The sizzling sound of meat that tickles your ears.

A feast of savory meat festival that will make your mouth water.

From the perspective of the female knights, for whom one bowl was not enough…

When I looked at the wooden plates being filled so quickly, I felt as if I was at a high-end restaurant in the kingdom.

Dahyun’s quick-witted actions and bright smile… all the elements of her look so beautiful right now, at this moment.

The female knights had no choice but to show respect to Dahein. This is because people were appeased with food, which is the weakest part of humans.

＇Wow, that’s amazing..＇

‘They completely deceived us with food..’

Dahin’s unconscious good behavior felt to Kathar as just a high-level strategy on his part.

Just by looking at the battle just now, one could be sure that he was different from ordinary men.

‘I’m glad it suits everyone’s tastes.’

Grumble..

The belly alarm that I had been holding back so hard started to sound like it was asking for food.

＇Shall I try eating it too?＇

After putting down the heated iron plate, he walks over to them and sits down.

＇First, let’s start with this fat-filled part..’

He picks up an appetizing piece of meat on the iron plate with both hands, armed with titanium slime, and without hesitation, takes a mouthful of it.

“bout!!”

Sigh!

just as expected. I can feel the eyes of the female knights who were busy eating their food turning to me.

It was a behavior that had become a habit since he and Belze had always eaten together in the {Wolf Beast Tribe} village.

Of course, men in this world always had to be discreet and show a dignified appearance, but…

＇I’m starving to death.. what kind of attitude do you have? ＇

I feel the meat and fat of the [Tagpog] meat that comes into my mouth with my whole body, saying it doesn’t matter.

＂Hmm.. it’s delicious.＂

His behavior, which seemed like he didn’t care about the opinions of those around him, seemed like he was messy and vulgar from the female employees’ perspective, but it came across as a different charm.

Compared to his timid appearance, his expressions are diverse and rich.

As he ate with all his might with his small mouth, his cheeks puffed out like a squirrel.

“box!!”

As soon as I took a big bite of the large piece of meat, the glossy juices spurted out between my lips… making several paths and slowly flowing down.

Dahyin, who was licking the meat once with her tongue as if she was roughly wiping it with the back of her armed hand, soon picked up another piece of meat and smiled brightly.

“Young master, please eat slowly.”

Qatar handing over a canteen.

As I was eating, a question suddenly came to my mind.

＇Now that I think about it… I don’t really know much about {Royal Academy}.?’

Aside from the fact that it was an educational place that mainly taught swordsmanship and academics… I honestly didn’t know anything about it.

Ssss..

I look at Kathar while wiping my lips that are shiny with oil.

＂Um… Qatari driver.＂

“Could I hear more information about {Royal Academy}?”

＂I’m still clueless… the information is weak.＂

Katar, whose strange sense of distance was broken down by Dahin’s shy smile, put down the wooden bowl for a moment and slowly began to explain.

{Royal Academy}.

It is the only officially established place of study in the {Kingdom of Alysseum}. Ultimately, it is said to be an institution that produces {service knights} or educates the daughters of nobles and lords.

If you have the ability to handle magic, swordsmanship, and other outstanding talents, you can enter the {Royal Academy} after a rigorous examination regardless of class or race, even if you are not a noble.

Of course, it is said that anyone can enroll with free support as long as they can prove their abilities, even if they are poor people who cannot take care of their backs, or even if they are lowly slaves.

However, even if they have gone through such a rigorous admission process, it is said that anyone who fails to keep up with the class progress and exams or is foolish enough to undermine the order and reputation of the {Royal Academy} will also be strictly expelled, regardless of status.

On the other hand, those with excellent grades are given the privilege of moving to various facilities, and the application level is different, so not only is it more competitive, but it is also said that it is possible to graduate early, beyond the formal graduation of 4 years.

Of course, ignoring the competition rate, it is said that there is about one person from the entire school.

“This is not the end.”

＂No matter how outstanding your skills and talent are, if you let your guard down, you will be found out quickly.＂

“There will always come a moment when you have to prove your skills.”

It seemed to be saying that this is a place where one cannot survive based solely on status, not skill.

It is said that the number of people who reach the level of {Service Knight} is small and limited, and only the best who do not give up their limitations get the position.

Kathar’s explanation, as if he was reading a Korean language book, was so catchy that I nodded and felt a deep excitement in my heart.

Will I be able to do well there?

If I can graduate from the {Royal Academy}, I wonder if I can become a {Service Knight} like my mother.

Such anticipation and excitement makes my heart pound.

***

More than a month late.

{Royal Academy} should have arrived within a month at the earliest.

But for some reason, it took 6 days to reach {Norumaki Village}.

They transferred to a carriage at {Romack Village} and were able to arrive at {Royal Academy} in a total of 16 days.

‘I can’t believe it could arrive this quickly..’

＇Are you really Dincia’s son?＇

The main factor that was able to reduce everything, including expenses, manpower, and damage, was Dahuin.

The courage to fall asleep in any environment without complaining.

A sincere person who is polite to everyone.

The attacks of monsters… came as high-quality food.

I wonder if the female knights who have become close friends with Da-heein over the years are now saddened by the thought of having to part ways with him.

Or maybe I’m just downcast at the fact that I won’t be able to eat the food he cooked for me in the future.

There was a very listless expression on his face.

＂Thank you for your hard work.＂

“I will guide you, Master Dahein, so everyone can return to their work.”

So I stayed in the carriage with Kathar and started heading towards where the {Royal Academy} was located.

＇Maybe it’s because I haven’t even seen {Romaki Village} before…＇

＇It’s very advanced here, isn’t it?＇

Indeed, as it is a place of study managed directly by {Alyseum Kingdom}, the appearance of the inside of the village at the entrance looked very different from {Dirrin Village}.

A road that is flat and made of various stones.

It was flooded due to heavy rain, and although it still looked sloppy, it seemed to have drainage facilities.

＇Is {Dirrin Village} so remote that technological development is slow?’

Medieval buildings clustered around.

Bang bang bang!!

A blacksmith knocking down weapons.

“welcome. “How many people are there??”

The smell of a night market serving delicious food.

And… more than anything, I felt only excitement in this village where so many people of various races live together.

***

Crash!!

I was so excited to see the village that I stared at it for a while, and before I knew it, I had arrived right in front of the {Royal Academy}.

A building that looks like a huge mansion.

A sturdy stone wall tightly blocks the surrounding area.

I swallow hard and look at Katar.

＇Am I nervous now?＇

That’s what my pounding heart was telling me.

“Who is coming today?”

“Ah.. I don’t know. Morning training is so hard, I’m dying.”

The harsh sounds of female students coming in and out of the front door can be clearly heard.

Wow..

just as expected. The carriage door slowly began to open.

“young master. Let’s hold hands.”

Kathar, who was looking at me, seemed to get off first, but then he waved his hand and welcomed me with the utmost courtesy.

‘Are you conscious of the outside world?’

Although he felt strange about Kathar’s behavior, he got out of the carriage with her help.

During my journey so far, I always got on and off the carriage alone. Of course, it seemed like Qatar was trying to offer me his hand every time for the purpose of escorting, but I tried to refuse it. Of course, politely.

But for today, we definitely have to show courtesy. As many people’s attention was focused, they tried to match her rhythm.

If she had refused Qatar’s hand here, she would also have been in an awkward situation.

“Thank you. Qatar driver.”

just as expected. I could feel everyone looking at me as I slowly got off, courtesy of Katar.

‘This… is more burdensome than I thought.’

Exotic with colorful eyes and hair? Girls.

I… showed the cold eyes from [All About Cold Self-Control], which I read at the strong recommendation of my father, and stared straight ahead without meeting anyone’s gaze.

‘different..’

‘I didn’t think it would get this much attention.’

Sigh.

Suddenly..

Kathar seemed to lower his head… and then placed his lips on the [black silk glove] on the back of my hand, thanking me for the journey so far.

I just froze.

＂Hey look over there..＂

＂Have you seen {Service Knight} treated like that??

“Didn’t you even hear the rumor??”

“Didn’t you say that a man who uses magical powers is transferring to the school??”

＂Seo, I guess… I just stopped by because of something..＂

＂No??＂

“Rumor has it that he is the son of the legendary hero Diendeluka Dincia.”

＂If it is Dian Deluca… is it the great sword of the kingdom that can cut even Mount Tai into flames?＂

“But look at that… he looks arrogant, but don’t you think he’ll smile brightly if you approach him?”

“You can hear everything, so be quiet..”

The unfamiliar voices of female students whispering little by little.

Her sudden behavior felt burdensome, but it was only after entering the {Royal Academy} that I could understand why she did this.

However, no distinction is made based on status or race, and admission is granted solely based on merit.

It is said that most educational institutions called {Royal Academy} are financed by children of nobles.

It is true to some extent that there is a real influence of social status, and since first impressions are important, Qatar was considerate of me in its own way.

So I calmly moved on, maintaining a cold, blunt expression.

Turf.. plod.. plod..

This is the first time I have received the attention of so many people, whether in my past life or my current life.

I feel nauseous from the pounding of my heart.

＂Now it’s all there.. ＂

“And.. what I said earlier was not nonsense.”

“The journey we took together was more enjoyable than ever.”

After completing the short greeting he could convey, Kathar soon turned around and headed somewhere, perhaps completing his mission.

Left alone in front of the huge door, I control my nervous mind again and place my hand on the handle to open the door.

Damn it!!
