"Borrowed ......"

After the disturbers who came to the Ice Crystal were suppressed by the Imperial Army led by Colonel Savik, this disturbance was terminated without further fermentation, but the attendance group students who participated in this defense academy were not so lucky, although in the end of the battle, Ryan realized that the strength of the Ice Crystal Society disturbers was far superior to everyone, and in order to protect everyone, they rushed to the front line, but in the end, there were still many attendance group students who were injured to varying degrees.

Watching the medical team send the students to the rescue room one by one, Lane Shi changed.

"Don't put pressure on yourself, after all, this time it happened suddenly, there was no perfect deployment in advance, and the strength of the incoming enemy should not be underestimated, if you shouldn't say something, it is a blessing that there is no death report. Noi walked over to Ryan, looked at the injured juniors and sisters who swept past him, and tried to comfort Ryan.

After one last glance at the attendance group of students, Ryan didn't speak, turned around, and walked away lonely.

"The chairman wants me to send you a message, and I will let you go to the chairman's office later, and he will look for you. ”

Ryan waved his hand back to Noi and replied, "I see." ”

Looking at Ryan's distant back, Noi whispered softly in her heartache: "Isn't it really tiring to live like this." ”

In the chairman's room, after Cellr made a cup of black tea for Colonel Sevik, the two sat down.

"It's a bit humiliating, but it's better than losing your life, thank you for being there last. Cell, taking a sip of black tea, said to Sevik.

Colonel Severk sighed, got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window on the side to look at the scenery outside and replied: "After all, I also graduated from this academy, and you were my teacher back then, how could I sit idly by and ignore the difficulties of the academy today." ”

Savik's words made Sevil's thoughts suddenly return to the time when Savik was a student many years ago, maybe he thought of something, smiled secretly, took another sip of black tea, changed the topic, and asked: "How is the battle situation on the front line, you should be on the front line at this time, how can you return to the Holy City." ”

Sevik returned to his seat and said: "I was injured in the battle not long ago, the old general insisted on letting me come back to adjust, I couldn't stand his momentum, I returned to Omosirai, after a simple adjustment, I returned to the front line, but at this time the battle situation on the front line has been reversed, under the leadership of the old general, the imperial invasion forces have begun to retreat, because they are worried that the Holy City army is empty at this time, so they sent me back first." ”

After listening to Savik's words, Sal sighed loudly, Sylvik knew that this breath was also sighed by the entire Empire, the battle that lasted for more than forty days was finally temporarily over, and too many people were looking forward to the short peace after this victory.

"Is the old fellow okay?" Cell, asked Sevik.

Regarding Cell's unique name for Lieutenant General Perry, Sevik smiled and replied: "The old general's body is still tough, and the momentum shown at the age of 80 is completely embarrassing for us juniors. ”

"That's good......"

"Knock~Knock~"

A sudden knock on the door interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Chairman, I'm Ryan. Ryan's voice came from outside the chairman's room.

"Then I'll go out first......"

"It doesn't matter, it's not a matter if you stay, and with you, you can also help me enlighten him together. Cell's eyebrows tightened uncharacteristically.

In the face of Cell's insistence, Severic had no choice but to continue to sit back in his seat.

"Come in!"

The door was opened, and Ryan didn't reflect the bad emotions on his face, and after entering the chairman's room, he came to Cell.

"I tell you to sit down now, maybe you won't be obedient, then I'll say it directly, after this battle, have the casualties of the attendance group been counted? ”

In the face of Cell's directness, Ryan did not show surprise, because he knew that there was no escaping this question.

"It has been counted that 23 people were injured, two of them seriously, including Relio, who have been taken to Imperial Hospital. ”

In the face of Ryan's report, Sail was unmoved, and after listening to the report, he deliberately asked Ryan, "Did you forget to report something?"

Ryan shrugged away, his voice visibly softer than before.

"There were no deaths. ”

"That's what I want to hear from you. A smile spread across Cell's face as he finished speaking.

Ryan didn't understand what Cell's words meant, but Sevik on the side already knew and laughed meaningfully.

"Casualties can't be avoided if there is an attendance team to dispatch a mission, although you are the person in charge of the attendance group, but in the face of the temporary raid of the Ice Crystal Society today, you have controlled the casualties to a minimum, and the most important thing is that there are no students dead. Cell, looking at Ryan, said seriously.

Sevik got up and walked to Ryan's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "At the beginning of entering the barracks, because I met more comrades-in-arms, after a long time, I told myself that I need to work harder every time I am on the battlefield, because only in this way will my comrades-in-arms not be sacrificed because of my incompetence, but after a long time, after experiencing some things, I began to understand that some things cannot be changed by myself alone, and I am most afraid of not paying attention to everything, as long as I really take it seriously, some things can only be seen." ”

In the face of the enlightenment of the two, although everything is true, and Ryan himself does know all this in his heart, but since the blow of his sister's death because of himself when he was a child, Ryan's heart has become more closed, and he is unwilling to see anyone he cares about sacrifice because of his incompetence.

Just when the atmosphere was awkward, Ryan said: "Although this raid has been suppressed, it cannot be ruled out that the Ice Crystal Society will stop here, if the chairman has nothing else to explain, then I will arrange the next work." ”

Cell, knowing that he couldn't convince him for a while, nodded.

Looking at Ryan's distant back, Celle said to Sevik, "It's really like you when you were a child." ”

Sevik smiled, and when he looked at Ryan's back again, Sal sighed on the side: "Hebse Ryan, the next quasi-leader of the Hebse family. ”

Sevik was stunned, obviously he didn't expect that Ryan would be a member of the Hebse family, let alone that he would be the successor of one of the four legendary nobles of this empire.

However, he closed a window for himself, a window that he didn't want to be peeped at by outsiders, and it was really tiring to live like this, and sometimes I wish he could be a little more free. After Cell, without waiting for Sevik to say anything, he laughed bitterly at himself and continued, "But then it won't be him. ”

"By the way, I forgot to ask......"

Colonel Severik's sudden thought broke Sylvestr's contemplation, and Sylvak looked at Severk with a suspicious expression.

"Is there a student named Togili Misaki among the new students this year?" asked Sevik.

Celle looked at Sevik with a look of disbelief, and replied, "I only know that this child has been the talk of the academy since the first day of school, but I didn't expect you to know her too." ”

"No, no, no~"

Contrary to the usual serious normal, Savik seemed to deliberately deny something, and waved his hand again and again with a very unnatural expression.

Seeing that Savik didn't want to mention it, Sylvester simply didn't ask too much, but just said to Savik: "She was assigned to the medical class, this child has very good grades, but she refused the recommendation of this year's attendance group exam, although I respect her decision, but I still feel very pity." ”

Hearing Cell's words, Sevik finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said secretly: "It's okay if you don't join the attendance group, at least you won't encounter danger, just just graduate plainly and enjoy life plainly!"

"Well, then, it's time for me to take my leave. In terms of time, the old general will return to the Holy City in three days, and I should go and prepare for some things later. ”

"Severic ......"

Unexpectedly, when Sevik turned around and was about to leave, Cell's got up and stopped him.

"It's been ten years since that incident, and since the empire intends to erase this history, as your teacher, I just want to give you a piece of advice, let it be, otherwise you will be really tired to live like this. ”

Hearing Cell's words, Sevik didn't speak.

"Although I don't want to believe that is the truth, but after ten years, you should also face him, and stop throwing yourself into the battle and trying to numb yourself from thinking about it. ”

After Cell's words, the two were silent for a long time, until a loud laugh from Sevik broke the stalemate.

"The war is far from ending because of this victory of the old general, although I don't know how long it will take to meet again after this time, but we must try to live until we end the troubled times and the day of peace comes. As he spoke, he waved his hand away with his back to Cell.

Looking at Sevik's poisonous tongue, Cell's smile slightly, and his thoughts returned to when Sevik was still in the academy:

"Savik, you let me out, don't affect the other students' studies. "The intelligence teacher was chasing Severk all over the classroom in a fit of rage.

"Hey, hey. Severik laughed and ran ahead, turning back and grimacing at the teacher from time to time.

"pon~", and the bewildered Sevik hit something with his face and fell to the ground.

"Something. Sevik grumbled a few words and looked at the dark shadow in front of him.

The teacher saw the shadow man stop.

"Director Cell. ”

Cell's serious eyes stared at Sevik who fell to the ground, and Sevik only felt a chill arise spontaneously, and he couldn't help but shiver.

Cell's approach to Sevik, getting closer and closer, until the moment they met their eyes, the entire intelligence squad seemed to have a premonition that a storm was coming, and the entire squad fell silent.

"You little ghost, you really have a personality, how about it, if you think the intelligence class is boring, do you want to come to my martial arts class!" Contrary to his previous demeanor, at this moment Cell's face was full of joy and joked with Savik.

"Cut~ I'm not a casual person, to be my teacher, at least you have to have the ability to defeat me......"

......

The door of the classroom was opened, and Cell, who walked out of the intelligence class with Sevik's student materials in his hand, turned back to Sevik with a bag and said, "Then I'll go to the chairman of the board of directors to go through the transfer procedures now!"

One day after transferring to the martial arts class, Cell, who was about to pack up and leave, greeted the sunset and saw Savik sitting lonely on the academy viewing platform.

"It's rare to see that you're interested in the sunset!" said Cell, who was shielding the glare from the sunset with one hand, and sat down beside Sevik.

But in the face of Cell's ridicule this time, Servik did not choose to fight back as usual, but sat in a daze, and then the careful Sail found the sorrow on Sevik's face.

"Can you teach me how to hold my sword better?" Sevik muttered in a voice that was hard to draw.

Cell, who deliberately pretended not to hear, motioned for Sevik to repeat, until after a few times, Sevik finally shouted out loudly:

"I'm going to be a soldier, I'm going to make the weapons in my hands more meaningful. ”

Until he confirmed Savik's innermost thoughts, Cell's smiled with relief.

"What I'm teaching you now is only one-sided knowledge, you will definitely meet a noble person who will teach you more in the future, definitely. ”
