The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 640
Chapter 640
Anna said nothing and told her to leave, but no one can go back from the battlefield without any reason.
Permission cannot be obtained unless it is in the case of Ludwig, who was seriously injured beyond repair. If you are forced to leave, it is, of course, desertion.
Anna just told Scarlett that she shouldn’t be here without even explaining the proper reason.
Fortunately, Scarlett was well aware that Anna was not a bad person no matter how gloomy and dark she was.
Anna couldn’t have said that without any reason.
That’s why Scarlett immediately spoke to Miss Mustang, who was her teacher and now the military officer in charge.
It’s so hard and painful that I want to quit everything now.
to be sent to the temple.
If there are more on the battlefield, it seems like there will be an accident. I am a bomb that only explodes on our side.
Scarlett hadn’t mentioned anything like that until the very end.
Why Anna is like that.
There must be a reason you never told Cristina.
There must be a reason for Anna’s desperate eyes.
Mustang, of course, couldn’t help but panic.
She couldn’t help but be surprised when Scarlett, who had been doing her job silently without complaining, suddenly asked to be let go, saying she was tired.
Literally, it was no different than ding-kang.
In an army at war, if a soldier begged to be sent home, how would that work? In fact, there are countless soldiers who appeal to that kind of heart.
And if they can go home as longed for, the Allies will not be able to sustain it.
Some people want to stay because of the food they eat in the military, but those who have experienced the fear of death inevitably want to quit everything.
That’s why Scarlett shouldn’t be able to go back by saying that she wanted to be let go for no reason.
But the important thing is that Scarlett is not an ordinary student.
As a member of the Temple Royal class, he has accumulated many specialties that are incomparable to ordinary soldiers.
And Miss Mustang misunderstood Scarlett.
I’ve been doing well in silence until now, but everyone’s heart is hard and hard.
Even though I didn’t express it, my heart hurt so much that I guessed that it would eventually explode like this.
‘Yeah, you’ve had a lot of trouble so far, Scarlett. I’ll tell the superiors well. I have work done so far, so I can go back and rest. Leave the rest to the rest. don’t feel guilty you’ve done enough You’ve had a lot of trouble so far.’
‘teacher… … .’
That’s why Miss Mustang comforted Scarlett with those words.
It was unavoidable that Scarlett burst into tears out of nowhere in the arms of Mr. Mustang, who warmly hugged her even though she had a proper reason, but instead of telling her that she wanted to go back suddenly.
So in the end.
Scarlett was able to return to the ecliptic gradium through the warp spot without explaining the proper reason.
That’s why I couldn’t even say good-bye to my friends.
Anna’s words only.
Say nothing and go back quickly.
It was because I believed that the words had meaning.
* * *
Originally, the return of a soldier from the military would not be such a big deal.
However, in the royal class, which has a small number overall, someone’s vacant seat suddenly hits you.
That’s why there was no choice but to make a fuss when Scarlett, who had performed her duties well and seemed to have no problems, left without saying anything.
Time for troops on the march to stop and have a break for a meal.
“Scarlett is back? suddenly?”
Lanian Sesor tilted his head when he heard the story from Kono Lint while eating biscuits.
“I didn’t see it, so I wondered if something had happened, but they said they had returned.”
Kono Lint was the first to notice that Scarlett wasn’t there because she was curious about everything that was going on around her.
“What is going on?”
“well? don’t know He doesn’t talk, so you can keep it inside.”
Erhi, who could never be on good terms with Scarlett because of the remnants of the past, also didn’t look good.
Both crossed the line too far to talk about bullying at one time. Both of them had become very different people from the past.
But the old guilt and remnants don’t go away.
Erhi ate the biscuits with a hard expression on the news of Scarlett’s evacuation to the rear.
Since it was a break during the march, they were eating preserved food in the open field without a restaurant barracks, so everyone was sitting huddled together.
“I thought it was painful, but if it’s difficult even for priests to use their hands, isn’t it a serious problem? If it’s enough to return to the ecliptic… … .”
Cristina sighed, remembering that Scarlett looked disfigured the day before.
It is understandable that Scarlett has returned if it is impossible to heal even with the holy power of the priests.
Anna quietly ate the bread in silence, without adding or adding anything to it.
As for people, there aren’t that many anymore.
Ludwig and Ellen didn’t appear at the table from a certain point in order to have a separate meal.
Heinrich moves more often with Kernstadt these days.
In the case of Ivia, seeing her face is the hardest compared to other people because she acts as a messenger for the headquarters.
That’s why most of the 2nd year Royal Class graduates were left out.
I have to say Louis Anna Cristina Adelia Kono Lint Erhi Kaier Cliffman Ranian Sesor.
There were only 22 of them in class AB, but now there were only this much left.
“Where are you sick? Is he?”
Christina nodded at Lind’s question.
“It didn’t seem serious, so I gave you a tonic, but didn’t it work?”
Anna tried to silence Scarlett.
And in fact, Scarlett followed Anna’s words exactly as she couldn’t understand.
But what a pity.
Scarlett only talked about the archduke’s golem, not who took her to the archduke’s camp.
“hmm? Didn’t you come back sick? You won’t have to worry about that.”
So, Anna did not know that the secret would be kept only if Adelia was also silenced.
Anna’s eyes widen at Adelia’s sudden words. Anna looks at Adelia with desperate eyes.
But I can’t say anything with my eyes.
“Isn’t it sick? Then what is it?”
“Oh, that’s actually… … .”
Anna had no choice but to bite her lip and watch Adelia open her mouth.
After Adelia had explained the whole thing, Cristina’s eyes widened.
So did the others.
Scarlet’s power, which was an immune ability, can neutralize others.
So, if you think about it a little more, everyone couldn’t help but panic when they learned that Scarlett could even inadvertently incapacitate the Titans.
An ability that is rather dangerous to allies.
That’s why Scarlett had no choice but to go back in a hurry.
“That’s why I joined the march today to see if Scarlett really returned.”
all agree
It wasn’t because I was sick, but if it was that reason, I couldn’t help it.
Louis, too, was listening to the story with a sense of dismay.
However, Christina’s reaction was a little different.
“ah… … . I see… … ?”
It’s like discovering something.
It’s like confirming something.
Adelia didn’t know anything, but Christina’s eyes couldn’t help but be creepy.
Cristina looks away from Adelia with a meaningful smile.
At the end of that line of sight was Anna.
“When I said something secret… … .”
Anna was trembling with her gaze down. Louis Ancton was also staring blankly at it.
“A secret story? what is that?”
At Adelia’s question, Cristina smiled.
“No, there is such a thing.”
“… … .”
Adelia felt a strange sense of incongruity in his appearance, but she couldn’t figure out the identity of the sense of incongruity.
* * *
Moments later.
Cristina was sitting on a rock just before the army left.
Louis was speechless at this situation, and Anna stood in front of Cristina.
“Christina I… … . It’s not like that… … .”
“Something like that?”
Christina tilts her head.
“Did you deliberately hide something we needed to know?”
Anna had no answer to Christina’s words.
“Did you think I would do something bad to Scarlett if I knew that? Is that why you were just trembling?”
At Christina’s direct words, Anna flinched and shuddered even more. Cristina rises from a rock and approaches Anna, who is bowing her head.
In front of the bowed Anna, Cristina bowed her head even wider and forced her gaze with Anna, who was lowering her eyes.
“I can’t help that you treat me like a madman, but you know I didn’t do all this alone, right?”
Cristina whispered as she looked at Anna who tightly closed her eyes.
“I don’t know if it’s strange that a person who goes crazy after doing something crazy, or if it’s strange that someone who does something crazy and acts like he hasn’t done anything yet. Anna.”
Immortals made it together.
It was also decided to join hands with the Black Order.
“You don’t mean to say you want to stop now, do you? I’m not here to say I want to quit… … ?”
“… … .”
“Why do you look like you’re trying to pretend you’re not related these days… … ?”
“I am… … . Christina… … .”
“Maybe that’s the worst… … ?”
Louis pulls Anna, who is about to burst into tears, away from Cristina, pulling her towards him.
“stop. Even if it doesn’t… … . You must have had an idea.”
“Why do you think I’m going to do something bad to Scarlett if I find out about this? Because Scarlett can neutralize the Immortal?”
Just facing the anger, malice, and madness in those eyes made Louis’ heart feel like it was rattling.
“You didn’t mean Christina that way.”
“… … .”
“calm down. We need to calm down a bit.”
Cristina gritted her teeth at Louis’ serious and restrained words.
Like trying to suppress something.
As if you were trying to forcefully press something that couldn’t be pressed.
After some time, Christina lets out a breath.
“… … yeah i guess i was bad Sorry.”
“Sorry Cristina I… … . I don’t think it will work if more people know… … .”
But Anna pinned Scarlett down and nailed it, saying that she should never know as much as Christina.
Knowing what she was lying about, Anna couldn’t help but shake her fingertips.
“I have no intention of hurting Scarlett. It can’t be. Then what I’m doing doesn’t make sense. You can’t do that if you hurt Scarlett or hurt a friend while doing what you started to do to save Ashir. then that’s weird of course.”
You might be able to save your friend.
These are the hands I held with that thought and the things I have done.
If you end up hurting your friend by swallowing it up, it’s no different than denying everything.
Cristina comes to her senses and Anna finally starts to tremble and shed tears.
“Sorry, I was worried… … . so very scary… … . I’m so anxious… … .”
Cristina cautiously approached Anna and began to read.
“I know. That I was a little tasteless. No, not a little bit, but quite a lot. Admit it. Admit it. I don’t mean to say I’m sane either. of course. I can’t help that you worry so much. huh. huh.”
“Black… … . Hehe… … . ugh… … .”
“I admit it. I must have been weak I’m not as strong as you guys who can still think properly after going through all this. Because I’m weak… … . It’s because you’re weak.”
They say I went crazy because I was weak.
Christina knows that Louis and Anna can still be this rational because they are stronger people than she is.
Weak and broken
I was weak and went crazy.
What was bearable for some was unbearable for him.
The truth that someone could endure was the truth that he could not admit.
But being crazy doesn’t necessarily mean being irrational.
“however… … . you know There are traitors in the Allied Forces.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“The Knights Templar passed over a few months ago, but didn’t the other side pass over? That would be too optimistic.”
Through Ludwig, they know that the Five Major Churches have become the Demon King’s.
At this point, several months after that, the demon king must have increased the number of traitors.
maybe a third.
maybe half
or not. everyone except them.
You may have already become an enemy.
“We’re not the only ones who know that Scarlett has that kind of power. There will inevitably be guys who will try to use Scarlett somehow. And the Demon King knows Scarlett’s ability in the first place.”
That Scarlett’s abilities could be used that way.
In the first place, Reinhardt knew about Scarlett’s abilities.
But what if you found out that its power can also be used to neutralize Immortals the same way it neutralizes golems?
“I didn’t mean to hurt Scarlett.”
“… … .”
“We have to protect Scarlett.”
The Demon King will try to use Scarlett.
so you have to keep
“That’s why I was so angry. It’s not because I hate you.”
Anna struggles to wipe away her tears and looks up to meet Christina’s eyes.
I have to protect Scarlett. So to say I’m sorry for saying I’m mad at you for not telling you something important.
“My heart… … . know?”
However, in those eyes, it is difficult to say that it originated from worry about a friend.
Only overly dark and ominous shadows could be seen.
