I Became an Academy Attack Helicopter

104 – Chapter 35. Civil War – 1

– 105 –

“I have not forgotten. You made this sergeant destroy our chariot.”

“That was a bandit.”

“Oh, yes. Anyway. Killing our people. Your country repents.”

“Your people? Being a bandit.”

“… ….”

The Estial Republic officer kept his mouth shut.

I think you’re more stupid than Claring.

The interpretation bracelet I took out after a long time managed to translate even the republic dialect, which was difficult to understand.

Considering the bracelet’s performance, my tone of voice also returned to the conversations focused on short words in the early years of last year, but I felt younger again after a long time.

Is this youth? ….

I was flying a helicopter while enjoying my youth, and suddenly an officer came up to me.

So I just went back and grumbled because I just rebutted it head-on.

What are you here for, that guy?

But thanks to you, I got a rough idea of what the atmosphere is like here.

Even if the feud between countries disappeared, personal resentment did not go away.

Even now, the soldiers were watching from behind.

Of course, whether or not I should attack was not very pleasant.

“Oh, Miss Erif. It’s okay, right?”

Perhaps he sensed the bloody atmosphere, the soldier sitting next to him was sweating in a cold sweat.

The number of people who have learned how to fly a helicopter is not that many, and they have less proficiency than the military academy students, so in this war, they will only serve as auxiliary pilots.

However, if you have the status of a soldier as it is, it becomes an international problem, so it is now called a civilian status.

It’s blindfolded.

“Of course. It was just a light joke.”

“I’m glad.”

Sometimes it’s helpful to hide the truth.

Heaving a sigh of relief, the soldier read the map and gave directions.

The one we are currently riding is a ‘principal type’, called the king of transport helicopters, and has an unusual shape with two large main rotors at the front and back.

The size is so great that it can transport dozens of people and even tanks at a time.

I crossed another ridge, paying attention to the Arachne hanging from the bottom of the aircraft.

“It is a border in a little while.”

“Rager. Where are the other helicopter units?”

“Wait a minute. Oh This is Angel 1. I want to see the positions of the other ‘angels’.”

Communicator, which has been improved over and over to enable communication over great distances between the same units, was a necessity for our helicopter unit.

It is not easy to work in another country according to the instructions of another country.

For once, I was serving as the commander of a helicopter unit, who could interpret the Empire or Republic language.

“This is Angel 2. Currently moving within the Empire.”

“Our Angel 3 is loading troops from the Republic.”

“Erif. I’m bored because I keep carrying only supplies.”

“If you translate those words and listen to them, I think people here will really like them.”

“Hey, look at that.”

The mental state of the children was better than expected.

I haven’t had a chance to fly directly over the battlefield yet.

When that happens, I will have to intervene so that I can work far away from the battlefield.

Because the safety of our friends is our top priority.

I don’t know what the Crown Prince or the Republican side, who is urgently in a war right now, will say, I’ll have to reduce my dissatisfaction even if I directly attack.

If demons appear anyway, I will have no choice but to step forward.

“You can see the destination slowly.”

As the assistant pilot said, I could see the beginning of the mountain over the ridge.

A big city nestled there.

It was a stronghold for the prince and a place that bordered the republic to the southwest of the empire.

Due to trade and nearby magic stone mines, it boasted a considerable scale despite being a production area.

“There it is.”

The field headquarters on the outskirts of the city was packed with sergeants and troops.

As I approached the heliport on one side, the soldiers there sent a hand signal.

The levers and pedals were carefully steered according to the instructions of the assistant pilot.

As we descended slowly, the soldiers on the ground changed their hand signals and immediately stopped.

The tank hit the ground.

After a while, after checking that Arachne was walking under my feet, I followed the hand signal and landed slowly.

“Thank you. Please don’t make this happen.”

“Come. No, I understand.”

The expression of the Republican soldier’s expression became strange as to how the interpretation went.

After unloading all the soldiers and supplies, this time he took the refugees of the Empire and launched a helicopter.

The expression of the people of the Empire was not good.

Because of the civil war, you have to leave your hometown for a while.

If you tell me to come and leave the military academy and Selmeier now, I wouldn’t be happy, let alone ordinary people.

Whether young or middle-aged people were conscripted or left in the city, most of the passengers were elderly or young children.

Children on helicopters holding grandpa and grandma’s hands were looking around with curious eyes.

The faces of the elderly who were depressed by the actions of their grandchildren were relieved for a moment.

I put my hand on the lever while watching the scene.

After a while, the helicopter roared and started flying towards the Republic.

“Huh.”

After a light sigh, I checked my clothes.

A gray pilot suit without any marks or patterns.

Is it the third day?

On the battlefield, even laundry is a luxury.

Our troops are virtually like foreign mercenaries, so we don’t receive any personal supplies except for Mana Stones.

So I used the items that were sent regularly from my home country, but I have to apply for clothes separately when I need them.

Clothes are collected and washed at once, but our barracks at the field post were full of stripped suits.

I and my friends do laundry every now and then, but it’s most comfortable to just wear the same clothes for a few days.

Already these days, the battlefield has become so wide that I hardly have time to change clothes.

But I’m glad that I hardly ever smell it.

After making sure that there was no particular smell, I brushed off the dust and entered the large barracks.

There were familiar faces in the barracks.

The commander-in-chief of the Republic, the field commanders of the Imperial ‘regular army’, and the staff of the Imperial-Republic Combined Forces.

They talked in a low voice and greeted me with their eyes.

I bowed slightly to say hello to them and tried to find a seat.

“No, who is this?”

Oh, damn it.

I didn’t think I’d be noticed, but I didn’t expect to be talking to you right away.

“Aren’t you the captain of the angel unit who came down to help us?”

At times like this, I resented the bracelet that fluently translates the imperial language.

If it’s a word that’s hard to understand, I’ll just laugh it off, but my eyebrows frown.

Forcibly pressed down a sigh that was about to come out on its own at the embarrassing name, and corrected her posture.

I don’t know much about the imperial etiquette, so I just added a military-style salute.

“Meet the Crown Prince.”

The Crown Prince greeted with a friendly smile and raised his hand.

“Even so, we were talking about the activities of the lord’s unit. Come on, sit here.”

I glanced at the Crown Prince who pointed to the seat next to him among the many empty seats, and then strode over to sit there.

Participated in the meeting, ignoring the meaningful gaze of the Crown Prince.

“Dissemination is not a problem. Helicopters move so quickly…….”

I bowed my head slightly towards the faces facing me.

The high-ranking people of the Empire and the Republic looked satisfied.

“As the battlefield expands, it is said that the enemy’s main force is gradually emerging.”

“How about those new weapons?”

In response to the prince’s question, the operations officer placed red horses on a large map on the table.

“There were a lot of tanks that were more powerful than the Gorgons, so I immediately retreated. Fighters also appeared at this point.”

Looking at the map, the place where the tanks presumed to be demons appeared was deep inside the empire.

Looking at the push to that point in a month, without the intervention of the demons, it might have ended in a refreshing victory for the Crown Prince.

The troops under the prince gathered near the Republic in advance to preserve their power safely, and this power of the elite central army was prevailed.

In addition, the transportation capacity of our helicopter unit, the political checks of the Holy Kingdom, and above all, the direct participation of the Republic in the war has resulted in a smooth victory so far.

In human-to-human warfare.

Since the situation in which the demons directly intervened was caught, it was difficult to know the future direction.

The number is superior to this one, but the difference in performance is quite large.

Besides, thinking about the asymmetric forces gives me a headache.

As he was looking down at the map with a serious face, the Crown Prince made a laugh.

“What do you think about Kyungsoo?”

What is the purpose of asking this to me as an outsider?

One thing is for sure, the Crown Prince is very kind to us.

I don’t think you’re asking for a face wash.

“New weapons do not seem to be taken lightly. In particular, preparations for fighters should be thoroughly prepared.”

Helicopters are vulnerable to fighters.

I have a very strong body and I can shoot down fighters through unification, but it will be difficult to survive if other helicopters become targets of fighters.

“The moment the air supremacy is seized, it becomes difficult for the helicopter unit to actively move forward. Then it will be more difficult to transport materials than it is now, and we will have no choice but to cut the wires or focus on one side.”

Everyone nodded heavily at my words.

In a mountainous republic, it may take several days to provide supplies or troops without helicopters.

The Crown Prince also nodded in agreement with my words.

“As everyone has heard, you can’t give up the offer. The actual deployment of the fighters purchased from the Holy Kingdom has been completed. The preparation of our garrison seems to be sufficient, so please strengthen the air defense in the recovery area and pay attention to aerial reconnaissance.”

“Okay, my lord.”

After that, there was talk about the war situation.

I could hear some stories about demons that I should be careful about.

“I see.”

When the meeting was over, the Crown Prince opened his mouth.

Everyone turned to look at him.

The prince looked at me openly and picked up the red horse on the map.

“Ace of the fighter unit over there. They said he had white hair like a lord.”

“I am not gray.”

“Yes. Your hair is silver like the beautiful moonlight.”

“… ….”

In an instant, an awful silence fell in the barracks.

I couldn’t say anything because it was so ridiculous that I was staring straight at the Crown Prince, and the oldest general coughed in vain.

“I think it would be enough if Abu did that to Miss Erif. Helicopters will not be easily removed from Selmeyer.”

Contrary to the intention of the high-ranking people to evoke the atmosphere with a forced smile, the Crown Prince was still looking at me with a burdensome look.

“I, our military have high expectations of you.”

“It’s embarrassing.”

In many ways.

Even though it is a safe command in the rear, I would like you to refrain from flirting on the battlefield.

I’m not saying to do it somewhere else.

I must have highly appreciated my abilities, but officially, it looks like I’m working on a girl who is more than ten years older than me, so please just shut up.

The prince declared the end of the meeting with a nonchalant expression.

The high-ranking people looked at me once with a meaningful expression and then left the barracks.

I was about to follow them quickly, but the Crown Prince caught me.

“Erif. Please give me some time.”

I swallowed the curse that almost came out of my mouth and turned back.

Fortunately, he was not alone, and we had a brief conversation with him as he toured the premises.

Speaking moderately of a story that has no interest in succession to the throne, he brought up the main point.

“I have met Arumanan before.”

“Is that so?”

Aruma Nan is famous, but it is difficult for foreigners to meet her directly.

It must be because the guardian deity of Canael encounters a foreigner and is in trouble if an accident occurs.

“When I was young, I admired him. Beautiful looks, but above all, here.”

The Crown Prince raised his finger and pointed to his chest.

Are you talking about your heart?

I don’t think Arumanan is as good-natured as he is.

But the prince uttered an unexpected word.

“The strong and pure elemental power unique to humanoid spirits. I was fascinated by its power.”

I hope.

Is the Crown Prince the kind of person he can “Feel”?

He glanced back at me.

“It’s hard to say that it’s a coincidence that you feel that power too.”

This guy.

Did you see my true identity?

“Please look forward to your success in this war.”

The Crown Prince held out his hand with a smile.

“Oh, of course, saying that you are beautiful is not a word of mouth.”

The belated comments made me rather angry.

“You have no conscience, are you? What is the age difference on the outside?”

The prince let out a short laugh and then shrugged his shoulders.

“Beautiful is beautiful. Whether it’s a little girl or a big guy, I don’t spare my praise for beautiful people. Besides, you’re small, but you look almost like an adult, so that’s no problem.”

“There is no point in praising me like that.”

In the end, I did not hold the hand the Crown Prince held out.

With his hand, he didn’t show much disappointment.

It’s weak.

“You’re going to fight anyway.”

The prince took out his red horse from his pocket.

“The white-haired fighter ace of the enemy army. They say they are desperately looking for a silver-haired helicopter pilot.”

When the Crown Prince snapped his finger, a red horse flew and caught it reflexively.

The Crown Prince turned around as if he had no regrets.

“… ….”

When he gave strength to his hand, the red horse made of crude wood shattered.

I may soon be reunited with an unfinished affair.
