The Second Salvation Myth of a Retired Returning Hero

20. Warrior

“…okay.”

Doyoon admired the enemy inwardly. Even though he was a sinner, it was a job without blood or tears.

Even the dean admired Doyoon’s attitude, not being surprised at all.

“Aren’t you going to ask me for details? Why didn’t you attach your arm?”

“There must have been a reason for that.”

The dean grinned. The more you look at this cadet, the more genuine it becomes.

smart.

“Come on in.”

The door opened, and the secretary put tea and refreshments on the table.

Doyoon looked at the table setting. Although the quantity was not large, it was a refreshing snack that looked luxurious. The subtle scent of the tea was also quite nice.

Although the intention was revealed in the excessive kindness, it was a welcome thing for Do-yoon, who enjoys gourmet food anyway.

The dean offered tea to Doyoon, and both of them touched the cup.

Horok.

The dean saw Doyoon drinking tea and his eyes lit up.

Just now, Doyoon sipped a very small amount of tea and spread it on her tongue and gums without passing it down her throat. It was one of the ways to savor the aroma when the tea was at its hottest.

Unbeknownst to the dean, this was Enoch’s habit when he took his first bite of tea.

“You seem to have a deep knowledge of tea.”

“Sometimes I enjoy it.”

Doyoon said calmly and put down the teacup. Tea leaves that exist only in this world, not on Earth. It was a nice, pleasant scent.

The dean could hardly fathom the cadet in front of him.

‘The eyes I saw at the tournament. Obviously, he refrained from killing for necessity.’

It was not driven by emotions and driven by murderous urges. It was cold eyes that were completely in control of their emotions, thinking only of necessity.

It wasn’t even that he hesitated to kill. By calculating the surrounding situation, the method of murder was excluded.

All the instructors who have been watching Doyoon said this in unison.

‘I don’t know what kind of life I’ve been living in my hometown.’

great skill. clever strategy. cruel hand. Besides, now, even the culture that comes out naturally.

As one instructor put it, a noble family who survived the struggle for succession in the Moorim dimension was like a young boy. The dean also agreed with that.

‘Although he seems to be closer to a man of longevity than a young master.’

What kind of life can a person like that be perfected by spending a life in a peaceful dimension called Earth?

Horok.

The two quietly sipped their tea.

“…Thorn’s work I did a little bit.”

“okay.”

“The trial proceeded with the splicing of the severed arm postponed. A judgment was made as quickly as possible, and he was expelled from the cradle. Being disqualified as a cadet, the obligation to provide protection and treatment in the cradle is also removed. He was sent out into society with his arm cut off.”

“okay.”

“…”

Doyoon sipped the tea. The dean continued to look him in the eye, then opened his mouth.

“…Let’s get to the point.”

“Yes.”

“First of all… I’m sorry. I couldn’t properly protect Cadet Han Do-yoon in the cradle.”

Doyoon sipped the tea again. It was a gesture as if to continue talking.

“The person who caught the boss monster was Cadet Han Do-yoon, right?”

“Yes.”

Also.

“Everyone at Cradle knows that. Of course, it was reported to each guild.”

“There must have been external pressure.”

“That’s right.”

Doyoon nodded. Having been hit by all sorts of politics, he is able to read the current trends.

I had enough eyes.

“The external pressure has been there before. But now that the specific person has been revealed, I can’t stand it.”

“okay.”

“After a while… high-ranking officials from each guild will come out to inspect the cradle. Of course, the inspection is just for a just cause, to see cadet Han Do-yoon.”

Apparently, the intention was to spit on the boss monster killer, Do-yoon.

The dean was not at all happy about the current situation, but it was not something he could cover.

‘Because the pressure is starting to come from the royal family and the World Tree Guild…’

The guild master of the World Tree was not the kind of person who would resort to cheating like this, no matter how big the profit was at stake. In this case, it is probably the work of the vice guild leader who considers the guild as polarity.

The vice guild leader of the World Tree is not a bad person either. She was also an upright apostle who thought of the cause of unity. There is simply a divergence of interest here.

The dean knew this too, but it still tasted bitter.

“I’m sorry. It failed to fulfill its cradle duty of protecting the cadets.”

“no. I’m fine, don’t worry. It’s also because I made a fuss at the competition.”

“…Thank you so much for saying that.”

Do-yoon did not take this badly. Just as they searched for Do-yoon, Do-yoon should also use it as an opportunity to explore them.

When there is no strength, you have to jump on the bandwagon and take advantage. That’s how the weak survive. It was time for Doyun to entrust himself to Shiryu.

Rather, you should know how to take advantage of this opportunity.

“Dean. I don’t know what to say, but may I ask you a favor?”

“Well? Oh… Cadet Doyoon Han also knew how to do a favor. of course. Please tell me as much as you like.”

The dean was rather happy with Doyoon’s request. It was a situation where he apologized because he was sorry right away, so it was more convenient for him to be here.

“Um… Among the guilds that come during the inspection you mentioned, could you please look into the guild where Enoch Roosevolnik’s colleague was located 100 years ago?”

“Well?”

The dean tilted his head. It was a completely unexpected and unfamiliar request.

“Um… nothing more to look into. There is a guild that immediately comes to mind. It is also a very famous guild.”

At those words, Doyoon internally created a color.

“Where is it?”

“The most likely place to take Cadet Han Do-yoon, and the best guild in the country, ‘World Tree’. It is said that the guild master there was a renowned swordsman in Enoch’s guild.”

“Do you know his name?”

Do-yoon was quite reminded and asked.

You will know. I don’t know the name of the 1st place guild master.

Obviously, he said he was a high-ranking prosecutor. Only those who passed through my head immediately passed five fingers. Enoch’s companions were famous for being brave and strong.

Do-yoon waited impatiently for the dean’s mouth to open. This short moment felt exceptionally long.

‘Who is it?’

Finally, his mouth opens.

The name I was waiting for was called.

“This is Eloa Atwood.”

Eloah. Eloa Atwood.

“…Yes?”

Eloah?

The Eloah I know?

“…Are you, by any chance, a female elf?”

“Yes. You knew. It looks like you studied hard.”

The dean smiled. However, Do-yoon had to hide her absurd thoughts.

Eloah? Is it really the Eloah I remember?

‘…A reputed swordsman? who?’

The Eloa that Doyoon remembers lived close to the guild.

Warrior! Warrior! and chirped, following Enoch around.

‘That chick… is the master of the best guild in the country?’

An 11-year-old kid who wanted to be a prosecutor.

+++

To organize his thoughts, Doyoon walked along the dirt trail. There is still plenty of time until the next class.

‘Really… I feel innumerable.’

After hearing the dean’s words, Doyoon realized that 100 years had really passed.

Eloah Atwood is the daughter of the chief of the elven tribe who had a close relationship with Enoch. When Guardian Captain Atwood prepared for the war with the Demon King, he entrusted his daughter to Enoch, a warrior and close friend.

A cute girl from the elves, considered a symbol of beauty, Eloa. She lived in the guild house and used to heal the hearts of the guild members as a guild mascot.

Everyone in the guild treated Eloah like a daughter or sister. Even for Eloa, who had been separated from the tribe since childhood, the guild was a family.

And he was the one Eloah adored more than anyone else. A symbol of courage and justice, respected by all.

It was the warrior, Enoch Roosevolnik.

‘That chick-like guy… is the master of the best guild in the country? really?’

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t believe it. And, the more I thought about it, the more I laughed.

The Elven Guardian Captain is a hereditary job. That family had especially yellow hair, even among elves. It was blonde, but even for a blonde, it was particularly yellow.

Because of that characteristic, Elroa’s nickname in the guild was Chick.

Doyoon was still chirping, ‘I’m going to become stronger and become a member of the guild!’ and Eloah wielding a wooden sword in the front yard of the guild was clear.

‘I want to meet you.’

Now, 100 years later, how big was he?

Do-yoon fell into a flashback while drawing the image of the chick he would soon meet. Just in time, the rain had just stopped, and the fragrant smell of water dust added to the atmosphere.

Chabak, Chabak. The sound of footsteps on the floor resounded regularly.

To Doyoon, who was immersed in pleasant nostalgia, this also came as a piece of music.

Chabak, Chabak.

Until the next class, Doyoon walked the promenade, thinking of an old relationship she would meet soon.
