I Became an Academy Attack Helicopter

103 – Chapter 34. Fortune – 4

– 104 –

The Eitian Empire is a power located widely in the northern part of the continent of Ireland.

Atian, which was a small and medium-sized kingdom before the Shinma War in the past, almost monopolized trade with the Easel Continent and grew wealth, then expanded its power at once by absorbing neighboring countries that had become a mess after the war.

In the process, there was not a lot of friction with the Holy Kingdom, which faced the border. It is said that a non-aggression pact was signed in order to show respect for the Holy Kingdom Levalan, which has had a great influence on the entire continent after the Shinma War.

“And that is only true when there is no involvement of demons.”

Research Center Underground Demon Monitoring Center.

The image of the continent where the human race lives was displayed on a large billboard.

Iland, where we live, is on the right side of the map, and Pavis ruled by Chromium is on the left side of the map.

The easel where Shinma War took place in the past was located at the top of the map.

The route of the floating archipelago was roughly marked in the Alsyang (洋) where small islands were scattered.

The agent belonging to the intelligence department who started the explanation pointed to a flashing red light.

“Currently, we are monitoring the major cities of Ireland with a spy network. Judging from the previous precedent, it is highly likely that demons will work in the countryside or remote areas as well as in large cities, but we cannot monitor all of them.”

In the end, due to practical limitations, we had no choice but to protect the places where people and infrastructure were properly installed.

“How is the situation in ATIAN?”

People’s attention was drawn to my question.

I, who is one of the youngest people gathered here, stood out in many ways.

The person who answered the question was an old gentleman with a white beard.

“I will answer that, Erif-sama.”

Putting on thick glasses, he raised the baton on the table and pointed to the electronic board.

“I do not know how much you know, so I will explain briefly from the beginning. After the death of the emperor of the Eitian Empire, the second prince launched a coup d’état, and the prince fled to the area near the Republic of Estial. The prince, who has a base near the capital and not touched there, is deprived of the capital and is unable to use his powers.”

“Are there any chances that the Crown Prince will pass over to the Republic?”

“Not a lot. There are rumors that he has already requested asylum, but we are not certain.”

“As soon as you exile, your position within the Empire will decrease drastically.”

Everyone in the room nodded.

At this point, it seems that the second prince’s coup d’état was successful. However, an important issue remains.

“The problem is demons.”

“Yes. The suspicion that the second prince had colluded with the demons has been constantly presented. There are not many eyewitnesses, probably because it is hidden as much as possible, but they say that they have a number of units of unknown affiliation and weapons that cannot be seen anywhere.”

I remembered the picture I saw last time.

Even if the photo was released, it was difficult to drive the white-haired vampire into a demon.

Because the picture was too blurry and there was no big difference from a human on the outside.

The demons really had a variety of appearances, but these days, with the development of power armor, it would be difficult to distinguish between humans and demons if you pack up an army of guys with roughly human-like body types.

That’s why I can’t get past the level of suspicion.

During the Shinma War, it was very easy to identify the enemy.

“The Republic of Estial has contacted me to request assistance.”

A middle-aged man in military uniform sitting at the table heard light sighs from everywhere.

It seemed difficult to avoid participating in the war.

“Erif. I think you will have to use a lot of energy in the helicopter unit.”

“Are you mobilizing students for war?”

He shot with a sharp tone, but the middle-aged man in military uniform who spoke his words shook his head.

“I don’t mean to fight. The helicopters deployed will be mainly for transport or rescue.”

“Still, it’s about going to and from the battlefield.”

If you make up your mind to teach a transport helicopter, you will be able to fly it safely within a few weeks.

There were actually a few soldiers who taught me how to fly.

The middle-aged man in military uniform hesitated and opened his mouth.

“No matter how humane it is, if soldiers of our kingdom set foot on the battlefield of another country, there is a risk that it will immediately become a diplomatic issue.”

“Are the military academy students okay?”

“Yes. There is a clever way out of international law.”

“Ttt.”

When I unknowingly kicked my tongue, the people in the room started to notice me.

I lifted my tired eyes and looked around.

The giants in the fields of diplomacy, military, intelligence, and internal affairs were avoiding my gaze.

Adults anyway.

“Well, you don’t have to think so badly. Wouldn’t experience be the best education?”

“I don’t think there is a need to experience that life is one.”

“Hummm.”

When the old gentleman with glasses left, this time a middle-aged man in military uniform stepped forward.

“If you are in the 2nd or 3rd year of the military academy, you are old enough to be treated as an adult. In the past 10 years war, people of the same age were also conscripted into the military.”

“Hmm.”

It made sense.

In wartime conditions, military academy students are treated as reserve officers.

To criticize the state for being a student soldier, he was originally a soldier, and to be accused of being a soldier, he was a student, so this was vague.

Perhaps he was aiming for that.

“Still, I want to put the safety of my friends and students first.”

“Of course. We also don’t want to lose our valuable talents. Operations focused on civilian rescue and transportation of goods in the safe rear area will be predominant.”

At this point, it was hard for me to hang on the other side.

Without being able to, they gave the answers they wanted.

“Please refrain from speaking as much as possible on the side of the Republic or Empire.”

“Okay, Erif-sama.”

I didn’t like it when people in high positions crawled like I was the commander-in-chief of the military.

I’m still a student, and there’s no guarantee that I’ll become the guardian deity of this country as they wish, so it’s just a burden.

It doesn’t matter if you hang on to a rope that isn’t strong enough, but I don’t want you to criticize it later.

The final exam is almost finished.

I was playing after finishing the exam because there were only a few subjects, so Ireana called me.

It was Ireana’s room, not the 4th floor of the old school that I always met.

The room was not particularly fancy for being royalty.

When you see the clothesline hanging high in the room and the books on the desk, everyone will think it’s an ordinary student’s room.

Come to think of it, I couldn’t live a splendid life because I lived in hiding in the royal palace.

Ireana didn’t shy away from showing her a slightly messy room.

“Hello. Long time no see.”

“Hello, Erif.”

Ireana, who greeted her with her bright smile, brought out her small chatter.

Study talk, test talk.

I’m curious about the 2nd grade class that you won’t be able to hear.

Speaking with excitement, Ireana gets excited.

He was originally this lively.

“What’s going on?”

Whether it was a question that struck her, Ireana was speechless.

She wiped the smile from her face and bit her mouth.

Ireana hugged her own arms and bowed her head.

“I’m leaving next week.”

“That’s right.”

She said she was leaving after freshman year, but she said she was leaving as soon as winter break started. She

I thought she was going to finish the closing ceremony.

“The situation is the situation. Demons are in trouble here and there. It seems like they want to announce the birth of a saint in the Holy Kingdom as soon as possible.”

It seems that they are in a hurry in the Holy Kingdom because of the problems of the empire.

Ireana raised her head again.

And she hesitated for a moment before reaching out her tiny hand.

“I said goodbye to my other friends, but I won’t say goodbye to Erif.”

“Then what about this?”

When Ireana asked looking down at her outstretched hand, she smiled broadly.

“It means that I wish you all the best in the future.”

She tried to count her intentions of her Ireana for a moment before she slowly took her hand.

Her small, warm hand grabbed mine quite strongly.

But why did you look so scared before?

Looking back at her Ireana’s words, I can see why.

“Do you like this place?”

“Yes?”

“Is it difficult to leave this school because you like your friends?”

Various expressions flashed across Ireana’s face.

Joy, sadness, joy, sadness, shame, and resignation.

This child was a stranger like me.

The created divinity. Created spirit.

None of them were human.

It made a little sense of her feelings so she might be feeling.

She must have loved the time she had to talk, learn and compete with her peers, whom she had met for the first time.

So did I.

She doesn’t know how she feels to have to put everything down and leave.

I’ll find out next year.

He hugged her crying Ireana silently.

After a while, she said thank you and gently pushed me away.

“I’m sorry. I don’t think she was a good senior.”

At my words, Ireana shook her head.

“It’s okay. Because Erif was a great teacher.”

Saint Chick has a talent to put the listeners to shame.

Looking at each other and smiling, Ireana clapped her hands as if she had suddenly remembered.

“That’s right. There’s supposed to be her appointment as a saint in a month. Could she come over then?”

“Well. It’s vacation time, so it’s okay. I have an acquaintance with the pope, and Selmeier’s side has a close relationship with Levalan, so I won’t stop him.”

Ireana put on a surprised expression when she heard that she knew the pope.

She is talking about the last time she met the pope with the king, when the communicator rang.

“Wait a minute. Hello?”

“Erif-sama. It has begun.”

He was an uncle who belonged to the intelligence department.

Ireana’s escort and guard, Ermera’s superior, and a person who secretly supports me.

“Uh, general manager? What started?”

“If you read the news, you’ll know. Can you come to the Demon Monitoring Center in an hour?」

“Yes. It’s okay.”

“Then let’s talk more about it there.”

After finishing the communication, she turned on the TV in Ireana’s room.

When I turned it back to the news channel, there was a big title of 『The outbreak of civil war in the Aetian Empire』.

Just in time, the announcer was explaining the outline of the case.

“This morning, the Crown Prince of the Eitian Empire, whose whereabouts were unknown, issued a statement. The second prince of the empire and the army under his command were called ‘rebels’ and requested the cooperation of the princes of the empire.”

“Therefore, the Republic of Estial immediately declared the dispatch of troops to the Empire for the purpose of protecting the Crown Prince and suppressing the rebels…….”

The video shows the speech of the President of the Republic.

After that, I saw tanks marching in a row, probably a training scene.

Ireana sat on her bed and turned her head to watch her TV with her blurred eyes.

I put my hand on her shoulder and sighed.

“Sorry. I don’t think I can go.”

“It’s okay. I heard that we could send a helicopter unit instead.”

“Who is it?”

“Well. Do you know any seniors?”

Who are you, you idiot who just released top secret information.

As she sighed lightly, Ireana looked up at me with her serious eyes.

“So, be careful.”

“No worries. Who am i No matter how ugly he is, he’s a humanoid spirit. Great Demon Specialist.”

I tried to make a bulge with her arm, but Ireana couldn’t release her stiff expression.

I understand that you are worried about other friends, but you don’t need to worry about me, who has run all sorts of tactics so far.

After appeasing her anxious Ireana, she left her room for her meeting.

Since this is the floor where first-year students are mainly located, first-year juniors in the hallway recognized me and bowed their heads.

She waved her hand moderately and left the dormitory.

It’s a civil war by the way.

Maybe the demons will show up in earnest.

I am a humanoid spirit created to fight demons.

The time has come to show that identity without regret.

The meeting place changed, so I entered the castle with the intelligence agents.

Did you even bring a military uniform?

The briefing was concise and quick.

After the stial apologized for what I solved last year, it is said that some information about the Crown Prince was handed over.

“The current prince of the empire is here. It is said to be located in the Marvilles region near the Republic. It is easy to receive support from the Republic, and it is close to the metropolitan area, where its forces are concentrated, so the troops under its control are more gathered than expected.”

In the briefing of the intelligence agent, the generals talked about it.

“How do you see the power of the Crown Prince and the Prince?”

“Considering the actual force the empire has, there are many troops under the Crown Prince, but it is said that units armed with strangely strong and new weapons are appearing one after another.”

“Demon.”

The intelligence agent nodded once and called the officer in charge of commanding the army.

He looked straight at me and started explaining the role of the helicopter unit.

The point was simple.

The pilot class students belonging to the helicopter unit who have completed all the final exams are now in charge of transporting materials and personnel.

The Marvilles region, which is close to the Republic, has a lot of mountainous terrain, so it often takes a long time to travel by car.

It was decided to dispatch a large number of transport helicopter units in charge of evacuating civilians and transporting troops.

“We plan to mobilize active-duty soldiers who have learned how to fly helicopters, including sophomores at the military academy.”

“Please attach an escort unit as well. I don’t know what’s going to happen on the republic’s side.”

Even if they are now allies, they were engaged in local warfare of life until recently.

Especially because of me, I couldn’t help but hate the helicopter.

The officer nodded.

“Of course. We will deploy transport helicopters carrying special forces and paratroopers, and, if necessary, sortie fighters that are currently in the demonstration stage.”

“Oh. Are the fighter pilots back?”

“Yes.”

The officer smiled confidently.

It seems that our Air Force pilots have returned from flight training in Canael.

In fact, Korea, which had dozens of pilots, including Jung-ryeongsa, who originally drove a biplane, is expected to have the strongest air force in the Irish continent.

Strictly speaking, Canael does not belong to Ireland.

With the support of fighters, you can be relieved to some extent.

Unless the Republic is an idiot plundering the allies it has come to help.

If something like that happens, I’ll start with them.

“Erif has his own attack helicopter, so in case of emergency, attack support may be available. Just bring two assistant pilots with you and act accordingly.”

I was tasked with fire support and transport at the same time.

In a sense, it is natural that I have to step forward in order to properly deal with demons.

“But you still don’t know how to deal with demon fighters?”

“The Republic has a lot of anti-aircraft guns. I’ve had a relationship with Canael in the past.”

“I don’t know if that will work… ….”

The power of the demons’ aircraft was considerable just looking at the photos.

It would be very difficult to catch them with anti-aircraft guns.

In the end, I may have to be proactive.

“Then when will the operation be put into operation?”

“We have to leave immediately. There are still final exams left, so we will focus on students who have completed all exams and active-duty military pilots.”

“I can leave right now, but the students are still waiting a little bit. It may require mental preparation.”

“I see.”

The generals who had participated in the past decade nodded their heads heavily.

War is war no matter what weapon you use to participate in the war.

Students need time to clear their minds.

After a week, when full-scale transportation was needed, I decided to put in the prepared friends first, and I decided to leave immediately.

About 20 transport helicopters are mobilized for this war.

Usually 2 pilots per vehicle.

There were fewer than 20 active pilots, so students had to fill the gaps.

No, in this case, is it the other way around?

Because we’re much more veterans.

Atian Civil War.

The curtain of war to show the greatness of the helicopter has risen.
