15 – Reunion with the Scions (1/2)

Until I reach the entrance examination hall of the Academy of Heroes, I have no reason to concern myself with the scions of the main family.

I ignored them and headed towards the inner part of the lobby.

There were many other people in the lobby besides the scions.

I suppose all of them are also exam candidates.

The candidates’ age ranged from around ten to thirty years of age.

Many of them seemed to have already been acquainted with each other from the beginning, as they were having a friendly chat with one another.

Those candidates are most likely graduates from the Academy of Knights and the Academy of Sages.

The average age of the candidate was relatively high,

The scions seem younger in comparison.

And, apparently I was the youngest candidate in today’s exam.

「You disobeyed the eldest son of the Wolms main family, and shouldn’t you be bowing to us–?」

「Aa, because you disobeyed us of the Wolms main family!」

The scions raised their voices when mentioning ‘Wolms main family’.

In addition to bullying me, they are appealing their nobility to the surrounding candidates.

You’re embarrassing me, please stop.

Although I am simply Will now, in my past life I was the most famous Wolms.

When those who carry the Wolms name do something embarrassing, I feel embarrassed too.

「Hey, he just said Wolms」

「The young nobles whom both are said to have four pillars of guardian deity each?」

The appeal seems to have been effective. The candidates were growing astir.

It is surprising that those idiotic scions have four pillars of guardian deity.

The scions might actually have so-called talent.

I don’t know which gods they are, but there is a limit to recklessness.

They should’ve just given me the divine blessing instead of the scions.

「Oi! Stop ignoring me!」 yelled the fifteen year old.

It would be troublesome to fight them now, and there was no worth in replying.

「Is it a brawl?」

「It is pitiful to see a small child getting hurt just before the entrance exam」

The candidates were talking about us.

Hearing that, the scions’ mood seems to have improved.

「Oi, shitty brat! If you prostrate right now, I’ll overlook it this time」

「Aa, it won’t change the pain we’re going to inflict later, do your best to prostrate」

I tried to ignore and move on, but my shoulder was grabbed.

「Didn’t you hear me, shitty brat?」

「…there is no way I’m doing that」

They must not have expected to hear rebellious words out of my mouth.

The fifteen year old stared at me in puzzlement.

「……Huh?」

「What do you mean ‘huh’?! You’re the real shitty brat」

「Y-You son of a bitch」

「You guys are the shame of Wolms house. Do not tarnish your house name any more than this」

As I yelled back, the scions were in shock.

After a few moments, their faces turned deep red.

「There is no forgiveness for you!」

「I’m going to kill you!」

Abuse without good vocabulary skills, it was rather comforting.

If they get violent, I’ll just have to retaliate appropriately to protect myself.
