The Academy’s Barbarian Chapter 263

Chapter 58. All-in-one (3)

6.

Candidate for the next student council president.

It was the third day after Elvin was arrested.

Suddenly, the inspection team issued an emergency announcement.

The message was that Elvin Addict had lost his qualifications as a candidate for student council president.

“… … “As above, Elvin Addict is under investigation by the Empire’s intelligence agency, so he is stripped of all qualifications as a cadet at Arsene Academy.”

The charge was for distributing Droga Leaf, which was designated as a highly dangerous drug, to the academy.

Also, because there is a possibility that it may have been distributed to the Empire, Elvin was currently detained by the Intelligence Bureau.

“Therefore, the qualifications of candidates for the next student council president and the authority of student council officers will also be revoked until the investigation is completed.”

After the sudden announcement.

Arsene’s student council was shocked.

With Elvin at the forefront, they wanted to enjoy the same power and benefits that the current student council executives enjoyed, but all their plans turned into a mess.

Accordingly, the current student council executives tried to hastily run for a new candidate, but of course this was impossible.

Because today was voting day to elect the next student council president.

“Then let’s start voting now.”

“Voting is conducted in order from 1st to 4th grade. “We ask for your cooperation.”

The results of the vote were as clear as day.

One of the two candidates who was likely to win the election disappeared, and as a result, the votes were concentrated in one place.

Directly to Iris Senior.

“Congratulations, senior!”

“Congratulations, Iris.”

The result was a landslide victory for Iris Senior.

She confidently won the victory with a margin of as much as five times the number of votes.

Iris, who became the next student council president while receiving everyone’s congratulations, soon walked down the podium.

“Ulan cadet.”

Eventually, she arrived at the place where the Ulan group gathered. Afterwards, Iris held Ulan’s hand and smiled brightly.

“thank you. Thanks to your cooperation, we were able to achieve good results in the election. And I would like to thank the others as well.”

Ulan made the biggest contribution in the election.

It was Ulan and the others who discovered the student council’s conspiracy and, furthermore, obtained the cooperation of Marquis Gorpant and Dean Bergé.

Thanks to this, Iris was able to win the election without much effort. Meanwhile, Ulan remained silent in response to her thanks.

“I just kept my promise.”

“Yes, so I will keep my promise to you. “To eliminate all forms of discrimination that exist at Arsene Academy.”

Iris said this the other day.

If I become the next student council president, I will completely eliminate situations where people are discriminated against just because they are not from a noble family.

Remembering this, Ulan nodded silently. Then he kissed his lips again.

“I’ll leave that up to you. And our promise is not over yet.”

“yes? What does that mean… … .”

“Because we couldn’t find the watcher.”

Ulan’s eyes shone fiercely.

This is a story about an unidentified gaze that watches over Iris as if watching her. Then Camilla, who had been listening to her conversation, suddenly opened her mouth.

“Oh, it’s okay now, don’t worry about it.”

“you’re right. After Elvin Addict was arrested, attention completely disappeared. “I think the student council executives were probably the culprits.”

Iris also determined that the people who were watching were current student council executives.

On the other hand, Ulan looked uneasy.

However, since the people involved thought that way, we decided to move on for now. Anyway, it was something I would have to investigate or find out separately later.

“Anyway, thank you again, and if you need any help from me, please let me know. “I will help you this time.”

Iris bows her head once again.

He then added that he would cooperate with the intention of not forgetting the favor. Then Ulan’s eyes twinkled as if she had been waiting.

“That’s a good thing.”

“yes? “Do you have a favor to ask?”

“okay. “You need permission to go out.”

Ulan nodded briefly.

He then added that he had business to do in the capital tomorrow morning. After a while, when the story was over, Iris touched his chin and muttered.

“Uhm, I understand. “If you’re only going out in the morning, I’ll try to make arrangements.”

“Please.”

“Can I just have one outing ticket?”

“No, Noah is planning to go out too.”

“okay. Then in two pieces… … .”

Iris shook her head.

But at that moment, three girls who had been quietly listening to their conversation suddenly barged in.

“no. “One more, please.”

“I also have some business to run in the capital.”

“I want to go too!”

Delia, Ibella and Perticia.

The three looked at Ulan and Noah with burning eyes. Their eyes were determined, as if they couldn’t spend time alone, no matter what happened.

Meanwhile, did you guess what was going on?

Iris, with an awkward smile, readily accepted the three girls’ request.

“All right. “Then I’ll make arrangements so you can go out right away tomorrow morning.”

“thanks.”

Ulan gently lowered his head.

Ulan and his party, who had been promised permission to go out by Iris, went straight back to their dormitory, and the night of victory came to an end.

7.

The next morning.

It’s early at dawn.

Ulan and his party left the academy by carriage and headed to the capital of the empire. It was because I used the permission to go out that I received from Iris yesterday.

There is only one reason for them to head to the capital.

The purpose is to stop by the Count of Dermore’s mansion to find physical evidence that he is connected to the Abyss.

‘Of course, the memories of the Abyss worshiper read through the spirit are already enough.’

However, that alone is not enough to blindly attack Count Dermore. He is a wizard belonging to the Magic Tower and a great noble of the empire.

If the count is dealt with without physical evidence that everyone can understand, it is inevitable that he will be accused of murdering a nobleman.

‘therefore… … .’

First, you have to find physical evidence.

And this can be found out by investigating Count Dermore’s mansion. Noah bit his lip with a face full of determination.

Then.

“Sir, you have arrived.”

The carriage arrived at its destination.

The southern square of the imperial capital.

It is about a 30-minute walk to the final destination, the Earl of Dermore’s mansion.

“Ugh, it’s stinging.”

“The carriage was a bit narrow.”

After lightly loosening my stiff body.

Ulan and his party walked briskly.

There was no time to delay. Considering that I had to return to the academy in the afternoon, there were only two hours left.

How long did it take to walk like that?

As I passed the plaza and entered the downtown area.

Suddenly, Ibella’s steps stopped.

“uh? That place… … .”

Suddenly, something caught my eye.

A three-story building at the entrance to a downtown area.

Seeing this, Ibella’s turquoise eyes sparkled and she immediately pulled Ulan’s hand.

“Ulan, do you remember that place? “The theater we went to together when we first came to the capital.”

“Of course I remember.”

“really? “Then do you remember what you saw?”

Eyes filled with anticipation.

Ulan nodded silently.

“It was probably about jumping off a cliff.”

“Hehe, that’s right.”

To be exact, it is a play about the love between a noble daughter and a barbarian warrior.

Even though a lot of information was omitted, Ibella smiled with satisfaction just because she remembered part of the play.

“oh! “Now that I think about it, I guess there’s a sequel.”

The play that Ulan and Ibella had seen at that time was clearly titled ‘The Song of Floris.’

Conversely, the play currently playing in theaters is Floris’ Dance. Ibella’s eyes sparkled at the name, which somehow reminded her of a sequel.

Meanwhile, Ulan reacted in confusion.

“I jumped off a cliff. Is there a sequel?”

“Uh, I’m not sure about that, but it looks like that anyway.”

Ibella let out an awkward laugh.

After a while, she cleared her throat briefly and continued silently.

“Hmm! So… … .”

Ibella looked at Ulan from the corner of her eye, as if checking his reaction. Then he spoke cautiously with a rather nervous face.

“If it’s okay, would you like to come see me again later?”

Just the two of us like last time.

She wanted to add this condition.

But I couldn’t even continue speaking.

This is because Perticia suddenly sensed a strange atmosphere and barged in.

“Ah, Ulan! “Look over there.”

She quickly grabs Ulan’s arm.

Perticia said with a smile, pointing to a hotel directly opposite the theater.

“This is the restaurant where we first met!”

“Hmm, I see.”

Hotel Parvo.

This is the hotel where we stayed last summer vacation, when Noah and I were wandering around the capital looking for Einer’s orb.

When Ulan, recalling old memories, was about to say yes, Perticia’s gaze turned to Noah.

“You probably met Noah at that time too, right?”

“that’s right. “It was like that.”

Noah also nodded.

As if I remembered what happened at that time.

“Right? “I’m not remembering wrong, am I?”

Perticia keeps asking questions.

To this, Ulan and Noah both responded in the affirmative. Then, at that moment, Perticia’s eyes suddenly became cold.

“But it’s a little strange.”

“huh? What?”

“At first glance, I heard that the restaurant is only open to hotel guests. So that means Ulan and Noah stayed at the hotel, right?”

“… … ah.”

Oh my, I got hit!

Noah looked embarrassed at Perticia’s attack, which caught him off guard.

“You stayed overnight at a hotel?”

“And alone with Ulan?”

At the same time, Delia and Ibella’s eyes narrowed. Noah swallowed his dry saliva as his eyes were not only cold but even murderous.

“Well, I couldn’t help it at that time. The day was over, and there was no carriage to return to the academy… … .”

“so?”

“Instead, nothing happened! Really!”

Noah hastily claims his innocence.

At this, Delia quickly withdrew her suspicions. After verifying with my mind’s eye, I realized that Noah’s words were true.

On the other hand, Ibella and Perticia, who did not have these abilities, still looked at Noah with suspicious eyes shining.

“Hmm, it looks suspicious… … .”

“Are you sure nothing really happened?”

“It’s real!”

Noah shouted as if it was unfair.

Around that time, the argument continued for a while.

The Ulan group finally arrived at their final destination. It was the mansion of the Earl of Dermore family in the southern district of the capital.

But the moment we arrived at the mansion.

“This is the Dermore family mansion.”

“Outsiders are not allowed to enter.”

The guards guarding the entrance raised their spears and blocked the group’s path. Then Noah pointed at Ulan and himself and said,

“Tell Count Dermore that Ulan Bator and Noah Darshen have arrived.”

“Do you by any chance have an appointment with the Count?”

“No, it’s not like that… … .”

“Then you can’t go in.”

A cold, firm answer.

Noah was momentarily taken aback by the completely different reaction from when he first visited the mansion.

But even for a moment.

She cleared her throat briefly and thought of another way to enter the mansion.

“Well, then, please at least bring the head deacon. “He would know us.”

Alond, the head butler of the Count Dermore.

It was clear that he remembered the faces of Ulan and Noah. But what came back was still an answer as blunt as a machine.

“As I just said, you cannot enter unless you have made an appointment in advance.”

“Please go back now.”

It looks like he has no intention of getting out of the way.

Just as I was sighing at the frustrating situation, I heard Ibella and Perticia whispering.

“If we’re going to fight like this, wouldn’t it be better to just sneak in and investigate?”

“that’s right. “I think it will work then.”

Both of their words had a point.

Because Ulan and his party had the ability to sneak into the mansion without being discovered by the guards.

‘But you shouldn’t do that.’

If the one behind Count Dermore is really Lacus, the crying eyeball, he will definitely be noticed the moment he secretly enters the mansion.

‘There is no need to instill unnecessary caution.’

Therefore, Noah planned to attack them head on, presenting an appropriate purpose for his visit.

To act as if he didn’t know Count Dermore’s secret. However, to do that, you must first enter the mansion.

So, just as I was thinking about it.

A familiar face appeared from the direction of the mansion’s annex. He was an old gentleman neatly dressed in a black suit.

“hmm? You must… … .”

“Deacon!”

It was Alond, the head deacon.

As Noah expected, he recognized Ulan at a glance, and Noah later explained to Alond the whole story that led him to visit the mansion.

“Hmm, I see.”

Of course, he left out any stories related to the abyss and said he was just here to report on the current situation.

Meanwhile, Alond, hearing this, kept shaking his head and then made an awkward expression.

“I am truly sorry to those who came here on purpose, but the Count is not currently at the mansion.”

“yes? Then where… … .”

“You went to the imperial castle on business.”

The word Hwangseong suddenly popped out.

At this, Perticia flinched reflexively, and Noah asked back in embarrassment.

“Well, then when are you coming?”

“I don’t know much about that. However, he will probably continue to stay in the imperial castle for the time being.”

After giving a calm answer.

Alond bowed his head respectfully.

“I will speak to the Count separately. “I will give you a formal invitation later, so I think it would be best for you to leave today.”

It was a clear order to congratulate guests.

Noah looked devastated at the situation being completely different from what he expected.

‘If this happens, it’s really… … .’

Should I sneak in and find out?

As his thoughts were gradually leaning towards that direction, a clear, off-white voice suddenly came from behind Alond.

“Are you your father’s guest?”

A person who appears out of nowhere.

She was a girl with golden hair and a similar build to Noah. Meanwhile, Alonde’s eyes widened at the girl’s appearance.

“Oh, lady?!”

“Then, come inside for a moment and have some tea. “It’s not polite to send away guests who have come for a long time like this.”

“But master… … .”

“I will tell my father separately. So please let them inside quickly.”

Alond reacted to a single word from the girl, feeling embarrassed and not knowing what to do. At this, Ulan looked at the girl, as if her curiosity arose.

“Who are you?”

“Oh, excuse me. “The introduction is late.”

A girl I had never seen before when I first visited this mansion. She bowed politely, holding both ends of her skirt.

“nice to meet you. “My name is Jurpe Dermore, daughter of Demuel Ron Dermore.”

The girl, who confidently announced her name, looked at Ulan and Noah and smiled.

For some reason, it was with a pale face.
