How to Live As a Returnee Munchkin Swordsman

51 – Special training and special lectures (5)

“ … Therefore, the supreme royal family of Klepe and the Tristan Hero Academy will do their best so that all the cadets and people from each country participating in this symposium can become heroes. Please, I sincerely hope that such a time will be possible for you as well.”

-Wow!!

-It’s a great speech! I’m impressed!

– For Clepe! For Clepe!

-You are so beautiful, Her Highness the Princess!!

＜Symposium Invitation to Military Academy＞ begins with a speech at the main playground located in the center of the school.

The subject of the speech is usually the dean of the military academy and the representatives of the attendees from other countries.

And this semester, as a representative of the royal family, the third princess Bellaria Cleppe’s speech was also included.

In fact, since the symposium event itself is so free, there were many people who walked around the school without listening to the speech… Only during Bellaria’s speech was the story different.

The most beautiful appearance and the elegance of royalty that cannot be followed.

In order to capture the image even once more, many heroes attended the event after hearing her speech.

‘… It’s boring.’

However, for Bellaria, such a speech was boring.

Since growing up as a member of the proud royal family from about two years ago, I’ve been to quite a few speeches like this, but I haven’t been very interested in formal and meaningless acts.

Of course, the text of the speech was not written by himself.

It was a speech that had gone through countless checks at the Royal Home Office, and she was just reading it like a puppet.

Because of this, the cheers pouring out after the speech are bound to feel boring-.

both inside and outside the palace.

There weren’t many areas that Bellaria could do on her own.

“Your Highness, please be patient. Now that the special lecture is over, the big event for today is over.”

Did he read Bellaria’s expression?

The maid in charge, who was assisting her from behind, spoke quietly.

Then Bellaria smiled slightly.

“Do you have a chance to read minds?”

“At least for Her Highness, that might be the case.”

“This is all your fault. Didn’t I say that going outside would be fun?”

“sorry. It’s my negligence.”

In fact, there was a part that even the maid could not have predicted.

As this event is cooperating with the royal family, there were a lot of official statues required of Bellaria.

It was not an event that could only be enjoyed.

Bellaria hated such a showy position or a flashy attitude the most, so of course she couldn’t like this kind of event where she forced a smile as the representative of the royal family.

Rather, if there had been an event where one of the military academy instructors would come out and educate her, she would have enjoyed participating more.

-From now on, the special lecture by Instructor Edgar Mullick, the 3rd class instructor of the Swordsmanship Department of the Military Academy, is scheduled to begin.

‘Edgar Mulick… This person’s lecture would be no different.’

Naturally, I lost interest in Instructor Edgar’s special lecture.

maybe it was natural

Bellaria participated in the symposium according to the royal family’s schedule, and Instructor Edgar was also assigned this special lecture at the royal family’s request.

Just as she gave a largely meaningless speech, he too would give a theoretical and boring lecture.

The reason this lecture received a lot of attention was that he was a hero who had recently made a name for himself in the kingdom.

There was only one.

So Bellaria had no particular thoughts about this lecture.

“… hmm? what?”

“what. Why aren’t you coming out?”

“Has it been a progressive accident?”

3 minutes after the lecture begins.

No one appears on the center stage, and only quiet silence lingers… That is, until that strange phenomenon happened.

‘… what?’

All the heroes in the auditorium began to hum, and Bellaria also tilted her head.

It is also unusual that a high-ranking aristocrat on the level of Edgar caused an accident in such an important event, but no further explanation is given.

It is a place where even celebrities from all over the world have gathered, but to think that such a clumsy blank continues… .

This was obviously unusual.

and.

“uh?”

The reason soon became clear.

Kwaaang-!!

Ohhhhh-!!

A tearing noise and a tremendous shock come to the quiet auditorium.

The neatly built center of the stage was destroyed in an instant, and soon a monster in the shape of a bear appeared.

Brilliant red eyes and huge body.

Even sharp claws that would not be safe if scratched -.

Just looking at his physical characteristics, he was a guy who could never be taken lightly.

“I’m Red Burn Grills, the 3rd tier monster! Be careful everyone!”

At that moment, a hero in the front row on the right shouts quickly.

It was the special hero of the Holy Kingdom of Bedlien, Sir Chaser.

As befits a walking demonic dictionary, he immediately grasped the information of the demonic beast that had just appeared.

3rd tier monster, Red Burn Grills.

A beast in the form of a bear possessing tremendous physical abilities, it was a monster that even a high-ranking hero could not escape an instant death the moment it got caught in its claws.

The danger quickly turned the inside of the auditorium into a mess.

“Your Highness, hide inside!”

“What is this… .”

“All the knights of the Guard take defensive formations! We must protect Her Highness!”

The heroes belonging to the Guard Knights began to get busy.

3rd tier monsters are monsters that even 3rd tier heroes cannot easily hunt.

Although the 4th hero, the vice-captain of the Guard Knights, participated in this event, anyway, the princess could get hurt if she wasn’t careful, so she had to form a defensive line as soon as possible.

however.

‘… Do you guys even consider the profit and loss in this situation?’

Bellaria Cleppe read the eyes of the knights in that brief moment.

anxious.

and hesitation.

The coexistence of the thought that I might die if I make a mistake and the thought that I should run away if something goes wrong.

Bellaria knew better than anyone else the reason for those eyes that made it hard to believe that she was a member of the Royal Guard.

‘Because they are knights on the side of Prince 2.’

Half of the Kingdom Guard Knights are heroes who sided with the second prince, Philios Klepe.

That’s why they were the ones who could abandon Bellaria at any time, given the chance.

But to show such hesitation even in an unexpected situation at an official event like this… It was a fact that he knew to some extent, but Bellaria had no choice but to have a bitter taste.

‘… It’s lonely.’

She suddenly felt lonely.

Even in this crisis situation, the only person who would take her side was an ordinary maid, not even a hero.

Perhaps the emotion she had been experiencing was not boredom, but rather loneliness.

… and.

Kwaaang-!!

The demonic beast that suddenly appeared suddenly disappeared again.

Within.

A hero, with blonde hair like Bellaria’s, appeared at the center of the stage.

“To all the heroes who came to the symposium, I am sincerely glad to meet you. My name is Edgar Mullik, the instructor of the Faculty of Swordsmanship, who will be in charge of today’s special lecture ＜The Escape and Dangers of the Witchbeast＞.”

The culprit behind all these incidents has finally revealed itself.

* * *

It’s cold.

It feels like a dagger will fly into my chest and pierce it.

No matter how small the heroes gathered in the auditorium, there will be 3,000 people… Probably more than 3,000 daggers?

But it’s okay.

Because I’ve prepared all the ways to convince them all.

“Edgar Mullik!! What kind of recklessness is this!! At least, Her Highness, the princess, might have suffered an accident!!”

Of course, I was a little taken aback when a hero in the front screamed.

Seeing the figure leading the formation and the figure of the third princess in the middle… Apparently, he was the vice-captain of the Kingdom Guard Knights in charge of the escort.

I explained in a calm voice.

“Calm down for now. I’ll explain everything… ”

“What an explanation! I don’t know how the hell they summoned the Witchbeast, but is there anything more important than this critical situation where Her Highness might be injured?!”

But when did you say you saw this bastard?

While he was organizing his thoughts for a moment, the vice-captain’s screams seemed unwilling to stop.

“This matter must be uncovered and addressed directly to His Majesty the King… !!”

“Count Katumen. stop.”

“… yes?”

But it wasn’t me who organized the situation.

The escort object in their center.

The kingdom’s third princess, Bellaria Clepe, spoke with an icy face.

“It is a place where people from all over the world and the future of the kingdom come together. “I hope you can protect your body.”

“Oh, that’s… .”

“And Sir Edgar is the official instructor of the military academy’s swordsmanship department, and the son of Marquis Mullik of the kingdom’s great sorcerer family. Even Duke Crowlin, the great sword of the kingdom, is a person who shows courtesy… “Why are you being so rude?”

“… … .”

Vice-captain Count Katumen’s expression turned dark for an instant.

An expression that said he never thought he would be scolded by the person he was guarding.

Moreover, as the attention of celebrities from all over the world was focused on her, it seemed like she felt a little embarrassed.

It didn’t take long for Count Katumen to bow his head.

“… sorry.”

“I don’t think it’s something you need to apologize to me for.”

“… Instructor Edgar. I’m sorry. “I committed a hasty act of rudeness without even listening to an accurate explanation of the situation.”

“it’s okay. “It’s a situation that everyone must have been quite embarrassed by.”

I nodded and accepted his apology.

After such a storm passed, the intestines naturally began to calm down.

The cadets who had run away from afar were also returning to the main auditorium one by one, and the eyes of the heroes inside were all focused on me as if they were demanding an explanation.

and.

Princess Bellaria, who helped me, also looked this way.

“Instructor Edgar Mullick, can you explain now? “Actually, Count Katumen may have exaggerated a little, but it is true that we almost got seriously hurt and were quite surprised.”

The look in her eyes when she says that…

There was a hint of it being so interesting that it was unbearable.

The look in their eyes is as if they are wondering how I will solve this situation.

And on the other hand, it looks like he is completely enjoying this situation.

I thought about it as I was receiving it from the front.

‘It’s cold.’

… If I say this wrong, I will be dragged into the crime of threatening the royal family.
