Chapter 26
The cavalry is a notorious custom.
Why is it so infamous?
It’s simple because irrationality is a distant custom…
At first it was a title given to disciples taken by Free Knights but in this day and age who would become a disciple of a Free Knight?
They are criminals who speak freely and are no better than scoundrels.
However the ignorant boys in the rural village who do not know this are bound to be deceived by the free knight’s words that he will make them his disciples.
That’s how the life of mere word slave begins…
Of course cleaning laundry and cooking…
You have to earn money for the knight’s entertainment and sometimes you have to take out private loans to maintain your dignity.
In the name of none other than Knight Jong…
As a result most of those who become servants are debtors.
Of course most people run away before becoming debtors but there are also those who cannot.
Even though he is a free knight he is still a knight and as much as he is a scoundrel he has no hesitation in killing people…
Therefore the free knight system was abolished.
Because there are no wicked people like this…
However strangely the cavalry system has not yet been abolished.
The nobles say that the Free Knights did something wrong but knights from other prestigious families don’t do the same?
···That was bullshit·
The knights of the prestigious family I saw and the knights they led were worse than servants…
Yes how many times have I seen people being treated like slaves?
Therefore if there was an ignorant lamb who wanted to become a bell knight he was willing to teach it.
‘It’s not what you think’ –
But…
‘What does it mean for a guy who knows everything to become a knight?’
I went crazy once…
Number 2: He is a pervert who enjoys pain and suffering.
3 or both
···Umm it’s difficult·
It’s a difficult problem…
So…
“···Where should I hit you?”
“Yes?”
“Where should I hit you to get better? Think seriously and tell me. I think I broke it so I’ll be happy to fix it.”
“····”
Tap tap tap…
Lee Han loosened his fists and prepared to hit the guy in the back or the front of the head.
If the problem is that you hit him with a lectern the day before you can hit him differently.
Since I threw it with a curveball when I threw it should I throw it with a slider this time?
Although it’s a bad relationship this guy is also a member of the swordsmanship department…
Even though he may only be an instructor doesn’t he have a duty to keep the cadets sane?
‘If it doesn’t work out…’
As Lee Han was scanning the surroundings looking for a suitable Jjangdol the guy who was still on his knees…
“That’s not it Kyung-ah I think there’s a misunderstanding but I’m not crazy!”
“I’m not crazy but you’re saying this? “Then isn’t it more of a problem?”
“That…”
Damian was speechless wondering if it was true that even if he thought about it it was a lame excuse…
And then…
“I think I made a mistake with my words…”
He was in a hurry and said he would become a servant without even explaining the circumstances so he had nothing to say even if he was treated like this.
Humbly acknowledging this Damian added additional explanation…
“Father no the head of the family has commanded me to assist Sir Lee Han.”
“···?”
···why?
Lee Han tilted his head expressing a question with his eyes.
···I heard a lot of stories·
From the story that the earl changed overnight to the story that the knights who raised their voices against the earl and the earl’s eldest son live on thin ice…
In addition it is said that the elders are directly stepping up to strengthen the discipline of the family.
The story goes that the youngest Confucius who lowered the prestige of the count family was expelled from the family register.
And if you want to return to your family you are even told to first receive forgiveness from a knight…
Well I heard a lot but in conclusion…
“If you want to be forgiven either cut off your tongue which you are so insolent or bring the head of the knight who attacked me. I will forgive you for that.”
“····”
“You can choose either one…”
“····”
“no? “If you don’t like it just go away because just looking at your face makes me sick.”
Lee Han sneered with merciless contempt.
As if he knew he couldn’t do it anyway.
···at that time·
“Okay let’s cut it.”
“···what?”
“I will cut out my tongue. Will you then make me your squire?”
“····”
“I understand that you agree.”
wickedness·
At that moment Damian took out the scissors from his arms wondering if he had been keeping them for some time.
It was a pair of fairly sharp scissors and I went straight with it…!
Pow!
“Khehe!”
“If you cut it like that you could bleed to death… To turn someone into a murderer…”
“Hehe! Ugh!”
Damian who was kicked in the face managed to stand up despite being in pain.
However Lee Han continued speaking without any sign of apology.
“Didn’t you learn these obvious things from the Tsut family?”
“Who teaches you that?”
Damian answered with slurred pronunciation.
There was blood in his mouth and that was because his tongue had been slightly cut.
Lee Han gave Damian a low-level potion that he carried for emergencies.
“Can I drink it?”
It was Damian who suddenly grabbed the bottle and Lee Han nodded to his question.
“···thank you·”
Of course since it is a low-level potion it will not cure your tongue immediately.
However first aid would be enough and since he has learned the art of fighting he will recover on his own if left alone for a week.
And looking at that guy…
“If he had done it to arouse sympathy even if it meant fighting with the Count he would have separated your body from his head. I would have thought he did it to mock me again.”
“···Yes·”
In other words it meant that he saved his tongue because he was sincerely trying to cut it out.
“Why do you carry scissors?”
“I thought the Lord would demand something from me in some way · I was willing to give up one of his fingers or one of his ears ·”
“Do you want to go that far?”
“It doesn’t matter as long as I can return to the family.”
“···Is that so·”
“Yeah…”
···He’s a funny guy···
Before I thought he was just a bully who only knows how to talk loudly but he has quite a bit of guts doesn’t he?
It wasn’t the type I disliked…
however
‘I’m not saying I like this guy but…’
It is difficult to look at a person you once disliked positively again.
Also in the end this guy has no intention of truly asking for forgiveness and is only doing this to protect his noble status.
So he still has no reason to look good
Still he does not despise ·
Even in rural areas where there is nothing right now there are cases where secret struggles are waged to obtain the position of village chief which is nothing special.
Or there is an old man who hangs himself after losing his position as village head.
Even though I have a lot of money and don’t lack anything…
This must mean that losing power was more painful than anything else.
That’s why power is scary and at the same time people like you…
‘You probably shouldn’t get close…’
Lee Han looked down at the bastard and Damian’s pupils were constantly trembling…
Still not relaxed…
To him like that…
“You can just go. You don’t have to be a servant or an assistant so I’ll forgive you.”
“····”
“···Good job· If you had taken my word for it I would have gone to see the count· He told me to never forgive you·”
“···Yes·”
I guess he must have been moved when I saw his complexion became particularly pale…
However it was fortunate that I suppressed the temptation just in case.
Just in case I managed to save him…
Even though he found Damian funny again Lee Han did not raise the corner of his mouth but instead stretched out three of his fingers.
“Please assist me for three years three years. I will call you when you need me whether inside or outside the academy.”
“Are you not planning on taking me as your pilot?”
“I’m not in a position to take on a student so instead I’ll be accepted as an ‘assistant instructor.’ I guess that’s enough to satisfy me right? “Because you won’t like the idea of becoming my squire anyway…”
“···I won’t deny it·”
“I like that you’re honest… -Follow me assistant teacher- Because class starts today…”
“I understand Sir!”
“I will call you instructor not sir. For the next three years I will only call you instructor not your name.”
“···grunt·”
“answer·”
“···Yes instructor·”
“It’s good to hear what you’re saying…”
Lee Han turned around and Damian who managed to grab the lifeline let out a deep sigh with a tearful expression on his face.
And I think…
‘···Ah I want to go back to the entrance ceremony…’
I want to beat up the me from back then…
Damien Follett. No the man who has now become Lee Han’s assistant’s eyes became increasingly moist.
The future already seems dark…
And sure enough…
“Bring enough drinking water and towels for 80 people. Bring other necessary items as well.”
“Even money…”
“Either put my name on it and get support from the academy… or settle it with your own money…”
“····”
“Are you dissatisfied?”
“···No fucking thing…”
“You have a lot to say assistant teacher…”
“···Black·”
Damian ended up sobbing…
* * *
···There were some cadets who were momentarily taken aback when they saw Damien but their interest quickly disappeared…
Half of the cadets had a rough idea of how things were going and the other half were just not interested.
You’re busy just doing your own thing…
Lee Han also liked the selfish cadets.
Because he didn’t have to give useless explanations…
Meanwhile Lee Han who glanced at the faces of the cadets shook his head.
‘It’s a shame that everyone won’t listen to me.’
Did someone say that physiognomy is a science?
Lee Han also agreed to this.
Look at their faces. It smells like the old class you saw in the military.
It shows a will to never listen obediently.
‘You probably don’t like me…’
I understand·
Even if it were me what would I think when I was demoted from the Knights’ Order and saw the instructor who had an accident at the entrance ceremony?
It’s natural that you don’t like it…
···but·
“First of all before the instructor’s introduction and greeting I have something to suggest to the cadets…”
-···?
“For those cadets who have doubts about the instructor’s skills draw your weapon at this moment. I will deal with you as much as I want. Oh and for your information…”
-····
“If there is a cadet who can defeat this instructor I will give him the opportunity to receive the teachings of Baltar Grace… This is an oath notarized in the name of the Silver Lion…”
Chaeaeang!
“Excellent…”
The next moment half of the cadets pulled out their weapons without hesitation and poured their energy towards Lee Han.
“flaw·”
─Yes but…
Just as they don’t like him there’s no way he can like those who hate him…
The most important thing is that he spends a lot of time with these guys and has no intention of becoming friendly with them.
On the contrary…
‘It’s nice to have so many dolls…’
It was full of just the desire to take advantage…
This morning… A smile appeared on his face as he confirmed that there were indeed many ‘dolls’ to replace the Dalian dolls that unfortunately ended their fate…
They all seemed stronger than the rag dolls he had made…
Lee Han was happy…
