Chapter 42
He hates discrimination·
Is it because there is so much history of being discriminated against?
For example because he was the son of a division commander he succeeded in being promoted to the highest rank at a very high speed.
On the other hand even though he worked for 10 years he was overlooked for promotion for some absurd reason and remained as a sergeant for the rest of his life.
Because he suffered many things that were heartbreaking he came to value fairness to the extent that it can be said to be absolute in dealing with others.
So he wasn’t going to give Sprout Joe preferential treatment just because he was from the lower class and he wasn’t going to abandon him even if he was a nobleman’s child.
Fairness means being treated equally.
So…
“-Now let’s try our best today too.”
“····”
Lee Han was at the academy…
All 54 cadets of the swordsmanship department who did not go to Vulcan and remained at the academy looked at their instructor with puzzled faces.
···What is this dream?
“···Instructor·”
“Tell me chick number 3…”
“Hey I heard that you are going to Vulcan for training.”
“Is that so?”
“And as far as I know the distance between Vulkan and the Academy is 40km…”
“It’s 37·9km to be exact…”
“I see…”
No that’s not important now!
“Why are you here? “Who needs to be in Vulcan?”
“I came to teach you…”
“···What about Vulkan?”
“I came here after teasing you during the day. I’m going to teach you and train you again at night.”
“····”
“Why do you look at me like that?”
“···No I thought you were a unique person.”
“Everything is special… The only thing that is sincere…”
“haha····”
Well I am a person who runs a round trip of 75·8km just to avoid missing classes so how can I not be sincere?
The female cadet who was called a chick laughed at the reality that she could not bear to refute…
* * *
···It’s only now that I mention it but there was a big uproar over the news that Lee Han and Odwall were playing war games…
In the history of the Academy the Department of Swordsmanship and the Department of Magic have always had an acrimonious relationship but even so there has never been such a direct conflict in history…
However the progress of the war game had already spread so quickly that there was no time to stop it and even the nobles were looking forward to it so even if the academy tried to stop it it could not.
Because the cause and flow were already out of control…
And because of this Lee Han had to be called to the dean’s office again…
I got scolded…
How many incidents do they cause in the first semester alone?
Of course there were many corrections…
Because the one who started the fight in the first place is a spellcaster and the one who started a fight with a pointless excuse is also a spellcaster…
So he was proud and the dean shook his head the back of his neck aching.
···Nevertheless seeing as how he supports activity expenses for the cadets it is clear that the dean is the dean…
‘It’s nice to meet such a true educator after only meeting corrupt teachers…’
However there seemed to be no great expectations on the face of the dean who gave the large sum of money.
It was clear that the swordsmanship department would be defeated in the war game…
And this was not just the dean’s attitude but the entire academy.
As if victory or defeat has already been decided…
“It can’t be helped. In war games warriors are pawns when playing chess. Skilled warriors are treated as bishops but wizards are treated as queens or knights.”
“The treatment of warriors is too narrow… narrow-minded people…”
“···What can we do with a record like that?”
“That’s because the humans who lost are weak…”
“Compared to you instructor is there anyone who is not weak?”
“I’m relatively weak too…”
“····”
The expression on one of the cadet’s faces was distorted as if it was the most absurd thing he had heard this year…
No the reason for the distortion is that the pain is stronger than the absurdity…
“Keueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
“Ugh!”
“Wow! “Whoops…!”
There were many cadets collapsing or retching here and there…
Instead of jumping over the rope everyone who had been sparring with the instructor under the pretext of unlimited free sparring was thrown to the ground and complained of pain.
However strangely enough no one was seriously injured.
Even though he was defeated the instructor controlled his strength in the end…
…although this was more humiliating…
“I didn’t kill you to humiliate you. The priest in the recovery room told me to stop sending the kids so I had no choice.”
“…There are a lot of injured people…”
“Instructor are you sure you really came running from Vulcan?”
“What is strength…”
Looking at someone who looks so unimpressed after defeating them all like this it’s hard to believe that he is also in a state of low stamina.
“It is true that I have less energy than usual… No matter how much I am an instructor I get out of breath when I go back and forth that distance… But is there any reason to have a hard time against ‘kids’?”
“····”
“Are you angry? Then try to become stronger because the instructor will do his best to teach you.”
“····”
“Why do you look at me like that?”
“…I was just curious… I wondered why someone who was so passionate didn’t take us to Vulcan…”
“Are you talking about special intensive training?”
“····”
“Hmm as I said the day before I told people who wanted to go to meet on the day of departure. But you guys didn’t show up…”
“···that·”
The cadet who unconsciously expressed his disappointment gritted his teeth saying that he thought it was a childish repulsion.
But he couldn’t help it ·
Because they didn’t go because they didn’t want to go…
“What can I do when my family tells me not to go?”
“Are these adults still living in captivity at home?”
“···!”
“Haha it’s just a joke. I wonder if I don’t know your situation.”
There were probably some among them who wanted to listen to Lee Han’s intensive lecture.
Especially those who have felt their bodies becoming stronger through training…
Knowingly or not I began to recognize Lee Han as a great instructor.
···But they are nobles·
People who live in authority and honor and belong to a class society where status locality and blood ties are more important than anything else.
So they could never disobey the family’s orders.
“Hmm some of the people here have probably already been told not to go to my class. They probably consider it a blemish on their family to go to the class of a knight born from low birth.”
“····”
“I’m not angry. I’m not offended. I’m from a knighthood. Don’t you know this?”
He was none other than the official bully of the Silver Lion.
We have already grown tired of the nobles’ sense of privilege…
Well there are more people who got beaten up by him for showing their sense of privilege…
“I understand you… nobles do not allow foreign substances to be mixed into their history…”
Among the cadets there are probably some who want to learn [Sutra]…
Anyway isn’t this quite an impressive technology?
However there is no way a noble family would ever allow this…
They are aristocrats whose pride in the speculative methods and technologies they have cultivated over hundreds of years is sky-high.
In that sense Lee Han’s technique is something special…
In terms of martial arts the noble family is a righteous sect and Lee Han’s skills are similar to those of the black or evil sect. To be more serious he would be treated like a demonic sect from a demonic cult.
I think if I learn it I will be expelled from the martial arts community or even from the family.
‘There are some who aren’t…’
Mainly Arno and Loen·
Although both are descendants of great nobles they are relatively free-spirited.
Offengayata has a heterogeneous side without hesitation in absorbing the family’s techniques and on the other hand in the case of Loen he does not care about the family’s opinions so he has no worries about receiving instruction from him.
Damian?
That’s just rolling…
In other words the only people who are begging Lee Han for lessons right now are either people who have no one to rely on or people who don’t care about others at all.
The situation is different from these…
So they are angry…
They also have a desire to learn and a sense of rebellion against the family but in the end they cannot refuse the family’s orders.
“Among you there must have been some who wanted me to go to Vulkan and train them.”
“···Keuhum·”
“But that’s not possible… The training I’m giving you in Vulcan right now is training done by desperate guys. Even if I took you by force it probably wouldn’t have had much success. They’re busy looking ahead and moving forward so how can they be desperate when they have to pay attention to so many things? ·”
“····”
“Still the instructor apologizes if he made the other guys feel like they were receiving special treatment. It wasn’t his intention.”
“···We are really sorry…”
Average nineteen or twenty
Although they are adults just because they are adults does not mean they are adults.
I’m not yet mature…
So it is the adult’s duty to understand that there is still a childish and whining side.
It was Lee Han’s sincere apology and they felt moved for no reason.
“Thank you for understanding…”
It’s somehow touching and has a warm atmosphere…
Lee Han-eun·
“In that sense let this instructor spar with you again. Come on.”
“···Yes?”
“Just as we treated the others specially you should also have special training… Opportunities like this are not easy… Please stand up quickly…”
“····”
A shattering feeling…
For reference it’s not that important but Lee Han’s MBTI tendency in his past life was T.
* * *
…I guess I’m giving the recovery room priest a hard time today again…
Lee Han was proud!
Do you feel like you acted like an educator?
‘All those people who said they couldn’t empathize with me in my past life were wrong… How certain is this empathy…’
Since you wanted to grow didn’t you do your best to teach him/her to make that wish come true?
It is truly the essence of empathy.
He felt a great sense of satisfaction and now that things have come to this he feels obligated to double down on those who are attacking him today…
‘What else should I add to my night training?’
I would like to add individual battles and cliff climbing.
His head was spinning wildly and as his head was spinning it was a sad bud that a nightmare was scheduled for tonight.
It was a case where pointless sincerity became poison.
Stop…
“···?”
As he took a step Lee Han’s keen senses felt something unfamiliar…
“This is…”
The thing that made him feel strange was the scarecrow that was all over the gym…
It is a scarecrow used for swordsmanship training but it has not been used since Lee Han became an instructor in the swordsmanship department.
He tends to prefer real fighting to playing scarecrows…
So the scarecrow was now being treated as a decoration in the gym that even the cadets didn’t touch much.
However Lee Han’s keen senses made him realize that there was a strange difference between the Scarecrow and what he always saw.
“Are you finding the difference in the picture?”
If it’s not even a real decoration the cloth hanging around the scarecrow’s neck…
It wasn’t there in the first place and Lee Han muttered wondering if some guy was playing a joke on him. He unwrapped the loose cloth and held it in his hand.
“···like·”
I had a strange smile…
I don’t know who it is…
“Are you a classic guy?”
There was a line of sentences left on Cheonjogari.
In a classic way like something out of a typical old play.
However although the method is classic…
“Hmm ‘You shouldn’t kill a wizard’… this guy…”
─How did you know?
It was an interesting story that penetrated into his inner thoughts that he had not told anyone.
