Helmut Episode

75

When I stretched out my hand and tried to grab him by the collar, Helmut swerved to avoid it. Eren suddenly waved his hand in the air and gritted his teeth. Helmut glanced at him and asked.

“What are you doing?”

“You tripped on your run!”

The guys who saw Eren fall nodded, muttering ‘I don’t know.’ Because it was a well-paved playground, there were not many falls.

“It must be an illusion. “Why do you blame me for falling so stupidly?”

Helmut responded shamelessly. Of course I walked. He kept trying to hit me with his elbow, so I just repaid him. What he did was a kind of self-defense.

“what? “This commoner bastard looks at me like a bigot!”

Eren rushed at me again, waving his hand. However, Helmut was unable to avoid him, so he kept waving his hands in the air.

“Are you going to keep running away like a rat?”

“You are too slow.”

Helmut kindly pointed this out.

“You wouldn’t even be able to catch a real mouse with moves like that.”

Rather than feeling bad, it felt the same. A weak guy who is not worth dealing with starts a fight without knowing anything. This is something that rarely happens in the Forest of Pahe. A weak person climbing up presumptuously. After experiencing this frustrating situation a few times, I got used to it.

‘I too am becoming humanized.’

Helmut was secretly impressed by his ability to adapt.

“this person!”

Eren’s face turned red with anger as he continued to mess around. If I had a sword, I would have cut this guy down right away.

“Eren, what kind of thing is that!”

Sabbat, who was worse than him, called him. I also thought that it was time for the instructor to return.

“Leave that commoner alone! “Please pay me back in spades later.”

The voice was loud enough for even those who didn’t know that Helmut was a commoner to know. Eren gritted his teeth but stepped back. I had just started to notice something strange about Helmut avoiding his hand so easily.

“huh? Commoner guy? “Did you call me?”

At that moment, Asuka walked around the playground with a cheerful expression on her face. No matter where you looked, he looked far from helpless and had a refreshing smile on his face, but those who knew him slowly took a step back. Sabbat clicked his tongue.

“What are you again?”

“me? “He’s a commoner?”

Sabat shouted, looking Asuka up and down.

“How many commoners are there in the swordsmanship department?”

Someone touched Sabat’s shoulder. It was an existing student who I had just become friends with.

“The instructor is coming.”

“Ah yes.”

Sabat pointed at Helmut and sneered.

“Well, take care. “Two commoners.”

When instructor Alan came, the disturbed atmosphere was corrected. The instructor handed out wooden swords to everyone one by one.

“From now on, sparring and practice will be done with that. If there is any damage, please report it to the academy administration office. “Don’t lose it and bring it to class.”

It was a good, hard wooden sword made of ebony wood. Helmut looked at the wooden sword in his hand. His name was engraved on the handle of the wooden sword.

“Today is the first day, so the guys who have been playing so far will have to get a feel for it. Each person should train their body or practice their sword. “Sparring is prohibited!”

“yes!”

A loud shout broke out. Instructor Alan’s eyes suddenly fell on Asuka, who was standing behind the swordsmanship students.

“You Asuka. “Is the playground already occupied?”

“Sure.”

In fact, he didn’t even turn halfway, but everyone was focusing their attention on Helmut, so no one noticed how much he walked around the playground.

“Okay then, feel free to practice for the rest of your time! more!”

‘I guess it’s because it’s the first day. ‘Is it all over after going around the playground?’

I’ve already heard from Ethan that there won’t be much on the first day, but it feels a bit empty. It was my first class at an educational institution. Helmut had only received private lessons, but had never learned anything in a group setting with so many people before. It was amazing and different at the same time.

‘What kind of training should I do?’

The campus was spacious and I was able to practice without bumping into other people. Helmut pondered. Everyone was paying attention to him, especially the transfer students. Even Instructor Alan glanced at Helmut. It was not a place to show off Darian’s sword skills. It would be good to show off basic training or continental swordsmanship. Helmut made up his mind and tried to move to a corner seat.

At that time, someone came up and spoke to me. It was Asuka, a blue-haired boy with a smile on his pure white face.

“Hey, you say you’re a commoner?”

“that’s right.”

Helmut agreed. There are already rumors, so there is no reason to deny it.

“I’m a commoner too.”

“okay?”

Ironically, the two people with the fairest skin in this swordsmanship department were not from noble families. The saying that you can’t judge a person just by looking at the outside seemed to be true.

“Shall we shake hands?”

The guy held out his hand with a smiling face. Helmut did not hold his hand. Even though it wasn’t a murderous intention, it was because I sensed that the other person didn’t feel any goodwill. under! Asuka snorted.

“But you’re quick-witted.”

Bis was blooming in my hands. If we had held hands, we would have held on tightly and squeezed it painfully. Helmut may not have taken it lightly.

“Let me warn you in advance. Don’t treat me like a commoner for no reason. I don’t like it when people pretend to be friends. “It seems like you have a lot of enemies, so don’t ask me for help.”

‘Is it the Area family?’

It was something I heard somewhere. Actually, since I started sharing the same room with Area, I haven’t had any friction. Helmut suddenly remembered a certain memory.

“Ah, you are that guy.”

“What am I?”

“Crazy dog.”

“this!”

Helmut looked at the opponent, who immediately burst into tears and raised his fist, without raising an eyebrow. A physique worthy of being ranked at the bottom of the swordsmanship department. However, contrary to what meets the eye, he is a guy with skills that Helmut will remember. The standing posture, the look in the eyes, and the energy felt were different. This guy can probably handle Vis pretty well.

“Don’t start a fight. “I don’t want to be suspended anymore, right?”

Asuka glanced at Instructor Alan and lowered her hand. He starts a fight and says absurd things.

‘Do I look easy?’

I don’t know how many times I got into a fight when I came to Baden. Helmut did not look docile. However, rather than the half-conscious followers of Area, Eren, Sabbat, and the Asuka in front of me, as well as other members of the swordsmanship department, seemed to naturally put Helmut under their control.

‘That’s right, I hid my energy.’

Helmut is completely packing his vis inside. Although his eyes are scary, he doesn’t feel like a particularly strong opponent. Moreover, Helmut was known as a commoner. Various prejudices destroyed his weak instincts and made him look like a weak person.

‘Can I prove it during sparring?’

It is a position that requires consideration in many ways. Because of this, the thought of not causing problems changes to wanting to change the situation even if it causes problems. A ferocious feeling slowly arose.

On a whim, Asuka changed her face and smiled. He waved his hand friendly and walked away.

“Anyway, take care of yourselves from now on, commoner friend.”

‘I don’t think he’s an easy guy.’

Whether Helmut was doing well or not was none of Asuka’s business. All you have to do is just watch.

***

After finishing his undergraduate swordsmanship class and the afternoon liberal arts class, Helmut returned to his dormitory. As I opened the door with the key and entered, I felt a presence. The curtain in the center of the room was half lifted. He was disgusted when we first shared a room, but he seems to be getting used to it. Area was walking around the room with a toothbrush in her mouth and looked up when she saw him.

“How was your first class?”

The question was uncharacteristically mumbling… Helmut couldn’t find the right expression. Area sometimes evoked feelings in Helmut for the first time. Area interpreted his lack of response differently.

“Have you been fighting since day one?”

“Do I look like a good person to start a fight?”

“you? at all.”

Area shook her head.

“But why…”

“Well, the guys in the swordsmanship department are very big. You’re probably looking down on someone who’s smaller than you. This is a problem that will be solved over time, if you show your skills. “With Instructor Ethan as your guardian, you can’t fight as you want.”

But that presupposes that Helmut must endure until time passes. Asuka seemed to have stopped paying attention to Helmut, but the other person cleverly started an argument when the instructor wasn’t looking. Things like blocking my path or saying something dismissive. Even if something as trivial as a bug continues to happen, it can’t help but be annoying.

Helmut’s solution was simple. It will make it impossible for anyone to argue with Helmut forever. Because dead people don’t speak.

Helmut asked Area again as she finished brushing her teeth and rinsing her mouth.

“other ways?”

Area, who spat out the water, wiped the corners of her mouth and continued speaking.

“You provoke and the opponent attacks you. It’s better if you have an instructor. If not, just give me one hit. After that, even if you make porridge, it will be taken into account. “It’s better if there are multiple opponents.”

“Can I kill you?”

Area was slightly embarrassed. In fact, Area almost never got into a fight. Being his enemy meant turning his followers into enemies. Being stared at and despised by women was something I couldn’t handle mentally.

“…That’s a bit much. The opponent is a nobleman. No matter how much Greta Academy aims for equality among students, will they be silent if you kill a nobleman? “It will be difficult to resolve.”

Area looked at Helmut with sad eyes.

“You seem quite angry. “If only you could say that.”

In fact, even when he wasn’t angry, Helmut could kill someone even if he was only slightly annoyed. Area didn’t think Helmut was like that. Now that I think about it, Area also spoke to Helmut a lot in a rather quarrelsome tone, but strangely he didn’t seem to feel it was a quarrelsome tone. That was a strange discrimination that even Helmut could not understand.

At that time, I heard a knock on the door. Alea furrowed her brows.

“Don’t open it. “Pretend it doesn’t exist.”

“I saw Helmut go in. Please open the door. “I’m Sian!”

Area coldly lifted the curtain and went inside. I was told not to let anyone into my room, but those words were only avoiding Xian, who kept attacking me. This is because it has become a hassle to chase away those who come to visit.

When Helmut opened the door, Sian quickly entered. The guy who had taken up the place like it was his own looked around.

“What about Area?”

“He’s not back yet.”

Helmut decided to pretend that Area was not there. Xian asked optimistically without probing further.

“Friend, how was your day today! “How about academy classes?”

Compared to my usual training, the undergraduate swordsmanship class was uncomfortable because there were a lot of people and fights broke out. But other than that, the liberal arts classes weren’t bad. Helmut enjoyed the learning moment.

“so so.”

“Do you have any questions? “If there’s anything you want to know, ask me.”

Sian thought that since there was no way Helmut would have a friend anyway, he should answer the questions he was curious about. Xian, who was friendly with everyone but not with anyone, also knew about the news about the swordsmanship department. Also, the students of the swordsmanship department are not happy with this commoner transfer student.

Helmut, who was about to say ‘nothing’, suddenly remembered someone.

“Do you know about this guy Asuka?”

“A crazy dog from the swordsmanship department? know. Haven’t I said this before? “That guy is also a commoner.”

“No one touched that guy.”
