17 – Entrance Ceremony (2)

“For such a dirty bastard to set foot in the academy, the Phrygia Academy has lost its reputation.”

A brown-haired man suddenly appeared in front of me.

After that, there were two more men.

They stood on either side of the brown-haired man, their hands in their pockets, laughing heartily and beginning to agree on the man’s words.

“That’s right. This must be an academy only for nobles, so why are non-nobles here?”

“At least, it must have been done in a dishonest way. Rumor has it that commoners also entered the school.”

Anyone can see that they are going to turn the Altyn family around.

As the brown-haired man laughed, the other two laughed as if they had promised.

The sound was so loud that the students passing by turned around.

‘that’s interesting.’

I was inwardly surprised.

The current situation was exactly the same as the scene in the game.

The heroic saga begins with the brunette and the two little girls following him screaming at Altane.

And the psychopath Altane can’t stand the insults of his family and his parents, and eventually presents his fist to these guys.

This violent incident would later become one of the events that ended his academy life.

Expulsion from the academy was like the first step for Altean to walk the path of a villain.

Altein, who had felt inferior to the main character at the academy, entered the path of a villain even more as a result of his expulsion from the academy.

As such, the beginning of the game and the entrance ceremony were important moments for me.

In other words, the event with the brown-haired gang that takes place at the same time as admission becomes a turning point that determines the future story.

“If you’re done talking, can I go now?”

Do you avoid poop because you are afraid of it? Avoid it because it’s dirty.

If they fight, it’s okay if you don’t respond. If I had to react, it would be to make the bullies do good things.

It was time to move on again to ignore them and go.

Suddenly, two little guys grabbed me by the shoulders.

“Didn’t I ever tell you to go?”

“Where are the ruins of the family?”

Guys who say lines that can only be found in games without making a single mistake.

I hit the hand on my shoulder and dropped it.

“Does such a noble aristocrat harass a student on the street?”

“You’re a student, haven’t you had your entrance ceremony yet?”

“Then it would be more of a problem. Fights between nobles should be banned in the capital. Moreover, if it is the son of that aristocrat, even more so.”

“yes. It’s between nobles. Doesn’t it have nothing to do with your ruined family?”

“Even if you fall, it doesn’t mean that all titles are formally taken away, right? Are the children these days stupid enough to have to point out these things?”

“This, this bastard—!”

“Please stop it.”

A clear voice interrupted from behind as the brown hair, caught in my provocation, raised her fist.

The identity of the person who dug between them and me was Reina.

“I don’t know what kind of fuss you’re making right now with the entrance ceremony just around the corner.”

“Ah, Princess Iceteen… .”

“Looking at the green crest, is it Count Gram from the capital? It’s the first time I’ve seen it.”

“Hey, nice to meet you! I change-”

“I didn’t intervene because I wanted to hear about your family bragging rights. It’s just that I didn’t like the way they behaved in front of the academy.”

“But that guy… .”

“Should I say it again?”

Reina’s mood changed completely.

Even though it didn’t emit mana, I felt a sense of intimidation that gave me goosebumps.

Seeing this, the brown hair held them back with a stiff expression.

“Stop it, Alt. don’t let me go back… I’m sorry, princess, I couldn’t choose the time and place.”

‘what. Was he only a count?’

The brunette and her goons bow their heads to Reina.

Since he already had followers, he thought he was a duke. He was just a typical mean-spirited aristocrat.

Even the crumpled expression he showed as he turned around at the end was a completely extra-like act.

‘But, he never apologized to me until the end.’

I had no intention of getting close, so it didn’t matter, but I lost face no matter how much I was being openly ignored in front of Reina’s eyes.

“Whoa… .”

Reina sighed as she looked at the back of the trio.

A cool breeze blew her hair, which had been tied up in an unusual way, swaying.

Even though she wore the same blue uniform, her narrow waist and beautiful legs were not hidden.

Reina looked in the direction of the academy for a moment, then turned around and came closer to me.

“Don’t get me wrong.”

“…?”

Reina still had an expression as cold as ice.

In that atmosphere, it feels like the surroundings have become cold for a moment.

by the way… I didn’t expect Reina to appear here.

In the original, they would only meet again in the middle.

Was it twisted because I spent time here?

“Can’t you hear me?”

“… I had something to think about.”

“Think, I mean.”

Reina’s eyebrows curled.

This is what you say when you don’t like something.

I hit the head quickly before Reina’s mouth opened.

“Anyway, thank you for your help. I was just getting tired of it.”

“That’s why, I’m telling you not to get me wrong. I just didn’t want to see you make a fuss from the entrance ceremony.”

“Yes. So I just listened.”

“It wouldn’t have suited your personality to just listen to family swearing, right?”

Where the hell did you see this guy?

“It’s better than causing a commotion from the entrance ceremony. After all, half of it is true.”

“… .”

The approach was wrong, but not exactly wrong.

It’s a miracle that the current Altane family maintains the countship.

Rather, it is strange that it is not ignored.

In addition, if you didn’t put up with it just now, you just follow the flow of the original.

For me, patience was the best option.

Reina sighed, dissatisfied with my words.

Perhaps because the original version was so pretty, her beauty shined even when she frowned.

Even though the engagement was broken, unlike me, he must have received countless letters of courtship.

Maybe Jed is there too.

“You wouldn’t have been like that before. He must have been touched for insulting the authority of a nobleman.”

“But I didn’t.”

“… I don’t know what the wind is blowing these days, but people don’t change easily. That won’t change the way people look at you.”

“Are you like that too?”

“… It sounds obvious.”

As if it never happened, she returned to her usual Reina.

Biting her lip, she glared at me ferociously, then immediately turned her back and headed for the academy.

I feel like I’m more rough than last time.

When I saw that he helped me like this, I wondered if my own efforts had worked, but when I looked at what he said, it seemed like it wasn’t.

I really can’t understand.

“What. It’s Altean.”

As I was about to take my step, Jed came next to me with his characteristic rotten smile.

Jed, who has a cool style with light brown hair swept up, has a cool look and cuteness, just like the son of a duke.

Jed murmured as he watched the brown hair go away.

“A lot of people have died in the Altair family. To the point of being ignored by such kids.”

“Were you watching?”

“I didn’t intend to see it, but the princess was watching it.”

“Raina? Oh, come to think of it, I didn’t hear about it back then.”

“at that time?”

“You arranged a meeting with Reina, didn’t you?”

Have you forgotten who helped you get to know Reina?

It was only a few days ago that Mene made a place in exchange for food and manpower support.

Did he really forget? Jed said, “Ah.” With a voice, he laughed.

His laugh was closer to resignation than joy.

“right. It was.”

“Well? What’s wrong?”

“They told me not to take it as something I’ve only met once or twice.”

“what?”

‘What are you talking about again?’

There was no way that the successor of Theseus, a renowned family in the empire, would fail.

Even in the game, the relationship between the two wasn’t that bad.

Although Jed stuck a little.

Duke Leonard was rather welcoming.

Even though Jed had an arrogant and arrogant personality, he was a person close to a so-called tsundere who took good care of those around him.

If he didn’t have that kind of personality, he would have been expelled from the main character’s party right away.

Of course, I didn’t put it to parties often. Even though his performance was fine, he was a male character.

I only used it when it was important, like a boss.

Even if he looks promiscuous, he must always be a sunflower-like attitude toward Reina.

Did Reina not get upset with that?

“Look at it, you must be wrong.”

“at all. I haven’t looked away for a second since I saw Gongnyeo. Well, I have no intention of giving up on her just because I heard that.”

“I guess so.”

“At the banquet hosted by the Eisteen family not too long ago, I couldn’t find anyone who could surpass me. I felt it there. In the end, there is only me. If you keep bumping into this heart, she will know.”

“Don’t overdo it.”

“Heh. I know that.”

Jed’s stalking episode in the hero saga was very famous.

A legendary episode that everyone hates and swears at regardless of the gender they play.

I hope it doesn’t happen here.

“Is that it?”

I entered the academy right away after having a small talk with Jed.

The place where the entrance ceremony was held was the newly built gymnasium within the academy.

The gymnasium was huge enough to match the academy’s main building.

Various equipment was installed here and there, and there were spectator seats where you could sit and look down.

It was like the structure of an ancient Colosseum.

“Amazing.”

This word fit just right.

The gymnasium was bigger and grander than it looked from the outside.

“Are they all just kids?”

Jed murmured, looking around.

“All, but not all.”

I denied Jed’s words while looking toward the entrance.

After we arrived at the gymnasium, students were entering one after another.

They were the ones I saw in the game together.

Among them, there was a man who caught my attention.

A man with shaggy dark blond hair, looking around the gym with strange eyes.

“… Siegfried.”

Siegfried Jean haircut.

The main character of Hero Saga and a character I played in my previous life.

And the person who will kill me later.

At this point, in the early stages of the game, Siegfried’s skills weren’t that great.

However, as a protagonist, he quickly took the top spot in the academy based on his fraudulent talents and talents, so I could see him as my number one target to be wary of right now.

‘This is the beginning.’

The game has now begun.
