Noro to a fantasy world;
You endary hero
Or you iant harem
Or instead, you could start a revolution and defeat evil ees
Yeah, no That kind of a thing never actually happens
Understanding the language of the world when you reincarnate?
Don’t h That kind of shi+t’s only for the main character
Ah, it’s not that I couldn’t talk But, do you honestly think that some people in a different dimension would know Korean?
Language ic? Of course it exists But what kind of a crazy idiot would use it on a baby?
In the end, I had to study ue
After that, my social class
Yahoo! I’m a commoner! Of course I wouldn’t be a noble
Then, I can just use e from my other world to… nope
You should knoell, Korea’s education sucks balls There’s no way to use it other than for tutoring
You’re not really sure? Try going to college Everything you learned for the last 12 years of your education is now useless
You can’t even apply what you learned to anything either!
Korean? Nope! English? Nope! Korean History and World History? Nope!
I soenius for enius as long as you can add and subtract
In other words, you can be a genius with your eleenius skills? When selling crops! As expected, reality is bullshi+t
And a while later, my parents passed away The reason? The works of a black wizard, and the oppression from an evil noble!
…Actually, they died after getting involved in a hero’s chase
If I were to explain it clearly, it’s like one of those scenes in an action et into a car chase with the villains
It’s a scene that makes you ball your fists and shout out excitedly Now, try i in real life
It looks good in movies, but it causes all kinds of harm in reality
That “harm” included the death of tens of people and the injury of hundreds
Even though they’re parents froe for my them… nope
It’s not that I don’t want to, but in the chase, there were just soaround everywhere There’s no way to chase after them, and in the first place, I didn’t even kno to continue living
And… So I begin training! Nope
Knight school? I’d rather build an inn with the admission fee
Magic, or su spirits? I said this before, but I’: 0 chance that’s ever going to happen!
Then what do I do?
Crack!
“K, kuuh…”
“Should have handed it over when I told you to”
In a dark alley, a boy with a knife in his hand was threatening a single man
Ah, isn’t this the kind of thing the h when he’s still weak? But the thing is
Crack!
“Ah, fine, I’ll give it to you!”
I’m the one with the knife
I only have one advantage in this world: a free mind
Around here, peasants never really get educated, so they just live their lives like machines, but I’m different! Steal a bit, beat up some people, do whatever you can to live!
What happened toto talk about morals, first talk to the God who sus! Yeah, they have real Gods here!
I just kind of drifted off into this kind of a lifestyle
“…Well, that’s just my life, isn’t it”
No love life! To think that there would be no love, even in a fantasy world!
No, wait, I wasn’t trying to talk about that Right now, I’anization
Mm? What’s a petty official? Hey, don’t underestimate petty officials damn it
This evil organization was for all kinds of people in the back alleys In other words, even petty officials have a pretty high position in the organization! I actually have a higher rank than most people
Of course, in return for risking et to take in quite a bit ofwith dirty stuff like this If your pay is shi+t then what you’re doing is shi+t, no one would ever do these kinds of things, after all
And like that, I lived, working hard as a petty officer and avoiding heroes as much as I could
At some point, I reached my 40s and was promoted from a petty officer to an instructor
H! Nope As I ic or suood with a sword in , I’m pretty much useless
Ah, what’s a life sword, you ask? It’s like a sword aura that you see in novels They call it life sword here, because you put in energy into the sword A sword that has been injected with evil energy through the use of dead people or evil ic would be called death sword You know, these words actually sound like their respective Korean versions, which s a bit easier
But there are some problems that result from that as well Everyone knows a desk is called a desk, yeah? But then in this world, the word for “desk” would be pronounced as “chair” It seeht? It actually drives you crazy
Back to the original topic I’uy who makes talent sprout out of kids!
But because they’re still kids, they can’t use the life sword yet They ht have the talent, but to me, who battled in land, sea, and sky, and even experienced traveling between di!
And the children in this world are all like blank slates! My brainwashi+ng powers are seriously top-class in the organization as well… if God didn’t exist in this world, I probably would’ve ruled this world as a weird leader of a cult After all, I even h the mystical art of the pyramid scheme!
Anyway, I, as the head instructor of the organization, looked at the future members of this place, and spoke coldly
“I am your instructor, Naruan”
Why do I speak coldly? Of course, it’s to intimidate them!
Even talented kids get intimidated if I speak like this
Of course, there are soet intimidated
Let’s see, those kinds of kids would be… number 17, 46… and 102?
These guys are the real gems here!
“From now on, you will coet curious about anything, you may ask your instructor questions But as the answers ood idea to share the information with others“
I speak as if I’, but with this, the instructors can’t say whatever they want! Why? Because I allowed everyone to share information! Why did I allow it? It’s definitely not because the instructors would say all kinds of things about ht and eventually be fired… it’s definitely not that, I swear Hum, hum
After saying a few other things to keepdown
“I’ll take care of nuroup, and bring them to me”
As the head instructor, I usually have to show soanization Fearless kids are usually talented, which s easier
If they aren’t? I’ll have to work my ass off That usually does it But in that case… I’d be the one who has to work…
The three kids were dragged in front of old
They all look quite a a little over ten Since all of theender they are, but they’re sure to grow into beautiful men/women in the future Hmm… even so
Whateither a beautiful man or woman, you ask?
It’s easy to trick people What’s the one thing that matters the most when someone falls in love? The heart? Ha, nice joke It’s the looks Fate? First love? They only exist because of good looks Of course, there are cases where people get in love with ugly, or average looking people But that kind of love is so tiued with bad impressions of the person!
But if that person was pretty? You begin liking him/her immediately
In other words! Villains have to look pretty as well! Ah, that doesn’t h I’ood resume I don’t need to rely on my looks
Well, that’s that Let’s find out their gender first
“…Hirlish”
I never directed the comment to anyone If I just make a comment like this, then…
“Who… are you calling girlish?”
The kids are unafraid, even when I intimidate them with an emotionless face? They aren’t actually unafraid Rather, they’re pretending to be unafraid Why? Acting afraid would hurt their pride And what happens when I poke that pride? Well, the ansould be disciple 102, who is currently glaring at irls? Huh…
It feels like the organization’s taking in a lot of girls because the neord Saint was fe? When I was a newbie, there were only brawny irlfriend No, really …Probably
The fact that I’ cooes to prove that I a the coldness from before, spits out a word
“You”
When I just give a glance, 102 blushes a bit, but stays silent
“I dislike talkativeness Prove that you’re not girlish through results, not words”
Of course, I’d have to be very talkative and huanization, resultstalkative just means there’s more paperwork
But I didn’t know back then Why these kids came here, and what their presence here would eventually cause!
Chapter 1 I didn’t know back then
125 Their Story
[1] 17’s Story
The first daughter of the great Nerumia Family in the Karuan Empire
This is the identity of me, Nerumia El Ria So why am I here?
There is only one reason forthe latter parts of the family’s sword arts as well as the family heirloom
A year back, our fa the latter part of their sword arts stolen, but the bigger proble the heirloom stolen
The Nerumia Family ith the Empire since its birth And the heirloom had been with us for up to 700 years We only found out later that it had been stolen
For up to half a year, we had been using a fake heirloom that had even the imperial palace fooled If it wasn’t for the fact that the heirloom actually had a special spell cast on it, no, if it wasn’t for randfather who came to visit us fro that heirloom up to this point
Our faic than swords, which e had been searching for the thieves slowly and carefully
But this time, the heirloom was stolen The object that represented our family had been stolen Because of this, the entire family had been sent to try to find the heirloom, and this was the same for me
As a child, however, there weren’t uise anization that way
Once I entered, I was taken to train for up to three , but it see how there were quite a lot of kids disqualified
And noe get assigned to different instructors
On the platforan to talk with a cold face
“I am your instructor, Naruan”
He see how there were other instructors behind him, he was probably the head instructor
As expected of awith his cold voice had an effect ofchills run down your spine
Kids around me, and even me, flinched from his voice, but I tried lared at the man Then, at that moment…
‘W, as that?’
At that instant, it ale to notice how I actually glared at him?
The head instructor continued on with his emotionless face
“From now on, you will coet curious about anything, you may ask your instructor questions But as the answers ood idea to share the information with others”
In a place where thereof infor that they have the capability to catch all kinds of spies under any kind of situation, and that our life is in their hands
The instructor’s finished speaking after a short moment, and his last words immediately made me paralyzed
“I’ll take care of nuroup, and bring them to me”
It wasn’t just me, but out of three people, he had picked me
Was this… coincidence? Or did he already realize who i was?
Hundreds of different thoughts floated up my head, but in the end, I was taken up to instructor Naruan by one of the other instructors Instructor Naruan glanced at each of us for a bit, then le comment with his cold voice
“…Hirlish”
I thought that the comment was directed towards me, but it did not take a while to realize that that was a mistake
“Who… are you calling girlish?”
“You”
102 was currently looking at the instructor with gritted teeth He really was pretty enough to be irl But, I feel like I’ve seen him before? Am I just mistaken?
I thought for a ely enough, I couldn’t co
“I dislike talkativeness Prove that you’re not girlish through results, not words”
While I had been thinking, Naruan threw the sentence at me After this, he scanned us once an to do paperwork
“…”
“…”
“…”
All three of us looked at each other with confused faces After a ly tired of the silence in the roolared at the instructor and opened his mouth
“What… are you doing?”
“Work”
The instructor said this in thethe theto do in the world 102 was rendered speechless for a second because of this, but he soon shouted out soritted teeth
“T, then, what are we supposed to do?!”
“Your rooms can be found when you open the door that’s next to you Most of your essential tools should be located there, and if you need anything else, come to me”
The instructor said this as he pointed to a door in the side Before 102 began to co that , all three of us freeze
“I’ about tha…”
“Training begins 7 o’clock in theYou can do whatever you like during the ti that I alone e I do not care about what you do in here There is no need to hide your secrets about revenge, desires, or stories to everyone in the building other than me”
As expected… he knew? No, then what did his words just now ht
My eyes met with those of the people next tothe same face as me at the time
And… their eyes were both saying this
[You as well?]
And about the tian to crawl up in our hearts, the instructor, who still wasn’t even glancing at us, opened his mouth ords that contained both coldness and a hint of joy
“Training starts tomorrow… rest well”
And, fro that I could never forget, no, soed me completely
Chapter 1 I didn’t know back then
“Phew…”
After confirh
Honestly,But what am I supposed to do? If I don’t do that, I’d be seen as an idiot
A long tio, I acted as a kind instructor, but then the kids saw me as a total idiot They didn’t even listen to me It’s like how you enjoy a kind teacher’s class, but have shi+tty grades in it, and even though you hate a class where a scary teacher waves around his rades there
The bat is not at fault here Humans, who refuse to move unless hit by the bat, are the problem here
Even so, as a person orked as an instructor for a long ti children
Strategy number one!
Act as if you know everything about your students!
Honestly, what kind of an idiot would enter an evil organization? Especially those kids who have talent
The kids beco trained for a few anization, when they could be doing soal with their newfound skills?
Like all other villains, they all have a siht want revenge Or they ht have some other story they can’t talk about
Well, ainst the nobles Soanization, but when you act like you know everything, they just can’t do anything
And whenever I reach a barrier while teaching… hehehe, I can just - skill!
There’s no waythat even older kids can’t take I didn’t type in “reading” and “psychology” in , you know?!
Strategy number two! The room that the kids went into!
That roooing in there?
Well, there are two reasons, with one of theanization has a lot of hate directed at it, and heroes occasionally attack us for no reason at all The room that I made to hide away from those heroes was this, my office
If you look carefully, you’ll find that there are no s in the office Then, there are only two entrances one can enter this rooh First, there’s the et in, and there’s the other door that leads to h the other door, you’ll find the children, but if you go through the main door, you’ll find yourself in company with a bunch of alarms and traps
And as long as I’oing on before anyone else Adding to that, this office has all the tools required for , and it even has several escape tunnels In other words, this place is a steel fortress I can proudly say that this rooanization uses
Because of that, I sleep in ot used to it eventually My life is more important
The other reason why I’ into my room is because it makes it easier for me to administrate the kids, and at the same time, make them like me a little more
What’s so good aboutthem like me, you ask? These kids are like my potential life insurance! If one of them becomes successful, I need to stick by him/her as much as I can, but would I be able to do that if I treat theot out alive
Because of that, I need to become a tsundere instructor who is both kind yet harsh to his students
H It works particularly well around here, especially because no one knows about the concept of tsunderes
The point of this would be to say stuff like [H It’s all for the organization!] and [I’anization!], tothe lines of [Ah, he’s doing it all for us…] I have to be careful, though Ia cold-blooded instructor if I make a mistake
Well, there are many other points other than just that one, but that’s another story for another tiht now, I need to do paperwork
I’ve mentioned before that I had no talent whatsoever, but there is still that one advantage I have against others: The Korean buff!
No one can catch up to my office work speed! I, who has been trained by countless sleepless nights in the office, have no equal, other than perhaps the prime minister of the Empire!
Work ork! Infinite work power!
Find the core statement of a paper, and stamp! I am the man who is faster than no other in paperwork!
After quickly finishi+ng my work like so, I do a quick stretch, then enter the kids’ room with a knock
Knock knock
“I’ in”
And the first thing I see when I get in is… what the?
“What’s going on”
I said this with a lower voice than the one that I normally use
Why? Because it looked like these kids were trying to rank themselves already, haha
17 had a staff in hand, and 46 had a dagger both hands 102, on the other hand, had a longsword, which see for him
The kids all si! The ht that, my villainous senses cried out
-danger!
The moment I stepped backwards, I was able to hear a small chant from 17’s mouth
“Burn, hellfire!”
As soon as the words were spoken, a fla to rank themselves! This is mutiny!
shi+t! It looks like these kids wereyet, and they get into a mutiny already!
But this is my house! My fortress! I already have several defensive mechanism that I prepared in advance!
The ot aimed towards me, I lift my foot, and smashed it on a spot next to the door
Boom!
“W, what the!”
A vibration that shook the entire roo out! Huhahaha! This is the power of a cultivator’s attack! …well, I actually just stepped on a spring trap below the room
The three ination, and concentration Unless one is a ician of considerable power, it is easy to break their concentration with a siic like this should…
Bang!
Easily be destroyed… eh…
A part of the wall flew off This ician though?
I was surprised, but thankfully, hts I crouched down, and took out a single dagger froer fleay!
A dagger that was in 46’s left hand was flung towards er with ease, looked at 46 and 102, and instantly formulated a plan in my head!
First of all, I’ll scare 46 with er…
Stab
Eh?
It felt like ht then When Imotion to scare 46, the boy accelerated forward towardshis left hand!
What the hell, did this kid just pull of so that even I, who lived for 30 years on earth and 40 years in this fantasy world, don’t dare attempt?
But this tiave up ht hand, and grabbed onto 102’s attack with my left hand
Kuaa! As I thought, that kid’s completely crazy! Hurts like hell!
I can’t be distracted by pain, though! My life’s rabbed the surprised 102 all the while holding onto his sword, and threw hihtly into the air, and sprayed the blood that came out of my left hand into 46’s eyes I then kicked his abdomen, and made him fly into the other two kids Ah, of course, I e
And before the longsword it the floor, I kicked it so that it lodged itself right in front of the kids, and walked away towards the kitchen all the while talking in a cold voice
“I’ll prepare food Clean the roo that time”
Ah, my hand seriously hurts
Chapter 1 I didn’t know back then
“Phew…”
After confirh
Honestly,But what am I supposed to do? If I don’t do that, I’d be seen as an idiot
