When he returned to the academy, it was already eleven o'clock, but Clemont, who was concerned about this matter, rushed to find His Highness Delia who was drinking in the office.
"Huh? You kid doesn't rest in the middle of the night, what do you want me to do? We agreed in advance that there will be no refunds after the goods have been sold!"
Looking at the wary-looking Delia, Clemont's head ached. Is this man the eldest son of Emperor Horta? How can any prince be like this?
"Your Highness Delia, I'm not here to buy second-hand armor! I have a good opportunity to make money here. Do you want to participate?"
It's not about the armor, then it's okay! Huh? What? Make money?
Delia, who was just about to take a sip of wine to calm down his shock, suddenly stood up from the armchair, walked to Clemont in two steps, held his shoulders and asked excitedly: "Boy, you didn't lie to me? You
What’s the money-making opportunity you’re talking about? Tell me!”
So, Clemont explained his idea again.
After listening for a long time, Delia looked at Clemont with a look of resentment and said: "Have you ever thought about it? What if there is not enough glass to make the glasses you mentioned?"
Regarding Delia's problem, how could Clemont not consider that although there is glass in this world, the output is not large and can only barely supply the needs of the nobles. This is a great restriction on the glasses business.
"Ahem, Your Highness Delia, you don't have to worry about this! As long as the glasses business can be done, the materials won't be a problem!"
Staring at Clemont's firm gaze, Delia thought for a while, and then said: "You make some samples for me tomorrow, and we will discuss it after I determine the value of the glasses you mentioned."
…
After returning to his own dormitory, Clemont took a comfortable bath and then started writing furiously in the study.
Now that you have remembered something, you must write it down in time, otherwise when your brain forgets it, you will really forget it!
Writing until the early hours of the morning, Clemont started his daily practice again. Since awakening his fighting spirit, morning exercises in the morning and practice in the evening have almost become his habit.
Even if you are late tonight, you still have to do what you have to do. This is the cultivation of a self-disciplined person.
Early the next morning, after finishing his morning exercises by the lake, Clemont stepped into the classroom. The classroom for the advanced class was on the other side of the college, almost a college away from their dormitory. This was why Clemont was almost late.
reason.
Not long after they sat down, a tall man in a knight's attire walked in. The fierce aura exuding from his body made everyone sit up straight in an instant.
Arriving at the center of the podium, the tall man glanced at everyone with his tiger eyes: "My name is Aldrich, and I am your combat skills teacher. From today on, I will be waiting for you here every morning. I hope you will not be late. Call your name now."
!"
"Harry Wilder!"
"arrive!"
…
After a moment, Aldrich nodded with satisfaction after calling his name.
"Very good! Now that we are all here, let's start today's morning class!"
Having said this, his tone changed, and then a stern voice sounded.
"Everyone has it! Goal, East District Training Ground, time, two minutes, one second late, load one hundred kilograms, circle the field twenty times!"
After hearing Aldrich's words, everyone in the classroom was stunned for a moment, and then jumped up like a bench burning their buttocks, and at the same time, their bodies lit up with a light of fighting spirit.
Looking at the students rushing out of the classroom, Aldrich grinned behind him and followed them slowly.
"Aldrich? Such a familiar name! Where have you heard it before?"
…
"You're stupid! Don't you even remember the name of Aldrich the Beheader?"
…
"God for God's sake, why is it this guy? It's over, this guy is an instructor, can we still go back alive?"
Everyone was running towards the training ground and wailing at the same time.
Aldrich the Skullbreaker, the leader of the Skullbreaker Knights, one of the four Star Knights in the Empire, is a leader among the war knights, and has a superb knight's sword. According to unreliable sources, his swordsmanship has reached the level of a master.
And his record is even more brilliant.
Ten years ago, he led the newly formed Skull Crusher Knights in a fierce battle with the Desert Lizards on the eastern border, eventually wiping out more than 30,000 enemies and capturing more than 2,000, including hundreds of the royal family of the Desert Lizards.
Six years ago, at the Seral Defense Line, he went deep into the enemy camp alone and beheaded dozens of Kaya Kingdom generals with his sword, earning him the title of Head-Beheader.
Although there were no legendary deeds about him for a long time after that, the title of Head-Beheader is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
"Hey, tell me, why did he come to be our instructor? Is there something wrong with the Skull Crusher Knights?"
"Don't make wild guesses. If something goes wrong with the Skull Crusher Knights, wouldn't we know about it?"
…
Soon, all the members of the training class appeared on the training ground without missing a beat, and formed their formation in an orderly manner.
"Huh? Mariana, why are you here?"
Not long after Clemont stood in line, he noticed a thin and petite person standing next to him. After taking a closer look, he realized that this person turned out to be Mariana.
"Shh!" Mariana heard this, turned her head, and playfully put her finger on her lips to make a silent gesture.
Now, Clemont was even more confused. A magician came to train with their group of knights. Could it be that he wanted to be Gandalf?
Seeing that the instructor had arrived, Clemont didn't ask any questions. He immediately put his hands on his back, stood on his feet, straightened his chest, and looked forward.
Mariana on the side also imitated Clemont's movements and stood upright with her slender body.
Walking to the front of the queue, Aldrich glanced at everyone, then grinned and said:
"Before the training begins, I hope you remember that from today on, in my class, you no longer have a noble surname, you are no longer a noble, you are just an ordinary soldier."
"Second point, if anyone dares to leave the class without permission, then he will no longer have to attend my class. I, Aldrich, do not teach undisciplined people!"
"The third point, and the most important point, in my class, I hope you are prepared to go out to perform missions at any time, and be prepared to be injured or even killed."
After saying this, the faces of some people in the team became extremely ugly.
Aldrich's words made them somewhat unacceptable for a while, especially the last point.
They came here just for gold plating. Who would have thought that gold plating would involve life and death!
"Haha, if you want to quit now, you can anytime!"
Aldrich glanced at these students with ugly faces. When he saw that no one came forward, he grinned again and said:
"I know you are now choosing between your family's face and your own life, but you have to think clearly. If your family's honor is gone, you can earn it back, but if your own life is gone, you have nothing.
Got it!"
After listening to Aldrich's meaningful words, these students who were a little shaken looked at each other, but in the end no one came forward.
For them, the honor of the family is their life. This is the concept that has been instilled in them since childhood. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, they cannot do anything that damages the honor of the family.
"Haha, good! Since no one quits, let's start the training!"
