92. Transfer Student

As soon as I woke up the next morning, Lucia took the first boat and took me to the academy.

She was stabbed as the sword predicted, but she did not die.

If she had been a normal person, she would have died at the point she was stabbed, so she was almost hit.

As soon as she arrived at the academy, Lucia dragged me to the hospital saying I needed to be hospitalized.

I should have settled with Casey, but I decided to follow Lucia’s words first.

“Um… It’s not a situation that warrants hospitalization. Still, let’s wait a few days.”

His body’s natural healing power was raised overnight and all internal and external injuries were healed, so he was in the best condition, but Lucia was still shaking as if he was uneasy.

She thought she would cry if I refused, so I decided to stay in the hospital for about a day.

“Atlas..!! What happened all of a sudden?”

“Really hurt?”

Amy and River heard the news and came first.

The two people who knew that I was a master were very sensitive to the news of my injury.

You must be surprised to hear that a person who has not suffered a single injury against Masters or Great Demons suddenly has a hole in his stomach.

“It’s really no big deal. Look, you’re fine now.”

“It’s not a big deal..! That’s how much blood was shed!”

I wanted to pass it off as nothing special, but Lucia, who was with me, got angry.

In her hand was a golden teddy bear with dark red blood stains.

When they said there was a hole in their stomach, the two of them started to take it very seriously.

“Atlas was attacked… Even if you can’t master it… Did some kind of great devil appear?”

“Right! You’re hurt, but it can’t be a big deal! Is there another big incident going on?”

“Uh..Uhhh..”

I couldn’t speak because I was embarrassed.

How can you say that you were stabbed by an expert because you were careless?

Amy seemed to take her situation very seriously, probably because she had a record of winning against Master Rang vs. The Devil without any injuries.

“There was no such thing as a master or an archevil…. It wasn’t really a big deal….”

“There’s no way I could have been hit unless it was a big deal..!”

“If you ask us to tell you if there is anything wrong with us, and then evasive like this… I’m really sad.”

Caught off guard, she was too embarrassed to say she had been stabbed, but couldn’t help but say it properly.

If you don’t tell me what happened to me when you’ve asked the two of you to tell me if something happened, the relationship of trust will be cracked.

“… Anyway, there is no place to escape….”

I decided to risk embarrassing myself and tell the truth.

“I was careless and was stabbed by a disciple. That’s all.”

“…A disciple? What did you do wrong, and you even made me stab you in broad daylight!”

“Um… you said you’d be back soon and went away without contact for three years, right?”

When she said that she hadn’t contacted me in three years, she gave Amy a puzzled look.

“That… You did it wrong… But it’s not something to stab with a knife.”

“Don’t worry too much. Since we’ve been like family to each other, I want to solve it through conversation.”

“…Families do sword fighting too..?”

“Isn’t it common? Everyone has fought to the death with real swords with their families at least once, right?”

“It’s not common. Atlas… Sparring and swordplay are different things. You’re family, right?”

Everyone looked at me with cold eyes.

“Is it just me?”

The night before I joined the Knights, my father and I fought to the death…?

I didn’t kill him, though.

I thought they were all similar because all the samurai had personalities like they had stones in their heads.

—————————————

The next day, I attended the lecture without any problems.

Lucia was worried, but she’s already feeling better.

“Hey, it seems like I’m giving lectures every day, but it seems like it’s been a while since I’ve been…. It must have been a lot of things.”

Everybody laughed when Andy, who had become friends with many of the classmates by now, flirted with them before the lecture even started.

For a second, Andy glanced at me.

Why are you like that?

Considering Andy’s pattern so far, it is said that he did something that deserves attention.

Before, the captain found out that I was in the academy and said that.

You are making me anxious for no reason.

“That… Today, there is one transfer student. It’s not too late, so everyone help me to adapt.”

“Transfer student?”

“There are transfer students coming in..?”

“The test is already over, but it’s easy with a letter of recommendation.”

Due to the structure of the academy, it wasn’t so strange as long as I had a letter of recommendation from the principal.

It’s not at all unusual for a transfer student to come, but it bothered me that Andy was sneakily watching me.

“Now, come in.”

Andy looked at me several times while he was talking.

I was wondering why that person was like that, but as soon as the beautiful silver hair of a ‘transfer student’ outside the classroom entered the classroom, I immediately understood that attitude.

“!!!”

As soon as she saw the transfer student, Lucia jumped up.

Her appearance as a transfer student was also familiar to her.

I couldn’t forget the silver hair that was the color of a sharpened knife, the eyes like the deep sea, and the small but red lips.

It seemed like he was trying to say something, but he didn’t say anything because he was dumbfounded.

The transfer student walked right next to Andy, and as she looked at the students who would be grouped into the same class from now on, she said boldly.

“Nice to meet you. This is Casey. “

Why is he here?

———————————-

As soon as the lecture was over, we all headed to the garden where we could have a quiet conversation in the free time.

“Atlas… That transfer student.. Is he right..?”

“I think so.”

From Andy’s reaction, it must be Casey himself.

The fact that I raised Casey was very famous among the Imperial Knights, so Andy, who was a regular member, must have known about it.

“How could that person… have followed Atlas all the way here…?”

Lucia was wary of Casey.

Even if I say I’m fine, I can’t seem to hear it.

From noble mtl dot com

Seeing the blood in front of my eyes was something I couldn’t forget.

“..It could be. Atlas, that’s good. He said he wanted to solve it through conversation. He came all the way here, so try to solve it.”

“Don’t get caught off guard this time.”

“Don’t worry, you won’t be beaten again.”

Rather than how you were able to get into the academy, let’s think about how to get rid of your anger.

At that time, I felt a presence nearby.

Casey was passing by and spotted us.

When everyone in her looked at her in surprise, Casey also stared at her side.

It was Lucia who moved first in the subtle confrontation.

“Don’t come close… It will never be like yesterday..!”

Lucia jumped up and spread her arms to protect me.

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“Don’t pretend! You bought Atlas yesterday… You stabbed me!!”

“It’s a different business than that, so don’t worry. Enough then…”

Kay nodded to Lucia, who was very wary, and Casey even tried to move to another place.

“…Casey… Did you say that? “

River caught Casey as he tried to leave quietly.

“Are you saying you wouldn’t do anything threatening to Atlas if you came for another problem?”

Casey didn’t answer that question and looked at me.

“… Surrounded by young female students… Let’s sell, you look good.”

When Casey had said that, she turned her back and walked away.

‘You look good..?’

What bothered me the most was that he treated me with respect.

You’re suddenly being treated with respect, even if you were told to do so?

———————————

Casey’s academy transfer process was made easy with Linda’s help.

Anyway, when I asked if she could leave the Knights for such a long time, she said that she would treat it as if she was doing a secret mission.

And apart from that, she left the word to keep an eye on the academy as something else might happen in the near future.

After completing the transfer process overnight, Casey decided what to do when she saw Atlas.

She apologized for stabbing him and agreed to talk.

Although Atlas clearly did something wrong with Casey, he thought the stabbing was too much.

On the first day after the lightning-fast transfer procedure, Casey entered the classroom thinking about what to say to Atlas.

But what Casey saw was Atlas surrounded by more women.

She was speechless at the sight.

When I look at Atlas, I can’t remember what I was trying to say.

Instead, soggy, hot, black emotions made her heart ache.

‘You must have wanted to do something like that…’

A very beautiful person with blonde hair and amber eyes… A cute person with impressive red bobbed hair like an apple…

The women around Atlas were diverse, from the first big man he saw.

They surrounded Atlas as if to protect it, and were wary of Casey.

Atlas’s appearance embarrassed Casey.

There was a huge difference in atmosphere between the Atlas that Casey knew and the current Atlas.

Atlas wondered if he was happier now than he was with him.

I was so depressed that I couldn’t talk in the end.

“…Okay, let’s do something.”

According to Linda, she also said that a demon-related incident could happen at her academy, so she decided to do something.
