but to be higher… .

Carly, who thought that was funny inside, slowly opened her mouth.

“First of all, I wanted to meet the two of them like this because I wanted to hear their opinions about the current situation on the front. How things are going on the front.”

It’s only been a few months since she left the frontline and joined the academy, but Carly was already curious about the frontline.

How are the wires running now? .

“…”

Anastasia, who recalled the wire, chose her thoughts for a moment, and Medelpen, who checked Anastasia, smiled bitterly.

“Major. Then may I answer?”

When he spoke first, Anastasia nodded calmly.

Afterwards, Medelpen began to speak calmly.

“First, Instructor Carly. As you know, the situation at the front is not very good. You could say it doesn’t get any better with time. The number of officers and soldiers on the front line is decreasing day by day, and the number of monsters pouring in has not decreased at all. Speaking of the frequency of the appearance of apostles, it can be said that it has increased slightly.”

“…is it.”

When Carly answered the question with a hint that it was, Medelpen nodded.

“Yes. In fact, I could say that every day was a tough day. The purpose of my visit to the academy is to further inspire the cadets’ will to apply for officers… . To be honest, I don’t know if I can handle this much. There are even rumors in the military about whether the number of academy screenings should be increased or the need for compulsory conscription, not just officer support.”

As Medelpen spoke without hesitation, as if she had thought about the wires, Kali let out a light sigh.

“Is the situation on the front lines so bad that it can’t be said to be good… But I think that forced conscription is skeptical, but are those in higher ranks already thinking about that kind of rainfall?”

“…I also listened in silence. I can’t be sure yet.”

When Medelpen tried to hold back his words, Carly didn’t ask anymore.

In terms of rank alone, Medelpen could be said to be in the lowest rank of the three men here. However, the ‘Gracia’ family to which he belonged could never be ignored, apart from that class.

ㅡMedelpen Gracia.

Originally, he could have served in the military with a higher rank if he wished. He was an outstanding talent from a family of historical marquises. However, as he had wished for himself, he was starting with a relatively low rank, captain.

Even the information he passed on had to be seen as something more than, in fact, class.

“Then I won’t ask you more about the wire. It’s not like I can go back to the front right now… I can’t do anything at the academy.”

When Carly stopped talking as if it was enough, Medelpen nodded calmly.

Then Carly’s eyes suddenly went to Anastasia.

“Something surprising about Anastasia. Didn’t you try to stay on the front line even though I told you to take a break from the upper line?”

As she spoke softly, as if to ease the heavy atmosphere, Anastasia smiled lightly.

“I also had some thoughts of taking a break in the meantime.”

“So you’re saying you’re ready to rest now?”

“Yes. I… miss my family.”

When Anastasia answered honestly, Carly gave a small smile as if surprised by her honesty.

“I heard the news too. Cadet Glesia was a family.”

“You could say he is my only blood relative.”

“yes? Then there are really strange coincidences. I was the supervisor who tested the Glesia cadets in the entrance exam.”

“Did you take good care of Glesia?”

As Anastasia’s eyes met with sparkling eyes, Carly shook her head.

“I didn’t see anything good for me. Because the value of oneself is proved by the cadet himself. The other overseers gave high praise to the Glesia cadets.”

“…okay.”

When Carly turned to Glesia and praised her, Anastasia smiled with a little satisfaction.

“At the time of the entrance exam, it was really rare to see a cadet who took a level 3 attribute, but even more so, I was surprised that a unique class cadet had achieved level 3. ”

As Anastasia licked her lips in embarrassment at the repeated praises of Glesia, Medelpen, who was by her side, looked at Anastasia as if she were curious.

When Carly stopped talking in the warm atmosphere, Medelfen suddenly opened her mouth.

“Come to think of it… Is Instructor Carly’s class in charge of C1 class?”

“right. Why is that all of a sudden?”

“I remembered that the cadet I just checked was none other than Instructor Carly’s cadet. He was a very gifted cadet.”

Medelfen opened her mouth in a bright tone, and Carly gave her a curious look.

As she wondered who she was talking about, Medelpen smiled brightly.

“The name was Cadet Han Chun-seong. He was a cadet who is often mentioned in the academy these days, so I met him in person, but he was definitely amazing.”

Medelpen spoke on a light topic.

““…!””

Coincidentally, along with Kali, Anastasia looked at him as if surprised.

“…Cadet Han Chun-seong?”

“Captain Medelpen. Did you meet Cadet Han Chun-seong?”

As the voices of the two women overlapped for a moment, Medelpen paused and nodded.

“Yes, but. Does Major Anastasia know about the Cadet Han Chunseong?”

When Medelfen said something curious, Anastasia nodded awkwardly.

“I am a cadet who happened to spend time with Glesia yesterday. I got to know you because you were Glesia’s friend.”

“…that’s quite surprising.”

Even Carly looked at Anastasia in amazement.

“I spent time with Cadet Han Chun-seong… ?”

“After meeting him briefly yesterday, I got the impression that he is an upright cadet, which is rare.”

When Anastasia gave a brief impression of Han Chun-seong, Carly nodded awkwardly.

“A pretty good cadet for sure. Talent and attitude.”

As she carefully defended him, Medelfen also helped.

“There’s no way there’s a cadet with that kind of talent in Class C. I was very surprised when I saw it.”

“…yes?”

Carly smiled contentedly and went one step further.

“In fact, he is also the cadet I care about the most, and I see him as a cadet who will develop greatly in the future.”

When he openly expressed his anticipation for Han Chun-seong, Medelpen looked at him as if he was a cadet with such expectations, but it was a little different for Anastasia.

She made an appointment to meet Han Chun-seong tomorrow.

…As she tried to learn more about Han Chun-seong, she felt her expectations rise.

‘If that’s enough for Colonel Carly to say this much.’

Not just Glesia’s friend.

I felt that I was a cadet worth looking at a little more properly.
