Helmut: The Forsaken Child - Chapter 213

Helmut
Episode 213
‘What is this bastard doing now? How dare you, Charlotte!’
If this happens, won’t Charlotte’s impression of him worsen?
Leon’s face bulged. He cut off coldly.
“Stop it Charlotte. “I had Helmut do it.”
“This is what I will do.”
Charlotte did not back down. I knew that Leon was trying to gain rank from Helmut.
It wasn’t really my intention to protect Helmut. If Helmut told her to do it, it was the right thing to do.
Helmut responded indifferently.
“They say it’s her job.”
It looked somewhat obnoxious. Leon was about to yell, but when he got his anger under control, he spat out.
“Do you have any thoughts? “How can you let such a small girl do something like that!”
The guys in the swordsmanship department were usually large and had well-developed muscles.
In comparison, it was natural that the woman, Charlotte, looked small and fragile.
Aside from the fact that she is the top first-year student in the swordsmanship department and a swordsman who knows how to use Vis, it feels like she is being asked to do something she cannot do.
Of course, Helmut was free from that feeling.
In the forest of Pahe, even beautiful flowers eat humans.
He knew Charlotte was strong. Beyond what meets the eye.
“What I’m doing is right. Senior, I am not weak. “I can lift a bucket of water.”
Before Helmut could open his mouth, Charlotte cut him off. The look in his eyes was as if he had been insulted.
She quickly carried the water bottle and walked away.
A cold aura spread across Leon’s face as he gritted his teeth at Charlotte’s reaction.
‘Charlotte, could you possibly be that guy?’
That can’t be possible. But doesn’t Helmut’s appearance seem plausible?
Resentment arose. Leon didn’t know much about Charlotte. I just assumed that he came from a high-ranking noble family, based on his surprisingly smooth appearance and personality.
Most women from noble families hone their studies or magic.
How rare is it to be a noble girl who can discuss swords.
Because of that rarity, Leon took an interest in Charlotte. It would definitely be worthwhile to get her hands on it.
I was planning to take this opportunity to approach cautiously, but it was ruined from the start.
Because of that guy named Helmut!
As soon as she disappeared, Leon lashed out harshly.
“Ever since I entered Greta Academy, I have never had to talk to a commoner, so I didn’t know their insignificance! It really seems like a commoner’s idea to hand over one’s work to a woman. “I guess I overestimated you!”
It is true that studying in the same place as commoners is frowned upon, but Leon was at the top of the swordsmanship department.
To begin with, all of the guys swarming around him are nobles.
Naturally, there is no need to reveal discrimination against commoners.
The education of the academy also regulated it.
But even so, the moment a commoner was offended, his consciousness came out.
Any defects that are visible must be addressed.
Leon was faithful to the principles of fighting.
Helmut hung up immediately.
“It seems like Charlotte doesn’t agree with your thoughts.”
“Don’t call her name loose!”
‘What is this?’
Helmut’s frown narrowed. It was as if I was in the middle of a political fight. The problem is that Helmut has no intention of fighting over Charlotte.
Nils, who was worse off, intervened. I just thought that Leon was going a bit too far in talking about commoners.
He was a principled person. But that didn’t mean I wanted to side with Helmut.
“I heard that Charlotte is from Linosa. “Now that we are heading to Rinosa, it doesn’t seem good to entrust such chores to a noble from Rinosa.”
Helmut’s head was slightly tilted.
If you go to Linosa, aren’t you going to stay in a lodging with an attendant anyway?
Those selected for the academy would be treated appropriately.
Until then, there is no problem with doing chores. Because the people of Linosa won’t know.
In any case, Helmut has no intention of doing whatever Leon tells him to do, and Charlotte does not refuse to take over. That was enough.
Helmut cut off coldly.
“Whether she’s from Linosa or not doesn’t matter as long as she does the job.”
If you don’t like it, just reject it. Helmut also planned to say that if Charlotte refused, I wouldn’t do it either.
I was bothered by why this guy named Leon came out like this when he could have just asked me to spar.
And Leon finally did as Helmut thought.
“Okay, I know you don’t understand. “I need to fix your brain!”
Leon got up from his seat. In his hand was a wooden sword.
Was he looking for a reason to beat him up?
‘It may not work out the way I want.’
Helmut looked at him indifferently. It’s boring now to take care of these weak guys.
It was a little uncomfortable. Because you have to control the intensity so that it doesn’t kill you.
Funny enough, Leon seemed confident that he would win.
Even though I’ve never seen their skills before!
He will soon realize that was a huge mistake and which of these Greta Academy recruits is the favorite to win.
But before they could face off, an obstacle appeared. After we had finished talking among ourselves, the professor appeared.
They were heading this way and suddenly stopped when they saw the confrontation between Leon and Helmut.
There was no particular pink air between Instructor Alan and Instructor Patricia during work.
Instructor Alan, sensing an unusual atmosphere, crossed his arms and asked.
“What happened?”
Leon immediately denied it. A smile appeared on his lips as if he had already made it up.
“no. “I was thinking about sparring with my junior, but I don’t think it’s the right time.”
There is nothing to be gained by fighting in front of an instructor. Because what he wanted wasn’t really a sparring match.
Instructor Alan did not ask any more questions. I believe that getting involved in every little fight will have a negative impact.
‘That Helmut guy isn’t aggressive, but strangely enough, he gets into fights.’
Is it because of the cold and intimidating atmosphere?
For some reason, Helmut had a corner that particularly irritated prosecutors.
Ambiguity that cannot be measured. The appearance is close to being soft, but the atmosphere is not, so I want to touch on that contradiction.
Since we cannot judge, we have to touch it to make a judgment.
That’s why Helmut was especially controversial in Bashor.
Instructor Patricia asked, looking around.
“What about Charlotte?”
“I went to get water.”
In fact, we brought plenty of water to drink, and there was a wizard there too.
There was no particular lack of water. Instructor Alan frowned.
“Water… Well, since she’s a first year, I guess she ordered it from Charlotte. But you’d better not act alone. This is not Greta Academy, so we don’t know what will happen. Always keep in mind that we travel together. Helmut, go to the water.”
“yes.”
Helmut left willingly.
When I went down to the water’s edge, I saw Charlotte sighing with a bucket full of water in front of her.
His face was filled with worry.
‘Is it too heavy to lift alone?’
Helmut asked, although he thought Charlotte might not be that weak.
“Is it too heavy to lift?”
Charlotte looked back in surprise. Only then did Helmut realize that he had been killing someone.
I wasn’t trying to target anyone, it was just a habit. Especially in a forest like this.
“Senior, you have such a small presence.”
Charlotte looked as if she was embarrassed for being distracted outside, where she could be attacked at any time.
“I can lift it by myself. I was planning to go back soon. I have something to think about for a moment. “You can go and have a look.”
“The instructor said we shouldn’t act alone.”
“…I see. “Then could you please give me a moment?”
Charlotte’s complexion was dark. At first glance, my physical condition is not bad.
This is probably a matter of the heart.
‘Maybe it’s because I made him do the work.’
I didn’t know the exact reason why that would be offensive, but I had something to say.
“It wasn’t the housemaster who ordered you to do it.”
Helmut himself recognized that there was no problem, but looking at the reactions of the other two seniors, he wondered if he had done something strange.
‘I’m not completely used to the human world yet.’
But Charlotte readily nodded.
“I know. Of course, apart from that, it didn’t seem like a good idea to make him run unnecessary errands for the sake of ranking.”
It’s just her nature to add insults. Charlotte wasn’t stupid either.
“If I was offended by that, it’s not your fault.”
If it’s not Helmut’s fault, it’s Leon’s fault. The conclusion was clear.
There was silence for a moment. In a place where only the sound of a babbling stream could be heard, the silence was not particularly noticeable.
Neither of them spoke much. Helmut stood and waited leisurely, and Charlotte was lost in thought as she watched the flowing water.
Then suddenly she raised her head.
“There is one thing I want to ask you, senior.”
“what?”
If it’s about Marguerite Irene, I can’t tell you.
Helmut hasn’t decided what to do yet.
But that wasn’t Charlotte’s intention.
“It’s a minor concern, but I don’t have anyone to ask. It’s just that I thought you would listen without thinking…”
There was a judgment in those words as if you were indifferent, as if you wouldn’t think anything no matter what you heard.
But Helmut was not displeased. Because he is literally indifferent.
“say.”
“You must not tell anyone.”
For a moment, Area passed through my mind.
Are you telling me to keep it a secret from Area as well?
Didn’t I tell you not to talk too much with Charlotte?
But Helmut trusted his intuition. Charlotte is related to him by blood.
He spat out after a moment of contemplation.
“Sure.”
A voice slowly flowed from Charlotte’s mouth.
“What would you do if your brother hated you?”
“I don’t know because I don’t have any brothers.”
Isn’t this a feeling you can only understand once you have a sibling you dislike?
People kill their brothers and parents for power. I don’t know if it’s such a big deal that brothers don’t get along well.
Charlotte seems to care about that fact.
“If they are not brothers, they are called blood relatives. I guess it would be okay to say family. “What would you do if someone who can’t pretend not to know hates you?”
She was worried about Michael.
As I set off for Linosa, my heart became even more anxious.
Michael sent another letter. It was a letter saying that he wanted to see his face as soon as he arrived in Linosa.
I didn’t understand why it suddenly came out like this.
To say that her heart melted after not seeing his face for so long was that the Michael she knew was not that kind of soft-hearted boy.
So I was even more concerned.
