The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 76
Chapter 76 Southern Training Center (2)
The next day.
Roman entered the Southern Training Center as scheduled.
It was a basic process required before entering the battlefield, and several nobles, including Roman, appeared leading their own soldiers.
The expression of the nobles was not good at all.
None of them voluntarily enlisted.
If he had been that loyal to his country, he would have headed to the Western Front, where he really needed help, rather than the expedient of falling to the Southern Front.
Let the word of mouth begin.
The person who appeared to be the commander stepped forward.
“I am Viscount Bale Frank, commander of the Southern Training Center. As everyone knows, the Southern Training Center is a place where basic military training is taught to soldiers deployed on the southern front. You guys will receive three weeks of training here and be assigned to the reserve unit, where you will spend the rest of your service.”
Basic training and reserve formation.
The process is the same in both West and South.
but.
The southern troops have no chance to go to the battlefield since they were organized into reserve units, while the western troops are virtually meaningless as reserve units due to occasional battles.
So the word went around among the soldiers.
They say that a soldier who met his master well and went to the south will come back fattening up, but a soldier who left for the west will not be able to return safely.
pole to pole.
I could tell just by looking at the atmosphere at the entrance ceremony.
Far from feeling the spleen of the battlefield, the nobles let out a yawn as if Viscount Bale’s words were boring.
“There is a fact to keep in mind while staying at the Southern Training Center. No matter what status you were in before enlisting, here you are just soldiers fulfilling your military service. Anyone who violates the rules of the Southern Training Center and acts without permission will be sent to the Western Front as punishment.”
That was a really funny thing.
Punishment means being assigned to the Western Front.
The absurd fact was that the threat worked.
from the southern front to the western front.
It was something that ordinary aristocrats didn’t like even imagining, and that’s why they seemed to be a little focused on word of mouth.
The speech was short.
When he had finished speaking, Viscount Bale dismissed his troops.
“Let everyone unpack at their assigned lodgings. Schedules related to training will be notified separately in the evening.”
Admission.
From now on, he was assigned to the Southern Training Center.
Roman was about to move to his quarters like everyone else, but a soldier approached and quietly talked to him.
“The commander wants to see you separately.”
Viscount Bale.
Roman was not alone in the idea that they seemed to meet eyes throughout the speech.
* * *
Enter the command room.
The first thing that greeted Roman was the bright smile of Viscount Bale, which was not found at the entrance ceremony.
“Welcome! Wasn’t the road to the South difficult?”
“yes. There was no problem.”
“Sit down for now.”
drooling.
Viscount Vail handed me a chair.
It was kind enough to be awkward.
It was the first time Roman had ever seen Viscount Vail, but Viscount Vail acted as if it was an old relationship.
“Do you know how excited I was when I heard that you were being deployed to the southern front? Roman Dmitri Cairo Kingdom’s youngest ranker! kyaa I was all excited when I heard the news that a sleeping dragon was born in Dmitri. Achacha coffee is okay?”
“yes.”
Viscount Bale made coffee while humming.
It was usually a soldier’s job.
Still, he moved himself and made a cup of coffee for himself and Roman to drink.
The command room was soon filled with the sweet aroma of coffee.
He took a sip of coffee and put it down in front of Roman with a soft smile.
widely.
“Listen while drinking. In fact, the reason I called you aside is to ask you one thing. Rumor has it that Marquis Benedict worked hard to get you deployed on the southern front. Is that really true?”
The one-sided favor had a purpose.
like it’s not a big deal.
Viscount Bale was calmly drinking coffee, but his eyes were burning with desire as he looked at Roman.
I’m not sure what the purpose of the question was.
Roman, who pursues neutrality, had no reason to hide.
“yes. I didn’t ask for it, but I heard that Marquis Benedict did it.”
“okay?”
Viscount Bale’s expression brightened.
In fact, he had confirmed the truth to some extent.
Still, he wanted to check it himself through Roman, and when he got the answer he wanted, he couldn’t hide his joy.
“That’s right. I will tell you my main point directly. I want to look good to Marquis Benedict. Southern Training Center isn’t such a bad place, but it doesn’t compare to the luxury life in central government. That’s why Marquis Benedict will take care of you as much as possible while staying at the Southern Training Center. I don’t mean to ask for much. Only one. Later, when I met Marquis Benedict, I heard that a man named Viscount Bale Frank took care of me at the Southern Training Center. All you have to do is say that.”
It was a fairly blatant statement.
Bale Frank.
Like Dmitri, he came from the outskirts and had grand dreams of entering the central government someday.
however.
In the meantime, no matter how hard I tried, there was no way.
The Southern Training Center is a position that receives requests from numerous aristocratic families, but Marquis Benedict was not in a position that could be tampered with at such a level.
core of central government.
It was an area that Viscount Bale could not dare to cross, and he needed a cheat key to establish a link with the central government.
as soon as.
A cheat key like Roman Dmitri.
‘Marquis Benedict is putting a lot of effort into Roman Dmitri. Someday, if Roman Dmitri swears allegiance to Marquis Benedict, he’ll be able to lead me to the central government after having a relationship at the Southern Training Center. This is your chance. A golden opportunity to enter the central government, which is not often found.’
I had no intention of hiding my purpose.
It was a deal.
A deal that only requires one word in exchange for a comfortable life at the Southern Training Center.
Southern Front.
It was a place where even the commander had rotted away.
Despite openly requesting an improper request, Viscount Bale’s face showed no shame.
‘It’s fun.’
kept a smile
Marquis Benedict and Viscount Vale.
It wasn’t something I would spend the rest of my life with.
But at least now that I was accepting their favor, there was no reason to refuse to give it to me.
Roman said.
“All right. I will not forget the kindness of the Viscount.”
Just like that.
Roman kept the line and accepted the favor of the other party.
* * *
Roman left the command room.
I was about to go back to my dorm, but on the way I met a familiar face.
“Here you are!”
It was Henry Albert.
The person who made a fuss at the inn.
Unlike when he hurriedly ran away, Henry Albert said with a spirited face.
“I mean, thinking about it. No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think I did anything wrong enough to apologize to you. To put it bluntly, Dmitri is only a baron family on the periphery. Does it make sense for me, the second son of the Albert family, to use the inn and rush to fight because I don’t like it?”
last night.
Henry couldn’t sleep at night.
I was so angry.
He grew up as a golden jade in his family, but he couldn’t accept the fact that he was humiliated by a baron’s family.
The fact that Roman was the youngest ranker didn’t matter.
From what I heard, the Dmitri family was from a humble family of commoner origins, and unlike himself, they could not be called true aristocrats.
My stomach was boiling all night.
waited for tomorrow
He thought that if he entered the southern training center, even Roman would not be able to treat him carelessly.
At Roman’s indifferent reaction.
Henry huffed and pushed.
“You touched the wrong person. Do you know which family my mother originally came from? It’s the Frank family. Now you know what mistakes you made. Yes, Viscount Bale Frank, the commander of the Southern Training Center, is my maternal uncle! So, I apologize even now. If you say you did something wrong in front of my soldiers, don’t tell your uncle about it.”
background he believes in.
Its true identity was Viscount Vail.
Even though Roman Dmitri is the youngest ranker, he cannot ignore Commander Baek since he entered the Southern Training Center.
Henry Albert was proud.
As much as this time.
I was sure it was my victory.
however.
“so?”
“… huh?”
“What are you saying because your uncle is the commander of the Southern Training Center?”
“Can’t you understand your situation? My uncle said it clearly at the entrance ceremony. Those who violate the rules of the entrance ceremony will be sent to the Western Front. The discipline is not simply a soldier’s duty. The guys who strayed from their uncle’s eyes. For example, guys like you are included in that range!”
It was embarrassing.
Even knowing the identity of his maternal uncle, he reacted confidently.
A little bit of cold sweat flowed down.
Thinking that Roman might draw his sword again, he quietly backed away.
“You don’t know what you’re going to face if you go to the western front. Even if you’re a 3-star aura swordsman, dying is only an instant. don’t move here and wait I’ll call my uncle, so let’s see if he’s as confident then as he is now.”
One step back for two steps forward.
Until then.
Henry Albert firmly believed that his uncle would solve all his problems.
* * *
“Uncle!”
to the arrival of Henry.
Viscount Bale smiled broadly.
“Hey, is your nephew here?”
Henry Albert.
To the general public, he might be a careless piece of trash, but to Viscount Bale, he was a lovely nephew that wouldn’t hurt even if he put it in his eyes.
In particular, she closely resembles Henry’s mother, Viscount Vale’s younger sister.
His brown hair and humorous appearance made honey water drip from Viscount Bale’s eyes as he looked at Henry.
“But why is my nephew so sad?”
behindhand.
I checked Henry’s expression.
At Viscount Bale’s question, Henry expressed his sadness as if he had waited.
“uncle. What would your uncle do if my life was threatened by someone from a baron?”
“what?! Which son of a bitch threatened you?”
Jump up.
Viscount Bale kicked off his seat.
A son who threatened his beautiful nephew.
There was no need for further explanation.
He picked up the scabbard hanging on the wall with a reddened face and said urgently to Henry.
“Take that motherfucker right now. How dare you touch my nephew at Southern Training Center. This uncle will definitely trample on you.”
“really?!”
Henry’s expression brightened.
If the uncle steps out directly.
This was an over issue.
Isn’t the commander’s power absolute now that he is enlisted in the Southern Training Center?
I hurried my steps.
Thinking that Roman might have escaped, Henry arrived at the place where Roman was before Viscount Bale.
“That guy.”
Point your finger at your opponent.
Roman Dmitry.
The opponent stupidly did not run away.
Seeing that he was really waiting because he had told him to wait, Henry slightly raised the corner of his mouth with a triumphant face.
Viscount Vail arrived late.
Moment.
His expression hardened.
I closed my eyes once and opened them.
I looked at Henry and Roman’s faces alternately.
He wanted to deny the fact that the son of a bitch was Roman, but there was no one other than Roman at the place he arrived.
and.
Henry’s expression seemed to want to be punished right away.
Viscount Bale felt dizzy for a moment.
‘This crazy bastard is trying to get in my way.’
Judgment was quick.
before Henry could speak.
Viscount Bale’s large palm slapped Henry’s cheek.
Jab-!
cheerful sound.
Henry’s face, which had been rising in spirit, turned around.
