I Became an Academy Baldo User

don’t give up

“So that’s why you took the exam?”

During the two-day journey to the academy together, we talked a lot.

It was a story about hometown, a motive for applying to the academy, and trivial chatter, but it was enough to satisfy the boredom along the way.

“Yeah, good grades at the academy will get you backers.”

The fastest way for commoners to succeed in this world is to become a special student and enter the academy and get excellent grades.

The students who entered the academy, with the exception of a few commoners, are all nobles and can be said to be the next rulers of this world.

Such people build friendships from the time they were successors, prove their abilities, and receive support.

That was the reason Hori entered the academy.

‘I’ve known him since he said he was admitted to the academy, but Hori seems to be an excellent alchemist.’

Although I have no intention of relying on drugs, there will be nothing wrong with being friends with Hori.

Thinking I was lucky this time, I spurred Silence further.

“I see it slowly.”

In the distance, at the edge of the horizon, a huge fortress wall incomparable to the one I had seen two days ago was seen.

Two days ago, if the walls of the Academy were faithful to their functions while excluding unnecessary things as much as possible, the walls of the Academy were splendid and magnificent as if trying to show the dignity of the royal family.

A flag with the royal seal was fluttering over the white wall that even gave people a reverent heart, and below the flag, elite soldiers were guarding the wall armed with the latest magic weapons.

In this world, except for the walls of the islands and the royal capital, it was the strongest wall, but frankly, it wasn’t strong at all.

‘In the original, there are always holes… .’

From assassins to demon worshipers to witches and demons, the wall, which was looser than the hole of a prostitute, could not stop anyone from breaking in.

Those who can penetrate the castle wall from the front come in, and those who cannot penetrate the wall come in proudly from the front, hiding their power and disguised as a merchant.

It was not unreasonable to wonder if there was any real meaning to the existence of that wall.

After a while, when I got to the immediate vicinity of that wall, I said to Hori, who was riding behind me.

“It will arrive soon.”

“is that so? Baron Jun, thank you in many ways over the two days.”

“You still use respect. You can just talk nonsense.”

“… Since I am a commoner, I can’t do that.”

“Are you doing this because of your title? I’m just going to talk nonsense to the prince.”

Hori heard that and stuttered as if she had heard something wrong.

“Yes, yes? I really do?”

“What can’t be done? I’m going to tell my dad that I was half-talking. What?”

In fact, if you look at the prince’s personality, he was not the kind of person who remembered that I used a bit of a slander and was stubbornly bitten.

In the first place, I plan to defeat the prince and the escort knights, as well as the sword castle.

When I arrived, there was no such thing as half-talk.

“Huh… Baron Jun is a really weird guy.”

“Wonderful… . What if I’m just an alchemist who beats a robber with a head stone?”

“That thing… Forget it now… .”

“Then instead, forget that you too are me, a baron. I am not the only semi-baron in the world.”

“… yes.”

When we got to the immediate vicinity of the wall, we saw a procession of wagons and crowds entering the gate, so we went to the very end and entered the procession.

After waiting for a while, it was our turn and we showed our certificate to the defenders of the wall.

After that, after a brief question at the checkpoint, we finally entered the academy site.

‘That’s great.’

I had seen it several times in the description of the novel, but when I saw it with my own eyes, it was truly amazing.

It’s a bit lacking compared to the modern ones I used to live in, but the sights of large buildings stretching out in the forest.

There is a saying in the novel that the academy doesn’t have anything, but as the saying goes, the academy didn’t have anything.

From general stores that handle miscellaneous daily necessities, to ingredients for alchemy that require specialized knowledge.

Other than that, although it was not directly described in the novel, there was nothing lacking in the creation of a storehouse, a tavern, and even a bakery where first-class artisans worked.

Me and Hori glanced at the building and headed to the academy to get a dormitory to unpack first.

We went into the main building and wandered for a while, but after a while we arrived at the reception desk without any problems.

After showing the admission certificate at the reception desk, I was assigned to the Knights Department and the Hori Alchemy Department.

“Junnam… No, Mr. Ian is from the Knights Department.”

“Yeah, right… .”

Hearing the word chivalry came out of Hori’s mouth, I once again remembered the purpose of my coming here.

The purpose of my admission to the academy is none other than to defeat the strong men of the future who attend here and prove that I am the strongest in foot swordsmanship!

For that, I had to think about how to minimize the damage to the family and whether the royal family or the duke would wage a fight on their children.

“Then Hori… I’ll just go See you later at the entrance ceremony.”

“yes. Then I too… .”

To calmly think about it, I first broke up with Hori and headed to the dormitory I was assigned to.

Naturally, there were men and women, as well as nobles and commoners, so the dormitory we were assigned to was the opposite.

As I entered the dormitory, I was surprised to find that it was better than my home room, and I unpacked my things slowly.

That’s when I was about to unpack all my stuff and sit down at my desk to think.

-smart

Without even understanding the atmosphere, someone knocked on the door, so I got up again.

“Who is it?”

When I got out the door, standing there was a blonde man in a neat uniform, even though he hadn’t even had the entrance ceremony yet.

“Are you Baron Ian Ba Tow?”

“But you?”

“First time meeting you. I’m Victor de Bau, and I’m here at a request from your mother.”

“Victor?”

When I heard the name, I immediately remembered what my mother had said before leaving.

Obviously, his mother was with Victor… My… right? I told you to say hello to my young-ae.

“Oh, I heard about your mother. that… Say hello to my young-ae.”

“What are you doing? Are you talking about Jessica Young-ae?”

“Oh, yes. That Jessica. Say hello to Jessica Young-ae.”

But what kind of noble girl’s name is not Eliza, but Jessica to look like nothing.

As he was laughing at the writer’s pathetic naming sense, Victor, who was in front of him, laughed along with him.

“Fufu… ! How did you call the Count Young Ae’s name like that? You will be the only semi-baron like that.”

“Well… Behind the scenes, there are people who call me by a name worse than this.”

There must be at least one person besides me who would like to say hello to Young-ae, who can’t even use her feet.

“Maybe, but you should refrain from saying such things in front of her. It’s something that might have an impact on the family.”

There were no rumors that Jessica had a particularly bad personality, but it wasn’t the other way around, so be careful.

“So what… So, are you here to say hello today?”

“No, I heard the sound of unpacking from the next room, so I went out and looked at the nameplate, and there was your name.”

Victor’s room seems to be the one next to me.

“Well… I’m sorry if it was noisy, but I think my hands got rough because I was a little worried.”

“worry? A present for Miss Jessica?”

“There is also… By the way, where did you buy it?”

“It’s a shop with a patissier she likes. If it’s okay with you, while I’m buying mine, I’ll buy yours too.”

“Then thank you, then here is the money… .”

I pulled out about 30 gold coins from my bag, put them in my pocket, and handed them to Victor.

Viktor looked into the pocket and asked me, startled.

“no! There are too many… !”

“What was your original budget?”

“I was thinking about three gold coins, but… .”

Well… A katana’s worth of dessert was also worthy of being called the Earl’s Young Ae.

“Then, since you’re already living, make it a good thing. Oh, you and I are supposed to live together.”

“Then thank you, but… Are you really okay with that?”

To be honest, I don’t want to look good to her, and I don’t care if I can just do what my mother told me to do.

On the contrary, I feel sorry for Victor for making such an errand.

“It’s really good. Think of it as the price for giving you such an errand.”

“thank you… Then you’ll just get a favor. But what are you thinking about?”

“Oh, you mean that? It’s not a big deal. Do you know how a prince or a duke can fight Confucius so as not to harm his parents?”

“What? What joke?”

“Are you serious?”

Perhaps he thought there was something else in my words, Victor closed his eyes and pondered before opening his mouth.

“I don’t think there is such a way… ”

“Is that so, then… .”

Do you have to bear the damage?

*****

‘… Why the fuck aren’t you?’

Having resolved the dessert to be dedicated to Young-ae, I went out with gold coins with a light heart.

The purpose, of course, is to obtain a new katana for use in the academy.

There is no problem in using it now, but in order to prevent a disaster caused by incorrect power control, I had to obtain a new, safe sword.

‘There may be some prepared by the academy… .’

I wanted to make a dedicated one so that it can be used outside the academy.

It was good to think that way… .

‘I’m sorry, but it seems unreasonable in our shop… .’

‘We’re also looking for other stores… .’

‘How about this store?’

I couldn’t find the katana I wanted, no matter where I went to any weapon shop or any blacksmith.

Why?

Is there even a katana hatred circulating in the academy?

After going through many blacksmiths and weapon shops like a civil servant, the last place I arrived at was a shabby blacksmith.

‘I’m only here now!’

I opened the blacksmith’s door, wishing that the last one would win.
