Incompetent Academy and Failed Heroines

9 – Semester (3)☆

There were only three support students taking basic archery classes. Me, Kite, Feruk Die Frau. We were in white school uniforms, so we were noticed everywhere and could be easily identified. There were no upperclassmen in the same class. Among the other affiliates, there was no sorcery, and the administrative side stood out a little.

“Nice to meet you, kids.”

Legaranda, a professor in charge of the basics of archery. Her body was slender, but her arm muscles were strong, like someone who only handled a bow. Among Reddit, Kertel hyung has a body like that. She is a master stoner, mainly using catapults.

“Are you a support student?”

Pointing in our direction, Feruk Die Frau answered yes instead of me and Kite.

“If you want to learn archery, you have to buy basic equipment at your own expense. Ask your assistant later.”

It seems that he is saying that we should prepare things like pods, wets, wandaes, and chokdori. I didn’t expect it to support even this kind of thing, and it’s right to buy it anyway because it’s personal equipment. I’ll have to listen to it today and decide whether or not to live.

“I heard that the battle class is just given, but the support side is treated like a pig everywhere?”

When her feruk dyfrau complained to her in a way to listen to her, Rega looked at her with her nonchalant gaze. Just like the student council executive did, it was a look that would quietly pass over this rudeness. Soon after, the assistant came up to the station. Just look at it, he’s a senior. Probably in the third year before graduation.

“This is because the cost of combat is included in the tuition, so students from other disciplines should be aware of this.”

─Then, why do you pay twice as much for admission to the alternative application?

I have to ask, it will only make her face blush. If I had to ask a question, I should ask our student council quietly. The professor called the teaching assistant and asked him to bring equipment that could be lent to other students. Nevertheless, bows and thimbles were not enough, so the administrative departments first used them, and then we decided to use them.

“Since it’s the first day, let’s see everyone’s skills, shall we?”

I’m going to check the skills of the cadets with short-range shooting.

According to school rules, Heoden does not receive additional points for attendance. In other words, even if you don’t listen to lectures, as long as you do well on the exam, there’s no problem. This is also the case with the mentor I passed, but I heard that Orgiola gives a separate attitude score. In any case, this is a relatively liberal school style.

“The distance is 28m, and the target size is 40cm in diameter.”

The teaching assistant came out and brought a target and a wooden bow for practice. He was a single wooden bow, as he thought. It’s not a compound bow, so if you’re weak, it’s hard to pull. Can Kite do well?

“This year, no magicians applied.”

“Because if the scarlet type people hear about it, they will only be embarrassed!”

Among those in the blue school uniform, someone shouted. With a booming noise, words of agreement spread like wildfire.

“Sword dancers! Muscle masses that don’t even know what magic is?”

Feruk Dai Frau murmured quietly. From what I’ve heard, it seems that each class has its own nickname. Compared to Jiwon, who is a colorless mongrel, everyone seems to be able to listen and pass it on. In fact, our side is the most terrible.

“Mado are all cowards!”

“That’s right, cowardly bastards who hide behind the infantry and perform magic tricks!!”

No one stopped me, so I just watched quietly. I didn’t have anything to say because I didn’t understand the culture of this academy, and the fact that factions were clearly divided. Secretly, looking at the students in the administrative department, all of them are expressionless. Indeed, are all those who will be in charge of public affairs in the future like that? No matter what you do, it’s not crazy enough to get into the academy.

“If the battle starts first, everyone will die, so go in the order of administration and support.”

Students in black school uniforms stood at the firing squad with awkward postures. Following Rega’s instructions, there are some people who are clumsy when holding a bow. Boos erupted from the battle line. No one pointed out this blatant sabotage. I was puzzled that he didn’t even teach me how to hold a bow, so I just watched.

“Fire ten rounds. 3 Points if you are inside the red circle, 1 point if you miss, 0 points if you miss.”

It’s tough. Shooting all the tropics at once is a daunting task for those learning archery for the first time. Despite the somewhat harsh order, the administrative students obeyed meekly. Fishy, powerless gongs rang out several times.

─That’s a terrible skill.

I barely restrained myself from bursting out laughing. At this distance, if you can’t hit a target that big, your head will be blown off as soon as a mounted soldier comes. Let alone a jockey, he has the ability to match words.

“It’s better than last year. Can I see it as an average of 9 points?”

“Yes, Professor. If you divide it by 11 people, it’s about 8.83, Which is a little less.”

Rega looked at the administrative students and evaluated them carefully.

“Those who can’t hold a bow properly or pull a string are not qualified, so come practice voluntarily. Whether you ask your classmate or watch and learn, you do it yourself. On a topic that can’t do that, it’s a nuisance to listen to lectures from other affiliates. By any chance, those in the combat system who lack this foundation are the target of a group spirit. Be prepared. Now, let’s take a look at the freshmen’s skills. If you do not exceed twice the administrative level, it means that you are inferior to the current second graders.”

─Isn’t it our turn?

“Why the hell do you start fighting!”

That’s when Feruk die Frau arose. Squeaking and squeaky, now the battle-related side expressed blatant dissatisfaction. Lega looked at her with her solemn gaze, then pointed out that her professor would correct her student with her respect.

“You said we were next to administration…… Yo. This?”

“Because the administrative cadets have to organize the equipment and the support cadets have to wear it, it is better to do battle first.”

The teaching assistant explains the reason instead. It seems that it was something that was negotiated between them. Feruk Die Frau sat back. Goong-goong-goong-goong, what do you say, but it’s something I don’t even want to know.

“You should give up now.”

No matter how much I think about it, I don’t have the skills to hit. Kite doesn’t even know what archery is. She regards it as Tu-Ho (投壺). I can’t even guess how much training this requires since I shoot a 2m long bow.

“I have never even touched a bow…… There is. If you’re not good at it, you teach me…… Will you give it to me?”

“Even if I’m embarrassed, I don’t know.”

Fortunately, Pan and Jean, that is to say, the children of the gallery family, do not seem to be listening to this lecture. Unlike us, the battle line has an overwhelmingly low percentage of women. Moreover, the hair is also cut closely, so it is a medium-length hair that almost brushes the shoulders with really long hair. There are also guys who cut all the way like a man. Like now.

“Perfect score. What is your name?”

“This is Chan.”

Clap your hands without anyone telling you. Rega walked through her seat and motioned for him to stop.

“Are you Dick’s brother?”

“Yes, they are cousins.”

It’s strangely shy. Rega patted her on the shoulder with a proud expression. Since she is a child, I thought she was a man, but even though she is a tomboy, she is a woman. She was the youngest daughter of the gallery family.

“Shame on you guys with balls, are you going to let women be number one?”

It was a pleasant enough voice that anyone could understand that it was a joke.

However, no cadet has ever scored a perfect score since. Everyone stays around 25 points. The highest was 26 points. Even compared to a woman named Chan, she makes a terrible sound when she lets go of her string. This is an approximation achieved by luck. That’s it, I can figure it out.

“Support class, are you ready?”

Peruk Dai Frau is out to hurt us. After taking a look at me, it is sarcastic to see where my skills are as good as my teeth. He pretended not to hear. When it comes to archery, honestly, I’m at the level of playing with everyone here.

I was good at long-range shooting and sniping, and now I was in the process of training my bow using a long bow. In fact, he was confident in all shooting except for the knight.

Actually, the lord tried to give me a horse a long time ago, but his father’s strong opposition prevented it, so it was because there was no opportunity to practice. If I continue to live as Reddit, I will be a heavy infantryman with an axe.

“Demana, is it true that you kick like this?”

A kite carrying a bow like a *slingback was a real spectacle. The demonstration dug deep into the sternum, and it looked obscene to anyone. I wonder if he feels something, he is crying when his ears turn red.

“You can take it and go out.”

“Isn’t it?”

It would be nice if I gave up, but I keep being stubborn. When I urged him to stop again in a quiet voice, I let go of my habit. He even took off the bone marrow and made a fuss, so I told him to stop because I wouldn’t nag him.

“Do you want to kick me out?”

“Because I’m sure you will suffer. Take care now.”

I don’t know either.

“Peruk Dai Frau.”

“Yes, can I shoot now?”

“Okay, let’s see where you learned it right.”

Rega makes a sound of air escaping, and she steps away from the station. Then her blonde punk looked around, pointed to a cadet named Chan, and called out, “You.” Her audience was agitated.

“I pluck them.”

─Crazy b*tch, bluffing!

A noise started to rise. As someone booed, Feruk Die Frau immediately shot an arrow at the target. I didn’t even look properly, but it’s a hit. Suddenly, there is silence, and when the sound becomes loud again, I shoot again. It misses a bit, but is over the red circle. Even I am surprised, with my mouth wide open.

“You incompetent bastards, you have to boo again. So i can shoot arrows is not it?”

─It shoots so well that it’s ridiculous.

There is absolutely nothing to criticize about his posture and the strength to pull the string. This is the form that most closely corresponds to the term Jeongsa (正射). Insert neatly in a straight line. When everyone was silent, he fired eight shots in succession with efficient body movements that could be called mechanical. The last leg took off strangely. The teaching assistant ran to check and shouted.

“Fivefold!”

At last, the sound of breathing came from the battle line. Someone cheered, then I was relieved that it was so. Soon, they enjoy each other while singing a song that does not know whether it is a military song or a school song. Fake Die Frau’s facial expression remains the same throughout. An unpleasant look that seems to look down on someone, and thus makes you feel a sense of silent contempt.

“Assholes.”

I went down after saying that. Rega is expressionless, and Chan is never a good expression. Neither do I. The last shot was deliberately overweight. I know it when I see it. The fact that there are many people who have not noticed this means that Heoden’s level is not that high.

“Battle, isn’t everyone okay?”

Coming back to us, she smirked. I wanted to ask. Where the hell did she learn such jurisprudence? Unlike me, it shoots so neatly that I was really curious. A very unlucky blonde bullsh*t, but his skills are real. Probably, his skills are much better than Chan who got a perfect score.

—Crazy b*tch, that wasn’t very pretentious.
