I Became An Academy Spearman — Chapter 52. Why Does She Speak With Such Charm? (2)
“No, I didn’t have any commitments,” Han replied cautiously.
“Really? Then everything is okay.” Carly replied with a faint smile. He couldn’t help but stare at her intently.
He stared at her flame-red hair, her profiled nose, her big eyes… She didn’t look so scary when he looked at her this closely.
She is quite a beautiful woman. He even noticed he was now feeling positive feelings towards her.
Maybe it was because of the casual way she treated him.

He soon turned his gaze to other cadets as he walked.
Cadets from classes C1 – C2 came out of their classrooms.
Some of them stopped when they saw them. They looked surprised.
The cadets lowered their heads as they walked past Carly to greet her.
She calmly accepted their greetings.
“It’s okay. You don’t need to bow so deeply.” When Han heard these words, he became aware of reality again.
She seemed more normal to him now, even considering her status. He still couldn’t believe he was walking so close to Carly. And it didn’t seem real that she had even invited him to lunch.
I would never have imagined it. Carly was a very important person at the Great Royal Academy. She was such a popular character that many wondered why she wasn’t the heroine.
She valued hard work, she was a high achiever and she looked good.
In fact one of her favorite characters was….
“Han Seong?” Suddenly she called out to him.
“…Yes, instructor?” he responded, maintaining his calm appearance.
“Does it make you uncomfortable to be with me?”
“No. That’s impossible.”
“Then why are you so quiet? From my perspective Cadet Han Seong doesn’t seem to have such an introverted personality.” She said as she turned her gaze toward him with a playful smile.
Instantly his heartbeat quickened.
The Carly he had seen in the novel was the same here… She wanted to converse with him. She was also expressing her interest in him.
Ha quickly shook his head. “During the lesson it seemed to me that instructor Carly had a bit of a serious personality, so I thought you wouldn’t like me talking too much.” Carly laughed for a moment as she walked down the stairs.
“That’s because we’re in a lesson. An instructor has to be respected by her cadets, right? The cadet named Gerard tried to put me on the ropes from the very first lesson. I don’t impose anything on the cadets, but they have to behave properly in the classroom. I’m not so strict outside the classroom… although I may look like that kind of woman to Cadet Han Seong because you were present at the lesson.” She looked at him strangely as she said the last words. His body stiffened as he walked down the stairs next to her.
Why does she speak with such charm? He was not used to this. His heart thrilled with every affectionate word.
This situation was way more unexpected than he was accepted into the Academy. His confusion was mixed with joy.

His heart would not steady as he walked beside her. Later, as they left the training facility, he saw the sophisticated lunch room in the distance.
Suddenly, Carly shook her head softly.
“Han Seong. We’re not going in there.” And then she pointed in another direction.
A building where only instructors could enter. They went in and made straight to the instructors’ private lunch room.
Carly led him in through the main doors. He was in awe as he followed her in, dimly aware of the whispers that started up.
“… Who is that guy?”
“I think he’s a Class C cadet by his uniform.”
Special treatment. Anyone could tell that Carly was giving him special treatment because he could get into the instructor-only lunch room.
“The quality of the food is different from the cadet mess.”
“Thank you.”
“You don’t have to thank me. I asked you to eat with me, so this is the least I can do.” Carly responded naturally.
As he entered the instructors’ lunchroom, a word of admiration escaped him. “…Wow.”
A lavish medieval buffet-style lunch room that he had only seen in the movies. His mouth watered just looking at it.
Yesterday, something simple was eaten in the cadet lunchroom to save money. But here was a variety of meals that were on another level.
Really… I’m glad I fought.
It was a great opportunity for him. It would bring him a lot of luck.
“Hmph… Are you that surprised?” His heart pounded harder when Carly asked, turning her head back towards him with a teasing pout on her face. It made her look even more adorable.
He was going to have lunch with one of the most beautiful women instructors here. More so, how could he not be thrilled when his favorite character was alive in front of him?
