Almina and the blonde girl seemed like there was some kind of rivalry towards each other. This is what Yman suspected after noticing their brief staring contest.

Both of them were fairly strong. So it was just natural that each of them saw the other as a rival.

He decided to ignore them. After all, he was an unrelated person. He would be thanking Almina and this blonde girl later if he got another chance.

Anyway, he noticed another guy with the principal and Miss Blonde.

But Yman did not recognize him.

He had a suspicious smiling face.. Yman stared at him. But it seemed like he noticed his gaze and glanced at him and smiled.

|Even his eyes were closed?| He was surprised seeing the guy had closed eyes. Even his deity was laying on his head, seemed like, having a lazy life.

The principal beckoned to Instructor Goki to let the youngsters handle the monster. After all, if they could not produce results this year, the academy would be finished.

Instructor Goki doesn’t like the idea since that monster’s strength wasn’t a joke.

Yman understands Instructor Goki’s worry. After all, that thing was so big and it looked fierce.

But after saying that the two trainees with him were from a foreign country and each was strong. Goki felt curious.

In the end, he agreed to the principal. He was praying that nothing bad would come out.

Yman was surprised when Goki called him and asked if there’s really a chance to defeat the monster.

He honestly replied that the odds were 30-70%. And that if the instructors joined the fight, it would be 99-1%.

He reminded him that the instructors could not join the fight. Instructor Goki pleaded with him to behave and not do things that might harm his companions.

Yman scratched his face and wondered if he was really that bad from other’s perspectives?

When the instructor Goki announced that Yman would take the command, Kiko was furious.

He wasn’t expecting to be under that person’s command. For him, they don’t need him.

The other trainees who heard them were murmuring, saying that the instructor Goki favored that waste person more than Kiko.

The blonde girl also disagrees with having him as their commander.

Yman did not expect that even the beautiful blonde girl would disagree with him as the commander.

Her reason was, she doesn’t like being directed by a weaker person than her. For some reason, Almina was angry at the blonde girl and called her arrogant.

Well, Yman understands her arrogant behavior though. She had the right to be arrogant since she was strong.

He was just hoping that they would stop calling him weak already. Since it was not his fault that he was born weak.

He already did all that he could, in order to get stronger, but the reality was cruel.

The more he thought about it, the more reality reminded him that he was born a weak person.

No matter what he did, he was only a little stronger than a normal person.

He even trained himself every day, but still, the gap in strength between him and his peers becomes wider.

On the other hand, that other guy was just smiling with closed eyes, without saying anything. Yman was wondering when this guy would open his eyes.

Kiko becomes more furious when Almina agrees to Yman as the commander.

Although Kiko was furious, he could not change the instructor’s order. He tried to ask the principal but the principal shrugged it off saying that it wasn’t important who would take the command.

You just needed to do your best in fighting the monster and kill it when a chance presented itself.

Goki disagrees with him. In the battle, a fine commander was needed. Even with how strong the soldiers, if the commander was an idiot, there’s a big chance for failure.

Finally, Yman would take the lead. He went back to his carriage and asked the others if they wanted to join the fight.

At first, they were skeptical, but after he said that they could get some rare materials and that they could gain huge points, Bob excitedly agreed.

Bob agreed but he said that his magic type was body strengthening and that he was only at the base of it.

Yman said that it was fine as long as he could block the monster’s charge for once.

Bob nodded.

Next, he asked Chloe. She said that her magic was materializing a shockwave. And that she could only use it once daily, since like Bob, she was also at the base of it.

Yman thought for a while and asked her about the impact. She replied saying that it could lift a van but not completely sure.

He smiled and nodded.

Mai also joined them, but Brai chose not to go.

Yman already has the gist of the magic that Kiko, Almina, and blonde girl had. But he hopefully wished that Kiko invited his friends.

To his dismay, he did not. Maybe because Kiko was not the commander.

Yman thought this was bad if Kiko decided to mess up his strategy.

He tried asking the smiling guy, but he just smiled at him and did not answer.

And that blonde girl, he was sure that she would not follow his order fully.

He was having a headache thinking of them.

When the group was ready, Yman explained to them what to do.

“Miss Almina, sorry that you have more tasks assigned to you.”

Yman said his sorry to Almina beforehand.

“Tsk! If you feel sorry, then get lost, you jerk,” Kesha mumbled.

Chloe, Mai, and Bob frowned after hearing her words.

Almina seemed shy from her best friend’s words. She bowed slightly and said sorry to Yman, in her best friend’s stead. And she said that she would do everything she could.

While Almina was talking, Bob was having a happy face surrounded by flowers. Bob thought. Not only Almina was beautiful, but she also had a warm voice and a good personality. Unlike her friend.

The other trainees were watching in the distance together with the instructors and guards from the empire.

While they were approaching the monster, they noticed Yman without his deity. They asked him, but he scratched his face and told him she was with his sister.

“You have a sister?!” The others seemed surprised to hear him having a sister.

Yman nodded. He noticed Almina was glancing at him. But he chose to ignore it. It was embarrassing to be stared at by a beauty.

He felt anxious and might lose his focus in the fight.
