I Became An Academy Spearman - Chapter 58

I Became An Academy Spearman — Chapter 58. Cadet Han Seong. Excuse me for a moment… (2)

Leonhard Laurent himself would not enter this space until halfway through the novel. It was precisely this space that helped him to face his strongest enemies. Han struggled to contain the knowledge within.

This place was called Carly’s private training camp in the novel.

“Han Seong. Surely you don’t know what’s inside this training camp, right?” Carly asked calmly, almost back to her cheerful self. Han decided to answer awkwardly, as only a new cadet would.

“Yes… There seem to be a lot of interesting things… It’s amazing.” He pretended he didn’t know about the magical engineering items displayed around him. It didn’t make sense for a new cadet to know the items that were in this place.

Carly was the only one who obtained these items with her great performance, and would choose when and to whom she’d reveal these items to. She gestured around her with a broad smile.

“Actually, every single item in this training camp will be amazing to Cadet Han Seong. They are very precious items. There are magical engineering items that are quite prestigious among the instructors… but only those who have demonstrated great performance on the battlefield can apply for them.”

Although Carly bragged a bit, it was adorable given her age. She looked like a happy child showing off her toys. Han could only express his sincere admiration, which wasn’t a lie nor omission of truth.

“Magical engineering items… I can’t believe it! It’s amazing.” But he wasn’t surprised that she had these items.

Discrimination was prevalent at the Academy. And it was one of the key words in the novel, but for an important reason.

It didn’t just apply to the cadets at the Academy.

Instructors were also discriminated against in various ways. Upper class instructors received better treatment, instructors who performed well on the battlefield received more support, but the rest would not receive as much support from the Empire.

Carly’s performance on the battlefield was truly overwhelming, given these gifts she had in her possession. It was not strange that the Academy had supported her with not one, but several expensive magical engineering items.

”Hmm, what would be good for Cadet Han Seong?

Carly looked expectantly at the various items around them, almost thinking aloud. Han was lost in thought.

This is crazy. His emotions were almost boiling over. He had to control his lips to keep a smile from appearing on his face.

He understood immediately how Carly intended to help him.

He knew this place very well, thanks to the novel. It wasn’t just due to Carly being his favorite character. All the important training Leonhard had done was here, including how he became stronger and how he was able to overcome the stronger difficulties down the road.

There was no law that would not allow him to become as strong as Leonhard. Due to the current circumstances, Han no longer believed that his common attribute limited his potential.

“The first time someone uses magical engineering items they need time to adapt. Cadet Han Seong, can you give me a minute?”

“Okay!” His voice trembled a little. His heart was beating faster than when he was under Carly’s spell.

Thump Thump

He really hadn’t expected this opportunity. Which item would she choose for him? The green item that emitted a strange glow, or the strange gray finger-sized gem?

He felt he would have to accept whatever Carly gave him. Anything he received would be too much to just ask for, and he didn’t know how he could do it subtly.

“I like this one.” Carly smiled as if she had finally made up her mind.

Then his gaze fell on the earrings she held in her hands. The beautiful emerald earrings were adorned with a ruby, and he could feel the power radiate from them.

What is its function? He had never seen them before. They weren’t mentioned in the novel. He had really expected a different item, like the strange gray gem.

But she chose a completely different item of magical engineering. Carly approached him with a faint smile, earrings held up as if they were a prized possession.

He smiled back, puzzled, as he stared at her in silence. He waited for her to explain the item she had chosen.

But she came closer than he expected. His body froze.

“Cadet Han Seong. Excuse me for a moment.” Her lovely voice whispered in his ear.

Thump Thump

Han’s heart thumped in a completely different way.
