Except for killing one wolf monster, we returned from patrol without incident. Everyone was waiting for us, anxious to see if something had happened.

“There was a monster on the way, so I got rid of it.”

In front of them, Yujin put down the wolf monster he was wearing with a thud. Everyone was startled by the sudden appearance of the monster.

“Is this a monster? It was the first time I saw the real thing.”

“Da, are you hurt anywhere? It looks pretty strong… … .”

“No big deal. I killed it in one shot with a gun.”

In response to the embarrassment and respect, I treated it calmly as if it were nothing. Actually, I feel pretty good, but I suppressed my smile because I might look lighthearted if I was conceited.

“By the way, since it’s been corrupted by twisted magic, you won’t be able to eat meat, but it looks good for fur. Is there anyone who can?”

When I asked, the students started to notice each other.

“Mo, if it’s the job of getting fur, I’ll do it.”

Just when I wondered if there was anyone who could do it, Mi-ryung raised her hand and said.

“As expected, hunting is the main occupation. request.”

“Oh, no. All I have is this level of talent… … . Excuse me.”

It was similar to Kachusarang, but it was a different attitude. Even when Katyusha said such a thing, she secretly said it shamelessly and confidently, but Mi-ryung really felt sorry for her.

Kneeling in front of the wolf monster’s corpse, Mi-ryung took a knife out of her pocket and skilfully cut it. And with a bang, he peeled off the fur with force.

“You have good strength.”

Occasionally blood splattered on his face, but he didn’t care at all and quietly continued to dismantle it, which looked creepy. Some students were afraid.

‘Well, it would be better to have such a scary image than to look easygoing.’

“Whoa… … . ha. After, there is still quite a bit of post-processing left, but the separation is finished.”

Mi-ryung, who finished the dismantling work in front of everyone, held up the wolf monster’s fur and said. The heavy dark blue hair shimmered softly in the moonlight. I didn’t know when I brought it, but it was pretty good.

“It must have been a tough job, but you did a good job. I will reward you later.”

“ah. Alas, no. Without this kind of work, I’m useless… … .”

The low-key is also very low-key. When I talked to Eugene in the original work, I think I communicated more normally. Maybe because I’m the crown prince, I’m more withdrawn.

“Did you do something no one else could do? Be a little more proud, Mi-ryeong.”

“Dee, Dimitri! I can smell the blood! Well, I’m fine because I smell like a beast, but Dimitri smells good, so don’t come near me!”

“No, it doesn’t smell good, does it?”

… … Well, Dimitri will take care of it. I decided not to care. a bit annoying

The patrol was over, and it was time to close my eyes. Fortunately, the night watch didn’t come to our group.

‘Perhaps it was arranged so that he wouldn’t come back to me from the beginning.’

Judging from the unnatural correction marks on the shift schedule, it was clear that I, the crown prince, had adjusted it so that I would not wake up. I wondered if this was okay, but I decided to suck the honey that I could suck.

“In the end, I couldn’t meet the remnants.”

Fromm said, placing freshly brewed tea on the table.

“If you think about it simply, you must be wary of this side. Otherwise… … .”

I answered and took a sip of the tea that Fromm brewed. It was a herbal tea with a mild scent different from the usual black tea or coffee.

“All of them were eaten by witches. The tea is delicious.”

“Wow. That’s scary. The part about being eaten.”

From noble mtl dot com

“Do you have any reason to be afraid that tea is delicious?”

He smiled and replied to Fromm, who exaggeratedly embraced his body as if it were creepy.

“Even if it wasn’t a witch, she might have been killed by a monster like the one we met today.”

Proud added, sitting next to me. I nodded in agreement.

The remnants of Saratov in the original work were armed with only a few firearms, but they were never trained in combat.

Considering that the number was smaller than expected, the actual number of monsters must have been small.

“We may meet tomorrow during the day, so prepare your mind.”

“I’m nervous… … . Um, what about Eugene?”

Fromm spoke to Eugene, who was just sitting quietly. Seeing him talk to him even though he was ignored like that before, he is a really nice person.

“… … I am nervous.”

Eugene, who was silent, gave a brief reply when I glared at him.

“Tell me in advance. Don’t overdo it.”

“All right.”

As I was watching, I became anxious and said a word.

‘I’m not a guardian of any kind… … .’

This debt was determined to be paid off later.

The next day, a full-scale search began. It spread at regular intervals and climbed the mountain.

“Be careful not to get ahead of yourself and be vigilant. Report anything you find.”

Proud said to the communication seat (I don’t know how it works, but it was roughly like a walkie-talkie). The answer came back from everywhere. The level was higher than I thought.

“Tension, tension… … . Are there any traps or something?”

Fromm murmured in a low voice. It was a legitimate concern, but there was nothing like that in the original work.

“The opponent is just a remnant. Could there be such a thing… … .”

“aaa!!!”

Just as he was about to say no, a sharp scream was heard from the group on the left.

“What! what’s the matter!”

cried Proud. One of the students was lying down with an arrow stuck in his shoulder.

“Poem, my leg got caught in something like thread, and the arrow… … ! ugh… … !!”

It was a trap. I was careless because I did not feel the presence of people. A commotion began to spread among the students at the sudden occurrence of injured people.

“Ji, calm down! I’ll treat you right away!”

Fromm prepared his magic and ran to the student hit by the arrow.

At the same time, I felt a gaze from afar.

There was a clear intent to kill in that gaze.

“… … From! Bow down!”

I instantaneously boosted my senses to the second level and rushed in front of Fromm. and wielded a knife

Caang!

The blade deflected the bullets flying at Fromm.

“What, what?! What just happened, no, than treat… … !!”

Fromm was flustered and came to his senses and started treating the injured.

“These children… … .”

If I had been even a little late, Fromm might have died too.

Make wounded and attack the person who came to rescue him. It is efficient but inhuman, and the worst tactic that can never be forgiven.

“You were trying to do something rude about attacking the medic, right?”

As if he had already moved his position, he could not feel his gaze from where the bullet had come from. But the intent to kill was still felt.

This forest was full of murderous intent.

‘Wasn’t Eugene the only one whose condition got weird?’

We maintained a certain distance and were wary of our surroundings. From the back was desperately performing healing magic.

“How many people do you think there are?”

“I think it’s two or three. I do not know the exact location.”

“Tell Caspal to prepare the fog at any time.”

Proud relayed my order to the communications table. If things went badly, they covered the surroundings with fog and prepared to retreat.

“Three, three!”

An urgent female voice came from the communication seat. It was a beauty.

“Ph, based on Mr. Proud, there is one in the north and two in the west! The western one is in the trees!”

“Is it a beauty?! How did you find out?”

I shouted into the communications seat.

“Sue, with the magic of the forest… … . It’s a bit unsettling because it’s twisted, but the location is certain.”

Beasts have a high affinity with the forest, so it was possible to synchronize with the magic of the forest. However, the magic of this forest is twisted. It must have been a huge burden.

“Thank you, Mi-ryeong. Take it easy!”

We were wary of the direction Mi-ryung said, and prepared to intercept the attack right there.

“… … How about burning them all down?”

“Arthur. The tree of twisted magical power is not even used as firewood. Because poison comes out.”

He replied to Proud, who asked with a very angry expression, while shedding a spark. Proud withdrew the flame as if indignant.

How did they prepare to respond and how long did they confront each other? The enemy’s signs disappeared. It was a retreat.

“… … It’s different from the story.”

A student muttered in a dejected voice. Everyone silently agreed to that.

“okay. It is completely different from the story.”

I let out a deep sigh. Reality was hard mode.

We stopped searching and returned to base. The students, who were full of energy even when they started during the day, seemed to have lost their morale due to the shock from a while ago.

“As you may have seen, the remnants had a much stronger and systematic movement than expected.”

After ordering Proud to line them up, I stood in front of the students.

“They are not mere rebel remnants. there’s someone behind It is a situation where the forces behind it are suspicious.”

A great commotion arose among the students at the word behind the scenes.

“Maybe they’re targeting me, the crown prince.”

A greater commotion ensued.

“Bae, what kind of people are behind the scenes?”

“Okay. Is there one or two people who want to kill me? There must be quite a few among the students of the Knights Academy.”

To the student who asked in a trembling voice, I answered with a shrug. And I turned my gaze to Eugene.

Yujin was thinking hard about something with a serious expression on her face.

“What do you think of Eugene?”

When I called Eugene, the eyes of the people around me focused on Yujin. Eugene raised his head a little later than the reaction of the people around him and looked at me.

“I don’t mean to bother you too much. I want to hear your opinion as a person who lived in Saratov.”

“… … Then, it may be uncomfortable to hear, but is it okay if I say it?”

half words, half words The students around him were agitated in a strange part. I wonder if it would be better to respect it even if it’s annoying to buy a surprise around me at this point.

“I think everyone has heard that the Saratov rebellion was planned.”

Eugene stood up and got lucky.

“Say a word for a moment.”

Proud cut off his words while busy doing so.

“The military was just preparing for the possibility of an insurrection.”

The knight academy is, first of all, affiliated with the military. Proud, the student council president, must be in a position where he cannot ignore the bad news about the military.

Aside from that, I also agreed with Proud’s words. In other words, it is the same as waiting for a rebellion to happen, and it is true.

“I don’t think the military rebelled. Please listen to me for now.”

Eugene responded calmly to Proud’s objection. To Proud, why are you saying honorifics? The reason why no one is arguing about it must be because of the strange sense of intimidation that Eugene exudes.

“… … The day, the night of the rebellion.”

Everyone focused on Eugene’s story. I did too.

“There was a man.”

A very ominous sentence came out of Eugene’s mouth.

“A very strong man wearing a hood.”

I had a hunch that the story was going to be incredibly twisted.
