Academy Slave Instructor

21 – Philia Serios. The family motto is always giving back.

Philia Serios. The family motto is definitely giving back.

As the morning dawns, the instructor in charge of training changes from Leyla to Xenia.

Xenia, with light blue bobbed hair and a refreshing smile that makes one forget the age of being in her 30s, stands on the podium.

Smooth and kind, Xenia is popular among the academy students. Leyla is also popular, but her stiff attitude and heavy spirit are too scary and difficult to meet in her training, and when Xenia, the complete opposite, appears, the students feel comforted.

“It’s been hard up until now? Don’t worry too much because today is a simple march. You just have to pass a few points through the route determined by each group. We don’t give you more points for arriving early, so come slowly and be on time.”

The academy students who have been given guidance look at them with serious eyes.

The academy students who had already suffered a lot did not believe Xenia no matter how softly she spoke. As she said, the map only shows simple routes, but she may have hidden something else here.

“Really. There is nothing difficult. However, there will be groups with overlapping points. From there, we will change the group members one by one and move to the next point. When we get to the next point, we will change again. Don’t worry, just today we will change groups and march So tomorrow we train again in the same group.”

The academy students looked up at Xenia’s words.

“This training is simple. When you enter the army, you will meet many people. A new unit, a new soldier, a new comrade… This training is a training to adapt to a new environment. The changing team members adapt to the new unit. Please warmly welcome Joe, who acts and receives a new member.”

Looking at Xenia, who puts her hands together and speaks as if asking for a favor, all of her academy students feel the same way.

‘It’s kind.’

She was rumored to be kind, and there was a reason she was entrusted with this training. If the previous training focused on how to respond to surprises and solve problems, this time we just look at how the new characters pair up.

She was so kind when she said, “It’s boring just walking, but please cheer up.” There was a bit of confusion, but her warm smile eased the students’ expressions.

“The Queen is our Zoro!!”

Arya is taken aback by the sudden cry and looks to her side. The group next to her is gathering in a circle and uniting, hoping that since yesterday she will take Aria, which has even been added to her nickname of “Queen.”

“If you’re lucky enough to take our miser, one of them will be eliminated.”

When Rai put his elbow on Aria’s shoulder and spoke, Joe, who had become one with her shoulder, became quiet and looked at each other.

When she was about to clean up her messy atmosphere and move to the next point, the girl whose eyes met Zeroa raised her thumb once and moved first with her daughter.

“Hey – that’s good. Did you flirt with her girl?”

“Oh, no. I never did.”

Looking at Aria’s notice, Zeroa, who hurriedly said, spoke again.

“That… The instructor told me to give it… I thanked him for giving it to me.”

What Zeroa said was deer meat.

Since she openly provoked the starving people to eat meat, she said that she should be released to some extent, and Lai ordered her to secretly share a piece with each group she wanted.

Rai gave it to Asran, and Sesset gave it to her best friend Philia.

“So you’re not saying that she seduced you with something to eat? This bastard isn’t being coy?”

“Oh, no. I owe her debt to her before.”

“Who else? Who did you seduce for food?”

Rye, who did not listen to Zeroa, persistently clung to him and teased him. Arya, who eats street food once a week with Zeroa, quietly looks at him.

Turning her target to her this time, her lie leans back with her elbow on her shoulder.

“Who gave the miser?”

“I, I! Why don’t I ask?”

“You must have given him. I’m not interested in easy answers.”

She raises her hand and asks, but Rai shakes her hand and gestures to go away. Then, when Rai, who turned her head away with her swish, looked at her aria as if demanding an answer from her, she looked at one side without saying a word.

Within Arya’s eyes, four students from the academy were sitting around and praying with her on her knees with something in the middle.

“……What is that?”

“You have obtained the relic.”

Seeing her rai with her tired face, sesset explains.

From noble mtl dot com

“Victory to our goddess!!”

“Uraaa!!”

Crying out loud, the four stood up, politely put the cloth-wrapped venison into their backpacks, and started screaming.

“……Here…Are you okay here?”

“Cultists are strong, so that’s fine.”

“No, the mind is the problem.”

“They say that faith is a great strength. It’s enough if you have hope to live. By the way, we are also starting. Since we have to say goodbye to someone at the next point, let’s say goodbye in advance.”

Perhaps ashamed of her fanatics, Aria quietly follows Sessett with her head slightly bowed.

* * *

While walking towards her goal, Gibbard sees the back of Philia’s head.

As always, she aims only at her goal with clear eyes.

Philia was embarrassed for arguing with Rai, and Ron is not interested in her training. Just looking at her tight shoulders, not to mention Somneri, who felt frustrated, Gilbard thought that he was the only one who excelled among them.

If he had known that training was a personal evaluation, he would have been the captain. He regrets giving the captain to Filia because he was embarrassed for messing around for no reason.

A generous heart caught my ankle.

Wouldn’t he learn something by bowing down to other people’s groups without a backbone, giving up food on his own, and constantly quarreling with himself because he was jealous of himself who received a lot of points?

But now it’s time to show who the captain is. When we get to the point, we will start changing the group, so the only time we have all the group is now.

Gilbard sneaked through Philia’s backpack yesterday and stole her food. If the food runs out, it becomes her mistake in managing it. In order to organize quickly, breakfast was taken out in advance, so that stupid b*tch still doesn’t know that the food is gone.

Now, the unqualified must step off the stage.

Gill Bard hides a sinister smile and calls for Philia as he advances towards her.

“Hey, Philia.”

I stopped at his call and Filia looked up. Whenever he faces fearless eyes full of power, Gilbard’s stomach twists.

Thinking that his cheeky eyes will lose their luster now, Philia speaks first the moment he tries to speak to her.

“My family motto must be returned.”

“What?”

“When I was young, I didn’t like it because it was too aggressive and threatened me not to touch it. Looking at the family mottos of other families, there were many wonderful words such as trust is not bought with words.”

Not knowing what she was talking about, Gilvard, as well as Ron and Somneri, who were behind her, looked at Philia with dazed eyes.

But she doesn’t pay attention to her gaze and keeps talking.

“I will definitely give it back. I still do not accept it as a family motto. I want to believe that this world is not a world where we can live only by sharpening our edges. But I am not a dreamer, so I believe that injustice definitely exists.”

“Did you turn?”

“And I don’t condone injustice. Especially when it’s close.”

Ignoring Gilbard who asked with a stern look on her face, Philia stared straight at him.

“Gilbard, where’s the food?”

He said what he had to say, and the speechless Gillvard froze.

As a chill creeps up his back and tightens his neck, he rolls his eyes here and there.

“Si, you manage the food, so why, why ask me!”

“Because you stole it.”

Somneri gasps in surprise at Philia’s words. As an academy employee from a distance looks on with interest, Gilbard makes a loud noise.

“Someone steals! I don’t know anything! You, you… Yes, did you lose your food? Then you put it on me?”

“Gilbard.”

When she called her by her short name, Gilvard shut his mouth, then hurriedly tried to open it again when Ron stepped forward and said:

“Ah- I didn’t expect it to explode like this.”

As Ron comes out with a friendly smile, Gilbard stares at him, but Ron ignores him and stands next to Philia, smiling brightly.

“I told you.”

“You!! You bastard!”

“Who is the rat who stole the food? Squeak squeak!!”

Gilbard, whose anger rose to the tip of his head, spat out an angry roar, but Ron imitated the mouse with both hands and rather played with him.

Somneri, who had been watching her, quietly went to Philia, and Gill Bard, who was left alone, became even more angry at the eyes of his teammates watching him.

“Are you guys really going to stick with that b*tch? How much damage have you done to us so far, so nerdy!! Don’t you come here?! Those two b*tches got stuck and got me into a trap! Don’t you still get it?!”

Seeing Gilbard lose her cool and say anything, Ron shakes her head in regret, but inwardly laughs.

Philia, still listening to Gilbard, opens her mouth when he pauses her words to catch his breath.

“Gilbard. You are executed.”

“… What?”

It’s training, but at the word execution, Gilbard looked at me dumbfounded. The two people standing next to her also turn their heads to her with her blank eyes.

“You have violated the military law. Disobedience, disrespect, slander, embezzlement of military supplies. I have the authority to execute you with a summary execution assuming a wartime situation on all counts.”

“f*ck, what nonsense…”

“Is that possible?”

Philia ignores her swearing Gibbard and asks the academy staff away.

Receiving attention, he stayed still as if he didn’t want to care, then shrugged his shoulders.

“It’s possible, but summary execution doesn’t happen very often because there’s a lot to prove, and even if you prove it, you can’t escape suspicion. It’s usually used to deal with your nemesis politically.”

The last words are a kind of warning not to do useless things. This situation is not welcome for employees whose purpose is to complete the training safely.

“The proof is that Mr. Dudley, who is of a higher rank than us, should suffice.”

Academy employee Dudley only smiled bitterly when he said that even if he told him not to do it, he didn’t answer, but as if he didn’t mind, Philia took her eyes off him and looked at Gilbard.

Philia says to Gilbard, who is making a stupid expression because he doesn’t know how the situation is going.

“Gilbard. You are the death penalty. Put down your backpack and get out of training.”

“f*ck! By what authority do you have!!”

“Your favorite Imperial Army’s martial law. You idiot.”

Gilbard’s face was dumbfounded at Philia’s curse, which had been spoken politely and firmly until now.

“You should have done it in moderation, nerd. You will now be labeled as being executed for violating military law during training. You will be labeled for the rest of your life. Just as instructor Layla said, you live while trying to die in the academy to get rid of that label.”

“……”

Life flows from Gilbard’s frozen body. Philia, standing right in front of her, doesn’t do anything and stares at her confidently, but Somneri hesitates and shifts her position behind Philia’s back.

“That’s it.”

Dudley blocks the gap between the two and looks down at Gilbard.

Among the academy staff, there are many who cannot become lecturers and are working as temporary staff. It’s not as good as the instructors, but they also went out and did a lot of activities and have a lot of experience.

Especially, for such large-scale training, they have to take on the role of protecting the academy students, so only those recruited this time have experience in military activities.

When Dudley, who had strengthened himself, told him to step back, Gilbard screamed in anger.

“You hear that nonsense?! Death penalty?! Come here b*tch! I’ll put you to death!”

“Gilbard-kun. You’re eliminated.”

“……”

Looking at Gilbard, who was getting angry, Dudley spoke briefly without changing his expression.

“According to military law, the death penalty is punishable. Army Gilbard was executed and dropped from training.”

“This…”

“You can make a complaint to Instructor Layla. In the report, there is not a single misspelling in the conversation we just had, so the instructor will evaluate it properly if there is something unfair.”

When Layla’s name was mentioned, Gilbard said nothing and averted his gaze.

Gilbard sits with his back against a tree while Dudley fires the elimination flare and waits for another employee to take him away. Ron tells Philia with a bright expression, as if he likes the blank eyes that seem out of his mind somewhere.

“Okay, now that the trouble is over, what are you going to do? Philia.”

“Ron Asten.”

When Philia softly calls his name, Ron, realizing that the atmosphere is not serious, shuts her mouth and waits for her next words.

“Why did you tell me about cheating?”

“I told you. Gilbard’s actions are going too far. I don’t know if it’s just a fight of emotions, but as you said, the Imperial Army shouldn’t break the military law.”

Hearing Ron mention the Imperial Army as if to ask Gilbard in her corner to listen, Philia nods her head and grabs his shoulder with one hand.

“I said I don’t forgive injustice in the immediate vicinity. No, it’s not injustice. It’s exactly the ones I don’t like.”

“……”

Ron laughs awkwardly as he feels the weight in his hand on his shoulder.

Even though she can’t use mana, Philia’s momentum is unusual. When Ron thinks of her excuses at the force of her body, she says again that Philia is.

“You are the guide from now on. Take my part. You can do it. Don’t be comfortable alone.”

“Yeah, okay.”

“And don’t mess with it for fun.”

Ron couldn’t answer the last word. Philia was already aware of his actions.

She

She thought she was hiding it well, but when her true feelings were discovered, Ron shuddered at her shame as if she were naked. Philia, who grabbed her and tapped her on the shoulder, approached Somneri.

A frightened Somneri narrows her body and lowers her head since two of her have already fallen out on her philia.

She was scared of her as if she were in front of her bully, but Philia ignored her and went to her Gilbard. It was Somneri who was relieved that she lived, but her Dudley, who had been watching her 8th from the beginning, knew that her philia considered her unworthy to deal with, and she clicked her tongue slightly.

As a result, all of Group 8 except Philia are eliminated. Ron and Somneri may be able to finish training, but they won’t be too far behind the eliminated Gilbad.

On the contrary, Philia, who brought her crew and dragged her all the way here, gets a high score. However, her record book will have an ambiguous assessment that she arbitrarily executed her training situation. Whether it will be poison or medicine, she will only know in the future.

“Gilbard, where is the food?”

Filia asks the distraught Gilbard, but he doesn’t answer.

“Gilbard, where is the food?”

“Go away, b*tch. Do you think I can tell you?”

As I asked again with the same words, a furious Gilbard shouted. His eyes filled with anger soon turn into smiles as they roll down the corners of his eyes.

“Try to survive without food. You can survive for a day! No big deal!”

“Is it in your backpack?”

Philia, ignoring her answer as she questioned him, looks at her Ron. Ron, who had been still, was startled by Philia’s gaze and rummaged through Gilbard’s backpack, while Somneri restlessly snooped next to her.

I took out a lot of stuff and looked for the bottom of my backpack, but I couldn’t find any food. Seeing Ron show the inside of the empty backpack, Gilbard giggles.

“You dared to betray me and it’s disgusting. Like before, you clung to the other group and fawned over it! Would you like to share some food just in case?”

“I have already shared the food.”

Gilbard looks at him blankly, but Philia, not paying attention to him, goes to the bonfire she’s been waiting for, takes out the venison she gave her, and throws it at Ron.

When the cloth is peeled off and delicious red flesh comes out, the eyes of the two people who have been starving for so long shine.

At Philia’s short command to grill, the two quickly prepare to grill the meat. It was the fastest thing the two did during training.

As the meat is grilled and the smell spreads, Gilbad grits his teeth and glares at Philia.

“Did you frame me while you had food?”

“……”

Philia ignores the chattering Gilbard as if it didn’t exist. She then approaches him with a small package of grilled meat.

She swears, but she can’t overcome her appetite, so Philia, who passed him in anticipation, gives her meat to Dudley.

“Have some.”

“Is this a bribe?”

“What is written in the report must be true. Do you need a bribe?”

Looking at Philia as she spoke with a smile, Dudley’s observations made him think that she wasn’t all that nice.

Until now, the evaluation tended to be swayed, and it was too good to respond to the malicious complaints or insistence of the team members, but it was an opportunity for a new evaluation to be used.

For Dudley, who has been working with Team 8 and filled his stomach with dry amounts that are convenient to carry, fresh meat was a welcome thing, but he refused to be seen and not involved as much as possible.

“I don’t exist, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

Philia then sets her packaged meat down on the ground.

“I see. Then, if you leave it here, someone will eat it. Something invisible. Or…”

“……”

“Like a rat.”

Looking at Gilbard, Philia laughs.

She was Dudley, who looked at her smile and agonized over whether to write it as vicious or good-natured, rather than correcting it as not good.
