I Became an Academy Attack Helicopter

25 – Chapter 8. Band of Warriors – 2

– 26 –

“Everyone worked hard!”

When the last student passed the finish line, the teacher shouted loudly.

Five people, including myself, stood next to the teacher in the order in which they arrived.

Everyone looked at my face, standing in the fourth seat, once in surprise.

Your face burned on a different level than when you fully ran the operator training by borrowing the power of the spirit.

I couldn’t be as brazen as it was back then.

“Applause to the five fastest people here!”

I finally lowered my head at the pouring applause and cheers.

Was it such a shame to be praised for the achievements I had achieved entirely on my own?

No, it was a little different from being embarrassed. It felt like my heart was tickling.

I don’t know if I have a heart right now.

After the first lesson was over, I headed to the shower room attached to the changing room.

I thought I was going to move my body in the second lesson, so I just washed my face and left.

“I didn’t know Erif could run so well.”

Shane said with a smile, but her eyes were burning with uplifting spirits.

Boy. You, too, have ignited the flame of imagery.

“Me too.”

“Yes? I’m surprised. I thought myself to be in good shape, but when I came here, it wasn’t at all. At least it should be enough to follow Erif.”

It’s good that my actions motivate someone.

Especially when the male protagonist burns his will.

My theory is that the main character must be strong.

The second class was held in a gym-like place next to the playground.

As she was sitting next to Shane and her friends waiting, the teacher who made them run came up to the podium.

“Let’s see where this time… …. It’s a class on power armor. It’s not an official class yet, so let’s briefly explain and practice right away.”

The children’s eyes lit up and looked forward to them. Even I, who saw the power of power armor in front of my eyes, was a little excited.

“I think you know it, but the power armor was made by that dwarf named Smith, who reinterpreted the relic. You can learn things like history separately later, and what is important to us is practice.”

As the teacher beckoned, some of her seniors came in pushing a large box with wheels.

Oh, it’s Muria-senpai.

Her eyes widened slightly as the senior saw me as well, and then she smiled.

The identity of the box taller than a person was a closet, no, a power armor storage box.

It seemed that it was not enough for more than a hundred students to wear. About 10 pieces?

“Please come up to the students who were in the running rankings earlier.”

I got up from my seat at the teacher’s words and went up to the podium.

Thanks to the bee, everyone, including the size in the rankings, was exuding an atmosphere of doing some exercise.

Except for me.

A senior in power armor stood in front of us.

The teacher started her explanation by pointing her baton to each part of the armor worn by the senior.

“Power Armor is based on a full-body suit, and there are a driving part that contains magic stones to drive magic, an armor part for protection, and an output part that temporarily increases the output to make the action faster or is linked with the weapon.”

The last time I played the hostage role, it was dark and frantic, so I didn’t have a chance to take a closer look.

When I observed it right in front of it, it looked quite sturdy as it had the word “Armor” On it.

But I thought it would be that heavy.

“Explain this much, and the five of you should wear the armor here. The back there is connected to the changing room.”

The children rushed to the teacher’s words and started to rummage through the closet.

I’m much smaller than the other kids, so there’s no need to compete like that.

“Come on.”

I was standing idly from behind, and my body held out something. There was enough power armor in his hand that I could wear.

“Oh, thank you.”

I never thought you would take care of me.

He smiled and headed to the dressing room.

He was a better guy than I thought.

When I put on the power armor in the changing room, it was lighter than I thought, so I was surprised once again because it was comfortable to wear.

When I came out, Muria-senpai was waiting and put her helmet on.

“Erif. Isn’t it better than it looks?”

The senior smiled and patted me on the back, and after bowing my head in return, I went up to the podium.

“The training power armor is used in earnest from the second year, when the class is composed to some extent. In my freshman year, classes are mainly focused on physical fitness, so there won’t be many opportunities to wear them.”

The sound of children’s groaning could be heard up to here.

“We gather at the playground. Students in armor will follow me.”

Watching the children rushing out, we followed the teacher to the back of the gym, and we took short ‘L’-shaped rods one by one.

If you look closely, this is what the seniors used in practice last time.

“Do not aim or shoot at people who are not wearing armor. It doesn’t hurt much if you get hit directly, but it’s dangerous if you get hit in the eye or something like that. Oh. Don’t forget to lower the helmet visor later.”

“Yes!”

With excitement, anticipation and excitement, we headed to the playground.

The comrades who had already appeared on the playground were watching this way from a distance like spectators.

As we were about to move, wondering if we should go over there, seniors wearing power armor like us appeared.

Sunbae Muria, who was standing in front, said with a smirk.

“Please take good care of me, juniors.”

What?

“The 2nd graders are still immature, and the 5th graders and up have a lot of outside schedules, so the 3rd and 4th graders will deal with you. Teamwork and how to use power armor, no matter how you explain them, are not as good as encountering them once.”

The teacher smiled cheerfully and slapped me on the back who was standing in front. I was almost pushed forward even though I was wearing power armor.

“The magic contained in this wand has been lowered as much as possible, and only the visible effect and damage to the magic shield are saved.”

The children began looking intently at the wand, as if it were a lifesaver.

“Activate the magic shield by pressing the yellow button on the wrist guard on your left arm. If you hit a room without turning it on, you are out immediately.”

There were a few buttons on the wrist protector of the left arm that were slightly deep to prevent them from being pressed, and I tried pressing the yellow button among them.

I felt a thin film covering the entire armor.

As the other children activated the shield, the teacher nodded her head and pointed to a corner of the playground a little further away from the gym.

“Can you see where the cover is gathered over there? Stay there as long as you can. When the magic shield is broken, the driving part of the armor is turned off, and then it is out. I will give you 5 minutes to plan the operation. If I can defeat even one senior, I will give you extra points when you sign up for this class.”

Additional points!

What a heartbreaking word.

I, my children, and my comrades quickly ran to the cover.

I entered the only building with a roof in a place lined with concrete walls that reach chest height when standing up.

The five people gathered in a circle and started exchanging opinions.

“I don’t have time. First of all, you and I took the CQC class together, right? We will stand in front.”

The other two nodded at the big words.

“You and Erif. You don’t know how to use a wand yet, so I’ll give you a brief overview. Press this button to turn it on, press it again to turn it off. If you pull this trigger while charged, it fires.”

“Okay.”

“Cover the two of you from behind.”

Naturally, he became a leader.

As each helmet had a number on it, they set it as a call sign and sat down.

I hid behind the fence right in front of the building and looked out my head to check how far I could see.

When I looked to the side of the wall, I could only see the wall in front of me.

In order to properly check, you have to stick your head upwards.

When the charge button on the magic wand was pressed, the vibration of the power armor’s drive part got a little stronger.

It seems that the magic shield is slightly reduced.

Is the defense weaker when attacking?

As I was exchanging meaningless glances with other colleagues who were a bit further away, I heard a whistle.

The moment I lifted my head slightly, a magic sphere flew in front of my eyes.

“Hey!”

He almost fell to the ground and barely avoided it by bowing his head. The magic sphere that passed like a helmet touched the outer wall of the building and disappeared.

A childish scream could be heard from the front as if the battle had begun. If you stand still while your teammates are suffering, you won’t be able to get any real points, let alone extra points.

I quickly moved to the next fence and grasped the position of the opposing team.

Two seniors entered the cover course.

One person near the entrance could not see if he had already been hit, and the other two were colorful as if they had painted their entire body.

One of the seniors on the outside of the course hit me. A green sphere the size of a coin reached in front of me in an instant.

For a moment, it felt like time was passing slowly. The magical power of the wind that resided in the rotating sphere was clearly visible.

Swish

He bent his head to avoid the sphere, and then raised his wand to save the two being attacked.

I pressed the charge button and aimed at one of the seniors facing off with my colleagues.

Hooung

The green sphere flew once more. It was slightly larger than it had just been.

“Chit”

He kicked his tongue and flew to the side.

I immediately pushed the floor with my hand, got up, and pointed at the charged wand.

And the head of the senior he was aiming for was clearly visible with the sense that time was slowing down.

I just pulled the trigger.

What came out of my weapon was a red sphere the size of a fist.

One of the seniors was hit by a sphere in his helmet and fell backwards.

In the meantime, the comrade who was being attacked quickly got up and joined the other comrades.

Hooung

Small spheres flew towards the seniors outside the cover while avoiding the spheres that were intensively flying towards me.

Thanks to you, I was able to move the location safely behind another fence.

It seems that a friend who was in charge of keeping the rear with me gave support fire.

He raised his thumb towards him and looked at the situation again.

The other two came out behind the two comrades with few shields left.

The senior who had been hit with a headshot earlier was slowly coming out of cover with one hand raised.

Have you done it?

The problem is that all the seniors who were waiting outside came inside the cover.

In particular, Senior Muria made a gesture of slitting her neck with her thumb towards me.

I thought it was a joke because he was smiling enough to reveal his teeth under the visor, but it was so creepy that it was creepy.

It was impossible for two people to stop four seniors.

He shouted while shooting small spheres at the seniors.

“No. 2, No. 5! Retreat!”

The two fled backwards as if waiting.

The attacks of the seniors continued in the middle, but thanks to me and the other one’s check, the two were able to retreat safely.

“Wow!”

In an instant, a scream was heard from an unexpected place.

When I turned my head, my colleague, whose armor was turned off, was making a frightened expression.

Soak

Behind her colleague, who knelt down on her knees, stood Muria-senpai with a smile like her reaper.

After subduing her comrades and knocking them down on the floor, she pointed her wand at me.

“Erif would be perfect for a sniper later. In addition to that unusual amount of magical power, the ability to accurately target the head of our agile assault team.”

I also raised the magic wand and aimed it at the senior.

I looked forward with a squint, but the two in the lead had already been subdued.

I’m the only one left.

“Erif. Are you coming to the war squad?”

At the words of Muria-senpai, who was confident, she moved her lips to draw her lines.

“No. I am a pilot.”

Maybe it was an unexpected answer, Muria-senpai’s posture was disturbed for a moment.

Aiming for that moment, while pressing the charge button and pulling her trigger,

Recognize

“Ah”

She felt a tingling pain in her wrist and lost her wand.

Senior Muria, who was approaching me, turned off the driving part of my power armor and took off her helmet.

Kong

“Aww!”

“Is there a way to cut it like that?”

While talking like that, Muria-senpai was smiling.

“I’m sorry. It has already been decided.”

“Oh. Special student?”

“Yes.”

Senior Muria scratched her cheek and sighed.

“Ha. I thought that an interesting junior came in. Well, it’s okay to listen to the full-time major class because it’s fun.”

“Yes.”

Even so, I was thinking about listening to it because it was more interesting than I thought.

With the helmet returned by her senior on her side, she and her comrades came out of the cover and received applause.

“Student #4. What’s your name?”

I was awakened by the teacher’s question.

Additional points? Is it an add-on point?

“This is Erif Cruel.”

“Erif Cruel. A Cruel Duke?”

“Yes.”

The teacher nodded her head, convincing herself of something.

“I did. Then, I will give extra points to the five people who have just practiced. Specially for Erif Cruel.”

“Thank you!”

I and my colleagues looked at each other and laughed.

I was happy with the addition, but apart from that, the friendship that had suddenly formed was flowing between us.

So all the classes in the first week are over.
