Early moning.

“Baaaa…”

Seoyul stretched out her arms.

I picked up Seoyul with a movement that I was now accustomed to. Seoyul also crawled into my arms, writhing with familiar movements.

I carefully grasped the sensation in my arm with a strange expression.

The weight on my forearm became heavier than before.

Also, the body that can be held in one’s arms has become larger than before.

My limbs grew, and my height also grew. It just grew overall.

There is no need to mobilize the power of observation. Even if an ordinary person looks at it with the naked eye, there is a clear difference.

That’s not all.

After patting Seoyul’s back a few times, he carefully placed her on the ground.

and.

“Woooo…”

Seoyul… stood up on her two legs. Her pure white hair, which almost reached her lower back, fell down beautifully.

The soles of my feet touched the ground and my legs were straight. Although he was shaking slightly, he was able to stand with his legs on the ground.

The baby was crawling until a few days ago.

[and]

[Our Seoyul has stood up?]

“Yes! I’m standing like this!”

[Great!]

He smiled brightly and patted Seoyul’s head with a compliment.

‘Seo, it grows very fast…’

While hiding my embarrassment inside.

The child grows quickly. In particular, babies grow noticeably even after a short period of time.

Seoyul is a fairy. I knew that they grow faster than humans.

When I experienced it myself, I was embarrassed in many ways.

Even if we call it a gap period, it is only about two weeks.

Meanwhile, the baby who had been crawling stood up on its own legs.

This is truly an incredible growth rate.

Although he was shocked by that, he just praised Seoyul for standing upright.

‘What should I do with this…’

I also felt helpless.

Seoyul is growing at an incredible rate.

The body grows.

In that case, it is natural for the mind to move the body to grow as well.

Although I only scratched the surface, I looked into parenting. Since Seoyul was born, I have been devouring parenting knowledge without sleeping.

Although my knowledge is still very poor…

We know that the emotions and experiences a baby experiences in the first few years of life, as well as the bond with their caregivers, are very important for emotional development.

In particular, Seoyul is of a different race and grows quickly.

It is natural that, especially in times like these, we need to be by our side, take care of ourselves, and teach various things…

“Hayul, are you ready? Now it’s time to get out.”

[I’m ready]

This ugly trash guardian was scheduled to be away for about a month.

Elia suddenly opened the door to an empty room and came out, wearing formal clothes rather than civilian clothes or cadet uniforms.

A little different from the neat and clean cadet uniform, it is a dress with many decorations.

…The curves of the body are very prominent, so the impression of luxurious decoration has faded in many ways…

Formal uniforms are issued along with cadet uniforms, and are instructed to be worn only on days when special events are held.

I am also dressed the same way as him.

I swallowed my own sigh and got up.

Seoyul’s expression, which had been smiling brightly, suddenly became pouty.

Her swollen cheeks clearly expressed her dissatisfaction.

“…It’s too much, yo.”

And, unlike usual, my heart sank at the moisture that shimmered in my white eyes.

It felt like my heart was being torn apart. It was a much more shocking sensation than having flesh being torn apart by Aerus’ claws.

[I’m sorry…]

Without realizing it, I knelt down and hugged Seoyul, who was very sad.

Today is the end of the gap period.

It is the day of the school vacation that marks the end of the first semester.

.

.

.

Before going into “…, I would like to say thank you to the cadets who have honed their bodies and minds to become heroes over the past semester.”

The school vacation ceremony was held in a huge auditorium.

The host is the vice president, as was the case at the new student welcome party.

She climbed up onto the stage and was reciting a sermon with the same emotionless face as always.

The vice president’s voice, amplified by a magical device, echoed throughout the auditorium.

What was different from the new student welcome party was that not only freshmen but also other grades were included.

Each grade was divided into sections and sat on chairs.

In the other area, professors and other people were seated, among them Professor Liana and Master.

There are about 600 first-year students, and fewer than that for second-, third-, and fourth-year students. Some of the 3rd and 4th graders do not remain in the city crib due to outside activities.

Of course, there are fewer students than first graders, but there are hundreds of students per grade.

The auditorium was large enough to accommodate such a large number of people and still have some room to spare, but the impression that the surrounding area was crowded could not be erased.

With a new feeling, I used my powers of observation and scanned the faces of the cadets gathered in the auditorium.

There were cadets who were in the same freshman class and encountered each other every day on their way to school, and there was also a main character with whom I had not developed much of a friendship yet.

There were also main characters that I had never met because they were in completely different grades.

Among those people, there were two that I was especially concerned about at the moment.

‘Katsuki Yusei.’

He is a male cadet with hair and eyes like soft moonlight and a sharp expression, and is considered an outstanding prospect in Three Swords.

During the new student welcome party, Hong Yeon-hwa hit him and knocked him unconscious, and after receiving a polite apology, there was not much contact.

At most, we exchange greetings every morning.

‘The Three Swords faction… it was during the first semester vacation that an incident occurred within.’

The Three-Hyung Sword is a faction representing the Japanese region, and the same incident occurred at the Three-Hyung Sword every first semester vacation.

If you get involved well there, you can build good relationships with the forces under his command, including the Three-Hyung Sword.

I couldn’t afford that now.

I thought about giving it to Katsuki Yusei, but I threw it straight into the trash can.

Even though my status was unusual, I never thought that I would be trusted by talking about an incident that never happened.

Even though it was an accident, there weren’t that many casualties. It was resolved on its own even in episodes where the player didn’t intervene, so it should be fine.

And… the other person was Jiyeon Lee.

Brown hair tied back, as always, and light green eyes.

Although his face was expressionless on the outside, it was a face with a subtle sense of boredom.

We used observation in detail and looked at her closely.

The magic power contained in the body. Its nature was so unique that it attracted attention without even thinking about it.

Just as Gyeophwa had fire energy and Changhae had water energy and cold energy, the magic power of Lee Ji-yeon, the manifestation of Taesan, had earth energy.

The unique ability ‘Taesan’ was also observed, but since it was not in full operation, information could not be properly collected.

That was very disappointing.

Taishan’s control over the land. The use of vitality and necromancy that comes from there will definitely be a huge increase in power.

‘Will we be able to meet again in the second semester?’

If all goes according to plan, we will meet then.

“…Next, we will hold an award ceremony for cadets who have shown outstanding achievements. Cadets whose names are called are requested to come up to the podium.”

The school vacation ceremony has already come to an end.

After a brief lecture, several cadets, including those with excellent grades, were called to the podium to receive praise and awards.

The order started from 1st grade.

Approximately 10 students per grade were selected and advanced to the podium.

“Baek Arin. The cadet above showed outstanding achievements, including being the top student in the 121st class of the city yoram, 1st place in the first semester mid-term written test, 2nd place in the practical test, 1st place overall, and runner-up in the 1st semester tournament, proving that he has the qualities of a hero who will lead the future, so he is worthy of this achievement. I praise you.”

“We will continue to work hard in the future.”

Naturally, Baek Arin, the top student in her grade, also moved up.

After examining the award certificate and announcing the cadet’s achievements, he tapped the cadet’s shoulder with an old-fashioned magic wand.

It looked similar to a simplified version of a knight’s investiture ceremony.

“Red Yeonhwa. The cadet above showed outstanding achievements, including being the runner-up for admission to the 121st class of the city yoram, 11th place in the first semester mid-term written test, 1st place in the practical test, 2nd place overall, and winning the first semester tournament, proving the qualities of a hero who will lead the future, so this achievement is awarded. I praise you.”

“I will work hard.”

In the first year, Hong Yeon-hwa and Baek A-rin are the top students and second students.

“Katsuki Yusei. The above cadet…”

“Lee Hyeon. The above cadet…”

In addition, the main characters who had not yet developed a relationship were eligible for the award.

and.

“Loss rate.”

I also went up to the podium.

Eyes flew in and out. I had felt a lot of gaze since I was standing among the first-year cadets, but now the gaze was even stronger.

I went up to the podium and stood in front of the vice president.

The vice-chancellor’s purple eyes gazed calmly in this direction.

Mouths that had been closed for a moment opened and the award ceremony continued.

“The above cadets were specially admitted to the 121st class of City Yoram, ranked 9th in the first semester mid-term written test, 3rd in the practical test, 7th overall, and advanced to the round of 16 of the first semester tournament.

I felt complicated by the explanation that came from the vice president’s mouth.

As someone who crash-landed in this world and learned from scratch, I am satisfied with my current grades.

I felt dissatisfied with my current performance as I faced the monsters that would later ravage the world.

‘…I guess the latter is a better feeling.’

Rather than being satisfied and complacent, it would be a better feeling to be dissatisfied with the present and work harder.

As the vice president’s explanation was coming to an end, I immediately got ready to control the confession necklace.

All I have to do is say that I will continue to work hard like those who came before me.

“─The achievement is praised because it has demonstrated outstanding achievement and proven the qualities of a hero who will lead the future.”

Tap – The cane tapped my right shoulder.

The Vice-Chancellor’s explanation has ended.

Now that I’ve received my certificate…

“Also.”

‘?’

It didn’t end there, and the vice president’s words continued.

“The above hero is.”

From cadet to hero.

The designation has changed.

“He sacrificed himself for the innocent and helpless from the disaster they faced in a faraway land.”

Tap – The cane tapped my left shoulder. A sense of emptiness emerged from the drooping sleeves.

“This is the path of a hero that everyone will approve of, and there will be no doubt that this is the path of legend that the hero will draw.”

The cane that was pressing down on my shoulder went down. The vice-chancellor held the cane with both hands.

“…Thus, the Acting Chancellor of Siyoram, Vice Chancellor Venus Litera, takes this opportunity to bless the hero’s feat.”

After saying those words, the vice president bowed his head slightly.

There was silence in the auditorium.

and.

– Clap clap clap clap!

As if it had been planned in advance, everyone sitting in their seats stood up one by one and started applauding.

A huge and countless applause, like lightning, filled my ears.

The sound of a camera shutter clicking could also be heard through it.

[Uh… ugh…]

My mouth opened blankly at the unimaginable sight.

My head became dizzy.
