19 – The Hero Doesn’t Change

The trouble wasn’t long. In fact, the answer was already decided.

There is a saying that fostering is selection and concentration. It’s not just a game term.

This is a natural principle that must be applied wherever you go in the world.

‘I have already decided to invest in Enlil. Then we’ll go all the way.’

There is something peculiar between himself and Enlil that cannot be explained in words.

Although no one in the world knows about it, not even Enlil himself.

At least the person himself is aware of it, so it will definitely create a synergistic effect.

A candidate from the Battle Priests’ Order, whom the superiors are looking forward to.

I also wanted to confirm what kind of person I was and then decide.

If you focus on the ‘possibility’ part, that is correct. That’s reasonable

But Leone didn’t do that. If you do that, won’t it lose its appearance?

Trust is not a mind that changes depending on the situation. Giving it bit by bit won’t work.

It’s good for both the giver and the receiver to believe in it all at once.

Decided by her en-lil, chose her, saved her again and again, carved her anger against the master of her tower.

Although it’s basic, he taught me how to practice mana and settled down successfully.

That’s reason enough. The garage is full. So, it is unconditionally Enlil.

“… Now, what did you say?”

When I conveyed that decision, the reaction that came back was, of course, absurd.

Instructor Edmund, who was making a face that couldn’t erase that emotion, continued.

“Instructor Leone. This isn’t just a request. Came down from above….”

“I am an instructor who came here on my own, and I can quit at any time if things don’t go my way. Is there anything wrong with what I said right now?”

I am not tied to this academy by any status or blood ties.

Not to mention people from the mainland here. Although it is a created identity, it is a person from another place.

That’s why it’s my own will to be here. In other words, quitting is also his will.

“The reason you came here was because you were curious and wanted to teach, wasn’t it?”

“That’s right. But not everyone was curious. I just wondered what kind of person a true warrior was. And I just wanted to teach him. That’s it.”

“Still, wouldn’t it be nice to meet more candidates? There is no reason to focus only on Miss Enlil. Wouldn’t it be nice to see the person coming this time and make a decision?”

I don’t mean to give up on Enlil, she will still be at the academy as a hero.

Her All she asks now is to focus on the other side a little more than her.

Instructor Edmund tried to persuade Leone somehow by explaining that.

Of course, it was a persuasion that would not work for Leon, who had already made his choice.

“The reason I am doing this right now is that I recognized the efficiency of the mana training method. If so, I have more options. So let me be clear. The person I need to focus on teaching right now is Enlil, she.”

Instructor Edmund presses down on his temple as if he has a headache.

Leon, who was looking at that scene, decided to come up with a negotiation plan.

“Instead of that. It’s not that I won’t take on a person from that combat priesthood at all.”

“… What do you mean?”

“I will teach him how to practice mana, that’s what I mean.”

If you unconditionally reject something, of course there is a big antipathy that comes back.

I don’t want that. I hope it will be resolved properly and amicably.

And Chief Instructor Edmund has the social position to make that possible.

“It will be busy and hard, but I will do it. While teaching Miss Enlil as much as possible, I will teach the candidate at a similar level.”

“….”

From noble mtl dot com

Actually, Chief Instructor Edmund probably knows.

That Enlil, who had been stagnant for a while, has changed a little this time.

If you do well, you can use your failures as a stepping stone to make a leap forward.

And finally, we can bring peace to this land again.

But I know that it may seem like a limit, not a possibility.

I should have come to the conclusion that I should respect the judgment from above and focus on the candidate for now.

Enlil could come back alive again, but he might not be a candidate.

“I can’t help it. After all, only Instructor Leon knows how to practice mana.”

“Thank you for your understanding.”

“For now, I will deliver it like that. This instructor still judges Miss Enlil’s chances are greater. That’s why, while focusing on Miss Enlil, he said he would give me the minimum amount of mana practice training.”

I’m glad. If you didn’t cooperate, wouldn’t you have almost visited the homes of the superiors?

Of course, with our magical friends who will be as gentle as sheep in front of their master.

“Rather than that, Instructor Leone.”

I’m sure I’ve finished my business, but I’m trying to leave the room without any regrets.

Instructor Edmund, who had been tapping the table, continued.

“You have great expectations from Miss Enlil.”

“Well, you came back nine times from the tower where no one ever came back alive.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. And the pace of learning is very fast.”

Instructor Edmund gave the answer, “Is that the case this time too?”

Rion, who had a strange feeling there, looked at him without saying a word.

It means to say something without going round and round when you think you have something to say.

“Instructor Leone. All is well, but personal feelings should be excluded.”

“… Yes?”

What is that guy talking about? Personal feelings? Exclusion?

“Sometimes that happens. Instructors have no choice but to keep a close distance from the cadets. Because the human mind is completely unknown, sometimes it flows in completely unexpected directions.”

“Chief Instructor?”

“It can be good sometimes, but it will only end up hurting later.”

“….”

“Ah. This is an advice for you in case you do. Don’t take it to heart too much.”

Rion, who had been staring at him blankly, turned and left the chief instructor’s office.

Is that bastard really crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?

*

A new hero candidate who is secretly expecting from above.

From the ‘Battle Priests’ who were chosen by the will of light located in the church.

For some reason, they say they are hiding as much information as possible.

So even at the academy, only a handful of people knew of its existence.

At first neither Enlil nor the reason nor any news was heard.

At least because she is a warrior, and because she is the only person alive in the tower.

Those who considered themselves hopeful and helped secretly delivered the news.

‘The first warrior candidate to come out of the combat priesthood, I’m sure she’s a saint.’

Until now, there has never been a candidate for a warrior in the combat priesthood.

They themselves hoped to fight the beasts at the lowest level.

Because he was in charge of one of the forces against the monsters, neither the Empire nor the Church were reluctant.

Above all, the holy relic that selects the warriors to head to the tower did not choose them.

But this time it was different. Her holy relic called her directly.

Is it because she was selected as a saint, or is there something else?

The one thing that is certain is that a saintess from the combat priests is coming.

A saint. One of the two wings of the Helios Church that has established itself in the Empire.

Originally, a person who would only focus on healing with divine power, with no fighting ability.

A symbol that strengthens the church’s position and keeps it from losing hope.

But this time the saintess is different. She is from the combat priesthood.

From what I’ve heard, it’s said that his skills against monsters are better than those of most hunters.

No, did you just say that skill is not the problem, it’s just overwhelmingly strong?

She said, ‘I’m getting her expectations. She is the first saint to emerge from the combat priesthood. And the first warrior candidate. Even if a saint or a saintess has ever been a candidate for a hero, it is the only one among the combat priests.’

I wonder if it’s okay to skip the academy because I have a lot of field experience.

Don’t waste time and send it to the tower to engrave God’s will in that chaotic place.

Well, such an opinion came out of nowhere, the person who delivered the news said so.

“Yes, but the instructor named Leon said that the hero was of great help. It seems that you have heard that story too. She said that she was interested in the mana practice technique and that if she told her saintess, her chances would be higher.”

I see. So it was. So, you said you were going to attach Instructor Leon.

If you listen up to this point, even Enlil can fully understand these parts.

If they saw the limit, not the possibility, and thought of someone else.

It is only natural to have Instructor Leone, who proposed the mana practice method, be there.

There must have been no particular reason for Leon to oppose it.

Teach me once, and if you don’t like it, you can take Enlil again.

‘Yes. Then it was okay….’

Enlil recalled what Chief Instructor Edmund had just said.

“Miss Enlil’s exclusive instructor will continue to be Instructor Leon.”

For a moment, I thought I heard it wrong. Because that’s something I didn’t expect at all.

So when I asked back what he was talking about without knowing it, the chief instructor spat out and said.

“It seems that Miss Enlil is the only hero for Instructor Leone.”

He climbed the tower nine times, but was never able to defeat his master.

He comes back alive, but that’s all, a hero who lacks something.

That was Enlil himself. He thought so unconsciously himself…

“Enlil.”

I looked up and saw Leon approaching from the front.

Seeing this, Enlil involuntarily opened his mouth.

“Why… that….”

You believed in me more than me, so I should say thank you.

Why is he asking questions instead of greetings?

I was about to change my words right away, bruising myself.

“Why did you do that? Because I am unconditionally you I believe in you. For me, the hero is you.”

With a gentle smile on his face, he rubs his shoulder.

“Only you are my warrior. Enlil.”
