92 – Oh John Nassen! Hero of the Empire!

“Tomorrow everyone will know. This is the midterm exam you have been waiting for.”

“Uhhh!!”

An asshole waiting! Away from the devil professor!! The words flicker on students’ lips.

No matter whether you are an aristocrat or a commoner, a freshman or a senior, you hate exams.

Except for a very small number of people.

‘A mid-term review of the efforts made so far.’

With an armful of books in hand, Tisha clenches her fists.

I came to the academy with a letter of recommendation from the Marquis, but that alone is not enough. You have to prove yourself within

. And tests are the best proof.

By the way, it’s only been half of my first year, and I’ve spent a lot of my savings.

You must get high grades in order to receive a scholarship.

Only then can a commoner be confident in front of aristocrats.

And you can change your perception of witchcraft, which is your real dream.

One day, I will make all the people of the Empire admit that there are many good things besides magic!

“Are you going to the library again, Tisha? It’s hard work.”

“Then I will hurt myself. It’s good to have a little bit of leeway.”

“Thank you for your words. I will try to do that.”

Those who talk to Tisha are not common students like her.

They are aristocratic students. They were also the sons and daughters of well-known families.

A strange commoner student who, until recently, was mad at Tisha for witchcraft.

The reason why those who used to be called ‘witches’ suddenly changed is simple.

Because Tisha has come into contact with the Grand Duchy of Littorio. That was it.

Thanks to that, her nickname of witch disappeared, and her interest in her magic increased a little.

I wonder if some of the students formed a sorcery club with Tisha.

Of course, only ‘commoner’ students are all there yet. The nobles are watching.

Since I don’t like to go up and down in the cubicles of other nobles for no reason, it was a natural procedure.

“How is your preparation for the exam going?”

Tisha had tea time with Elga today as well.

After she happened to protect her from her academy raid the other day.

It was to the extent that I had a fixed time to spend with Elgar like now.

“Yes. It’s going well.”

“Tisha is such an outstanding talent. Her sorcery is also sorcery, but I like her raw hair, right?”

“Thank you for the compliment. But there are plenty of people who are smarter than me. I just try and try again.”

She

She is a woman close to Kyle, and she herself is a very outstanding person.

She can be of help later, if not now, definitely will.

Thinking that a genius who works hard is always right, Elgar took a sip of tea.

And she slowly began to bring out the reason for calling Tisha today.

“Aren’t you curious?”

“Yes?”

“I got the news yesterday. The situation on the western front.”

At that moment, Tisha’s eyes exploded! And sparks rise.

Kyle, who suddenly disappeared, had been away from her place for nearly a month.

The only news I heard was that he had moved to the western front.

At first, I thought that was nonsense.

Kyle is neither a soldier nor a knight, but a son of a noble family.

I had heard of commoners being drafted, but I had never heard of nobles being drafted.

“From what I heard, Kyle’s brother and sister took it.”

“As I expected, there seems to be some deal going on between Jon Nassen and the Imperial Family.”

She still remembers Elgar, who called her out and kindly handed over the information.

She was a little embarrassed by her sudden favor, but she was good anyway.

Because I heard the news about Kyle and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with his attendance.

“Oh, what did you say?!”

“They won.”

“Really!? The Empire has won!”

“Yes. The Confederacy surrendered, and the Empire accepted the surrender. The important thing here is that it was John Nassen’s siblings who brought about that surrender.”

What Elgar said next was a series of surprises.

Without a fight to speak of, only Kyle and two other John Nassen sorted things out.

By overpowering the three giants that were comparable to the 10 empires, the alliance’s will to resist was completely crushed, and as a result, the alliance eventually admitted defeat and surrendered.

“Wonderful… Is it work?”

“Isn’t it just amazing? This is unprecedented. This never happened even during the great wars of the empire. It’s hard to distinguish superiority and inferiority with each other, so it’s a method of fighting moderately, handing over moderately, and then clashing with each other’s armies to determine victory or defeat. Occasionally, only when the military condition is not good, the strong players compete with each other to decide the victory or defeat of the day, even if there are times like that.”

Kyle is very strong. Tisha thought so as she fiddled with the teacup.

I can understand why Ian is living in an indoor gym these days.

Sometimes when we run into each other, they say, ‘When will Kyle come back?’.

She heard the professors commenting that Ian is one of the best talents among freshmen. She

Did she say that she could compete with her 4th year seniors in swordsmanship?

Like that, Ian is training like crazy, wanting to be acknowledged by Kyle somehow.

“And the best part. They say they are preparing for the ceremony now.”

“If it’s a training ceremony… Aren’t you giving medals to those who have made achievements in the imperial family?”

“Yes. It is said that even a high-ranking member of the imperial family personally handed down medals. The target is, of course, John Nassen. It is an honor worthy of a grand duke who has made great achievements in the past.”

Although Archduke Schrelitz is said to be the commander, originally a great award is given to those of high rank.

He’ll admit that too, he’ll rather he knows he’ll look bad when he gets it.

The war ended without a single skirmish. The Confederacy banged their heads and surrendered.

It is clear that he has no intention of being greedy for such a huge task.

“This is amazing….”

“Right? That’s great, that guy named Kyle. I knew he was a great person, but I never thought he would get rid of the resentment attached to the name John Nassen like this.”

In reality, all I did was follow my older brother and sister to judge the Lloyds.

For Elgar, who doesn’t know that fact, he just thinks Kyle chose to change people’s eyes.

‘All men who have just become adults are ignorant and have shallow minds… Kyle, he’s a real man.’

Perhaps the place in the top 10 that hasn’t changed for several years might change.

Uncharacteristically for her usual woman, Elgar was quite agitated and kept talking about her.

Thanks to that, Tisha thought blankly as she listened to Elgar’s words.

‘What a wonderful person you are. Kyle is….’

Always working hard, always diligent, and never conceited.

Although he has such great power, he doesn’t look down on others or show off.

He is rather kind to everyone, even reaching out his hand to let’s work together.

And that kind of person is showing a little more special care for himself.

‘… I also. You have to work harder I have to work harder!’

Kyle has become so amazing that she can’t stay like this.

I have to work harder, achieve greater results, and become a person who fits next to Kyle.

So she won’t hear that Kyle is friends with commoners, that he’s close to witches who are crazy about witchcraft.

‘You have to be a person who suits your side. In order to do that, I will become the best!’

Tisha was the first to aim for first place in the midterm exam, igniting her will to succeed.

“… Wait a minute, wait a minute. Brother and sister? What now….”

Kyle asks again in an absurd voice.

With a nonchalant expression in front of her, Lear replied.

“I will not go to the ecliptic. I plan to go right back on the road going up north.”

“Then what about the training ceremony? They say the imperial family is coming to give you a medal.”

“Isn’t it okay for me and my older brother to go back, and you, Kyle, take it by yourself? Either the three of us go and receive it anyway, or you go alone and receive it. I don’t think there’s any difference? Because John Nassen gets it.”

Of course it is, but I don’t think this is a bit off.

At most, the imperial family thought of it and personally thanked John Nassen.

It’s very strange when the returning people suddenly return home.

“Brother and sister. Let’s just go together. It’s enough to just go and receive a medal, say thank you for your hard work, and then go right away. Isn’t it hard?”

“It’s not enough. And it is very difficult. I am the youngest.”

“Older brother is right. Her muscle loss is already coming. My body feels stiff.”

No, that bastard’s muscle loss! He said he warmed up while having fun hitting and kicking and fighting!

Muscle loss is an important thing, of course, but no matter how much, this time it’s not real!

Because attending unconditionally is the best way for John Nassen!!

The Empire has been silent for nearly 30 years since the war of conquest has ended.

Unsurprisingly, the ceremony has never been held in the meantime.

In such a situation, it was the first training ceremony held in decades, but two of the recipients disappeared?

The pride of the imperial family is also a problem, and the award ceremony itself will be very difficult.

“Could you think about it one more time, brother? Sister. My youngest would like to ask you a favor.”

It was Kyle who put his hands together and almost prayed.

But muscle loss was more important to them than her youngest child’s tearful request.

“You take it all. I’m the youngest. You deserve it.”

“Aren’t we supposed to be in the Empire any longer anyway? But Kyle, if you can’t do it in the future, there will be three more years. Then it would be better to shine alone in such a place!”

“I don’t want to take over my brother and sister’s share!”

“It is a fair share. My sister and I just caught two drugged beasts.”

“On the contrary, Kyle, you fought a real fight against a real strong man and won.”

To think that a strong man of the 10th level could be called a beast when he amplified his mana and ran out of control.

It was a part where I could feel the ignorant strength of my brother and sister once again.

“Then what else can I say to Grand Duke Shrelitz….”

“I already told you.”

“Brother? Directly?”

“Yes.”

“So?”

“When I said I was going to my hometown, they said they would know right away. Without asking why. It sounds like you listened to me seriously.”

“….”

Lear’s serious expression, serious expression. Imagine that face for a second.

‘… How can I say no there?’

He is obviously a really kind and good older brother, but he has a very rough impression and is often misunderstood.

Even in the Jon Nassen estate right now, if Lear gets a lot of sunlight and frowns.

Would the people of the other territories carefully pass by in case something happened?

Lear made a serious face and spoke in a serious voice.

If I could give a negative answer there, it would be one of two things.

Blind or insane. And the Grand Duke had none of those things.

‘No. Would it have been better If my older brother or sister and that Princess Julika collided….’

If you fight right away at the ceremony, that’s ruined! All.

And the problem is that they are humans who will remain like Yulica and Lear.

It was Kyle who started to get confused when he thought about it that far.

It definitely seems to be a problem, but looking at it this way, it seems fortunate.

There are good and bad parts, so it was ambiguous to point out.

“Please, I am the youngest.”

“Go and do well. Got it? I’ll tell my parents well!”

They were the John Nassen siblings who didn’t know how fast their younger brother was and were excited to go home and exercise.
