“… ….”

In a quiet classroom.

I had a book in my hand, and the location was a school table.

I was in the 2nd grade classroom now as the self-study supervisor.

It’s nice to be quiet after a long time.

These days, while riding only helicopters, I heard only the sound of the rotors spinning, so it was almost like a scab sits on my ear.

In the past, I was able to understand anew why the default was to attach all intermediate wind spirits to noise control.

Restrictions were placed on the general weapons so that they could not change the position of the spirit at will.

In severe cases, it could fall or stop.

So, it was common for general weapons made by copying holy relics to put a manastone storage box where the spirit could stay in the place the spirit was in charge of.

Just like in the past when I first rode a tank, there was an intermediate fire spirit on the engine side.

I closed the book of Ordnance Structural Studies that I was reading.

The 2nd graders are self-studying right in front of them.

Everyone was studying, joking around, chatting and chatting.

Surprised students bow their heads and pretend to study when they deliberately put books down on the table to make a sound.

The rude guys.

It was a week before the midterm exam, so self-study time was given to subjects that had already completed their progress.

I also brought a book from a class I didn’t listen to very often during the 3rd grade class and looked at it from time to time.

It’s still Wednesday, but I’ve already finished my studies.

I’m afraid, my brilliant brain.

The senior grade level was obviously unreasonable, and overall, the written test scores were moderately high, but even at this level, they were doing well.

Until last year, I couldn’t even speak Korean properly.

I’m not proud of it.

In addition, if you add practical skills and additional points, the final grade will be played at the top rank, so it is possible to have an efficient school life with fewer classes and high grades.

Thanks to that, I often had work to do in my spare time.

One day when the midterm exams for the first semester are in full swing.

After a long time, I stopped by the principal after being called by Curst.

“Another operation?”

“Yes. I know the exam is over. A request for assistance came from Canael.”

If it was Canael, I couldn’t not go.

When I looked at the documents Curst had presented, the situation didn’t seem very good.

The route was too long for Arumanan and its subordinate wing to cover all the territories, floating islands, and islands of Ars.

Especially, Jafir, a large city on the continent of Ireland, was a key point for demons to aim for.

“Arumanan sent an official letter directly. During the last imperial civil war, Arumanan checked the demons that appeared in Kanbal and Selmeier, so this time, I ask you to protect Zafir.”

There was nothing to think about for a long time.

I was going to go even if the country told me not to go.

“I will go. Few?”

“There are no clear signs yet. But some movement was detected in Kanbal.”

Kurst held out the other papers on the desk.

It was sent by an agent in Kanbal.

Like the last time the second prince of the Eitian Empire made contact with the demons, it is said that a situation in which a high-ranking official in Kanbal came into contact with the demons was captured.

The problem is that it is not a coup d’état or rebellion using demons, but the fact that the upper heads of Kanbal are in the same vein with the demons.

“What the hell does Kanbal believe in colluding with demons… ….”

Kirst shrugged his shoulders and took off his sunglasses.

“Because that country was that way from the beginning. It is a country established by colluding with demons, so the historical families are said to be of mixed race as well.”

“Ah, they were descendants of those guys.”

During the Shinma War, there were not a few humans who served the demons and cooperated with the demons.

In the Easel Continent, there was a country created by such people, but I had seen in textbooks that the continent was destroyed and the Kanbal Kingdom was created by those guys.

More than 200 years have passed, but it seems that the habit has gone somewhere.

“Please grant me special attendance. I don’t know when the deadline will be, but if you think you won’t be able to make it by the final exam, please contact me.”

In line with the current world situation, a ‘special attendance recognition system’ has been introduced, and I will be the first user.

Literally, as in this case, it was a system that recognized attendance when a student went out for an operation.

If demons invade our country, attendance will not be an issue, but if you kneel after the war is over, it’s unfair.

Formally, it was to replace the jobs of cadets, apprentices, and trainees as much as they rolled on the battlefield after the first graduation.

When I asked for attendance to be processed for all the operations I’ve been working on for the past two years, they said that it was not accepted because there was no system at that time.

It’s disrespectful.

I wonder where it will be recognized now.

“Rager. Can I go by helicopter?”

“Yes. Have a good trip.”

I saluted Kirst and left the principal’s office.

Is it a solo operation after a long time?

Strictly speaking, if you go to Zafir, there will be people on the Canael side, so you must work with them to protect Zafir.

After finishing preparations in the dormitory, I knocked on the door of the next room.

“Erif? What’s the matter?”

Chermia was wiping her bangs up and tying it up over her forehead. She

She must have been studying.

“I’m going to run and come.”

“… Bye.”

“Yes. It might take a while, so don’t fight Shane and get along.”

“He talks like he will never see him again. Hurry up and go.”

Chermia grabbed my shoulder and turned it in the opposite direction, and she patted my back.

Gently rubbing her back, I greeted Cher Mia and her eyes, then returned to my room.

I felt a little strange.

Czermia As she said, she shook her head, feeling the strange feeling that she would never see her friends again.

Is the fortress weak?

When I go to Zafir, I have to find and eat healthy seafood dishes.

You don’t need to bring a lot of clothes.

Zafir is a big city, so you can get most of the things you need with just one shopping.

I brought a pendant.

I took the Zafir brochure.

I brought a card and some cash.

I also brought a spare manastone.

Okay. Ready.

There may still be places to take the test, so I’ll have to quietly launch the helicopter.

“[[Elemental Enhancement]]”

The pendant is colored silver and vibrates slightly.

After summoning the main body to the corner of the playground furthest from the classroom building, all intermediate wind spirits were turned to noise control.

The main rotor started turning when the engine was started. She

She opened the window, but she heard nothing but a slight breeze.

If this is enough, even if she just walks around at night, she will only get a reaction like ‘The wind is making a lot of noise today.’

She’ll remember it and use it later.

As soon as the helicopter was launched, the school was immediately underfoot.

Since the downtown area is a no-fly zone for helicopters, it has fallen to the northern outskirts of the school.

The wide plain was full of paddy fields.

Selmeier has a good climate and fertile soil, so it is said that farming is good.

Based on abundant resources, it belonged to a powerhouse that exerts considerable influence on the continent of Ireland, but it is said that the country suffered great damage from a war that began about 20 years ago with a surprise attack by the Kanbals in the southeast.

That’s the Ten Years’ War in which Armion and Curst participated.

Like the last time they stole the Demon’s Token in a surprise attack, and this time to protect Zafir, Kanbal was a country where many people would bump into each other.

As the demons jumped out into the material world, they may have taken the next step.

It was difficult to grasp the size and strength of the demons in the northern Easel continent, so they were gathering information for now.

The situation on the continent of Pavis has just begun to stabilize, and since the civil war between Ireland and the Empire, which is the largest and closest to Easel, has just ended, we could not attack blindly.

It took a long time to build a warship based on the information received from Bartiers.

I’m really bored because I’m flying alone.

It wasn’t like that in the past, but humans are adaptive animals, so I was a bit lonely because I was traveling in a squadron all the time and running a solo operation.

It took more than half a day by helicopter to get to Zafir.

I left quite late in the afternoon, so I had to take a break in the middle or arrive late at night.

If I had known this would be the case, I would have taken the train with more time.

I regretted running out without a plan because Arumanan was looking for me.

Is there a place where I can rest in moderation?

[[There are two cities nearby]]

“Which city is bigger?”

[[If you go to the left, you will see a large river, and if you follow it, you will find a fairly large city. The other is a small town near the mountain on the right.]]

“Well, then it’s a big deal… No, let’s go somewhere small.”

My mind was focused on a quiet place.

I’ll have to look around and see if it’s a good place to build a house later.

[[[There is also a place that provides lodging for soldiers, so you can visit there.]]

“Oh, thank you.”

It has the effect of teaching the spirits domestic maps and travel books.

The helicopter landed on a suitable outskirts and entered the city.

There were several checkpoints at the entrance of the city, so the traffic in and out of the city was blocked.

During the last imperial civil war, demons pretending to be human appeared on the news, and the security seemed to have increased.

“Stop. Stop.”

The guards ran out from afar.

A girl in a pilot suit walks in from outside the city with a bag at dusk.

No matter how you look at it, it will win.

“Do you have an ID or student ID?”

The guard’s attitude softened when he saw my face.

If I were a demon in disguise, what would I do to break the boundaries?

I took my ID card out of my pocket.

An identification card with a gold frame on the outside that any nobleman has, regardless of his or her age.

The guard swallowed dry saliva, looked at his ID, and was startled and let him into the city.

“Is there any military accommodation near here?”

“Oh, yes! Right over there!”

“Thank you.”

There was a military dormitory near the entrance.

It’s usually very close to what the guards use.

The building looked like it had just been built.

I took a quick look around to see if there was anywhere to eat dinner, and then went into the dormitory, but I felt a strange sense of incongruity.

“Are you one?”

Show your military academy student ID at the entrance.

“Yes.”

After checking into the dormitory and looking for the identity of the sense of incongruity, I came across an old door that did not suit the newly built building.

Just in time, I grabbed a janitor who was passing by and asked.

“The building is new, but only this door is old.”

“Yes. This is the original basement. We didn’t even need to build a new basement, so we left it as it is.”

“Well.”

The sense of incongruity that stimulated my spirit sense was flowing out of this basement.

I think we should take a look.

“Can I come in here?”

“It’s just a warehouse.”

When I silently pulled out my gilded ID card, the manager opened the door right away.

“Ugh.”

A bizarre sense of incongruity turned into a blatant warning.

There is something under this.

Even the caretaker felt strange, and the sound of swallowing air was heard.

“If you don’t know, please call someone. Please contact 2nd Corps Commander Kirst under the name of Erif Cruel.”

“I see.”

The manager ran somewhere.

What’s under this, I must go before anyone else gets involved.

I had such a strong feeling.

In the warehouse, there were piles of various items.

I was able to recognize the objects that stimulate my senses at a glance in the gap.

Slightly large and sinister round metal object resembling the mark of a demon.

Sureung

In case you didn’t know, I even unified it and then pulled out my sword.

And put his hand on the object,

“… ….”

Nothing happened.

The ominous feeling is the same, but unlike the Demon’s Token, it doesn’t seem to be activated by contact.

Then I’ll have to isolate it somewhere else.

“Are you okay?”

Just as the caretaker and some soldiers entered the basement, the unity was broken.

“Yes. But there are things like this.”

When I saw the token, everyone looked startled and then backed away little by little.

“Please contact the nearest county. Until then, I, uh, now what…… ?”

Suddenly, a soldier standing next to me grabbed my arm.

I tried to shake my arm out of embarrassment, but it was not easily released because it was not caught lightly, but hung with all my might.

“Why is this person like this?”

Turuk

I realized it only after I grabbed the arm on the other side.

These were something strange.

Juruk

Blood began to flow from the soldiers’ necks.

It was almost impossible to see that he was alive because his neck had been cut in half.

Likewise, the caretaker, who was bleeding from his neck, walked right in front of him.

He took the token from my hand and held it to the front.

His eyes were blurry and out of focus.

“[[All- Kup!”

Just before creating the armor by unification, a slender arm protruded from the token.

Then, a sharp dagger pierced my chest.

“Huh.”

The hot blade of a knife pierced my lungs as if it had been heated with fire, and I couldn’t breathe.

I tried to push the arm that was holding the dagger, but there was no strength in my hand.

Evil poison spread and I couldn’t control my body, so I fell to the floor, and my eyes gradually closed.

“An unexpected thing happened.”

With the faint voice of a young girl, I lost my mind.
