7 – Chapter 2. Does the Helicopter Spirit Dream of a Duke’s Adopted Daughter – 4
– 8 –
Celeste Military Academy in the Selmeier Kingdom is a historic school and the birthplace of successive generals, which can be said to be the beginning of all military powers.
The headmaster, who was the most powerful there, was General Kirst Pielon, who also served as the corps commander of the Second Corps of the Kingdom. Now he was sitting opposite the doll-like girl with a table between them.
“I guess I don’t like you.”
When Armion, who was standing behind him, spoke, he quickly accepted it.
“No. Not yet.”
With a bright smile on her face, she gave Kirst an extra shot and covered her mouth in surprise.
It was a gesture not to worry about it because it came out without my knowledge, but Kirst didn’t seem to take it that way.
“Ha ha ha. I wondered who wasn’t Armion’s adopted daughter, so how long has it been since they met? ….”
Seeing Cust holding his forehead, I was a little afraid to tease him any longer.
I brought out the words I had been clumsily thinking about.
“Tell me why I should enter the military academy.”
I stuttered, but it was quite a long sentence. Gradually, I learned the principle and usage of the interpreter bracelet, so I was able to speak to a certain extent by cutting off long sentences.
At my words, Kirst raised his eyes and looked at me and Armion alternately.
“Didn’t you explain, Armion?”
“I just arrived and informed that I was going to enter the military academy.”
Curst pressed his hand to the corner of his eyes as if tired.
“Hey, you bastard. That’s why you’re reacting so harshly.”
“Is that so? If I had informed you in advance, it wouldn’t have changed much.”
“Uh-huh. Done. This ignorant guy. Now, let’s talk about it openly.”
Said Kirst looking straight at me.
“You will become the [Guardian Spirit] Of our kingdom in the future. I understand?”
“No.”
“…… [Master Chromium]”
Fajik
A spark went off in my head.
“Ugh.”
I thought I had gotten used to the headache that occurs when I heard a specific word, but the headache caused by the words that reacted particularly loudly was not yet familiar.
“[Arumanan]”
Fajik
This time, I was able to prepare for it and move on to the point where I frowned a lot without moaning.
Seeing my expression, Kirst nodded his head to see what he was thinking.
“I expect you to play the same role as them. The guardian spirit of the Selmeier Kingdom.”
There seemed to be no option not to obey Curst. It was obvious that Armi was also in a hurry, so she had nowhere to ask for help.
Being ignorant of this world and converging to zero in blood, academic ties, and delay, I had no choice but to accept his proposal.
But obeying someone’s orders like this was so outrageous.
At least I get what I can get.
“Home.”
“Huh?”
“Give me a house?”
Kirst answered my question with a puzzled expression.
“Everyone lives in a dormitory here.”
After shaking his head heavily on purpose, he said it again.
“After graduation. 2Nd floor or higher. House. To the city.”
“… ….”
Armion’s expression standing behind him is probably the same as that of Kirst in front of him. It looked like he had been hit hard on the chin.
He held down a smile that seemed to come out of nowhere and said the following requirements.
“Salary. No, pension. Forever.”
At that moment, Kirst seemed to have come to his senses, shook her head slightly and took out a notebook from his arms.
“Are we going to negotiate? Okay. I’d rather do this. By the way, where did you learn the word pension?”
Oh, I asked for the bait.
I was excited and said the following conditions.
“Employee salary. Separately.”
“Does it mean that users do not want to pay their wages with their own money? Well, high-ranking officers have similar policies.”
“Vacation.”
“In Korea, according to international standards, we work for five days and take two days off. There are also quite a few other holidays. Soldiers take turns resting that day. If you can’t rest on that day, rest the next day. And you can also take a few days off during the year if you want.”
It was a fairly familiar pattern, so I agreed.
What else? Of all the food, clothing and shelter, I mentioned the most expensive place to live, and what to eat and wear can be solved with a moderate amount of pension.
As he continued to ponder and moan, Kirst folded his notebook and said absurdly.
“Is that all?”
What should I do if I can’t remember?
Said Kirst with a mean smile.
“In return, you might leave the military academy and spend your whole life as a war weapon in the kingdom?”
“Ah.”
Weapons of war? Looking back at Armion, he avoided my gaze.
Without ever feeling betrayed, Kirst continued.
“Master Chromium has his own estate and his personal army. Arumanan has several floating islands in the floating archipelago.”
He held out his pen and pointed at me.
“You are a humanoid spirit just like them. You can ask for more.”
Not for common people like pensions. ‘ Kirst smiled and looked happy for some reason.
In the end, the request for compensation for attending the military academy was decided to be withheld.
From what I heard, Master Mercy is a terrifyingly large tank and its spirits from an empire that occupied half of a large continent across the sea.
The air battleship Arumanan and the Spirit belonged to a small kingdom, and it is said that they defended against a powerful foreign invasion for decades.
Me? Trapped in her little girl’s body, she is nothing more than a petty spirit remembering that she was a human male.
Even the war weapon they demanded, I had never driven my body properly.
What will happen next? You can’t just live peacefully.
It was lunchtime and when I went to the restaurant, there was a huge crowd. Most of them were students in uniform.
Fortunately, I changed into the usual clothes I brought in in advance, so it won’t be very noticeable.
I was coming to see Kirst, one of my few acquaintances, and I wondered why I wore a dress, but I decided to respect each culture because there are etiquettes.
Following Curst, we headed to the luxurious dining room opposite, rather than to the restaurant where students were rushing in, when we heard murmuring around us.
I looked around to see what was going on, and there were people on one side.
When I went there secretly from the two men who were ahead of me, I saw a boy and a girl my age facing each other.
Seeing that he hadn’t even worn a uniform yet, it looked like he was a freshman just entering the school.
‘What.’
The moment I saw the faces of the two, I felt a strange sense of disorientation. As I was staring intently at them because I wanted to see them somewhere, the crowd of people gathered around me fell far away.
I looked around and saw the two of them facing each other again, and they were looking at me with bewildered expressions.
Is my face in trouble again?
I had deliberately pretended to be ignorant before, but this face was definitely a striking beauty. Besides, the hair and skin are pure white, so it will stand out even more.
Two boys and girls who were growling are instantly captivated. It was my face, but it was so scary.
Being too handsome is also a problem.
Convincing herself like that, she was nodding her head when suddenly a shock was applied to her head.
“Oh!”
For a moment, a star popped out in front of me. Looking back, Armion and Kirst were standing with their fists clenched together.
Oh, you stopped fighting because you saw the men behind you, not me.
Sorry for the pretentiousness.
Kirst was the headmaster of this school and seemed to be famous, so he must have recognized his face.
“What’s the fuss?”
When Curst lowered his voice and asked, the embarrassed [Male and female protagonists] Bowed their heads.
Huh? What now…….
“Sorry!”
“Wrong!”
Seeing them flex their backs almost 90 degrees, Kirst clicked his tongue and beckoned to someone who seemed to be a teacher approaching from afar.
A young teacher in an officer’s uniform rushed up and saluted Kirst.
“Yes! Principal.”
“Teacher. Those two are going to be admitted, right?”
“I will check. Do you want to penalize me?”
As soon as there was talk of demerit points, the two began to tremble.
If you get demerit points before you even enter the school, it’s probably a little bit like that. I think Kirst caught it because of me.
I thought I should go ahead and dry it, but Curst shook his head.
“No. Just submit your name later.”
“Yes!”
The discussion of the penalty points was dismissed, but the two were still in tears. It would have been better if it had ended with a penalty point, unfortunately, to be marked by a bad-tempered principal.
I feel a little sorry because I think it was all because of me. But it’s human psychology to want to see people in a crowd.
I glanced back as I was dragged by Armion and Curst’s hands, and the two men facing the teacher looked at me. I thought it was a look of resentment, but it didn’t seem like that.
To put it bluntly…… Sympathy?
Why, why are you looking at me like that?
The two men who looked away from the girl who looked like they were being dragged away by the two big men—even the principal—was begging to be rescued.
“He pushed me to the shoulder first.”
“No, I didn’t see it. Did you even apologize?”
“What?”
The two of them were about to fight again, so the teacher sighed.
“Be quiet. You can’t start working before you even go to school. Come on, call your name.”
When the teacher pulled out a thick notebook, the two sighed.
“This is Shane Grafol.”
In response to the brown-haired boy’s answer, the jet-black-haired girl immediately said her name.
“This is Cermia Seine.”
The teacher, who was looking through her notebook, grinned as if she had found something.
“Seinera to Grafol. Are you from Stylon?”
“Yes.”
The voices of the two overlapped, and the two looked at each other in surprise and started a snowball fight again.
“hahahaha. You should get along well with people from the east. I’ll tell the principal well. Actually, I’m from Stylon.”
The teacher wrinkled one of her eyes, and the boy and girl sighed in relief.
“Then let’s go. Oh. Do you know where the dormitory is?”
“Yes.”
“The entrance ceremony is next Monday, so listen to the school broadcast and gather.”
“Yes.”
Shane and Chermia responded at the same time as if in a chorus, and the teacher left her seat with a smile on their cute appearance.
As soon as the teacher left, Shane stared at her for a moment, then swish her back behind her and went on her way.
Seeing her face, Chermia smirked and turned her tongue around her, but she realized that her destination was the same direction Shane had gone, so she had no choice but to wait for a while, and then she started following him.
