I Became An Academy Spearman — Chapter 88. The Rumor Spread So Fast (2)

If Dave believed the rumor, surely others believed it as well.

“…I really seem to like Luna?”

“I’m not completely convinced. But it wouldn’t be weird if you were in love with her because she’s quite pretty. Everyone looks at Luna, even if they pretend otherwise. It’s natural for you to be interested in her because you’re a man.”

Dave showed him another perspective. Dave said it was natural that he could like her because she was a pretty woman. Strangely, he felt some empathy with those words.

He looked forward from his seat.

The problem was that she had a tsundere personality.

That’s adorable.

His resentment towards her had disappeared because she had acted like a child yesterday. Although her confession surprised him, he still planned to approach her.

The Battle Healing attribute Luna possessed was very important.

She could literally save his life.

“…Hey. You say you don’t like Luna, but you’re staring at her.”

He shook his head immediately.

“I really don’t like Luna. And I don’t even know why she thinks that… my ideal woman is completely different.”

“Someone completely different? Are there any similar women in the classroom?”

“Yes. Right now she’s next to Luna.”

He said it quietly because he was talking to Dave.

Millia Evelon had a kind personality, and he found her face charming.

He couldn’t get close to her because of Luna.

“Millia?”

“Yes.”

“…Hmm, I think Luna is more beautiful.”

“Tastes are subjective. Even if Luna is prettier, I may prefer another woman.”

Small talk.

“Commoners talk about stupid matters…”

Suddenly, an extremely cold voice was heard.

He turned his gaze towards the voice. Gerard was there.

Commoners? He wondered how he dared say that at the Academy.

“Gerard. You should ignore their actions.”

A cadet who was with Gerard dissuaded him. They went to their seats.

Yesterday he looked at him in a hostile manner for no apparent reason.

Han Seong did not intend to hold back because he was so brazen.

Dave caught him by the arm when he tried to stand up.

“Don’t do anything right now.”

“…Dave.”

“Next week there will be fighting classes. That’s when we’ll retaliate. No need to make a fuss now.”

Seriousness replaced Dave’s mischievous attitude. Han Seong nodded.

Next week’s classes will focus mainly on practice.

Cadets would definitely have to fight.

He calmed his burning heart.

Suddenly, the classroom door opened.

He forgot all about it when Carly walked in.

It wasn’t worth thinking about trash like Gerard.

And today was an important day.

He had to get close to Carly in order to use his private training camp.

“……”

“…Did you do something bad to the instructor yesterday?”

Dave whispered. Han Seong didn’t know why.

“……”

Carly had a cold look on her face. She didn’t look at him like that when he handed her the exam yesterday.

Why?

…
…

The classroom became silent as soon as Carly entered.

Carly, who had looked at the cadets, placed the instructional material she had brought with her on the desk. She was no longer looking at him, but he could still feel a strange shiver. He even felt uncomfortable.

There was something wrong.

He wanted to talk to her today, but she looked like she was in a bad mood.

“Cadet Han Seong?”

He swallowed saliva.

“…Yes. Instructor Carly.”
