The King's Capital First Education Department is a legitimate educational institution established by the Royal Family, which exists in the northern territory of the King's Capital Merlin. Those who graduate from the "Wangdu Second Education Department Secondary School" or have only the equivalent academic qualifications or abilities are allowed to take entrance exams to the higher education department, and if they pass brilliantly, they can progress to school.

However, the gates to higher education are much higher. Restrictions on intermediate admission - only those recommended by royalty or aristocracy or the above can be admitted - are relatively wide, but on the other hand, the level required is higher. First of all, all the necessary academic skills are reserved only by powerful people such as "royalty” and “nobility”, and they are things that cannot be learned by civilians, peasants in the countryside, and so on. Inevitably, it will only have to pass with strength, but it is not so easy to gain strength or anything else.

As a result, the majority of students belonging to the higher education sector are secondary school graduates, otherwise successful candidates due to their origins are rare.

To give you an example, Emilia Shenti beat out the third-largest performance in the entrance exam practice division this year.

She was a descendant of the "135th Brigade of the Unexploited West" and a user of the still rare "healing technique”. There was also a slight lack of knowledge due to academic qualifications from the region, but Emilia managed to pass the entrance exam due to the "healing technique” that only compensated for the limited number of users.

Except for the closest passers.

This is Lieutenant Colonel Albert Schneidel, captain of the "5th Division" of the "Knights of the King's Capital", who passed the entrance exam by defeating the then “Chairman” with swordsmanship using his superior “talent”.

After three years of “chairmanship," he graduated and became a member of the "Knights of the King's Capital" and was assigned to the lowest level of the organizational group, but with strength he went up to the captain of the "5th Division”.

At the same time as the captain took office, he was to serve as a special adviser to the High and Middle Departments as a guide for swordsmanship.

Its Lt. Col. Albert Schneidel continues his morning smelting at the training ground every morning at seven o'clock.

A thousand barebacks every morning. But I don't always do it at the training ground.

One time in the hallway in front of the staff room, one time in an unpopular classroom, and one time in front of the main entrance of the middle department.

Occasionally today I just waved bare at a training ground in the High Ministry and then waved my sword somehow.

7: 45 a.m.

When Schneidel felt the signs and looked back, one boy stood quietly at the entrance to the training ground.

A knife in your left hand, not on your hips, and constant strained air. Only one boy with such traits comes to mind.

Schneidel waved his sword down quietly,

"... Lynn... No, should I call you Chairman Eileen in this case?

Don't hesitate to point the cut at Lynn and ask.

There is one thing I would like to ask my goddaughter, who had one-sided expectations.

"... How long have you been a" wind discipline commissioner ”?

Meet the boy was about four years ago. He enrolled in middle school and found it in a swordsmanship class.

Schneidel glanced at the ambitious facade and unique atmosphere unworthy of age.

If you teach him swordsmanship and sorcery in his spare time, he would absorb knowledge one after another as if water were stained, and he liked and expected that greedy attitude.

I wondered if he would still do it if I was uncomfortable with the way I spent my life in a hurry. Lid the hunch many times past with that expectation - but reality wasn't so sweet, and Lynn was already a person on the "Spirit Tree” side.

If Schneidel's predictions are correct,

"... you must have noticed, instructor Schneidel. He said I was already on the other side.

In a slower and lower voice than usual, Lynn

"… fourteen years ago. From that moment my parents betrayed the Spirit Tree, my path was decided."

"... have you been on the side of the Spirit Tree since before that?"

"Instructor Schneidel is something similar, isn't he? Me and you, knowing that the organization is rotten, are still obedient... and this is the only way I could survive."

Most, and words with a contempt look on their face,

If justice existed in this world, I wouldn't have stepped off the road. "

I've never seen Lynn's face there before.

I wasn't wearing a cat, I wasn't hiding it. It just didn't show, his heart.

To an attitude that changed a hundred and eighty degrees just to clarify his position, while Schneidel was surprised not to put it on his expression.

"- Eileen... who the hell are you?

An unidentified "wind discipline commissioner." The girl named his childhood tame calls him 'Lynn', and he himself names' Irene '. All I know is that the nickname "Lynn” is nicknamed, and I don't know one thing about him when I wash his origins.

I don't know the real name of the boy standing in front of me right now, the existence of his parents, and I don't even know why.

Claire found out that the Knights of the King's Capital had a woman with the code name Irene, but that's all. In the end, nothing in common with the boy came up.

That's why Schneidel wanted to know.

I couldn't help but want to know the past of moving my dear godson, even as I tried to pull some information in front of dangerous enemies.

Why would Lynn take the “Spirit Tree" side so objectively and intellectually looking at the big picture?

Lynn still pales back to such a Schneidel question.

"... I'm just Irene. There, falsehood is not included. If I wanted to find out, I'd come out with a lot about me... because I..."

away from Schneidel's gaze as he hesitated to do something,

"... no, you didn't have to answer"

He smiles slightly at himself and leaks his voice.

"Me and Teacher Schneidel are enemies... I just wanted to make sure of that, so"

"... is it the fault of your mind that you feel included?

"... then let me give you just one tip?

Poke the knife on the floor with your left hand,

"If Teacher Schneidel had been betrayed by her belly... she would have acted just like me."

Obviously poisonous, stabbing words.

Schneidel had no idea what the hell was hidden there.

If you've ever figured it out, it's...

(… is complete. The answer is, I have everything from the beginning...... have you hinted at that)

Rarely speak the truth, his perhaps first and final advice.

I don't know what kind of emotions are associated with it.

"… the aim of the" Spirit Tree "is to promote outstanding students of the institution to“ Wind Discipline Commissioners ”. Threats and brainwashing are easy for them these days. Then if you take a hostage and make your students obey you, and plant it in the Spirit Tree, you can make the Wind Discipline Commissioner... and for that reason, the Wind Discipline Commissioner is here.

Only, Schneidel acts as a member of The Knights.

"Such a" wind discipline commissioner ”appeared before me about this on his own, driven by personal feelings.... Lynn, can't you stop?

I don't know. I've been dealing with someone named Lynn.

Still, it feels thin that he's trying to do something big.

That's why the last word was a payback advice from Schneidel.

Schneidel-like hesitation that we can still go another way without the need to be hostile.

But...

"... what are you saying sweetly, Lieutenant Colonel Albert Schneidel?

What came back was a clear rejection.

In him, it seems he was already on a different path with Schneidel, and Lynn stared sharply at the

"You're the one who didn't notice. I did my utmost courtesy."

The boy says, letting go of the killing spirit that pierces him as if he were a blade.

"- No more“ Spirit Tree ”negotiations. If you break that, now I'm gonna kill you for real."

That's a death sentence that even Schneidel, who is accustomed to the place, unintentionally stops moving.

I keep adding intimidation for a while, and after some time, it disappears all the time.

Now, with a ruthless, ruthless smile that I've never seen before, the opposite of the killer.

"- If you're instructor Schneidel, you know what to do, don't you?

Schneidel, who managed to restart the

"... is that as“ Commissioner Wind Discipline ”? Or... as an 'Eileen' individual?

"... come on? If you don't want to die, don't negotiate with me again. That way, at least" now ”will survive, Teacher Schneidel."

Leaving behind slanderous words, Lynn left the training ground intact.

Schneidel, left behind, was stretching his spine, which was solidifying naturally, while opening his left hand, which was squeezing,

"... I didn't know I felt threatened so far."

I wiped my wet hand with a cold sweat and put the sword I was poking at in my sheath.

After several deep breaths, Schneidel rebelled Lynn's words,

(... I didn't know when I looked it up. But it would have been something you should have noticed right away... is that who 'Irene' is, or...)

Even from his unusual attitude at the beginning and end, it was thought that Lynn had expected something from Schneidel.

If Schneidel had noticed "Eileen" - Schneidel would never have died. That's what Schneidel chose for the future. I guess that's what Lynn wanted to say.

(Lynn came to talk to me in anticipation of something. But I didn't know anything and Lynn abandoned her hesitation... the result was hostile, or... Ha, I've been tasted a lot too)

When Schneidel is forced to distort his mouth to the form of a grin, he leaves the training ground behind.

However, that is not to keep the boy's words faithful.

"Can you hear me, Lieutenant Claire Jumil?"

"Yes, sensitive, Captain Schneidel."

Schneidel paled back to Claire's voice heard by the communication tools she had hidden inside her clothes.

"Schedule a capture operation faster. Get ready as soon as you can."

"Captain Schneidel, we haven't heard back from HQ yet!

"I don't mind, get everyone ready to use it. You can pull from other divisions, make sure you have a winnable formation and strength."

After giving instructions almost unilaterally, I realized I forgot to say something important.

"And I was able to get a couple of agents to investigate confidentially."

'Eh... Captain Schneidel, is that more important than this mission?

"Oh. Maybe it'll be a trump card"

Schneidel is

"Find out about the woman with the 'Irene' code name. Everything from identity to real name to background."

'That's what I looked into before... but! Didn't you make any particular progress investigating it!

"It sure is. But apparently, Chairman Eileen is involved in some way in the Knights of the Kings."

'... that sounds like fun, Captain Schneidel. Seems to me like a story in a completely incomprehensible dimension...'

"Really?... Well, maybe so"

with your right hand through your own mouth.

"... but keep it confidential... and look up the records that were erased (...) and raise the report in three days."

I hung up on them without waiting for their reply.

And laugh clearly.

For the first time in a long time, I think about a clear order violation that I would only do to satisfy my personal desires, and I turn my teeth out and laugh.

"... I don't know how I'd get out if Claire betrayed me... I've decided that kind of thing. Don't let me regret betraying you and then kill you... that's what you're doing right now"

"Wind Discipline Commissioner" capture operation, which was launched yesterday to “Division 1" as the main force of "Division 5”. The aim is to capture or annihilate all four and cut off the strength of the "Wind Discipline Commissioner".

That's the operation.

But that's just the top side content. The purpose of their “5th Division” is to capture all four. I don't care how many deep hands you let as long as you live. And use the precious "wind discipline commissioner” as a material for human experiments. Keep it a secret so that no other division can ever do it.

Ultimately, it leads to an increase in the strength of the "5th Division”.

That was Schneidel's aim.

Let this operation succeed at all costs and be the food for Schneidel to ascend to the Knights of the 'King's Capital Knights'.

"... Absolutely, this operation will succeed. Absolutely..."

Schneidel also has a purpose, just as Lynn has a purpose. The purpose that I decided to accomplish at any cost. The "Knights Commander” is just a crossing point for that, but on the contrary, if you don't become the "Knights Commander”, you can't achieve your purpose.

That is why failure is unacceptable.

Schneidel repeatedly ascertained the weight of her sword with a fierce grin to hide her anxiety.
