How to Live As a Returnee Munchkin Swordsman

27 – Attendance, I will call (1)

All of the investigations in the red forest area were to be kept secret for the time being.

There was no particular grandiose reason, but it was to make an official announcement after collecting the contents of the investigation by the Royal Knights of Clepe.

Because of this, despite the fact that the investigation was personally conducted by the Duke of Crowfly, after the end, nothing much was said about it.

‘… Instead, another problem arose.’

However, interest in such a large-scale investigation cannot easily fade.

Reporters who write down anything as long as they can sell copies have somehow succeeded in generating the number of cases in this investigation.

That is the way to focus on ‘characters’ rather than ‘events’.

Rumors about the heroes who participated in the investigation were to spread even more stimulatingly.

Of course, in this case it wasn’t a rumor, it was the truth.

-Edgar Mullique proves it again! This time, it’s a high-level monster hellhound.

– ‘Edgar’s 4th Hero Theory’ revealed again on the surface… What is real?

– Mage Tower collaborators, in unison, “It was a tremendous level of water magic.”

-The birth of a magic swordsman? What is Edgar Mullik’s true ability… .

“… Where the hell are you and what are you doing?”

Again, my name was featured in the ＜Kingdom Newspaper＞ and various newspapers.

Seeing this, Ray let out a short sigh.

After I became an instructor, the medium of contact with me changed from the family reception room to the swordsmanship department’s laboratory.

And these days, the explosive interest towards me.

This naturally leads to a flood of phone calls to the lab.

… In other words, only Ray, who is in charge of the currency crystal ball, is dying.

In an embarrassing situation, I cleared my throat and apologized.

“Hmmm. I’m sorry, Ray. I happened to… .”

“The reporters of the Kingdom newspaper were really nasty. I have been requesting without ceasing to be able to interview Edgar at least once. Thanks to that, the laboratory’s currency crystal ball never had a day off.”

“They’re f*cking bastards! I immediately contact the swordsmanship department administration and block their coordinates… .”

“It’s okay if you don’t have to force me to feel better.”

“It is a misunderstanding.”

Does Ray have an inevitability like ＜Eye of the Mind＞?

Sometimes it’s scary because he seems to know my heart too well.

Anyway, we put aside the much-talked-about exploration of the ‘red forest area’ and spurred preparations for the opening of the new semester and new lectures.

“This is the list of students who applied for ＜Balut Sword＞ this semester.”

Ray pulled out a stack of papers folded into a small wooden board and handed it to me.

A brief history of the students who will attend my lecture in earnest.

But from the first chapter, I tilt my head.

“The garden… 42 people?”

The number of students, which was 30 at the beginning of the lecture, had increased to 42 before anyone knew it.

Although he was taken aback by the strange phenomenon, Ray calmly affirmed it.

“That’s right.”

“I think there must have been 30 students when the course registration ended last time.”

“There were many requests to open additional seats, so they were filled naturally. That, too, is a filtered and filtered number.”

… While we were in the red forest area, what the hell happened?

Shaking my head a few times, I asked her again.

“ray. I don’t know all the department regulations, but isn’t it easy to open just because I want to open an extra seat?”

The quota is the maximum number of students who can attend a given lecture.

The number is determined by agreement with the administrative office from the time the lecture is opened at the beginning of the semester, and no matter how popular the lecture is, the number of seats will be maintained unless there is a special reason.

For example, Instructor Akina’s major course called ＜Basic swordsmanship and foot swords＞ has a capacity of 100 students, and it is a lecture that enjoys great popularity every year and attracts many students.

However, additional seats are not open at all.

This is because lecture efficiency decreases when the number of students exceeds 100, and it is difficult to find a place suitable for the number of lecturers.

Above all, since Akina did not dare to accept an excess number, the capacity of ＜Basic Swordsmanship and Foot Sword＞ was always 100.

“A number of reasons were taken into account. First of all, 30 and 50 students are equally classified as small and medium-sized lectures, so there is no big difference even if there is a change. And the reason why Edgar set the initial quota at 30 is because he expected that the number of students would be small.”

Ray calmly explained the reasons that were sufficiently convincing.

Of course, there are still unanswered questions.

“Wouldn’t the administration have easily allowed it?”

“Let’s check the student list for that.”

At Ray’s words, I immediately turned my gaze to the list documents.

＜Balut Sword (New)＞

-Instructor: Edgar Mulick (Instructor)

*Currently enrolled cadets

1. Myren Tylope

2. Luna Brichel

3. Sophie Quinia

…

…

39. Kayla

40. Shawn Encires

41. Eileen Clover

42. Reese

Except for one or two familiar names, all of them were names of cadets I hadn’t seen before.

The documents on the back of the list also contained brief hero information.

As an instructor, I needed to know roughly how talented the cadets were.

However, there was no reason to look into hero information.

Looking only at the names on the list, I was able to find a sense of heterogeneity in my lectures.

“All… nobility?”

“That’s right.”

Kayla, whom I personally selected as a student.

And except for a few commoners who don’t exceed 5-.

From noble mtl dot com

The hero cadets who signed up for my course…

They were all ‘noble heroes’ with families behind them.

I immediately found out why the administration easily allowed additional seats.

and.

“… ah.”

At the same time, I felt

This first semester, will never go smoothly.

* * *

“Then, let’s go!”

A wizard hero greeted the people in the back.

Long blue hair and a cute look.

And luxuriously dressed clothes, and a unique pattern located near the chest.

Just by looking at her outstanding appearance, it was easy to see that she was a descendant of Countess Tilope, a Mado family.

Then, with a face full of pride, she speaks to the party following her.

“Did I tell you, sister? He is such a great person.”

As soon as he gets away from his family, he brings up the same story again.

Tanelli Tilope looked at her sister like that with disdain.

“Miren. Have you ever met that Instructor Edgar Mullick?”

“no? Of course it’s a first look. It’s still before school starts.”

“… But talking is like a close friend. How many times have you been talking about that already?”

“My sister doubted it at first~ She said that the instructor seemed strange.”

“… That’s right.”

It was true.

Tanelli, who was not very interested when Mirenne declared that she would definitely listen to Instructor Edgar’s lecture, returned to her family after talking with her best friend, Jane Mullick, and actively discouraged her younger brother.

Isn’t it?

When he was a cadet at the military academy, he was a dishonorable aristocrat who made a name for himself as trash + idiot, and even his older sister, Jane, hated him and did not treat him as a younger brother.

How bad is it if you have bad personality?

I can’t help but think that way.

Even if he had proven his skills by hunting 15 mid-level monsters, Kelleil, in fact, there were many instructors who were stronger and had better results than him in the swordsmanship department.

There was no need to listen to the new instructor’s lecture while looking for it.

‘… It must have been.’

At the moment when he used this as an excuse to actively dissuade his younger brother, another incident occurred in the kingdom.

Exploration of the ‘Red Forest’ by the Royal Knights of Clepe.

Edgar Mulick, who entered here as a reference, proved his skills once more.

Even against a high-level monster, Hellhound.

With all the acknowledgment of the knights and allied heroes-.

– He’s a monster. He easily catches hellhounds with his mysterious swordsmanship, and even uses some kind of water magic. this… It seems that even a magic swordsman was born in the kingdom.

Among them was a senior researcher of Tanelli, a hero belonging to Tristan Magic Tower.

When he returned to the Mage Tower and gave the previous explanation-.

Tanelli had to admit it then.

Edgar Mulick.

That the second son of the Great Magician family, who suddenly tried to become a ＜swordsman＞, is a hero with certain skills when it comes to swordsmanship.

That he won the top spot in the instructor selection was not by chance or because of his family’s reputation.

“To see the fourth crossroads bloom at that age! Isn’t this amazing? Since we come from the same noble family, we have a lot of sympathy, so I think he will teach very well. Ha- I’m really, really looking forward to it.”

Edgar Mullick was already known to the public as a 4th hero.

Miren also put his hands together and looked expectant, as if he absolutely believed that fact.

For some reason, Tanelli was dissatisfied with that and took out the last card.

“If you are a 4th level hero and come from a prestigious noble family, you also have instructor Akina. “Why do you bother listening to instructor Edgar?”

“sister! “That’s different!”

Miren’s expression changes when he criticizes Edgar even a little.

She said, placing her hands on her waist.

“Instructor Akina is a noble from an orthodox swordsmanship family. It’s on a different level from Instructor Edgar, who became a swordsman hero like a mutant from a magic family. Besides, I am also a swordsman hero born from a magic family.”

“ah.”

That was the reason why Miren had absolutely followed Edgar all this time.

The swordsman hero from a magic family is one of the most powerful men in the kingdom.

If she takes lessons from him directly, wouldn’t she, who is in the same situation, experience a big change?

It was a course application filled with some kind of expectation.

And finally.

“Instructor Akina is a woman. “Ho, ho, ho.”

Miren spoke in a slightly lowered voice as if the reason for this time was embarrassment.

Silence flows through the shallow laughter.

Tanelli looked at her with dead eyes.

Edgar Mullique is a hero famous for his handsomeness among nobles.

‘… After all, it’s because you’re handsome.’

Moment.

Tanelli’s efforts to understand his brother felt like an illusion.
